Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress reduction in illuminance in a case where abnormalities occur in some LED light sources.SOLUTION: A first control circuit 10 stops a first converter 1 by stopping switching of a switching element 11 in a case where a first abnormality detection signal is inputted. A second control circuit 20 stops a second converter 2 by stopping switching of a switching element 21 in a case where a second abnormality detection signal is inputted. Further, the first control circuit 10 increases a power supply amount from the first converter 1 to a first LED light source B1 by increasing a peak value higher than that at a normal time in a case where no first abnormality detection signal is inputted and the second abnormality detection signal is inputted. As a result, because the quantity of light of the first LED light source B1 increases, reduction in illuminance in a case where the second LED light source B2 is extinguished can be suppressed.

Description

本発明は、LED駆動装置及び照明器具に関する。   The present invention relates to an LED driving device and a lighting fixture.

従来例として、特許文献1記載のLED点灯装置を例示する。特許文献1記載の従来例は、DC/DCコンバータと、切替制御部と、PWM(Pulse Width Modulation)コントローラと、異常検出部とを備える。切替制御部は、2つのLED光源とDC/DCコンバータの出力端との接続を択一的に切替制御する。PWMコントローラは、切替制御部によってDC/DCコンバータの出力端に接続されるLED光源に合わせて、DC/DCコンバータの出力を増減する。異常検出部は、2つのLED光源の異常(短絡や無負荷など)を各別に検出し、異常を検出した方のLED光源への給電を停止する。   As a conventional example, an LED lighting device described in Patent Document 1 is illustrated. The conventional example described in Patent Document 1 includes a DC / DC converter, a switching control unit, a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controller, and an abnormality detection unit.

The abnormality detection unit detects an abnormality (such as a short circuit or no load) of the two LED light sources, and stops power supply to the LED light source that has detected the abnormality.

特許文献1記載の従来例では、異常が生じたLED光源への給電を停止して消灯させることにより、当該LED光源に異常が生じていることを認識し易くしている。   In the conventional example described in Patent Document 1, it is easy to recognize that an abnormality has occurred in the LED light source by stopping power supply to the LED light source in which an abnormality has occurred and turning it off.

ところで、特許文献1記載の従来例のように、複数のLED光源を駆動するLED駆動装置において、何れかのLED光源に異常が生じたときに当該LED光源の駆動を停止(消灯)するだけでは不都合が生じる場合が有る。例えば、LED光源が道路照明やトンネル照明の光源に用いられる場合、複数のLED光源の一部が消灯することで必要最低限の照度が確保され難くなってしまう虞がある。   By the way, in the LED driving device that drives a plurality of LED light sources as in the conventional example described in Patent Document 1, when an abnormality occurs in any of the LED light sources, the driving of the LED light source is simply stopped (turned off).

以下、本発明に係るLED駆動装置の実施形態について、図面を参照して詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of an LED driving device according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1は、図1に示すように2つのDC/DCコンバータ1,2、異常検出回路3、力率改善(Power Factor Correction)回路4、全波整流器5、調光回路部6などを備える。   As shown in FIG. 1, the LED driving device A1 of this embodiment includes two DC / DC converters 1 and 2, an abnormality detection circuit 3, a power factor correction circuit 4, a full-wave rectifier 5, and a dimming circuit. And so on.

力率改善回路4は、電界効果トランジスタからなるスイッチング素子41、スイッチング素子41をスイッチング制御するPFC制御回路40、チョークコイル42、ダイオード43、平滑コンデンサ44などで構成される従来周知の昇圧チョッパ回路で構成される。ただし、このような力率改善回路(昇圧チョッパ回路)4の動作は従来周知であるから、詳細な説明を省略する。   The power factor correction circuit 4 is a conventionally known step-up chopper circuit composed of a switching element 41 composed of a field effect transistor, a PFC control circuit 40 that controls the switching of the switching element 41, a choke coil 42, a diode 43, a smoothing capacitor 44, and the like. Composed. However, since the operation of such a power factor correction circuit (boost chopper circuit) 4 is well known in the art, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

