Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Leuchte mit zumindest einem Projektionsscheinwerfer zum Abstrahlen eines Lichtstrahlenbündels sowie einem Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanel zum Umlenken des Lichtstrahlenbündels des Projektionsscheinwerfers auf eine oder mehrere zu beleuchtende Flächen.The present invention relates to a lamp with at least one projection headlight for emitting a light beam and a mirror and/or lens panel for deflecting the light beam of the projection headlight onto one or more surfaces to be illuminated.

Leuchten mit einem Scheinwerfer, der mehrere LEDs aufweist, sowie einem Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanel zum Umlenken des Lichtstrahlenbündels des Scheinwerfers sind beispielsweise aus den Schriften US 6,250,774 B1 , EP 22 64 362 A1 oder US 2012/0039613 A1 bekannt.Luminaires with a headlight that has a number of LEDs and a mirror and/or lens panel for deflecting the light beam of the headlight are, for example, from the documents U.S. 6,250,774 B1 , EP 22 64 362 A1 or US 2012/0039613 A1 famous.

Um einen Raum oder eine Fläche hell und gleichmäßig zu beleuchten und ein homogenes Erscheinungsbild zu erzeugen, ohne dabei mit hohem Lichtdruck harte Schatten zu verursachen, werden gerne indirekte Leuchtensysteme eingesetzt. Dabei wird der von dem Projektionsscheinwerfer abgestrahlte Lichtstrahlenkegel nicht direkt auf die zu beleuchtende Fläche bzw. den zu beleuchtenden Bereich gelenkt, sondern zunächst vom zu beleuchtenden Bereich weg auf einen Spiegel, der das Lichtstrahlenbündel umlenkt und auf die beleuchtende Fläche richtet. Beispielsweise können Leseecken in einem Wohnzimmer oder ein Schreibtisch in einem Büro von oben her indirekt ausgeleuchtet werden, indem der Projektionsscheinwerfer das Lichtstrahlenbündel nach oben zur Decke hin abstrahlt und ein oberhalb des Projektionsscheinwerfers angeordneter Spiegel das Lichtstrahlenbündel nach unten auf den Sessel der Leseecke oder den Schreibtisch zurückwirft. In ähnlicher Weise können Außenbeleuchtungen den zu beleuchtenden Raum indirekt aufhellen. Beispielsweise sind Straßenlaternen bekannt, bei denen ein Projektionsscheinwerfer senkrecht oder schräg nach oben in den Himmel strahlt, wobei ein oberhalb des Projektionsscheinwerfers angeordneter Spiegel das Licht zurück nach unten auf das Trottoir, die Straße oder den öffentlichen Platz lenkt. Auch Fassadenbeleuchtungen können in entsprechender Weise aufgebaut sein, wobei ein Projektionsscheinwerfer von der Fassade wegstrahlen kann und ein vor der Fassade angeordneter Spiegel das Licht zurück auf die Fassade wirft.Indirect lighting systems are often used to illuminate a room or an area brightly and evenly and to create a homogeneous appearance without causing hard shadows due to high light pressure. The light beam cone emitted by the projection headlight is not directed directly onto the surface to be illuminated or the area to be illuminated, but first away from the area to be illuminated onto a mirror, which deflects the light beam and directs it onto the surface to be illuminated. For example, reading corners in a living room or a desk in an office can be indirectly illuminated from above by the projection spotlight emitting the light beam upwards towards the ceiling and a mirror arranged above the projection spotlight throwing the light beam back down onto the armchair in the reading corner or the desk . In similarly, outdoor lights can indirectly illuminate the space to be lit. For example, street lamps are known in which a projection headlight shines vertically or diagonally upwards into the sky, with a mirror arranged above the projection headlight directing the light back down onto the pavement, the street or the public square. Facade lighting can also be constructed in a corresponding manner, with a projection spotlight being able to radiate away from the facade and a mirror arranged in front of the facade reflecting the light back onto the facade.

Dabei werden nicht nur Spiegel, sondern bisweilen auch Linsenpanele bzw. - platten verwendet, um das vom Projektionsscheinwerfer kommende Licht umzulenken und/oder umzuformen. Solche Linsenplatten können eine oder mehrere, insbesondere auch viele in Matrixform angeordnete Linsenabschnitte bzw. -facetten umfassen, die das Licht jeweils in gewünschter Weise umformen, wobei solche Linsenpanele eben nach Art einer Tischplatte, aber auch gewölbt, beispielsweise leicht schalenförmig ausgebildet sein können.Not only mirrors, but sometimes also lens panels or plates are used in order to deflect and/or reshape the light coming from the projection headlight. Such lens panels can comprise one or more, in particular also many, lens sections or facets arranged in a matrix form, each of which reshapes the light in the desired manner, with such lens panels being designed in the manner of a table top, but also curved, for example slightly bowl-shaped.

Entsprechend den unterschiedlichen Einsatzzwecken können solche Leuchten als Steh- oder Tischleuchten ausgebildet sein, bei denen der Projektionsscheinwerfer und das Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanel übereinander an einem gemeinsamen Träger beispielsweise in Form eines Ständers oder eines Laternenmasts befestigt sein können. Alternativ können die Projektionsscheinwerfer und Spiegel bzw. Linsenpanele aber auch Teil einer Pendelleuchte sein, die an der Decke pendelnd aufgehängt ist. Andere Montagemöglichkeiten sind je nach Anwendungszweck ebenfalls möglich.Depending on the different applications, such lamps can be designed as floor lamps or table lamps, in which the projection spotlight and the mirror and/or lens panel can be attached one above the other to a common support, for example in the form of a stand or a lamp post. Alternatively, the projection headlights and mirrors or lens panels can also be part of a pendant light that is suspended from the ceiling in a pendulum fashion. Other mounting options are also possible depending on the application.

Dabei ist es hilfreich, wenn das Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanel in seiner Winkelstellung veränderbar befestigt bzw. gelagert ist, um durch Verkippen des Panels den zu beleuchtenden Bereich verstellen zu können. Ebenfalls hilfreich ist es, wenn die Beabstandung zwischen Projektionsscheinwerfer und Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanel verstellt werden kann, gegebenenfalls auch in Verbindung mit einer Verstellung der Brennweite der Optik des Projektionsscheinwerfers, um den auszuleuchtenden Bereich kleiner oder größer machen zu können.It is helpful here if the mirror and/or lens panel is fastened or mounted such that it can be changed in its angular position, in order to be able to adjust the area to be illuminated by tilting the panel. It is also helpful if the distance between the projection spotlight and the mirror and/or lens panel can be adjusted, possibly also in connection with an adjustment the focal length of the optics of the projection headlight in order to be able to make the area to be illuminated smaller or larger.

