The present invention relates to an illumination control system for an LED illumination device for controlling illumination operation.

  In recent years, LED lighting devices using light emitting diodes as light sources have been proposed as lighting fixtures instead of conventional incandescent bulbs and fluorescent lamps in order to meet demands for energy saving and environmental load reduction. This LED lighting device has features that are not found in conventional lighting devices such as long life, high reliability, low power consumption, low heat generation, restraint response, direct current low voltage drive, etc. It is expected to spread. Here, on / off operation control of the lighting fixture is performed by an operation switch disposed on an indoor wall surface or the like. In addition, as a lighting fixture operation control, card control and sensor control that turn on the lighting fixture when the user enters the room (sensor turns off) when the user enters the room, and automatically detect the brightness of the lighting space.

Sometimes. Although not applied to the LED lighting device, it is an invention applied to a general lighting device such as a fluorescent lamp, and as an invention related to the zoning control as described above, for example, described in Patent Document 1 There is technology.

In the case where the address identification function is not realized by the power supply control device 31 in the power supply side device 30, it is preferable to use a switching hub.

<Power supply device and Ethernet switch>
As described above, the power supply side device 30 is connected to the power supply device 10 via the power supply line 15, while being connected to the Ethernet switch 20 via the LAN cable 25 and also to the power reception side via the LAN cable 35.

The LAN cable 35 is responsible for power supply along with data transmission and reception from the power supply side device 30 to the power reception side device 40. Therefore, in order to secure the electrical capacity at the time of power supply and maintain safety and security, category 6 (CAT6) of the Ethernet standard is used as the LAN cable 35. The LAN cable 35 is a LAN cable equivalent to CAT6, for example, enhanced category 6 (CAT6e) or category 6A (CAT6A) as long as the electrical capacity during power feeding can be secured and safety and security can be maintained.

That is, the power supply side device 30 has the internal configuration shown in FIG. Note that only one power supply control device 31 is built in the power supply side device 30, and power is supplied (and power supply control) to each of the maximum connections (maximum number of LAN ports) of the LAN cables 25 and 35 as described above. It is the composition which performs.

  The Ethernet switch 20 according to the present embodiment performs communication of 10 megabit Ethernet (10BASE-T) or 100 megabit Ethernet (100BASE-T2), and does not perform communication of Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T or the like). . The Ethernet switch 20 corresponds to the data transmission / reception twisted pair wires C1, C2 and the twisted pair wires C3, C6 among the twisted pair wires of the LAN cable 25 connected to each LAN port, respectively. A pulse transformer (also referred to as an “insulating transformer”) 21 is provided. The Ethernet switch 20 includes a chip for realizing the functions of PHY (physical layer) and MAC (media access control). The pulse transformer 21 is connected to the twisted pair wires C1, C2 and the twisted pair wires C3, C6 among the eight pins of the RJ-45 connector on the proximal end side of the LAN cable 25 inserted into the LAN port of the Ethernet switch 20. Each is provided correspondingly. Data and control signals from the terminal control device 70 are transmitted and received via the pulse transformer 21 of the Ethernet switch 20 and the twisted pair wires C1 and C2 and the twisted pair wires C3 and C6 as signal pairs of the LAN cable 25. Is done. Note that the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 as a spare pair of the LAN cable 25 are not in use and are not involved in data transmission / reception.

  On the other hand, the power supply side device 30 has an inlet port and an outlet port made up of LAN ports corresponding to the LAN port of the Ethernet switch 20, and an RJ-45 connector on the tip side of the LAN cable 25 is inserted into the inlet port. An RJ-45 connector on the proximal end side of the LAN cable 35 is inserted into the outlet port. The power supply side device 30 includes the twisted pair wires C1 and C2 and the twisted pair wires C3 and C6 (from the Ethernet switch 20) among the eight pins of the RJ-45 connector of the LAN cable 25 attached to the inlet port. The data and control signal via are connected to the twisted pair wires C1, C2 and the twisted pair wires C3, C6 as signal pairs among the eight pins of the RJ-45 connector of the LAN cable 35 inserted into the outlet port ( (Via an internal relay route). Since the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 of the LAN cable 25 are spare pairs, they are connected to the input port of the power supply side device 30 (via corresponding pins of the RJ-45 connector). However, input / output is not performed between the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 of the LAN cable 25 and the power supply side device 30.

