As a result, the ultraviolet illuminance becomes higher at the time of flashing lighting, and at this time, the workpiece is irradiated with ultraviolet rays, so that the index of the workpiece is synchronized with or the workpiece index is synchronized and switched to By illuminating the high-ultraviolet illuminance, it is possible to reduce the size of the short-curved mercury bulb 4 and the lighting circuit, thereby reducing the cost. φ [Patent Document 1] [Patent Document 2] Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. SHO 60-05973 No. 3-A SUMMARY OF INVENTION [Problem to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the conventional pulse lighting method, the life of a short arc-shaped discharge bulb is followed. As the progress progresses, the ultraviolet illuminance will slowly decrease. The reason is the exhaustion of the discharge medium, the deterioration of the electrode, and the decrease of the transmittance of the glass. Therefore, as the life of the short arc discharge bulb progresses, the exposure time must be taken. Slow. It is extended slowly, but there is a problem of so-called control difficulty in order to cope with this. Moreover, it is known that a short-curved mercury bulb is not suitable for use. The structure of the flashing light is turned on. That is, generally, since the first lamp power is reduced as much as possible to maintain only the degree of arc discharge, the system is reduced to be smaller than the continuously fixed rated lamp power. The lamp power is increased to be larger than the rated lamp power. When the flashing lights, the electrode temperature will rise, the heat density of the airtight container will increase, and the airtight container will become -6 - (3) 1344320 It is easy to break. The present invention provides a short arc-shaped discharge bulb lighting device capable of suppressing the decrease of ultraviolet illuminance caused by the stomach of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb, the ultraviolet irradiation device using the same, and the ultraviolet irradiation method. - In addition to the above-mentioned main purpose, the present invention provides a short arc discharge which can prevent damage of the hermetic container by reducing the heat unevenness generated when the flashing lamp is turned on.

(4) 1344320 device. The ultraviolet irradiation method of the present invention is characterized in that ultraviolet rays are irradiated onto the workpiece, and the ultraviolet rays are generated in a relatively large diameter of the short arc discharge bulb lighting device described in any one of claims 1 to 3. The first cycle of electricity. [Effect of the Invention] φ According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a short arc-shaped discharge bulb lighting device capable of compensating for the decrease in ultraviolet illuminance caused by the progress of the life of the short-arc discharge lamp, the ultraviolet irradiation device using the same, and the ultraviolet irradiation method . That is, in the 'first invention', as the life of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb progresses, when the electrode tip end causes the distance between the electrodes to become large due to consumption, and the voltage rises, the lamp power input due to the constant current control gradually increases. To compensate for the decrease in ultraviolet illuminance caused by the progress of the short arc discharge bulb. Further, in the second invention, as the life of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb progresses, the power supplied by the fixed-power control type lamp is gradually increased, thereby compensating. With the progress of the life of the short-arc discharge bulb The decrease in ultraviolet illuminance. Further, according to the present invention, in addition to the above, in order to optimize the structure of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb, a thermal insulation film is provided at a predetermined position, and the cathode and the anode are further electrically connected to the first and second bulbs in the flashing lighting. The length, cross-sectional area, and surface area are set within a predetermined range, so that a short arc-shaped discharge bulb that can reduce the heat unevenness generated by the short arc-shaped discharge bulb and prevent the airtight container from being damaged can be provided. A lamp device, an ultraviolet-8-(5) 1344320 line irradiation device, and an ultraviolet irradiation method using the same. