Description

発光モジュールの支持装置Light emitting module support device
　本発明は、発光ダイオード等の発光素子を基板上に配置した発光モジュールを照明装置として直管型蛍光灯用のソケットに設置する場合の支持装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a support device in a case where a light emitting module in which a light emitting element such as a light emitting diode is arranged on a substrate is installed in a socket for a straight tube type fluorescent lamp as a lighting device.
　日本国内における住宅用又は事務所用の照明としては、白熱電球よりも蛍光灯が主流である。蛍光灯には、丸形や電球型等の多数の種類があるが、事務所等の照明として最も普及しているのは直管型蛍光灯である。一般的に蛍光灯は、白熱灯よりも発光効率が高く寿命も長いため、電気料金と交換費用を含むトータルの維持費が安くなる利点を有している。 Fluorescent lamps are more popular than incandescent bulbs for domestic or office lighting in Japan. There are many types of fluorescent lamps, such as a round shape and a light bulb type, but the most popular type of lighting for offices is the straight tube type fluorescent lamp. In general, a fluorescent lamp has a light emitting efficiency and a longer life than an incandescent lamp, and thus has an advantage that a total maintenance cost including an electric charge and a replacement cost is reduced.
　蛍光灯は白熱電球に対して消費電力と寿命の点で優れている長所を有しているが、廃棄された蛍光灯に残る水銀が環境を汚染する可能性がある。そのため、より寿命が長く環境負荷の少ない発光ダイオード（ＬＥＤ）を蛍光灯に代えて使用することが検討されている。例えば、複数のＬＥＤを実装した基板（発光モジュール）を内蔵させた円筒形で透明又は半透明なパイプの両端に直管型蛍光灯のソケット用の端子を設けた蛍光灯置換型ＬＥＤ照明装置が開示されている。（例えば、特許文献１参照）。 Fluorescent lamps have advantages over incandescent bulbs in terms of power consumption and lifetime, but mercury remaining in discarded fluorescent lamps may contaminate the environment. Therefore, use of a light emitting diode (LED) having a longer life and less environmental load in place of a fluorescent lamp has been studied. For example, there is a fluorescent lamp replacement type LED lighting device in which a terminal for a socket of a straight tube fluorescent lamp is provided at both ends of a cylindrical transparent or translucent pipe in which a substrate (light emitting module) on which a plurality of LEDs are mounted is incorporated. It is disclosed. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).
　そのような従来の発光ダイオードを用いた発光モジュールの発熱については、発光ダイオードは一般的に効率が良いので、白熱電球と比べて、同じ照度を得る場合なら発熱は少なくできる。しかし、同じ照度を得る場合の蛍光灯と比べると、発光ダイオードは発熱量を削減できるとは一概に言えない。また、発熱について、発光ダイオードは、一般的に熱伝導率の低い樹脂パッケージに密封されて、熱伝導率の低い基板上に実装されるため、発光素子の周辺に熱が溜まりやすいという短所がある。そして、発光ダイオードが温度上昇した場合は、素子の寿命が縮まり、発光効率が低下する。そのため、発光ダイオードの放熱性を改善するための金属製の放熱板や放熱片を基板上や基板の中間に設置したり、基板自体をアルミニウム等の熱伝導率の良い金属導体性の薄板にしたり、銅のスルーホールやバンプやブロックを基板中に形成することが提案されている。 Regarding the heat generation of a light emitting module using such a conventional light emitting diode, since the light emitting diode is generally efficient, the heat generation can be reduced if the same illuminance is obtained as compared with the incandescent bulb. However, it cannot be generally said that light-emitting diodes can reduce the amount of heat generation compared to fluorescent lamps in the case of obtaining the same illuminance. In addition, with respect to heat generation, the light emitting diode is generally sealed in a resin package having a low thermal conductivity and mounted on a substrate having a low thermal conductivity, so that heat is likely to accumulate around the light emitting element. . When the temperature of the light emitting diode rises, the lifetime of the element is shortened and the light emission efficiency is lowered. Therefore, a metal heat sink or heat dissipation piece for improving the heat dissipation of the light emitting diode is installed on the substrate or in the middle of the substrate, or the substrate itself is made of a metal conductive thin plate with good thermal conductivity such as aluminum. It has been proposed to form copper through holes, bumps or blocks in a substrate.
