Description

本発明の実施形態は、発光素子を用いた照明装置に関する。   Embodiments described herein relate generally to a lighting device using a light emitting element.

従来、例えば防犯灯や道路灯等の照明装置では、筐体の下面に発光素子を実装した基板を配設するとともに、筐体内の空間部に電源回路を配設していることが多い。また、筐体の下面に発光素子からの光の配光を制御するためのレンズを配設するとともに、筐体の下面をグローブで覆っていることが多い。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, in a lighting device such as a crime prevention light or a road light, a substrate on which a light emitting element is mounted is disposed on the lower surface of a housing, and a power circuit is often disposed in a space portion within the housing. In addition, a lens for controlling the light distribution from the light emitting element is disposed on the lower surface of the housing, and the lower surface of the housing is often covered with a glove.

また、部品点数の削減等のために、レンズとグローブの機能を併せ持つように、レンズ部を設けた透光カバーを筐体の下面に取り付けるようにしたものがある。   In order to reduce the number of parts, a translucent cover provided with a lens portion is attached to the lower surface of the housing so as to have both a lens and a globe function.

この場合、透光カバーが基板に近接し、基板に実装されている発光素子以外の実装部品等が透光カバーに映り込みやすくなるので、意匠性が損なわれ、商品性が低下する。   In this case, the translucent cover is close to the substrate, and mounting components other than the light-emitting elements mounted on the substrate are easily reflected on the translucent cover.

In the lens portion 68, the inner surface of the concave portion 68a is an incident surface 68b on which light from the light emitting element 21 is incident, and the convex surface protruding from the light emitting element side cover portion 65a is an outgoing surface 68c from which the incident light is emitted.

収容部69は、コンデンサCを収容するように、発光素子側カバー部65aの下方に突設されている。   The accommodating portion 69 protrudes below the light emitting element side cover portion 65a so as to accommodate the capacitor C.

突出部70は、複数のレンズ部68の内側間に位置し、ねじ25との干渉を防止するように発光素子側カバー部65aの下方に半球状に突設されている。突出部70は、発光素子側カバー部65aに対してレンズ部68よりも下方に突出されている(図1の2点鎖線参照)。   The protruding portion 70 is located between the insides of the plurality of lens portions 68, and protrudes in a hemispherical shape below the light emitting element side cover portion 65a so as to prevent interference with the screw 25. The protruding portion 70 protrudes below the lens portion 68 with respect to the light emitting element side cover portion 65a (see the two-dot chain line in FIG. 1).

発光素子側カバー部65aの内側で周辺部には、透光カバー15の補強のための補強部71が一体に形成されている。補強部71は、当接部66の内側に沿って形成されている。発光素子側カバー部65aの内面からの補強部71の突出高さは、透光カバー15を筐体11に固定した状態で補強部71が筐体11に接触しない高さとされている。補強部71の内側には、基板20が嵌り込むように構成されている。なお、補強部71は、発光素子側カバー部65aから電源回路側カバー部65bまで連続して形成されていてもよい。   A reinforcing portion 71 for reinforcing the translucent cover 15 is formed integrally with the inner periphery of the light emitting element side cover portion 65a. The reinforcing portion 71 is formed along the inside of the contact portion 66. The protruding height of the reinforcing portion 71 from the inner surface of the light emitting element side cover portion 65a is set such that the reinforcing portion 71 does not come into contact with the housing 11 in a state where the light transmitting cover 15 is fixed to the housing 11. The substrate 20 is configured to fit inside the reinforcing portion 71. The reinforcing portion 71 may be formed continuously from the light emitting element side cover portion 65a to the power circuit side cover portion 65b.

