Title:
HIGH VOLTAGE DISCHARGE LAMP OPERATION METHOD, OPERATION DEVICE, LIGHT SOURCE DEVICE, AND PROJECTION TYPE IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/010781
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
There is provided a method for operating a high voltage discharge lamp capable of increasing the service life of the discharge lamp. The operation method for turning ON the high voltage discharge lamp and maintaining the ON state is as follows. When the time elapse after the turning ON of the high voltage discharge lamp is within a predetermined condition (for example, 5 minutes or less have elapsed after turning ON), constant current control is performed if the lamp voltage is lower than switching voltage (here, a first voltage value V1) and constant power control is performed to maintain the lamp power at a power value W1 if the lamp voltage is equal to or above the switching voltage. After the predetermined condition (time elapse after turning ON is 5 minutes) is exceeded, the constant power control is performed by lowering the value of the switching voltage from the first voltage value V1 to the second voltage value V2. If the lamp voltage is equal to or above the switching voltage lowered. the lamp power is maintained at power value W1.
