Patent ID: 7446484

Claim:
A middle output electrodeless lighting system: comprising: a resonator having an inner space, wherein microwares are supplied to the inner space of the resonator and the resonator is configured to provide a resonance mode by shielding a discharge of the microwaves to an exterior of the inner space of the resonator, and wherein light generated by an electrodeless bulb is discharged to the exterior of the inner space of the resonator; the electrodeless bulb comprising a light emitting portion positioned within the inner space of the resonator to emit or generate light by plasmarizing light emitting materials, provided within the light emitting portion, with the microwaves supplied to the resonator, and a support which supports the light emitting portion such that the light emitting portion is positioned at a predetermined height within the inner space of the resonator; a mirror positioned at a rear side of the electrodeless bulb, wherein the support penetrates the mirror such that light emitted from the light emitting portion is reflected to a front side of the electrodeless bulb; and an initial lighting unit positioned at one side of the inner space of the resonator, wherein the initial lighting unit is positioned between a rear side of the light emitting portion of the electrodeless bulb and the mirror to enhance concentration of microwaves toward the electrodeless bulb such that an initial lighting of the electrodeless bulb is stabilized, wherein the initial lighting unit comprises an igniter having a cylindrical body portion, and wherein the igniter extends from one side of an inner circumferential surface of the resonator toward a center of the resonator so as to define a length of the initial lighting unit.
