Definitions
- the invention relates to a light signal according to the preamble of claim 1.
- in known light signals is predominant as the light source used an incandescent lamp whose light is emitted by means of an optical System is directed in a defined solid angle.
- the Optical system usually includes Fresnel lenses or aspherical lenses, in their light entry side focal point the filament of the incandescent lamp is arranged.
- novel illuminants especially on the basis of LED (light emitting diodes) arises increasingly the need to use incandescent bulbs through more modern bulbs replace.
- the main problem here is the optical adaptation, because the existing optical system on the special Radiation characteristic of the bulb is tuned.
- the invention is therefore based on the object, a light signal of the generic type indicate that for bulbs different kind of reuse of existing optical system allows.
- the task with the characterizing Characteristics of claim 1 solved.
- a second optical system which is an image of the illuminant in the light entry side focal point of the existing generated optical system, the possibility arises that Signal housing with bundling optics without loss of quality continue to be used with regard to the solid angle to be illuminated. It is only necessary to have a large part of the amount of light emitted by the new illuminant to one Focal point to focus with the focus of the first optical system coincides.
- This second optical system can be a simple condensing lens or even a Fresnel plate be, to which no special quality requirements have to be asked.
- the high quality first optical System ensures the optimal illumination of the for Visibility of the signal concept, in particular by the operating personnel the rail-bound transport, authoritative Solid angle. Particularly advantageous is the reusability the first optical system in the suitability of the same for long-range and short-range display of signal terms, d. H. in the presence of a special optics, for example, at the bottom of the first optical system, for light scattering down, d. H. in the direction of the ground.
- the new light source is an LED array.
- luminous signs or light signals so far equipped with incandescent lamps, based on LED be re-equipped, since LED comparatively inexpensive, durable and are bright.
- Known LED light signals exist essentially of a grid-like arrangement of several LED, each equipped with a reflector, wherein a light-bundling optical element and optionally a windscreen are provided.
- the optical element must as possible for different mounting and Observation points, curve radii of the railway track and detection distances be suitable.
- This second optical system serving for adaptation can be relatively simple, since only the Light must be focused in one focus and no Consideration of near and far range, curve radii and other parameters is required.
- the LED arrangement according to claim 2 can according to claim 3 a single LED with focusing lens, which is the second optical system forms.
- an LED matrix for forming a given radiating surface with several LED modules be equipped.
- each module contains a specific one Number of individual LEDs connected in such a way that a security concept regarding LED failure feasible is.
- each LED module with its own optical element be equipped.
- the totality of the optical elements All LED modules of the LED matrix then form the inventive second optical system.
- the LED modules including optical elements are preferably housed in a housing which in sealing the vicinity of the light exit surface in a matrix plate is used.
- the LED can, for example, accordingly the modules arranged in groups on a circuit board be and be energized together. Further constructive measures can take into account the operating parameters of LED, for example, with regard to the temperature, provided be.
- An optimum in terms of light output, utilization and service life is at an operating state slightly below the recommended values. Under such conditions improves - in contrast to the incandescent lamp - the relative light output, d. H. the brightness of each power unit used.
- Figure 1 is the principle of operation of a light bulb signal illustrated in the prior art.
- the filament 1 an incandescent lamp 2 is at the focal point of an optical Systems 3 of the focal length f1 arranged.
- Characteristic of the filament 1 is a radiation cone 4, whose opening angle the diameter and the optical axis 5 of the optical Systems 3 determines.
- the optical system 3 is usually calculated for Fresnel and / or aspherical lens shape such that has a high light intensity for the long range and for the obliquely down close range yields, where site-specific parameters, such as the track radius at the site are.
- a second optical system 6 in the form of a focusing lens provided, as shown in Figure 2 can be seen.
- the light of an LED matrix 7, which is equipped with multiple LED 8 is through this second optical system 6 of the focal length f2 to a Focused focus 9, with the focus of the first optical system 3 and thus with the glow plug layer in FIG 1 matches.
- the invention is not limited to the above Embodiment. Rather, it is a number of variants conceivable, which also with fundamentally different kind Execution of the features of the invention make use.
