Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Leuchte mit einer Lichtquelle, einer Primärlinse zum Einfangen des Lichts der Lichtquelle und Abstrahlen eines Lichtkegels mit einer Hauptabstrahlrichtung, sowie einem ringförmigen Reflektor mit einer zentralen Aussparung, der einen äußeren Teil des Lichtkegels quer zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung ablenkt und einen inneren Teil des Lichtkegels durch die Aussparung passieren lässt.The present invention relates to a lamp with a light source, a primary lens for capturing the light from the light source and emitting a light cone with a main emission direction, and an annular reflector with a central recess that deflects an outer part of the light cone transversely to the main emission direction and an inner part of the Light cone can pass through the recess.

Mit einer solchen Leuchte, wie sie beispielsweise die Schrift JP 2003 258 319 A oder EP 2 884 155 A1 zeigen, lässt sich einerseits ein bestimmter Raumbereich hervorheben und andererseits eine gleichmäßig Aufhellung des gesamten Raums erzielen. Das durch die nicht-reflektierende Aussparung der Reflektorfläche hindurchtretende Lichtbündel beleuchtet einen bestimmten Raumbereich, wobei das genannte Lichtbündel beispielsweise nach Art eines Downlights von oben nach unten strahlen und einen Bodenbereich bestrahlen kann. Je nach Aufweitung des Lichtbündels kann dies ein relativ großer Flächenbereich sein, der von dem Lichtbündel gleichmäßig ausgeleuchtet wird, oder auch ein relativ kleiner, enger Bereich, wobei die Leuchte in letztgenanntem Fall einen Lichtakzent setzt und ein Objekt wie beispielsweise eine Vitrine oder einen Tisch oder einen ähnlichen Raumbereich spotartig hervorhebt. Der vom Reflektor eingefangene Lichtkegelteil wird indes quer zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung des Lichtkegels breit in den Raum geworfen und kann insbesondere eine Decke oder eine Wand, an der die Leuchte montiert ist, aufhellen. Gleichzeitig wird durch den Reflektor ein schräg zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung aufgeweiteter Teil des Lichtkegels der Primärlinse abgeblendet, wodurch eine Blendung vermieden werden kann, wenn eine Person schräg in die Leuchte blickt, beispielsweise schräg von unten auf die an der Decke montierte Leuchte.With a lamp like the one in writing JP 2003 258 319 A or EP 2 884 155 A1 show, on the one hand, a certain area of the room can be highlighted and, on the other hand, evenly illuminating the entire room. The light bundle passing through the non-reflective recess of the reflector surface illuminates a certain area of the room, wherein said light bundle can shine from top to bottom, for example in the manner of a downlight, and illuminate a floor area. Depending on the widening of the light bundle, this can be a relatively large area that is uniformly illuminated by the light bundle, or a relatively small, narrow area, the luminaire in the latter case setting a light accent and an object such as a showcase or a table or highlights a similar area of the room like a spot. The part of the light cone captured by the reflector becomes wide in the room at right angles to the main direction of radiation of the light cone thrown and can in particular brighten a ceiling or a wall on which the lamp is mounted. At the same time, a part of the light cone of the primary lens that is widened obliquely to the main radiation direction is blocked out by the reflector, whereby glare can be avoided if a person looks obliquely into the lamp, for example obliquely from below at the lamp mounted on the ceiling.

Beispielsweise können solche Leuchten als kombinierte Downlights und Deckenaufheller an einer Decke montiert werden, insbesondere als Aufputzleuchte, die auf der Unterseite der Decke montierbar ist, oder ggf. auch als von der Decke beabstandete Pendelleuchte. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann die Leuchte aber auch an einer aufrechten Wand montiert werden, beispielsweise um ein an einer gegenüberliegenden Wand gehängtes Bild zu akzentuieren und gleichzeitig die Wand, an der die Leuchte montiert ist, aufzuhellen.For example, such lights can be mounted on a ceiling as combined downlights and ceiling brighteners, in particular as a surface-mounted light that can be mounted on the underside of the ceiling, or possibly also as a pendant light spaced from the ceiling. Alternatively or additionally, the lamp can also be mounted on an upright wall, for example to accentuate a picture hung on an opposite wall and at the same time to brighten the wall on which the lamp is mounted.

Ein Problem bei solchen Leuchten ist es, dass in einem Raum oft ein Raster bzw. eine Reihe solcher Leuchten verbaut werden, die ein einheitliches, möglichst identisches Erscheinungsbild haben sollen, gleichzeitig aber oft verschiedene Beleuchtungsaufgaben mit verschiedenen Lichtverteilungscharakteristiken erfüllen müssen. Werden solche Leuchten beispielsweise in einem festen, gleichmäßigen Raster an der Decke befestigt, während unterschiedlich große und/oder ungleichmäßig verteilte Vitrinen am Boden beleuchtet werden sollen, müssen die Leuchten, insbesondere der durch die Aussparung im Reflektor abgestrahlte Lichtkegelteil unterschiedliche Flächenbereiche beleuchten.One problem with such luminaires is that a grid or a series of such luminaires are often installed in a room, which should have a uniform, as identical as possible appearance, but at the same time often have to fulfill different lighting tasks with different light distribution characteristics. For example, if such lights are attached to the ceiling in a fixed, even grid, while showcases of different sizes and / or unevenly distributed showcases on the floor are to be illuminated, the lights, especially the part of the cone of light emitted through the recess in the reflector, have to illuminate different areas.

Gleichzeitig neigen die genannten Leuchten mit Primärlinse und Reflektor zum Verschmutzen und damit zu nachlassender Effizienz und Brillanz. Über die Aussparung im Reflektor oder auch seitlich über den Abstrahlbereich des Reflektors eintretender Staub und Schmutz kann sich sowohl auf der Reflektorfläche als auch an der Linse absetzen. US 2013.100.677 offenbart eine Leuchte.At the same time, the above-mentioned lights with primary lens and reflector tend to get dirty and thus decrease in efficiency and brilliance. Dust and dirt entering via the recess in the reflector or laterally via the emission area of the reflector can settle both on the reflector surface and on the lens. US 2013.100.677 discloses a lamp.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine verbesserte Leuchte der genannten Art zu schaffen, die Nachteile des Standes der Technik vermeidet und Letzteren in vorteilhafter Weise weiterbildet. Insbesondere soll die Leuchte hinsichtlich der Variabilität ihrer Abstrahlcharakteristik verbessert und eine dauerhaft effiziente, brillante lichttechnische Abstrahlung erzielt werden.The present invention is therefore based on the object of creating an improved luminaire of the type mentioned, which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art and further develops the latter in an advantageous manner. In particular, the luminaire should be improved with regard to the variability of its radiation characteristics and a permanently efficient, brilliant light-technical radiation should be achieved.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die genannte Aufgabe durch eine Leuchte gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.According to the invention, the stated object is achieved by a luminaire according to claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims.