力率改善回路4の出力端に2つのDC/DCコンバータ1,2が並列に接続されている。一方のDC/DCコンバータ(以下、第1コンバータと呼ぶ。)1は、従来周知の降圧チョッパ回路であり、スイッチング素子11、第1制御回路10、インダクタ12、ダイオード13、平滑コンデンサ14、検出巻線15、ダイオード16などで構成される。ダイオード13のカソードが力率改善回路4の高電位側の出力端に接続され、ダイオード13のアノードがスイッチング素子11のドレインに接続される。スイッチング素子11のソースが、グランドに接地された力率改善回路4の低電位側の出力端に接続される。インダクタ12の一端がダイオード13のアノードに接続され、インダクタ12の他端が平滑コンデンサ14の低電位側に接続される。平滑コンデンサ14の高電位側がダイオード13のカソードに接続される。そして、平滑コンデンサ14の両端にLED光源(以下、第1LED光源と呼ぶ。)B1が接続される。また、検出巻線15は、インダクタ12に磁気結合され、一端がグランドに接続されるとともに、他端がダイオード16のアノードに接続される。そして、ダイオード16のカソードが異常検出回路3に接続される。   Two DC / DC converters 1 and 2 are connected in parallel to the output terminal of the power factor correction circuit 4. One DC / DC converter (hereinafter referred to as a first converter) 1 is a conventionally known step-down chopper circuit, which is a switching element 11, a first control circuit 10, an inductor 12, a diode 13, a smoothing capacitor 14, a detection winding. It consists of a line 15, a diode 16, and the like. The cathode of the diode 13 is connected to the output terminal on the high potential side of the power factor correction circuit 4, and the anode of the diode 13 is connected to the drain of the switching element 11. The source of the switching element 11 is connected to the output terminal on the low potential side of the power factor correction circuit 4 grounded to the ground. One end of the inductor 12 is connected to the anode of the diode 13, and the other end of the inductor 12 is connected to the low potential side of the smoothing capacitor 14. The high potential side of the smoothing capacitor 14 is connected to the cathode of the diode 13. An LED light source (hereinafter referred to as a first LED light source) B1 is connected to both ends of the smoothing capacitor. Further, the detection winding 15 is magnetically coupled to the inductor 12, one end is connected to the ground, and the other end is connected to the anode of the diode 16. The cathode of the diode 16 is connected to the abnormality detection circuit 3.

他方のDC/DCコンバータ(以下、第2コンバータと呼ぶ。)2も従来周知の降圧チョッパ回路であり、スイッチング素子21、第2制御回路20、インダクタ22、ダイオード23、平滑コンデンサ24、検出巻線25、ダイオード26などで構成される。ダイオード23のカソードが力率改善回路4の高電位側の出力端に接続され、ダイオード23のアノードがスイッチング素子21のドレインに接続される。スイッチング素子21のソースが、グランドに接続される。インダクタ22の一端がダイオード23のアノードに接続され、インダクタ22の他端が平滑コンデンサ24の低電位側に接続される。平滑コンデンサ24の高電位側がダイオード23のカソードに接続される。そして、平滑コンデンサ24の両端にLED光源(以下、第2LED光源と呼ぶ。)B2が接続される。また、検出巻線25は、インダクタ22に磁気結合され、一端がグランドに接続されるとともに、他端がダイオード26のアノードに接続される。そして、ダイオード26のカソードが異常検出回路3に接続される。   The other DC / DC converter (hereinafter referred to as a second converter) 2 is also a conventionally known step-down chopper circuit, which is a switching element 21, a second control circuit 20, an inductor 22, a diode 23, a smoothing capacitor 24, and a detection winding. 25, diode 26, and the like. The cathode of the diode 23 is connected to the output terminal on the high potential side of the power factor correction circuit 4, and the anode of the diode 23 is connected to the drain of the switching element 21. The source of the switching element 21 is connected to the ground. One end of the inductor 22 is connected to the anode of the diode 23, and the other end of the inductor 22 is connected to the low potential side of the smoothing capacitor 24. The high potential side of the smoothing capacitor 24 is connected to the cathode of the diode 23. An LED light source (hereinafter referred to as a second LED light source) B2 is connected to both ends of the smoothing capacitor 24. The detection winding 25 is magnetically coupled to the inductor 22 and has one end connected to the ground and the other end connected to the anode of the diode 26. The cathode of the diode 26 is connected to the abnormality detection circuit 3.

