- the surface region 41 for this purpose have a plurality of small reflector surfaces, which are preferably curved.
- the optical element 4 may be designed so teillicht admirably appear that each of the light generated by each of the LED light sources 3 partially passes through the optical element 4. The light can thus escape upwards and be used to generate indirect lighting.
- the luminaire is preferably designed as a pendant luminaire or as a floor lamp.
- the optical element 4 may be formed by a film.
- the reflection of the light taking place on the optical element 4 can be referred to as "secondary reflection".
- the LED light sources 3 may advantageously be arranged between the raster elements 1.
- the design can in particular be such that the raster elements 1 are connected to one another in a light-tight manner at their downwardly pointing end regions. In this way, it can be avoided that a viewer who looks from below at the grid elements 1, can see directly into the areas between the grid elements 1 and is confronted in this way with higher, undesirable luminance.
- the LED light sources 3 each have a primary optic element, for example in the form of a lens or a reflector.

- optically active element 6 can be advantageously achieve a further increase in the luminous area and thus a further reduction in luminance.
- the entire light entry opening forms a luminous surface.
- the optically active element 6 may comprise a lens, a foil or a prism plate or consist of a lens, a foil or a prism plate.
- the optically active element 6 can be made diffuse or clear.
- the design of the luminaire can be such that the light from the LED light source 3 is initially - at least partially - reflected on the surface region 41 of the optical element 4, such that it subsequently enters at least one of the raster elements 1, and although through the relevant light inlet opening 5 through - optionally with passage through the optically active element 6 - and then the at least one raster element 1 - either directly or after interaction on the inwardly facing reflection surfaces of the at least one raster element 1 - leaves at least one raster element 1 via the light exit opening 6.
- Fig. 1 this is indicated by corresponding arrows.
- the design is furthermore such that these elements 6 are not all of identical design, but that they are designed differently.
- the optically active elements 6 have a broader scattering effect in an edge region of the raster elements 1 than in a central region of the raster elements 1. In this way, a particularly suitable light output of the luminaire can be achieved, in particular in the case of a matrix-like arrangement of the raster elements 1. For example, this can produce a combination of diffused direct light and directed, glare-free direct light.
- the grid elements 1 do not necessarily have to be of identical construction.
- the choice of material for the grid elements 1 are basically no restrictions.
- highly reflective material or scattering material may be used.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine entsprechende verbesserte Leuchte anzugeben; insbesondere soll mit der Leuchte eine reduzierte potenzielle Blendwirkung erzielbar sein.The invention has for its object to provide a corresponding improved luminaire; In particular, the lamp should be able to achieve a reduced potential glare effect.
Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung mit dem in dem unabhängigen Anspruch genannten Gegenstand gelöst. Besondere Ausführungsarten der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved according to the invention with the object mentioned in the independent claim. Particular embodiments of the invention are indicated in the dependent claims.
Gemäß der Erfindung ist eine Leuchte vorgesehen, die mehrere, in einer Ebene angeordnete, reflektierend gestaltete Rasterelemente aufweist, wobei durch die Rasterelemente eine Lichtabstrahlrichtung festgelegt ist. Weiterhin weist die Leuchte mehrere LED-Lichtquellen auf, wobei jede der LED-Lichtquellen zur Erzeugung eines Lichts vorgesehen ist und dabei die Leuchte so ausgestaltet ist, dass das Licht zumindest teilweise wenigstens eines der Rasterelemente in der Lichtabstrahlrichtung verlässt. Dabei ist jede der LED-Lichtquellen derart ausgerichtet angeordnet, dass sie das von ihr erzeugte Licht in einen Halbraum abgibt, der der Lichtabstrahlrichtung abgewandt ist.According to the invention, a luminaire is provided which has a plurality of arranged in a plane, reflective designed grid elements, wherein a light emission direction is determined by the grid elements. Furthermore, the luminaire has a plurality of LED light sources, wherein each of the LED light sources is provided for generating a light and the luminaire is designed such that the light at least partially leaves at least one of the raster elements in the light emission direction. In this case, each of the LED light sources is arranged aligned such that it emits the light generated by it in a half-space, which faces away from the light emission direction.