Es wird also vorgeschlagen, den durch die Aussparung im Reflektor hindurchtretenden Lichtkegelteil nochmals zu formen und hierfür eine Sekundärlinse vorzusehen, die in der Aussparung des Reflektors angeordnet ist und ausgewechselt werden kann, um das durch die Aussparung des Reflektors austretende Lichtbündel verschieden umformen und an die jeweilige Akzentuierungsaufgabe anpassen zu können. Erfindungsgemäß ist eine Sekundärlinse in die genannte Aussparung des Reflektors eingesetzt und zum Aufweiten, Einengen und/oder Umformen des unreflektierten, inneren Teils des Lichtkegels der Primärlinse ausgebildet. Der genannte Reflektor ist dabei von der Primärlinse beabstandet angeordnet und durch ein hülsenförmiges, transparentes Gehäuseteil gehalten, das den Reflektor und die Primärlinse umschließt, so dass das vom Reflektor quer zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung abgelenkte Licht durch den genannten transparenten Gehäuseteil hindurchtritt. Die Primärlinse formt dabei das gesamte Licht der Lichtquelle zu einem spitzwinkligen Abstrahlkegel, der sich insbesondere in Hauptabstrahlrichtung spitzwinklig aufweiten kann, so dass ein aufgeweiteter Rand des Abstrahlkegels auf den axial beabstandeten Reflektor fällt und von diesem quer abgelenkt wird, während der zentrale Teil des aufgeweiteten Abstrahlkegels durch die Sekundärlinse tritt.It is therefore proposed to shape the light cone part passing through the recess in the reflector again and to provide a secondary lens for this purpose, which is arranged in the recess of the reflector and can be exchanged in order to differently reshape the light bundle emerging through the recess of the reflector and adapt it to the respective To be able to adapt the accentuation task. According to the invention, a secondary lens is inserted into the said recess of the reflector and designed to expand, narrow and / or reshape the unreflected, inner part of the light cone of the primary lens. Said reflector is arranged at a distance from the primary lens and held by a sleeve-shaped, transparent housing part which encloses the reflector and the primary lens, so that the light deflected by the reflector transversely to the main emission direction passes through the said transparent housing part. The primary lens forms all of the light from the light source into an acute-angled radiation cone, which can widen at an acute angle, especially in the main radiation direction, so that a widened edge of the radiation cone falls on the axially spaced reflector and is deflected transversely by it, while the central part of the widened radiation cone passes through the secondary lens.

Zur Klarstellung sei angemerkt, dass mit der vorgenannten Primärlinse nicht das bisweilen unmittelbar an der Lichtquelle selbst vorgesehene, linsenartig wirkende Lichtquellenbauteil gemeint ist, das beispielsweise bei LEDs glockenartig auf dem Halbleiterelement sitzt, sondern ein der Lichtquelle nachgeordnetes separates Bauteil ist, das zwar mit der Lichtquelle verbunden, beispielsweise auf deren Leiterplatte sitzen kann, jedoch sozusagen nachträglich der bereits fertigen Lichtquelle nachgeordnet wird. Insbesondere kann die Leuchte mit einer solchen (zusätzlichen) Primärlinse an sich bereits eigenständig, d.h. auch ohne den genannten Reflektor als Leuchte wirken und einen Abstrahlkegel bzw. eine auch asymmetrische Abstrahlkeule mit einer gewünschten Lichtverteilungscharakteristik erzielen, wenn der genannte Reflektor zusammen mit der Sekundärlinse abgebaut ist.For clarification, it should be noted that the aforementioned primary lens does not mean the light source component that is sometimes provided directly on the light source itself and has a lens-like effect, which, for example, in LEDs, is bell-shaped on the Semiconductor element sits, but is a separate component downstream of the light source, which is connected to the light source, for example, can sit on its circuit board, but is, so to speak, subsequently arranged downstream of the already finished light source. In particular, the luminaire with such an (additional) primary lens can act as a luminaire even without the specified reflector and achieve a radiation cone or an asymmetrical radiation lobe with a desired light distribution characteristic when the specified reflector is dismantled together with the secondary lens .

In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann ein Satz von mehreren Sekundärlinsen vorgesehen sein, die zumindest eine Sammellinse und zumindest eine Streulinse umfassen und einander entsprechende Außenanschlussmaße und/oder -konturierungen besitzen, um gegeneinander auswechselbar in die Aussparung eingesetzt werden zu können, wobei je nach gewünschter Abstrahlcharakteristik des den Reflektor durch die Aussparung passierenden Lichtkegelteils eine andere der genannten Wechsellinsen eingesetzt werden kann. Mit einem solchen Satz von auswechselbaren Sekundärlinsen bildet die Leuchte ein in der Abstrahlcharakteristik einfach und variabel anpassbares Leuchtenmodul mit einem modularen Aufbau, das ungeachtet verschiedener Abstrahlcharakteristiken trotzdem ein einheitliches äußeres Erscheinungsbild besitzt.In an advantageous development of the invention, a set of several secondary lenses can be provided, which include at least one converging lens and at least one diverging lens and have mutually corresponding external connection dimensions and / or contours so that they can be interchangeably inserted into the recess, depending on the desired emission characteristic of the light cone part passing through the recess through the reflector, another of the interchangeable lenses mentioned can be used. With such a set of interchangeable secondary lenses, the luminaire forms a luminaire module that can be easily and variably adapted in terms of its radiation characteristics and has a modular structure that nevertheless has a uniform external appearance regardless of the various radiation characteristics.

Durch die Verwendung verschiedener Sekundärlinsen wie Sammellinsen oder Streulinsen lässt sich die Aufweitung des von der Sekundärlinse abgestrahlten Lichtbündels an die jeweilige Beleuchtungsaufgabe und insbesondere verschiedene Deckenhöhen anpassen. Um beispielsweise einen bestimmten Bodenbereich bei gegebener, niedriger Deckenhöhe zu bestrahlen, kann eine Streulinse Verwendung finden, während zum Bestrahlen desselben Bodenbereichs bei gegebener größerer Deckenhöhe eine Sekundärlinse mit geringerer Aufweitung eingesetzt werden kann. Unabhängig von der Deckenhöhe können mit verschiedenen Sekundärlinsen und verschiedenen Aufweitwinkeln aber auch verschiedene Raumbereiche ausgeleuchtet werden, beispielsweise ein größerer Bodenbereich gleichmäßig bestrahlt oder ein kleineres Objekt wie eine Vitrine stärker akzentuiert werden.By using different secondary lenses such as converging lenses or scattering lenses, the expansion of the light beam emitted by the secondary lens can be adapted to the respective lighting task and in particular to different ceiling heights. For example, in order to irradiate a certain floor area with a given, low ceiling height, a diffusing lens can be used, while a secondary lens with less expansion can be used to irradiate the same floor area with a given higher ceiling height. Regardless of the ceiling height, you can also use different secondary lenses and different expansion angles different areas of the room are illuminated, for example a larger floor area is uniformly irradiated or a smaller object such as a showcase is more strongly accentuated.