<Power supply control device>
The power supply side device 30 includes a power supply control device 31. The power feeding control device 31 supplies the power receiving side device 40 with a predetermined voltage value via the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 as a spare pair of the LAN cable 35 attached to the outlet port of the power feeding side device 30. Control is performed to supply DC power of a predetermined current value. That is, in this case, the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 as a spare pair of the LAN cable 35 function as power supply pairs that supply power. The power supply control device 31 can also have the same configuration as the control part of the IEEE 802.3af or IEEE 802.3at standard PSE, and the power supply control device 31 detects the power receiving side device 40 (although it has an arbitrary configuration). It is also possible to adopt a configuration that controls the identification of the type of the detected power receiving side device 40, the feeding of power to the detected power receiving side device 40, the interruption of power feeding to the power receiving side device 40, and the like. As described above, identification of the power receiving device 40 that is the destination of the control signal from the terminal control device 70 (identification operation based on the address information) can also be performed by the Ethernet switch 20 including a switching hub. When the identification operation is performed by the power supply control device 31, the identification operation of the power receiving side device 40 by the Ethernet switch 20 is not necessary. In this case, a repeater hub can be used instead of the Ethernet switch 20 formed of a switching hub. On the other hand, when the operation of identifying the power receiving side device 40 is performed by the Ethernet switch 20, the operation of identifying the power receiving side device 40 by the power feeding control device 31 (and the corresponding configuration) can be omitted. Specifically, the power supply control device 31 includes a main control unit including a central processing unit (CPU), a voltage control unit (MOSFET, etc.), a voltage detection unit (voltage detection resistor, etc.), a current detection unit (current detection resistor, etc.). Etc.), and the voltage value of the voltage control unit is changed to a voltage value required to execute each of the detection, identification, power supply, and power supply cutoff operations of the power receiving side device 40 under the control of the main control unit. Then, each operation of the detection, identification (as an arbitrary configuration), power supply, and power supply cutoff is executed. In addition, the power supply control device 31 may include a hot swap (hot-wire insertion / extraction) unit that enables the LAN cables 25 and 35 to be attached and detached while the power is turned on. Then, the power supply control device 31 detects the power receiving side device 40 according to a command from the terminal control device 70, and then converts the DC power of the predetermined current value with the predetermined voltage value from the power supply device 10 to the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 (currents). The power is supplied to the power receiving side device 40 via the outgoing path) and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 (current return path). The power supply control device 31 uses the same hardware configuration (CPU, memory, I / O, etc.) as the microcomputer control device (if necessary, using a predetermined built-in control program), and Each of the predetermined functions is realized.

  The configuration of the power supply side device 30 is a configuration of a PSE of option B (a type that supplies power to a spare pair) of a midspan type (a type that is connected to a repeater hub or a switching hub) defined by IEEE 802.3af or IEEE 802.3at. Correspondingly, the same function as the PSE is exhibited. The combination of the Ethernet switch 20 and the power feeding side device 30 constitutes the signal / power transmission / reception device of the first embodiment. Here, in PoE defined by IEEE802.3af or IEEE802.3at, the operating voltage of PSE is within the range of 44 to 57V (DC), and is normally set to 48V (DC). The maximum current generated is 350 to 400 mA. This is because the LAN cable may be damaged by heat generated by its own parasitic resistance (about 20Ω for each twisted pair) unless the current is at this level. Therefore, the power by the conventional PSE is 44V × 0.35A = 15.4W at the minimum and 57V × 0.4A = 22.8W at the maximum. On the other hand, in the first embodiment, the DC power supplied from the power supply apparatus 10 to the power supply side apparatus 30 is set to a voltage value of 24 V and a current value of 1.6 A (power value is 38 W). The DC power supplied from the power feeding control device 31 of the power feeding side device 30 to the power receiving side device 40 is also DC power (power value 38 W) having a voltage value of 24 V and a current value of 1.6 A. Therefore, in the first embodiment, the LAN cable 35 of CAT6 is used as the LAN cable 35 that supplies power (in addition to data transmission / reception) from the power supply side device 30 to the power reception side device 40 so as to withstand large-capacity current transmission.