Die Projektionsscheinwerfer können dabei selbst eine der Lichtquelle vorgeschaltete Optik in Form einer Linse und/oder eines Reflektors aufweisen, um das von einer oder mehreren Lichtquellen abgegebene Licht zu einem Lichtstrahlenbündel umzuformen, das sich in der gewünschten Weise kegelartig aufweiten oder auch asymmetrisch beschaffen sein kann. Umfasst die Projektionsoptik nach Art eines Zoom-Objektivs zueinander verstellbare Linsen und/oder Reflektoren, kann die Aufweitung des Lichtstrahlenbündels verändert werden.The projection headlights can themselves have optics in the form of a lens and/or a reflector connected upstream of the light source, in order to convert the light emitted by one or more light sources into a light beam, which expands conically in the desired manner or can also be asymmetrical. If the projection optics include lenses and/or reflectors that can be adjusted relative to one another in the manner of a zoom lens, the widening of the light beam can be changed.

Solche Verstellmöglichkeiten der Spiegel- bzw. Linsenpanelausrichtung und/oder der Projektionsoptik sind jedoch oft nicht ausreichend, um den zu beleuchtenden Bereich tatsächlich so ausleuchten zu können, wie dies von der Raumsituation her notwendig wäre oder von einem individuellen Raumnutzer gewünscht wird.However, such adjustment options for the mirror or lens panel alignment and/or the projection optics are often not sufficient to actually be able to illuminate the area to be illuminated in the way that would be necessary due to the room situation or as desired by an individual room user.

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 eine situationsabhängige Anpassbarkeit der Raumausleuchtung ermöglicht werden, die verschiedene Flächen bzw. Bereiche verschieden ausleuchtbar macht und unterschiedliche Lichtatmosphären ermöglicht.The present invention is therefore based on the object of creating an improved lamp of the type mentioned which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art and further develops the latter in an advantageous manner. In particular, a situation-dependent adaptability of the room illumination should be made possible, which makes it possible to illuminate different surfaces or areas differently and enables different lighting atmospheres.

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 lamp according to claim 1. Preferred developments of the invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims.

Es wird also vorgeschlagen, das vom Projektionsscheinwerfer abgestrahlte Lichtstrahlenbündel und auch das Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanel, auf das das abgestrahlte Lichtstrahlenbündel trifft, zu verpixeln und in eine Vielzahl von Lichtpunkten bzw. kleine Spiegelflächenstücke bzw. kleine Linsenstücke zu zerlegen. Dabei ist der Spiegel als Spiegelfacettenmatrix, die eine Vielzahl von Spiegelfacetten umfasst, bzw. das Linsenpanel als Linsenmatrix umfassend eine Vielzahl von Linsen ausgebildet und der Projektionsscheinwerfer weist ein Lichtquellenfeld, das eine Vielzahl von pixel- oder punktförmigen Lichtquellen umfasst, sowie eine Projektionsoptik auf, die das Licht aus verschiedenen pixel- oder punktförmigen Lichtquellen auf verschiedene Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten wirft. Insbesondere ist die genannte Projektionsoptik so ausgebildet, dass die pixel- bzw. punktförmigen Lichtquellen des Lichtquellenfelds nicht alle und auch nicht den Großteil der verschiedenen Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten beleuchten, sondern das Licht einer pixel- bzw. punktförmigen Lichtquelle des Lichtquellenfelds nur auf eine oder einige wenige Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten fällt. Durch die gezielte Ausleuchtung von einzelnen Facetten des Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfelds können den Facetten unterschiedliche Funktionen zugewiesen bzw. unterschiedliche Beleuchtungscharakteristiken erzielt werden.It is therefore proposed to pixelate the light beam emitted by the projection headlight and also the mirror and/or lens panel on which the emitted light beam impinges and to break it down into a large number of points of light or small mirror surface pieces or small lens pieces. The mirror is designed as a mirror facet matrix that includes a large number of mirror facets, or the lens panel is designed as a lens matrix comprising a large number of lenses and the projection headlight has a light source field which comprises a large number of pixel or point light sources, and projection optics which direct the light from various pixel or point light sources onto various mirror and /or throws lens facets. In particular, the projection optics mentioned are designed in such a way that the pixel or point light sources of the light source field do not illuminate all or even the majority of the various mirror and/or lens facets, but the light of a pixel or point light source of the light source field only on one or a few mirror and/or lens facets. Through the targeted illumination of individual facets of the mirror and/or lens field, different functions can be assigned to the facets or different illumination characteristics can be achieved.

Erfindungsgemäß ist dabei vorgesehen, dass eine Steuervorrichtung zum individuellen Einstellen verschiedener Beleuchtungsszenarien in verschiedenen Teilbereichen der zu beleuchtenden Fläche vorgesehen und dazu ausgebildet ist, die pixel- oder punktförmigen Lichtquellen des Lichtquellenfelds in Abhängigkeit der im jeweils beleuchteten Teilbereich gewünschten Lichtstärke und/oder Lichtfarbe einzeln oder gruppenweise unterschiedlich anzusteuern.According to the invention, it is provided that a control device is provided for individually setting different lighting scenarios in different sub-areas of the surface to be illuminated and is designed to control the pixel-shaped or punctiform light sources of the light source field individually or in groups depending on the light intensity and/or light color desired in the respectively illuminated sub-area to control differently.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorteilhafterweise vorgesehen sein, dass die Zahl der pixel- und/oder punktförmigen Lichtquellen des Lichtquellenfelds ein ganzzahliges Vielfaches der Zahl der Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten ist oder der genannten Zahl der Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten entspricht. Mit anderen Worten sind also gleich viele oder mehr pixel- bzw. punktförmige Lichtquellen vorgesehen als Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sind.In a further development of the invention, it can advantageously be provided that the number of pixel and/or point light sources in the light source array is an integer multiple of the number of mirror and/or lens facets or corresponds to the stated number of mirror and/or lens facets. In other words, the same number or more pixel or point light sources are provided as there are mirror and/or lens facets.

Vorteilhafterweise kann die Projektionsoptik des Projektionsscheinwerfers dabei derart ausgebildet sein, dass bei gleich vielen Lichtquellenpunkten und Spiegelfacetten eine Eins-zu-Eins-Beleuchtung umgesetzt wird, das heißt jede pixel- bzw. punktförmige Lichtquelle "ihrer" Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacette beleuchtet. Insbesondere kann jede pixel- bzw. punktförmige Lichtquelle nur auf eine Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacette strahlen, wobei jede Lichtquelle auf eine andere Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacette strahlt.Advantageously, the projection optics of the projection headlight can be designed in such a way that with the same number of light source points and mirror facets, one-to-one illumination is implemented, ie each pixel or point light source illuminates "its" mirror and/or lens facet. Especially each pixel or point light source can only radiate onto one mirror and/or lens facet, with each light source radiating onto a different mirror and/or lens facet.

