Returning to FIG. 11, the microphone 75 collects the voice of the user around the lighting device X, converts the collected voice into a voice signal, and outputs the voice signal.
The voice recognition unit 721 is composed of a CPU, a working RAM, and the like. When a voice signal is input from the microphone 75, the voice recognition unit 721 performs the following operations.
That is, the voice recognition unit 721 converts the user's voice included in the input voice signal into text. For speech recognition, a known acoustic analysis method that cuts out phonemes from a speech signal and compares them with an acoustic model can be used.
Next, the voice recognition unit 721 collates the recognized voice text with the wake-up word registered in the word table. For example, the voice recognition unit 721 collates the recognized voice text and the wakeup word from the viewpoint of whether or not they are the same in appearance.
When the recognized voice text matches the wake-up word, that is, when the wake-up word can be extracted from the voice text, the voice recognition unit 721 subsequently identifies the voice signal input from the microphone 75 as a user's instruction. .. The voice included in the voice signal identified as the user's instruction is converted into text, and the text and a plurality of control words shown in the word table are collated in the same manner as in the case of a wakeup word.
When the recognized voice text matches any of a plurality of control words, that is, when the control word can be extracted from the voice text, the voice recognition unit 721 transmits the control signal indicating the control word to the lighting control unit 425 of the power supply circuit 42. Output. In response to this, the lighting control unit 425 instructs the lighting power generation unit 423 of the duty ratio corresponding to the control signal.
The timer 723 measures the time elapsed since the voice recognition unit 721 extracted the wakeup word (hereinafter, may be referred to as “elapsed time”) in response to a command from the CPU.
The storage unit 725 includes a ROM. In addition to the above-mentioned word table, the storage unit 725 stores a computer program for the voice recognition unit 721 to operate.

As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the voice recognition circuit 72 makes the end face of the voice board 74 abut on the second protruding portion 465b of the voice board support positioning portion 465 of the power base 46 so that the voice of the power base 46 comes into contact with the voice. The through hole 74a of the audio substrate 74 is fitted into the second protruding portion 464b of the substrate support positioning portion 464. Along with this, the end portion of the audio board 74 is locked by the audio board fixing portion 466 of the power supply base 46. As a result, it is fixed to the power supply base 46.

(4-2) Microphone The microphone 75 is provided at two places, for example, the power supply case 41. Microphones 75 are provided at both ends of the power supply case 41 in the longitudinal direction. As a result, the user's voice can be input (collected) in a wide range. Further, the noise sound can be canceled by performing arithmetic processing such as taking a difference between the voice signals collected by the two microphones 75.
The lead wire 753 of the microphone 75 is connected to the connector 731 of the audio board 74. The connector 731 is provided near the end on the opposite side of the power supply board 44. As a result, the wiring of the lead wire 753 can be facilitated.
As shown in FIG. 10, the microphone 75 is mounted on the power supply case 41 by being fitted to the microphone accommodating portion 474 of the power supply cover 47 in a state of being supported by the microphone support portion 467 (see FIG. 9) of the power supply base 46. Will be done.
Since the microphone 75 is arranged on the cover side plate portion 471 of the power supply cover 47, the microphone 75 is separated from the power supply circuit 42 and the voice recognition circuit 72. As a result, it is possible to prevent noise sound emitted from electronic components such as the transformer 432, the capacitor 431, and the switching element 433 (see FIG. 9) constituting the power supply circuit 42 from being transmitted to the microphone 75. In particular, when only one microphone 75 is provided, the noise sound as described above cannot be canceled, so it is effective to provide the microphone 75 at a position away from the power supply circuit 42.
Specifically, it is preferably supported by the microphone support portion 467A shown in FIG. In FIG. 9, the reference numerals of the microphones are "467A" and "467B" so that the position of the microphone support portion 467A can be clearly specified.
As shown in FIG. 10, the microphone 75 is mounted with the sound collecting surface 751 facing the outside of the power supply case 41. As a result, it is possible to reduce the influence of noise from the electronic component 43 in the power supply case 41.
The microphone 75 is fixed to the microphone support portion 467 of the power supply cover 47 with an elastic adhesive 77. The elastic adhesive 77 is an adhesive that has elasticity even at room temperature, such as a rubber-based adhesive or a polyolefin-based adhesive, and is supplied (coated) by hot melt or the like. As a result, the elastic adhesive 77 absorbs the vibration of the installation surface and the lighting device X, and the influence of the vibration of the power supply case 41 on the microphone 75 can be reduced.
In the state of being incorporated in the power supply case 41, the sound collecting surface 751 of the microphone 75 is located at the same position as the opening edge of the outer surface of the through hole 474a of the cover side plate main body portion 471a as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. ) Or located inside the opening edge. In other words, on the sound collecting surface 751, the downstream end in the gravity direction on which gravity acts passes through the upstream end in the gravity direction and is located on the virtual line parallel to the gravity direction or inside the power supply case 41 from the virtual line. As a result, it is possible to prevent dust from adhering to the sound collecting surface 751 of the microphone 75.
The microphone 75 is supported by the microphone support portion 467 so that the sound collecting surface 751 is vertical or face up. Here, the vertical direction is a direction parallel to the front and back directions, and the front side is a direction that moves to the inside of the power supply case 41 toward the front side. As a result, it is possible to prevent dust from adhering to the sound collecting surface of the microphone 75.

