Description

本発明は、家庭用、産業用、車載用に使用される照明装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a lighting device used for home use, industrial use, and in-vehicle use.

従来より、静電容量の変化を検出して光源を点灯させる照明装置として特許文献1に開示のものが知られている。この照明装置は、人体の接近を検知する電極と、この電極の静電容量の変化を検出する静電容量式センサと、静電容量式センサからの所定の時間幅を有する出力に応動して光源の点灯又は消灯制御を行う制御回路とを備えたものである。   Conventionally, a device disclosed in Patent Document 1 is known as an illumination device that detects a change in capacitance and turns on a light source. This illumination device is responsive to an output having a predetermined time width from an electrode that detects the approach of a human body, a capacitance sensor that detects a change in capacitance of the electrode, and the capacitance sensor. And a control circuit that controls turning on or off the light source.

この照明装置によれば、点灯又は消灯の意志を持った操作者の手の動きのみに反応し、それ以外のものの動きには反応しない照明装置を提供することができる。
特開平8−64364号公報、段落0008,0016,図1
According to this illuminating device, it is possible to provide an illuminating device that reacts only to the movement of the hand of the operator who intends to turn on or off, and does not react to the movement of other things.
JP-A-8-64364, paragraphs 0008, 0016, FIG.

しかしながら、上述した従来の照明装置では、静電容量検知を行うセンサ部分と、光源とが別体となっているので、全体的な小型化を図ることができない。また、検知電極が目立つため、意匠的な観点から検知電極が目立つのを極力控えたい場合には利用できないという問題がある。   However, in the above-described conventional illumination device, the sensor portion for detecting the capacitance and the light source are separate, and thus the overall size cannot be reduced. Further, since the detection electrode is conspicuous, there is a problem that it cannot be used when it is desired to suppress the detection electrode from being conspicuous as much as possible from a design viewpoint.

本発明は、このような点に鑑みてなされたもので、小型化を図ることができ、検知電極を目立たなくすることができる照明装置を提供することを目的とする。   This invention is made | formed in view of such a point, and it aims at providing the illuminating device which can achieve size reduction and can make a detection electrode inconspicuous.

本発明に係る照明装置は、照光面を有する照光手段と、この照光手段の前記照光面に対応する位置に配置された検知電極と、この検知電極と接地との間の静電容量を検出してこれに対応した検出値を出力する静電容量検知回路と、この静電容量検知回路から出力される検出値が所定のしきい値を超えたときに前記照光手段を点灯又は消灯させる制御回路とを有することを特徴とする。   An illuminating device according to the present invention detects an electrostatic capacity between an illuminating unit having an illuminating surface, a detecting electrode disposed at a position corresponding to the illuminating surface of the illuminating unit, and the detecting electrode and ground. And a control circuit for turning on or off the illumination means when the detection value output from the capacitance detection circuit exceeds a predetermined threshold value. It is characterized by having.

本発明によれば、検知電極が、照光手段の前記照光面に対応する位置に配置されているので、照光手段に人体を近づければ、静電容量検知回路がこの人体の接近を検出して、照光手段を点灯又は消灯制御させることができる。このように、本発明は検知電極と照光手段とが一体となっているので、装置全体の小型化が可能で、検知電極を照光手段で覆うことができるので、検知電極が目立つこともなく、意匠的な不具合も解消される。   According to the present invention, since the detection electrode is disposed at a position corresponding to the illumination surface of the illumination means, if the human body is brought close to the illumination means, the capacitance detection circuit detects the approach of the human body. The illumination means can be controlled to be turned on or off. Thus, since the detection electrode and the illuminating means are integrated in the present invention, the entire apparatus can be downsized and the detection electrode can be covered with the illuminating means, so that the detection electrode is not noticeable, Design defects are also eliminated.