Die genannte Sekundärlinse muss allerdings nicht zwangsweise aufweitend oder einengend wirken. Beispielsweise kann es auch sinnvoll sein, wenn der Satz von Sekundärlinsen eine Umlenklinse umfasst, mittels derer die Hauptabstrahlrichtung verändert werden kann, so dass das Lichtbündel beim Hindurchtreten durch die Reflektoraussparung und die dort vorgesehene Sekundärlinse sozusagen leicht abknickt und/oder eine Querschnittsumformung erfährt, beispielsweise von einem kreisförmigen Querschnitt zu einem elliptischen oder polygonartigen Querschnitt. Allgemein kann die Sekundärlinse dazu ausgebildet sein, eine asymmetrische Lichtverteilung zu erzeugen, um beispielsweise in einem insgesamt ausgeleuchteten Raumbereich einen Unterbereich stärker und einen anderen Unterbereich schwächer auszuleuchten. Durch eine solche Umformlinse können auch nicht direkt in der Hauptabstrahlrichtung der Primärlinse positionierte Raumbereiche beleuchtet werden, oder beispielsweise rechteckige Teppiche näherungsweise vollständig ausgeleuchtet werden.However, the named secondary lens does not necessarily have to have a widening or constricting effect. For example, it can also be useful if the set of secondary lenses includes a deflecting lens, by means of which the main emission direction can be changed so that the light beam, when passing through the reflector recess and the secondary lens provided there, bends slightly and / or undergoes a cross-sectional reshaping, for example from a circular cross-section to an elliptical or polygonal cross-section. In general, the secondary lens can be designed to generate an asymmetrical light distribution in order, for example, to illuminate one sub-area more intensely and another sub-area less intensely in an overall illuminated spatial area. Such a shaping lens can also illuminate spatial areas that are not positioned directly in the main radiation direction of the primary lens, or, for example, rectangular carpets can be almost completely illuminated.

Weiterhin ist es möglich, anstelle einer solchen Linse eine Abschattung oder Abdeckung in die Reflektoraussparung einzusetzen, um das dort austretende Lichtbündel gänzlich abzuschatten oder stark zu verkleinern. Eine solche gänzliche Abschattung der Hauptabstrahlrichtung kann beispielsweise sinnvoll sein, wenn die Leuchte an einer aufrechten Wand montiert werden soll und/oder in einer Einbausituation, in der im Wesentlichen nur die Aufhellung der die Leuchte umgebenden Wand- und/oder Deckenfläche gewünscht ist. Eine solche Abdeckung, die von ihren Anschlussmaßen und/oder -konturierungen her den vorgenannten Sekundärlinsen entsprechen und in analoger Weise in die Reflektoraussparung eingesetzt werden kann, kann auf ihrer der Primärlinse zugewandten Seite vorteilhafterweise reflektierend und/oder streuend abstrahlend, beispielsweise an der Oberfläche weiß ausgebildet sein, um die Effizienz der Leuchte hochzuhalten und das nicht mehr durch die Reflektoraussparung austretende Licht seitlich am Reflektor vorbei abzustrahlen. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann eine solche Abdeckkappe an ihrer der Primärlinse zugewandten Seite aber auch zumindest abschnittsweise mit einer Facettierung, beispielsweise Reflektorfacetten versehen sein, um das Licht quer zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung seitlich umzulenken.Furthermore, instead of such a lens, it is possible to insert a shadowing or cover into the reflector recess in order to completely shadow or greatly reduce the light beam emerging there. Such complete shading of the main radiation direction can be useful, for example, if the luminaire is to be mounted on an upright wall and / or in an installation situation in which essentially only the lighting of the wall and / or ceiling area surrounding the luminaire is desired. Such a cover, which in terms of its connection dimensions and / or contours corresponds to the aforementioned secondary lenses and can be inserted into the reflector recess in an analogous manner, can advantageously be designed to be reflective and / or scattering, for example white on the surface, on its side facing the primary lens to keep the efficiency of the luminaire high and no longer through the reflector recess emit emerging light sideways past the reflector. As an alternative or in addition, such a cover cap can also be provided at least in sections with a faceting, for example reflector facets, on its side facing the primary lens, in order to deflect the light laterally transversely to the main emission direction.

Um ein einfaches Auswechseln der verschiedenen Sekundärlinsen bzw. der Abdeckkappe zu ermöglichen, sind die genannten, verschiedenen Sekundärlinsen und/oder die Abdeckkappe vorteilhafterweise von einer Vorderseite her im Austausch gegeneinander in die Aussparung des Reflektors einsetzbar. Die Vorderseite meint dabei diejenige Seite der Leuchte, zu der hin der durch die Sekundärlinse bzw. die Aussparung im Reflektor hindurchtretende Lichtanteil abgestrahlt wird. Insbesondere können die Sekundärlinsen unterschiedlicher Abstrahlcharakteristik und/oder die genannte Abdeckkappe sowie die Aussparung des Reflektors randseitig derart konturiert sein, dass die Sekundärlinsen und/oder die Abdeckkappe in Richtung der Hauptabstrahlrichtung von vorne her in die Aussparung des Reflektors einsetzbar sind. Beispielsweise kann sich die Aussparung zur Vorderseite hin kegelig aufweiten oder treppenförmig aufweiten, während sich die Sekundärlinsen und/oder die Abdeckkappe zur Primärlinse hin verjüngen können, beispielsweise konisch oder treppenförmig, um passgenau in die Aussparung zu passen.In order to enable the various secondary lenses or the cover cap to be easily exchanged, the above-mentioned various secondary lenses and / or the cover cap can advantageously be inserted into the recess of the reflector from a front side in exchange for one another. The front side means that side of the lamp towards which the light component passing through the secondary lens or the recess in the reflector is emitted. In particular, the secondary lenses with different emission characteristics and / or the aforementioned cover cap and the recess of the reflector can be contoured at the edge in such a way that the secondary lenses and / or the cover cap can be inserted into the recess of the reflector in the direction of the main emission direction from the front. For example, the recess can widen conically towards the front or widen in a step shape, while the secondary lenses and / or the cover cap can taper towards the primary lens, for example conically or step-shaped, in order to fit precisely into the recess.