Alternativ hierzu kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass bei mehr pixel- bzw. punktförmigen Lichtquellen als Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten mehrere Lichtquellen oder mehrere Strahler gruppenweise zusammengefasst gemeinsam auf eine Lichtfacette strahlen. Beispielsweise kann vorgesehen sein, dass jeweils zwei oder jeweils drei oder jeweils vier oder mehr pixel- bzw. punktförmige Lichtquellen auf eine gemeinsame Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacette strahlen. Hierbei kann vorteilhafterweise auch vorgesehen sein, dass jede pixel- bzw. punktförmige Lichtquelle bzw. jeder Strahler auf nur eine Lichtfacette strahlt.As an alternative to this, it can also be provided that when there are more pixel or point light sources than mirror and/or lens facets, several light sources or several emitters combined in groups radiate together onto one light facet. For example, it can be provided that two or three or four or more pixel or point light sources radiate onto a common mirror and/or lens facet. In this case, it can advantageously also be provided that each pixel-shaped or point-shaped light source or each emitter radiates onto only one light facet.

Alternativ können aber auch mehr Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sein als Strahler bzw. Lichtquellen. Bei dieser Konfiguration kann eine Lichtquelle bzw. ein Strahler jeweils mehrere Facetten bestrahlen, beispielsweise im Verhältnis 1:2, sodass jeder Strahler immer zwei Facetten bestrahlt, wobei aber auch andere Zuordnungen möglich sind, beispielsweise dergestalt, dass ein Strahler vier Facetten und ein anderer Strahler drei Facetten bestrahlt.Alternatively, however, more mirror and/or lens facets can also be provided than emitters or light sources. In this configuration, a light source or an emitter can each irradiate several facets, for example in a ratio of 1:2, so that each emitter always irradiates two facets, but other assignments are also possible, for example such that one emitter has four facets and another emitter three facets irradiated.

Vorteilhafterweise kann das Verhältnis von Lichtquellen bzw. Strahlern zu Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten im Bereich von 4:1 bis 1:4 betragen.Advantageously, the ratio of light sources or emitters to mirror and/or lens facets can be in the range from 4:1 to 1:4.

Um eine flächige Ausleuchtung im Zielbereich zu erreichen, können verschiedene Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten, die im Zielbereich verschiedene Teilbereiche bestrahlen können, im Zielbereich zumindest näherungsweise gleiche Lichtverteilungen erzeugen.In order to achieve planar illumination in the target area, different mirror and/or lens facets, which can irradiate different partial areas in the target area, can produce at least approximately the same light distributions in the target area.

Vorteilhafterweise können die pixel- bzw. punktförmigen Lichtquellen des Lichtquellenfelds einzeln oder gruppenweise angesteuert werden, sodass verschiedene Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten der Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix in unterschiedlicher Weise und/oder variabel beleuchtet werden können. Insbesondere können die pixel- bzw. punktförmigen Lichtquellen einzeln oder gruppenweise ein- und ausgeschaltet und/oder gedimmt und/oder in ihrer Lichtfarbe verändert werden. Dementsprechend ist es durch Ein- oder Ausschalten, Dimmen oder Farbverändern einzelner Lichtquellenpunkte bzw. einzelner Gruppen von Lichtquellenpunkten möglich, verschiedene Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten abzuschalten oder heller zu bestrahlen oder in der Farbe anders zu bestrahlen und dementsprechend auf der zu beleuchtenden Fläche bzw. in dem zu beleuchtenden Bereich verschiedene Teilbereiche unterschiedlich zu beleuchten.Advantageously, the pixel or point light sources of the light source field can be controlled individually or in groups, so that different mirror and/or lens facets of the mirror and/or lens facet matrix can be illuminated in different ways and/or variably. Especially the pixel or point light sources can be switched on and off and/or dimmed and/or changed in their light color individually or in groups. Accordingly, by switching on or off, dimming or changing the color of individual light source points or individual groups of light source points, it is possible to switch off different mirror and/or lens facets or to irradiate them more brightly or to irradiate them differently in color and accordingly focus on the area or area to be illuminated. to illuminate different sub-areas differently in the area to be illuminated.

Beispielsweise kann bei einer zu beleuchtenden Leseecke oder einem zu beleuchtenden Schreibtisch wahlweise nur ein benutzter Lesesessel oder die benutzte Schreibtischseite hell erleuchtet werden, während ein restlicher Teil der Leseecke oder ein gegenüberliegender Abschnitt des Schreibtischs unbeleuchtet oder weniger hell beleuchtet bleibt. In gleicher Weise kann beispielsweise ein benutzter Leseplatz oder der Dokumentenplatz vor dem Schreibtischstuhl mit kontrastreichem, eher weißem Licht ausgeleuchtet werden, um besser lesen zu können, während ein unbenutzter Teil der Leseecke bzw. ein restlicher Teil des Schreibtisches eher warmweiß bzw. stärker gelb beleuchtet werden kann, um die Raumatmosphäre zu betonen.For example, in the case of a reading corner or desk that is to be illuminated, only a used reading chair or the side of the desk that is in use can be brightly illuminated, while a remaining part of the reading corner or an opposite section of the desk remains unlit or less brightly lit. In the same way, for example, a used reading area or the document area in front of the desk chair can be illuminated with high-contrast, rather white light in order to be able to read better, while an unused part of the reading corner or the remaining part of the desk is illuminated in a warm white or stronger yellow can to emphasize the atmosphere of the room.

Vorteilhafterweise können die einzelnen pixel- bzw. punktförmigen Lichtquellen des Lichtquellenfelds einzeln oder gruppenweise jeweils unabhängig voneinander variabel gesteuert werden, sodass beispielsweise ein Lichtquellenpunkt unabhängig vom Ein- und Ausschaltzustand der anderen Lichtquellenpunkte gedimmt und/oder in der Lichtfarbe verändert werden kann und/oder individuell abgeschaltet bzw. eingeschaltet werden kann. Durch eine solche individuelle Steuerbarkeit der einzelnen Lichtquellenpunkte des Lichtquellenfelds wird eine große Variabilität in den Ausleuchtungsmöglichkeiten erzielt, was eine nahezu beliebig feine Anpassung an die jeweilige Situation erlaubt.Advantageously, the individual pixel-shaped or point-shaped light sources of the light source field can be variably controlled individually or in groups, each independently of one another, so that, for example, one light source point can be dimmed and/or changed in the light color and/or switched off individually, independently of the on and off status of the other light source points or can be switched on. With such an individual controllability of the individual light source points of the light source field, a large variability in the illumination possibilities is achieved, which allows an almost arbitrarily fine adjustment to the respective situation.

Beispielsweise können jeweils zwei Strahler eine Facette bzw. Facettengruppe des Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanels bestrahlen, wobei von den beiden Strahlern einer warmweißes Licht und der andere kaltweißes Licht abstrahlen kann, sodass je nach Dimmen bzw. Abschalten des einen oder des anderen Strahlers kaltweißes oder warmweißes Licht oder auch eine Mischung hieraus erzeugt werden kann. In Weiterbildung der Erfindung können auch andersfarbige Strahler oder mehr als zwei Strahler zu einer Strahlergruppe zusammengefasst sein, welche dieselben Facetten bestrahlen, um in der genannten Weise die Farbtönung variieren zu können.For example, two emitters can irradiate one facet or facet group of the mirror and/or lens panel, one of the two emitters can emit warm white light and the other cold white light, so that depending on the dimming or switching off of one or the other spotlight, cold white or warm white light or a mixture thereof can be generated. In a development of the invention, emitters of different colors or more than two emitters can also be combined to form a group of emitters, which irradiate the same facets in order to be able to vary the color shade in the manner mentioned.