以下、添付の図面を参照して、本発明の実施の形態を説明する。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

図1は、本発明の第1の実施形態に係る照明装置の構成を示す概略的な分解斜視図である。   FIG. 1 is a schematic exploded perspective view showing a configuration of a lighting apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

この照明装置は、一方の面を照光面1aとする導光部材としてのガラス、プラスチック等からなる導光板1と、この導光板1の照光面1aとは反対側の面に添設され、矩形状の開口部2aを有する矩形状の検知電極2と、この検知電極2の開口部2aを通して導光板1に光を供給するLED等の光源3とを備えて構成されている。ここで、導光板1と光源3とは、照光手段を構成している。   This illuminating device is attached to a light guide plate 1 made of glass, plastic or the like as a light guide member having one surface as an illumination surface 1a, and a surface opposite to the illumination surface 1a of the light guide plate 1. A rectangular detection electrode 2 having a shape opening 2 a and a light source 3 such as an LED that supplies light to the light guide plate 1 through the opening 2 a of the detection electrode 2 are configured. Here, the light guide plate 1 and the light source 3 constitute illumination means.

図2は、この照明装置の回路構成を示す回路図である。   FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram showing a circuit configuration of the illumination device.

検知電極2は、静電容量検知回路11に接続されている。静電容量検知回路11は、検知電極2と接地との間の静電容量に応じた検出値を出力する。この検知回路11は、例えば発振回路を内蔵し、検知電極2によって生成される静電容量Cxに応じて発振周波数又はデューティー比が変化する信号を生成するものである。この検知回路11から出力される検出値は、判定回路12に入力されている。判定回路12は、コンパレータ121を備えて構成されている。コンパレータ121は、一方の入力端に静電容量検知回路11からの検出値を入力し、他方の入力端に、判定電圧生成回路122で生成された第1判定電圧を入力し、検出値が第1判定電圧を超えたときに第1検知信号を出力する。この第1検知信号は、照明点灯制御回路13に入力される。照明点灯制御回路13は、判定回路12からの出力が一定期間連続してON状態であるときに、出力状態(ON/OFF状態)を反転させる。光源駆動回路14は、照明点灯制御回路13の出力がON状態となっているときに光源3を駆動する。   The detection electrode 2 is connected to the capacitance detection circuit 11. The capacitance detection circuit 11 outputs a detection value corresponding to the capacitance between the detection electrode 2 and the ground. The detection circuit 11 includes an oscillation circuit, for example, and generates a signal whose oscillation frequency or duty ratio changes according to the capacitance Cx generated by the detection electrode 2. The detection value output from the detection circuit 11 is input to the determination circuit 12. The determination circuit 12 includes a comparator 121. The comparator 121 inputs the detection value from the capacitance detection circuit 11 to one input terminal, and inputs the first determination voltage generated by the determination voltage generation circuit 122 to the other input terminal. A first detection signal is output when the determination voltage exceeds one. This first detection signal is input to the illumination lighting control circuit 13. The illumination lighting control circuit 13 reverses the output state (ON / OFF state) when the output from the determination circuit 12 is continuously ON for a certain period. The light source drive circuit 14 drives the light source 3 when the output of the illumination lighting control circuit 13 is ON.

次に、このように構成された本実施形態に係る照明装置の動作について説明する。   Next, operation | movement of the illuminating device based on this embodiment comprised in this way is demonstrated.

