Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Linsenplatten-Optik für LED-Leuchten mit asymmetrischer Lichtverteilung entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 und der
Diese Druckschrift zeigt eine Umlenkung des nach hinten abgestrahlten Lichts mittels einer optisch wirksamen Rippe, welche sich innerhalb der Optik befindet und darauf fallendes Licht mittels Totalreflexion in einen günstigeren Winkelbereich umlenkt. Die geometrischen Randbedingungen, insbesonders einer gemeinsam genutzten Linsen-Außenfläche gestatten allerdings nur die Nutzbarmachung eines geringen Anteils des nach hinten abgestrahlten Lichts, weil viele Lichtstrahlen außerhalb der Totalreflexionswinkel liegen oder diese Fläche überhaupt verfehlen, oder in irrelevante Bereiche gelenkt werden und auf diese Weise viele Lichtverteilungswünsche nicht effizient bedient werden können.This document shows a deflection of the light emitted to the rear by means of an optically effective rib, which is located within the optics and deflects light falling thereon by means of total reflection in a more favorable angular range. The geometric boundary conditions, in particular a shared lens outer surface, however, only allow the utilization of a small portion of the light emitted to the rear, because many light rays are outside the total reflection angle or missing this area altogether, or are directed to irrelevant areas and in this way many light distribution wishes can not be operated efficiently.
Große Lichtablenkungen benötigen eine Optik aus mehreren Linsen oder eine Totalreflexion zur Lichtumlenkung. Die
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine geeignete Optik zu gestalten, welche den gesamten gegen den Mast oder Hauswände (die Rückseite) gerichteten und damit bisher verlorenen und störenden Teil des LED-Lichts soweit umlenkt, dass dieses Licht zur Gänze für die gewünschte Lichtverteilung nutzbar wird und auch in vielfacher Anordnung in einer Linsenplatte eine einfache, kostengünstige Herstellung aus transparentem Kunststoff erlaubt.The object of the invention is to design a suitable optics, which deflects the entire against the mast or house walls (the back) directed and thus far lost and disturbing part of the LED light so far that this light is fully usable for the desired light distribution is and even in multiple arrangement in a lens plate allows a simple, inexpensive production of transparent plastic.
Allgemein kann gesagt werden: Leuchtdioden, kurz LEDs, haben sich in der Beleuchtungstechnik als effiziente Lichtquellen durchgesetzt. Sie weisen zwar verschiedene Bauformen und Lichtqualitäten auf, unterscheiden sich in ihren lichttechnischen Eigenschaften aber relativ wenig voneinander. Die meisten LEDs sind sogenannte Cosinus-Strahler, weil diese ein Optimum an Lichtleistung und Effizienz bei geringem Herstellungsaufwand und geringer Baugröße darstellen. Die Lichtleistung pro LED ist unterschiedlich je nach innerem Aufbau und Größe des Halbleiters, trotzdem unterscheiden sich die LED-Größen äußerlich nur wenig. Daher können Optiken entwickelt werden, welche in ihren wesentlichen Parametern für eine Vielzahl von auf dem Markt befindlichen LED-Typen geeignet oder leicht adaptierbar sind. An die Optiken werden jedoch je nach Lichtplanungsaufgabe stark unterschiedliche Anforderungen an die zu erzeugende Lichtverteilung gestellt.In general it can be said: Light-emitting diodes, or LEDs for short, have established themselves as efficient light sources in lighting technology. Although they have different designs and light qualities, but differ in their lighting properties but relatively little of each other. Most LEDs are so-called cosine emitters, because they represent optimum light output and efficiency with low production costs and small size. The light output per LED is different depending on the inner structure and size of the semiconductor, but the LED sizes differ externally only slightly. Therefore, you can Optics are developed, which are suitable in their essential parameters for a variety of marketed LED types or easily adaptable. Depending on the lighting design task, however, the optics are subject to very different demands on the light distribution to be generated.