(3) By connecting various sensors to the main control unit 51 of the power reception control device 50, the LED illumination device 60 is caused to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode according to detection signals from the various sensors. For example, a human body sensor (comprising an infrared sensor or the like) detects entry and exit of a human body into a predetermined illumination space (such as a room), and automatically turns on or off the LED illumination device. Alternatively, a plurality of sensors themselves are arranged in a predetermined illumination space, and the light emission mode of the LED illumination device is changed according to the movement position of the human body (for example, only the LED illumination device at the position where the human body exists is turned on, The illuminance of the LED illumination device at the position is increased as compared with other LED illumination devices, or the corresponding LED illumination devices 60 are sequentially turned on according to the movement of the human body). Alternatively, a specific sound (a person's voice, a door opening / closing sound when entering or leaving the room) in a predetermined lighting space (room or the like) is detected by a sound sensor, and the LED lighting device is automatically turned on or off. Alternatively, the seismic sensor or P wave sensor that detects the P wave (initial tremor) of the seismic wave detects the initial tremor during an earthquake and immediately after the occurrence of the earthquake (before the arrival of the main motion) ) Turn on the LED lighting device in the lighting space immediately (if it is turned off at bedtime, etc.) or change the lighting mode (if it is already turned on) (for example, blinking) Thus, the evacuation / evacuation operation of people in the lighting space is promoted.

  The DC / DC boosting unit 56 is required to use the predetermined DC voltage (24V) of the DC power transmitted from the power supply control device 31 for the optimal lighting operation (lighting operation with the maximum luminous efficiency) of the LED lighting device 60. The voltage is boosted to a DC voltage having a predetermined voltage value, and is constituted by a DC / DC converter for boosting. For example, in the case of a novel LED lighting device 60 originally developed by the applicant of the present application, a predetermined voltage value required for an optimal lighting operation (lighting operation at the maximum light emission efficiency) is typically 43V to 48V. In this case, the DC / DC boosting unit 56 boosts the power supply voltage (24V) from the power supply control device 31 to a predetermined voltage value (for example, 43V) within the range. In addition, the constant current control unit 57 applies the direct current boosted by the DC / DC boosting unit 56 to the optimal lighting operation (the lighting operation at the maximum light emission efficiency of the LED lighting device 60, or the light control unit 54 and the lighting mode). The control unit 55 performs control so that a constant current of a predetermined current value required for a lighting operation in a predetermined illumination mode) is obtained, by a constant current control regulator, a constant current control DC / DC converter, or the like. Composed. For example, in the case of a dimming operation, the current value by the constant current control unit 57 naturally increases or decreases during the dimming operation by the dimming unit 54, but after obtaining a constant dimming state, A constant current according to the dimming state. For example, in the case of the novel LED lighting device 60 originally developed by the applicant of the present application, the predetermined current value required for the optimal lighting operation (lighting operation at the maximum luminous efficiency) is typically 420 mA to 840 mA. In this case, the constant current control unit 57 uses the DC current after boosting from the DC / DC boosting unit 56 as a constant current having a predetermined current value (eg, 420 mA) within the range. Control as follows. Therefore, the power value of the DC power output from the power reception control device 50 is, for example, 43V × 0.42A = about 18W.

  Here, the main control unit 51 determines an ON / OFF command for the ON / OFF unit 53 and a predetermined value for the dimming unit 54 based on a control signal from the terminal control device 70 (input via the Ethernet controller 21). Dimming control command and a predetermined lighting control command to the lighting mode control unit 55 are output. The boosting operation by the DC / DC boosting unit 56 and the constant current control operation by the constant current control unit 57 are started and executed for the first time when there is a switch-on operation by the ON / OFF unit 53. Therefore, only when there is a switch-on operation by the ON / OFF unit 53, a predetermined voltage value and a predetermined current value (for LED lighting) from the constant current control unit 57 to the LED lighting device 60 via the feeder line 65 are detected. ) DC current is fed. On the other hand, when there is a switch-off operation by the ON / OFF unit 53, a direct current of a predetermined voltage value and a predetermined current value (for LED lighting) from the constant current control unit 57 to the LED lighting device 60 via the feeder line 65. Is stopped (cut off). Note that the power reception control device 50 uses the same hardware configuration (CPU, memory, I / O, etc.) as the microcomputer control device, and uses a predetermined built-in control program or firmware. Each predetermined function is realized. Further, the main control unit 51 acquires the address information (of the power reception control device 50 incorporating the main control unit 51) read from the address unit 52, and in a predetermined operation mode individually assigned to the address information, The corresponding LED lighting device 60 can be controlled to be illuminated. In this case, an illumination control program for executing a control procedure according to the power reception control device 50 of each individual power reception side device 40, 140, 170 is installed in the terminal control device 70, and a desired LED is obtained by the illumination control program. Individual lighting control can also be executed for each of the power receiving devices 40, 140, and 170 to which the lighting device 60 is connected.

  The configuration of the power receiving side device 40 corresponds to the configuration of the PD defined by IEEE 802.3af or IEEE 802.3at, but the PD does not have the configuration (control structure) like the power receiving control device 50, and this The power receiving side device 40 (particularly, the power receiving control device 50) of the embodiment is completely new and unusable (provides unique operational effects unpredictable from the prior art).

