The specific embodiment
Below, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.Determined the present invention does not cause restriction to following embodiment to claims.In addition, all feature combinations settling mode not necessarily of the present invention of explanation in the present embodiment is necessary.
The light conductor of the line-illuminating device of present embodiment, the light conductor shape with shown in Figure 4 is identical basically, it is characterized in that, has the projection structure of rectangle between light guide section and light out part, to replace original wedge-shaped projection.So in the present embodiment, has following feature: on the basis of in the past line-illuminating device, near near added control outgoing light quantity the light guide section and/or the light out part neotectonics.
embodiment 1 〉
Figure 1A, Figure 1B represent the example of the line-illuminating device of embodiments of the invention 1.Figure 1A represents the cutaway view of substantial middle portion of length direction of light conductor 100 of the line-illuminating device of embodiment 1.This light conductor 100 can generally be divided into light guide section 101 and the light out part 102 that extends along its length direction.Near the end face of at least one side of this light conductor 100 (below be called incidence surface 110 (Figure 1B)), configuration is as the LED 120 of light source.Light guide section 101 has the light that acceptance is penetrated near the LED the outside that is configured in incidence surface 110 120, its length direction along light conductor 100 is conducted, and launch the function of these light to light out part 102.Light out part 102 is accepted light from light guide section 101, from the light-emitting face of the part that is set at light out part 102, penetrates light along predetermined direction.Thus, the reading object of original copy part is by the illumination of wire ground.
Light conductor 100 shown in Figure 1A forms the projection 103 of the rectangular configuration with certain altitude in the boundary portion of light guide section 101 and light out part 102, and then, be provided with wedge-shaped projection 104 (the following wedge portion that slightly is called) in the position relative with this projection 103.By this projection 103 and wedge portion 104, have the effect of light quantity control valve, identical with routine in the past idea.But in present embodiment 1, the section shape that makes projection 103 is a rectangle, thereby controls the conduction of the light between light guide section 101 and the light out part 102 more effectively.In addition, about wedge portion 104,, control the light quantity that enters into light out part 102 by according to the height apart from change wedge portion 104 on the length direction of light conductor 100 and light source.Particularly, near the substantial middle of the length direction of light conductor 100, make the height of wedge portion 104 the highest, it is highly reduced at incidence surface and terminal part.In addition, about projection 103, it is with respect to the angle of the bottom surface of light out part 102 sides, than the angle little (being preferably acute angle) with respect to the bottom surface of light guide section 101 sides.
Figure 1B is the brief strabismus map of the integral body of this light conductor 100 of expression.
This light conductor 100 is formed by transparent medium, advances by the identical shaped projection 103 that is formed with from the incidence surface 110s to terminal part, and wedge portion 104 forms low near the both ends, the highest near central authorities.
Fig. 2 is the cutaway view of light conductor 100 that is used to illustrate the effect of projection 103.
In Fig. 2, to compare with the example in the past shown in Fig. 5 A, Fig. 5 B, exiting surface one side of projection 103 has the wall with longitudinal direction angle.Thus, have following effect: block the light 201 that directly enters with low angle to light out part 102 from light guide section 101, and, block the light 202 that turns back to light guide section 101 from light out part 102.Like this, in case the light that causes entering into light out part 102 because of the 1st bottom surface 210 that belongs to light guide section 101 and the 2nd bottom surface 211 that belongs to light out part 102 returns the situation of light guide section 101 again and tails off, in addition, the light that enters light out part 102 from light guide section 101 is also effectively utilized, therefore, compare with example in the past, the illumination on the original copy is increased.
Fig. 3 is the figure of Illumination Distribution of length direction of the lighting device of explanation present embodiment.
In Fig. 3, be configured in the incidence surface side, be the left side of Fig. 3 that the longitudinal axis is represented Mingguang City's amount that contrasts along the lighting position length direction of light conductor 100, original copy as the LED of light source.In addition, transverse axis is represented the length (unit is mm) from incidence surface 110.
In Fig. 3, the line shown in the label 300 is represented the illumination characteristic of the lighting device of present embodiment, and the line shown in the label 301 is illustrated in the illumination characteristic of representing with section among Fig. 5 B of the lighting device of example in the past.In conventional illuminating device, rising, present maximal illumination afterwards from the position of incidence surface 110 about 15mm illumination, slowly decay to the terminal part illumination of advancing.Can think that this is because near incidence surface 110, the part of the light that penetrates from light source (LED) directly enters light out part 102, the cause that near the light quantity the incidence surface is increased.
And in the lighting device of embodiments of the invention 1 as can be known, this tendency reduces, and obtains on the length direction of whole light conductor 100 roughly illumination uniformly.
<embodiment 2 〉
At this, more carefully observe the lighting device of embodiment 1 illumination characteristic, be Fig. 3, near incidence surface 110 about 15mm, have the low zone of illumination as can be known, in addition, near the about 10mm of self terminal portion, similarly have the zone that illumination more descends.Can think that this is owing to the substantial middle portion that enters into light conductor 100 from the direct sunshine of light source 120, thus near light generation scattering incidence surface 110, the cause that the light of arrival light out part 102 tails off.