Das genannte Lichtquellenfeld mit einer Vielzahl von punkt- bzw. pixelartigen Lichtquellen kann in vorteilhafter Weiterbildung der Erfindung eine oder mehrere Pixel-LEDs umfassen. Solche Pixel-LEDs sind per se bekannt und umfassen ein matrixartiges Leuchtpunktfeld, das von separat ansteuerbaren Halbleiterplättchen gebildet sein kann, die zu einem gemeinsamen LED-Chip zusammengefasst sein können, insbesondere auf einem gemeinsamen Trägersubstrat angeordnet und/oder von einer gemeinsamen oder auch von separaten Primärlinsen überdeckt bzw. darin eingebettet sein können.In an advantageous development of the invention, the light source field mentioned with a multiplicity of point-like or pixel-like light sources can comprise one or more pixel LEDs. Such pixel LEDs are known per se and comprise a matrix-like field of luminous dots, which can be formed from separately controllable semiconductor chips, which can be combined to form a common LED chip, in particular arranged on a common carrier substrate and/or from a common or also from separate ones Primary lenses can be covered or embedded in it.

Solche Pixel-LEDs umfassen regelmäßig eine Vielzahl von LED-Pixeln, beispielsweise mehr als 50 oder mehr als 100 oder auch noch mehr als 500 LED-Pixel. Beispielsweise können Pixel-LEDs in Form von 32 mal 32 in einer Matrix angeordneten Pixeln Verwendung finden.Such pixel LEDs regularly include a large number of LED pixels, for example more than 50 or more than 100 or even more than 500 LED pixels. For example, pixel LEDs in the form of 32 by 32 pixels arranged in a matrix can be used.

Vorteilhafterweise kann die genannte Lichtquellenmatrix plattenförmig, insbesondere als ebene Platte ausgebildet sein.Advantageously, said light source matrix can be designed in the form of a plate, in particular as a flat plate.

Die vor das Lichtquellenfeld geschaltete Projektionsoptik kann eine oder mehrere Linsen und/oder einen oder mehreren Reflektoren umfassen, wobei auch eine Hybridoptik in Form zumindest einer Linse und zumindest einem Reflektor vorgesehen sein kann. Vorteilhafterweise ist die genannte Projektionsoptik derart ausgebildet, dass sie das gesamte vom Lichtquellenfeld abgegebene Licht einfängt und zu einem Lichtstrahlenbündel formt, welches auf den genannten Spiegel geworfen wird.The projection optics connected in front of the light source field can comprise one or more lenses and/or one or more reflectors, it also being possible for hybrid optics in the form of at least one lens and at least one reflector to be provided. Advantageously, said projection optics are designed in such a way that they capture all of the light emitted by the light source field and form it into a bundle of light rays, which is thrown onto said mirror.

Die Projektionsoptik bildet eine abbildende Optik. Dabei weist die Projektionsoptik zumindest eine gemeinsame Linse und/oder einen gemeinsamen Reflektor auf, die/der von der Vielzahl von Lichtquellen mit Licht bestrahlt wird und dabei das Licht einer jeweiligen Lichtquelle individuell nur auf eine oder mehrere Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten wirft.The projection optics form an imaging optics. The projection optics have at least one common lens and/or a common reflector, which is irradiated with light from the plurality of light sources and throws the light of a respective light source individually onto only one or more mirror and/or lens facets.

Das genannte Spiegel- und/oder Linsenpanel kann ebenfalls vorteilhafterweise plattenförmig, insbesondere als ebene Platte ausgebildet sein, wobei durch die gegebenenfalls leicht ballige oder leicht konkave Konturierung der Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix nur bei insgesamter Betrachtung plattenförmig ausgebildet ist und von Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacette zu Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacette einen leichten Übergang und/oder eine leicht reliefartige Konturierung besitzen kann. Insgesamt betrachtet aber ist die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix vorteilhafterweise in Form einer dünnen, insbesondere etwa ebenen Platte ausgebildet.Said mirror and/or lens panel can also advantageously be designed as a plate, in particular as a flat plate, with the mirror and/or lens facet matrix being plate-shaped only when viewed as a whole due to the optionally slightly convex or slightly concave contouring of the mirror and/or lens facets and can have a slight transition and/or a slightly relief-like contouring from mirror and/or lens facet to mirror and/or lens facet. Viewed overall, however, the mirror and/or lens facet matrix is advantageously designed in the form of a thin, in particular approximately flat, plate.

Die genannte Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix ist dabei in Weiterbildung der Erfindung von dem Projektionsscheinwerfer beabstandet angeordnet. Insbesondere liegt die genannte Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix nicht innerhalb eines Scheinwerfergehäuses, sondern ist außerhalb und beabstandet vom Scheinwerfergehäuse angeordnet. Gleichwohl kann die Leuchte einen gemeinsamen Träger für die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix und dem Projektionsscheinwerfer umfassen, beispielsweise in Form eines Stehleuchtenträgers, eines Tischleuchtentragarms oder eines Pendelleuchtenträgers, an dem sowohl die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix als auch der Projektionsscheinwerfer voneinander beabstandet montiert werden können.In a development of the invention, said mirror and/or lens facet matrix is arranged at a distance from the projection headlight. In particular, said mirror and/or lens facet matrix is not located within a headlight housing, but is arranged outside and at a distance from the headlight housing. Nevertheless, the lamp can comprise a common support for the mirror and/or lens facet matrix and the projection headlight, for example in the form of a floor lamp support, a table lamp support arm or a pendant light support, on which both the mirror and/or lens facet matrix and the projection headlight are mounted at a distance from one another be able.

Die genannten Spiegelfacetten und/oder Linsenfacetten der Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix können grundsätzlich alle gleich ausgebildet und/oder konturiert und/oder dimensioniert sein. Alternativ kann die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix aber auch voneinander verschieden ausgebildete Spiegelfacetten und/oder verschieden ausgebildete Linsenfacetten umfassen, um durch Bestrahlen einer Facettengruppe ein anderes Beleuchtungsszenario zu realisieren als bei Bestrahlen hiervon verschieden ausgebildeter Facetten.The mirror facets and/or lens facets of the mirror and/or lens facet matrix mentioned can basically all be designed and/or contoured and/or dimensioned the same. Alternatively, the mirror and/or lens facet matrix can also comprise mirror facets and/or lens facets that are designed differently from one another, in order to irradiate a facet group to realize a different lighting scenario than when irradiating differently designed facets.