　発明者は、上記した例に限られない温度上昇を抑える対策がとられた発光モジュールを、従来の蛍光灯に代えて使用することを提案している。発明者が提案している発光モジュールでは、例えば、周囲温度２７度の状況で定格電圧５０Ｈｚ、１００Ｖを印加して点灯した場合（消費電力３．１４｛Ｗ｝、全光束２３３｛Ｌｍ｝）の６０分後と１２０分後の温度が双方とも３７度であった（地方独立行政法人　東京都立産業技術研究センターに測定依頼：報告書番号１９依研光第４０５～４０７号）。つまり、発明者が提案している発光モジュールは、室温が２７度の場合、通常の使用では３７度以上には上昇せず、電力も大幅に削減することができる。より具体的には、本発光モジュールは、長さ：約２５０ｍｍ×幅：約１８．５ｍｍ×厚さ：１．６ｍｍ（発光ダイオード込みで３．５ｍｍ）という寸法で、消費電力３．１４｛Ｗ｝にもかかわらず、１０｛Ｗ｝の蛍光灯に相当する光量を照射できる。蛍光灯に換算して４０｛Ｗ｝の光量が必要な場合には、本モジュールを４本、直列又は並列等に接続して用いればよく、その場合の消費電力は１２．５６｛Ｗ｝のみであり、省エネルギー化に多大な貢献が可能である。 The inventor has proposed to use a light emitting module, which is not limited to the above-described example, in which measures for suppressing temperature rise are taken, instead of a conventional fluorescent lamp. In the light emitting module proposed by the inventor, for example, when the rated voltage is 50 Hz and 100 V is applied in a situation where the ambient temperature is 27 degrees (power consumption 3.14 {W}, total luminous flux 233 {Lm}). The temperatures after 60 minutes and 120 minutes were both 37 degrees (request for measurement from the Tokyo Metropolitan Industrial Technology Research Center: Report No. 19 Yokomitsu 405-407). That is, when the room temperature is 27 degrees, the light emitting module proposed by the inventor does not increase to 37 degrees or more under normal use, and the power can be greatly reduced. More specifically, this light emitting module has a length: about 250 mm × width: about 18.5 mm × thickness: 1.6 mm (3.5 mm including a light emitting diode) and power consumption of 3.14 {W }, The amount of light corresponding to a fluorescent lamp of 10 {W} can be irradiated. When a light quantity of 40 {W} is required in terms of a fluorescent lamp, this module may be used by connecting four modules in series or parallel, and the power consumption in that case is only 12.56 {W} Therefore, it can greatly contribute to energy saving.

図示された実施形態の説明
　以下、本発明の実施の形態について、以下に図面を用いながら詳細に説明する。
　＜発光モジュール＞
　図１は、本発明に用いた発光モジュールの概略構成を示す上面図及び側面図である。
　発光モジュール１００は、長辺がＬ１で短辺がＬ３の所定の縦横寸法を有する略長方形の板状であり、基板１０１上に複数個の照明用の発光ダイオード１０２が等間隔Ｌ２で直列に且つ２列に配列されている。発光ダイオード１０２の間隔は、発光量の仕様と放熱性能により規定される。配置パターンは図示した形態に限らない。 DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
<Light emitting module>
FIG. 1 is a top view and a side view showing a schematic configuration of a light emitting module used in the present invention.
The light emitting module 100 has a substantially rectangular plate shape having a predetermined vertical and horizontal dimension with a long side L1 and a short side L3, and a plurality of light emitting diodes 102 for illumination are arranged in series at equal intervals L2 on the substrate 101. Arranged in two rows. The interval between the light emitting diodes 102 is defined by the specification of the light emission amount and the heat dissipation performance. The arrangement pattern is not limited to the illustrated form.