第1制御回路10は、スイッチング素子11をオンした後、インダクタ12を介してスイッチング素子11に流れる電流(インダクタ電流)が所定のピーク値に達したらスイッチング素子11をオフする。スイッチング素子11がオフすると、インダクタ12に蓄積された磁気エネルギーが放出され、ダイオード13を介して平滑コンデンサ14に充電される。そして、インダクタ12から平滑コンデンサ14に流れる回生電流がゼロになると、第1制御回路10は、再びスイッチング素子10をオンする。このようにして第1制御回路10がスイッチング素子10をスイッチング制御することにより、力率改善回路4から入力される直流電圧を、第1LED光源B1に必要とされる直流電圧に降圧することができる。   After turning on the switching element 11, the first control circuit 10 turns off the switching element 11 when the current (inductor current) flowing through the switching element 11 via the inductor 12 reaches a predetermined peak value. When the switching element 11 is turned off, the magnetic energy accumulated in the inductor 12 is released, and the smoothing capacitor 14 is charged via the diode 13. When the regenerative current flowing from the inductor 12 to the smoothing capacitor 14 becomes zero, the first control circuit 10 turns on the switching element 10 again. In this way, the first control circuit 10 performs switching control of the switching element 10, whereby the DC voltage input from the power factor correction circuit 4 can be stepped down to the DC voltage required for the first LED light source B1. .

同様に、第2制御回路20は、スイッチング素子21をオンした後、インダクタ22を介してスイッチング素子21に流れる電流(インダクタ電流)が所定のピーク値に達したらスイッチング素子21をオフする。スイッチング素子21がオフすると、インダクタ22に蓄積された磁気エネルギーが放出され、ダイオード23を介して平滑コンデンサ24に充電される。そして、インダクタ22から平滑コンデンサ24に流れる回生電流がゼロになると、第2制御回路20は、再びスイッチング素子20をオンする。このようにして第2制御回路20がスイッチング素子20をスイッチング制御することにより、力率改善回路4から入力される直流電圧を、第2LED光源B2に必要とされる直流電圧に降圧することができる。   Similarly, after the switching element 21 is turned on, the second control circuit 20 turns off the switching element 21 when a current (inductor current) flowing through the switching element 21 via the inductor 22 reaches a predetermined peak value. When the switching element 21 is turned off, the magnetic energy stored in the inductor 22 is released, and the smoothing capacitor 24 is charged via the diode 23. When the regenerative current flowing from the inductor 22 to the smoothing capacitor 24 becomes zero, the second control circuit 20 turns on the switching element 20 again. In this way, the second control circuit 20 performs switching control of the switching element 20, whereby the DC voltage input from the power factor correction circuit 4 can be stepped down to the DC voltage required for the second LED light source B2. .

ただし、上述した第1及び第2制御回路10,20の制御動作は臨界モードと呼ばれるものであるが、これに限定する趣旨では無い。すなわち、第1及び第2制御回路10,20は、回生電流がゼロよりも高い下限値に達した時点でスイッチング素子11,21をオンしたり(連続モード)、あるいは、回生電流がゼロになった後にスイッチング素子11,21をオンしても構わない(不連続モード)。   However, the control operation of the first and second control circuits 10 and 20 described above is called a critical mode, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the first and second control circuits 10 and 20 turn on the switching elements 11 and 21 when the regenerative current reaches a lower limit value higher than zero (continuous mode), or the regenerative current becomes zero. After that, the switching elements 11 and 21 may be turned on (discontinuous mode).

調光回路部6は、外部から入力される調光信号から調光レベルを読み取り、読み取った調光レベルを第1制御回路10と第2制御回路20に与える。第1制御回路10及び第2制御回路20は、調光回路部6から与えられる調光レベルに応じて、インダクタ電流と比較するピーク値を変化させる。そして、ピーク値が変化することにより、第1LED光源B1及び第2LED光源B2への給電量を増減して第1LED光源B1と第2LED光源B2の光出力を調整(調光)する。ただし、調光回路部6の調光方法としては、第1及び第2コンバータ1,2からLED光源B1,B2へ電流を供給する期間と停止する期間との比率を変えることにより調光レベルを変化させる、所謂バースト調光を用いても良い。更には、上述の2つの調光方法が組合されたものでも良い。   The dimming circuit unit 6 reads the dimming level from the dimming signal input from the outside, and gives the read dimming level to the first control circuit 10 and the second control circuit 20. The first control circuit 10 and the second control circuit 20 change the peak value to be compared with the inductor current in accordance with the dimming level given from the dimming circuit unit 6. Then, when the peak value changes, the amount of power supplied to the first LED light source B1 and the second LED light source B2 is increased or decreased to adjust (dimming) the light outputs of the first LED light source B1 and the second LED light source B2. However, the dimming method of the dimming circuit unit 6 is to adjust the dimming level by changing the ratio between the period during which current is supplied from the first and second converters 1, 2 to the LED light sources B1, B2, and the period during which current is stopped. You may use what is called burst dimming. Furthermore, the above-mentioned two light control methods may be combined.

