導光體Light guide

本發明與導光有關,特別是關於一種導光體,能夠透過增加其出光面與網點面之間的距離以及亂數分佈其網點之方式,來達成導光均勻及視覺美觀之效果。The invention relates to light guiding, in particular to a light guiding body, which can achieve the effect of uniform light guiding and visual appearance by increasing the distance between the light emitting surface and the dot surface and distributing the dots in a random number.

近年來,隨著光學領域之科技不斷進步,市場上已發展出各種具有不同導光功能的導光元件,可廣泛地應用於不同領域(例如電子產品、建築裝潢等領域)之需求。In recent years, with the continuous advancement of technology in the field of optics, various light guiding elements with different light guiding functions have been developed in the market, which can be widely applied to various fields (such as electronic products, architectural decoration and the like).

一般而言,傳統的導光元件除了包含必要的導光管(light guide)之外,還會額外加入擴散片及彩色濾光片。這是由於傳統的導光元件通常是利用網點分佈之方式來達成導光均勻之效果,若導光元件並未採用擴散片來均勻化光線,當使用者看到導光元件時,使用者將會直視網點,而無法達到視覺美觀之效果。In general, conventional light guiding elements include an additional diffuser and a color filter in addition to the necessary light guide. This is because the conventional light guiding element usually uses the distribution of the dot to achieve the effect of uniform light guiding. If the light guiding element does not use the diffusion sheet to homogenize the light, when the user sees the light guiding element, the user will It will look directly at the outlets and will not be able to achieve a visually pleasing effect.

因此,為了能夠達到導光均勻之效果,傳統的導光元件不得不額外增加擴散片的設置,卻也造成整個導光元件之結構變得較為複雜,其製造成本亦明顯增加,嚴重影響其市場競爭力。Therefore, in order to achieve the effect of uniform light guiding, the conventional light guiding element has to additionally increase the arrangement of the diffusion sheet, but also causes the structure of the entire light guiding element to become more complicated, and the manufacturing cost thereof also increases significantly, which seriously affects the market. Competitiveness.

因此,本發明提出一種導光體,以解決先前技術所遭遇到之上述種種問題。Accordingly, the present invention provides a light guide to solve the above problems encountered in the prior art.

本發明之一範疇在於提出一種導光體。導光體包含入光面、出光面及網點面。入光面具有平均入光方向。出光面具有平均出光方向。平均出光方向與平均入光方向不平行。網點面具有複數個網點。網點面於基準平面上的投影涵蓋出光面於基準平面上的投影。基準平面係以平均出光方向為法向量。該些網點於網點面上分佈之密度為離光源愈遠,密度愈大。One aspect of the invention is to propose a light guide. The light guide body includes a light incident surface, a light exit surface, and a dot surface. The entrance surface has an average light incident direction. The light exit surface has an average light exiting direction. The average light exiting direction is not parallel to the average light incident direction. The dot face has a plurality of dots. The projection of the dot surface on the reference plane covers the projection of the smooth surface on the reference plane. The reference plane is the normal light direction as the normal vector. The density of the dots distributed on the dot surface is the farther away from the light source, the greater the density.

於本發明之一實施例中,網點面至出光面的間距大於5mm。In an embodiment of the invention, the spacing between the dot surface and the light exiting surface is greater than 5 mm.

於本發明之一實施例中,入光面的寬度大於出光面的寬度,以增加導光體之受光面積。In an embodiment of the invention, the width of the light incident surface is greater than the width of the light exit surface to increase the light receiving area of the light guide.

於本發明之一實施例中,該些網點的大小相同。In an embodiment of the invention, the plurality of dots are the same size.

於本發明之一實施例中,該些網點於網點面上分佈之密度與其離光源的距離為線性關係。In an embodiment of the invention, the density of the dots distributed on the dot surface is linear with the distance from the light source.

