Abstract
The electric reflector lamp has a reflector body with a light-beam shaping surface which comprises a body of revolution of a branch of a parabola which has been tilted towards the optical axis of the light-beam shaping surface. The light-beam shaping surface has superimposed plane axial lanes of which the number in a first zone remote from the light emission window is half that in a second zone adjacent said window. The axial lanes give the light-beam shaping surface cross-sections which are regular polygons. A light source is positioned on the optical axis, while the focus is inside this light source. The lamp has a universal burning position, a good mixing of the generated light, and a comparatively high luminous flux in the beam.