In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann die jeweilige Sekundärlinse - oder ggf. die genannte Abdeckung - direkt am Reflektor lösbar befestigt sein und die Aussparung des Reflektors im Wesentlichen vollständig verschließen, wobei am Rand der Sekundärlinse und am Rand der Aussparung zueinander kompatible, lösbare Verbindungsmittel vorgesehen sein können. Solche lösbaren Verbindungsmittel können vorteilhafterweise eine formschlüssige Schnappverbindung umfassen, mittels derer die Sekundärlinse in der Reflektoraussparung verschnappbar ist. Alternativ oder zusätzlich können aber auch andere formschlüssige Verbindungsmittel vorgesehen sein, beispielsweise ein den Rand der Aussparung überdeckender bzw. umgreifender Kragen an der Sekundärlinse, mit dem die Sekundärlinse am Aussparungsrand des Reflektors aufliegen kann. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann auch die Aussparung im Reflektor einen solchen Kragen umfassen, so dass die Linse in die Aussparung einsetzbar und gegen den Kragen anstehen kann.In an advantageous development of the invention, the respective secondary lens - or possibly the mentioned cover - can be detachably attached directly to the reflector and essentially completely close the recess of the reflector, with releasable connecting means that are compatible with one another being provided on the edge of the secondary lens and on the edge of the recess can. Such releasable connecting means can advantageously comprise a form-fitting snap connection, by means of which the secondary lens can be snapped into the reflector recess. As an alternative or in addition, however, other form-fitting connecting means can also be provided, for example a collar on the edge of the recess that covers or encompasses Secondary lens with which the secondary lens can rest on the recess edge of the reflector. As an alternative or in addition, the recess in the reflector can also comprise such a collar, so that the lens can be inserted into the recess and can rest against the collar.

Die genannte Sekundärlinse muss aber nicht lösbar oder auswechselbar am Reflektor befestigt sein, sondern kann auch unlösbar daran angebracht sein, beispielsweise durch Ankleben, wobei in diesem Fall die Auswahl der gewünschten Sekundärlinse herstellerseitig im Herstellprozess erfolgt. Ferner sei angemerkt, dass die Linse auch integral einstückig an den Reflektor angeformt sein kann, beispielsweise durch Spritzgießen von Reflektor und Sekundärlinse in einem Stück aus Kunststoff. Insofern ist die im Kontext erläuterte Aussparung des Reflektors als nicht reflektierende Aussparung in der Reflexionsfläche zu verstehen, die kein Licht reflektiert, sondern hindurchlässt, gleichwohl aber kein materiefreies Durchgangsloch sein muss.The mentioned secondary lens does not have to be detachably or interchangeably attached to the reflector, but can also be permanently attached to it, for example by gluing, in which case the desired secondary lens is selected by the manufacturer in the manufacturing process. It should also be noted that the lens can also be formed integrally in one piece with the reflector, for example by injection molding the reflector and secondary lens in one piece from plastic. In this respect, the recess of the reflector explained in the context is to be understood as a non-reflecting recess in the reflection surface, which does not reflect light but lets it through, but does not have to be a material-free through hole.

In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann die Leuchte ein Leuchtengehäuse aufweisen, das die Primärlinse sowie die Reflektorfläche des Reflektors umgibt und vor Verstaubung bzw. Verschmutzung schützt. Insbesondere kann ein hülsenförmiges, transparentes Gehäuseteil vorgesehen sein, das den Reflektor mit einen Leuchtengrundträger, an dem die Lichtquelle und/oder die Primärlinse befestigt sind, verbindet, so dass das genannte Gehäuseteil zusammen mit dem Reflektor und der Sekundärlinse ein Leuchtengehäuse bildet, das die Primärlinse umschließt. Das genannte transparente Gehäuseteil kann beispielsweise aus transparentem Kunststoff spritzgegossen sein und/oder ein Glas umfassen.In an advantageous development of the invention, the luminaire can have a luminaire housing which surrounds the primary lens and the reflector surface of the reflector and protects against dust or contamination. In particular, a sleeve-shaped, transparent housing part can be provided, which connects the reflector with a lamp base support to which the light source and / or the primary lens are attached, so that the said housing part together with the reflector and the secondary lens forms a lamp housing that the primary lens encloses. Said transparent housing part can, for example, be injection molded from transparent plastic and / or comprise a glass.

Vorteilhafterweise ist das genannte transparente Gehäuseteil geschlossen ausgebildet und/oder staubdicht an den Reflektor und das Leuchtengrundträgerteil angeschlossen, um einen abgeschlossenen Leuchteninnenraum zu bilden, in den die Primärlinse, die Rückseite der Sekundärlinse und die Reflektorfläche des Reflektors geschützt aufgenommen sind.Advantageously, said transparent housing part is designed to be closed and / or connected to the reflector and the luminaire base support part in a dust-tight manner in order to form a closed luminaire interior in which the primary lens, the rear of the secondary lens and the reflector surface of the reflector are accommodated in a protected manner.

Vorteilhafterweise kann das genannte hülsenförmige, transparente Gehäuseteil einen Außenrand des Reflektors halten und/oder daran angeschlossen sein, um den Reflektor zu halten, und den genannten Außenrand des Reflektors mit dem Leuchtengrundträger, insbesondere einem Außenrand hiervon, zu verbinden.Advantageously, said sleeve-shaped, transparent housing part can hold an outer edge of the reflector and / or be connected to it in order to hold the reflector, and to connect said outer edge of the reflector to the lamp base support, in particular an outer edge thereof.

Das Gehäuseteil kann lösbar mit dem Reflektor und/oder dem Grundträgerteil verbunden sein, um die Leuchte ohne Reflektor und ohne Sekundärlinse nur mit der Primärlinse betreiben zu können.The housing part can be detachably connected to the reflector and / or the base support part in order to be able to operate the lamp without a reflector and without a secondary lens only with the primary lens.

Das genannte hülsenförmige transparente Gehäuseteil kann vorteilhafterweise eine im Querschnitt betrachtet gerade Umfangswandung bilden, insbesondere zumindest näherungsweise zylindrisch oder kegelförmig ausgebildet sein. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann das Gehäuseteil auch zumindest abschnittsweise bauchig oder gekrümmt konturiert sein, d.h. die im Querschnitt betrachtete Umfangswandung kann konkav oder konvex oder auch abwechselnd konkav und konvex gekrümmt konturiert sein. Unabhängig hiervon kann das genannte Gehäuseteil facettenfrei und/oder mit einer glatten Oberfläche versehen sein, um das reflektierte, durch das Gehäuseteil hindurchtretende Licht nicht weiter umzulenken.Said sleeve-shaped transparent housing part can advantageously form a circumferential wall which is straight when viewed in cross section, in particular it can be at least approximately cylindrical or conical. As an alternative or in addition, the housing part can also be contoured at least in sections in a bulbous or curved manner, i.e. the circumferential wall viewed in cross section can be concave or convex or also alternately concave and convex curved. Regardless of this, said housing part can be facet-free and / or provided with a smooth surface in order not to further deflect the reflected light passing through the housing part.