Hier ist nun eine Optik betroffen, welche insbesonders in Straßenleuchten Verwendung findet. Diese Leuchten sind hauptsächlich am Straßenrand, Gehsteigbereich oder zwischen den Fahrbahnen auf geraden Masten ohne Ausleger angeordnet, auch um sie ohne Beeinträchtigung des Verkehrs warten zu können. Das bedingt jedoch eine schräge Lichtabstrahlung, um auch die gegenüberliegende Straßenseite oder eine breitere Straße ausleuchten zu können. Zusätzlich werden Anforderungen an Blendung und Lichtverschmutzung gestellt, weshalb ein einfaches Aufneigen der Leuchten für eine breitere Ausleuchtung heutzutage nicht mehr erwünscht ist. Ein nach hinten in Richtung Mast oder Hauswand abstrahlendes Licht ist dabei zu verhindern oder abzuschatten, um die Anrainer nicht zu stören. Die Summe dieser Anforderungen erfordert daher Leuchtensysteme, deren Lichtaustrittsfläche waagrecht angeordnet ist, wobei das Licht im Wesentlichen schräg weg vom Mast abstrahlen muss.Here is an optics affected, which is used especially in street lights. These lights are mainly on the roadside, sidewalk area or between the lanes on straight masts without boom, even to be able to wait without affecting the traffic. However, this requires an oblique light emission to illuminate the opposite side of the road or a wider street. In addition, requirements for glare and light pollution are made, which is why a simple tilting the lights for a wider illumination nowadays is no longer desirable. A light radiating to the rear in the direction of the mast or house wall is to be prevented or shaded in order not to disturb the neighbors. The sum of these requirements therefore requires lighting systems whose light exit surface is arranged horizontally, with the light having to emit substantially obliquely away from the mast.
Für eine solche Leuchte bietet sich eine Lichtquelle in Form einer waagrechten, ebenen Leiterplatte an, auf welcher die LEDs in mehr oder weniger regelmäßigen Abständen zueinander angeordnet sind und ihr Licht nach unten abstrahlen. Das Licht wird durch vor die LEDs gesetzte Linsen wunschgemäß verteilt, welche in einer gemeinsamen Platte aus transparentem Material, einer sogenannten Linsenplatte integriert sind, die gleichzeitig auch den Schutz vor Feuchtigkeit und Witterung bildet.For such a luminaire, a light source in the form of a horizontal, planar printed circuit board offers, on which the LEDs are arranged at more or less regular intervals from one another and emit their light downwards. The light is distributed as desired by lenses placed in front of the LEDs, which are integrated in a common plate of transparent material, a so-called lens plate, which at the same time forms the protection against moisture and weather.
Die technische Herausforderung besteht nun darin, eine Optik für diese LEDs zu entwickeln, welche die halbkugelförmige Lichtabstrahlung der LED vollständig erfasst und genau in die benötigte Lichtverteilung umlenkt. Je besser das gelingt, umso effizienter ist die Leuchte und damit kostengünstiger im Energieverbrauch. Eine solche Optik soll darüber hinaus auch so einfach zu fertigen sein, dass sie in dutzendfacher oder gar hundertfacher Anordnung in einer solchen gemeinsamen Linsenplatte durch Spritzgießen von transparentem Kunststoff wie Plexiglas oder Polykarbonat herstellbar ist, wobei auf möglichst gleichmäßige Wandstärke mit nur geringen Masse-Anhäufungen bei den Optiken und einfache Entformbarkeit geachtet werden muss.The technical challenge now is to develop an optic for these LEDs, which completely captures the hemispherical light emission of the LED and redirects it exactly into the required light distribution. The better this succeeds, the more efficient the luminaire is and thus less expensive in terms of energy consumption. Such an appearance should also be so easy to manufacture that it can be produced in a doubled or even hundredfold arrangement in such a common lens plate by injection molding of transparent plastic such as Plexiglas or polycarbonate, with as uniform wall thickness with only small mass accumulations at the optics and easy demolding must be respected.
Bisher bekannte Optiken erfüllen diese Anforderungen nur ungenügend. Eine einfache Linsengeometrie ist nicht in der Lage, Licht so weit umzulenken wie wünschenswert. Es wird daher ein relativ großer Lichtverlust in Kauf genommen.Previously known optics meet these requirements only insufficient. A simple lens geometry is unable to redirect light as much as desirable. It is therefore a relatively large loss of light accepted.
Die chinesischen Anmeldungen
Andere Hersteller arbeiten mit teilweise sehr komplizierten Einzeloptiken, welche über die LED gesetzt werden und durch Verdrehen und Mischen die Lichtverteilung einer Leuchte verändern können.Other manufacturers work with sometimes very complicated individual optics, which are set via the LED and can change the light distribution of a luminaire by twisting and mixing.
