Description

The present invention relates to useful and useful light generators suitable for various purposes such as healing appliances, lighting fixtures, light decoration fixtures, lighting fixtures, light objects, light emitting figurines, and light emitting wall hangings.

An appliance having both a healing function and a lighting function is described in Patent Document 1 below. The instruments described in this document (hereinafter referred to as conventional instruments) are said to have the effects listed in the following <A01> to <A11>.
<01> When different color lights (plural) having different wavelengths are emitted toward the light reflecting surface in the internal space of the casing, the light is reflected multiple times on the light reflecting surface and from the light transmitting surface of the casing to the outside of the casing. Light interference occurs because it comes out. As a result, colored light of various shades is generated in the internal space of the casing, which creates a fantastic atmosphere, which spreads from the light transmitting surface of the casing to the outside of the casing. When a user seeking healing is exposed to such light, healed psychiatrically by experiencing the unique and fantastic light.
<02> Regarding the light energy in the range of wavelength ≈360 nm to 830 nm or wavelength ≈300 nm to 900 nm emitted from the casing, since it has attracted attention in the medical field, treatment of diseases (disease) and activity of cells and tissues of the human body. It is used for sterilization of chemicals and pathogenic bacteria. In addition, it is also used for growing plants and seafood. When it receives the irradiation, it acts effectively on the body and brings about the above-mentioned effects, which is significant in activating a human physiological phenomenon. As a result, the user is freed from physical pain, fatigue, functional deterioration, injury or illness, and is physiologically healed.
<03> The user can empirically understand that the energy of the light emitting diode emitted from the casing by reflection is effective for healing the mind and body. Furthermore, it produces good psychological results as well as the placebo effect. This becomes a suggestive effect and conditioning, and the healing power of the user is naturally drawn out. This can be said to be particularly effective for subjective symptoms such as stress.
<04> When the above-mentioned psychiatric effect, physiological effect, and psychological effect are superimposed, the healing effect is several times higher than the effect of each alone, so that a high degree of healing effect on the mind and body should be exhibited. Can be done.
<05> The casing has a simple structure having a light reflecting surface and a light transmitting surface, and the light generating means also has a simple structure including a light emitting portion by a light emitting diode. Further, also in the relative relationship of the main components, since the light emitting portion of the light generating means need only be arranged and held in the internal space of the casing, the fixture configuration is simplified as a whole.
<06> The light emitted from the light emitting diode is almost safe in the visible region, and further, it is not the direct light of the LED light, but is reflected and then taken out to the outside of the casing, so that the safety is further improved. Moreover, since the LED reflected light can be taken out of the casing by simply energizing it, it can be said that the usage of a highly safe healing device is extremely easy.
<07> As described above, the light generating means mainly composed of the casing having a reflecting surface and the light emitting diode has a simple structure, and cheap materials can be adopted as these constituent materials. Therefore, the initial cost of the healing device can be kept low.
<08> As is well known, light emitting diodes use a low amount of electric power. Therefore, the running cost of the healing device when the required light is taken out during use can be kept low. In addition, because the light emitting diode has a long life, the healing device does not require much maintenance fee.
<09> In a healing device in which a transparent member is arranged in the casing, the LED light that reaches here causes transmission, refraction, reflection, etc., and the refraction or reflection of the LED light changes its direction. Or something. Therefore, the paths of the plurality of LED reflected lights that are different from each other and are emitted to the outside of the casing become complicated and diverse. Therefore, the fantastic atmosphere of the LED light exceeds that of the above <>, and the effect of psychiatric healing also exceeds that of the above <>.
<10> When the casing is composed of an inner case, an outer case, and a combined product, the inner case has a predetermined internal space. In this case, since the outer case has a degree of freedom in design and manufacture, it is possible to satisfy the strength, stable installation, appearance, etc. depending on this degree.
<11> As mentioned above, the healing device becomes a visual work of art that creates a fantastic atmosphere. It is versatile enough to be used for visual viewing as well as for commercial displays.