The power receiving side device 40 is connected to the outlet port 32 of the power feeding side device 30 via the LAN cable 35.

Embodiment 2
As shown in FIG. 7, the illumination control system of the LED illumination device according to the second embodiment has substantially the same configuration as the illumination control system of the LED illumination device according to the first embodiment. The difference from Embodiment 1 is that the LED lighting devices 60 are electrically connected in parallel. In the example of FIG. 7, the signal / power transmission / reception device has a configuration in which the Ethernet switch 20 and the power supply side device 30 are separately provided, similarly to the signal / power transmission / reception device of the example of FIG. 1. The signal / power transmission / reception device having the configuration according to the second modification shown in FIG. 4 or the signal / power transmission / reception device having the configuration according to the first modification shown in FIG. That is, the signal / power transmission / reception apparatus according to the second embodiment has the same configuration as the signal / power transmission / reception apparatus (including the first to third modifications) according to the first embodiment.

  FIG. 8 (using the second modification example as a signal / power transmission / reception apparatus) and FIG. 9 (using the second modification example as a signal / power transmission / reception apparatus) for the power receiving device 140. First, as shown in FIG. 8, similarly to the power receiving side device 40 of the first embodiment, the power receiving side device 140 is provided with a pulse transformer 41 corresponding to each LAN port and connected to the LAN port. The control signals from the twisted pair wires C1 and C2 and the twisted pair wires C3 and C6 as signal pairs of the LAN cable 35 are input / output. The power receiving side device 140 includes a power receiving control device 150 having the same configuration as that of the power receiving control device 50 according to the first embodiment, inputs a control signal from the pulse transformer 41, and serves as a power supply pair of the LAN cable 35. DC power from the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 is input. On the other hand, the power reception control device 150 electrically connects the two LED illumination devices 60 in parallel via the two pairs of power supply lines 65 to control the illumination of the two LED illumination devices 60.

Embodiment 3
As shown in FIG. 10, the illumination control system of the LED illumination device according to Embodiment 3 has substantially the same configuration as the illumination control system of the LED illumination device according to Embodiment 1, but the power supply side device 160 and the power reception system The configuration of the side device 170 is different from that of the first embodiment. Specifically, the power feeding side device 160 of the third embodiment transmits a control signal from the terminal control device 70 (similar to the pulse transformer 91 of the power feeding side device 90 of the second modification of the first embodiment). While including the pulse transformer 91, the DC power from the power supply control device 31 (similar to the power supply control device 31 of the first embodiment) is supplied to the twisted pair wires C4 and C5 and the twisted pair wires C7 and C8 as a spare pair. Instead, so-called phantom power feeding technology is used to transmit the signal via the twisted pair wires C1 and C2 and the twisted pair wires C3 and C6 as signal pairs. That is, the output of the DC power from the power supply control device 31 is electrically connected to the center tap 161 of the pulse transformer 91, a center tap 161, twisted pair as the signal to C1, C2 and Yotai lines C3, C6 Then, it is transmitted to the power receiving side device 170. In the phantom power feeding technology, a direct current is superimposed on the control signal and transmitted. However, even in this case, since the control signal is transmitted as a differential signal (so-called “differential signaling” technology), the direct current is There is no interference with the control signal, and it is possible to smoothly carry out the direct current electrical equipment and the transmission of the control signal. In this case, the configuration of the power supply side device 160 is an option A (type that supplies power to a signal pair) of the endpoint type (type integrated with a repeater hub or switching hub) defined by IEEE802.3af or IEEE802.3at. The same function as that of the PSE is exhibited. Note that the power supply side device (endpoint type) may be a power supply side device in which the AC / DC converter of the power supply device 10A is integrated.

  The power receiving side device 170 of the second embodiment incorporates the same pulse transformer 41 and power reception control device 50 as those of the power receiving side device 40 of the first embodiment, while the signal pair of the pulse transformer 41 of the power feeding side device 160 is a signal pair. In order to receive the direct current transmitted from the twisted pair wires C1 and C2 and the twisted pair wires C3 and C6, the center tap 171 of the pulse transformer 41 is electrically connected to the power reception control device 50, and the twisted pair wires C1 and C2 are connected. In addition, a DC current input to the pulse transformer 41 from the twisted pair wires C3 and C6 is input to the power reception control device 50 via the center tap 171. Note that the configuration and method of illumination control of the LED illumination device 60 by the power reception control device 50 are the same as those in the first embodiment.

