Definitions

  • Embodiments of the present invention provide a reflector for a street lamp.
  • Street lamps are used in particular as LED street light (LED Light Emitting Diode - light emitting diode), for the illumination of outdoor facilities, such as sports fields, parking lots or even industrial plants or in multi-purpose halls used.
  • Modified lighting with the result of improved light distribution curves are particularly interesting for use in such applications, where changing environmental influences, such as rain, fog, other changing visibility, including in industrial plants (steam generation, changes in natural light, in measurement and test systems in Laboratories or manufacturing facilities, etc.).
  • the angular distribution of a street lamp should have a so-called bat shape (bat wing shape) along the longitudinal direction of the road. That's not all.
  • a road surface is not normally an ideal surface for diffuse reflection (Lambertian reflection) and has a mixture of directional and diffuse reflection.
  • the amount of light reflected from a street and perceived by a viewer depends on the relative position of the fixture, the observer, and the point of interest on the street.
  • light with a certain amount illuminates a point on the street opposite the lamp, compared to the case where the point under consideration between the lamp and the The viewer is reflecting a greater portion of the light back from the street instead of being reflected and viewed along the street.
  • the distribution of the light intensity along the width direction of the road is not homogeneous or symmetrical, but with more light on the roadside opposite the lamp.
  • the directional reflection is stronger. This causes an even greater amount of light to be distributed from the luminaire to the opposite side of the street.
  • a larger amount of light should illuminate the area under the luminaire, as a greater portion of the light striking that area is reflected to the sky.
  • the reflection is higher; thus a lower intensity is needed to reach a certain brightness level.
  • the lighting requirement for road light is complicated and the light distribution and intensity differ between dry and wet road surface.
  • Embodiments of the present invention provide a reflector for a street lamp having an opening for a light source and a reflector surface extending away from the opening in a central radiation direction without redirecting light of the light source along the central radiation direction.
  • the reflector surface is subdivided in the direction of the central emission direction into bands which connect continuously along band edges.
  • the band edges have at least one section consisting of contiguously and differentially attached curve segments in the form of conical curves, the section having a first point, in FIG wherein a curvature vector of the section faces inwardly and has a second point in which the curvature vector faces outward.
  • a reflector can be provided which allows homogeneous light distribution and can be produced by conventional methods, when the reflector surface of the reflector is subdivided into bands which continuously adjoin one another along band edges.
  • the subdivision of the reflector into bands offers a high number of degrees of freedom for the realization of the reflector.
  • the continuous connection of the bands allows the reflector to be produced by conventional means, such as injection molding.
  • the configuration of the at least one portion of the band edges enables the curvature vector of the portion to point inwardly in the first point and the curvature vector outwardly in the second point to have a design of the reflector surface with both concave and convex surfaces and thus a high number of degrees of freedom in the design of the reflector surface.
  • a reflector for a street lamp can be provided, which allows both a more homogeneous illumination, as well as easily produced by conventional means.
  • curve segments of adjacent band edges may be associated with each other and the reflector surface may each have a connecting line between starting points of two mutually associated curve segments and between end points of the two associated curve segments, so that the two associated curve segments together with the connecting lines form the circumference of a reflector part surface.
  • the reflector can be subdivided into a plurality of reflector partial surfaces, which can have different shapes and sizes depending on the position on the reflector. For example, each reflector sub-area (also referred to as patch), light in a predetermined range (for example, according to a DIN standard) reflect the road.
  • the band edges can have at least one section in which, at a first point, a curvature vector of the section points inwards and in a second point the curvature vector of the section points outwards.
  • a first curve segment of a first band edge and a second curve segment of a second band edge which leads to the first band edge in the direction of the central emission direction adjacent, having curvature vectors pointing inwardly with respect to the reflector (ie into the reflector).
  • a reflector part surface which is bounded by this first curve segment and the second curve segment, therefore bulges outwards.
  • the reflector surface is therefore concave in this region of the reflector partial surface.
  • a third curve segment (which, for example, connects continuously and differentially to the first curve segment) and a fourth curve segment (which, for example, adjoins the second curve segment continuously and differentially), which is adjacent to the third curve segment in the direction of the central emission direction, can have curvature vectors which face outward with respect to the reflector (ie away from the reflector).
  • a second, limited by the third curve segment and the fourth curve segment reflector surface can therefore bulge towards the reflector.
  • the reflector surface may be convexly curved in this region of the second reflector part surface.
  • adjacent reflector partial surfaces for example, have alternately different directions of curvature.
  • this angular difference between two tangents at two checkpoints (eg, start point and end point) of a curve segment may be greater than 10 degrees.
  • the reflector may have a back reflector and a front reflector.
  • the front reflector may be subdivided into a first number of bands, and the back reflector may be divided into a second number of bands which is different (e.g., larger) than the first number of bands.
  • the front reflector and the rear reflector each have a band area in which they consist of bands.
  • An extension of the band region of the back reflector in the direction of the central emission direction may be greater than an extension of the band region of the front reflector in the direction of the central emission direction.
  • the reflector 100 has an opening 101 for a luminous means 3.
  • the bulb 3 is in the Fig. 1b . 3 and 4b symbolically represented with a circular area.
  • the luminous means 3 may be a so-called LED cluster, which has a plurality of LEDs.
  • a base of the LED cluster 3 can be chosen arbitrarily, and does not necessarily have to be circular, as shown in the figures.
  • the luminous means 100 has a reflector surface 103.
  • the reflector surface 103 is located in the interior of the reflector 100 and serves to reflect light emitted by the luminous means 3 in order to produce a predetermined light distribution for the street lamp.