The conventional device disclosed in Patent Document 1 can be said to be useful and useful from the above description. However, there is still room for improvement in conventional appliances. The problem is as follows <21> to <24>.
<21> The first problem of the conventional instrument is that the structural bulkiness is large, the weight of the instrument is heavy, and the instrument is not compact. The reason is that the corresponding parts are built into the large box-shaped casing. Of course, bulky and heavy equipment requires a lot of space to install or hang, which makes it extremely inconvenient to carry or carry.
<22> The second problem of the conventional fixture is that the light irradiation direction is limited to the front of the box-shaped casing. This is because all the light reflected by the light reflecting surface in the box-shaped casing is emitted to the front of the box-shaped casing. In such a case, a region other than the front of the box-shaped casing becomes a dark portion (dark side), which makes it difficult to visually recognize the region.
<23> The third problem of the conventional instrument is that the structure is bulky and the number of parts and the types of parts are large, so that it is difficult to manufacture the instrument. Therefore, it takes a lot of time and days to manufacture the equipment.
<24> The fourth problem with conventional appliances is that the production cost increases due to the above-mentioned points (large instrument structure, high weight of appliances, many kinds of parts, many manufacturing days, etc.), which is the product. This is because it pushes up the cost of (equipment).

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2008-272273

In view of the above technical problems, the present invention has improved light generation rate, improved healing effect, multi-directional dispersion in light irradiation direction, convenience in use, miniaturization, concise configuration, and compactification. We are trying to provide a light generator that can satisfy such things as weight reduction, relaxation or reduction of manufacturing difficulty, and low cost.

The light generator according to the present invention is characterized by the technical contents of the following items 1 to 3 as a means for solving a problem for achieving a desired object.
[Item 1]
It has a light reflector and a light generating means, and
The light reflector is selected from a cone-shaped hollow three-dimensional shape, a parabolic hollow three-dimensional shape, a parabolic cone-shaped hollow three-dimensional shape, and a paraboloid-shaped hollow three-dimensional shape. It consists of a hollow three-dimensional shape, and
The inner peripheral surface of the light reflector is formed of a light reflecting surface, and the front surface of the light reflecting body is a light passing surface.
The light generating means has a light generating unit, and the light generating unit is equipped with a light emitting diode for emitting light toward a light reflecting surface of the light reflector, and
Regarding the light generating means, the condition that the light generating unit is opposed to the light passing surface and the condition that the light generating unit emits light toward the light reflecting surface are satisfied. It is arranged and held in the light reflecting body, and a light passing space for passing light is interposed around the light generating means in the light reflecting body, and
The peripheral wall of the light reflector is provided with a light leaking portion for leaking light from the inside side to the outside side of the light reflector , and the light leaking portion causes the light reflector in the light reflector. Part of the light reflecting surface has disappeared , and
With respect to the light generating portion arranged in the light reflecting body and the light leaking portion on the peripheral wall of the light reflecting body, the distance from the light passing surface to the light leaking portion is from the light passing surface to the light generating portion. The light leaking portion on the peripheral wall of the light reflector is located more inward of the light reflector than the light generating portion, and
The light emitted from the light generating portion of the light generating means is reflected by the light reflecting surface of the light reflector, and the reflected light passes through the light passing surface and the light leaking portion and is dispersed. A light generator characterized by being simultaneously emitted outside the reflector.
[Section 2]
The light generating device according to the first item, wherein the light generating unit of the light generating means is equipped with a plurality of types of light emitting diodes for emitting light of different colors.
[Section 3]
The light generator according to the first item or the second item, wherein one or more transparent bodies are arranged and held in the light reflecting body.

[Action (Usage)]
<31> In the case of the light generator according to the present invention, light is emitted from the light emitting diode of the light generating means (light generating unit) toward the light reflecting surface in the light reflecting body. After the light from the light emitting diode is reflected by the light reflecting surface, it goes out of the light reflecting body from the light passing surface of the light reflecting body. The energy of the light that goes out of the light reflector is applied to a part or a plurality of parts of the body of the person who is going to be healed (hereinafter referred to as the user). A user who will be exposed to such light irradiation for an appropriate period of time is healed by the peculiarity of the light.
<32> On the other hand, the light generator of the present invention also has a function as a lighting device. In the case of a luminaire, the light emitted from the light reflector to the outside of the light reflector as described above, or the light leaking from the light leaking portion of the peripheral wall of the light reflector to the outside of the light reflector is used as the illumination light.
<33> In the light generator of the present invention, the light emitted from the light leaking portion to the outside of the light reflector eliminates the dark portion around the light reflector. That is, the leaked light from the light leaking portion raises the illuminance of the peripheral region while making the outline of the light reflector stand out, so that the peripheral region becomes visible. Of course, this enhances the lighting function as a lighting fixture, but at the same time, it also creates a situation in which the light beam is emitted from the light reflector, so that the healing function as a healing fixture also enhances.