異常検出回路3は、例えば、コンパレータやマイクロコンピュータで構成される。そして、異常検出回路3は、検出巻線15,25に生じる検出電圧に基づいて第1LED光源B1及び第2LED光源B2の異常(短絡又は無負荷)を検出し、異常を検出した方のLED光源B1,B2に対応する制御回路10,20に異常検出信号を出力する。   The abnormality detection circuit 3 is composed of, for example, a comparator or a microcomputer. Then, the abnormality detection circuit 3 detects the abnormality (short circuit or no load) of the first LED light source B1 and the second LED light source B2 based on the detection voltage generated in the detection windings 15 and 25, and the LED light source that has detected the abnormality. An abnormality detection signal is output to the control circuits 10 and 20 corresponding to B1 and B2.

異常検出回路3の具体回路例を図2に示す。なお、図2では、第1コンバータ1の検出巻線15に生じる検出電圧(第1検出電圧)に対応した回路構成のみを図示しており、第2コンバータ2の検出巻線25に生じる検出電圧(第2検出電圧)に対応した回路構成(マイコン30を除く。)については図示を省略している。ただし、第2検出電圧に対応した回路構成は、図2に図示した第1検出電圧に対応した回路構成と共通である。   A specific circuit example of the abnormality detection circuit 3 is shown in FIG. FIG. 2 shows only the circuit configuration corresponding to the detection voltage (first detection voltage) generated in the detection winding 15 of the first converter 1, and the detection voltage generated in the detection winding 25 of the second converter 2. The circuit configuration (excluding the microcomputer 30) corresponding to (second detection voltage) is not shown. However, the circuit configuration corresponding to the second detection voltage is the same as the circuit configuration corresponding to the first detection voltage illustrated in FIG.

検出電圧(第1検出電圧と第2検出電圧)は、スイッチング素子11,21のオン期間にゼロ、スイッチング素子11,21のオフ期間にハイレベルとなる矩形波の電圧信号であって、ハイレベル時の電圧がコンバータ1,2の出力電圧と相関関係にある。したがって、LED光源B1,B2に短絡故障が発生した場合、コンバータ1,2の出力電圧がほぼゼロとなるので、検出電圧もゼロに近い電圧になる。一方、LED光源B1,B2とDC/DCコンバータ1,2との接続が不完全になったり、あるいはLED光源B1,B2内の配線が断線することで無負荷状態となった場合、コンバータ1,2の出力電圧が入力電圧(力率改善回路4の出力電圧)にほぼ等しくなる。そのため、検出電圧が正常時の電圧よりも高くなる。   The detection voltage (the first detection voltage and the second detection voltage) is a rectangular wave voltage signal that is zero during the ON period of the switching elements 11 and 21 and is high during the OFF period of the switching elements 11 and 21. The voltage of the hour is correlated with the output voltage of the converters 1 and 2. Therefore, when a short circuit failure occurs in the LED light sources B1 and B2, the output voltage of the converters 1 and 2 is almost zero, so the detection voltage is also close to zero. On the other hand, if the connection between the LED light sources B1 and B2 and the DC / DC converters 1 and 2 is incomplete, or the wiring in the LED light sources B1 and B2 is disconnected, the converter 1 The output voltage of 2 is substantially equal to the input voltage (the output voltage of the power factor correction circuit 4). Therefore, the detection voltage is higher than the normal voltage.