　発光ダイオード１０２を照明に用いる場合の長所としては、まず、白熱電球に対して発光効率が良く消費電力を少なくできることが挙げられる。蛍光灯に対しては、蛍光灯は大電力になるほど効率が上がるので一概には言えないものの、少なくとも数十ワット以下では発光ダイオードの方が効率が良く、消費電力を少なくできる。また、それに伴い、電源設備も小型化でき、電気代も削減できることが挙げられる。 As an advantage when the light emitting diode 102 is used for illumination, firstly, it is possible to improve light emission efficiency and reduce power consumption with respect to an incandescent bulb. For fluorescent lamps, the higher the power, the higher the efficiency of the fluorescent lamp. This cannot be generally stated, but the light-emitting diode is more efficient and consumes less power at least several tens of watts or less. Along with this, the power supply equipment can be reduced in size, and the electricity bill can be reduced.
　また、発光ダイオードは、一般的に寿命が白熱電球や蛍光灯よりも長く、交換費用を低減できる。通常は長所であるが場合によっては短所にもなることとして、発光ダイオードから照射される光には指向性があることが挙げられる。この性質は、光の照射方向が限られている場合や一方向に照射する場合には長所になるが、光を指向性外の角度を含む多方向に照射させたい場合あるいは視認させたい場合には短所になる場合がある。また、発光ダイオードの短所としては、発光条件の電圧・電流の条件範囲が比較的狭く、その条件以上の電圧・電流では破損しやすく、照明用の高輝度のものは価格が高いことが挙げられる。 Also, light emitting diodes generally have a longer life than incandescent bulbs and fluorescent lamps, and can reduce replacement costs. Although it is usually an advantage, it may be a disadvantage in some cases. The light emitted from the light emitting diode has directivity. This property is advantageous when the direction of light irradiation is limited or when irradiating in one direction, but when you want to irradiate light in multiple directions including angles other than directivity or when you want to make it visible Can be a disadvantage. In addition, the disadvantages of light emitting diodes are that the voltage / current condition range of the light emitting conditions is relatively narrow, and the voltage / current exceeding the conditions is likely to break, and the high brightness ones for illumination are expensive. .
　基板１０１には、各発光ダイオード１０２に発光用の電圧／電流を供給するための配線が、導体パターンの印刷又は露光後のエッチング等により形成されている。その配線は、非発光面に形成された接続部１０３でリード線１０４の一端に接続され、リード線１０４の他端部には外部電源等と接続するためのコネクタ１０５が取り付けられている。 On the substrate 101, wiring for supplying light emitting voltage / current to each light emitting diode 102 is formed by printing a conductor pattern or etching after exposure. The wiring is connected to one end of the lead wire 104 at a connection portion 103 formed on the non-light emitting surface, and a connector 105 for connecting to an external power source or the like is attached to the other end portion of the lead wire 104.
　＜蛍光灯型照明装置＞
　図２（ａ）は、蛍光灯型照明装置の概略構成を示す下面図と側面図である。
　蛍光灯型照明装置１には、ソケット１０に直管型蛍光灯９００が取り付け可能である。直管型蛍光灯９００は、口金部９０１の接続ピンがソケット１０の取付孔等に嵌合されることで固定される。蛍光灯型照明装置１は、直管型蛍光灯９００から全周面方向に放出された光を前方方向（天井取付型の場合の下方向）に反射する反射板１１を有している。 <Fluorescent lamp type lighting device>

　直管型蛍光灯９００の口金部９０１の形状は、例えばＪＩＳ（日本工業規格）に規定されたＧ１３口金又はＧ５口金である。直管型蛍光灯９００の長さ方向の寸法Ｌ６もＪＩＳに規定されており、例えば、１０形（１０Ｗ形）で３３０ｍｍ、２０形（２０Ｗ形）が５８０ｍｍ、４０形（４０Ｗ形）が１１９８ｍｍ、１１０形（１１０Ｗ形）が２３６７ｍｍである。直管型蛍光灯９００は、一般的にワット数が大きいほど定格寿命が長いとされている。 The shape of the base portion 901 of the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 is, for example, a G13 base or a G5 base defined in JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard). The length L6 of the straight tube type fluorescent lamp 900 is also defined in JIS. For example, the 10 type (10 W type) is 330 mm, the 20 type (20 W type) is 580 mm, the 40 type (40 W type) is 1198 mm, The 110 type (110 W type) is 2367 mm. The straight tube type fluorescent lamp 900 generally has a longer rated life as the wattage is larger.