電源回路側カバー部65bには、基板20の電源回路22や基板20を筐体11に固定しているねじ25との干渉を防止するために、基板20との間に所定の間隙が形成されているように下方へ突出する突出部72が形成されている。突出部72は、電源回路側カバー部65bの略全域に形成されており、筐体11の下面や基板20に平行な平面部73を有している。突出部72は、筐体11の下面に対してレンズ部68よりも下方へ突出されているとともに、その突出量が突出部70の突出量と同じとされている(図1の2点鎖線参照)。さらに、突出部72の幅方向の両側には、基板20を筐体11に押し付ける複数の押付部74が形成されている。   A predetermined gap is formed between the power supply circuit side cover portion 65b and the substrate 20 in order to prevent interference with the power supply circuit 22 of the substrate 20 and the screws 25 fixing the substrate 20 to the housing 11. As shown, a projecting portion 72 projecting downward is formed. The protruding portion 72 is formed in substantially the entire area of the power circuit side cover portion 65b, and has a flat surface portion 73 parallel to the lower surface of the housing 11 and the substrate 20. The protruding portion 72 protrudes below the lens portion 68 with respect to the lower surface of the housing 11, and the protruding amount is the same as the protruding amount of the protruding portion 70 (see the two-dot chain line in FIG. 1). ). Furthermore, a plurality of pressing portions 74 that press the substrate 20 against the housing 11 are formed on both sides of the protruding portion 72 in the width direction.

そして、透光カバー15は、レンズ部68を除き、収容部69および突出部70等を含むカバー部65が光拡散性を有している。すなわち、レンズ部68(入射面68bおよび出射面68cを含む)を除き、収容部69および突出部70等を含むカバー部65の内面および外面の少なくとも一方に、例えばシボ等の凹凸を形成することで、光拡散効果のある拡散面75が形成されている。   In the translucent cover 15, except for the lens portion 68, the cover portion 65 including the accommodating portion 69, the protruding portion 70, and the like has light diffusibility. That is, irregularities such as wrinkles are formed on at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface of the cover portion 65 including the housing portion 69, the protruding portion 70, etc., excluding the lens portion 68 (including the entrance surface 68b and the exit surface 68c). Thus, a diffusion surface 75 having a light diffusion effect is formed.

また、延焼防止シート16は、透光カバー15の電源回路側カバー部65bの内面に沿って配置され、基板20の電源回路実装領域23bに実装された電源回路22と透光カバー15の電源回路側カバー部65bとの間を隔離する。延焼防止シート16は、例えばノーメックス(登録商標)紙のタイプ410等が用いられる。   Further, the fire spread prevention sheet 16 is disposed along the inner surface of the power circuit side cover portion 65b of the translucent cover 15, and the power circuit 22 mounted on the power circuit mounting area 23b of the substrate 20 and the power circuit of the translucent cover 15 The space between the side cover portion 65b is isolated. As the fire spread prevention sheet 16, for example, Nomex (registered trademark) paper type 410 is used.

このように構成された照明装置10は、取付部36および別途用いられる取付金具によって例えば道路の脇に設置された電柱やポール等に設置される。その際、電源回路22は電線58によって交流電源に接続され、筐体11はアース接続される。照明装置10の設置状態では、筐体11の先端側が斜め上方に向けて傾斜し、光源ユニット12および透光カバー15等が道路の中心側に対向される。   The illuminating device 10 configured as described above is installed, for example, on a utility pole or pole installed on the side of a road by the mounting portion 36 and a separately used mounting bracket. At that time, the power supply circuit 22 is connected to an AC power supply by an electric wire 58, and the casing 11 is grounded. In the installed state of the lighting device 10, the front end side of the housing 11 is inclined obliquely upward, and the light source unit 12, the translucent cover 15 and the like are opposed to the center side of the road.

そして、照明装置10は、筐体11の上面の採光窓54から採光される外光が遮光筒55を通じて照度センサ30に入射し、照度センサ30が明るさを検出する。   In the illuminating device 10, the outside light collected from the lighting window 54 on the upper surface of the housing 11 enters the illuminance sensor 30 through the light shielding cylinder 55, and the illuminance sensor 30 detects the brightness.