異常検出回路3では、抵抗R1とコンデンサC1からなるローパスフィルタで第1検出電圧に含まれる高周波成分を除去した後、分圧抵抗R2,R3によって第1検出電圧を分圧する。分圧された第1検出電圧でコンデンサC2が充電され、コンデンサC2の両端電圧がマイコン30の入力ポートに入力される。マイコン30は、入力ポートに入力される第1検出電圧(分圧された第1検出電圧)をA/D変換して大小2つのしきい値と比較する。   In the abnormality detection circuit 3, a high-frequency component included in the first detection voltage is removed by a low-pass filter including a resistor R1 and a capacitor C1, and then the first detection voltage is divided by the voltage dividing resistors R2 and R3. The capacitor C2 is charged with the divided first detection voltage, and the voltage across the capacitor C2 is input to the input port of the microcomputer 30. The microcomputer 30 performs A / D conversion on the first detection voltage (divided first detection voltage) input to the input port and compares it with two threshold values.

そして、第1検出電圧をA/D変換した値が小さい方のしきい値を下回るか、あるいは大きい方のしきい値を上回れば、マイコン30が、第1LED光源B1に異常が発生したことを示す第1異常検出信号を第1及び第2制御回路10,20にそれぞれ出力する。なお、小さい方のしきい値は、正常時の第1検出電圧よりも十分に小さく且つゼロよりも大きい値に設定される。また、大きい方のしきい値は、正常時の第1検出電圧よりも十分に大きく且つ第1及び第2コンバータ1,2の出力電圧が入力電圧と等しくなったと仮定した時の第1及び第2検出電圧よりも小さい値に設定される。同様に、異常検出回路3は、別の入力ポートに入力される第2検出電圧をA/D変換した値を大小2つのしきい値と比較する。そして、第2検出電圧をA/D変換した値が小さい方のしきい値を下回るか若しくは大きい方のしきい値を上回れば、マイコン30が、第2LED光源B2に異常が発生したことを示す第2異常検出信号を第1及び第2制御回路10,20にそれぞれ出力する。   If the value obtained by A / D converting the first detection voltage falls below the lower threshold value or exceeds the larger threshold value, the microcomputer 30 indicates that an abnormality has occurred in the first LED light source B1. The first abnormality detection signal shown is output to the first and second control circuits 10 and 20, respectively. Note that the smaller threshold value is set to a value sufficiently smaller than the normal first detection voltage and larger than zero. The larger threshold value is sufficiently larger than the first detection voltage in the normal state, and the first and second values when the output voltages of the first and second converters 1 and 2 are equal to the input voltage are assumed. 2 is set to a value smaller than the detection voltage. Similarly, the abnormality detection circuit 3 compares the value obtained by A / D converting the second detection voltage input to another input port with two threshold values. If the value obtained by A / D converting the second detection voltage is below the lower threshold value or exceeds the larger threshold value, the microcomputer 30 indicates that an abnormality has occurred in the second LED light source B2. The second abnormality detection signal is output to the first and second control circuits 10 and 20, respectively.

第1制御回路10は、第1異常検出信号が入力された場合、スイッチング素子11のスイッチングを止めることで第1コンバータ1を停止する。第2制御回路20は、第2異常検出信号が入力された場合、スイッチング素子21のスイッチングを止めることで第2コンバータ2を停止する。その結果、異常(短絡又は無負荷)が発生したLED光源B1,B2への給電を停止し、コンバータ1,2の保護や出力電圧の異常上昇の抑制を個別に図ることができる。   When the first abnormality detection signal is input, the first control circuit 10 stops the first converter 1 by stopping the switching of the switching element 11. When the second abnormality detection signal is input, the second control circuit 20 stops the second converter 2 by stopping the switching of the switching element 21. As a result, power supply to the LED light sources B1 and B2 in which an abnormality (short circuit or no load) has occurred can be stopped, and the converters 1 and 2 can be protected and the abnormal increase in output voltage can be individually controlled.

さらに、第1制御回路10は、第1異常検出信号が入力されず且つ第2異常検出信号が入力された場合、スイッチング素子11,21をオフする所定のピーク値を正常時よりも高くすることで第1コンバータ1から第1LED光源B1への給電量を増やす。その結果、第1LED光源B1の光量が増加するので、第2LED光源B2が消灯した場合における照度低下を抑制することができる。   Further, when the first abnormality detection signal is not input and the second abnormality detection signal is input, the first control circuit 10 increases the predetermined peak value for turning off the switching elements 11 and 21 higher than normal. Thus, the amount of power supplied from the first converter 1 to the first LED light source B1 is increased. As a result, the amount of light of the first LED light source B1 increases, so that it is possible to suppress a decrease in illuminance when the second LED light source B2 is turned off.

