Definitions
- the present invention relates to a flashlight with light-emitting diodes.
- Flashlights with light-emitting diodes serving as light sources are known in principle.
- focusing elements are provided in the direction of radiation in front of the light-emitting diodes in order to bundle the light from the light-emitting diodes and thus achieve sufficient illuminance even in larger distances on a limited area.
- a flashlight according to the invention has a flashlight base body and a lamp head.
- This lamp head comprises at least two light-emitting diodes and one optical device, assigned to one of the light-emitting diodes, for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diode.
- the devices for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diode can in particular be converging lenses such as, for example, plano-convex or biconvex lenses.
- a tube is arranged in each case between one of the light-emitting diodes and the associated optical device for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diode.
- the tubes are designed so that they largely prevent the penetration of light from one of the light-emitting diodes into another optical device assigned to another of the light-emitting diodes for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diode.
- the tubes according to the invention prevent stray light from a light-emitting diode from falling into optical devices for bundling the light emitted by other light-emitting diodes and, after being deflected by them, into areas which are comparatively poorly illuminated in the area led lamp generated light pattern in a greater distance.
- the light emitted by the light-emitting diodes can be bundled without simultaneous impairment by scattered light from neighboring light-emitting diodes, so that a light pattern with high illuminance but only slight inhomogeneities is obtained at a greater distance.
- the tubes are preferably designed in such a way that the light emerging from them of the corresponding light-emitting diodes essentially completely falls on the corresponding optical device for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diode.
- the tube acts like an aperture diaphragm, resulting in sharply delimited areas associated with the light-emitting diodes in the light pattern at a greater distance with appropriate focusing.
- the sharp demarcation results in a more pleasant and appealing light pattern for the user.
- the tubes are preferably made of a non-transparent or translucent material, although it is generally sufficient that the inner or outer surface of the tubes are each opaque. is layered.
- the inner surface of the tubes is particularly preferably not reflective, although pure light scattering is possible, but is preferably also greatly reduced.
- the surface of the tubes is especially matt because it is easy to manufacture.
- the tubes can only be formed by partitions and the housing of the lamp head, the interior of at least one of the tubes is rotationally symmetrical. This cross-section of the interior corresponds on the one hand to the radiation characteristics of the light-emitting diodes and, on the other hand, results in a very appealing because circular lighting pattern.
- such tubes are particularly easy to manufacture.
- the optical device associated with this light-emitting diode for bundling its light is generally larger in area than the associated light-emitting diode. It is therefore particularly preferred if at least a section of the interior of the tubes has a truncated cone shape.
- the tubes should generally only be located between the light-emitting diode and the optical device assigned to this light-emitting diode for bundling the light emitted by it, and in particular may also be shorter than the distance between the light-emitting diode and the device associated with it for bundling the light emitted by it, it is Preferably, the tubes are held on a base element and their ends facing the light-emitting diodes accommodate at least parts of the luminous element of the light-emitting diodes. This way of holding the tubes has several advantages.
- the tubes and their position are particularly easy to assemble to each other is easy to ensure by the arrangement on the base element, so that their alignment to the optical devices for bundling can be carried out for all tubes with just one adjustment.
- the fact that the ends facing the light-emitting diodes accommodate at least parts of the light-emitting elements of the light-emitting diodes means that the light-emitting diodes, which are generally only held by their contact pins, can be aligned simply and precisely. This results in a particularly good alignment of the light-emitting diodes with the optical device for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diode and thus a high illuminance.
- one end of at least one tube assigned to a light-emitting diode adjoins the optical device assigned to this light-emitting diode for bundling the light emitted by this light-emitting diode or an element holding it.
- this effect can also be achieved by appropriate shaping of the base element, for example by molded-on spacers, but at least in the case in which the ends of all the tubes adjoin the corresponding optical devices for bundling the light emitted by the light-emitting diodes, the Another advantage is that stray light due to reflection on the optical devices for bundling the light emitted by the respective light emitting diodes do not easily fall into the interior of the lamp head between the tubes and can be reflected from there, so that unwanted stray light which arises in this way is suppressed.
- the base element and tubes are preferably formed in one piece, which, on the one hand, allows simple and inexpensive production, for example as a plastic injection-molded part, and on the other hand ensures that the tubes are aligned with one another in a manner which is particularly stable against malfunctions.