Die genannte Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix kann dabei ausschließlich aus Spiegelfacetten bestehen, oder alternativ hierzu ausschließlich aus Linsenfacetten bestehen. Alternativ kann das Facettenpanel aber sowohl Spiegelfacetten als auch Linsenfacetten umfassen, beispielsweise in einem gleichmäßig einander durchsetzenden Muster, wobei beispielsweise in Reihen und Spalten betrachtet jeweils eine Spiegelfacette und eine Linsenfacette abwechselnd angeordnet sein können.Said mirror and/or lens facet matrix can consist exclusively of mirror facets, or alternatively consist exclusively of lens facets. Alternatively, the facet panel can include both mirror facets and lens facets, for example in a pattern that uniformly intersects one another, wherein a mirror facet and a lens facet can be arranged alternately, for example viewed in rows and columns.

Solche gemischten Spiegel- und Linsenfacettenpanele können insbesondere von Vorteil sein, um bei Bestrahlung des Panels von einer Seite her verschiedene Raumbereiche, die auf verschiedenen Seiten des Panels liegen, unterschiedlich auszuleuchten. Wird beispielsweise ein solches Mischpanel in liegender Ausrichtung von unten her bestrahlt, können über die Spiegelfacetten Lichtstrahlen auf den Boden gelenkt und somit ein Bodenbereich über die Spiegelfacetten ausgeleuchtet werden, während der durch die Linsen hindurchtretende Lichtanteil einen Deckenbereich beleuchten kann.Such mixed mirror and lens facet panels can be particularly advantageous in order to illuminate different spatial areas that lie on different sides of the panel differently when the panel is irradiated from one side. If, for example, such a mixed panel is irradiated from below in a horizontal orientation, light beams can be directed onto the floor via the mirror facets and thus a floor area can be illuminated via the mirror facets, while the light component passing through the lenses can illuminate a ceiling area.

Wird ein solches Mischpanel von gegenüberliegenden Seiten her beleuchtet, können durch beispielsweise unterschiedliche lichttechnische Ausbildung der Spiegelfacetten und der Linsenfacetten verschiedene Lichtszenarien im gleichen auszuleuchtenden Bereich erzielt werden. Ist beispielsweise ein Mischpanel liegend angeordnet und sind Strahler oberhalb und unterhalb vorgesehen, kann beispielsweise ein Bodenbereich durch Bestrahlen von unten her über die Spiegelfacetten beleuchtet werden. Gleichzeitig kann ein Bodenbereich, der deckungsgleich oder abweichend angeordnet bzw. ausgebildet sein kann, auch durch Bestrahlen des Panels von oben her, nämlich über die Linsenfacetten ausgeleuchtet werden.If such a mixed panel is illuminated from opposite sides, different lighting scenarios can be achieved in the same area to be illuminated by, for example, different photometric design of the mirror facets and the lens facets. For example, if a mixed panel is arranged horizontally and radiators are provided above and below, a floor area can be illuminated by irradiation from below via the mirror facets. At the same time, a bottom area, which can be arranged or formed congruently or differently, can also be illuminated by irradiating the panel from above, namely via the lens facets.

Insbesondere kann die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix unterschiedlich stark aufweitende oder stärker zonierende Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten umfassen, also einerseits Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten, die das darauf geworfene Lichtstrahlenbündel unter einem relativ breiteren Abstrahlwinkel wieder abstrahlen und andererseits weniger stark aufweitende oder fokussierende Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten, die das darauf gestrahlte Lichtstrahlenbündel relativ schmäler abstrahlen oder fokussiert abstrahlen.In particular, the mirror and/or lens facet matrix can comprise mirror and/or lens facets that widen to different extents or create more zones, i.e., on the one hand, mirror and/or lens facets that emit the light beam that is thrown onto it at a relatively wider beam angle, and on the other hand, mirror and/or lens facets that widen or focus less, and that emit the light beam that is beamed onto it relatively narrower or emit it in a focused manner.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix auch die diffus abstrahlenden Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten umfassen. Solche Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten können beispielsweise in Form von Reflektorfacetten mit einer Oberflächenstrukturierung bzw. -aufrauung oder weiß oder mit einem kristallteppichartigen Spiegelfeinrelief ausgebildet sein.Alternatively or additionally, the mirror and/or lens facet matrix can also include the diffusely radiating mirror and/or lens facets. Such mirror and/or lens facets can be designed, for example, in the form of reflector facets with a surface structure or roughening or white or with a crystal carpet-like mirror fine relief.

Insbesondere kann die Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenmatrix konkave Spiegelfacetten und konvexe Linsenfacetten umfassen. Alternativ oder zusätzlich können auch sattelflächenartig gestaltete Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sein und mit anderen Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettenformen kombiniert sein.In particular, the mirror and/or lens facet matrix can comprise concave mirror facets and convex lens facets. Alternatively or additionally, mirror and/or lens facets designed like saddle surfaces can also be provided and combined with other mirror and/or lens facet shapes.

Umfasst das Panel auch Linsenfacetten, können unterschiedlich stark aufweitende oder stärker zonierende Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sein, also einerseits Linsenfacetten, die das darauf geworfene Lichtstrahlenbündel unter einem relativ breiteren Abstrahlwinkel wieder abstrahlen, während weniger stark aufweitende bzw. fokussierende Linsenfacetten das darauf gestrahlte Lichtstrahlenbündel relativ schmäler abstrahlen oder fokussiert abstrahlen.If the panel also includes lens facets, lens facets that widen or zone more strongly can be provided, i.e. on the one hand lens facets that emit the light beam that is thrown onto it at a relatively wider beam angle, while lens facets that widen or focus to a lesser extent emit the light beam that is beamed onto it relatively narrower or radiate focused.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich können auch diffus abstrahlende Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sein, die beispielsweise mit einer mattierten oder strukturierten Lichtabstrahlfläche versehen sein können.Alternatively or additionally, diffusely emitting lens facets can also be provided, which can be provided with a frosted or structured light emitting surface, for example.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung können auch an sich gleichartig konturierte aber auch verschieden konturierte Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sein, deren Hauptabstrahlrichtungen voneinander divergieren. Beispielsweise kann eine erste Gruppe von Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sein, die das vom Projektionsscheinwerfer her kommende Licht eher nach links lenkt, während eine zweite Gruppe von Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten das Projektionsscheinwerfer-Licht eher nach rechts leitet. Eine solche Gruppierung der Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten kann beispielsweise dazu genutzt werden, um einen als Doppelarbeitsplatz genutzten Schreibtisch auf einer benutzten Hälfte auszuleuchten und auf einer unbenutzten Hälfte unbeleuchtet zu lassen, um Licht zu sparen.In a further development of the invention, mirror and/or lens facets which are contoured in the same way but also differently contoured can also be provided, the main emission directions of which diverge from one another. For example, a first group of mirror and / or lens facets can be provided, the dated Projector headlights tend to direct the light coming from the left to the left, while a second set of mirror and/or lens facets tends to direct the projection headlight light to the right. Such a grouping of the mirror and/or lens facets can be used, for example, to illuminate a used half of a desk used as a double workstation and leave the unused half unlit in order to save light.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich zu unterschiedlich konturierten und/oder in unterschiedliche Richtungen strahlenden Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten können auch unterschiedlich beschichtete Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten vorgesehen sein. Beispielsweise kann eine erste Gruppe von Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten mit einer Beschichtung versehen sein, die kaltweiß abstrahlt, während eine zweite Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettengruppe derart beschichtet ist, dass sie warmweiß abstrahlt. Solche verschiedenen Beschichtungen einzelner Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten können beispielsweise aus unterschiedlichen Materialien bestehen. Beispielsweise können Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten mit Aluminiumoberfläche und Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten mit einer vergoldeten Oberfläche Verwendung finden, um den entsprechenden Lichtfarbton zu erzeugen. Durch Auswahl der jeweiligen Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten, was durch Ansteuerung der entsprechenden LED-Pixel erfolgen kann, kann eher goldenes Licht oder eher weißes Licht erzeugt werden.As an alternative or in addition to mirror and/or lens facets that are differently contoured and/or radiate in different directions, differently coated mirror and/or lens facets can also be provided. For example, a first group of mirror and/or lens facets can be provided with a coating that emits cool white, while a second group of mirror and/or lens facets is coated in such a way that it emits warm white. Such different coatings of individual mirror and/or lens facets can consist of different materials, for example. For example, mirror and/or lens facets with an aluminum surface and mirror and/or lens facets with a gold-plated surface can be used to create the corresponding light color tone. More golden light or more white light can be generated by selecting the respective mirror and/or lens facets, which can be done by driving the corresponding LED pixels.