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 to 3 show a first type of a short arc-shaped spotlight device for carrying out the present invention, FIG. 1 is a circuit block diagram, FIG. 2 is a front view of an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp of a discharge bulb, and FIG. A waveform diagram of the lamp power input to a φ-shaped discharge bulb. The short arc-shaped discharge bulb lighting device of this type has a short arc bulb S H L and a lighting circuit 〇C. [About short arc discharge bulb SHL] Short arc discharge bulb As shown in Fig. 2, it is provided with a translucent airtight container 1, a crucible, a crucible, an outer lead structure 3, 4, and a discharge medium. The translucent airtight container 1' is formed of a vibrating quartz glass. For example, it has a surrounding portion 1a and a pair of sealing portions lb, lb. A discharge space 1 c is formed inside # 丨a. The sealing portion 1b is airtight. The translucent airtight container 1 is simultaneously placed in the discharge space lc of one of the counter electrodes 2K, 2A to be described later. When the translucent airtight container is made of quartz glass, the sealing portion 1b is internally provided with a sealing metal foil (not shown), for example, in an airtight manner. Further, a sealing metal such as a molybdenum foil is used, and in order to obtain a desired current capacity, a plurality of sheets connected in a parallel state are used. The pair of electrodes 2K, 2A' are made of a fire-resistant and electrically conductive material such as tungsten (W), ruthenium (R e ), or a tungsten-rhenium alloy. The short arc of the bulb is short-arc-shaped in the SHL, and the electrode-glass is surrounded by a sealed portion. If the immersion foil is used as a piece of metal or metal, then -9- (6) 1344320 is used for DC lighting. It is composed of a cathode 2 K and an anode 2 A. Further, the pair of electrodes 2K, 2A are spaced apart from each other by an electrode smaller than the inner diameter of the surrounding portion 1a, for example, 2.8 mm, and the tip ends thereof are arranged to face each other at intervals. The discharge medium is sealed with a short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL. There is a known discharge medium. In the case of a short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL is an ultra-high pressure mercury bulb, it is composed of mercury and a rare gas. In addition, mercury evaporates when exposed to light and exhibits an ultra-high pressure mercury vapor state. The rare gas φ body, for example, is composed of argon gas and functions as a starting gas and a buffer gas. The external lead structures 3, 4 are used to connect the pair of electrodes 2K, 2A to the lighting circuit and as a means of receiving electricity. Further, when the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL is mounted inside the ultraviolet irradiation apparatus, the external lead structures 3, 4 can be used as the mounting means. At this time, the outer lead structures 3, 4 can be constructed in a ferrule configuration as shown. In this type, the bolt portion 3b (which protrudes from the ferrule portion 3a of the outer lead structure 3 to the right side in Fig. 2) can be short by using the support of a screw cap (not shown). The arc discharge bulb SHL is mounted inside the ultraviolet irradiation device. Further, it is also configured to be connected to the negative electrode side of the output end of the lighting circuit. On the other hand, the outer lead structure 4 is provided with a flexible coated conductor 4b which extends outward from the ferrule portion 4a. Further, a connection terminal 4c is disposed at the front end of the covered conductor 4b. Further, the outer lead structures 3, 4, although not shown, extend to the sealing portions 1b, 1b and are welded to the sealing metal foil. -10- 1344320 Thus, when lighting, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL causes ultra-high pressure mercury vapor discharge inside the light-transmissive container 1 and generates an ultraviolet short-arc discharge bulb SHL, which is allowed to be outside the above-mentioned main structure. To add the following composition. 1 (About the cathode insulating film 5) The cathode insulating film 5 is a means for preventing silver from adhering to the cathode 2K for keeping the cathode 2K warm. Further, it is mainly composed of a φ film of platinum or the like formed on the outer surface of the sealing portion on the cathode 2 K side. Further, if mercury adheres to the cathode 2, the starting voltage is too high or the lighting is poor. 2. (About the anode insulating film 6) The anode insulating film 6 is a means for increasing the temperature of the airtight container 1. Further, for example, it is composed of a vaporized film (formed on the outer surface of the airtight 1) such as platinum which is opposed to the main base end portion of the impotence. Further, by accelerating the temperature rise of the hermetic container 1, the rise of the light beam becomes faster. 