Die zuvor genannte Sekundärlinse, die in die Reflektoraussparung einsetzbar ist, kann in Weiterbildung der Erfindung zumindest näherungsweise plattenförmig ausgebildet sein, wobei je nach Ausbildung als Sammel- oder Streulinse eine konkave oder konvexe Oberflächenwölbung vorgesehen sein kann. Durch eine solche näherungsweise plattenförmige Ausbildung der Sekundärlinse kann eine insgesamt kompakte, flache Bauweise der Leuchte erzielt werden, die auch bei Montage als Anbau- bzw. Aufputzleuchte ein ansprechendes Erscheinungsbild sicherstellt.The aforementioned secondary lens, which can be inserted into the reflector recess, can be at least approximately plate-shaped in a further development of the invention, with a concave or convex surface curvature being provided as a collecting or scattering lens. Such an approximately plate-shaped design of the secondary lens makes it possible to achieve an overall compact, flat design of the light that ensures an attractive appearance even when mounted as a surface-mounted or surface-mounted light.

Die Sekundärlinse kann vorteilhafterweise mit einer Facettierung versehen sein, wobei eine solche Facettierung mehr als 25 oder mehr als 50 oder auch mehr als 100 Facetten umfassen kann, die in einem regelmäßigen Anordnungsmuster positioniert sein bzw. über die Linsenfläche verteilt sein können. Mit einer solchen Facettierung der Sekundärlinse kann eine besonders homogene Abstrahlung des Lichtbündels erzielt und ggf. auch eine Farbdurchmischung erreicht werden, insbesondere dann, wenn als Lichtquelle mehrere, verschiedenfarbige Punktlichtquellen wie beispielsweise LEDs Verwendung finden.The secondary lens can advantageously be provided with a faceting, wherein such a faceting can comprise more than 25 or more than 50 or even more than 100 facets arranged in a regular arrangement pattern be positioned or can be distributed over the lens surface. With such a faceting of the secondary lens, a particularly homogeneous emission of the light bundle can be achieved and, if necessary, a color mixing can also be achieved, in particular when several differently colored point light sources such as LEDs are used as the light source.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann auch der genannte Reflektor mit einer Facettierung versehen sein, die ebenfalls mehr als 25 oder mehr als 50 oder auch mehr als 100 Facetten umfassen kann, die in einem regelmäßigen Muster über die Reflektorfläche verteilt sein können. Durch eine solche Facettierung des Reflektors kann auch die Querabstrahlung homogenisiert und die Decken- bzw. Wandfläche gleichmäßig ausgeleuchtet werden.As an alternative or in addition, the said reflector can also be provided with a faceting, which can likewise comprise more than 25 or more than 50 or even more than 100 facets, which can be distributed in a regular pattern over the reflector surface. Such a faceting of the reflector can also homogenize the transverse radiation and illuminate the ceiling or wall surface evenly.

Der Reflektor kann vorteilhafterweise dazu konfiguriert sein, das eingefangene Licht des Lichtkegels der Primärlinse quer zu deren Hauptabstrahlrichtung in einen ringförmigen Keilbereich von 85° bis 120° oder 90° bis 115° oder insbesondere auch 95° bis 110° zur genannten Hauptabstrahlrichtung des Lichtkegels der Primärlinse abzustrahlen. Der Reflektor kann das eingefangene Licht also vorteilhafterweise zumindest teilweise entgegen der Hauptabstrahlrichtung zurückwerfen, um eine hinter bzw. über der Leuchte liegende Ebene schleifend, d.h. spitzwinklig aufzuhellen. Die genannte Querabstrahlung in einem Ringkeil mit einem relativ schmalen Aufweitungswinkel von 85° bis 120° bzw. 95° bis 110° oder ggf. auch enger von 95° bis 105° kann eine breite, gleichmäßige Aufhellung des Raums erzielen.The reflector can advantageously be configured to direct the captured light of the light cone of the primary lens transversely to its main radiation direction in an annular wedge area of 85 ° to 120 ° or 90 ° to 115 ° or in particular 95 ° to 110 ° to the aforementioned main radiation direction of the light cone of the primary lens to radiate. The reflector can therefore advantageously reflect the captured light at least partially against the main direction of emission, dragging around a plane lying behind or above the luminaire, i.e. lighten at an acute angle. The mentioned transverse radiation in an annular wedge with a relatively narrow widening angle of 85 ° to 120 ° or 95 ° to 110 ° or possibly also narrower from 95 ° to 105 ° can achieve a wide, uniform brightening of the room.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann durch die Sekundärlinse und den Reflektor ein Raumbereich abgeblendet werden, der ringförmig konturiert sein und zwischen dem Lichtbündel, das von der Sekundärlinse abgestrahlt wird, und dem Lichtbündel, das von dem Reflektor abstrahlt wird, liegen kann. Dieser abgeblendete Bereich kann beispielsweise einen Winkelbereich von 60° bis 85° zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung oder 50° bis 90° oder 40° bis 90° oder auch 30° bis 90° betragen.As an alternative or in addition, the secondary lens and the reflector can shield a spatial area which is annularly contoured and can lie between the light beam that is emitted by the secondary lens and the light beam that is emitted by the reflector. This shielded area can be, for example, an angular range of 60 ° to 85 ° to the main emission direction or 50 ° to 90 ° or 40 ° to 90 ° or also 30 ° to 90 °.

Wie Fig. 1 zeigt, umfasst die Leuchte 1 eine Lichtquelle 2, die in einen Halbraum strahlt, beispielsweise in Form einer näherungsweise punktförmigen LED oder auch einer COB-Einheit, d.h. Chip on Board-Leuchtmittel, wobei ggf. auch ein mehrfarbiges LED-Raster vorgesehen sein kann.As Fig. 1 shows, the luminaire 1 comprises a light source 2 that radiates into a half-space, for example in the form of an approximately punctiform LED or a COB unit, ie chip on board light sources, with a multicolored LED grid optionally also being provided.

Die genannte Lichtquelle 2 ist an einem Leuchtengrundträger 10 befestigt, mittels dessen die Leuchte 1 an einer Decke oder auch an einer Wand montiert werden kann. Der genannte Leuchtengrundträger 10 kann ein plattenförmiges Bauteil bilden, das eine etwa ebene Montagefläche 10 zur Aufputzmontage besitzen kann. Es versteht sich jedoch, dass auch andere Montagevarianten, beispielsweise eine Schienenmontage oder eine abgehängte Montage möglich sind.Said light source 2 is attached to a lamp base support 10, by means of which the lamp 1 can be mounted on a ceiling or on a wall. Said lamp base support 10 can form a plate-shaped component which can have an approximately flat mounting surface 10 for surface mounting. It goes without saying, however, that other mounting variants, for example rail mounting or suspended mounting, are also possible.

In Abstrahlrichtung vor die Lichtquelle 1 ist eine Primärlinse 3 geschaltet, die an dem genannten Leuchtengrundträger 10 befestigt sein kann, wobei der genannte Leuchtengrundträger 10 beispielsweise eine napfförmige Ausnehmung vorzugsweise mit weißen Wandungen umfassen kann, die die Lichtquelle 2 umgibt und auf deren Rändern die genannte Primärlinse 3 sitzt.In the direction of emission in front of the light source 1, a primary lens 3 is connected, which can be attached to the said lamp base support 10, wherein the said lamp base support 10 can comprise, for example, a cup-shaped recess, preferably with white walls, which surrounds the light source 2 and on the edges of which said primary lens 3 sits.