4. Control contents of the voice recognition unit The voice recognition circuit 72 has a step of determining whether or not the voice signal input to the microphone 75 is a wakeup word, and when the voice signal is a wakeup word, it is input within a predetermined time. It has a step of determining whether or not the voice signal is a control word. That is, the voice recognition circuit 72 is configured to receive the control word for a predetermined time after recognizing the wakeup word. As a result, within a predetermined time, a plurality of control words can be accepted without inputting a wakeup word again, and convenience can be improved.
(1) Example 1
FIG. 12 is a flowchart of the voice recognition unit 721 according to the present embodiment.
In Example 1, the starting point of the predetermined time is the time of recognition (extraction) of the wakeup word.
The voice recognition unit 721 waits until a voice signal is input from the microphone 75 (N in step S101). When the voice signal is input (Y in step S101), the voice of the input voice signal is converted into text, and an attempt is made to extract a wakeup word from the text of the voice (step S102). If it can be extracted (Y in step S103), the elapsed time is reset and the measurement of the elapsed time is started (step S104). If the wakeup word cannot be extracted (N in step S103), it waits until the voice signal is input again.
When a voice signal is continuously input from the microphone 75 after extracting the wake-up word (Y in step S105), the voice recognition unit 721 identifies the input voice signal as a user's instruction and of the voice signal. Attempts to extract the control word from the voice text (step S106). If it can be extracted (Y in step S107), a control signal is generated and the generated control signal is given to the power supply circuit 42 (step S108).
The voice recognition unit 721 performs the processes from step S105 to step S108 described above until the elapsed time reaches a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) (N in step S109).

(2) Example 2
In Example 1, the elapsed time is the time elapsed since the voice recognition unit 721 extracted the wakeup word. However, further, the time elapsed since the voice recognition unit 721 extracts the control word may be used as the elapsed time. That is, in Example 2, the starting point of the predetermined time is the time of recognition (extraction) of the control word. As a result, the user illuminates the lighting device X without producing the wake-up word voice until a predetermined time elapses (that is, until the elapsed time reaches a predetermined time) after giving an instruction to the lighting device X. Instructions can be given to device X.
The flowchart of the voice recognition unit 721 at this time is shown in FIG.
The voice recognition unit 721 performs the same processing as in steps S101 to S104 described above. That is, when the voice signal is input, the wakeup word is extracted based on the voice signal, the elapsed time is reset, and measurement is started (steps S201 to S204).
The voice recognition unit 721 subsequently performs the same processing as in steps S105 to S108 described above. That is, when an audio signal is input after extracting the wakeup word, the control word is extracted based on the audio signal, a control signal is generated, and the control signal is given to the power supply circuit 42 (steps S205 to S208).
When the voice recognition unit 721 gives the control signal to the power supply circuit 42 (step S208), the voice recognition unit 721 resets the elapsed time and starts measuring the elapsed time (step S209). Then, the processes of steps S205 to S209 described above are performed until the elapsed time reaches a predetermined time (N in step S210).
The elapsed time in step S209 may be measured before the control signal is given to the power supply circuit 42.
<Second Embodiment>
In the first embodiment, the voice recognition unit 7 does not include a voice output body, but may include a voice output body. The speaker, which is an example of the audio output body, can be implemented by arranging the speaker in the power supply unit 4, for example.
1. 1. Example 1
The speech recognition circuit may output a first alert sound (for example, a beep) to the speaker each time a wake-up word or a control word is extracted from the speech text. As a result, it is possible to notify the user that the voice recognition unit has been able to extract the wake-up word or the like, that is, that the lighting device X has been able to recognize the user's voice.
Specifically, for example, in FIG. 12, the first alert sound may be output to the speaker after the wake-up word in step S203 is extracted or the control word in S207 is extracted.