同じく、第2制御回路20は、第2異常検出信号が入力されず且つ第1異常検出信号が入力された場合、ピーク値を正常時よりも高くすることで第2コンバータ2から第2LED光源B2への給電量を増やす。その結果、第2LED光源B2の光量が増加するので、第1LED光源B1が消灯した場合における照度低下を抑制することができる。   Similarly, when the second abnormality detection signal is not input and the first abnormality detection signal is input, the second control circuit 20 increases the peak value from the second converter 2 to the second LED light source B2 by increasing the peak value. Increase the amount of power supplied to. As a result, the amount of light of the second LED light source B2 increases, so that it is possible to suppress a decrease in illuminance when the first LED light source B1 is turned off.

上述のように本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1は、入力電力を所望の直流電力に変換し、変換した前記直流電力を給電することで複数のLED光源B1,B2を駆動するLED駆動装置である。そして、本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1は、LED光源B1,B2の異常を検出する異常検出手段(異常検出回路3)と、複数のLED光源B1,B2に給電される直流電力を各別に調整する調整手段(第1コンバータ1及び第2コンバータ2)とを備える。さらに、本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1は、制御手段(第1制御回路10及び第2制御回路20)を備える。第1制御回路10及び第2制御回路20は、複数のLED光源B1,B2の中で異常検出手段3が異常を検出したLED光源B1,B2への給電を停止するとともに、異常検出手段3が異常を検出していないLED光源B1,B2への給電量を増やすように調整手段1,2を制御する。   As described above, the LED drive device A1 of the present embodiment is an LED drive device that drives a plurality of LED light sources B1 and B2 by converting input power into desired DC power and feeding the converted DC power. . The LED driving device A1 of this embodiment adjusts the abnormality detection means (abnormality detection circuit 3) for detecting abnormality of the LED light sources B1 and B2 and the DC power supplied to the plurality of LED light sources B1 and B2 separately. Adjusting means (first converter 1 and second converter 2). Further, the LED drive device A1 of the present embodiment includes control means (first control circuit 10 and second control circuit 20). The first control circuit 10 and the second control circuit 20 stop the power supply to the LED light sources B1 and B2 detected by the abnormality detection means 3 among the plurality of LED light sources B1 and B2, and the abnormality detection means 3 The adjusting means 1 and 2 are controlled so as to increase the amount of power supplied to the LED light sources B1 and B2 in which no abnormality is detected.

したがって、第1制御回路10及び第2制御回路20が、複数のLED光源B1,B2の中で異常検出手段3が異常を検出していないLED光源B1,B2への給電量を増やすように調整手段1,2を制御するので、異常発生時の照度低下を抑制することができる。ただし、第1制御回路10及び第2制御回路20は、第1異常検出信号及び第2異常検出信号が入力されなくなれば、停止していたスイッチング素子11,21のスイッチングを再開し、且つピーク値を元の値(異常検出信号が入力される前の値)に戻すことが好ましい。これにより、LED光源B1,B2の交換等がされて異常(短絡や無負荷)が解消されたときの誤動作を回避することができる。   Therefore, the first control circuit 10 and the second control circuit 20 are adjusted so as to increase the amount of power supplied to the LED light sources B1 and B2 in which the abnormality detection means 3 has not detected an abnormality among the plurality of LED light sources B1 and B2. Since the means 1 and 2 are controlled, it is possible to suppress a decrease in illuminance when an abnormality occurs. However, if the first abnormality detection signal and the second abnormality detection signal are not input, the first control circuit 10 and the second control circuit 20 resume the switching of the switching elements 11 and 21 that have been stopped, and the peak value. Is preferably returned to the original value (the value before the abnormality detection signal is input). Thereby, it is possible to avoid malfunction when the LED light sources B1 and B2 are replaced and the abnormality (short circuit or no load) is resolved.

