Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a lighting apparatus with controlled light emission.
  • the lighting apparatuses normally used for illuminating pedestrian precincts, squares, yards, or other public or private areas are made, in the majority of cases, using a plurality of supports, which carry the light source, to which are associated diffusers having a spherical shape, or even different shapes.
  • These accessories consist of one or more elements which are designed to intercept part of the luminous flux emitted by the apparatus.
  • the said accessories are not in compliance with current standards and regulations as regards the ratio between the flux emitted upwards and the total flux emitted by the lighting element.
  • a lighting apparatus with controlled light emission according to the preamble of claim 1 is disclosed in GB-A-202 009.
  • a purpose of the present invention is therefore to provide a lighting apparatus that enables elimination of light dispersion upwards.
  • a further purpose of the present invention is to provide a lighting apparatus that enables reduction of light pollution of the environment in a simple and inexpensive way.
  • the controlled light-emission apparatus is designated as a whole by the reference number 10.
  • the lighting apparatus 10 is provided with a reflecting element, in turn designated as a whole by the reference number 11, which is made up of a number of units 12 overlapping one another.
  • Each one of the said units 12 has a portion 19 adjacent to the light source 15 and has a concave shape with circular symmetry, with the concavity downwards ending in an edge 18.
  • Each one of the said units 12 has a reflecting bottom surface 13, which is concave, and an absorbing top surface 14, which is convex.
  • the said units 12 are moreover arranged in such a way that they surround the light source 15.
  • the distance between two units 12 that are adjacent to each other, and in particular the distance between their edges 18, designated in Figure 2 by the letter "d" is such that each ray emitted upwards by the source 15 that is not reflected by the reflecting surface 13 directly encounters an absorbing surface 14 belonging to the reflecting element 11.
  • operation of the lighting apparatus is as follows: the portion of light emitted by the light source 15 that hits the reflecting bottom surfaces 13 of the units 12 is sent towards the area to be illuminated, whereas the other portion of light hits the top surfaces 14, which absorb it, thus preventing it from being reflected towards undesired areas, as is illustrated more clearly in Figure 2.
  • the distance "d" between the edges 18 of the units 12 must be determined in such a way that no emission from the lamp comes out directly, and in particular in such a way that no emission form the light source 15 comes out directly upwards without encountering reflecting or absorbing parts.
  • the top, absorbing, surface 14 moreover prevents uncontrollable portions of the luminous flux (such as anomalous reflections, Lambert-type components, etc.) from being emitted outside the lighting element towards undesired areas.
  • uncontrollable portions of the luminous flux such as anomalous reflections, Lambert-type components, etc.

Claims (3)

  1. Beleuchtungsvorrichtung (10) mit gesteuerter Lichtemission, die mindestens eine Lichtquelle (15) umfasst, der ein reflektierendes Element (11) zugeordnet ist, wobei das reflektierende Element (11) aus einer Anzahl von einander überlappenden Einheiten (12) besteht, wobei eine jede der Einheiten (12) eine reflektierende Unterseitenfläche (13) und eine absorbierende Oberseitenfläche (14) aufweist, wobei die zu dem reflektierenden Element (11) gehörenden Einheiten (12) einander auf eine solche Weise überlappen, dass keine Lichtemission von der Lichtquelle (15) direkt nach oben herausgelangt, ohne auf reflektierende oder absorbierende Teile zu treffen,
    dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass
    der Abstand zwischen zweien der zu dem reflektierenden Element (11) gehörenden Einheiten (12) derart ist, dass jeder nicht von der reflektierenden Fläche (13) reflektierte Strahl direkt auf eine zu dem reflektierenden Element (11) gehörende, absorbierende Fläche (14) trifft.
  2. Beleuchtungsvorrichtung (10) nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass eine jede der Einheiten (12) einen Abschnitt (19) neben der Lichtquelle (15) und eine konkave Form mit Kreissymmetrie aufweist, wobei die Konkavität in Richtung nach unten in einer Kante (18) endet.
  3. Beleuchtungsvorrichtung (10) nach Anspruch 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass eine jede der absorbierenden Flächen (14) eine schwarze Oberflächenbeschaffenheit aufweist.