2. 2. Example 2
When the voice recognition circuit does not extract the control word by the time the elapsed time reaches a predetermined time, the voice recognition unit makes a second alert sound (for example, a beeping sound) different from the first alert sound. It may be output to a speaker. As a result, it is possible to notify the user that the voice recognition unit could not extract the control word, that is, the lighting device X could not recognize the voice of the user's instruction, and instructed the lighting device X again. Can be done by the user.
The flowchart of the voice recognition unit 721 at this time is shown in FIG.
Similar to steps S101 to S104 described above, the voice recognition unit 721 extracts a wakeup word based on the voice signal when the voice signal is input, resets the elapsed time, and starts measuring (the elapsed time is reset and measured). Steps S301-S304).
When the voice recognition unit 721 resets the elapsed time and starts measuring the elapsed time (step S304), the control word recognition flag indicating that the control word has been extracted is set to off (that is, "0"). (Step S305).
Subsequently, the voice recognition unit 721 extracts a control word based on the voice signal when a voice signal is input after extracting the wake-up word, and generates a control signal, as in steps S105 to S108 described above. Is given to the power supply circuit 42 (steps S306 to S309).
When the voice recognition unit 721 gives the control signal to the power supply circuit 42 (step S309), the voice recognition unit 721 sets the control word recognition flag to on (that is, “1”) (step S310). If extraction is not possible (N in step S308), the control word recognition flag remains off.
The voice recognition unit 721 performs the processes of steps S306 to S310 described above until the elapsed time reaches a predetermined time (N in step S311). When the elapsed time reaches a predetermined time (Y in step S311) and the control word recognition flag is off (Y in step S312), a second alert sound is output to the speaker (step S313).

3. 3. Example 3
The voice recognition circuit has a third alert sound (for example, a beeping sound) that is different from the first alert sound and the second alert sound when the user's instruction is an instruction that the lighting device X cannot make. ) May be output to the speaker.
For example, when an instruction is given to the lighting device X that is already lit, or when the upper limit (or lower limit) at which the amount of light or the color temperature can be adjusted is reached, the lighting device X is further raised (or lowered). By outputting a third alert sound from the speaker, such as when an instruction is given, the user can be notified that the instruction is incorrect, and such an incorrect instruction can be given to the user. You can prevent it from being done many times.

The flowchart of the voice recognition unit 721 at this time is shown in FIG.
Here, the lighting control unit 425 (see FIG. 11) is to that effect (that is, when the lighting power generation unit 423 cannot perform dimming lighting or toning lighting based on the output duty ratio. A failure signal indicating that dimming and lighting could not be performed is given to the voice recognition circuit 72 (voice recognition unit 721).
The voice recognition unit 721 performs the same processing as in steps S101 to S108 described above (steps S401 to S408).
When the voice recognition unit 721 receives a failure signal from the power supply circuit 42 (lighting control unit 425) after giving the control signal to the power supply circuit 42 (step S408) (Y in step S409), the voice recognition unit 721 makes a third alert sound. Is output to the speaker (step S410). Then, the processes of steps S405 to S410 described above are performed until the elapsed time reaches a predetermined time (N in step S411).

Here, the lighting control unit 425 sends a failure signal indicating that when the lighting power generation unit 423 cannot perform dimming lighting or toning lighting based on the output duty ratio, the voice recognition circuit 72. (Voice recognition unit 721), but when dimming or toning lighting cannot be performed, the third alert sound is output to the speaker by itself without giving a failure signal to the voice recognition circuit 72. May be good.