電源回路22は、発光素子21の消灯状態において、照度センサ30で検出する明るさが所定の閾値よりも低くなることにより、交流電力を所定の直流電力に変換して発光素子21に供給し、発光素子21を点灯させる。また、電源回路22は、発光素子21の点灯状態において、照度センサ30で検出する明るさが所定の閾値よりも高くなることにより、発光素子21への直流電力の供給を停止し、発光素子21を消灯させる。   The power supply circuit 22 converts the alternating current power into predetermined direct current power and supplies it to the light emitting element 21 when the brightness detected by the illuminance sensor 30 is lower than a predetermined threshold when the light emitting element 21 is turned off. The light emitting element 21 is turned on. In addition, the power supply circuit 22 stops the supply of DC power to the light emitting element 21 when the brightness detected by the illuminance sensor 30 is higher than a predetermined threshold in the lighting state of the light emitting element 21, and the light emitting element 21 Turn off the light.

また、点灯時において、発光素子21が発生する熱は、基板20に伝わり、基板20から筐体11に熱伝導され、筐体11の外面から大気中に放熱され、さらに、基板20に伝わった熱の一部が透光カバー15に伝わり、透光カバー15の外面から外気中に放熱される。   Further, at the time of lighting, the heat generated by the light emitting element 21 is transmitted to the substrate 20, is thermally conducted from the substrate 20 to the housing 11, is radiated from the outer surface of the housing 11 to the atmosphere, and is further transmitted to the substrate 20. A part of the heat is transmitted to the translucent cover 15 and is radiated from the outer surface of the translucent cover 15 into the outside air.

電源回路22の電子部品29が発生する熱は、電源回路22が配置されている電源回路側空間部34b内の空気中に放熱されるとともに、電源回路側空間部34b内の空気の対流によって筐体11に伝わり、筐体11の外面から外気中に放熱される。   The heat generated by the electronic components 29 of the power supply circuit 22 is radiated into the air in the power supply circuit side space 34b where the power supply circuit 22 is disposed, and at the same time due to the convection of the air in the power supply circuit side space 34b. It is transmitted to the body 11 and radiated from the outer surface of the housing 11 into the outside air.

また、点灯時において、発光素子21の光は、入射面68bからレンズ部68に入射し、出射面68cから所定の配光方向に向けて出射される。このとき、レンズ部68は、光拡散性を施されていないため、発光素子21の光を所定の配光に制御できるとともに、発光素子21の光を効率よく出射することができる。   Further, at the time of lighting, the light of the light emitting element 21 enters the lens unit 68 from the incident surface 68b and is emitted from the emission surface 68c in a predetermined light distribution direction. At this time, since the lens unit 68 is not subjected to light diffusibility, the light from the light emitting element 21 can be controlled to a predetermined light distribution, and the light from the light emitting element 21 can be emitted efficiently.

発光素子21の光の一部は、出射面68cから出射されずに出射面68cで反射するなどして、カバー部65に導光される。カバー部65に導光された光は、カバー部65が光拡散性を有することによって、すなわち拡散面75の作用によって、カバー部65の少なくとも発光素子側カバー部65aの表面から拡散出射される。   A part of the light of the light emitting element 21 is guided to the cover portion 65 by being reflected by the emission surface 68c without being emitted from the emission surface 68c. The light guided to the cover portion 65 is diffused and emitted from the surface of at least the light emitting element side cover portion 65a of the cover portion 65 by the light diffusion property of the cover portion 65, that is, by the action of the diffusion surface 75.

そのため、透光カバー15は、レンズ部68から光が出射されるとともに、カバー部65からも光が拡散出射されるため、レンズ部68とカバー部65との輝度差が少なくなり、透光カバー15の少なくとも発光素子側カバー部65aの全体が光っているように見え、グレアを低減することができる。   Therefore, the translucent cover 15 emits light from the lens unit 68 and also diffuses and emits light from the cover unit 65, so that the difference in luminance between the lens unit 68 and the cover unit 65 is reduced, and the translucent cover At least the entire light emitting element side cover portion 65a of 15 appears to shine, and glare can be reduced.