On the other hand, in conventional illuminating device, in the scope of distance incidence surface 20~50mm, obtain the maximum of illumination.Consider that this is owing to added the light that directly arrives light out part 502 from light source.And near the end of the incidence surface of lighting device the illumination step-down, therefore, near the end of this incidence surface, can't read original copy.Thus, this part becomes the nonuseable part of lighting device.In addition similarly, at the terminal part of the opposition side of incidence surface, the part that illumination reduces in the scope of self terminal portion number millimeter is arranged also.So, seek to make the length of the part that these illumination reduce shorter, thereby reduce nonuseable part.
Such illumination characteristic is pressed shades of colour and slightly different.Current most CIS uses the LED of 3 kinds of colors of RGB.These LED as shown in Figure 4, along continuous straight runs disposes side by side near the incidence surface of light conductor.Thus,, LED far away apart from light out part is arranged, the poor more tendency of lifting characteristic of illumination according to its allocation position.As a result, the uniformity of being not only near the illumination of light in part descends, and the colorimetric properties of light out part also descend.
In addition, the part that such illumination descends can not be used to reading of original copy, and therefore, the both ends of CIS become and can not use, and become waste.So, seek to solve such problem: the lighting device size is reduced, and to make whole zone be the effective coverage.
Therefore in embodiment 2, near the illumination of improving the light in part descends, the height of projection 103 is reduced, be blocked in the past, be taken into light out part 102 from the part of the direct sunshine of light source 120, use as illumination light.Like this, just has the feature that makes near the low area decreases of the illumination of incidence surface.
Fig. 6 is the brief strabismus map of the light conductor 100a of embodiments of the invention 2.
This light conductor 100a is processed into shape shown in Figure 6 with acrylic materials and makes.The feature of this light conductor 100a is identical with the foregoing description 1, all is elongated shape, wherein has the light guide section 101 of deriving along its length from the light of light source 120, and wire ground penetrates the light out part 102 of the illumination light of irradiation original copy.In the position of dividing this light guide section 101 and light out part 102, the same with embodiment 1, be formed with wedge portion 104 shown in Figure 6 and projection 103.
Being shaped as of this projection 103 has the 1st raised areas 601 and the 2nd raised areas 602 along the length direction of this light conductor 100a.Wherein, the 1st raised areas 601 is that it uprises highly gradually near 0 to about 5.5mm from the distance of incidence surface 110; Above-mentioned the 2nd raised areas 602 is connected on after above-mentioned the 1st raised areas 601, lasts till terminal part with certain height always.This is characterised in that, distance incidence surface 110 the distance about 5.5mm near before the zone, make the height of projection 103 and the height of wedge portion 104, (highly=0) state advances to the terminal part direction and uprises gradually from roughly there not being height, when when the 1st raised areas 601 enters into the 2nd raised areas 602, the height of projection 103 keeps constant by the height of for example the foregoing description 1.Thus, comprise that more light arrives light out part 102 from light guide section 101 from the direct sunshine of light source 120 with from the light of the bottom surface of light guide section 100a.Like this, just, remedied near the reduction of the illumination the incidence surface 110.
Near incidence surface 110, there is the light that directly enters light out part 102 from LED120, wait by the formation projection in the past and block, not use this direct sunshine as far as possible.Embodiment 2 by utilizing this direct sunshine from light source 120, successfully makes near incidence surface 110 illumination improve then in contrast.
In contrast,, by improving the height of projection 103, and make the height change of wedge portion 104, regulate light quantity according to this distance in the distance of distance incidence surface 110 part far away.Thus, can regulate the light quantity that arrives light out part 102, make the illumination of length direction of light conductor 100a even.
With reference to the light conductor 100a of Fig. 9 explanation by present embodiment 2, the result after near the illumination the incidence surface 110 improves.
Fig. 9 is near the figure of the lifting characteristic of the illumination the incidence surface of lighting device of expression embodiments of the invention 1, embodiment 2.In Fig. 9, the result of label 900 expression embodiment 1, the result of label 901 expression embodiment 2.
In Fig. 9, represent near the incidence surface illumination with relative value.In embodiment 2, compare as can be known with embodiment 1, from incidence surface the distance about 4mm near, the lifting of illumination is better.Thus, the effective length that can effectively shine the light conductor of original copy has increased, and as the light conductor corresponding to the original copy of certain width, can relatively shorten the length of this part amount.
In addition, rely on the shape of the light conductor 100a of embodiment 2, also have new effect as described below.
Figure 10 is illustrated in the lighting device of embodiments of the invention 1, the figure of the asynchronous Illumination Distribution in installation site of LED.
In the light conductor shown in the embodiment 1 100, when skew takes place in the allocation position of the LED 120 that is configured in its incidence surface 110 sides on longitudinal direction, Illumination Distribution characteristic difference on the length direction of whole light conductor 100.Particularly in the zone near incidence surface 110, the slightly different illumination change in the installation site of LED120 will be very big.Therefore, in the lighting device of embodiment 1, on manufacturing process, must carefully adjust the setting height(from bottom) position of LED120, on manufacturing process, become very numerous and diverse.
Figure 11 is illustrated in the lighting device of embodiments of the invention 2, the figure of the asynchronous Illumination Distribution in installation site of LED.
In Figure 11, expression makes the Illumination Distribution characteristic of the asynchronous length direction in installation site of LED.Hence one can see that, even the installation site difference of LED, what variation is the Illumination Distribution characteristic do not have yet.Thus, the contraposition of LED becomes simply on manufacturing process, except the difference of the Illumination Distribution that can reduce product, can also shorten the time of manufacturing process.