- the base part particularly preferably has essentially the shape of a light-collecting reflector, which on the one hand results in a very stable holding of the tubes, since these are connected to the base part along their circumference and also in their longitudinal direction. On the other hand, when viewed against the direction of light, the result is an image that is familiar and appealing from ordinary flashlights.
- the optical devices for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diodes are arranged so that they are inclined to one another in such a way that bundles of light emitted by the light-emitting diodes formed by the optical devices intersect in a predetermined range.
- the optical axes of which are inclined towards one another in the direction of radiation.
- the predetermined range can be given, for example, by a typical working distance of the flashlight from an object to be illuminated, for example between 5 and 10 m, or the luminosity of the light-emitting diodes.
- the inclination of the optical axes and the position and focal length of the lenses are particularly preferably selected such that the image of the light-emitting diodes lies in the cutting area of the bundles. A circle without any disturbing reflections surrounding the circle then essentially results in the predetermined area as a light pattern.
- the light-emitting diodes are preferably held on a printed circuit board which has contact elements for contacting current supply contacts provided in the flashlight main body or batteries or accumulators which can be inserted in the flashlight main body. This results in a particularly simple mounting of the light-emitting diodes, and at the same time the current paths can be particularly short.
- the contact elements particularly preferably comprise a first ring-shaped contact area and a second, substantially ring-shaped or circular contact area arranged within the first contact area.
- This allows reliable contacting even with different angular positions of the flashlight main body and the lamp head, which can occur in particular when the lamp head is screwed onto the flashlight main body.
- the base element is arranged on the printed circuit board, since on the one hand this results in a compact arrangement of the components and on the other hand possible damage to the power supply lines for the light-emitting diodes can be easily avoided by a relative movement of the base element and the printed circuit board.
- the optical devices for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diodes can in principle be held individually in corresponding holders, it is preferred that the optical devices for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diode are lenses which are integrated in a front element.
- the front element can be translucent or opaque in the areas without lenses, which can be achieved by means of appropriate coatings, but is preferably overall transparent, since it is then e.g. can be produced as a plastic injection molded body very easily and inexpensively.
- a simple alignment to all light-emitting diodes is possible by only one adjustment process, in particular if a lamp head with a base element, as described above, is used.
- the lenses can particularly preferably be designed as plano-convex lenses, the flat surface of which each forms a region of the outside of the front element.
- the lenses are designed as biconvex lenses which, with the same focal length and thus light-collecting effect, can have smaller radii of curvature and are therefore easier to produce.
- the front element can essentially only be disk-shaped, in a preferred embodiment it is pot-shaped, with the tubes and the circuit board in the inside of the pot LEDs are arranged. This results in a unit that is easy to assemble with all optical components, and in particular in the event that a base element is provided, a unit that is very easy to assemble can be manufactured with very secure and simple adjustment.
- the front element and the base element or the printed circuit board particularly preferably have corresponding guide elements which act as anti-rotation devices.
- no misalignment can occur even during use, e.g. due to shocks or vibrations caused by a relative rotation of the light-emitting diodes and the optical devices assigned to them for bundling the light emitted by the respective light-emitting diodes.
- the base element can simply be inserted into the pot-shaped front element, whereupon the pot is closed by the circuit board at its edge.
- the connection between the front element and the circuit board can be, for example. by gluing or, if plastic parts are used, also welded connections, but it is preferred that the front element and the circuit board are connected to one another at the edge of the pot by a snap connection. This results in a particularly simple assembly, in which, in addition, no high Te peratu- possibly damaging the printed circuit board or the LEDs. Ren, or harmful solvent vapors contained in adhesives can occur.
- the front element with tubes and printed circuit board is preferably arranged in a sleeve-like head housing, which enables simple assembly of the units.
- the sleeve-like head housing can serve as mechanical protection for the front element by appropriate choice of material.
- At least one, particularly preferably circumferential, lamp head seal is preferably provided between the front element and the head housing, which prevents moisture from penetrating between the front element and the head housing.
- Light-emitting diodes are preferably arranged on a circle with equal angular distances.
- Three light-emitting diodes are preferably provided, since this results in a particularly favorable ratio between the illumination achieved and the still low power consumption. This is particularly important because, with the same lighting duration, a low current consume the use of smaller batteries or accumulators and thus a lower weight allows.