於本發明之一實施例中,該些網點於網點面上分佈之密度與其離光源的距離為非線性關係。In an embodiment of the invention, the density of the dots distributed on the dot surface is nonlinear with respect to the distance from the light source.

於本發明之一實施例中,入光面為平面,平均入光方向與入光面的法向量平行。In an embodiment of the invention, the light incident surface is a plane, and the average light incident direction is parallel to the normal vector of the light incident surface.

於本發明之一實施例中,出光面為平面,平均出光方向與該出光面的法向量平行。In an embodiment of the invention, the light exiting surface is a plane, and the average light exiting direction is parallel to the normal vector of the light exiting surface.

於本發明之一實施例中,出光面係經霧面處理。In an embodiment of the invention, the light exiting surface is matte treated.

相較於先前技術,本發明所提出之導光體係透過增加其出光面與網點面之間的距離、亂數分佈其網點及加大入光面等方式,不僅能夠達成導光均勻及視覺美觀之效果,亦可簡化導光體之結構,以提升其市場競爭力。Compared with the prior art, the light guiding system proposed by the present invention can not only achieve uniform light guiding and visual beauty by increasing the distance between the light emitting surface and the dot surface, distributing the dot and randomly increasing the light entering surface. The effect can also simplify the structure of the light guide body to enhance its market competitiveness.

關於本發明之優點與精神可以藉由以下的發明詳述及所附圖式得到進一步的瞭解。The advantages and spirit of the present invention will be further understood from the following detailed description of the invention.

本發明係揭露一種導光體。該導光體能夠透過增加其出光面與網點面之間的距離以及亂數分佈其網點等方式,來達成導光均勻及視覺美觀之效果,藉以省去額外設置擴散片之成本並簡化導光體之結構。The invention discloses a light guide body. The light guide body can achieve the effect of uniform light guiding and visual appearance by increasing the distance between the light emitting surface and the dot surface and distributing the dots thereof in a random manner, thereby eliminating the cost of additionally providing the diffusion sheet and simplifying the light guiding. The structure of the body.

根據本發明之一較佳具體實施例為一種導光體。於此實施例中,導光體為具有導光功能之導光元件,例如導光管,但不以此為限。導光體可以由PC塑膠或壓克力(例如聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(Polymethylmethacrylate,PMMA)等材質所構成,但亦不以此為限。A preferred embodiment of the invention is a light guide. In this embodiment, the light guiding body is a light guiding element having a light guiding function, such as a light guiding tube, but is not limited thereto. The light guide body may be made of PC plastic or acrylic (for example, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), etc., but is not limited thereto.

請參照圖1,圖1係繪示此實施例之導光體的示意圖。如圖1所示,導光體1包含入光面10、出光面12及網點面14。網點面14具有複數個網點P,並且該些網點P的大小均相同,但不以此為限。實際上,導光體1之形狀可依照產品實際需求而定,可以是弧形、直線形或其他不同形狀。Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a light guide body of this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the light guide 1 includes a light incident surface 10, a light exit surface 12, and a halftone dot surface 14. The dot surface 14 has a plurality of dot points P, and the sizes of the dot dots P are the same, but are not limited thereto. In fact, the shape of the light guide body 1 may be determined according to the actual needs of the product, and may be curved, linear or other different shapes.

於此實施例中,入光面10及出光面12均為平面,並且分別具有法向量NI及NO。但實際上入光面10及出光面12亦可以是非平面(例如曲面),而出光面12可經霧面處理(例如噴砂或氧化方式)產生霧面效果,但不以此為限。In this embodiment, the light incident surface 10 and the light exit surface 12 are both planar and have normal vectors NI and NO, respectively. However, the light-incident surface 10 and the light-emitting surface 12 may be non-planar (for example, curved surfaces), and the light-emitting surface 12 may be matte-treated (for example, sandblasted or oxidized) to produce a matte effect, but not limited thereto.

首先,將就導光體1之入光面10、出光面12與網點面14之間的相對關係進行說明。First, the relative relationship between the light incident surface 10, the light exiting surface 12, and the halftone dot surface 14 of the light guide 1 will be described.