Größere Lichtablenkungen benötigen eine Optik aus mehreren Linsen oder eine Totalreflexion zur Lichtumlenkung. Die bereits erwähnte
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine geeignete Optik zu gestalten, welche den gesamten gegen den Mast oder Hauswände gerichteten und damit bisher verlorenen und störenden Teil des LED-Lichts soweit umlenkt, dass dieses Licht zur Gänze für die gewünschte Lichtverteilung nutzbar wird und auch in vielfacher Anordnung in einer Linsenplatte eine einfache, kostengünstige Herstellung aus transparentem Kunststoff erlaubt. Das wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruches 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.The object of the invention is to design a suitable optics, which deflects the entire directed against the mast or house walls and thus previously lost and disturbing part of the LED light to the extent that this light is fully usable for the desired light distribution and also in multiple arrangement in a lens plate a simple, inexpensive production made of transparent plastic allowed. This is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of

Die LED ist von einem Hohlraum der Optik umgeben, welcher durch einen Linsensteg 4 in eine Hauptkavität 5, welche die LED 2 aufnimmt, und eine Nebenkavität 6 unterteilt wird. Der Linsensteg 4 weist auf der Seite der Hauptkavität 5 eine als konvexe Sammellinse 4a wirkende optische Fläche auf, die Seite der Nebenkavität 6 ist hier eine ebene Fläche 4b, könnte aber auch beliebig gekrümmt sein. Die Hauptkavität 5 ist einerseits durch die Sammellinse 4a, andererseits durch eine unterschiedlich gekrümmte Freiformfläche 5a begrenzt, welche besonders wirksam durch partielles Streuen und Sammeln des Lichts zur Bildung der gewünschten Lichtverteilung beiträgt. Die anschließende Fläche 5b hat keine optischen Aufgaben, sie schließt lediglich die Hauptkavität 5 zur Leiterplatte 1 hin ab. Die Nebenkavität 6 ist einerseits durch die Fläche 4b des Linsensteges, andererseits durch eine zumeist lichtstreuend wirkende konkave Linsenfläche 6a gebildet. Die daran angrenzende Fläche 6b hat keinen optischen Belang, sie schließt lediglich die Nebenkavität 6 zur Leiterplatte 1 hin ab.The LED is surrounded by a cavity of the optics, which is subdivided by a
Die Außenseite der Optik 10 besteht aus einer Linsenkuppe 7 mit veränderlicher Krümmung, welche sich im Wesentlichen über den Hohlraum der Optik erstreckt. Unmittelbar daran anschließend befindet sich eine zumeist krumm erscheinende Lichtlenkungsrippe 8, welche meist etwas in die Linsenkuppe 7 hineinragt, aber auch gänzlich davon abgesetzt sein könnte. Sie erstreckt sich über der Nebenkavität 6 und ragt deutlich über sie hinaus. Die Lichtlenkungsrippe 8 besteht aus einer konvexen Linsenfläche 8a auf der Seite der Linsenkuppe 7 und einer hauptsächlich für Totalreflexion zuständigen Freiform-Reflexionsfläche 8b auf der anderen Seite.The outside of the optic 10 consists of a
Die Optik 10 grenzt allseitig an eine Linsenplatte 9 mit im Allgemeinen konstanter Dicke, in welcher sie integriert ist.The optic 10 adjoins on all sides a
Der Halbleiter 3 der LED 2 strahlt halbkugelförmig Licht 11 aus, welches entweder auf die Freiformfläche 5a oder auf die Sammellinse 4a des Linsensteges 4 fällt. Das auf die Freiformfläche 5a einfallende Licht 11a wird zur Gänze auf die Linsenkuppe 7 gelenkt, von wo es in den Raum abstrahlt. Seine Intensität und Richtung wird durch das Zusammenspiel der Freiformfläche 5a und der Linsenkuppe 7 bestimmt.The
Das auf die Sammellinse 4a des Linsensteges 4 einfallende Licht 11b tritt durch die Fläche 4b aus dem Linsensteg aus, wobei es vor allem vertikal gebündelt und parallel gerichtet wurde, sodass es zur Gänze auf die konkave Linsenfläche 6a trifft. Dort wird es so abgelenkt und gestreut, dass es beim nachfolgenden Auftreffen auf die Reflexionsfläche 8b vollständig total reflektiert wird und bei der Linsenfläche 8a der Lichtlenkungsrippe austritt. So erfährt das Licht 11b großteils eine erhebliche Umlenkung von meist über 90° bis nahezu 180°, wobei die vier Linsenflächen 4a, 4b, 6a und 8a und die Reflexionsfläche 8b zusätzlich noch für ein günstiges Verteilungsergebnis sorgen.The incident on the converging