Wie Fig. 1 zeigt, kann die genannte Primärlinse 3 eine zur Lichtquelle 2 zugewandte, im Wesentlichen ebene Lichteintrittsfläche aufweisen und andererseits eine domförmig gewölbte Lichtaustrittsfläche 11 besitzen, wobei die Primärlinse 3 insgesamt betrachtet rotationssymmetrisch ausgebildet sein kann und - grob gesprochen - eine spiegeleiförmige Konturierung besitzen kann.As Fig. 1 shows, said primary lens 3 can have an essentially flat light entry surface facing the light source 2 and on the other hand have a dome-shaped, arched light exit surface 11, whereby the primary lens 3 viewed overall can be rotationally symmetrical and - roughly speaking - can have a mirror-like contouring.

Durch die vorgenannte napfförmige Ausnehmung im Leuchtengrundträger 10 und die direkt darauf sitzende Primärlinse 3 wird das von der Lichtquelle 2 abgegebene Licht im Wesentlichen vollständig in die Primärlinse 3 eingeleitet und von der genannten Primärlinse 3 in Form eines Lichtbündels oder Lichtkegels 4 abgestrahlt, der eine Hauptabstrahlrichtung 5 aufweist, die im Wesentlichen die Symmetrieachse der Primärlinse 3 bilden und/oder mit einer Symmetrieachse der Lichtquelle 2 zusammenfallen kann. Im Querschnitt kann das Lichtbündel kreisförmig oder auch oval, elliptisch oder polygonal konturiert sein. Der genannte Lichtkegel 4 zeigt vorteilhafterweise eine Aufweitung im Bereich von 2 x 20° bis 2 x 70° oder 2 x 30° bis 2 x 60°, kann grundsätzlich aber auch andere Aufweitungen besitzen.Through the aforementioned cup-shaped recess in the luminaire base support 10 and the primary lens 3 seated directly on it, the light emitted by the light source 2 is essentially completely introduced into the primary lens 3 and emitted by the aforementioned primary lens 3 in the form of a light bundle or light cone 4, which has a main radiation direction 5 which essentially form the axis of symmetry of the primary lens 3 and / or can coincide with an axis of symmetry of the light source 2. In cross section, the light bundle can be circular or oval, elliptical or polygonal. Said light cone 4 advantageously shows a widening in the range from 2 × 20 ° to 2 × 70 ° or 2 × 30 ° to 2 × 60 °, but can in principle also have other widenings.

Die Leuchte 1 könnte an sich wie in Fig. 1 gezeigt eingesetzt werden, insbesondere als Downlight, wobei dann der Lichtkegel 4 die ganze Abstrahlung der Leuchte 1 bilden würde.The lamp 1 could in itself as in Fig. 1 are used, in particular as a downlight, in which case the light cone 4 would form the entire radiation of the lamp 1.

Wie Fig. 2 zeigt, ist jedoch an den Leuchtengrundträger 10 ein Reflektor 6 anschließbar, der im Lichtkegel 4 der Primärlinse 3 positioniert ist und dessen randseitig äußeren Bereich einfängt, wobei der Reflektor 6 axial und/oder radial beabstandet vor der Primärlinse 3 sitzt.As Fig. 2 shows, however, a reflector 6 can be connected to the luminaire base support 10, which is positioned in the light cone 4 of the primary lens 3 and captures its outer area at the edge, the reflector 6 being axially and / or radially spaced in front of the primary lens 3.

Der genannte Reflektor 6 umfasst eine zentrale Aussparung 7 beispielsweise in Form eines kreisförmigen Durchgangslochs, ggf. aber auch in Form eines rechteckigen oder polygonzugartigen Durchtrittslochs. Die lichte Weite der genannten Aussparung 7 kann größenordnungsmäßig in etwa - je nach Ausbildung der Aufweitung des Lichtkegels 4 - 50% bis 125% oder 60% bis 100% des Durchmessers der Primärlinse 3 betragen, so dass der Reflektor 6 nur den äußeren Ringteil des Lichtkegels 4 einfängt.Said reflector 6 comprises a central recess 7, for example in the form of a circular through hole, but possibly also in the form of a rectangular or polygonal through hole. The clear width of the recess 7 mentioned can be of the order of magnitude - depending on the design of the expansion of the light cone 4 - 50% to 125% or 60% to 100% of the Diameter of the primary lens 3, so that the reflector 6 captures only the outer ring part of the light cone 4.

Dieser vom Reflektor 6 eingefangene Teil des Lichtkegels 4 wird von dem Reflektor 6 quer zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung 5 nach außen umgelenkt, wobei der genannte Reflektor 6 dazu ausgebildet sein kann, einen keilförmigen, ringförmigen Bereich 12 von ca. 85° bis 120° oder 95° bis 110° zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung 5 zu bestrahlen. Der Abstrahlbereich des Reflektors 6 beleuchtet also spitzwinklig schleifend die Decke bzw. Wand, an der die Leuchte 1 montiert ist und leuchtet diese breit aus.This part of the light cone 4 captured by the reflector 6 is deflected outward by the reflector 6 transversely to the main emission direction 5, wherein the said reflector 6 can be designed to have a wedge-shaped, annular area 12 of approx. 85 ° to 120 ° or 95 ° to 110 ° to the main radiation direction 5 to irradiate. The radiation area of the reflector 6 thus illuminates the ceiling or wall on which the lamp 1 is mounted and illuminates it broadly.

Wie Fig. 2 zeigt, kann der genannte Reflektor 6 eine Ringkontur besitzen, die sich im Querschnitt betrachtet spitzwinklig zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung 5 der Primärlinse 3 erstreckt und vom inneren, die Aussparung 7 umgebenden Rand nach außen hin schräg abfallen kann, wenn die Leuchte 1 in der in Fig. 2 gezeigten Stellung ist.As Fig. 2 shows, the said reflector 6 can have a ring contour which, viewed in cross section, extends at an acute angle to the main radiation direction 5 of the primary lens 3 and can slope outwardly from the inner edge surrounding the recess 7 when the luminaire 1 in the in Fig. 2 position shown is.