3. (About trigger line 7) Trigger line 7 is a means to increase the potential gradient near # at start-up to improve the start of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL. Further, for example, the base end is connected to the outside of the outer lead 3' of the cathode 2, and extends to the outside of the surrounding portion 1a, and the leading end is wound around the portion of the surrounding portion 1a of the sealing portion 1b on the side adjacent to the anode 2A. [About the lighting circuit 〇 C ] The lighting circuit OC is a short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL point circuit means while intermittently changing the input lamp power. As described in Fig. 3, the above intermittent operation is performed by alternately repeating the supply of the first period of the relatively large power 与 and the second period Τ 2 of supplying the relatively small power L by the constant control. In the second-order gas, the water is stopped, for example, steamed to generate a current T1 that accelerates the i 2 A container and the upper electrode movable structure is connected to the lamp. The period -11 - (8) 1344320 T2 can be a constant current. Control, or set the power control circuit. Further, the lighting circuit OC sets at least the lamp power input between the first cycle Τ 1 to constant current control. Therefore, in this type, the circuit OC uses the DC constant current control circuit CCR, and supplies the constant current obtained therefrom to the short arc discharge bulb SHL. When the second power control circuit is performed, the fixed power control circuit is connected in parallel and added to the DC constant current control circuit CCR, so that the φ control circuit can be switched to each cycle and connected to the short arc. Formed by the way of SHL discharge. Further, in order to supply DC power to the input terminal of the DC constant current control circuit, the rectifier circuit RC is used to perform rectification of the AC voltage from the AC power source. Further, the lighting circuit OC further controls the lamp power output from the DC constant current control circuit CCR to be controlled in each cycle by intermittently changing the power of the lamp input to the short arc bubble SHL. The way it is done. In addition, the period of the intermittent change is set to be appropriately set according to the ultraviolet irradiation. For example, the first and second periods can be set to 10 right, respectively. [About the action of the short arc discharge bulb lighting device] This type of short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL is charged with intermittent bulb power as shown in Fig. 3 for continuous lighting. In the phase Τ 1 input phase power Η, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL increases the ultraviolet output, if the ultraviolet ray generated in the first period Τ1 is used as the exposure period, the end period or the string When the bulb CCR AC electric light is used, it is said that it is in the middle of the second, and the change is large. Because of the -12 - (9) 1344320 purpose, UV irradiation can be performed in a short time and efficiently. In the relatively small power L input in the second period T2, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb S H L maintains the lighting state while reducing the ultraviolet output. Therefore, the second period Τ2 can be made to wait for the standby period of the next ultraviolet ray. In this way, the power consumption during standby can be minimized. However, as described above, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL will gradually deplete and φ deteriorate due to the discharge of the discharge medium, the electrode 2 Κ, 2 Α due to splashing, etc., and the transmittance of the translucent airtight container decreases as the life progresses. For reasons of this, the ultraviolet illuminance is gradually lowered. When the electrode is deteriorated, the distance between the electrodes of the pair of electrodes 2 K, 2 A gradually increases. As a result, the bulb voltage rises. Since the 'lighting circuit OC' is subjected to constant current control in the first period τ 以 to light the short arc-shaped discharge bulb S H L , the bulb current can be maintained constant. As a result, the bulb power input to the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL gradually increases as the life progresses. As a result, the amount of ultraviolet ray is gradually increased, and the ultraviolet illuminance of this portion is increased. - Therefore, the decrease in the above-mentioned ultraviolet illuminance and the increase in the ultraviolet illuminance generated by the constant current control cancel each other out, and as a result, the decrease in the ultraviolet illuminance due to the progress of the life is suppressed by the constant current control. [Examples] It is shown in the first form of Fig. 1. -13- (10)1344320 Short arc discharge bulb (Ultra high pressure mercury bulb) Translucent airtight container: Inner diameter 20mm of the surrounding part A pair of electrodes: Distance between electrodes 2.8mm Discharge medium · Mercury and Ar (argon) gas Lighting circuit (switching the following circuit.)

Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 are graphs showing changes in lamp power and ultraviolet illuminance versus short arc-shaped discharge time of the electric bulb, Fig. 4 is a view of the present invention, and Fig. 5 is a comparative example. In addition, in the figure, the horizontal axis is the lighting time (relative to 値), the left side of the vertical axis is the lamp power (relative 値), and the right side is the illuminance (relative φ 値). Further, the curve LP in the figure is the lamp power and il is the ultraviolet illuminance. The comparative example is lit by a DC constant power control circuit CWR instead of the DC constant current control circuit CCR of the present invention. In the invention shown in Fig. 4, the lamp power is passed as the lighting time passes; /j is gradually increased, and the ultraviolet illuminance is kept substantially constant. On the other hand, in the comparative example shown in Fig. 5, although the bulb power is fixed, the ultraviolet illuminance gradually decreases by # as the lighting time passes. Figure 6 is a block diagram showing the second type of the short arc discharge bulb lighting device used to practice the present invention. The short arc-shaped discharge bulb lighting device of this type differs from the first type in that it has a DC constant power control circuit CPR and a control means C C for gradually increasing the electric power. That is, the DC constant power control circuit CPR is used to replace the constant current control circuit CCR of the first type, but the monomer has the problem of the above comparative example. -15- (12) 1344320 Therefore, in this type, the constant power output from the DC constant power control circuit CPR is gradually increased by the control of the control means CC as the life of the short arc discharge bulb SHL progresses. The way it is composed. Further, the above control system is realized by, for example, gradually increasing the reference potential during power control. In this way, since the lamp power is gradually increased as the life progresses, the present mode also exhibits the same function as the first type, and it is possible to suppress the decrease in the ultraviolet illuminance caused by the progress of the life. 7 to 10 are views showing a third embodiment of a short arc-shaped discharge bulb device for carrying out the present invention. FIG. 7 is a front view of the entire short arc-shaped discharge bulb device, and FIG. 8 is a front view and a side view showing the enlarged cathode. Fig. 9 is a front view and a side view showing an enlarged anode, and Fig. 10 is a waveform diagram for explaining lamp power of flashing lighting. In the drawings, the same portions as those in Fig. 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and their description will be omitted. In this type, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL has the following DC lighting Φ type: airtight container 1, cathode 2K, anode 2A, discharge medium, external. Lead conductors 3, 4, and insulating films 5, 6. At least the main portion of the hermetic container 1' is ultraviolet permeable, for example, formed of quartz glass. Next, the surrounding portion 1a and the pair of sealing portions lb, lb are provided. A discharge space is formed inside the surrounding portion 1a. The surrounding portion 1a is allowed to have an appropriate shape, for example, a spindle shape in the tube axis direction. Further, an exhaust front portion EX is formed at a portion of the side surface of the surrounding portion 1a. The exhaust front portion EX protrudes from the surrounding portion la toward the outside to form a umbilical shape 'to exhaust the inside of the surrounding portion la, and is sealed in a -16 - (13) 1344320 discharge medium' will be manufactured in a short arc shape When the bulb SHL is formed, the pre-welded exhaust pipe is formed. The pair of sealing portions 1b, 1b extend from the both ends in the tube axis direction of the surrounding portion 1a in the tube axis direction, and hermetically seal the hermetic container 1 to assist in supporting the cathode 21C and the anode 2A, which will be described later. It is enclosed in an airtight container 1. More specifically, when the hermetic container 1 is made of quartz glass, the sealing portion φ 1 b is, for example, embedded in the inside of the sealing metal foil 1 C in an airtight manner. Further, the sealing metal foil 1c is preferably made of, for example, a molybdenum foil, and in order to obtain a desired current capacity, one or a plurality of sheets, for example, two sheets, are welded in parallel to the end portion of the electrode base. The cathode 2K and the anode 2A are formed of a metal having fire resistance and conductivity, such as tungsten (W), ruthenium (Re), or a tungsten-rhenium alloy as a main component. Further, the cathode 2K and the anode 2A are disposed such that the distance between the electrodes smaller than the inner diameter of the surrounding portion 1 is, for example, 2 mm, so that the front ends are disposed on the tube axis