於此實施例中,導光體1係透過入光面10接收來自光源(例如發光二極體LED,但不以此為限)的光線,並透過出光面12將光線射出導光體1外。入光面10具有平均入光方向DI,而出光面12具有平均出光方向DO,並且平均出光方向DO與平均入光方向DI彼此不平行。也就是說,出光面12的平均出光方向DO與入光面10的平均入光方向DI之間所夾的角度不會剛好是0或180度。需說明的是,入光面10的平均入光方向DI係指將所有射進入光面10的光線之不同方向加以平均後所得到的平均方向,而出光面12的平均出光方向DO則是指將所有從出光面12射出的光線之不同方向加以平均後所得到的平均方向。In this embodiment, the light guide 1 receives the light from the light source (for example, the LED of the LED, but not limited thereto) through the light incident surface 10, and emits the light outside the light guide 1 through the light exit surface 12. . The light incident surface 10 has an average light incident direction DI, and the light exit surface 12 has an average light exit direction DO, and the average light exit direction DO and the average light incident direction DI are not parallel to each other. That is to say, the angle between the average light-emitting direction DO of the light-emitting surface 12 and the average light-in direction DI of the light-incident surface 10 is not exactly 0 or 180 degrees. It should be noted that the average light incident direction DI of the light incident surface 10 refers to an average direction obtained by averaging all the light rays entering the light surface 10, and the average light exiting direction DO of the light exit surface 12 means The average direction obtained by averaging the different directions of the light rays emitted from the light exit surface 12.

若入光面10的平均入光方向DI與其法向量NI彼此平行,並且出光面12的平均出光方向DO與其法向量NO彼此平行,代表入光面10的法向量NI與出光面12的法向量NO彼此亦不平行。If the average light incident direction DI of the light incident surface 10 and its normal vector NI are parallel to each other, and the average light exit direction DO of the light exit surface 12 and its normal vector NO are parallel to each other, the normal vector NI of the light incident surface 10 and the normal vector of the light exit surface 12 are represented. NO is not parallel to each other.

於一實施例中,出光面12的平均出光方向DO係與入光面10的平均入光方向DI彼此垂直,亦即出光面12的平均出光方向DO與入光面10的平均入光方向DI之間所夾的角度為90度,代表導光體1的入光面10與出光面12係彼此垂直,但不以此為限。In an embodiment, the average light-emitting direction DO of the light-emitting surface 12 and the average light-in direction DI of the light-incident surface 10 are perpendicular to each other, that is, the average light-emitting direction DO of the light-emitting surface 12 and the average light-in direction DI of the light-incident surface 10 The angle between the light incident surface 10 and the light exit surface 12 of the light guide body 1 is perpendicular to each other, but not limited thereto.

至於導光體1之網點面14與出光面12之間的相對關係,則請同時參照圖1及圖2,圖2係繪示網點面於基準平面上之投影涵蓋出光面於基準平面上之投影的示意圖。如圖所示,假設基準平面S係以出光面12的平均出光方向DO為法向量,網點面14於基準平面S上的投影PS將會涵蓋出光面12於基準平面S上的投影PO。As for the relative relationship between the halftone surface 14 of the light guide body 1 and the light exit surface 12, please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 simultaneously. FIG. 2 shows that the projection of the dot surface on the reference plane covers the light surface on the reference plane. Schematic diagram of the projection. As shown in the figure, it is assumed that the reference plane S is the normal light direction DO of the light exit surface 12 as a normal vector, and the projection PS of the halftone surface 14 on the reference plane S will cover the projection PO of the light surface 12 on the reference plane S.