  • the reflector 100 is arranged in a three-dimensional XYZ coordinate system.
  • the XYZ coordinate system has an X-axis, a Y-axis and a Z-axis which are perpendicular to each other and thus form the directions of the space.
  • the reflector surface 103 extends away from the opening 101 in a central emission direction 105, without redirecting light of the luminous means 3 along the central emission direction 105.
  • the mean emission direction 105 runs along the Z axis and thus forms a normal of an XY plane spanned by the X axis and the Y axis.
  • the reflector surface 103 does not deflect light from the luminous means 3 along the central emission direction 105.
  • light which is emitted by the luminous means 3 in the direction of the central emission direction 105 does not strike the reflector surface 103 and is thus not deflected, but strikes one directly illuminating area (such as a street).
  • the reflector 100 has no so-called bridge structure between the opening 100 (for the luminous means 3) and a light exit opening 107 of the reflector 100.
  • the reflector surface 103 is subdivided in the direction of the central emission direction 105 into bands 109a to 109g and 111a to 111d, which adjoin one another continuously along band edges (without jump) and (optionally) non-differentially.
  • Each band 109a to 109g, 111a to 111d can have a first band edge, for example an upper band edge, and a second band edge, for example a lower band edge, which encompasses the band 109a to 109g, 111a to 111d (at least in the direction of the central emission direction 105 ) limit.
  • the band edges have at least a portion consisting of contiguously and differentially attached curve segments in the form of conical curves, the portion having a first point at which a curvature vector of the portion points inwardly and has a second point at which the curvature vector pointing to the outside.
  • one of the band edges of the reflector has such a portion or a plurality of band edges of the reflector.
  • a first band edge 113a of a band 109c which is also a second band edge of a band 109b of the reflector 100, has a first curve segment 115a in the form of a first conical curve and a second curve segment 115b in the form of a second conical curve.
  • the first curve segment 115a and the second curve segment 115b merge into one another continuously and differentially.
  • a curvature vector of the first curve segment 115a points inwards (that is to say in the reflector 100), while a curvature vector of the second curve segment 115b faces outward (ie away from the reflector 100).
  • the first curve segment 115a therefore bulges outward with respect to the reflector 100, ie is concavely curved, and the second curve segment 115b bulges inward with respect to the reflector 100 and is therefore convexly curved.
  • curve segments of adjacent band edges can be assigned to one another and the reflector surface 103 can each have a connecting line between starting points of two mutually associated curve segments and between end points of two associated curve segments, so that two associated curve segments together with the connecting lines between their starting points and end points the scope of reflector partial surfaces (also referred to as patches) form.
  • the reflector surface 103 can be divided into reflector partial surfaces whose convexities can be set via the starting points and end points of the curve segments delimiting them.
  • Such reflector partial surfaces are designated, for example, by the reference numerals 51, 52, 53 and 54, and in FIG Fig. 2 shown.
  • the reflector part surface 53 is spanned by a first band edge 113b of a band 109d and a second band edge 113c of the band 109d and two connecting lines 116a, 116b from the first band edge 113b of the band 109d to the second band edge 113c of the band 109d.
  • the connecting lines between the starting points or end points of the individual curve segments of the bands 109a to 109g, 111a to 111d may be straight lines.
  • Adjacent sections of a band edge can either meet in a bent edge of the reflector surface 103 or terminate on an outer surface of the reflector surface 103.
  • Such a bending edge 117 is in Fig. 1a shown. At this bending edge 117, a first section of the strip edge 113c meets with a second section of the strip edge 113c adjacent thereto.
  • This bending edge 117 may, for example, lie in a symmetry plane of the reflector 100.
  • Adjacent sections of a band edge, which meet at a bending edge 117 of the reflector 100, may belong to different sub-modules.
  • the first portion of the band edge 113c may belong to the first sub-module 32a of the back reflector 32 and the second portion of the band edge 113c adjacent to the first portion may belong to the second sub-module 32b of the back reflector 32.
  • the band edges 109a to 109g, 111a to 111d are respectively disposed in mutually parallel band edge planes.
  • the mean emission direction 105 can form a normal of these mutually parallel band edge planes.
  • the band edge planes are spanned by the X-axis and the Y-axis and are spaced apart in the Z-direction, ie along the direction of the central emission direction 105.
  • the XY planes in which the band edges run are thus perpendicular to the plane of symmetry of the reflector 100 and the boundary plane in which the interface of the front reflector 31 and the back reflector 32 lies. Distances between two consecutive band edges in the direction of the emission direction 105 are therefore constant in the direction of the central emission direction 105.
  • the heights of the individual bands 109a to 109g, 111a to 111d are constant, respectively.
  • band edge distances of the bands 109a to 109g, 111a to 111d may increase with increasing distance to the aperture 101 (with increasing Z).
  • a first distance between two band edges of a first band (eg, band 109a) may be less than a second distance between two band edges of one band band second band (for example, the band 109e), which is arranged in the direction of the central emission direction 105 after the first band 109a.
  • the reflector 100 may form an illumination system or a light source together with the luminous means 3, and the mean emission direction 105 may be, for example, an average emission of the luminous means 3 (for example averaged over the angular distribution of the luminous means 3).
  • Adjacent bands are constantly but not differentially connected to each other.
  • the reflector 100 has kinks between adjacent bands.
  • An extension of the reflector 100 in the X-direction that is to say along a degree of intersection of the boundary plane and that of a band edge plane, can be selected to be at least 3.5 times as large as an extension of the luminous means 3 along these cutting levels.