in opposite directions, and a short arc is caused between the electrodes. The cathode 2K, as shown in Figs. 8(a) and (b), is composed of a cathode main portion K1, an intermediate portion K2, a base end portion K3, and a coil portion Ck. The cathode main portion K1 has a relatively small diameter as known because the ion current flowing in the bulb lighting is small. Next, in order to stabilize the position of the cathode point in the lamp, the front end portion is formed into a tapered shape as is known. The intermediate portion K2 is a shaft portion that integrally supports the cathode main portion K1 at the front end. The base K3 is honed to a flat shape to be easily welded to the sealing metal foil ic. The coil portion Ck' is wound around the intermediate portion Κ2 at a position that is retracted by an appropriate distance from the front end of the cathode main -17-(14) 1344320 portion K1, as desired. Next, a fine wire having a refractory metal having electron-emitting radiation such as ruthenium tungsten, such as a dopant-containing radioactive substance, is formed. By providing the coil portion Ck, it is possible to form a cathode point only at the coil portion Ck at the time of starting, and to shift to the end portion of the cathode main portion after an appropriate delay. Thereby, the loss of the cathode 2K can be reduced. Further, as the constituent metal of the cathode main portion K1 and the coil portion Ck, the above-mentioned refractory metal of an electron-emitting material such as ruthenium, alumina, magnesia, φ or zirconia may be used. On the other hand, as shown in Figs. 9(a) and 9(b), the anode 2A is composed of the anode main portion A1, the intermediate portion A2, and the base portion A3. Since the anode main portion A1 has a large ion flow in the bulb lighting, it is configured to promote heat dissipation, as is known, by a large diameter and an increased surface area. The intermediate portion A2 is a shaft portion that integrally supports the anode main portion A1 at the front end. The base A3 is honed to a flat shape to be easily welded to the sealing metal foil 1 c. Further, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL of the present invention has a cathode of 2 K. On the upper side, the anode 2 is located at a lower side of the cathode 2Κ. Light down. In the case of the present embodiment, in addition to the above configuration, in order to improve the balance of the temperature distribution of the hermetic container 1, the center of the distance G between the electrodes is set to the anode 2A side from the center position of the length from the tube axis direction of the surrounding portion la. It consists of a way of displacement within a given distance. The discharge medium is mainly composed of mercury and rare gases. Further, the mercury evaporates at the time of lighting and exhibits a high-pressure mercury vapor state of, for example, several tens of atmospheres. The rare gas is composed, for example, of argon gas, and functions as a starter -18-(15) 1344320 gas and a buffer gas. The external lead conductors 3, 4 are used to connect the cathode 2K and the anode 2A to the lighting circuit OC and are electrically connected, and are connected to the cathode 2K and the anode 2A through the sealing metal foil lc. Further, when the short arc-shaped discharge mercury bulb SHL is assembled inside the ultraviolet irradiation device, the external lead conductors 3, 4 can be used as the mounting means. At this time, although the illustration is omitted, the outer lead conductors 3, 4 may have a ferrule structure. By attaching the socket structure portion to a lamp holder (not shown) at a predetermined position, the short arc-shaped discharge mercury lamp SHL can be attached to a machine such as a built-in ultraviolet irradiation device. The heat insulating film 5 is made of a coating film of platinum or gold or the like, and is formed on the outer surface of the airtight container 1 as shown in Fig. 7, and prevents the low temperature of the lower portion of the airtight container in which the anode 2A is disposed. More specifically, as shown in Fig. 7, the heat insulating film 5 is formed on the outer surface of the airtight container, which is located from a position opposite to a portion lower than the front end portion of the anode 2A, to the lower side. Sealing part 〖b upper part. • The thermal insulation film 6 is formed on the outer surface of the exhaust front portion EX. Before exhausting. The sinking portion EX protrudes from the surrounding portion la toward the outside to form a umbilical shape. Thus, since the exhaust front portion is easily cooled and the temperature of the surrounding portion la is lowered, the exhaust front portion EX is kept warm by the heat insulating film 6. Further, the above-mentioned heat insulating film 6 can be formed by a coating film such as platinum or gold. The short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL, in addition to the above-mentioned basic structure, can be provided with a cathode insulating film as desired (not shown in Fig. 