3. 3. Instrument body (1) Base resin material The base resin material 2 was an integrally molded product made of a resin material, but it may be assembled after the covered tubular portion and the flat portion are formed as separate bodies. The structure may be such that the base member is attached to the adapter provided with the hook blade.
(1-1) Light Source Holding Unit The flat portion 23, which is an example of the light source holding portion, has recessed portions 231, 232, and 233, but may have another structure as long as the flat portion can be reinforced. However, it may have another shape, or may not have a recessed portion if it is not necessary to reinforce it.
The flat portion 23, which is an example of the light source holding portion, has a portion parallel to the horizontal direction, but may have a portion inclined with respect to the horizontal direction, or is horizontal to the portion parallel to the horizontal direction. It may have both a portion that is inclined with respect to a direction.

(1-2) Mounting member holding portion The covered tubular portion 21, which is an example of the mounting member holding portion, has a hooking blade 49 attached to the recessed region 213a, but is hooked to another portion without providing the recessed region. A blade 49 may be attached.
The mounting member holding portion is composed of a covered tubular portion 21 as an example. For example, the mounting member holding portion is composed of a plate-shaped portion corresponding to the lid portion 213 of the covered tubular portion 21 and has a covered tubular portion. As a structure in which the tubular portion corresponding to the tubular portion 211 of 21 is included in the flat portion (23) which is an example of the light source holding portion (including the deformation described in the above “(1-1) light source holding portion”).

(1-4) Flat portion The shape of the flat portion 23 is a circular shape when viewed from the front side, but may be another shape such as a square or a rectangle.
A part of the back surface of the flat portion 23 is a power supply holding portion for holding the power supply unit 4, but a part of the front surface of the flat portion may be a power supply holding portion for holding the power supply unit.
When the lighting device does not include a power supply unit (such as a separate structure of the power supply unit), the inner recessed portion 231 and the outer recessed portion 232 of the flat portion 23 may have an annular shape as a whole.
(1-5) Groove-shaped portion The base resin material 2 has a groove-shaped portion 25, but does not have to have a groove-shaped portion. In this case, it can be carried out by engaging the protective cover side mounting portion 54 and the translucent cover side mounting portion 813 on the front side of the flat portion 23.

(2) Light Source Unit The shape of the light source unit 3 is circular when viewed from the front side, but may be another shape such as a square or a rectangle according to the shape of the lighting device. The light source unit 3 includes three light source modules 31A, 31B, and 31C, but may be composed of one, two, or four or more light source modules.
The light source module 31 includes a wiring body 35 corresponding to a substrate by a plurality of separated conductive pieces 37, but instead of the wiring body, a substrate made of an insulating material and having a wiring pattern may be provided.
Although the light source unit 3 includes the LED element 33, another light emitting element may be provided.

(3) Power Supply Unit The power supply unit 4 accommodates a power supply board 44 on which a plurality of electronic components (43) constituting the power supply circuit 42 are mounted in the power supply case 41. For example, the power supply board is made of a base resin material. The power supply board may be covered with a power supply cover. In this case, the voice input body may be provided on the power supply cover, may be provided on another unit, for example, a light source unit, or the voice input body may be provided on a case dedicated to the voice recognition unit provided independently of the power supply case. It may be provided.
The power supply board 44 may be one or more. For example, a board on which the dimming circuit is mounted and a board on which the toning circuit is mounted may be provided separately from the power supply board. In the electrical connection between the power supply unit 4 and the light source unit 3, the conductive pin 443 that inserts the through hole 234a (see FIG. 6) of the base resin material 2 from the power supply board 44 is brought into contact with the wiring body (or substrate) of the light source unit 3. However, for example, the power supply board and the connectors provided on the wiring body (or board) may be connected by a cable.

(4) Voice recognition unit (4-1) The voice recognition unit 7 includes two voice input bodies 75, but may be one or three or more.
(4-2) The voice recognition unit 7 includes a voice board 74 separately from the power supply board 44 of the power supply circuit 42. For example, an electronic component for the voice recognition unit may be mounted on the power supply board. On the contrary, a part of the power supply circuit, for example, a lighting control unit may be mounted on the audio board.
(4-3) Although the voice input body 75 of the voice recognition unit 7 is provided in the power supply case 41, it may be provided in another member such as a base resin material or a light source unit.
(4-4) The voice recognition unit 721 collated the wake-up word and the control word with the recognized voice text from the viewpoint of whether or not they are the same in appearance.
However, it may be collated from the viewpoint of whether or not the recognized voice text and the wakeup word are partially common, and the idea of the recognized voice text and the concept such as the wakeup word are common. It may be collated from the viewpoint of whether or not.
(4-5) In addition to the words described in the present embodiment, the control word may include, for example, a word indicating how much the amount of light and the color temperature change. Then, the voice recognition unit 721 may generate a control signal by using the control word.
For example, when the voice recognition unit 721 can extract the control words "90%" and "Akaruku" from the voice text, the voice recognition unit 721 may give a control signal to the lighting control unit 425 to make the amount of light 90% of the maximum.