Since the light generator according to the present invention is as described above, the healing device has the same effect as the conventional device (see <01> to <11> above).

The light generator according to the present invention further includes the following <Healing fixtures, lighting fixtures, light decoration fixtures, lighting fixtures, light objects, luminescent figurines, luminescent wall hangings, etc., especially as healing fixtures and lighting fixtures. There are also peculiar effects such as 41> to <51>.
<41> The light reflector forming the main body of the light generator of the present invention has a hollow three-dimensional shape having a shape such as a cone shape, a parabolic shape, a parabolic shape, or a parabolic shape. The volume of such a light reflector is approximately one-third that of a conventional device having a box-shaped casing. Nevertheless, the light generator of the present invention can emit light equal to or higher than that of the conventional device. In other words, it can be said that the extraction of big power in a small size has been technically established because a small instrument emits a large amount of light. Of course, in the case of the light generator of the present invention, a large-scale large-scale device can be manufactured. Even in that case, unnecessary structural bulkiness does not occur.
<42> The light generator of the present invention can perform high-quality healing depending on high light generation efficiency. One of the reasons is that the high light generation efficiency, which is important for this kind of healing, is satisfactorily secured as described above. One of the other reasons is that in the case of light-based healing, the unnecessary size of the device can be a hindrance to healing, which is avoided by downsizing the device. As a synergistic effect of these, a high degree of healing can be carried out.
<43> In the case of the light generator of the present invention, since the light leaking portion is provided on the peripheral wall of the light reflecting body, the light reflecting body is provided not only from the front side (light passing surface) of the light reflecting body but also through the light leaking portion. Light is also emitted in the circumferential direction. This means that multi-directional dispersibility can be obtained in the light irradiation direction. In this case, the light in the circumferential direction of the light reflector eliminates the formation of a dark portion around the light reflector. Therefore, as a luminaire, a illuminating effect can be obtained in which a larger area including a front area and a circumferential area of the light reflector can be visually recognized.
<44> In the case of the light generator of the present invention in which the above-mentioned multi-directional dispersibility in the light irradiation direction can be obtained, radial light beams and dim light due to the radial light beam are generated around the light reflector. The healing effect is further enhanced by admiring the fantastic atmosphere caused by such light generation.
<45> Since the light reflector in the light generator of the present invention has a hollow three-dimensional shape such as a cone shape, a parabolic shape, a parabolic cone shape, and a parabolic head shape, the lower surface is wide and the center of gravity is low and stable. There is sex. This is because, for each part of the light reflector in the vertical direction, the lowermost part has the maximum dimension, the size gradually decreases from the lowermost part to the upper part, and the uppermost part becomes the minimum size. The light generator of the present invention, which has this stable light reflector as its main body, can respond to any usage mode such as hanging, hanging, installing, carrying, and carrying in a stable posture, and is extremely convenient. Because it is a thing, it is highly convenient to use.
<46> As described above, the light reflector in the light generator of the present invention emits light equal to or higher than that of the conventional device, but its volume is approximately one-third that of the conventional device. It is a thing. Moreover, the number of parts that can be assembled inside this light reflector is small. This achieves miniaturization of light generators while maintaining high functionality or high performance. In the case of this miniaturized light generator of the present invention, practical convenience is further enhanced because of its small size.
<47> The light generator of the present invention has a small number of parts assembled inside a light reflector. The light reflector in this case, whether it is a cone system or a parabolic system, has a shape or structure that is well known so far and is not particularly complicated. Furthermore, parts that can be assembled inside the light reflector, for example, a light generating means mainly composed of a light emitting diode, can be covered by ready-made products and can be easily assembled inside the light reflector. Therefore, in the case of the light generator of the present invention, a device having high functionality or high performance can be obtained with a simple configuration.
<48> In the case of the light generator of the present invention, since a small light reflector is used as a base and all other main parts are assembled in the small light reflector, the device as a whole is extremely compact. You can say that.
<49> In one aspect of the light generator of the present invention, its constituent parts are two parts, a light reflector and a light generating means, and in the other aspect, only one part or two parts are added thereto. Therefore, in the case of the light generator of the present invention, the weight of the device has been sufficiently reduced.
<50> As described above, the light generator of the present invention satisfies the miniaturization, the minority of parts, the simplification of the configuration, the adoption of ready-made parts, etc., which is also good for the difficulty of manufacturing the equipment. Bring. That is, in the case of the light generator of the present invention, the difficulty of manufacturing the fixture is alleviated or reduced by downsizing, minority parts, simplification of the configuration, adoption of ready-made parts, and the like.
<51> The miniaturization, the small number of parts, the simplification of the configuration, the adoption of ready-made parts, the alleviation or reduction of the manufacturing difficulty, etc., which are seen in the light generator of the present invention, bring about good results in terms of the cost of the equipment. That is, in the case of the light generator of the present invention, the fixture can be manufactured at low cost by relying on miniaturization, a small number of parts, simplification of the configuration, adoption of ready-made parts, relaxation or reduction of manufacturing difficulty, and the like. Based on this, it will be possible to provide the equipment at a low price.