　一般的に蛍光灯は、陰極に電流を流して加熱することで電子を陽極に向けて放出（放電）させるようにして初めて点灯し、単純に蛍光灯の端子に定格電圧を印加したのみでは点灯しない。蛍光灯の点灯方式は複数有り、蛍光灯の種類も点灯方式によって分類できる。点灯方式には、大きく分けてスタータ式、磁気漏れ変圧器を用いるラピッドスタート式、及び、インバータ式がある。スタータ式の中には、さらに点灯管（グロースタータ）を用いる点灯管式、押しボタンスイッチを放す際の放電による手動スタート式、電子点灯管を用いた電子スタータ式がある。インバータ式では、インバータ回路により高周波で点灯させる。尚、蛍光灯の寿命は、点灯管方式では点灯（始動）時の負荷により１時間縮むとされている。 In general, fluorescent lamps are lit only when current is applied to the cathode and heated to discharge (discharge) electrons toward the anode, and simply by applying the rated voltage to the fluorescent lamp terminals. do not do. There are a plurality of fluorescent lamp lighting methods, and the types of fluorescent lamps can be classified by the lighting method. The lighting system is roughly divided into a starter type, a rapid start type using a magnetic leakage transformer, and an inverter type. Among the starter types, there are a lighting tube type using a lighting tube (glow starter), a manual start type by discharging when releasing a push button switch, and an electronic starter type using an electronic lighting tube. In the inverter type, the inverter circuit is lit at a high frequency. Note that the life of the fluorescent lamp is supposed to be shortened by one hour due to the load during lighting (starting) in the lighting tube method.
　また、蛍光灯を点灯させるためには、上記の各点灯方式に応じた安定器が必要である。安定器にも複数の種類があり、磁気安定器は、銅鉄安定器とも称され、スタータ式とラピッドスタート式の点灯方式で用いることができる。電子安定器は、インバータとも称され、点灯管式と高周波点灯方式の点灯方式に用いることができる。 Moreover, in order to light the fluorescent lamp, a ballast corresponding to each of the above lighting methods is required. There are also several types of ballasts, and magnetic ballasts are also called copper-iron ballasts, and can be used in starter type and rapid start type lighting systems. The electronic ballast is also called an inverter, and can be used for a lighting method of a lighting tube type and a high frequency lighting method.

　本実施形態の支持装置２０は、直管型蛍光灯９００用のソケット１０を有する蛍光灯型照明装置１に、直管型蛍光灯９００に代えて、板状で所定の縦横寸法を有する略長方形の発光モジュール１００を照明装置として設置するための装置である。 The support device 20 of this embodiment is a plate-like, substantially rectangular shape having predetermined vertical and horizontal dimensions, instead of the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900, instead of the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 having the socket 10 for the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900. The light emitting module 100 is installed as a lighting device.
　支持装置２０は、発光モジュール１００の短辺Ｌ３の寸法よりも小さい幅寸法Ｌ４（小凹溝部２３部）で、直管型蛍光灯９００の長さ方向の寸法Ｌ６に等しい長さ寸法の大凹溝部２１を有している。長さ方向の寸法Ｌ６は、少なくとも発光モジュール１００の長辺Ｌ１の寸法よりも大きい長さ寸法である。 The support device 20 has a width dimension L4 (small concave groove portion 23) smaller than the dimension of the short side L3 of the light emitting module 100, and a large recess having a length dimension equal to the length dimension L6 of the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900. A groove 21 is provided. The dimension L6 in the length direction is a length dimension that is at least larger than the dimension of the long side L1 of the light emitting module 100.