7:). The cathode heat insulating film is a means for preventing the mercury 2 from adhering to the cathode 2K for keeping the cathode 2K warm. Secondly, it is mainly composed of a coating film of platinum or the like formed on the outer surface of the sealing portion on the side of the cathode 2K. -19- 1344320 The voltage is constant and the K 2 is extremely cloudy with silver attached. When the water is not ‘lights outside this point or ο Gao Chengsheng, you can configure the trigger line as you like. The trigger line is used to increase the potential gradient near the electrode at start-up to improve the start of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL. Next, for example, the base end is connected to the outer lead structure 3 of the cathode 2K, the middle portion is adjacent to the outer surface of the surrounding portion 1a, and the front end is wound around the portion of the surrounding portion 1a of the sealing portion 1b adjacent to the anode 2A side. φ Next, the lighting circuit OC will be described. The lighting circuit OC supplies the first bulb power Wa and the second bulb power Wb as shown in Fig. 10 alternately and intermittently to the cathode 2K and the anode 2A of the short arc discharge bulb SHL. The first bulb power Wa is supplied to T2 at the time of normal lighting, and is relatively small. For example, it is set to 700W» In addition, T2 is usually the standby time when lighting, and is the period of short-arc discharge during the standby time before ultraviolet irradiation. In the present invention, the first bulb power Wa can be set in the range of 200 to 10000W. #第二灯泡电源Wb, when T1 is additionally supplied to the first light bulb power Wa, the sum of the first and second bulb powers Wa+Wb is relatively large. For example, when the second bulb power Wb is 300 W, the sum of the first and second bulb powers Wa + Wb is 1 000 W. That is, T 1 is generally an ultraviolet irradiation time when the flashing is lighted, and is a period in which the ultraviolet light output during the ultraviolet irradiation operation time is increased, and the high output lighting is performed. In the present embodiment, the second bulb power Wb is set to be smaller than the first bulb power W a and can be set within a range of 1 〇 〇 to 5000 W. -20- (17) 1344320 Further, the ratio of the first bulb power Wa to the second bulb power Wb Wa / Wb, the time interval between the normal lighting T2 and the flashing T1 time T1 / T1, and the usual lighting The time interval between T2 and T1 at the time of flashing light varies depending on the application and operation mode of the ultraviolet ray, and the following shows the standard of 槪. The ratio of the first bulb power Wa to the second bulb power Wb, Wa / Wb, is generally in the range of 1.8 to 4.0, preferably in the range of 2.0 to 3.0. φ The time interval between T2 and T1 at the time of flashing is T2/T1, which is not particularly limited in the present invention, but is generally 0.1 to 10, preferably 0.15 to 7.0. Further, the usual lighting time T2 and the flashing lighting time T1 are generally 0.1 second to 2 minutes, preferably 0.1 second to 10 seconds. In one embodiment, the normal lighting time T2 is 2 seconds, and the flashing lighting time T1 is 10 seconds. In other embodiments, the usual lighting time T2 and the flashing lighting time T 1 are both 2 seconds. Further, the circuit configuration of the lighting circuit OC is a configuration in which the constant current control is performed at least for the flashing lighting time, or the power control shape of the electric power is gradually increased in accordance with the life of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb. Next, the operation of the short arc-shaped mercury discharge bulb device of this embodiment will be described. The short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL described above generates ultraviolet rays having a wavelength of 365 nm mainly due to discharge of ultra-high pressure mercury vapor inside the light-transmitting sealed container 1 when lighting. Further, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL is intermittently flashed as shown in Fig. 10 by the lighting circuit OC. That is, in the time T2 of the first bulb power Wa supplied from the lighting circuit OC, the short arc-shaped discharge lamp -21(13) 1344320 bubble SHL is supplied with the first lamp power to cause the arc discharge to continue, but the light thereof The output is small. However, at this time, there is no problem in the standby state in which the light irradiation operation is not performed. Next, in time T1, when the bulb power supplied from the lighting circuit OC is switched and the second bulb power Wb is added to the first bulb power to supply the increased bulb power Wa + Wb, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb The SHL immediately moves to the enhanced lighting and flashes. As a result, since the ultraviolet light output is increased, it is preferable to perform light irradiation. φ In this embodiment, since the heat insulating film 5, 6 is formed on