Detailed Description
The present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings based on preferred embodiments. The same or equivalent constituent elements, members, and processes shown in the respective drawings are denoted by the same reference numerals, and overlapping descriptions are appropriately omitted. The embodiments are not limited to the embodiments but examples, and all the features and combinations described in the embodiments are not necessarily essential to the invention.
(first embodiment)
Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a vehicle lamp 100 including a light-emitting device 10 according to an embodiment and its surroundings. The vehicle lamp 100 functions as an automatic driving display lamp in the present embodiment, and when the vehicle is driven manually, the vehicle lamp 100 functions as a daytime running lamp in the daytime and functions as a position lamp at night, and the details thereof will be described later.
The vehicle lamp 100 includes a housing 102 and a light emitting device 10. The light-emitting device 10 includes an organic EL panel 12.
The housing 102 is a mounting structure for mounting the light emitting device 10 to the vehicle body 2, and the housing 102 includes a base 104 and a light-transmitting cover 106.
The base 104 has a mounting surface 104a that abuts against the vehicle. The mounting surface 104a has a three-dimensional curved surface shape corresponding to the portion 2a of the vehicle body 2 with which the mounting surface 104a is in contact. Here, the corresponding three-dimensionally curved surface shape is a shape that substantially does not cause a gap between the mounting surface 104a and the portion of the vehicle body 2 when the mounting surface 104a is brought into contact with the portion of the vehicle body. The base 104 may be attached to the vehicle body by an adhesive member such as a double-sided tape.
The base 104 has a recess 104b opened to the front side of the lamp. The light-transmitting cover 106 is attached to the base 104 so as to cover the recess 104 b. The light-transmitting cover 106 has a recess 106a communicating with the recess 104b of the base 104. A lamp chamber 110 formed by the recess 104b of the base 104 and the recess 106a of the light-transmitting cover 106 is formed between the base 104 and the light-transmitting cover 106. Only one of the base 104 and the light-transmitting cover 106 may have a recess forming the lamp chamber 110.
The light-transmitting cover 106 is configured to suppress the ultraviolet rays from entering the lamp chamber 110. For example, the light transmissive cover 106 may also contain an ultraviolet absorbing material. This can suppress deterioration of the organic EL panel 12 due to ultraviolet rays.
The organic EL panel 12 is accommodated in the lamp chamber 110. The organic EL panel 12 is preferably fixed to the inner surface 106b of the light-transmissive cover 106 so as not to form a gap between the exit surface 12a and the inner surface 106b, as shown in the drawing. This can suppress entry of moisture between the emission surface 12a of the organic EL panel 12 and the inner surface 106b of the light-transmissive cover 106, and can suppress fogging of the inner surface 106b of the light-transmissive cover 106 at the inner surface portion facing the emission surface 12a of the organic EL panel 12. The organic EL panel 12 may be fixed to the light-transmitting cover 106 by a transparent adhesive member, for example, a high-transparency double-sided tape or a transparent silicon plate.
The Organic EL panel 12 may be a flexible plate-shaped Organic EL panel, for example, a so-called 2.5 dimensional curved OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) panel. The 2.5-dimensional curved OLED panel has excellent characteristics that the uniformity of light emission in the light-emitting surface is good and the panel can be bent as desired like paper. In this case, the inner surface 106b of the light-transmissive cover 106 may have a 2.5-dimensional shape.
Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a schematic configuration of the organic EL panel 12. The organic EL panel 12 is configured by sequentially laminating a first laminate 18, an insulating layer 20, a second laminate 22, an insulating layer 24, and a third laminate 26 on a transparent flexible substrate 16, and sealing them with a sealing member 28. The flexible substrate 16 is, for example, a flexible glass substrate or a flexible resin substrate.
The first laminate 18 includes a first anode 30, a first organic EL light-emitting layer 32, and a first cathode 34.
The second stacked body 22 includes a second anode 40, a second organic EL light-emitting layer 42, and a second cathode 44.
The third laminate 26 includes a third anode 50, a third organic EL light-emitting layer 52, and a third cathode 54.
In each laminate, the arrangement of the anode and the cathode may be reversed.
The first anode 30, the first cathode 34, the second anode 40, the second cathode 44, and the third anode 50 are transparent electrodes made of ITO or the like, the third cathode 54 is a metal electrode, and the third cathode 54 is an aluminum electrode obtained by depositing aluminum on the third organic EL light-emitting layer 52, for example. In the case where the third anode 50 and the third cathode 54 are arranged in the opposite direction, the third cathode 54 is a transparent electrode, and the third anode 50 is a metal electrode.