　大凹溝部２１は、少なくとも後述する接続部３１の短辺寸法よりも大きく奥側に凹形状に窪んで、発光モジュール１００を保持するために左右内側の内壁２２ａ、２２ｂを有しており、発光モジュール１００の照射光を前方に照射可能な開口部を有していれば、角溝、Ｕ字溝、Ｖ字溝等、任意の形状であってよい。本実施形態の支持装置２０は、長さ寸法が、発光モジュール１００を縦に２個取り付け可能な長さ（発光モジュール１００の長辺Ｌ１の寸法×２よりも長い）である大凹溝部２１を一列有している。大凹溝部２１は、本実施形態では一列であるが、例えば３列等の複数列に発光モジュール１００を保持可能であるように形成しても良い。大凹溝部２１が３列等である場合には、後述する接続部３１は、例えば中間列部分に設ければよい。 The large concave groove portion 21 is recessed in a concave shape on the back side, which is larger than at least a short side dimension of the connecting portion 31 described later, and has inner walls 22a and 22b on the left and right inner sides for holding the light emitting module 100. As long as it has the opening which can irradiate the irradiation light of the module 100 ahead, it may be arbitrary shapes, such as a square groove, a U-shaped groove, and a V-shaped groove. The support device 20 of the present embodiment has a large groove portion 21 whose length dimension is a length that allows two light emitting modules 100 to be vertically mounted (longer than the dimension of the long side L1 of the light emitting module 100 × 2). Has one row. The large concave groove portion 21 is one row in the present embodiment, but may be formed so that the light emitting modules 100 can be held in a plurality of rows such as three rows. In the case where the large concave groove portions 21 are arranged in three rows or the like, a connection portion 31 described later may be provided, for example, in an intermediate row portion.
　大凹溝部２１の左右の各内壁（２２ａ、２２ｂ）には、発光モジュール１００の長辺の辺縁端部１００ａの断面形状に略等しい断面形状を有するように、大凹溝部２１に平行な小凹溝部２３が、左右対向する配置で各々形成される。
　各小凹溝部２３の対向する溝奥面部同士の間隔寸法は、発光モジュール１００の短辺の寸法Ｌ３と略同一である。 The left and right inner walls (22a, 22b) of the large concave groove portion 21 have small cross-sections parallel to the large concave groove portion 21 so as to have a cross-sectional shape substantially equal to the cross-sectional shape of the long edge portion 100a of the light emitting module 100. The recessed groove portions 23 are respectively formed in a left-right facing arrangement.
The spacing dimension between the opposing groove back surface parts of each small concave groove part 23 is substantially the same as the dimension L3 of the short side of the light emitting module 100.
　大凹溝部２１の左右の各内壁２２ａ、２２ｂにおける各小凹溝部２３よりも開口部側は、開口部に近づくほど開口幅が広がる平面又は曲面からなるテーパ面となるように形成される。これにより、発光モジュール１００から出射される光を前面側に反射させることができる。例えば、発光モジュール１００の発光ダイオード１０２の照射角度が１１０度の場合、各内壁２２ａ、２２ｂにおける各小凹溝部２３よりも開口部側は、その１１０度に開いた出射光の左右（両側の反射面側）端部部分を前方に反射できる角度に形成される。尚、蛍光灯型照明装置１の反射板１１は、直管型蛍光灯９００から全周面方向に放出された光を前方方向に反射するためには有効であるが、照射角度が１１０度等の発光モジュール１００上の発光ダイオード１０２から照射される光に対してはあまり有効ではない。 The opening side of each of the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large groove portion 21 is formed to be a tapered surface having a flat surface or a curved surface in which the opening width increases as the opening portion is approached. Thereby, the light emitted from the light emitting module 100 can be reflected to the front side. For example, when the irradiation angle of the light emitting diode 102 of the light emitting module 100 is 110 degrees, the opening side of each inner wall 22a, 22b is closer to the left and right sides (reflected on both sides) of the emitted light that is opened at 110 degrees. (Side side) It is formed at an angle at which the end portion can be reflected forward. The reflector 11 of the fluorescent lamp type illumination device 1 is effective for reflecting the light emitted from the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 in the entire circumferential direction in the forward direction, but the irradiation angle is 110 degrees or the like. The light emitted from the light emitting diode 102 on the light emitting module 100 is not very effective.