the outer surface of the low temperature portion of the hermetic container 1 in the short arc discharge bulb SHL lighting, the temperature distribution of the airtight container 1 is improved, when the flashing is performed The heat unevenness generated is relatively small, and the airtight container 1 is not easily broken. In this way, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL and the lighting circuit OC can be miniaturized by flashing lighting, and a highly reliable short-arc mercury mercury bulb device can be obtained. Hereinafter, other aspects of carrying out the invention will be described. The second form of the short curved mercury bulb device used to practice the present invention is as follows. That is, in addition to the configuration of the first embodiment described above, as shown in FIG. 1, when the length of the metal foil ic portion extending from the cathode 2K is D1 (mm), the portion of the metal foil lc is sealed from the anode 2A. The short-arc discharge bulb s HL of the fourth form when the length is 02 (mm), the first lamp power of the normal lighting time is Wa (w), and the second power added when the flashing is light is Wb (W) The system simultaneously satisfies the formula 1 · Wa/60 <Dl <(Wa + Wb)/5 Number 2: Wa/50 <D2 <(Wa + Wb)/4 -22- (19) 1344320 The fourth aspect described above is applicable to a short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL. The bulb power Wa is 200 to 10000 W, and the second bulb power is in the range of 100 to 5 000 W. Best time. Further, in the embodiment and the form, D1 and D2 are set so as not to be welded to the sealing metal foil 1. * In the above formulas 1 and 2, when the lower limit is less than or equal to 値, the electrode temperature at the time of φ lamp increases excessively, and the glass of the sealing portion 1b becomes large, which causes the hermetic container 1 to be easily broken. Further, if the electrode 2K or 2A is too long at the upper limit, the short arc bubble SHL is increased in size. If the flash lamp is turned on in the range of the above formulas 1 and 2, and the cathode 2K and the anode 2A are within the allowable range in the lighting, the consumption of the electrode 2K or 2A can be suppressed, and the black of the dense container 1 can be suppressed. The long-arc discharge bulb SHL has a long life and prevents damage of the hermetic container 1. The fifth aspect of the short arc-shaped mercury bulb device embodying the present invention, that is, in addition to the configuration of the first embodiment described above, in FIG. 7, the length of the portion of the sealed metal case lc of the extension 2K is D1 (mm) When the length of 2 A is D2 (mm), the first bulb Wa of the normal lighting time, and the second electric power added when flashing is Wb, the morphological discharge bulb SHL simultaneously satisfies the formula 1: Wa/ 60 <D1 <(Wa + Wb)/l 2 Equation 2: Wa/50 <D2 <(Wa + Wb)/10 The first Wb is as follows. c Overlap Flash point Hot unevenness 値 Above the discharge lamp, the temperature will prevent gas and can be as follows.

The temperature of the electrode at the time of the lamp is excessively increased, and the heat unevenness of the glass of the sealing portion 1b is increased, and the hermetic container 1 is easily broken. Further, when the upper limit is 値 or more, since the electrode 2K or 2A is too long, the short arc discharge lamp φ bubble SHL is increased in size. When the flashing lighting is performed with relatively small lamp powers specified in Equations 3 and 4, if within the range of Equations 1 and 2 above, the cathode 2K and the anode 2A are turned on even if the flashing is performed. The temperature in the range is within the allowable range, and the consumption of the electrode 2K or 2A can be suppressed, and the blackening of the hermetic container 1 can be prevented, the life of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL can be lengthened, and the damage of the hermetic container 1 can be prevented. Therefore, the third form is applicable to the first and second bulb powers Wa, such as the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL, in the range of Equations 3 and 4, • a relatively small short arc-shaped discharge bulb , to generalize the range when flashing lights.

Further, when the upper limit is 値 or more, the electrode 2K or 2A is too long, so that the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL is enlarged. When the flashlight is turned on in the middle of the lamp power specified in Equations 3 and 4, the temperature of the cathode 2K and the anode 2A in the lighting is performed even in the range of the above Equations 1 and 2, even if the flashing is performed. In the allowable range, the consumption of the electrode 2K or 2A can be suppressed, and the blackening of the hermetic container 1 can be prevented, the life of the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL can be lengthened, and the damage of the hermetic container 1 can be prevented. ® Therefore, the fourth form is suitable for use in short arc-shaped discharge bulbs.