The first organic EL light-emitting layer 32 of the first laminate 18 is configured to be capable of emitting blue light, specifically, light having a dominant wavelength of 450nm to 485 nm. When a voltage is applied to the first organic EL light-emitting layer 32 using the first anode 30 and the first cathode 34, the first organic EL light-emitting layer 32 emits blue light.
The second organic EL light-emitting layer 42 of the second laminate 22 is configured to be capable of emitting blue-green (Turquoise), specifically, capable of emitting light having a dominant wavelength of 490 to 498 nm. When a voltage is applied to the second organic EL light-emitting layer 42 using the second anode 40 and the second cathode 44, the second organic EL light-emitting layer 42 emits blue-green light.
The third organic EL light-emitting layer 52 of the third laminate 26 is configured to be capable of emitting red light, specifically, light having a dominant wavelength of 610nm to 640 nm. When a voltage is applied to the third organic EL light-emitting layer 52 using the third anode 50 and the third cathode 54, the third organic EL light-emitting layer 52 emits red light.
Although the first organic EL light-emitting layer 32, the second organic EL light-emitting layer 42, and the third organic EL light-emitting layer 52 are configured to emit blue, cyan, and red light, respectively, the present invention is not limited to this, and any one of the three organic EL light-emitting layers may be configured to emit blue light, any one may be configured to emit cyan light, and any one may be configured to emit red light.
The light emitted by the organic EL light-emitting layers is combined and recognized as a single color light from the emission surface 16a of the flexible substrate 16 (i.e., the emission surface 12a of the organic EL panel 12). The light emitted from the flexible substrate 16 exhibits a color corresponding to the luminance of the light emitted from each organic EL light-emitting layer, in other words, a color corresponding to the voltage applied to each organic EL light-emitting layer.
Fig. 3 is a block diagram showing a lighting system 200 including the vehicle lighting device 100 of fig. 1. The lighting system 200 includes a battery 202, an illuminance sensor 204, a vehicle ECU206, and the vehicle lighting 100.
The illuminance sensor 204 detects illuminance around the vehicle.
The vehicle ECU206 comprehensively controls the vehicle lamp 100. An on/off command S1 indicating on/off of the lamp, driving mode information S2 indicating whether the vehicle is in automatic driving or manual driving, illuminance information S3 indicating illuminance around the vehicle, and the like are transmitted from the vehicle ECU206 to the vehicle lamp 100.
The vehicle lamp 100 further includes a switch 120 and a control unit 122. The light emitting device 10 further includes a lighting circuit 124. The switch 120, the controller 122, and the lighting circuit 124 may be provided in the lamp chamber 110, or may be provided outside the lamp chamber 110.
The switch 120 is provided in a power supply path from the battery 202 to the lighting circuit 124, and the switch 120 is controlled to be turned on and off in response to a control signal S4 from the control unit 122. The switch 120 is turned on in the lighting state of the light emitting device 10.
Control unit 122 generates control signal S4 to be transmitted to switch 120 based on-off command S1 from vehicle ECU 206.
Further, based on driving mode information S2 and illuminance information S3 from vehicle ECU206, controller 122 controls the luminance of light emitted from each organic EL light-emitting layer of each laminate individually, and adjusts the chromaticity of combined light of light from each organic EL light-emitting layer. Specifically, the control unit 122 generates the dimming signal S5 based on the driving mode information S2 and the illuminance information S3. The lighting circuit 124 supplies a driving voltage corresponding to the dimming signal S5 to each laminate.
When the driving mode information S2 indicates that the vehicle is automatically driving, the control unit 122 generates the light control signal S5 for emitting the light of cyan color for notifying the surroundings of the automatic driving to the light emitting device 10, based on the illuminance indicated by the illuminance information S3, that is, based on whether the surroundings of the vehicle are bright (for example, daytime) or dark (for example, nighttime). Specifically, the control unit 122 generates the dimming signal S5 for supplying the drive voltage only to the second stacked body 22.
Further, when the driving mode information S2 indicates that the vehicle is being manually driven and the illuminance indicated by the illuminance information S3 is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, that is, for example, when the vehicle is bright around the daytime, the control unit 122 generates the dimming signal S5 that causes white synthesized light, which is daytime running light, to be emitted to the light-emitting device 10.