Durch diese Orientierung der LED-Lichtquellen lässt sich eine potenzielle Blendung eines Betrachters praktisch ausschließen.This orientation of the LED light sources virtually eliminates potential glare from an observer.
Vorzugsweise sind dabei die Rasterelemente jeweils topfförmig um eine, parallel zu der Lichtabstrahlrichtung verlaufende Hauptachse herum gestaltet. Durch eine topfförmige Gestaltung der Rasterelemente lässt sich eine besonders geeignete Lichtlenkung durch die Rasterelemente erzielen.Preferably, the grid elements are each cup-shaped around a, parallel to the Lichtabstrahlrichtung extending main axis around. By a cup-shaped design of the grid elements, a particularly suitable light steering can be achieved by the grid elements.
Vorzugsweise weist die Leuchte weiterhin ein optisches Element mit einem zumindest teilweise reflektierenden Oberflächenbereich auf, wobei die Leuchte so gestaltet ist, dass jeweils das von jeder der LED-Lichtquellen erzeugte Licht zumindest teilweise an dem Oberflächenbereich reflektiert wird und anschließend in wenigstens eines der Rasterelemente einfällt. Durch die Reflexion des Lichts an dem Oberflächenbereich lässt sich eine Reduzierung der Intensität erzielen. Zudem wird die "punktförmige" Lichterscheinung der LED-Lichtquelle auf dem Oberflächenbereich vergrößert. Außerdem lässt sich das Licht jeder LED-Lichtquelle durch das optische Element besonders effizient in das wenigstens eine Rasterelement lenken.Preferably, the luminaire further comprises an optical element with an at least partially reflecting surface area, wherein the luminaire is designed such that in each case the light generated by each of the LED light sources is at least partially reflected at the surface area and then incident in at least one of the grid elements. By reflecting the light at the surface area, a reduction in intensity can be achieved. In addition, the "punctiform" light appearance of the LED light source on the surface area is increased. In addition, the light of each LED light source can be directed by the optical element particularly efficiently into the at least one raster element.
Vorzugsweise erstreckt sich dabei der Oberflächenbereich des optischen Elements zumindest in erster Näherung parallel zu der Ebene. Hierdurch lässt sich eine besonders geeignete Umlenkung des Lichts in die Rasterelemente erzielen. Außerdem lässt sich auf diese Weise die Leuchte mit besonders geringen Abmessungen parallel zu der Lichtabstrahlrichtung bzw. besonders flach gestalten.Preferably, the surface region of the optical element extends at least to a first approximation parallel to the plane. This makes it possible to achieve a particularly suitable deflection of the light into the raster elements. In addition, can be in this way the lamp with very small dimensions parallel to the Lichtabstrahlrichtung or make particularly flat.
Vorzugsweise ist der Oberflächenbereich des optischen Elements strukturiert, insbesondere derart, dass er diffus streuend wirkt. Auf diese Weise lassen sich die Leuchtdichten besonders effizient reduzieren.Preferably, the surface region of the optical element is structured, in particular such that it acts diffusely scattering. In this way, the luminance can be reduced particularly efficient.
Vorzugsweise weist der Oberflächenbereich des optischen Elements mehrere Reflektorflächen auf, die insbesondere gekrümmt geformt sind.Preferably, the surface region of the optical element has a plurality of reflector surfaces, which in particular are curved in shape.