In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann die Ansteuerung des pixelartigen Lichtquellenfelds auch dynamisch und/oder automatisch in Abhängigkeit eines oder mehrerer Signale einer Sensorik erfolgen, mit welcher Sensorik Umgebungs- und/oder Beleuchtungsparameter erfasst werden können.In an advantageous development of the invention, the pixel-like light source field can also be activated dynamically and/or automatically as a function of one or more signals from a sensor system, with which sensor system environmental and/or lighting parameters can be detected.

Insbesondere kann in Weiterbildung der Erfindung eine Steuervorrichtung vorgesehen sein, die ein Schattenmanagement ermöglicht. Insbesondere können bei Verschattung einzelner Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten und/oder der von den Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten beleuchteten Flächenabschnitte der beleuchteten Fläche die diese Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten beleuchtenden Lichtquellenpunkte abgeschaltet werden. Tritt beispielsweise ein Hindernis zwischen Projektionsscheinwerfer und Spiegel- bzw. Linsenmatrix, sodass auf einige Spiegel- bzw. Linsenfacetten kein Scheinwerferlicht mehr trifft, können die Lichtquellenpunkte, die die verschatteten Facetten an sich beleuchten würden, abgeschaltet werden, um Strom zu sparen.In particular, in a further development of the invention, a control device can be provided which enables shadow management. In particular, when individual mirror and/or lens facets and/or the surface sections of the illuminated surface illuminated by the mirror and/or lens facets are shadowed, the light source points illuminating these mirror and/or lens facets can be switched off. For example, if there is an obstacle between the projection headlight and the mirror or lens matrix, so that some mirror or lens facets are no longer illuminated by the spotlight, the light source points that would actually illuminate the shaded facets can be switched off in order to save power.

Eine entsprechende Sensorik kann beispielsweise Licht- und/oder Helligkeitssensoren umfassen, die in den Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten integriert bzw. in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft angeordnet sein können, um das Bestrahlen der einzelnen Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten oder einzelner Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacettengruppen zu erfassen.A corresponding sensor system can include light and/or brightness sensors, for example, which can be integrated into the mirror and/or lens facets or arranged in the immediate vicinity in order to irradiate the individual mirror and/or lens facets or individual mirror and/or to detect lens facet groups.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich zu einer Erfassungseinrichtung, die die Verschattung einzelner oder mehrerer Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten erfasst, kann auch eine Erfassungseinrichtung vorgesehen sein, die eine Verschattung der Teilflächenabschnitte der zu beleuchtenden Fläche erfasst, welche von einzelnen Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten beleuchtet werden. Beleuchten beispielsweise vier Untergruppen der Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten vier verschiedene Teilflächenbereiche eines Schreibtischs, kann an den vier Schreibtisch-Teilflächenabschnitten jeweils ein Sensorelement integriert sein, welches die Beleuchtung bzw. Lichtstärke in dem jeweiligen Teilflächenabschnitt erfasst. Tritt in einem der Teilflächenbereiche oder in mehreren Teilflächenbereichen eine Verschattung ein, obwohl an sich die zugehörigen Spiegel- und/oder Linsenfacetten noch beleuchtet werden, kann darauf geschlossen werden, dass eine Hand oder ein Kopf oder ein anderes Hindernis zwischen Spiegel und zu beleuchtender Fläche ist. Dementsprechend kann auch in Abhängigkeit der Signale der Sensorik, die die auszuleuchtende Fläche erfasst, die Lichtquellenpunkte des Lichtquellenfelds angesteuert werden.As an alternative or in addition to a detection device that detects the shading of one or more mirror and/or lens facets, a detection device can also be provided that detects shading of the partial surface sections of the surface to be illuminated that are illuminated by individual mirror and/or lens facets . For example, if four subgroups of the mirror and/or lens facets illuminate four different partial surface areas of a desk, a sensor element can be integrated into each of the four desk partial surface sections, which detects the illumination or light intensity in the respective partial surface section. If shadowing occurs in one of the partial surface areas or in several partial surface areas, although the associated mirror and/or lens facets are still illuminated, it can be concluded that a hand or a head or another obstacle is between the mirror and the surface to be illuminated . Accordingly, the light source points of the light source field can also be controlled as a function of the signals from the sensor system that detects the area to be illuminated.

Wie die Figuren 1 bis 3 zeigen, kann die Leuchte 1 beispielsweise in Form einer Stehleuchte ausgebildet sein, die einen aufrecht stehenden Leuchtenträger 2 beispielsweise in Form eines Pfostens aufweisen kann, der durch eine Aufstandsplatte am Boden aufstellbar ist. Es versteht sich jedoch, dass auch andere Leuchtenträger 2 oder in anderer Weise montierbare Leuchtenträger Verwendung finden können.As the Figures 1 to 3 show, the lamp 1 can be designed, for example, in the form of a floor lamp, which can have an upright lamp support 2, for example in the form of a post, which can be set up on the ground by means of a support plate. It goes without saying, however, that other light supports 2 or light supports that can be mounted in a different way can also be used.