此外,需說明的是,於導光體1中,若網點面14至出光面12的間距d太小,將會導致使用者透過導光體1的出光面12直視到網點面14上之該些網點P。因此,為了避免上述現象發生,於實際應用中,導光體1之網點面14至出光面12的間距d需大於5mm,才能使得網點面14上之網點P在使用者的視覺上變得相當不明顯。在一較佳實施例中,使用者的視線若是與出光面12的平均出光方向DO間呈一角度時(較佳為45度角),使用者不會看到該些網點P,藉以達到視覺美觀之效果。In addition, in the light guide body 1, if the spacing d between the halftone dot surface 14 and the light exiting surface 12 is too small, the user will directly see the light exiting surface 12 of the light guiding body 1 on the halftone dot surface 14. Some outlets P. Therefore, in order to avoid the above phenomenon, in practical applications, the distance d between the halftone dot surface 14 of the light guiding body 1 and the light emitting surface 12 needs to be greater than 5 mm, so that the dot P on the halftone dot surface 14 becomes visually equivalent to the user. Not obvious. In a preferred embodiment, if the user's line of sight is at an angle to the average light exiting direction DO of the light exiting surface 12 (preferably 45 degrees), the user does not see the dots P to achieve vision. Beautiful effect.

接著,將就該些網點P製作於網點面14上的分佈情形進行詳細說明。Next, the distribution of the dots P on the halftone dots 14 will be described in detail.

於此實施例中,該些網點P可採用印刷、模仁蝕刻或模仁雷射等方式製作於導光體1的網點面14上。至於該些網點P的分佈圖樣及形狀大小則可視不同導光體1之實際需求而定,並無特定之限制。In this embodiment, the dots P may be formed on the halftone dots 14 of the light guide 1 by printing, mold etching or mold laser. As for the distribution pattern and shape of the dots P, the actual requirements of the different light guides 1 may be determined, and there is no particular limitation.

需說明的是,本發明之導光體1的一項重要特徵在於:在導光體1中,該些網點P於網點面14上分佈之密度為離光源愈遠,密度愈大。由於光源所發出的光線係由入光面10進入導光體1中,故實質上該些網點P於網點面14上分佈之密度為離入光面10愈遠,密度愈大。It should be noted that an important feature of the light guiding body 1 of the present invention is that in the light guiding body 1, the density of the dots P on the halftone dot surface 14 is the farther away from the light source, and the density is larger. Since the light emitted by the light source enters the light guide body 1 from the light incident surface 10, substantially the density of the mesh dots P distributed on the halftone dot surface 14 is farther from the light incident surface 10, and the density is larger.

請參照圖3,圖3係繪示藉由發光二極體兩側入光之導光體的前視圖。如圖3所示,自出光面22往網點面24的方向望去,導光體2的兩側X1及X2分別設置有發光二極體LED1及LED2,並且導光體2之入光面20的寬度W1大於出光面22的寬度W2,亦即入光面20於前述基準平面S上的投影與出光面22於前述基準平面S上的投影相較,前者的寬度W1大於後者的寬度W2,藉以增加導光體2之受光面積。至於網點面24則係位於出光面22後方處。以一較佳實施例來說,網點面24上設置有該些網點P,至於該些網點P的分佈密度如前文所述,另外該些網點P的分佈範圍則可僅分佈於相對應出光面22的位置上,或是整個網點面24,並不以任一方式為限。Please refer to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a front view showing a light guide body through which light is incident from both sides of the LED. As shown in FIG. 3, the light-emitting surface 22 is disposed in the direction of the halftone dot surface 24, and the light-emitting diodes LED1 and LED2 are disposed on both sides X1 and X2 of the light guide body 2, respectively, and the light-incident surface 20 of the light guide body 2 is disposed. The width W1 is greater than the width W2 of the light-emitting surface 22, that is, the projection of the light-incident surface 20 on the reference plane S is compared with the projection of the light-emitting surface 22 on the reference plane S, and the width W1 of the former is greater than the width W2 of the latter. Thereby, the light receiving area of the light guide body 2 is increased. As for the dot surface 24, it is located behind the light exit surface 22. In a preferred embodiment, the dot points P are disposed on the dot 24, and the distribution density of the dots P is as described above, and the distribution of the dots P may be distributed only on the corresponding light emitting surface. The position of 22, or the entire dot 24, is not limited to either method.