This is an example of an embodiment of the light generator according to the present invention. 1 (A) is a perspective view of the light generator, FIG. 1 (B) is a vertical sectional view showing the internal structure of the light generator, and FIG. 1 (C) is a perspective view of the light generator. It is a circuit block diagram of the light generating means in the light generating apparatus of this invention. Various other embodiments of the light generator according to the present invention are illustrated. 3 (A) to 3 (E) are perspective views of the light generator, respectively.

Regarding the light generator according to the present invention, first, those of the embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 will be described, and then those of each of the other embodiments exemplified in FIG. 3 will be described.

In the light generators exemplified in (A), (B), and (C) of FIG. 1, 11 indicates a light reflector, 21 and 22 indicate a transparent body, and 31 indicates a light generating means.

The light reflector 11 of FIGS. 1A and 1B has a hollow three-dimensional shape of a cone system. As the pyramid shape of the light reflector 11 having the hollow three-dimensional shape, any one is selected from a polygonal pyramid shape having a triangular pyramid or more and a seed cone shape (including a perfect circle or an elliptical cone shape). Incidentally, the light reflector 11 of FIGS. 1 (A) and 1 (B) has a quadrangular pyramid-shaped hollow three-dimensional shape. As the light reflector 11, various dimensions such as small size, medium size, and large size are produced according to the scale of the fixture.

Regarding the light reflector 11, for convenience of explanation, the upper side in FIGS. 1A and 1B may be referred to as a top portion, and the lower portion in FIGS. 1A and 1B may be referred to as a bottom surface portion. Further, when explaining each member and each part, the side facing the lower part in the light reflector 11 may be referred to as a front surface, and the side facing the upper part in the light reflector 11 may be referred to as a back surface. However, since the light reflector 11 takes various postures when used and the posture or direction (direction) is not constant, such an expression does not refer to the absolute part of the light reflector 11. ..

The light reflectors 11 of FIGS. 1A and 1B are hard paper, paperboard / laminated paper, wood, glass (including reinforced glass), ceramics, stones, gypsum, cement, plastic (synthetic resin), reinforced plastic ( It is made of any material selected from FRP), soft rubber, semi-hard rubber, hard rubber, metal, etc., or a composite material in which two or more of these are combined. As a typical example thereof, the light reflector 11 is made of metal. As another typical example, the light reflector 11 is mainly made of plastic.