(4-6) After extracting the wakeup word, the voice recognition unit 721 attempts to extract the control word from the voice signal when the voice signal is input (Y in step S105 of FIG. 12). However, you may try to extract not only the control word but also the wakeup word.
At this time, if the wakeup word can be extracted instead of the control word, the elapsed time may be reset and the elapsed time measurement may be started (returning to step S104 to continue the process), and the control word is used. The same processing as in the case where extraction is not possible (N in step S107) may be performed, or a predetermined alert sound or the like may be output from the speaker in order to make the user give an instruction again.

(4-7) The voice recognition unit 721 converts the voice signal into text when recognizing the voice, but for example, the input voice signal may be added to discriminate the tone of the voice. In this case, when the determined voice tone and the voice tone of the user registered in the lighting device X (hereinafter, referred to as “registered user”) match, the voice (that is, the tone is discriminated). The text of the voice) may be collated with the wakeup word or the like.
For example, the voice recognition unit 721 discriminates the voice tone of the input voice signal by using a known frequency analysis method such as Fourier transform, and the discriminated voice tone and the discriminated voice tone are stored in advance in the storage unit 434. It can be carried out by collating the tone of the voice of the registered user, and when both match, the text of the voice and the wakeup word or the like are collated.

(4-8) In Example 1 of the second embodiment, the voice recognition unit 721 causes the speaker to output the first alert sound each time a wakeup word or the like is extracted. However, instead of the first alert sound, the voice of the text from which the wake-up word or the like is extracted may be output to the speaker. That is, the user's voice may be returned as a parrot.
For example, each time the voice recognition unit 721 extracts a wakeup word or the like from the voice text of the input voice signal, the voice recognition unit 721 converts the voice text into voice using a known technique (for example, waveform connection synthesis). It can be carried out by outputting to a speaker.
Further, the extracted wakeup word or the like may be converted (stored) into voice in advance and output.

(4-9) In Example 3 of the second embodiment, the voice recognition unit 721 outputs a third alert sound when an instruction that the lighting device X cannot perform is given. Instead of the alert sound of, the voice of the instruction may be output to the speaker, or the voice of the instruction plus a negative voice such as "cannot be" may be output to the speaker.

(5) Protective Cover The protective cover 5 has an inner tubular portion 52 and an outer tubular portion 53 extending in the central axis direction, and the inner tubular portion 52 is attached to the covered tubular portion 21 of the base resin material 2 and the outer tubular portion. 53 is fixed to the base resin material 2 in a state of being fitted to the groove-shaped portion 25 of the base resin material 2, respectively.
However, for example, the protective cover has an inner flange portion protruding inward in the radial direction from the inner peripheral edge of the annular bulging portion 51 and a radial outer side from the outer peripheral edge of the annular bulging portion 51. It may be fixed to the base resin material in a state of having an outer flange portion overhanging, the inner flange portion abutting on the inner peripheral portion of the flat portion, and the outer flange portion abutting on the outer peripheral portion of the flat portion. Further, as long as the annular bulging portion 51 has a structure that can be directly fixed to the base resin material 2, the protective cover may have a structure that does not have the inner tubular portion 52 and / or the outer tubular portion 53.
The annular bulging portion 51 has a recessed portion 511 that supports from the front side the portions adjacent (opposing) to each other in the circumferential direction of the three light source modules 31A, 31B, and 31C, but the light source unit is provided with another structure. As long as it can be pressed against the flat portion, it does not have to have the recessed portion.
The fixing portion 56 of the protective cover 5 for fixing the protective cover 5 to the base resin material 2 with screws is provided in a state of being adjacent (connected) to the protective cover side mounting portion 54 in the circumferential direction, but is provided on the protective cover side. It may be provided so as to be separated from the mounting portion 54 in the circumferential direction. In this case, the screw hole portion 255 of the base resin material 2 also needs to be provided at a portion corresponding to the fixing portion 56.
