Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a luminaire for illuminating a workstation with a flat illuminant.
  • ceiling lights are generally used, which illuminate the rooms as a whole.
  • a general room lighting is often not sufficient. Rather, an individual lighting of the workplace is required, which is obtained by additional lights.
  • table lamps which have an adjustable lamp arm, at the end of which is arranged in a reflector light source.
  • This lighting arm has a disturbing effect insofar as it requires a certain amount of space at the desk.
  • the light source is an additional heat source located approximately at head height, which interferes with the work in the workplace.
  • this luminous means may be an electroluminescent luminous layer made of an inorganic or an organic semiconductor material.
  • the luminescent layers of an inorganic semiconductor material represent a further development of the known point-shaped LEDs, the luminescent means consisting of an organic semiconductor layer are often also referred to as so-called OLEDs (organic LEDs).
  • OLEDs organic LEDs
  • Luminaires with such flat bulbs are for example from the DE 198 26 548A1 or the EP 0 756 132 A1 known. Compared with the conventional luminaires with incandescent bulbs or fluorescent tubes as light sources, these luminaires are characterized by their shallow depths with flat illuminants. Since both the organic and the inorganic bulbs are very flat, lights can be created, which have a total depth of only 0.5 to 3 cm. Another advantage of such lights is the comparatively very small heat development.
  • JP 2001-325805 A is a hinged floor lamp for lighting a work surface known.
  • the lamp can be placed in the unfolded state on the work surface, so that a light source of the lamp is arranged perpendicular to the plane of the work surface and the light emitted by the light source is emitted to the work surface.
  • a device for the illumination of theaters, TV studios or the like which has a surface element, which is designed as a light-emitting light-emitting diode.
  • the surface element can be arranged perpendicular to a work surface, so that the lamp is designed such that the light emitted by the light source is emitted to the plane perpendicular to the plane of the working surface.
  • a prismatic plate which is suitable as a light guide plate, for example, for a flat, electroluminescent light source.
  • the plate has a prism structure on its side facing away from the light source.
  • the radiation can preferably be directed in a direction that differs from the direction of the surface normal.
  • this prismatic plate the radiation in certain directions, in which no radiation is necessary to be weakened.
  • a vehicle headlamp is described with a light source in the form of a flexible LED, which can be adapted to wide areas of the surface of a body.
  • a workplace lamp in the form of a flat, downward-emitting light box is known.
  • a tubular light-emitting means is arranged between a rear plate and a rear side illuminated, in front of the rear side illuminated glass plate, wherein on the glass plate is a prism sheet.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a luminaire with a flat illuminant, which is suitable for illuminating workstations.
  • a luminaire which has the features of claim 1. This is characterized by the fact that the light emitted by the planar illuminant is radiated onto a plane which is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the illuminant and which represents the work surface to be illuminated.
  • the luminaire thus has an asymmetrical light emission which ensures that the light emitted by the luminous means is only used to illuminate the workstation and does not lead to disruptive glare effects for a user located at the workstation.
  • the luminaire according to the invention can be arranged, for example, on the edge of a work table. Due to its very small depth, it takes up little space and therefore has less disturbing effect than conventional table lamps.
  • the desired asymmetrical emission characteristic of the luminaire according to the invention can be achieved, for example, by arranging a light guide plate in front of the planar luminous means, which deflects the light emitted by the luminous means onto the work surface to be illuminated.
  • the deflection of the light can be obtained, for example, by means of a prism structure arranged at the light exit surface or the side of the light guide plate facing away from the light source.
  • An alternative possibility is to bend the light source at its end remote from the worktop to be illuminated facing the work surface.
  • an opaque back plate is provided on the back of the lamp, which prevents unwanted emission of light to the back.
  • the luminous means can be, for example, a layer of an inorganic semiconductor material or of an organic semiconductor material. In both cases, it is possible to change the color temperature of the emitted light by changing the field strength applied to the semiconductor layer.
  • An advantageous development of the luminaire according to the invention then consists in using a device for manual adjustment of the light color, for example a switch or rotary control. Alternatively, however, the control of the optical fiber can also be done via a sensor.
  • the lamp 1 is provided for illuminating a workplace 6 in the form of a desk 7.
  • the lamp 1 is arranged in the example shown on a longitudinal side of the desk 7 and has the shape of a flat rectangular disk.
  • other shapes for the lamp 1 would be conceivable. For example, this could have a circular shape or the shape of an ellipse.
  • the lamp 1 is perpendicular to the illuminated table top 8 of the desk 7.
  • the radiation of the light emitted by the luminaire 1 is such that the light falls exclusively on the table plate 8 arranged perpendicular to the luminaire 1, so that a trapezoidal region 9 is illuminated on it.
  • a radiation perpendicular to the plane of the lamp 1, however, does not occur, so that a person sitting on the opposite longitudinal side of the desk 7 person is not dazzled.
  • Fig. 2 shows the structural design of the luminaire 1 according to the invention.
  • the light is thereby generated a flat layer of a planar luminous means 2.
  • This luminous means 2 is an electroluminescent layer of an inorganic or organic semiconductor material, for example a thin OLED film.
  • On both sides of this layer 2 are electrode layers (not shown), with the aid of which an electric field applied across the semiconductor layer 2 is generated.
  • This electric field is responsible for the light generation in the semiconductor layer 2.
  • the color of the light generated by the light source 2 is influenced, inter alia, by the field strength of the electric field. There is thus the possibility of adjusting the color temperature of the light emitted by the lamp 1 individually, which can be done for example by a manual control of the electric field strength or automatically via a corresponding sensor.
  • a light source 2 arranged in front of the light source
  • This consists of a transparent material, such as plastic or glass and has a prism structure 5 on its light exit side.
  • the preferably integrally connected to the plate-shaped core of the light guide plate 4 micro-prisms 5 have an asymmetric structure, so that emerging from the micro-prisms 5 light rays are broken down or in the direction of the working surface to be illuminated. In Fig. 2 this is illustrated by way of example with reference to the light beam S 1.
  • an opaque back plate 3 is arranged, which prevents radiation of light to the rear.
  • the entire structure has a very small depth of, for example, 5mm to 3cm.
  • the light guide plate 4, at the back of the lamp 2, the associated electrode layers and the back plate 3 can be applied in the form of thin films.
  • a second embodiment of a luminaire according to the invention is in Fig. 3 shown.
  • the lamp 11 is curved at its end facing away from the working surface 8 to be illuminated end to the work surface 8 out.
  • the steering of the light emitted from the lamp 11 light is improved on the table top. It is then even possible to dispense with the above-explained light guide plate with the micro-prism structure.
  • the use of such a light-deflecting plate is also advantageous in this exemplary embodiment, since the radiation of the light emitted by the luminaire 1 is thereby better determined and the trapezoidal region 12 produced on the working surface 8 can be specified better.
  • the luminaire has in this case an identical structure as in Fig. 1 and 2 illustrated light.
  • the present invention thus provides an extremely flat luminaire for illuminating a workstation which requires little space and at the same time provides optimal illumination.