　従って大凹溝部２１は、左右内壁２２ａ及び２２ｂの各小凹溝部２３よりも開口部側が、開口部側に近づくほど広がる平面又は曲面からなるテーパ面に形成されるので、支持装置２０の左右内壁２２ａ及び２２ｂのテーパ面により、発光モジュール１００から出射される光を効率的に前面に照射することができる。 Accordingly, the large concave groove portion 21 is formed on the left and right inner walls of the support device 20 because the opening side of each of the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b has a flat surface or a curved surface that widens toward the opening side. The light emitted from the light emitting module 100 can be efficiently applied to the front surface by the tapered surfaces 22a and 22b.
　支持装置２０の本体は、大凹溝部２１及び各小凹溝部２３に沿う方向で押し出し成型により形成可能な断面形状を有する。支持装置２０の本体は、例えば、冷間圧延鋼板（ＳＰＣ材）を成形して作成するか、アルミニウムを押し出し成型することにより作成できる。ＳＰＣ材の加工は、一般的な機械加工に用いられるプレス装置等を用いてもよい。アルミニウム材の押し出し加工は、一般的な機械加工に用いられるプレス装置と金型（ダイス）等を用いて高圧力で押し出す熱間加工でもよい。 The main body of the support device 20 has a cross-sectional shape that can be formed by extrusion molding in a direction along the large groove portion 21 and each small groove portion 23. The main body of the support device 20 can be created by forming a cold-rolled steel plate (SPC material) or by extruding aluminum. For processing of the SPC material, a press device or the like used for general machining may be used. The extrusion process of the aluminum material may be a hot process of extruding at a high pressure using a press device and a die (die) used for general machining.
　従って支持装置２０は、大凹溝部２１及び各小凹溝部２３に沿う方向で押し出し成型により形成可能な断面形状を有するので、支持装置２０を、金属又は樹脂等の押し出し成型により形成することができる。 Therefore, since the support device 20 has a cross-sectional shape that can be formed by extrusion molding in the direction along the large groove portion 21 and each small groove portion 23, the support device 20 can be formed by extrusion molding of metal or resin. .
　また、各小凹溝部２３は、大凹溝部２１の左右の内壁２２ａ、２２ｂに、発光モジュール１００の長辺の辺縁端部１００ａを側面から摺動させて挿入可能なレール形状（支持装置２０の本体の長辺の両端間を貫通する）に形成される。発光モジュール１００は、発光ダイオード１０２を開放部側に向けて、レール形状で対向する各小凹溝部２３の間に配置される。 Each of the small groove portions 23 has a rail shape (supporting device 20) that can be inserted into the left and right inner walls 22 a and 22 b of the large groove portion 21 by sliding the long edge portion 100 a of the light emitting module 100 from the side surface. It penetrates between both ends of the long side of the main body. The light emitting module 100 is disposed between the small concave groove portions 23 facing each other in a rail shape with the light emitting diode 102 facing the open portion side.
　従って小凹溝部２３は、大凹溝部２１の左右内壁２２ａ及び２２ｂに、発光モジュール１００の長辺の辺縁端部を側面から摺動させて挿入可能なレール形状に形成されるので、支持装置２０における、発光モジュール１００の取付と交換が発光モジュール１００をレール形状の小凹溝部２３に挿入するか抜き出すかのみで容易に実施できる。 Accordingly, the small groove portion 23 is formed in a rail shape that can be inserted into the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large groove portion 21 by sliding the edge portions of the long sides of the light emitting module 100 from the side surface. The mounting and replacement of the light emitting module 100 at 20 can be easily performed only by inserting or removing the light emitting module 100 into the rail-shaped small concave groove 23.
　発光モジュール１００の基板１０１及びプリント配線等が十分な可撓性（湾曲時等に亀裂又は断裂等を発生させない）を有している場合は、側面から摺動させて挿入する代わりに、開口部側から発光モジュール１００押し込んで各小凹溝部２３の間に配置してもよい。その場合、各小凹溝部２３は、支持装置２０の本体の長辺の両端間を貫通するレール形状である必要性はなく、発光モジュール１００の長辺の辺縁端部１００ａに適合する形状の凹部であればよい。 If the substrate 101 and the printed wiring of the light emitting module 100 have sufficient flexibility (does not generate cracks or tears when bent, etc.), instead of inserting them by sliding from the side, the opening The light emitting module 100 may be pushed in from the side and disposed between the small groove portions 23. In that case, each small concave groove 23 does not need to have a rail shape that penetrates between both ends of the long side of the main body of the support device 20, and has a shape that fits the edge portion 100 a of the long side of the light emitting module 100. What is necessary is just a recessed part.
