Claim One:
1. Apparatus for producing ultraviolet radiation and constituting or forming part of a quick-tanning sunlamp, comprising an irradiating unit including at least one source of ultraviolet radiation, means associated with said source and defining at least one substantially horizontal exit opening for ultraviolet radiation, said opening being disposed below said source, said source and said associated means being constructed and assembled to establish a high-density radiation field of predetermined area at a small distance from and below said exit opening, and means for intercepting at least the major percentage of wavelength bands of ultraviolet radiation below approximately 315 nm ahead of said field as considered in the direction of propagation of the radiation toward said field; and means for mounting said unit for substantially vertical movement toward and away from the body of a user of the apparatus to thereby adjust the position of said field relative to the body.
