Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lighting device for illuminating streets, roads or paths, as well as to a corresponding lighting system for illuminating streets, roads or paths.
  • WO 2006/092538 A1 discloses a device for illuminating traffic lanes having a light source arranged at a vertical height of not more than 1 m.
  • the lighting device is mounted on a guard rail (e.g. on a guard rail placed in the middle of a highway) such that the device is preferably arranged under the position of a driver.
  • a driver can be dazzled by the light of such a lighting device.
  • a lighting device for illuminating streets, roads or paths comprising: at least one light source comprising at least one light emitting diode; at least one reflector comprising an essentially saddle-shaped reflection surface, wherein the light source is arranged in such a way that at least a part of the light emitted by the light source is directed to the reflection surface of the reflector; and wherein the light is reflected by the reflection surface in such a way that a wide light distribution of the lighting device is provided at least in a direction parallel to a surface to be illuminated and perpendicular to a main axis of the reflection surface.
  • the lighting device according to the invention is preferably mounted at a height of less than two meters, e.g. the present lighting device is preferably provided below the common position of a driver sitting in a vehicle.
  • saddle-shaped has to be understood as any structure having a mainly rounded shape with an elevated area and two laterally arranged indentations (i.e. two minima in the reflection surface) extending there from, thereby providing a surface/structure commonly known from a saddle.
  • a wide light distribution i.e. a relatively broad light distribution
  • a main axis of the reflection surface e.g. a symmetry line of the saddle-shaped reflection surface
  • the presently used light source can be provided as a relatively compact structure such that there are essentially no design limitations allowing using a specifically adapted reflector (i.e. a specifically adapted and arranged reflection surface).
  • a specifically adapted reflector i.e. a specifically adapted and arranged reflection surface.
  • the light emitted by the lighting device can be adjusted in such a way that the risk for dazzling a driver can be minimized.
  • a distribution of the light can be exactly adjusted as required by the respective mounting/application conditions.
  • the reflection surface is mirror symmetrical with respect to the main axis of the reflection surface.
  • an essentially homogenous distribution of the light emitted by the lighting device can be provided in a dirpection parallel to the surface to be illuminated.
  • the reflection surface has a shape corresponding to a sector of a circle, preferably having an interior angle between 90° and 220° DEG, more preferably between 150° and 200° DEG, and even more preferably between 170° and 190° DEG. It is further preferred that in top view, the main axis of the reflection surface (i.e. the center of the elevated area) halves the reflection surface.
  • At least two indentations/minima of the reflection surface are provided at an angle between +/- 50° and +/- 90° DEG, preferably between +/- 60° and +/-85° DEG, and more preferably between +/-70° and +/- 80° DEG with respect to the main axis of the reflection surface.
  • the minima i.e. the indentations
  • the maximum width i.e. the maximum angel
  • the reflection surface does not comprise any jump discontinuities. Thereby, it is possible to provide a relatively homogenous light distribution, since thereby no overlap of the emitted light occurs.
  • the light is distributed with an angle greater than +/-50° DEG preferably greater than +/-70° DEG, and more preferably greater than +/-75° DEG with respect to the main axis of the reflection surface.
  • the light is essentially distributed over the entire shape of the reflection surface ( i.e. over the entire sector of a circle).
  • the light is distributed with an angle greater than 60° DEG preferably greater than 70° DEG, and more preferably greater than 80° DEG, and most preferably the light is distributed with an angle of about 85° DEG; preferably measured at most from a horizontal plane downwards.
  • the lighting device in a direction parallel to a surface to be illuminated and perpendicular to the main axis of the reflection surface can be provided, but also a wide light distribution perpendicular to the surface to be illuminated can be provided.
  • the at least one baffle preferably comprises an inward reflection surface for redirecting light to the reflection surface of the reflector.
  • a respective baffle can be arranged ensuring that no light is emitted parallel to the horizontal. Therefore, the baffle is preferably arranged such that it at least partially surrounds the light source in a horizontal plane and, if necessary, also above the light source (i.e. opposite to the reflection surface with respect to the light source).
  • the inward reflection surface By means of the inward reflection surface, the respective part of the emitted light is redirected to the reflection surface, thereby further usable for an illumination.
  • further baffles can be used for adjusting the shape and dimension of the emitted light.
  • the lighting device comprises a housing in which the reflector and the at least one light source are housed.
  • the reflection surface is arranged (preferably downwards) inclined (e.g. in the housing) with its main axis with respect to the horizontal plane, preferably with an angle between 20° and 60° DEG, more preferably between 30° and 50° DEG and most preferably between 35° and 45° DEG.
  • many experiments have been carried out in order to establish that the above-mentioned light distribution ranges can be provided using a saddle-shaped reflection surface which is arranged inclined with respect to the horizontal line, wherein a respective angle is dependent from the mounting height of the lighting device and from the respective surface to be illuminated.
  • the light source is a directional light source emitting light essentially only in the direction to the reflection surface of the reflector. Thereby, light losses can be minimized and also any dazzling can be further avoided.
  • the at least one light source is arranged above the main axis of the reflection surface, preferably in the center of the sector of a circle.
  • the light source preferably comprises a high brightness light emitting diode, a light emitting diode, a ray/cluster and/or a chip on board light emitting diode arrangement.
  • the lighting device comprises at least two light sources arranged with an offset with respect to the main axis of the reflection surface such that each light source emits light to a half of the mirror symmetrical shaped reflection surface.