　このように支持装置２０では、発光モジュール１００の変更が発光モジュール１００をレール形状の小凹溝部２３に挿入するか抜き出すかのみで容易に実施でき、内壁２２ａ、２２ｂに反射させることで、発光モジュール１００から出射される光を効率的に前面方向に照射することができる。 As described above, in the support device 20, the light emitting module 100 can be easily changed only by inserting or removing the light emitting module 100 into or from the rail-shaped small concave groove 23, and the light emitting module 100 is reflected by the inner walls 22 a and 22 b. The light emitted from 100 can be efficiently irradiated in the front direction.
　接続部３１は、大凹溝部２１の長辺の両縁端部で、発光モジュール１００の背面側（非発光側）に設置される。この大凹溝部２１内の接続部３１を設置するための空間は、発光モジュール１００の上では、リード線１０４等を、大凹溝部２１の背面側との間で押圧されないで配線できる空間となっている。接続部３１は、導電材料で形成される接続端子４１と絶縁材料で形成される絶縁板４２を含む。接続端子４１は、例えば真鍮等の材料でソケット１０に挿入可能に突出するパイプ形状であり、発光モジュール１００のリード線１０４の一端と電気的に接続される。絶縁板４２は、複数の接続端子４１間の絶縁距離を維持できるように各接続端子４１を挟み込んで把持するように形成される。 The connecting portion 31 is installed on the back side (non-light emitting side) of the light emitting module 100 at both edge portions of the long side of the large concave groove portion 21. The space for installing the connection portion 31 in the large groove portion 21 is a space on the light emitting module 100 where the lead wire 104 or the like can be wired without being pressed between the back surface side of the large groove portion 21. ing. The connection part 31 includes a connection terminal 41 formed of a conductive material and an insulating plate 42 formed of an insulating material. The connection terminal 41 has a pipe shape that protrudes so as to be inserted into the socket 10 with a material such as brass, and is electrically connected to one end of the lead wire 104 of the light emitting module 100. The insulating plate 42 is formed so as to sandwich and hold the connection terminals 41 so that the insulation distance between the plurality of connection terminals 41 can be maintained.
　従って接続部３１は、大凹溝部２１における発光モジュール１００よりも溝奥側に設置されるので、発光モジュール１００と接続部３１との電気的な接続を容易にできる。又、接続部３１は、ソケット１０に挿入可能に突出する接続端子４１が導電材料で形成されて発光モジュール１００と電気的に接続され、さらに、接続端子４１を把持するように絶縁材料で形成される絶縁板３１を含むので、接続端子４１から発光モジュール１００に発光させるための電力を供給できる。 Therefore, since the connecting portion 31 is installed on the deeper side of the groove than the light emitting module 100 in the large concave groove portion 21, electrical connection between the light emitting module 100 and the connecting portion 31 can be facilitated. Further, the connection portion 31 is formed of a conductive material with a connection terminal 41 protruding so as to be insertable into the socket 10 and is electrically connected to the light emitting module 100, and is further formed of an insulating material so as to hold the connection terminal 41. Since the insulating plate 31 is included, power for causing the light emitting module 100 to emit light from the connection terminal 41 can be supplied.
　絶縁板４２には、各接続端子４１と干渉しない位置にネジ固定用に貫通させた取付孔が設けられている。各接続端子４１を挟み込んだ絶縁板４２は、取付孔を貫通させた固定用ネジ５１により支持装置２０の本体に固定される。尚、接続部３１の固定は、ネジ止めに限らず、例えば接着剤等で支持装置２０の本体に固定してもよい。 The insulating plate 42 is provided with mounting holes that are penetrated for screw fixing at positions that do not interfere with the connection terminals 41. The insulating plate 42 sandwiching each connection terminal 41 is fixed to the main body of the support device 20 by a fixing screw 51 penetrating the mounting hole. Note that the fixing of the connection portion 31 is not limited to screwing, and may be fixed to the main body of the support device 20 with, for example, an adhesive.