Vorzugsweise ist das optische Element derart teillichtdurchlässig gestaltet, dass jeweils das von jeder der LED-Lichtquellen erzeugte Licht teilweise das optische Element durchsetzt. Auf diese Weise lässt sich mit der Leuchte eine besonders geeignete indirekte Beleuchtung erzeugen, insbesondere, wenn die Leuchte als Pendelleuchte oder Stehleuchte gestaltet ist.Preferably, the optical element is designed to be partially transparent so that in each case the light generated by each of the LED light sources partially passes through the optical element. In this way, the lamp can produce a particularly suitable indirect lighting, especially if the lamp is designed as a pendant or floor lamp.
Herstellungstechnisch vorteilhaft ist das optische Element durch eine Folie gebildet.In terms of manufacturing technology, the optical element is advantageously formed by a film.
Vorzugsweise sind die LED-Lichtquellen zwischen den Rasterelementen angeordnet. Auf diese Weise lässt sich erzielen, dass diejenigen Bereiche, an denen sich besonders hohe Leuchtdichten ergeben, also kleine "Umgebungen" der LED-Lichtquellen, besonders weit von denjenigen Stellen entfernt sind, an denen das Licht in die Rasterelemente eintritt, also von den "Bodenbereichen" der Rasterelemente.Preferably, the LED light sources are arranged between the raster elements. In this way it can be achieved that those areas where particularly high luminances result, ie small "surroundings" of the LED light sources, are particularly far removed from the places where the light enters the grid elements, ie from the " Floor areas "of the grid elements.
Vorzugsweise weisen die LED-Lichtquellen jeweils ein primäroptisches Element auf, beispielsweise in Form einer Linse oder eines Reflektors. Hierdurch lässt sich die Lichtlenkung zwischen den LED-Lichtquellen und den Rasterelementen besonders geeignet beeinflussen. Vorzugsweise ist dabei das primäroptische Element ein Strahlteiler oder umfasst einen Strahlteiler.Preferably, the LED light sources each have a primary optic element, for example in the form of a lens or a reflector. As a result, the light control between the LED light sources and the raster elements can be particularly suitably influenced. In this case, the primary-optic element is preferably a beam splitter or comprises a beam splitter.
Erfindungsgemäß weist jedes der Rasterelemente eine, in die Lichtabstrahlrichtung weisende Lichtaustrittsöffnung und auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite eine Lichteintrittsöffnung auf, wobei in der Lichteintrittsöffnung ein optisch wirksames Element angeordnet ist. Durch dieses optisch wirksame Element lässt sich eine nochmals vergrößerte leuchtende Fläche erzielen; insbesondere lässt sich hierdurch das Licht geeignet auf die die gesamte Lichteintrittsöffnung verteilen. Vorzugsweise umfasst hierzu das optisch wirksame Element eine Linse, eine Folie oder eine Prismenplatte. Das optisch wirksame Element kann dabei vorteilhaft diffus oder klar gestaltet sein.According to the invention, each of the raster elements has a light exit opening pointing in the light emission direction and a light entry opening on the opposite side, an optically active element being arranged in the light entry opening. By means of this optically active element, a further enlarged luminous surface can be achieved; In particular, this makes it possible to distribute the light suitably to the entire light entry opening. For this purpose, the optically active element preferably comprises a lens, a foil or a prism plate. The optically active element can advantageously be made diffuse or clear.
Erfindungsgemäß sind die optisch wirksamen Elemente der Rasterelemente unterschiedlich gestaltet; dabei weisen sie in einem Randgebiet der Rasterelemente eine breiter streuende Wirkung auf, als in einem mittleren Gebiet der Rasterelemente. Hierdurch lässt sich beispielsweise eine Kombination aus diffusem direktem Licht und gerichtetem, entblendetem direktem Licht realisieren. Durch unterschiedlich gestaltete optisch wirksame Elemente lässt sich auch Einfluss auf die Lichtmengen nehmen, die jedem der Rasterelemente zugeführt werden.According to the invention, the optically active elements of the grid elements are designed differently; In this case, they have a broader scattering effect in an edge region of the raster elements than in a middle region of the raster elements. As a result, for example, a combination of diffused direct light and directed, glare-free direct light can be realized. By differently designed optically effective elements can also influence on the amounts of light that are supplied to each of the grid elements.