また、透光カバー15のカバー部65は、基板20に接触または接近しており、カバー部65を透過して基板20に実装されている発光素子21以外の実装部品や基板20を筐体11に固定しているねじ25等が透光カバー15に映り込み、透光カバー15の外部から見えやすいが、カバー部65が光拡散性を有するため、基板20に実装されている発光素子21以外の実装部品や基板20を筐体11に固定しているねじ25等が透光カバー15に映り込むのを低減し、透光カバー15の外部から見えにくくできる。そのため、照明装置10の意匠性が良好で、商品性を向上できる。   Further, the cover portion 65 of the translucent cover 15 is in contact with or close to the substrate 20, and the mounting component other than the light emitting element 21 and the substrate 20 that are mounted on the substrate 20 through the cover portion 65 are mounted on the housing 11. The screws 25 etc. that are fixed to the light are reflected on the translucent cover 15 and can be easily seen from the outside of the translucent cover 15, but since the cover portion 65 has light diffusibility, other than the light emitting element 21 mounted on the substrate 20 It is possible to reduce the reflection of the mounted parts and the screws 25 fixing the substrate 20 to the housing 11 on the translucent cover 15 and make it difficult to see from the outside of the translucent cover 15. Therefore, the design of the lighting device 10 is good, and the merchantability can be improved.

また、基板20の外側縁部と筐体11の開口部35(空間部34)の内側縁部との間に隙間51を設けているため、基板20の配線パターンや実装されている部品と筐体11との間に絶縁空間を形成し、基板20と筐体11との絶縁距離を確保できるとともに、寒暖によって基板20や筐体11の収縮または膨張があっても絶縁距離を維持でき、さらに、隙間51を通じて空気の流れが可能となり、放熱性の向上が期待できる。そして、隙間51が外部から見えると意匠性が好ましくないが、透光カバー15の光拡散性を有するカバー部65で隙間51を覆うため、隙間51を外部から見えにくくできる。   Further, since the gap 51 is provided between the outer edge of the substrate 20 and the inner edge of the opening 35 (space 34) of the housing 11, the wiring pattern of the substrate 20 and the mounted components and the housing Insulation space is formed between the body 11 and the insulation distance between the substrate 20 and the housing 11 can be secured, and the insulation distance can be maintained even if the substrate 20 or the housing 11 contracts or expands due to cold or warm. In addition, air can flow through the gap 51, and improvement in heat dissipation can be expected. Further, when the gap 51 is visible from the outside, the design is not preferable, but the gap 51 is covered with the cover portion 65 having the light diffusibility of the translucent cover 15, so that the gap 51 can be hardly seen from the outside.

また、透光カバー15は長手方向の両端部が筐体11にねじ41で固定されるだけであるため、透光カバー15が変形しやすく、透光カバー15と筐体11との間の防水性が損なわれる虞があるが、透光カバー15に補強部71を設けているため、透光カバー15の変形を抑制し、防水性を確保することができる。   Further, since both ends in the longitudinal direction of the translucent cover 15 are only fixed to the casing 11 with screws 41, the translucent cover 15 is easily deformed, and the waterproof between the translucent cover 15 and the casing 11 is waterproof. However, since the reinforced portion 71 is provided in the translucent cover 15, deformation of the translucent cover 15 can be suppressed and waterproofness can be ensured.

また、筐体11の配線孔47の外面側に、配線孔47の周囲を囲むように突部47aを設けているため、筐体11の外面を伝わって流れる雨水が配線孔47に流れ込まないように突部47aで遮ることができ、防水性を向上できる。さらに、突部47aの先端から側面部33に亘って傾斜部47bを設けているため、金型を用いた製造時に容易に突部47aの部分を容易に製造することができる。   Further, since the protrusion 47a is provided on the outer surface side of the wiring hole 47 of the housing 11 so as to surround the wiring hole 47, rainwater flowing along the outer surface of the housing 11 does not flow into the wiring hole 47. It can be blocked by the protrusion 47a, and the waterproofness can be improved. Furthermore, since the inclined portion 47b is provided from the tip of the protrusion 47a to the side surface portion 33, the portion of the protrusion 47a can be easily manufactured at the time of manufacturing using a mold.