Wie man sieht, wird jeder Lichtstrahl nutzbringend durch die Optik geleitet und in den gewünschten Verteilungsbereich gelenkt, Richtung Mast oder Hausfassade wird nahezu kein Licht abgestrahlt, was insgesamt auch eine sehr effiziente Lösung ergibt. Es ist offensichtlich, dass die genaue Abstimmung der beiden Lichtpfade und dabei erzielten Lichtverteilungen zueinander, die Möglichkeiten der Lichtlenkung innerhalb dieser Optik und die Gestaltungsvariablen der Freiform-Oberflächen nur mehr auf simulatorischem Weg zu ermitteln sind. Ebenso ist einsichtig, dass eine erfindungsgemäße Optik stark unterschiedliche Lichtverteilungen erzielen kann, wenn manche Geometrien nur ein wenig verändert werden, unter Beibehaltung des Funktionsprinzips.As you can see, each ray of light is usefully guided through the optics and directed into the desired distribution area, towards the mast or house facade, almost no light is emitted, which also results in a very efficient solution. It is obvious, that the precise coordination of the two light paths and thereby achieved light distributions to each other, the possibilities of light control within this optics and the design variables of the free-form surfaces are only to be determined in a simulatory way. Likewise, it is clear that an optical system according to the invention can achieve very different light distributions if some geometries are changed only slightly, while retaining the functional principle.
Weiters ist hier zu erkennen, dass die vorgestellte Optik keine Hinterschneidungen aufweist und sowohl durch die Außenform 12a wie auch die Innenform 12b einwandfrei entformbar ist. Hierdurch bleiben die Werkzeugkosten gering. Ebenso halten sich die Wandstärke-Unterschiede in Grenzen, sodass die Linsenoberflächen auch hinreichend präzise ausgeformt werden können, selbst bei großen Linsenplatten.Furthermore, it can be seen here that the presented optics has no undercuts and is perfectly demoldable both by the
Im Allgemeinen weisen alle Optiken in einer Linsenplatte die gleiche Orientierung auf. Jedoch ergeben sich auch sinnvolle Anwendungen mit unterschiedlicher Orientierung, wenn etwa eine symmetrische Lichtverteilung benötigt wird, erzielbar durch Gegeneinanderstellen der Optiken. Ebenso kann mit einer kreisförmigen Anordnung der Optiken eine rotationssymmetrische Lichtverteilung, etwa zur Beleuchtung von Plätzen erzeugt werden.In general, all optics in a lens plate have the same orientation. However, useful applications with different orientations also result, if for example a symmetrical light distribution is required, achievable by juxtaposing the optics. Likewise, with a circular arrangement of the optics, a rotationally symmetrical light distribution, for example for the illumination of squares, can be generated.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung können auch unterschiedliche Optiken in einer Linsenplatte vorgesehen werden, um etwa eine Lichtverteilung durch Mischung vorhandener Optik-Geometrien zu erzielen.In an embodiment of the invention, different optics can be provided in a lens plate to achieve about a light distribution by mixing existing optical geometries.
Durch Modifizieren der LED-Position in der Optik ändert sich auch die Lichtverteilung. Hierdurch sind Anpassungen etwa an unterschiedliche Straßenbreiten oder Mastverhältnisse möglich, ohne an der optischen Geometrie der Linsenplatte und damit am Spritzgießwerkzeug Änderungen durchführen zu müssen.By modifying the LED position in the optics, the light distribution also changes. As a result, adjustments to different road widths or mast conditions are possible without having to make changes to the optical geometry of the lens plate and thus the injection mold.
Es können auch mehrere LEDs unter einer erfindungsgemäßen Optik angeordnet sein, insbesonders geometrisch minimierte Chip-LEDs, oder LEDs mit mehreren Halbleitern, oder Leiterplatten mit COB (Chip-on-Board)-Ausführung. Hierdurch wird die Lichtleistung entsprechend gesteigert, die Lichtverteilung jedoch unschärfer. In vielen Anwendungen ergibt sich hierdurch eine bessere Wirtschaftlichkeit bei akzeptabler Beleuchtungsqualität.It is also possible to arrange a plurality of LEDs under an optical system according to the invention, in particular geometrically minimized chip LEDs, or LEDs with a plurality of semiconductors, or printed circuit boards with COB (chip-on-board) design. As a result, the light output is increased accordingly, the light distribution, however, blurred. In many applications, this results in a better economy at acceptable illumination quality.