Jede der LED-Lichtquellen 3 ist derart ausgerichtet angeordnet, dass sie das von ihr erzeugte Licht - wie in
Durch diese Ausrichtung und Gestaltung der LED-Lichtquellen 3 lässt sich vermeiden, dass ein Betrachter der Leuchte, der von unten oder schräg unten auf die Rasterelemente 1 blickt direkt in LEDs blickt und so geblendet wird.By this orientation and design of the
Beim Ausführungsbeispiel weist die Leuchte weiterhin ein optisches Element 4 mit einem zumindest teilweise reflektierenden Oberflächenbereich 41 auf. Dabei ist die Leuchte so gestaltet, dass jeweils das von jeder der LED-Lichtquellen 3 erzeugte Licht zumindest teilweise an dem Oberflächenbereich 41 reflektiert wird und anschließend in wenigstens eines der Rasterelemente 1 einfällt. Durch das optische Element 4 lassen sich in einem ersten Schritt die Leuchtdichten der quasi punktförmigen LED-Lichtquellen 3 reduzieren, da an dem reflektierenden Oberflächenbereich 41 eine Reduzierung der Intensität des Lichts stattfindet und gleichzeitig die "punktförmige" Lichtquelle vergrößert wird. Es wird also eine vergrößerte leuchtende Fläche mit reduzierter Leuchtdichte bewirkt.In the exemplary embodiment, the luminaire furthermore has an
Wie beim gezeigten Beispiel der Fall, kann die Leuchte so gestaltet sein, dass sich der Oberflächenbereich 41 des optischen Elements 4 zumindest in erster Näherung parallel zu der Ebene E erstreckt. Beispielsweise kann das optische Element 4 als Teil eines Gehäuses 7 der Leuchte ausgebildet sein, insbesondere als Dachfläche des Gehäuses 7. Für eine besonders geeignete Umlenkung des von der LED-Lichtquelle 3 stammenden Lichts in das wenigstens eine Rasterelement 1 kann der Oberflächenbereich 41 des optischen Elements 4 strukturiert gestaltet sein, insbesondere derart, dass er diffus streuend wirkt. In
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführung, die in
Herstellungstechnisch vorteilhaft kann das optische Element 4 durch eine Folie gebildet sein.Manufacturing technology advantageous, the
Die an dem optischen Element 4 stattfindende Reflexion des Lichts lässt sich als "Sekundärreflexion" bezeichnen.The reflection of the light taking place on the
Wie im gezeigten Beispiel der Fall, können die LED-Lichtquellen 3 vorteilhaft zwischen den Rasterelementen 1 angeordnet sein. Dabei kann die Gestaltung insbesondere derart sein, dass die Rasterelemente 1 an ihren nach unten weisenden Endbereichen lichtdicht miteinander verbunden sind. Auf diese Weise lässt sich vermeiden, dass ein Betrachter, der von unten auf die Rasterelemente 1 blickt, direkt in die Bereiche zwischen die Rasterelemente 1 sehen kann und auf diese Weise mit höheren, unerwünschten Leuchtdichten konfrontiert wird.As in the example shown, the case, the
Vorzugsweise weisen die LED-Lichtquellen 3 jeweils ein primäroptisches Element, beispielsweise in Form einer Linse oder eines Reflektors auf. Alternativ können die LED-Lichtquellen 3 als solche "freistrahlend" gestaltet sein.Preferably, the
Bei dem primäroptischen Element kann es sich beispielsweise um eine klare Linse aus Kunststoff oder Glas handeln. Mit einem solchen primäroptischen Element lässt sich gezielt Einfluss auf die Art und Weise nehmen, in der das Licht auf den Oberflächenbereich 41 gelenkt wird. Das primäroptische Element kann auch ein Strahlteiler sein oder einen Strahlteiler umfassen. Hierdurch lässt sich besonders geeignet sicherstellen, dass das Licht effizient in das wenigstens eine Rasterelement 1 bzw. in die Rasterelemente 1 gelenkt wird.For example, the primary optic element may be a clear plastic or glass lens. Such a primary-optic element can specifically influence the manner in which the light is directed onto the