The inner peripheral surface (inner surface) of the light reflector 11 is a light reflecting surface 12 having a light reflecting function. The light reflecting surface 12 is formed by various means in consideration of the material of the light reflecting body 11. For example, when the light reflector 11 is made of a metal such as steel, the inner peripheral surface (inner surface) of the light reflector 11 is mirror-finished by polishing (buffing) or the like, or the light reflector 11 is plated. Alternatively, it is formed by attaching a mirror film to the inner peripheral surface (inner surface) of the light reflector 11. In the case of a light reflector 11 made of paper, a light reflector 11 made of wood, a light reflector 11 made of plastic, etc., the light reflecting surface 12 is formed by attaching a mirror film to the inner peripheral surface (inner surface) thereof. To. In the case of the light reflector 11 made of glass or ceramic, the one produced as a plate-shaped mirror is used. This plate-shaped mirror has at least one side as a mirror.

The bottom surface side of the light reflector 11 is a light passing surface 13. As an example, the light passing surface 13 is composed of an open surface of the light reflector 11. As another example, a plate-shaped or film-shaped light-transmitting material (transparent or translucent material) 14 may be attached to the open surface side of the light reflector 11 and closed. The light transmissive material 14 may be attached to the light reflector 11 by a well-known means, for example, by adhesion, heat fusion, metal fittings, or the like. Even if the bottom surface side of the light reflector 11 is closed by the light transmitting material 14 in this way, the light in the light reflecting body 11 passes through the light transmitting material 14 on the light passing surface 13 side and is passed through the light reflecting material 11. You can go out. The location is the light passing surface 13. In addition to this, there is also a light-transmitting space 15 inside the light reflector 11. This means that the residual space after being equipped with the transparent bodies 21 and 22 and the light generating means 31 described later becomes the light transmitting space 15.

A light leaking portion 16 for leaking light from the inside of the light reflector 11 to the outside of the light reflector 11 is formed on the peripheral wall of the light reflector 11. The light leakage portion 16 formed on the peripheral wall of the light reflector 11 may be singular or plural. In the example of FIGS. 1A and 1B, a plurality of (four) light leaking portions 16 are formed dispersed in the front wall, the rear wall, the left wall, the right wall, and the like of the light reflector 11. The shape of the light leaking portion 16 may be any of a circular shape, an elliptical shape, a polygonal shape, a deformed shape, and the like. In the example of FIGS. 1A and 1B, a circular light leakage portion 16 is formed on the four walls of the light reflector 11.

The first means for forming the light leaking portion 16 on the light reflector 11 is to perforate the peripheral wall of the light reflector 11. The hole after the drilling becomes the light leakage portion 16. On the other hand, when the light reflector 11 is composed of a transparent or translucent light transmitting material and a light reflecting material (light reflecting film, mirror surface film, etc.) attached to the inner surface of the light transmitting material, the first As a second means, the light leaking portion 16 is formed by removing a part of the light reflecting material from the inner surface of the light reflecting body 11. On the other hand, the light reflector 11 is a transparent or translucent light transmitting material, a light reflecting material (light reflecting film, mirror surface film, etc.) attached to the inner surface of the light transmitting material, and an outer surface of the light transmitting material. When it is composed of an opaque material (opaque film) attached, as a third means, a light leakage portion 16 is formed by removing predetermined portions of the light reflecting material and the opaque material. To. As for the second means and the third means, a light reflecting material or an opaque material in which a predetermined portion is perforated in advance may be attached to the inner and outer surfaces of the light transmitting material.

In addition, on the top of the light reflector 11 or other parts, for example, as shown in FIGS. 1 (A) and 1 (B), a handle for gripping the device, a hanging tool for holding the device, and a hook for hanging the device on the wall. The related auxiliary tool 17 such as the above may be provided as needed. On the other hand, a leg or a pedestal for installing an instrument may be provided on the bottom of the light reflector 11 as a related holder 17 as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B.

Further, when adding any one or more of the alarm function, the acoustic function, the fragrance function, the insect repellent function, the insecticidal function, etc. to the light generator of the present invention, the alarm device, the acoustic device, the air freshener, the insect repellent, and the insecticide are added. Any one or more of the agents and the like are attached to the inside and / or the outside of the light reflector 11.