消灯状態において、検知電極2に人体、例えば指が接近(例えば導光板1に接触)すると、検知電極2の人体を介した対接地容量が変化し、この結果、静電容量検知回路11から出力される検出値が増加する。照明点灯制御回路13は、静電容量検知回路11からの検出値が第1判定電圧を超えたことを判定回路12が所定時間(1〜2秒)継続して検出していたら、出力をOFF状態からON状態に反転させ、光駆動回路14を駆動して光源3を点灯させる。また、点灯状態において、検知電極2に人体が接近(例えば導光板1に接触)すると、検知電極2の対接地容量が変化する。静電容量検知回路11からの検出値が第1判定電圧を所定時間超えると、照明点灯制御回路13の出力がON状態からOFF状態に反転し、光源3がOFF状態となる。   When a human body, such as a finger, approaches the detection electrode 2 in the light-off state (for example, touches the light guide plate 1), the grounding capacitance of the detection electrode 2 through the human body changes, and as a result, output from the capacitance detection circuit 11 The detected value increases. The illumination lighting control circuit 13 turns off the output when the determination circuit 12 continuously detects that the detection value from the capacitance detection circuit 11 exceeds the first determination voltage for a predetermined time (1 to 2 seconds). The light source 3 is turned on by driving the light driving circuit 14 by inverting the state to the ON state. Further, when the human body approaches the detection electrode 2 in the lighting state (for example, contacts the light guide plate 1), the ground capacitance of the detection electrode 2 changes. When the detection value from the capacitance detection circuit 11 exceeds the first determination voltage for a predetermined time, the output of the illumination lighting control circuit 13 is reversed from the ON state to the OFF state, and the light source 3 is turned OFF.

本実施形態の照明装置によれば、照光面1aを有する導光板1の裏面に検知電極2が配置されているので、装置全体を小型化することができる。また、点灯又は消灯のためのスイッチの位置は、照光面1aそれ自体である。つまり点灯する部分に直接接触することにより、点灯又は消灯操作を行うことができるので、スイッチ位置は極めて明確であり、操作性が向上する。   According to the illuminating device of this embodiment, since the detection electrode 2 is arrange | positioned at the back surface of the light-guide plate 1 which has the illumination surface 1a, the whole apparatus can be reduced in size. The position of the switch for turning on or off is the illumination surface 1a itself. That is, since the lighting or extinguishing operation can be performed by directly contacting the portion to be lit, the switch position is very clear and the operability is improved.

図3は、本発明の他の実施形態に係る照明装置の概略的な斜視図である。   FIG. 3 is a schematic perspective view of a lighting device according to another embodiment of the present invention.

この実施形態では、導光板1の照光面1aに検知電極2′を配置している。この場合、検知電極2′は、導光板1の照光面1aを覆うため、透明電極により構成されている。   In this embodiment, the detection electrode 2 ′ is disposed on the illumination surface 1 a of the light guide plate 1. In this case, the detection electrode 2 ′ is composed of a transparent electrode to cover the illumination surface 1 a of the light guide plate 1.

このような構成によれば、検知電極2′が導光板1の裏側ではなく、操作側に配置されるので、人体との近接距離を更に縮めることができ、検出感度をより向上させることができる。   According to such a configuration, the detection electrode 2 ′ is arranged not on the back side of the light guide plate 1 but on the operation side, so that the proximity distance to the human body can be further reduced, and the detection sensitivity can be further improved. .

図4は、本発明の更に他の実施形態に係る照明装置の電気的な構成を示すブロック図である。   FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing an electrical configuration of a lighting apparatus according to still another embodiment of the present invention.

この実施形態では、判定回路12′が複数のコンパレータ121,121,…,121と複数の判定電圧生成回路122,122,…,122とより構成されている。判定電圧生成回路122〜122からは、それぞれ電圧値の異なる第1〜第Nの判定電圧が出力されている。照明点灯制御回路13は、判定回路12の出力パターンから光源駆動回路14による光源3の駆動パターンを変える。これにより、人体の接近の程度により、光源3の輝度を細かく設定することが可能になる。 In this embodiment, the determination circuit 12 'is a plurality of comparators 121 1, 121 2, ..., 121 N and a plurality of decision voltage generating circuit 122 1, 122 2, ..., are more configuration and 122 N. First to Nth determination voltages having different voltage values are output from the determination voltage generation circuits 122 1 to 122 N , respectively. The illumination lighting control circuit 13 changes the drive pattern of the light source 3 by the light source drive circuit 14 from the output pattern of the determination circuit 12. Thereby, it becomes possible to set the brightness | luminance of the light source 3 finely according to the degree of approach of a human body.