Der genannte Reflektor 6 kann an dem Leuchtengrundträger 10 über ein transparentes, im Wesentlichen hülsenförmiges Gehäuseteil 9 befestigt sein, das beispielsweise aus transparentem Kunststoff spritzgegossen oder auch aus Glas gefertigt sein kann. Das genannte Gehäuseteil 9 kann insbesondere eine zylindrische oder leicht kegelige Hülse mit im Querschnitt betrachtet geradem Wandungsverlauf bilden und einerseits an einem Rand des Leuchtengrundträgers 10 und andererseits an einem äußeren Rand des Reflektors 6 befestigt sein, beispielsweise durch eine formschlüssige Verbindung wie beispielsweise eine Rastverbindung oder eine Schraubverbindung, oder kraft- und/oder stoffschlüssig durch Verkleben oder auch in anderer Weise.Said reflector 6 can be attached to the luminaire base support 10 via a transparent, essentially sleeve-shaped housing part 9, which can be injection-molded from transparent plastic or made from glass, for example. Said housing part 9 can in particular form a cylindrical or slightly conical sleeve with a straight wall profile when viewed in cross section and be attached on the one hand to an edge of the lamp base support 10 and on the other hand to an outer edge of the reflector 6, for example by means of a form-fitting connection such as a snap-in connection or a Screw connection, or non-positive and / or material fit by gluing or in some other way.

Vorteilhafterweise schließt das Gehäuseteil 9 staubdicht an den Leuchtengrundträger 10 sowie den Reflektor 6 an, so dass ein Eintritt von Staub oder Schmutz in den Leuchteninnenraum 14 von der Seite her verhindert ist.Advantageously, the housing part 9 adjoins the luminaire base support 10 and the reflector 6 in a dust-tight manner, so that entry of dust or dirt into the luminaire interior 14 from the side is prevented.

Wie die Figuren 3-5 zeigen, ist in der genannten Aussparung 7 des Reflektors 6 vorteilhafterweise eine Sekundärlinse 8 eingesetzt, die vorteilhafterweise die gesamte Aussparung 7 verschließen kann. Hierdurch wird von der genannten Sekundärlinse 8, dem Reflektor 6 sowie dem transparenten Gehäuseteil 9 gemeinsam ein Leuchtengehäuse gebildet, welches die Primärlinse 3 umschließt und den Eintritt von Schmutz und Staub in das Leuchteninnere sicher verhindert. Insbesondere wird Staub und Schmutz von der Oberfläche der Primärlinse 3, der Reflektorfläche des Reflektors 6 sowie der Lichteintrittsfläche der Sekundärlinse 8 ferngehalten, so dass eine dauerhaft effiziente Lichtabstrahlung erzielt werden kann.As the Figures 3-5 show, a secondary lens 8 is advantageously used in the mentioned recess 7 of the reflector 6, which advantageously the entire recess 7 can close. As a result, a luminaire housing is formed jointly by the mentioned secondary lens 8, the reflector 6 and the transparent housing part 9, which surrounds the primary lens 3 and reliably prevents dirt and dust from entering the interior of the luminaire. In particular, dust and dirt are kept away from the surface of the primary lens 3, the reflector surface of the reflector 6 and the light entry surface of the secondary lens 8, so that a permanently efficient light emission can be achieved.

Vorteilhafterweise kann die genannte Sekundärlinse 8 durch lösbare Verbindungsmittel an dem Reflektor 6 lösbar befestigt sein, wobei beispielsweise eine formschlüssige Verbindung der Sekundärlinse 8 mit dem Reflektor 6 vorgesehen sein kann, beispielsweise in Form einer Schnappverbindung. Die Sekundärlinse 8 kann aber auch beispielsweise einen Kragen aufweisen, der den Rand der Aussparung 7 überdeckt, so dass die Sekundärlinse 8 von oben her in den Reflektor gelegt werden kann, ohne durchzurutschen. Andere Verbindungsmittel sind ebenfalls möglich.Advantageously, the named secondary lens 8 can be releasably attached to the reflector 6 by releasable connecting means, for example a positive connection of the secondary lens 8 to the reflector 6, for example in the form of a snap connection. The secondary lens 8 can, for example, also have a collar which covers the edge of the recess 7, so that the secondary lens 8 can be placed from above into the reflector without slipping through. Other connecting means are also possible.

Die genannte Sekundärlinse 8 fängt den durch die Aussparung 7 hindurchtretenden Teil des Lichtbündels bzw. -kegels 4 der Primärlinse 3 ein und formt diesen in gewünschter Weise um.Said secondary lens 8 captures the part of the light bundle or cone 4 of the primary lens 3 which passes through the recess 7 and reshapes it in the desired manner.

Wie die Figuren 3-5 zeigen, kann die genannte Sekundärlinse 8 als aufweitende Streulinse arbeiten, die den Abstrahlwinkel des eingefangenen Teils des Lichtkegels 4 weiter aufweitet, beispielsweise um ein größeres Objekt unter der Leuchte 1 wie einen Teppich oder dergleichen zu beleuchten, vgl. Fig. 3. Alternativ kann aber auch eine einengende Sammellinse als Sekundärlinse 8 vorgesehen werden, die den Abstrahlwinkel des eingefangenen Lichtkegelteils verjüngt bzw. weiter einengt, um spotartig ein unter der Leuchte 1 befindliches Objekt wie beispielsweise eine Vitrine brillant auszuleuchten, vgl. Fig. 5.As the Figures 3-5 show, said secondary lens 8 can work as a widening divergent lens which further widens the beam angle of the captured part of the light cone 4, for example to illuminate a larger object under the lamp 1 such as a carpet or the like, cf. Fig. 3 . Alternatively, however, a constricting converging lens can also be provided as the secondary lens 8, which tapers or further narrows the beam angle of the captured light cone part in order to brilliantly illuminate an object located under the lamp 1, such as a showcase, in a spot-like manner, cf. Fig. 5 .

Sozusagen zwischen einer Ausbildung als aufweitende Streulinse und einer Ausbildung als einengende Sammellinse kann die Sekundärlinse 8 auch eine mittlere Abstrahlcharakteristik besitzen, die den eingefangenen Teil des Lichtkegels 4 weder aufweitet noch einengt oder lediglich geringfügig aufweitet oder einengt.So to speak, between a design as a widening divergent lens and a design as a constricting converging lens, the secondary lens 8 can also have a medium emission characteristic that neither expands nor narrows the captured part of the light cone 4 or only widens or narrows it slightly.

Unabhängig von der aufweitenden, einengenden oder mittleren Abstrahlcharakteristik der Sekundärlinse 8 kann diese auch dazu benutzt werden, um die Abstrahlrichtung zu verändern, beispielsweise um die gemäß Fig. 3 senkrecht nach unten gehende Hauptabstrahlrichtung 5 leicht nach links oder rechts zu verkippen, um ein nicht unmittelbar unter der Leuchte angeordnetes, sondern dazu quer versetztes Objekt beleuchten zu können.Independently of the widening, narrowing or mean radiation characteristic of the secondary lens 8, this can also be used to change the radiation direction, for example by the direction shown in FIG Fig. 3 The main direction of radiation 5 going vertically downwards can be tilted slightly to the left or right in order to be able to illuminate an object which is not arranged directly under the lamp but is offset transversely thereto.

