COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMP, AND GLASS MAIN BODY FOR THE SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a glass main body for a compact fluorescent lamp by further enlarging the surface area for light emission to be capable of enlarging an emitted light space angle. SOLUTION: A glass main body is composed of roughly parallel main body tubes 4, 5 connected to each other in series at their inner space. The glass main body is composed of at least one part A, for example, and this part A is composed of plural main body tubes 4, 5 connected to each other by tube curved parts 8. A free end 6 of the outer side main body tube 4 of the part A is sealed, and for the inner main body tube 5, an end part of it on the opposite side of dome parts 12 of the glass main body is protruded from a seal end of the two outside main body tubes 4. The parts are connected in series to each other by bridge members.