  Here, the power receiving side device 170 of the second embodiment is configured to connect two LED lighting devices 60 in parallel and simultaneously supply power to the two LED lighting devices. The direct current power supplied to the LED lighting device 60 is twice the amount of current compared to the case of the first embodiment (when the power receiving side device 40 feeds power from one LED lighting device 60). That is, as described in the first embodiment, for example, when DC power having a voltage value of 43 V and a current value of 420 mA is supplied to each LED lighting device 60, as a whole (supplied to the two LED lighting devices 60. The total amount of DC power is 840 mA. The example shown in FIG. 9 is illustrated as a configuration in which two power reception control devices 50 are built in one power reception side device 140 and the two LED lighting devices 60 are controlled by the two power reception control devices 50. However, one power reception control device 50 may be built in one power reception side device 140, and the two LED lighting devices 60 may be controlled by the one power reception control device 50. In this case, one power reception control device 50 supplies DC power (for example, a current value of 420 mA) necessary for driving to the two LED lighting devices 60, respectively, as described in the first embodiment.

Although the typical example was demonstrated with reference to the said Embodiment 1-3 about the lighting control system of the LED lighting apparatus of this invention, according to the lighting control system of the LED lighting apparatus of this invention, it is as follows. Demonstrate unique actions and effects. That is, a large number of power receiving side devices 40, a single terminal control device 70 (ordinary PC, portable information terminal, etc.) via a single signal / power transmitting / receiving device (consisting of an Ethernet switch and a power feeding side device), 140 and 170 are connected, and one or more LED lighting devices 60 are connected to each of the power receiving side devices 40, 140 and 170, so that a large number of LED lighting devices 60 can be obtained by a single terminal control device 70. It can be turned on / off at the timing, or can emit light in a desired illumination mode. In particular, each power reception control device 50 that controls one (or a group of two or more) LED lighting devices 60 is provided with unique address information (such as a private IP address). The address information of a large number of power reception control devices 50 is individually identified by one terminal control device 70. For example, according to the arrangement position in the illumination space of the LED illumination device 60 connected to the power reception control device 50, It is also possible to control the illumination of the LED illumination device 60 at an individual arrangement position in an individual illumination mode. As such illumination control, for example, there is the illumination control described for the illumination mode control unit 55 of the first embodiment. That is, in the present invention, the lighting mode control unit 55 can execute a specific control procedure by causing the lighting mode control unit 55 to execute a predetermined control procedure by firmware installed in the power reception control device 50. In this case, the control is only performed for the LED lighting device connected to the power reception control device 50. On the other hand, when executing the illumination control that identifies the individual power reception control device 50 using the illumination control program installed in the terminal control device 70, all the LED illumination devices connected to the one terminal control device 70 are used. By controlling the lighting individually, group by group, or overall, lighting in various lighting modes can be performed, and by creating a lighting control program according to the desired lighting mode, The illumination mode is almost infinite.

  In addition, as described above, the construction of conventional lighting fixtures is limited to qualified personnel, but the lighting control system of the LED lighting device of the present invention is a direct current obtained by AC / DC conversion of AC power from a commercial AC power supply. In order to use electric power, it is only necessary to connect the AC / DC power supply apparatus 10A to a commercial AC power source, and it is not necessary to carry out wiring work for the commercial AC power source. That is, since the installation and installation change of the illumination control system of the LED lighting apparatus of the present invention corresponds to the so-called “light electrical work”, installation and installation change can be performed even by those other than qualified persons. . Minor electrical works include small bell transformers (limited to secondary voltage of 36V or less) used in electric bells, interphones, fire detectors, miniature bulbs, and other similar facilities. In addition, regarding the secondary side wiring work, it is also possible for unqualified persons (according to Article 1 of the Enforcement Ordinance of the Electrical Engineers Act) to work. And since the lighting control system of the LED lighting apparatus of the present invention satisfies these conditions, the installation work is possible even for a person who does not have a qualified electrician such as a carpenter as a minor electric work. is there.

That is, in this case, the main control unit of the power supply control device 31 of the power supply side device 30 receives the control signal (for each power reception side device 40) input from each LAN cable 25 of the Ethernet switch 20 as it is. A configuration may be adopted in which the power is output to the corresponding individual power receiving device 40 via the cable 35. In other words, control signals from the terminal control device 70 to the predetermined number of power receiving devices 40 are sent in parallel via the same number of LAN cables 25 as the power receiving devices 40 from the Ethernet switch 20 through the power feeding device 30. Are output individually to each of the predetermined number of power receiving side devices 40 in such a transmission manner.
