Abstract
To aim at a prevention of an occurrence of failure in and an extension of the life span of an incandescent light bulb by reducing the impact of an external force, which is applied to an outer lead wire positioned outside a bulb, on the connections between the lead wire and another element when manufacturing the incandescent light bulb, especially in a socket mounting process. In an incandescent light bulb wherein a filament assembly having filaments and lead wires which support the filaments is sealed in a bulb, a shape which, being easy to bend, enables a reduction in the impact of an applied external force on another element is imparted to a region of a predetermined length which includes the boundary of the lead wires between inside and outside the bulb. For example, a region in which the cross-sectional shape of the lead wires is changed by crushing is provided.
