HOLDING CLAMP FOR POSITIONING GETTER IN CONTAINER IRRESPECTIVE OF CROSS-SECTIONAL SHAPE OF CONTAINER IN CLOSED VACUUM SYSTEM, AND GLASS CONTAINER SUCH AS HEAT-COLLECTING PIPE USED IN THE SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a holding clamp for positioning a getter in a container irrespective of the cross-sectional shape of the container in a closed vacuum system and to provide a glass container, in particular, such as a heat-collecting pipe used in the closed vacuum system.;SOLUTION: The holding clamp 1 for positioning a getter holding structure member 16 to hold getters in containers 18, 19 used in the vacuum system has a partial area 2 for supporting the structure member 16 and a partial area 3 for forming a supporting part 4 to prop and support the structure member 16 on the containers 18, 19. The partial area 2 is coupled with the supporting part 4 via a coupling part with high bending stiffness, the structure member 16 is press-contacted to the partial area for supporting the structure member 16 with elastic deformation, and the partial area and the supporting section 4 for supporting the structure member 16 are elastically formed like a spring so as to press-contact the supporting section 4 to inner surfaces of the containers 16, 19.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