An dem besagten Leuchtenträger 2 ist einerseits ein Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 montiert, der ein kegel- oder keulenförmiges Lichtstrahlenbündel 5 abstrahlt. Der genannte Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 ist dabei an dem Leuchtenträger 2 derart montiert, dass er an sich in die falsche Richtung strahlt, das heißt nicht die an sich zu beleuchtende Fläche 6 bzw. den zu beleuchtenden Bereich bestrahlt, sondern in eine davon entgegengesetzte oder schräg wegführende Richtung strahlt. Soll die Stehleuchte beispielsweise den Boden beleuchten, strahlt der Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 zur Decke bzw. zum Himmel.On the one hand, a projection headlight 3 is mounted on said lamp support 2, which emits a conical or club-shaped light beam 5. Said projection spotlight 3 is mounted on the light carrier 2 in such a way that it radiates in the wrong direction, i.e. it does not radiate onto the surface 6 to be illuminated or the area to be illuminated, but in a direction opposite thereto or leading away at an angle shine. For example, if the floor lamp is to illuminate the floor, the projection spotlight 3 shines towards the ceiling or towards the sky.

Um dennoch die wunschgemäß zu beleuchtende Fläche 6 zu bestrahlen, umfasst die Leuchte 1 ferner einen Spiegel 4, der von dem Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 beabstandet ebenfalls an dem Leuchtenträger 2 montiert sein kann. Im Falle einer Stehleuchte kann der genannte Spiegel 4 oberhalb des Projektionsscheinwerfers 3 montiert sein.In order nevertheless to irradiate the surface 6 to be illuminated as desired, the lamp 1 also includes a mirror 4 which can also be mounted on the lamp carrier 2 at a distance from the projection headlight 3 . In the case of a floor lamp, said mirror 4 can be mounted above projection headlight 3 .

Wie die Figuren 4 und 5 zeigen, kann der genannte Spiegel 4 insgesamt betrachtet zumindest näherungsweise plattenförmig, insbesondere in Form einer ebenen, dünnen Platte ausgebildet sein, wobei je nach Anwendungszweck aber auch eine gekrümmte Platte oder eine leicht wannenförmig konturierte Schale als Spiegel vorgesehen sein kann.As the figures 4 and 5 show, said mirror 4 viewed as a whole can be at least approximately plate-shaped, in particular in the form of a flat, be formed thin plate, depending on the application but also a curved plate or a slightly trough-shaped contoured shell can be provided as a mirror.

Dabei ist der genannte Spiegel 4 als Spiegelfacettenmatrix ausgebildet, die eine Vielzahl von Spiegelfacetten 7 umfasst, die in mehreren Reihen neben- oder übereinander angeordnet sein können. Der Spiegel 4 ist also in eine Vielzahl von Spiegelfacetten 7 unterteilt, die insgesamt in einem Muster angeordnet sind bzw. ein Facettenmuster bilden.Said mirror 4 is in the form of a mirror facet matrix which comprises a large number of mirror facets 7 which can be arranged in a number of rows next to one another or one above the other. The mirror 4 is thus subdivided into a multiplicity of mirror facets 7 which are arranged overall in a pattern or form a facet pattern.

Die Spiegelfacettenmatrix kann dabei mehr als 10 oder auch mehr als 50 oder auch mehr als 100 Spiegelfacetten aufweisen.The mirror facet matrix can have more than 10 or more than 50 or more than 100 mirror facets.

Wie die Figuren 6 und 7 zeigen, ist auch die Lichtquelle 8 des Projektionsscheinwerfers 3 in ein Lichtquellenfeld bestehend aus einer Vielzahl von punkt- bzw. pixelförmigen Lichtquellen unterteilt, welches Lichtquellenfeld ebenfalls plattenförmig bzw. eben ausgebildet sein kann. Insbesondere kann die Lichtquelle 8 eine oder mehrere Pixel-LEDs 9 umfassen, die mehr als 5 oder mehr als 10 oder mehr als 50 oder auch mehr als 100 pixelartige Lichtquellen umfassen kann, die von einzeln ansteuerbaren Halbleiterplättchen gebildet sein können.As the figures 6 and 7 show, the light source 8 of the projection headlight 3 is also divided into a light source field consisting of a large number of point or pixel-shaped light sources, which light source field can also be plate-shaped or flat. In particular, the light source 8 can include one or more pixel LEDs 9, which can include more than 5 or more than 10 or more than 50 or even more than 100 pixel-like light sources, which can be formed by individually controllable semiconductor chips.

Der genannten einen oder mehreren Pixel-LEDs 9 des Projektionsscheinwerfers 3 ist dabei zumindest eine Projektionsoptik 10 vorgeschaltet, die das in den Halbraum gestrahlte Licht der Pixel-LED 9 einfängt und zu einem Lichtstrahlenbündel 5 formt, welches auf den Spiegel 4 geworfen wird. Wie Figur 6 zeigt, kann die genannte Projektionsoptik 10 beispielsweise eine oder mehrere Linsen 11, gegebenenfalls aber auch einen oder mehreren Reflektoren umfassen.At least one projection optics 10 is connected upstream of the one or more pixel LEDs 9 of the projection headlight 3, which captures the light of the pixel LED 9 radiated into the hemisphere and forms it into a light beam 5, which is thrown onto the mirror 4. how figure 6 shows, said projection optics 10 can include, for example, one or more lenses 11, but optionally also one or more reflectors.

Die genannte Projektionsoptik 10 ist dabei derart ausgebildet und die Bausteine-Spiegel 4, Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 und Lichtquellenfeld derart aufeinander abgestimmt, dass das Licht eines einzelnen Pixels der Pixel-LED 9 auf nur eine Spiegelfacette 7 geworfen wird, wobei gegebenenfalls mehrere Pixel der Pixel-LED 9 dieselbe Spiegelfacette 7 bestrahlen können.Said projection optics 10 are designed in such a way and the building block mirror 4, projection headlight 3 and light source field are coordinated in such a way that the light from an individual pixel of the pixel LED 9 is directed onto only one mirror facet 7 is thrown, with several pixels of the pixel LED 9 possibly being able to irradiate the same mirror facet 7 .

Wie die Figuren 2 und 3 verdeutlichen, können in der Spiegelfacettenmatrix des Spiegels 4 verschieden ausgebildete Spiegelfacetten 7 vorgesehen und miteinander kombiniert sein. Wie Figur 2 zeigt, können konkav konturierte Spiegelfacetten 7 vorgesehen sein, die in einem breiten Strahlungswinkel abstrahlen, um den zu beleuchtenden Bereich 6 breit zu bestrahlen.As the figures 2 and 3 make clear, differently configured mirror facets 7 can be provided in the mirror facet matrix of the mirror 4 and combined with one another. how figure 2 shows, concavely contoured mirror facets 7 can be provided, which emit at a wide angle of radiation in order to broadly irradiate the area 6 to be illuminated.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich können aber auch, wie dies Figur 3 zeigt, schmäler abstrahlende bzw. fokussierende oder zonierende Spiegelfacetten 7 vorgesehen sein, um kleine Teilbereiche hell zu bestrahlen.Alternatively or additionally you can also like this figure 3 shows, narrower radiating or focusing or zoning mirror facets 7 can be provided in order to brightly irradiate small sub-areas.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich können auch diffus abstrahlende Spiegelfacetten 7 vorgesehen sein.Alternatively or additionally, diffusely radiating mirror facets 7 can also be provided.