また、本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1では、交流の入力電力を直流電力に変換する交流/直流変換部(力率改善回路4)を備えることが好ましい。さらに、調整手段1,2は、交流/直流変換部4から出力される直流電力を所望の直流電力に変換する複数の直流/直流変換部(第1コンバータ1及び第2コンバータ2)を有することが好ましい。またさらに、交流/直流変換部4の出力端に複数の直流/直流変換部1,2が並列に接続され、複数の直流/直流変換部1,2の出力端に1つずつLED光源B1,B2が接続されることが好ましい。このような構成であれば、複数の直流/直流変換部1,2で1つの交流/直流変換部4を共用することができるので、回路構成の簡素化を図ることができる。   Further, the LED drive device A1 of the present embodiment preferably includes an AC / DC converter (power factor correction circuit 4) that converts AC input power into DC power. Further, the adjusting means 1 and 2 have a plurality of DC / DC converters (first converter 1 and second converter 2) for converting DC power output from the AC / DC converter 4 into desired DC power. Is preferred. Furthermore, a plurality of DC / DC converters 1 and 2 are connected in parallel to the output terminal of the AC / DC converter 4, and one LED light source B 1 is connected to each of the output terminals of the plurality of DC / DC converters 1 and 2. B2 is preferably connected. With such a configuration, one AC / DC conversion unit 4 can be shared by the plurality of DC / DC conversion units 1 and 2, so that the circuit configuration can be simplified.

あるいは、本発明の別の実施形態のLED駆動装置A2は、図3に示すように交流の入力電力を直流電力に変換する複数の交流/直流変換部(力率改善回路4A,4B)を備えても構わない。そして、複数の交流/直流変換部4A,4Bの出力端に1つずつ直流/直流変換部1,2が接続され、複数の直流/直流変換部1,2の出力端に1つずつLED光源B1,B2が接続されることが好ましい。なお、図4に示すように、2つのコンバータ1,2に対して異常検出回路3を各別に設け、各異常検出回路3の異常検出信号をそれぞれ2つのコンバータ1,2の制御回路10,20に出力する構成としても構わない。   Alternatively, the LED drive device A2 according to another embodiment of the present invention includes a plurality of AC / DC conversion units (power factor improvement circuits 4A and 4B) that convert AC input power into DC power as shown in FIG. It doesn't matter. The DC / DC converters 1 and 2 are connected to the output terminals of the plurality of AC / DC converters 4A and 4B one by one, and the LED light source is connected to the output terminals of the plurality of DC / DC converters 1 and 2 one by one. B1 and B2 are preferably connected. As shown in FIG. 4, an abnormality detection circuit 3 is provided for each of the two converters 1 and 2, and the abnormality detection signal of each abnormality detection circuit 3 is supplied to the control circuits 10 and 20 of the two converters 1 and 2, respectively. It does not matter if it is configured to output to

ところで、制御手段10,20は、調整手段1,2を制御して複数のLED光源B1,B2への給電量を定格値よりも低下させている場合において、異常検出手段3で異常が検出されたLED光源B1,B2への給電を停止することが好ましい。さらに、制御手段10,20は、異常検出手段3で異常が検出されていないLED光源B1,B2への給電量を定格値に近付けるように調整手段1,2を制御することが好ましい。   By the way, when the control means 10 and 20 control the adjustment means 1 and 2 to reduce the power supply amount to the plurality of LED light sources B1 and B2 below the rated value, the abnormality detection means 3 detects the abnormality. It is preferable to stop the power supply to the LED light sources B1 and B2. Furthermore, it is preferable that the control means 10 and 20 control the adjusting means 1 and 2 so that the amount of power supplied to the LED light sources B1 and B2 in which no abnormality is detected by the abnormality detection means 3 approaches the rated value.