Further, when the driving mode information S2 indicates that the vehicle is being manually driven and the illuminance indicated by the illuminance information S3 is smaller than the predetermined threshold value, that is, for example, at night or when the surroundings of the vehicle in a tunnel are dark, the control unit 122 generates the dimming signal S5 for emitting white synthesized light as a position light to the light emitting device 10.
The lighting circuit 124 is supplied with a battery voltage from the battery 202 via the switch 120. The lighting circuit 124 steps up or down the battery voltage in accordance with the dimming signal S5 generated by the control unit 122, and supplies a separate driving voltage to each laminate of the light emitting device 10.
According to the present embodiment described above, light from each laminate is arbitrarily combined, whereby light of cyan and other various colors can be generated. Thus, one light-emitting device 10 can be used as an automatic driving display lamp, and can also be used as a daytime running lamp or a position lamp. In other words, one light-emitting device 10 can be used in common as an automatic driving display lamp and a conventional marker lamp. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the problem of the installation place of the lamp for automatic driving display. In addition, the cost can be reduced as compared with a case where a dedicated light-emitting device is provided for each lamp.
In addition, according to the present embodiment, by mounting the organic EL panel 12 of the light-emitting device 10 through the enclosure 102, it is possible to mount the organic EL panel 12 having a shape other than this (for example, a 2.5-dimensional shape) on the vehicle body 2 having a three-dimensional curved surface shape. In addition, by covering the organic EL panel 12 with the translucent cover 106, deterioration of the organic EL panel 12 due to ultraviolet rays can be suppressed.
Next, a modification of the first embodiment will be described.
(first modification of the first embodiment)
Fig. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a vehicle lamp 300 according to a modification and its surroundings. Fig. 4 corresponds to fig. 1. The vehicle lamp 300 includes a housing 302 and a light emitting device 10.
The housing 302 has a bottomed cup shape integrally formed by an outer peripheral wall portion 304 and a bottom portion 306, and the bottom portion 306 is attached to the vehicle body 2 as a lamp front. At least the bottom 306 is formed of a material having light-transmitting properties. The housing 302 may be said to be a member in which the base and the light-transmitting cover described in the first embodiment are integrally formed.
The outer peripheral wall portion 304 has a mounting surface 304a on the side opposite to the bottom portion 306. The mounting surface 304a has a three-dimensional curved surface shape corresponding to the portion 2a of the vehicle body 2 that is in contact with the mounting surface 304 a. Further, the bottom portion 306 is configured to suppress the intrusion of ultraviolet rays into the lamp chamber 310, similarly to the light-transmitting cover 106 of the first embodiment.
The organic EL panel 12 of the light-emitting device 10 is housed in a lamp room 310 formed between the enclosure 302 and the vehicle body 2. The organic EL panel 12 is preferably fixed to the inner surface 306b of the bottom 306 in such a manner that a gap is not generated between the exit surface 12a and the inner surface 306b, as shown in the drawing. This can suppress entry of moisture between the emission surface 12a of the organic EL panel 12 and the inner surface 306b of the bottom portion 306, and can suppress fogging of the inner surface portion of the inner surface 306b of the bottom portion 306 facing the emission surface 12a of the organic EL panel 12. The organic EL panel 12 may be adhesively fixed to the bottom 306 by a transparent adhesive member, for example, a high-transparency double-sided tape or a transparent silicon plate.
According to this modification, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained. In addition, according to the present modification, since the housing 102 is formed of a single member, the number of members can be reduced.
(second modification of the first embodiment)
In the first embodiment, the case where the first laminate 18, the second laminate 22, and the third laminate 26 are laminated was described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the light-emitting device 10 may include a plurality of first laminates 18, a plurality of second laminates 22, and a plurality of third laminates 26, which are not laminated.
Fig. 5 (a) is a plan view showing a schematic configuration of the organic EL panel 12 of the light-emitting device 10 according to the modification, and fig. 5 (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along line a-a of fig. 5 (a). In the present modification, the plurality of first stacked bodies 18, the plurality of second stacked bodies 22, and the plurality of third stacked bodies 26 are arranged in a matrix.
As in the first embodiment, the light emitted from each organic EL light-emitting layer is combined and recognized as a single color light from the emission surface 16a of the flexible substrate 16 (i.e., the emission surface 12a of the organic EL panel 12).
According to this modification, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained.
(third modification of the first embodiment)