As is obvious, the transparent bodies 21 and 22 attached to the inside of the light reflector 11 in FIGS. 1A and 1B are made of a transparent material. The transparent bodies 21 and 22 may be either a solid type or a hollow type, and may be either colorless transparent or colored transparent. As a typical example, solid, colorless and transparent transparent bodies 21 and 22 are adopted. The size of the transparent bodies 21 and 22 is set according to the size of the internal space of the light reflector 11, and the maximum diameter portion is often in the range of 2 to 30 cm. The number of transparent bodies 21 and 22 provided in the light reflector 11 may be a plurality as shown in the figure, or may be a single number. When a plurality of transparent bodies 21 and 22 are used, the transparent bodies 21 and 22 may have the same shape and different shapes, the same size and different sizes, colorless transparent cases, and colored transparent bodies. In FIGS. 1A and 1B, two transparent bodies 21 having different shapes and sizes are used. Of these, one transparent body 21 attached to the inner surface of the top of the light reflector 11 is made of a sphere (eg, a transparent member such as a crystal = a transparent jewel), and the other is attached to the light passing surface 13 side of the light reflector 11. The transparent body 22 is made of a polyhedron (diamond or diamond-like transparent member). When the transparent body 21 is made of a crystal ball, it is worshiped as a gemstone in the streets, so it can be said that it is desirable in terms of psychological action. When the transparent body 22 is made of a polyhedron (imitation diamond) similar to a diamond cut diamond, it can be said that the polyhedron having a diamond cut structure is desirable because the refraction and reflection of light are varied. In another example, the transparent bodies 21 and 22 are made of one or more of transparent glass, transparent plastic, transparent glass coated with a transparent synthetic resin, and the like.

The attachment of the transparent body 22 described above will be described later. That is, the transparent body 22 is mounted in the light reflector 11 by using the substrate member 32 of the light generating means 31. More specifically, the transparent body 22 is applied to and attached to the hole-shaped opening 33 in the central portion of the substrate member 32.

The light generating means 31 mainly composed of the light emitting diode (LED) 36 of FIG. 1B has a well-known electric circuit illustrated in FIG. The electric circuit of FIG. 2 is configured by assembling necessary circuit components to the substrate member 32. As is clear with reference to FIG. 2, there is a light generating portion 34 for mounting the LED on the upper surface (inward facing surface) of the substrate member 32, and the outer peripheral portion of the substrate member 32 is integrated therein. A plurality of mounting members (stays) 35 extending radially are provided.

As the light emitting diode 36 in the light generating means 31 of FIG. 2, any one that emits colored light can be adopted. In that case, a plurality of types of light emitting diodes 36 are combined in the range from monocolor to full color. The light emitting diode 36 in this illustrated example is composed of a red light emitting diode 36R, a green light emitting diode 36G, and a blue light emitting diode 36B in order to generate full-color light. As is well known, the specific full-color light emitting diode 36 is one in which a predetermined LED is fixed to a substrate and the front surface thereof is covered with a transparent cover.

The above-mentioned full-color light emitting diode 36 is electrically incorporated into a known or well-known electric circuit as illustrated in FIG. 2 in order to make it emit light in an arbitrary color or change its brightness and color tone. There is. That is, the full-color light emitting diode 36 includes a central processing unit (CPU) 37, a read-only storage device (ROM) 38, a read / write storage device (RAM) 39, an input / output interface 40, a driver 41, and a decoder 42. The circuit is configured with three units of resistors R1 to R3, R4 to R6, R7 to R9, etc., which have different resistance values. The substrate member 32 having the light generating portion 34 for attaching the light emitting diode 36 is in the shape of a plate or a block. It can be any plate or block selected from circular, polygonal, rotiferous, variant, etc. The substrate member 32 may be a solid body or a hollow body. The substrate member 32 in the illustrated example is plate-shaped and has a round ring shape (ring shape). The material of the substrate member 32 is a single material or a composite material selected from metal, synthetic resin, wood, and hard rubber.

The full-color light emitting diode 36 is attached to the substrate member 32 of the light generating means 31. It is attached to the back surface side of the substrate member 32 (the upper surface side of FIGS. 1A and 1B), that is, the light generating portion 34 corresponding to the upper surface portion of the substrate member 32. A plurality of full-color light emitting diodes 36 attached by well-known means such as an adhesive fixing means and a metal fitting fixing means are distributed in the light generating portion 34 at equal intervals or unequal intervals.

