Abstract
The electrodeless low pressure discharge lamp has a lamp vessel (1) which is fused to the flared portion (6) of a flared tube (5) which extends into the lamp vessel. A power coupler (20) is demountably secured to the lamp vessel and comprises a soft magnetic core (21), surrounded by an electric coil (22), and a heat conducting element (23) in the core. This element is a solid rod, the coil (22) is present in a region (8) adjacent the flared portion (6) of the flared tube (5), and an elastic material couples the rod (23) laterally to the core (21). The construction of the lamp avoids the use of an expensive heat pipe as a heat conducting element.