Hiervon unabhängig können die Spiegelfacetten 7 einzeln oder gruppenweise verschieden beschichtet sein, beispielsweise mit einer kaltweißen Aluminiumbeschichtung und mit einer warmweiß abstrahlenden Goldbeschichtung.Irrespective of this, the mirror facets 7 can be coated differently individually or in groups, for example with a cold white aluminum coating and with a gold coating that radiates warm white.

Wie Figur 1 zeigt, kann die Leuchte 1 ferner eine Erfassungseinrichtung 12 aufweisen, die beispielsweise mehrere Sensorelemente 13 umfassen kann, um die Verschattung einer Spiegelfacette 7 oder einzelner Spiegelfacettengruppen zu erfassen und/oder die Verschattung einzelner Teilflächenbereiche der zu beleuchtenden Fläche 6 zu erfassen.how figure 1 shows, the lamp 1 can also have a detection device 12, which can include, for example, a plurality of sensor elements 13 in order to detect the shading of a mirror facet 7 or individual mirror facet groups and/or to detect the shading of individual partial surface areas of the surface 6 to be illuminated.

Eine Steuervorrichtung 14, mittels derer die Pixelpunkte der Pixel-LED 9 einzeln ansteuerbar sind, kann in Abhängigkeit der Signale der Erfassungseinrichtung 12 die Pixel der Pixel-LED 9 abschalten oder herunterdimmen, die abgeschattete Spiegelfacetten 7 bestrahlen bzw. die Spiegelfacetten 7 bestrahlen, deren zugeordnete Teilflächen der beleuchteten Fläche 6 verschattet sind.A control device 14, by means of which the pixel points of the pixel LEDs 9 can be controlled individually, can switch off or dim down the pixels of the pixel LEDs 9, which irradiate the shaded mirror facets 7 or the mirror facets 7, their associated Areas of the illuminated area 6 are shaded.

Vorteilhafterweise kann die genannte Steuervorrichtung 14 auch Eingabemittel 15 zum manuellen Eingeben verschiedener, vorwählbarer Beleuchtungsszenarien umfassen, um die Spiegelfacetten 7 einzeln und/oder gruppenweise unterschiedlich zu beleuchten und dementsprechend verschiedene Beleuchtungsszenarien an der zu beleuchtenden Fläche 6 zu erzeugen. Die genannten Eingabemittel 15 können dabei händisch zu betätigende Eingabemittel wie beispielsweise ein Touchscreen, aber auch andere Eingabemittel wie beispielsweise ein Sprachsteuerungselement und dergleichen umfassen.Advantageously, said control device 14 can also include input means 15 for manually entering different, preselectable lighting scenarios in order to illuminate mirror facets 7 individually and/or in groups differently and correspondingly to generate different lighting scenarios on surface 6 to be illuminated. Said input means 15 can include input means to be actuated manually, such as a touch screen, but also other input means, such as a voice control element and the like.

Wie Figur 8 zeigt, kann ein Spiegel- und Linsenpanel 4 sowohl Spiegelfacetten 7 als auch Linsenfacetten 70 umfassen, wobei die genannten Spiegelfacetten 7 und Linsenfacetten 70 in einem einander abwechselnden Muster angeordnet sein können. Durch die Verwendung von sowohl Spiegelfacetten 7 als auch Linsenfacetten 70 kann ein Teil des vom Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 auf das Panel 4 gestrahlte Licht zurückgespiegelt werden, wie dies bei den vorherigen Ausführungen erläutert wurde, während ein anderer Teil des Lichts, nämlich der auf die Linsenfacetten 70 treffende Lichtanteil durch das Panel 4 hindurchtritt und auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite von den Linsen konturiert bzw. geformt abgestrahlt wird.how figure 8 1 shows, a mirror and lens panel 4 can comprise both mirror facets 7 and lens facets 70, wherein said mirror facets 7 and lens facets 70 can be arranged in an alternating pattern. By using both mirror facets 7 and lens facets 70, part of the light radiated by the projection headlight 3 onto the panel 4 can be reflected back, as explained in the previous explanations, while another part of the light, namely that which impinges on the lens facets 70 Part of the light passes through the panel 4 and is emitted in a contoured or shaped manner on the opposite side of the lenses.

Durch ein solches Mischpanel 4 umfassend sowohl Spiegelfacetten 7 als auch Linsenfacetten 70 kann beispielsweise mit nur einem Projektionsscheinwerfer in der gewünschten Weise sowohl ein Bodenbereich in der gewünschten Weise ausgeleuchtet werden als auch ein Deckenbereich in der gewünschten Weise ausgeleuchtet werden, wobei die beiden Boden- und Deckenbereiche in unterschiedlicher Weise einerseits von den Spiegelfacetten 7 bzw. andererseits von den Linsenfacetten 70 beleuchtet und entsprechend gesteuert werden.With such a mixed panel 4 comprising both mirror facets 7 and lens facets 70, both a floor area can be illuminated in the desired way and a ceiling area can be illuminated in the desired way, for example with only one projection headlight, with the two floor and ceiling areas are illuminated in different ways on the one hand by the mirror facets 7 and on the other hand by the lens facets 70 and are correspondingly controlled.

Wie Figur 9 zeigt, kann ein solches Mischpanel 4 mit Spiegelfacetten 7 und Linsenfacetten 70 auch von beiden Seiten her durch jeweils zumindest einen Projektionsscheinwerfer 4 beleuchtet werden, sodass die erzielten Lichtmuster in einfacher Weise umschaltbar sind. Wird der untere Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 betrieben, entsteht die Lichtverteilung am Boden und Deckenbereich zuvor mit Figur 8 illustriert.how figure 9 shows, such a mixed panel 4 with mirror facets 7 and lens facets 70 can also be illuminated from both sides by at least one projection headlight 4, so that the light patterns achieved can be switched over in a simple manner. If the lower projection spotlight 3 is operated, the light distribution on the floor and ceiling area is created beforehand figure 8 illustrated.

Wird indes der obere Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 betrieben, drehen sich die Lichtverhältnisse sozusagen um, da dann der Deckenbereich durch das an den Spiegelfacetten 7 reflektierte Licht ausgeleuchtet wird, während der Bodenbereich von dem Lichtanteil beleuchtet wird, der durch die Linsenfacetten 70 hindurchtritt.However, if the upper projection headlight 3 is operated, the lighting conditions are reversed, so to speak, since the ceiling area is then illuminated by the light reflected from the mirror facets 7, while the floor area is illuminated by the light component that passes through the lens facets 70.

Eine weitere Variabilität lässt sich dadurch erzeugen, dass beide Projektionsscheinwerfer 3 beide Seiten des Spiegel- und Linsenpanels bestrahlen.A further variability can be generated in that both projection headlights 3 irradiate both sides of the mirror and lens panel.
