Description

  The present invention relates to an LED unit, an LED lighting device, and an LED lighting system.

  FIG. 27 shows an example of a conventional LED lighting device (see, for example, Patent Document 1). The LED illumination device X shown in the figure includes a long rectangular substrate 91, a plurality of LED modules 92 mounted on the substrate 91, a tube 93 that accommodates the substrate 91, a terminal 94, and the LED module 92. And a circuit 95 for lighting. The LED module 92 has a built-in LED chip (not shown) and emits, for example, white light. A wiring (not shown) connected to the plurality of LED modules 92 and the terminals 94 is formed on the substrate 91. This LED illumination device X is configured to allow a plurality of LED modules 92 to emit light by fitting a terminal 94 into an insertion port of a socket of a general fluorescent lamp luminaire. Since the LED module 92 has low power consumption and a long life, if the LED lighting device X is used as an alternative to a fluorescent lamp, improvements in cost and environment can be expected. The general-use fluorescent lamp luminaire is a luminaire widely used mainly for indoor general illumination. For example, in Japan, a commercial 100 V power source is used, and a straight-tube fluorescent lamp defined in JIS C7617 or A lighting fixture to which a ring-shaped fluorescent lamp defined in JIS C7618 is attached.

  However, there are various activities performed in indoor places such as living rooms, bedrooms, and conference rooms. Even in the same room, the brightness of natural light varies depending on the time and season. In particular, no illumination is required at night, and a sufficient amount of light is often required during the day. Furthermore, the so-called lunch white color is preferred in the room where work is performed, and the so-called light bulb color is preferred in the bedroom. Thus, even with indoor lighting, the required light quantity and hue vary depending on time and place. Therefore, the LED lighting device X that emits a single color with a constant light quantity cannot sufficiently meet the above-described demand.

  The wireless slave unit 7 is a wireless communication device having a physical layer according to, for example, IEEE 802.15.4 standard. As shown in FIG. 9, in this embodiment, the wireless slave unit 7 is configured such that components (not shown) such as electronic components and a board are built in a rectangular parallelepiped case. The support member 4 and the cover 5 are disposed at positions adjacent to each other in the x direction.

  FIG. 13 shows an example of an LED lighting system according to the present invention. The LED lighting system C of the present embodiment is configured by a plurality of LED lighting devices B1 and a wireless master unit 8. The wireless master unit 8 is a wireless communication device having a physical layer according to, for example, IEEE 802.15.4 standard, and is configured to be able to perform wireless communication with the wireless slave unit 7. The wireless master unit 8 can be connected to a personal computer PC as data input means. From the personal computer PC, for example, the brightness and color of the LED lighting device B1 in one year are distinguished and input for each date and time. The wireless master unit 8 stores the data in a built-in memory (not shown).

  From the wireless master device 8, a light emission amount instruction wireless signal is transmitted to each LED lighting device B1 based on the brightness and color of each date. When receiving the light emission amount instruction wireless signal, the wireless slave unit 7 of each LED lighting device B1 sends a light emission amount instruction signal to the power supply units 6A and 6B. The light emission amount instruction signal is, for example, a pulse waveform signal having a voltage of 5 V, and indicates the light emission time rate of each of the LED modules 3A and 3B that emit light by the power supply units 6A and 6B. Thereby, what is called PWM control is performed with respect to LED module 3A, 3B according to the said light emission amount instruction | indication radio signal.

  For example, when it is desired that a certain LED lighting device B1 emit white light, a light emission amount instruction signal for setting the light emission time rate of the LED module 3A to 100% is transmitted to the power supply unit 6A, and the light emission time rate of the LED module 3B is set to 0%. Is transmitted to the power supply unit 6B. On the other hand, when it is desired to cause a certain LED lighting device B1 to emit light bulb color, a light emission amount instruction signal for setting the light emission time rate of the LED module 3A to 0% is transmitted to the power supply unit 6A, and the light emission time rate of the LED module 3B is set to 100%. Is transmitted to the power supply unit 6B. By such PWM control, the hue of light emitted from the LED lighting device B1 (LED unit A1) can be freely adjusted between the neutral white color and the light bulb color. Moreover, the illumination intensity of LED lighting apparatus B1 (LED unit A1) can also be adjusted.

  In this embodiment, one wireless slave unit 7 is provided in one LED lighting device B1. This means that the plurality of LED units A1 provided in one LED lighting device B1 emit light with the same color and the same illuminance.

  Next, the operation of the LED unit A1, the LED illumination device B1, and the LED illumination system C will be described.

  According to the present embodiment, by controlling the LED modules 3A and 3B according to the light emission time rate, the hue of light emitted from the LED unit A1 and the LED lighting device B1 can be arbitrarily set between a neutral white color and a light bulb color. Is possible. Similarly, the brightness of the LED unit A1 and the LED lighting device B1 can be arbitrarily set between 0 and the maximum light amount. Accordingly, it is possible to illuminate the interior with light having a hue and luminance required depending on the installation location and the date and time.

  Since the daytime white LED module 3A and the light bulb color LED module 3B are alternately arranged in the x direction, it is possible to promote the color mixture of the light emitted from the LED modules 3A and 3B. Thereby, it can suppress that the person who sees LED unit A1 (LED illuminating device B1) recognizes separately the part which shines with the color of a light bulb color, and the light part with the hue of daytime white, and covers 5 It is possible to realize an appearance that emits light uniformly through.

  By attaching the substrate 2 to the support member 4 made of aluminum having a relatively high thermal conductivity, heat from the LED modules 3A and 3B can be satisfactorily transmitted to the support member 4 through the substrate 2. It is. Since the support member 4 has a U-shaped cross section, its surface area is relatively large. This is advantageous for increasing the heat radiation efficiency. By improving the heat dissipation efficiency, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the LED modules 3A and 3B.

  Although the LED unit A1 has a simple and slender shape as a whole, it includes LED modules 3A and 3B as light sources, power supply units 6A and 6B as power supply means, and the like. For this reason, it is possible to mount LED unit A1 with respect to the support cover 1 with comparatively various postures, such as upward, downward, two rows, and one row. Thereby, LED lighting apparatus B1 can illuminate the ceiling W and the top | upper surface of the office desk D, Moreover, it does not become a complicated shape as a whole, but has shown the clean external appearance.

  The LED lighting system C combining the plurality of LED lighting devices B1 and the wireless master unit 8 can arbitrarily adjust the color and brightness of each LED lighting device B1 by transmitting and receiving a light emission amount instruction wireless signal. According to such a configuration, for example, there are advantages in that there is no troublesome wiring, and there are few restrictions on the installation location of the LED lighting device B1 as compared with a lighting system using a wire.

  The wireless base unit 8 stores the hue and brightness corresponding to the date and time throughout the year, and transmits the light emission amount instruction wireless signal corresponding to this, thereby setting the hue and brightness of the plurality of LED lighting devices B1 to the room and the brightness. It can be set to the one that suits the season and time.

  By arranging the wireless slave unit 7 on the outside of the support member 4, it is possible to prevent the light emission amount instruction radio signal from being unduly shielded, and to be appropriately received by the wireless slave unit 7. If the wireless slave unit 7 is arranged so as to be adjacent to the support member 4 in the x direction, the LED illumination device B1 can be prevented from becoming large in diameter.