Die lösbar am Reflektor 6 befestigten Sekundärlinsen 8 gemäß den Figuren 3-5 bilden vorteilhafterweise einen Satz von Wechsellinsen, aus denen wahlweise eine für die Beleuchtungsaufgabe passende Linse ausgewählt und in den Reflektor 6 eingesetzt werden kann. Vorteilhafterweise besitzen sämtliche Exemplare des Wechsellinsensatzes einander entsprechende Anschlussmaße und Anschlusskonturierungen, so dass sie wechselweise in dieselbe Aussparung des Reflektors 6 eingesetzt werden können. Durch einen solchen Wechsellinsensatz lässt sich bei gleichbleibender, äußerer Optik der Leuchte 1 die Abstrahlcharakteristik signifikant variieren.The releasably attached to the reflector 6 secondary lenses 8 according to Figures 3-5 advantageously form a set of interchangeable lenses from which a suitable lens for the lighting task can be selected and inserted into the reflector 6. Advantageously, all copies of the interchangeable lens set have mutually corresponding connection dimensions and connection contours so that they can be inserted alternately into the same recess in the reflector 6. With such an interchangeable lens set, the emission characteristics can be varied significantly while the external optics of the lamp 1 remain the same.

Soll der Teil des Lichtkegels 4, der an sich durch die Aussparung 7 im Reflektor 6 hindurchtritt, gänzlich abgeblendet oder verkleinert werden, kann anstelle der genannten Sekundärlinsen 8 ggf. auch ein lichtundurchlässiger Einsatzdeckel oder Einsatzring in die Aussparung 7 eingesetzt werden, was beispielsweise bei einer Wandmontage hilfreich sein kann, bei der die Hauptabstrahlrichtung 5 liegend ausgerichtet ist.If the part of the light cone 4 that actually passes through the recess 7 in the reflector 6 is to be completely dimmed or reduced in size, instead of the mentioned secondary lenses 8, an opaque insert cover or insert ring can also be inserted into the recess 7, for example Wall mounting can be helpful in which the main radiation direction 5 is aligned horizontally.

Wie Fig. 6 zeigt, wird durch den Reflektor 6 und die Sekundärlinse 8 der von der Primärlinse 3 abgestrahlte Lichtkegel 4 einerseits in einen decken- bzw. wandflutenden Abstrahlbereich 12 sowie andererseits in einen kegel- oder bündelförmigen Abstrahlbereich 15 aufgespalten, wobei der letztgenannte Abstrahlbereich 15 im Querschnitt kreisförmig, aber auch oval oder elliptisch oder polygonal konturiert sein kann. Der genannte Abstrahlbereich 15 kann durch die Wahl der Sekundärlinse 8 verändert werden und beispielsweise einen Aufweitwinkel von 2 x 0° bis 2 x 60° oder 2 x 10° bis 2 x 50° oder 2 x 20° bis 2 x 40° besitzen, je nachdem, welche Beleuchtungsaufgabe zu erfüllen ist. Zwischen den beiden Abstrahlbereichen 12 und 15 blenden der Reflektor 6 sowie die Sekundärlinse 8 einen ringförmigen Keilbereich 13 ab, der sich vorteilhafterweise in einem Bereich von zumindest 60° bis 80° oder 50° bis 85° oder 45° bis 90° zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung 5 erstrecken kann, um eine Blendung von schräg in die Leuchte 1 schauenden Personen zu verhindern.As Fig. 6 shows, is through the reflector 6 and the secondary lens 8, the light cone 4 emitted by the primary lens 3 on the one hand in a ceiling or wall-flooding emission area 12 and on the other hand in a cone or split up bundle-shaped emission area 15, the last-mentioned emission area 15 having a circular, but also oval, elliptical or polygonal contour in cross section. Said radiation area 15 can be changed by the choice of secondary lens 8 and, for example, have a widening angle of 2 x 0 ° to 2 x 60 ° or 2 x 10 ° to 2 x 50 ° or 2 x 20 ° to 2 x 40 °, depending depending on which lighting task has to be fulfilled. Between the two emission areas 12 and 15, the reflector 6 and the secondary lens 8 mask an annular wedge area 13, which advantageously extends in a range of at least 60 ° to 80 ° or 50 ° to 85 ° or 45 ° to 90 ° to the main emission direction 5 can to prevent glare from people looking obliquely into the lamp 1.

Wie Fig. 7 zeigt, kann der Reflektor 6 auf seiner Reflektorfläche mit einer Facettierung versehen sein, die beispielsweise mehrere Hundert Facetten umfassen kann. Insbesondere können Facetten in drei oder mehr als fünf oder auch mehr als zehn Ringen um die Aussparung 7 herum mit jeweils mehr als 10 Facetten pro Ring angeordnet sein. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann im Wesentlichen die gesamte lichttechnisch aktive Reflektorfläche facettiert sein.As Fig. 7 shows, the reflector 6 can be provided with a faceting on its reflector surface, which can comprise several hundred facets, for example. In particular, facets can be arranged in three or more than five or even more than ten rings around the recess 7 with more than 10 facets per ring. As an alternative or in addition, essentially the entire reflector surface which is active in terms of lighting technology can be faceted.

Wie die Figuren 8-10 zeigen, kann die Sekundärlinse 8 vorteilhafterweise im Wesentlichen - grob gesprochen - plattenförmig bzw. scheibenförmig ausgebildet sein, um eine insgesamt kompakte, flache Bauweise der Leuchte 1 zu erzielen, wobei die Oberflächen der plattenförmigen bzw. scheibenförmigen Sekundärlinse 8 je nach Ausbildung als Sammellinse oder Streulinse konkav und/oder konvex gewölbt sein können.As the Figures 8-10 show, the secondary lens 8 can advantageously be essentially - roughly speaking - plate-shaped or disk-shaped in order to achieve an overall compact, flat design of the lamp 1, the surfaces of the plate-shaped or disk-shaped secondary lens 8 depending on the design as a converging lens or a diffusing lens can be concave and / or convex.

Wie die Figuren 9 und 10 zeigen, kann auch die Sekundärlinse 8 auf ihrer Lichteintrittsfläche und/oder auf ihrer Lichtaustrittsfläche mit einer Facettierung versehen sein, wobei auch hier eine Vielzahl von beispielsweise mehr als 100 Facetten vorgesehen sein können. Beispielsweise können mehrere Ringe von Facetten, beispielsweise mehr als drei oder mehr als fünf oder mehr als zehn Ringe von Facetten mit jeweils mehr als fünf oder mehr als zehn Facetten pro Ring vorgesehen sein.As the Figures 9 and 10 show, the secondary lens 8 can also be provided with a faceting on its light entry surface and / or on its light exit surface, with a multiplicity of, for example, more than 100 facets also being able to be provided here. For example, multiple rings of facets, for example more than three or more than five or more than ten rings of facets each having more than five or more than ten facets per ring.

Durch die Facettierung der Sekundärlinse 8 und/oder des Reflektors 6 kann eine insgesamt homogene, durchmischte Abstrahlung erzielt werden.By faceting the secondary lens 8 and / or the reflector 6, an overall homogeneous, mixed radiation can be achieved.