As is clear from FIG. 1 (B), the light generating means 31 mainly composed of the substrate member 32 having the light generating portion 34 is mounted inside the light reflector 11 via the mounting member 35. When the mounting member 35 in this case is made of a hollow body such as a pipe or a grooved member, the internal space of the hollow body may be used as a wiring space for the light emitting diode 36. The light generating means 31 is arranged in the light reflecting body 11 in a reverse (backward) posture such that the light generating portion 34 side to which the light emitting diode 36 is attached faces the inner back of the light reflecting body 11. By fixing the end of each mounting member 35 to the peripheral wall of the light reflector 11, it is held in the light reflector 11. For fixing the mounting member 35, any one or more of well-known means (welding, adhesion, metal fittings, etc.) is adopted. In addition, when the end portion of each mounting member 35 penetrates the peripheral wall of the light reflector 11, a well-known fastener is provided to the protruding end portion of each mounting member 35. The light generating means 31 also includes a battery-powered one, a commercial power-powered one, and one in which both of them can be freely switched. Among these, in the case of using a commercial power supply, as is well known, in addition to means for rectifying alternating current and connecting resistors in series to limit current and performing phase control, the following means can also be used. It connects a light emitting diode 36 to an AC power supply via a rectifying diode / semiconductor switch, switches on the semiconductor switch at a predetermined current of an AC half wave or less, and allows a current to flow through the light emitting diode 36. When a battery for the light generating means 31 is installed, a battery housing portion that can be opened and closed from the outside is provided on the outer surface of the light reflector 11, the substrate member 32, or the inner surface of the light reflector 11.

Regarding the two transparent bodies 21 and 22, as shown in FIGS. 1B and 1C, one transparent body 22 is applied to the inner inner part of the light reflector 11 and fixed there, and the other transparent body 22 is fixed there. The transparent body 21 is attached to the substrate member 32 of the light generating means 31. Regarding the fixing and attachment of the transparent bodies 21 and 22 in this way, an adhesive is used as an example, and a metal fitting is used as another example. The metal fitting in the latter case may penetrate not only the light-transmitting space 15 and the substrate member 32 but also the transparent body 21. In such a case, through holes may be formed in advance at predetermined positions of the transparent bodies 21 and 22.

Thus, space remains in the light reflector 11 after the transparent bodies 21 and 22 and the light generating means are equipped. This remaining space becomes the light-transmitting space 15 in the light reflector 11. Then, the light generated in the light reflector 11 goes out of the light reflector 11 from the light passing surface 13 or the light leaking portion 16 covered with the light transmitting material 14, and at that time, these lights are emitted. It passes through the light-transmitting space 15 in the light reflector 11.

When the light generator according to the present invention comprises the ones illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is used as follows. That is, when the on / off control program stored in the storage device (ROM) 37 is executed, a predetermined control signal is output from the central processing unit (CPU) 37, and the control signal is input to the driver 41 via the interface 40. As a result, each full-color light emitting diode 36 in the light generating unit 34 in the light reflector 11 is on / off controlled. Further, each full-color light emitting diode 36 has a resistance value (set resistance value) of each resistance R1 to R3, R4 to R6, R7 to R9 connected to each of the red light emitting diode 36R, the green light emitting diode 36G, and the blue light emitting diode 36B. ), The full-color light emitting diode 36 emits light of a predetermined color tone. Specifically, when the control program is executed, the color tone and brightness at the time of light emission are maintained in a predetermined state. The color tone and brightness of the light in this case can be continuously changed or changed at regular intervals depending on the setting of the control program, or can be maintained in a constant state. Of course, the light emitting state at this time can be changed or kept in an arbitrary constant state by a manual adjustment operation.

In the above-mentioned light reflector 11, the LED light emitted from each full-color light emitting diode 36 of the light generating unit 34 is reflected by the light reflecting surface 12 or reflected, refracted, transmitted by the transparent bodies 21 and 22 and the like. It emits light to the outside of the light reflector 11 and irradiates the user. And, as mentioned above, the user who experiences the LED irradiation light from the light generator through a part or all of the five senses of the body can heal psychiatrically, physiologically and psychologically by the LED irradiation light. Will be received.