另外,如圖3所示,入光面20於前述基準平面S上的投影與出光面22於前述基準平面S上的投影間具有一差距d’,若在設計上增加d’,則可減少當發光二極體LED1及LED2自兩邊的入光面20進光,並由出光面22出光時,使用者觀察到兩端過亮的情形。In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the projection of the light incident surface 20 on the reference plane S and the projection of the light exit surface 22 on the reference plane S have a difference d', and if d' is added to the design, the reduction can be reduced. When the light-emitting diodes LED1 and LED2 enter the light from the light-incident surface 20 on both sides, and the light exits from the light-emitting surface 22, the user observes that both ends are too bright.

由於網點面上的網點分佈密度為離光源愈遠,密度愈大,且導光體2的兩側X1及X2處均設置有光源,因此,網點面24上位於導光體2兩側X1及X2的網點分佈密度應為最小密度值,而網點面24上位於導光體2兩側之中央處Xc的網點分佈密度應為最大密度值。也就是說,網點面24上的網點分佈密度係由位於導光體2兩側之中央處Xc的最大密度值分別向兩側遞減至位於導光體2兩側X1及X2的最小密度值。Since the distribution density of the dots on the dot surface is farther from the light source, the density is larger, and the light source is disposed at both sides X1 and X2 of the light guide body 2. Therefore, the mesh surface 24 is located on both sides X1 of the light guide body 2 and The distribution density of the dots of X2 should be the minimum density value, and the distribution density of the dots of Xc located at the center of both sides of the light guide body 2 on the halftone face 24 should be the maximum density value. That is to say, the distribution density of the dots on the halftone dot surface 24 is decreased from the maximum density value of Xc located at the center of both sides of the light guiding body 2 to the minimum density values of X1 and X2 on both sides of the light guiding body 2, respectively.

需說明的是,只要導光體之網點面上的網點分佈密度能夠符合離光源愈遠,密度愈大之原則,其實每個網點分佈的位置並無特定的限制,甚至可以採取亂數分佈之方式來配置每個網點分佈的位置。It should be noted that as long as the distribution density of the dots on the halftone surface of the light guide body can conform to the principle that the farther away from the light source is, the higher the density is. In fact, there is no specific limit on the position of each dot distribution, and even a random number distribution can be adopted. The way to configure the location of each dot distribution.

於一較佳實施例中,導光體之網點面上的該些網點可以僅分佈在投影於出光面下方的位置,藉以增加更多的出光量,故可減少能量的浪費。In a preferred embodiment, the dots on the halftone surface of the light guide body may be distributed only at a position projected below the light exiting surface, thereby increasing the amount of light emitted, thereby reducing energy waste.

於實際應用中,圖3中之網點面24上的網點分佈密度與該些網點離光源的距離之間的對應關係可以是線性關係,亦可以是非線性關係。請參照圖4A及圖4B,圖4A係繪示圖3中之網點分佈密度與該些網點離光源的距離之間具有線性關係;圖4B係繪示圖3中之網點分佈密度與該些網點離光源的距離之間具有非線性關係。In practical applications, the correspondence between the distribution density of the dot on the halftone dot 24 in FIG. 3 and the distance from the light source to the light source may be a linear relationship or a nonlinear relationship. 4A and FIG. 4B, FIG. 4A is a linear relationship between the dot distribution density of FIG. 3 and the distance of the dots from the light source; FIG. 4B is a diagram showing the dot distribution density and the dots in FIG. There is a nonlinear relationship between the distances from the light source.

如圖4A所示,網點面24上的網點分佈密度D係以線性方式由位於導光體2兩側之中央處Xc的最大密度值Dc分別向兩側遞減至位於導光體2兩側X1及X2的最小密度值D1及D2。As shown in FIG. 4A, the distribution density D of the dots on the halftone dot surface 24 is linearly reduced from the maximum density value Dc at the center of the light guide body 2 to the sides X1 on both sides of the light guide body 2, respectively. And the minimum density values D1 and D2 of X2.

