  • LEDs as lighting means are increasingly used in the field of outdoor lighting, especially in street lighting. These are the conventional bulbs in Energy consumption and the frequency of necessary maintenance often superior.
  • LED-based luminaires it is not possible to resort to conventional luminaire designs because the luminous means in the case of an LED luminaire are in the form of many small point-shaped light sources which require other optical deflecting means, in particular reflectors, to produce a desired light distribution.
  • Desired light distributions can be adjusted for example by the special design of the support surfaces on which the LEDs are arranged. However, if there are bends, these solutions are often very expensive. Other concepts include optical devices such as refractive elements or reflectors on LEDs. However, these can not be aligned in all directions to produce a desired light distribution, especially when the LEDs are arranged in a recess of the lamp component. Furthermore, the design of LED lights are often limited by the need to provide a heat sink immediately in the vicinity of the LEDs.

  • the bulge 34b is offset from the bulges 34a by approximately 90 ° and has an outwardly curved shape, for example in the form of a circular arc section, while the bulges 34a have an approximately rectangular shape.
  • the reflector sections 32 are arranged in the channel 3 of the luminaire component 1 such that the board 8 lies between the bottom 32a of the reflector section 32 and the bottom of the channel 3 and the LEDs 2 are each located in the region of one of the openings 34.
  • an optical unit 36 is used as the relevant LED 2 associated optical device, as in Fig. 6 alone in a perspective view and in Fig. 7 and 8th in a plan view and a cross-sectional view, respectively;
  • Fig. 9 shows an assembled and a partially inserted optical unit 36 in a perspective view.
  • the optical unit 36 is preferably in one piece and also preferably made of plastic and has a shell-shaped reflector 38, a support edge 40, an elastic locking lug 42 and a reflecting surface 44 on the opening of the shell-shaped reflector 38 side facing and two reflecting surfaces 46 and 48 on the the opening of the shell-shaped reflector 38 opposite side.
  • the interior of the optical unit 36 has a cavity bounded by the reflective surfaces 44 and 46 and open upwards to the scalloped reflector 38, so that light in this cavity is on the one hand to the reflecting surfaces 44 and 46 and on the other the inner surface of the shell-shaped reflector 38 can propagate out to be reflected there.
  • the area of the reflecting surfaces 46 and 48 there is a gap 50 between the lower edge 52 of the scalloped reflector 38 and the reflecting surfaces 46 and 48, so that light can escape from said cavity through this gap 50 to radiate directly from this gap 50 to become or to the reflection surface 48 to be reflected.
  • the associated LED 2 is located as in Fig.
  • the annular reflector 30 consists of six individual parts 32, it may also consist of more or fewer individual parts, or may be formed integrally as a whole, so as to form a one-piece, self-contained, e.g. forms annular groove.
  • the support rim 40 has a rear approximately semi-circular portion 60 with circumferentially extending arcuate slots 62 which lies on the side facing away from the opening of the scalloped reflector 38 side, and two deeper, ie closer to the bottom of the optical unit 36 lying extensions 64th which are connected by a step 66 to the section 60 and extend forward over a relatively short portion of the circumference, so that they, as best in Fig. 7 can be seen to form two lateral extensions on the side of the approximately circular cylindrical body of the optical unit 36, the front edge of which is formed by the substantially annular, the opening of the shell-shaped reflector 38 opposite reflecting surface 44. Below the edge 60, the elastic locking lug 42 is provided below the edge 60.
  • the locking lug 42 and the lower side extensions 64 on the other hand is a particular orientation of the optical unit 36th given when it is inserted into the reflector 30 and the reflector portion 32.
  • an optical unit 36 attached in a tilted position wherein the step-shaped portion 66 comes to rest in the region of the bulges 34a of the opening 34 and the lateral extensions 64 of the support rim 40 engage under the bottom 32a of the reflector portion 32.
  • the latching lug 42 in the region of the recess 34b of the opening 34 against the bottom 32a of Reflector portion 32 is pressed and locked, as best in Fig. 8 can be seen, below the bottom 32 a, while the rear portion 60 of the supporting edge 40 rests on the bottom 32 a of the reflector portion 32, so that the bottom 32 a between the rear portion 60 of the supporting edge 40 and the latch is included, so that the optical Unit 36 is thereby fixed.
  • the two lateral extensions 64 on the underside of the bottom 32a ie on the side facing away from the reflector 38 side of the reflector portion 32 to the plant. This is especially in Fig. 7 to recognize where the bottom 32a is shown as a hatched area and the course of the extensions 64 is indicated below the bottom 32a.
  • the optical unit 36 can be locked in a fixed predetermined orientation with respect to the channel 3 or the channel-shaped reflector 30, this orientation being predetermined by the shape of the openings in the manufacture of the reflector section 32 or of the reflector 30.
  • the orientation of the optical unit 36 which is assigned to a respective LED 2, already fixed during manufacture. This facilitates the assembly and allows a precise alignment of the optical unit 36 according to the design specifications, without elaborate adjustments are required.
  • a flexibility in lighting design can be achieved by providing standardized reflector sections 32, each with a specific orientation of the holes (and thus the optical units to be used 38).
  • a respective individual sequence of openings with specific orientations can also be punched with a, for example, computer-controlled punching tool, in which the orientation of the punched opening can be determined individually.
  • the efficiency of the luminaire is increased.
  • these reflection surfaces can also be used advantageously for the design of the light intensity distribution.
  • the optical unit 36 is in a preferred embodiment made of plastic, wherein at least the light emitting diode 2 facing the inner surface of the shell-shaped reflector 38 and the reflective surfaces 44, 46 and 48 are reflective, in particular mirror-reflective, e.g. by a reflective coating, applying a reflective foil or the like.
  • Other parts of the optical unit, for example the back of the reflector 36, may also be reflective or mirror-like, in order to increase the efficiency and / or to achieve a specific light distribution.
  • the different orientation of the optical device formed here by the optical unit 36 is advantageously used to achieve a specific luminous intensity distribution of the luminaire, as described above.
  • the light is not on a circular design, as in the FIGS. 3a to 3c shown, restricted.
  • Umfarigsformen added with closed peripheral shapes due to the high variability with respect to adjustable light field contours by aligning the individual optical devices on the LEDs are preferred.
  • the lighting component does not need to be exposed (although this is advantageous in terms of the necessary cooling) but may also have a cover.
  • the entire light can be covered at the top by a common plastic cover to protect against environmental influences.
  • the light can be surrounded by a transparent at least in the region of the light exit surface cover.
  • the luminaire component has a plurality of grooves and / or a plurality of channel-shaped reflectors, which are preferably close to each other. These grooves or channel-shaped reflectors can in particular form a plurality of concentric circles which adjoin one another directly.
  • the luminaire component 1 has two straight, preferably parallel grooves or channel-shaped reflectors, wherein the optical devices associated with the LEDs are designed and arranged such that the optical devices in a groove formed in the lamp component is formed by a channel-shaped reflector element that emit light in the opposite direction as the optical devices in the other channel, wherein oppositely in this context may mean that the optical devices in the one channel completely or at least a majority of the light in a first Give half space (0 ° to 180 °) and leave the optical devices of the other channel the light completely or at least majority in the other half-space (180 ° to 360 °).
  • the individual optical devices in a groove can be oriented differently, for example, to bring about a light band bending or to form the light distribution in a different way.