Jedes der Rasterelemente 1 weist eine, in die Lichtabstrahlrichtung R bzw. nach unten weisende Lichtaustrittsöffnung 2 und auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite bzw. oben eine Lichteintrittsöffnung 5 auf. Dabei ist vorgesehen, dass - wie in
Durch das optisch wirksame Element 6 lässt sich vorteilhaft eine weitere Vergrößerung der leuchtenden Fläche erzielen und somit eine weitergehende Absenkung der Leuchtdichte. Insbesondere lässt sich erzielen, dass die gesamte Lichteintrittsöffnung eine leuchtende Fläche bildet. Beispielsweise kann das optisch wirksame Element 6 eine Linse, eine Folie oder eine Prismenplatte umfassen oder aus einer Linse, einer Folie oder einer Prismenplatte bestehen. Dabei kann das optisch wirksame Element 6 diffus oder klar gestaltet sein.By optically active element 6 can be advantageously achieve a further increase in the luminous area and thus a further reduction in luminance. In particular, it can be achieved that the entire light entry opening forms a luminous surface. For example, the optically active element 6 may comprise a lens, a foil or a prism plate or consist of a lens, a foil or a prism plate. In this case, the optically active element 6 can be made diffuse or clear.
Die Gestaltung der Leuchte kann dementsprechend derart sein, dass das Licht von der LED-Lichtquelle 3 ausgehend zunächst - zumindest teilweise - an dem Oberflächenbereich 41 des optischen Elements 4 reflektiert wird, derart, dass es im Weiteren in wenigstens eines der Rasterelemente 1 eintritt, und zwar durch die betreffende Lichteintrittsöffnung 5 hindurch - gegebenenfalls unter Durchtritt durch das optisch wirksame Element 6 - und anschließend das wenigstens eine Rasterelement 1 - entweder direkt oder nach Wechselwirkung an den nach innen weisenden Reflexionsflächen des wenigstens einen Rasterelements 1 - das wenigstens eine Rasterelement 1 über die Lichtaustrittsöffnung 6 verlässt. In
Mit Bezug auf die optisch wirksamen Elemente 6 ist die Gestaltung weiterhin derart, dass diese Elemente 6 nicht alle baugleich ausgeführt sind, sondern dass sie unterschiedlich gestaltet sind. Die optisch wirksamen Elemente 6 weisen in einem Randgebiet der Rasterelemente 1 eine breiter streuende Wirkung auf, als in einem mittleren Gebiet der Rasterelemente 1. Auf diese Weise lässt sich insbesondere bei einer matrixförmigen Anordnung der Rasterelemente 1 eine besonders geeignete Lichtabgabe der Leuchte erzielen. Beispielsweise lässt sich hierdurch eine Kombination von diffusem direktem Licht und gerichtetem, entblendetem direktem Licht erzeugen.With regard to the optically active elements 6, the design is furthermore such that these elements 6 are not all of identical design, but that they are designed differently. The optically active elements 6 have a broader scattering effect in an edge region of the
Auch lässt sich durch entsprechend unterschiedlich ausgebildete optisch wirksame Elemente 6 für jedes der Rasterelemente 1 eine bestimmte Lichtmenge bewirken. Wie bereits erwähnt, müssen auch die Rasterelemente 1 nicht zwingend baugleich ausgeführt sein.Also can be effected by correspondingly differently shaped optically active elements 6 for each of the
Hinsichtlich der Wahl des Materials für die Rasterelemente 1 bestehen grundsätzlich keine Einschränkungen. Es kann beispielsweise hoch reflektierendes Material verwendet werden oder streuendes Material.With regard to the choice of material for the