如圖4B所示,網點面24上的網點分佈密度D係以非線性方式由位於導光體2兩側之中央處Xc的最大密度值Dc分別向兩側遞減至位於導光體2兩側X1及X2的最小密度值D1及D2。實際上,所謂的非線性方式可以是採用最小平方法產生之曲線,但不以此為限。As shown in FIG. 4B, the distribution density D of the dot on the halftone dot surface 24 is reduced in a nonlinear manner from the maximum density value Dc of the Xc located at the center of both sides of the light guide body 2 to both sides of the light guide body 2, respectively. The minimum density values D1 and D2 of X1 and X2. In fact, the so-called nonlinear method may be a curve generated by the least square method, but is not limited thereto.

於實際應用中,導光體並不一定要採用如同圖3所示之雙側入光方式,亦可能採用單側入光方式(例如將圖3中的發光二極體LED2移除),此時,網點面上的網點分佈密度與該些網點離光源的距離之間的對應關係即會變為圖5A或圖5B所示的情形,其中圖5A係繪示單側入光之導光體的網點分佈密度與該些網點離光源的距離之間具有線性關係,圖5B係繪示單側入光之導光體的網點分佈密度與該些網點離光源的距離之間具有非線性關係。In practical applications, the light guide does not have to adopt the double-side light input mode as shown in FIG. 3, and may also adopt a single-side light input mode (for example, the light-emitting diode LED 2 in FIG. 3 is removed). The relationship between the distribution density of the dot on the halftone dot and the distance of the dot from the light source may become the case shown in FIG. 5A or FIG. 5B, wherein FIG. 5A shows the light guide of the single side light entering. There is a linear relationship between the distribution density of the dots and the distance of the dots from the light source. FIG. 5B shows a nonlinear relationship between the dot distribution density of the light guides unilaterally entering the light and the distance of the dots from the light source.

如圖5A所示,網點分佈密度D係以線性方式由位於導光體入光側X1的最小密度值D1’遞增至導光體非入光側X2的最大密度值D2’。如圖5B所示,網點分佈密度D係以非線性(例如曲線)方式由位於導光體入光側X1的最小密度值D1’遞增至導光體非入光側X2的最大密度值D2’。As shown in Fig. 5A, the halftone dot distribution density D is linearly increased from the minimum density value D1' located on the light incident side X1 to the maximum density value D2' of the light guide non-light incident side X2. As shown in FIG. 5B, the dot distribution density D is increased from the minimum density value D1' located on the light incident side X1 of the light guide to the maximum density value D2' of the light guide non-light incident side X2 in a nonlinear (for example, curved) manner. .

相較於先前技術,本發明所提出之導光體係透過增加其出光面與網點面之間的距離、亂數分佈其網點及加大入光面等方式,來達成導光均勻及視覺美觀之效果,故可省去導光體額外設置擴散片之成本,以提升其市場競爭力。Compared with the prior art, the light guiding system proposed by the present invention achieves uniform light guiding and visual appearance by increasing the distance between the light emitting surface and the dot surface, distributing the dot points in a random number, and increasing the light entering surface. The effect is achieved, so that the cost of additionally providing a diffusion sheet for the light guide body can be omitted to enhance its market competitiveness.

藉由以上較佳具體實施例之詳述,係希望能更加清楚描述本發明之特徵與精神,而並非以上述所揭露的較佳具體實施例來對本發明之範疇加以限制。相反地,其目的是希望能涵蓋各種改變及具相等性的安排於本發明所欲申請之專利範圍的範疇內。The features and spirit of the present invention will be more apparent from the detailed description of the preferred embodiments. On the contrary, the intention is to cover various modifications and equivalents within the scope of the invention as claimed.