例えば、図5(a)に破線αで示すように、制御手段(第1制御回路10及び第2制御回路20)が初期照度補正によって調整手段(第1コンバータ1及び第2コンバータ2)の出力を調整(減少)させていると仮定する。そして、第1LED光源B1に異常が発生した場合、第1制御回路10が第1コンバータ1を停止させる。一方、第2LED光源B2が正常であれば、第2制御回路20は、図5(a)に実線βで示すように初期照度補正を中止して第2コンバータ2の給電量を増加させ、第2LED光源B2の光出力を定格値(100%)に近付けることが好ましい。あるいは、第2制御回路20は、図5(b)に実線γで示すように、第2コンバータ2の給電量を増加して第2LED光源B2の光出力を定格値(100%)にしても構わない。このように光出力を定格値とする方が、第1制御回路10及び第2制御回路20の制御が容易になるという利点がある。あるいは、別の制御例として低調光(例えば調光レベル50%以下)ときに、図5(c)に実線βで示すように光出力を元々の明るさとほぼ同等になるように制御する(2出力時は元々の光出力の2倍とする)ようにしても良い。   For example, as indicated by a broken line α in FIG. 5A, the control means (the first control circuit 10 and the second control circuit 20) outputs the output of the adjustment means (the first converter 1 and the second converter 2) by the initial illumination correction. Is adjusted (decreased). When an abnormality occurs in the first LED light source B1, the first control circuit 10 stops the first converter 1. On the other hand, if the second LED light source B2 is normal, the second control circuit 20 stops the initial illuminance correction and increases the power supply amount of the second converter 2 as shown by the solid line β in FIG. It is preferable to bring the light output of the 2LED light source B2 close to the rated value (100%). Alternatively, as indicated by a solid line γ in FIG. 5B, the second control circuit 20 increases the power supply amount of the second converter 2 to set the light output of the second LED light source B2 to the rated value (100%). I do not care. Thus, there is an advantage that the control of the first control circuit 10 and the second control circuit 20 becomes easier when the light output is set to the rated value. Alternatively, as another control example, when low dimming (for example, dimming level of 50% or less), the light output is controlled to be substantially equal to the original brightness as indicated by the solid line β in FIG. The output may be twice the original light output).

なお、本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1,A2は2つのLED光源B1,B2を駆動(点灯)するように構成されているが、3つ以上のLED光源を駆動するように構成されても構わない。また、本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1,A2が駆動する複数のLED光源B1,B2は、同一(定格電圧及び定格電流が同一)のものである必要は無く、定格電圧又は定格電流の少なくとも一方が異なるものであっても構わない。   In addition, although LED drive device A1, A2 of this embodiment is comprised so that two LED light source B1, B2 may be driven (lighted), you may be comprised so that three or more LED light sources may be driven. Absent. Further, the plurality of LED light sources B1 and B2 driven by the LED driving devices A1 and A2 of the present embodiment do not have to be the same (rated voltage and rated current are the same), and at least one of the rated voltage and the rated current is required. May be different.

ところで、力率改善回路4の出力電圧は、2つのコンバータ1,2が動作する正常時に比べて、1つのコンバータ1又は2のみが動作する異常時には、軽負荷となるために上昇する可能性が高い。また、軽負荷となった場合、力率改善回路4の出力電圧にリップルが発生し、そのリップルの影響でLED光源B1又はB2に流れる電流が変動してちらつきが生じる虞がある。   By the way, there is a possibility that the output voltage of the power factor correction circuit 4 may be increased due to a light load at the time of an abnormality in which only one converter 1 or 2 is operated, compared with a time when the two converters 1 and 2 are normally operated. high. Further, when the load is light, a ripple occurs in the output voltage of the power factor correction circuit 4, and the current flowing through the LED light source B1 or B2 may fluctuate due to the ripple, which may cause flicker.

しかしながら、本実施形態のLED駆動装置A1,A2では、継続して動作する方のコンバータ1又は2の出力を増加させているので、出力を増加させない場合と比較して、力率改善回路4の出力電圧の上昇及びリップルの発生を抑制することができる。   However, in the LED driving devices A1 and A2 of this embodiment, since the output of the converter 1 or 2 that continuously operates is increased, the power factor correction circuit 4 of the power driving circuit 4 is compared with the case where the output is not increased. An increase in output voltage and occurrence of ripples can be suppressed.

なお、第1及び第2コンバータ1,2は、図6に示すようにスイッチング素子11,21を高電位側(ハイサイド)とした回路構成であっても構わない(ただし、図6では第1コンバータ1のみを図示し、第2コンバータ2の図示を略す)。   The first and second converters 1 and 2 may have a circuit configuration in which the switching elements 11 and 21 are on the high potential side (high side) as shown in FIG. Only the converter 1 is shown, and the second converter 2 is not shown).

In the fixture body 70, a rectangular window hole 71 is opened on the lower surface facing the two LED light sources B1 and B2, and light emitted from the LED light sources B1 and B2 is radiated downward through the window hole 71. However, the window hole 71 is closed by a transparent panel 72 made of tempered glass.