Fig. 12 and Fig. 12 are views showing an embodiment of an ultraviolet irradiation apparatus embodying the present invention, Fig. 11 is a front sectional view, and Fig. 12 is a left sectional view. In the drawings, the same portions as those in the drawings are denoted by the same reference numerals, and their description is omitted. In this embodiment, the ultraviolet irradiation device includes the ultraviolet irradiation device body 1 1 and the short arc discharge bulb lighting device 12 . • 28 - (25) 1344320 The ultraviolet irradiation unit body 1 1 is composed of a part of the short-arc discharge bulb lighting device 1 2 removed by an ultraviolet irradiation device. In the present embodiment, the ultraviolet irradiation apparatus main body 1 1 includes an optical system 1 1 a, a dimming mechanism nb' optical light valve 11c, a cooling mechanism lid, an irradiation port lie, and a casing 1 1 f. The optical system 1 1 a is configured by collecting the ultraviolet rays radiated from the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL toward the lower portion and using the optical means # derived from the irradiation port lle. Next, it is composed of an elliptical mirror 1 1 a 1 , a first mirror Ha2, a light guide 1 U3, and a second mirror 1 la4. The elliptical mirror 1 lal is such that the ultraviolet rays radiated from the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL are reflected on the reflecting surface and collected downward. The first mirror U a2 deflects the collected ultraviolet light to deflect it by 90 ° and then travels in a horizontal direction. The light guide body 1 1 a3 guides the ultraviolet rays traveling in the horizontal direction to the outside of the casing Ilf by passing through the dimming mechanism lib and the optical light valve 11c which will be described later. The second mirror 11 a4 reflects the ultraviolet light introduced from the other end of the light guide body 11 a3 and deflects it 90° downward. The ultraviolet rays which are deflected downward are led out from the above-mentioned irradiation port 1 1 a 1 and then irradiated to a workpiece (not shown). The dimming mechanism 1B is adjusted as desired from the irradiation port e and irradiated to a workpiece (not shown). Further, the dimming mechanism 11b is constituted by a rotating disk which is formed by concentric circles in a plurality of openings having different opening areas. The opening of the rotating disk is selected to select the desired opening area. Dimming. The optical light valve 11c' causes the ultraviolet light passing through the dimming mechanism lib to pass through -29-(26) 1344320 (on), to be incident on the light guide body 1 1 a3, or to be blocked (incident on the light guide body 1 1 a3). Therefore, if the ultraviolet light is to be pre-opened, if it is not irradiated to the workpiece, the cooling mechanism 1 1 d is preliminarily exhausted, and the inside of the outer casing 1 1 f is exhausted. Dust and the like are discharged from the inside of the ultraviolet irradiation device to the periphery of the contamination. In a manner, the inside of the casing is exhausted and discharged to the pipe groove 13. Further, although not shown, a mechanism for cooling the φ bulb SHL may be added to blow air to the outside of the anode optically airtight container. The short arc-shaped mercury bulb is used. The outer casing 1 1 f is used for accommodating the above-mentioned various means and the short-lighting device 12 at a predetermined position inside. The short arc-shaped discharge bulb lighting device 1 2, as shown in Fig. 1 The discharge tube SHL of the first and second types for carrying out the present invention is used, and the tube axis is vertically suspended from the outer casing portion. Further, it is provided to adjust the position of the tube shaft and construct 1 1 g. , explaining the use of the above ultraviolet irradiation device The type of the external line irradiation method, that is, the short arc-shaped discharge bulb SHL is in the first period T1, and since the system is synchronously turned on, the ultraviolet rays are irradiated from the irradiation port 11al. From the irradiation port 1 1 a in the first period T1 1 As described above, since the ultraviolet illuminance of the short-arc discharge bulb SHL is lowered, it is not necessary to change the ultraviolet cloak, and it is not turned off when the workpiece is closed. And let it cool, externally, and instead of the short arc-shaped discharge shown in Figure 8, the SHL is suitable for cold-arc discharge bulbs as shown in Figure 2. Short-arc 1 if the internal optical axis is adjusted to implement the implementation, the optical light valve n C is irradiated to the ultraviolet light not shown, and the life is suppressed to the line irradiation time, etc. -30- (27) 1344320 Trouble control's or easier to control even when you want to control it. Further, the variation of the ultraviolet irradiation treatment is small, and a good ultraviolet irradiation effect can be obtained. The present invention can be applied to semiconductor exposure "hardening of ultraviolet curable resin, light cleaning, etc., and irradiation of ultraviolet rays.
