Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a compact lighting device, in particular for use in a dental lamp.
  • a suitable lamp generally applied to the end of an articulated arm, in turn fastened to a fixed structure, said lamp being able to be moved so as to aim the light beam emitted by it at the desired point.
  • the mobile arm can be fixed to the body of a more complex dental apparatus, or else directly to a wall.
  • lighting devices of a suitably small size, which can be worn directly by the dentist.
  • This type of lamp must respect a series of requirements, which meet different needs.
  • a first requirement of dental lamps is to concentrate the light beam, and this is due to the need to light up the patient's oral cavity in the best possible way, without bothering the eyes.
  • a second requirement of dental lamps is to provide a light radiation that possesses the characteristics of a white light and, more specifically that preferably has the following trichromaticity coordinates of the 4 extreme points:
  • the light radiation must not alter the perception of colour of the surface of a patient's teeth by the dentist, because otherwise it could compromise the choice of colour of a possible dental prosthesis or of the joining cement necessary for a possible filling.
  • the infrared component of the light radiation emitted must be low, with a power density E ⁇ 350 W/m 2 on the work surface, to avoid the patient's body heating up.
  • UV-C ultraviolet 280nm
  • UV-B 280nm - 315nm
  • UV-A UV- 400 nm
  • the light radiation must have a low emission in the wavelength range from 400 nm to 500nm to avoid the polymerisation of the cement.
  • dental lamps comprising a plurality of light sources, in particular a plurality of LED light sources (light emitting diodes), in combination with optical devices, like for example a corresponding number of shaped lenses, arranged between the light source and the surface of the object to be lit up, hereafter also known as work surface, or else a suitably curved reflecting surface, arranged on the opposite side to the plurality of light sources with respect to the work surface.
  • a plurality of light sources in particular a plurality of LED light sources (light emitting diodes)
  • optical devices like for example a corresponding number of shaped lenses, arranged between the light source and the surface of the object to be lit up, hereafter also known as work surface, or else a suitably curved reflecting surface, arranged on the opposite side to the plurality of light sources with respect to the work surface.
  • the shaped lenses or the reflecting surface are able to converge the light emitted by all of these LED light sources in a well-defined area, which comprises the work surface.
  • the devices used today are substantially bulky.
  • the rotation of the device about its barycentral horizontal axis is made possible thanks to one or two pins that are positioned laterally in a position outside of the head.
  • Such a configuration substantially hinders and/or impedes the mobility of the dentist.
  • the general purpose of the present invention is to solve the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art in an extremely simple, cost-effective and particularly functional manner.
  • Another purpose is to provide a compact lighting device capable of defining the shape and size of the spot of light that can be obtained on the work surface.
  • a lighting device is provided that allows both the overall weight and the cooling requirements of the dental lamp to be limited.
  • the device according to the invention has a smaller bulk than those commonly used.
  • the lighting device in question is wholly indicated with 10, and in the illustrated examples, according to the present invention, it comprises a pair of power LEDs 11, each associated with a primary collimation group 12 and a secondary reflector 13.
  • the two LEDs 11 are also housed on the same dissipator 14.
  • the lighting device is symmetrical with respect to an axis, indicated with Z in a cartesian reference system shown in figures 1 and 2 .
  • the primary collimation groups 12 have the task of converging the light radiation coming from the two LEDs 11 in two respective cones, the vertices of which converge in the first focus of an ellipsoid, and the surfaces of which intersect the surface of said ellipsoid defining two areas at which said secondary reflectors 13 are arranged.
  • This optical arrangement allows a virtual image of the emission area of each LED to be defined, positioned at the first focus of the ellipsoid.
  • the optical system according to the present invention whilst still consisting of a light source that is not point-shaped, allows the beam of light emitted by the light sources to be concentrated close to the second focus.
  • each reflector 13 is made by putting together a plurality of facets.
  • Each of these facets projects the virtual image by exploiting the optical properties of the ellipsoid, even if the surface of the reflectors does not perfectly coincide with that of the ellipsoid. Consequently, the projection of the light beams coming from the LEDs does not pass perfectly to the second focus, but a concentration of the beam is obtained in any case.
  • This scheme therefore allows two or more light sources to be used, arranged a certain distance apart, symmetrically with respect to the axis Z, and consequently a certain distance from said axis Z, as if they were actually situated on it.
  • the axis Z therefore constitutes the optical axis of the lighting device 10 as a whole, coinciding with that which would be the optical axis of a single reflector with elliptical curvature used instead of the two secondary reflectors 13 of the lighting device 10 as shown according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • the light flow is able to be concentrated in a simple manner and a light image according to the specific needs defined previously can be obtained.
  • a further consequence of this arrangement of the components of the lighting device 10 according to the present invention is that of allowing the focalisation with respect to the reflector to be maintained by moving the group consisting of the two LED light sources 11 and the corresponding primary collimation groups 12 along the axis Z, defining the shape and size of the light spot on the work surface.
  • the LED light sources 11 are housed on the same dissipator 14, suitably equipped with fins 15 to increase the dissipation surface.
  • the material of the LEDs is suitably selected from those that emit a light radiation in the range of reference trichromaticity coordinates.
  • the lighting device 10 shall be installed inside a box-shaped body that may or may not comprise a screen at the area crossed by the light beam emitted by the secondary reflectors 13.
  • the device 10 has a pin 18 suitable for allowing it to rotate about a barycentral horizontal axis 16.
  • Such a pin 18 is placed at the barycentre 21 of the device 10.
  • the two handles 19 are arranged behind, and no longer at the side of, the reflectors 13 giving the structure substantial compactness.
  • the compact lighting device according to the present invention has the following advantages with respect to the solutions of the prior art.
  • the particular arrangement of the optical elements used allows a plurality of LED light sources to be used whose radiation is, however, emitted as if it came from a single point-shaped source, with the advantage of allowing optimal design of the reflecting surfaces.
  • the work surface is hit by two (or more) optical beams coming from two (or more) distinct axial directions, with the advantage of substantially reducing the shadows due to objects placed between the lighting device and the work surface.
  • An important characteristic of the lighting device according to the invention is the possibility of axial focalisation of the light sources with respect to the secondary reflectors.
  • the choice of suitable materials allows a light radiation with the characteristics (trichromaticity coordinates, color rendering, absence of ultraviolet, low blue content) required in the field of dentistry to be obtained.
  • the shapes of the lighting device of the invention can be different from the one shown only as a non-limiting example in the drawings, just as the materials can also be different.