　大凹溝部２１の長辺の両縁端部に設けられる接続部３１は、一端側のみが電源と発光モジュール１００に接続され、他端側は電源と発光モジュール１００に接続する必要はない。電源と発光モジュール１００に接続されない他端側は、例えば発光モジュール１００の複数のリード線１０４を短絡するのみでよい。又、本実施形態では、接続部３１の接続端子４１に発光モジュール１００のリード線１０４を直接に半田付け等で接続するが、発光モジュール１００のコネクタ１０５を利用して接続してもよい。本実施形態では、直列に配置される２枚の発光モジュール１００同士を接続するためには、発光モジュール１００のコネクタ１０５を用いている。 As for the connection part 31 provided in the both edge part of the long side of the large concave groove part 21, only one end side is connected to a power supply and the light emitting module 100, and it is not necessary to connect the other end side to a power supply and the light emitting module 100. The other end that is not connected to the power source and the light emitting module 100 only needs to short-circuit the plurality of lead wires 104 of the light emitting module 100, for example. In the present embodiment, the lead wire 104 of the light emitting module 100 is directly connected to the connection terminal 41 of the connection portion 31 by soldering or the like, but may be connected using the connector 105 of the light emitting module 100. In the present embodiment, the connector 105 of the light emitting module 100 is used to connect two light emitting modules 100 arranged in series.
　従って大凹溝部２１の長辺の両縁端部に設置される接続部３１は、一方は、発光モジュール１００と導電接続され、他方は発光モジュール１００とは導電接続されないようにしてもよい。この場合、部品点数と製造コストを低減できる。 Therefore, one of the connection portions 31 installed at both end portions of the long side of the large concave groove portion 21 may be conductively connected to the light emitting module 100 and the other may not be conductively connected to the light emitting module 100. In this case, the number of parts and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
　このように本実施形態の支持装置２０は、大凹溝部２１の長辺の両縁端部に、直管型蛍光灯９００の口金部９０１の接続ピンと同様な形状に形成される接続端子４１を含む接続部３１が設けられているので、発光モジュール１００を保持した状態で、ソケット１０に容易に設置できる。 As described above, the support device 20 of the present embodiment has the connection terminals 41 formed in the same shape as the connection pins of the base portion 901 of the straight tube type fluorescent lamp 900 at both end portions of the long side of the large concave groove portion 21. Since the connecting portion 31 including the light emitting module 100 is held, the connecting portion 31 can be easily installed in the socket 10.
　つまり発光モジュール１００の支持装置２０は、直管型蛍光灯９００を両端で保持可能であると共に点灯用の電力を供給可能であるソケット１０に、板状で所定の縦横寸法を有する略長方形の発光モジュール１００を照明装置として設置するための支持装置２０である。本実施形態の支持装置２０は、発光モジュール１００の短辺の寸法Ｌ３よりも小さい幅寸法で、直管型蛍光灯９００の長辺寸法Ｌ６と略同一の長さ寸法の大凹溝部２１と、直管型蛍光灯９００の口金部９０１の接続ピンと同様な形状に形成される接続端子４１を含み、大凹溝部２１の長辺の両縁端部に設置される接続部３１と、を有する。大凹溝部２１の左右内壁２２ａ及び２２ｂには、発光モジュール１００の長辺の辺縁端部の断面形状に略等しい断面形状で、大凹溝部２１に平行な小凹溝部２３が、左右対向する配置で各々形成される。又、各小凹溝部２３の対向する溝奥面部同士の間隔寸法は、発光モジュール１００の短辺の寸法Ｌ３と略同一である。
　これにより、発光モジュールを照明用として既存の直管型蛍光灯９００用のソケット１０に容易に設置でき、簡易な構成にすることができ、発光モジュールの変更及び交換を容易に実施することができる。 That is, the support device 20 of the light emitting module 100 is a plate-shaped, substantially rectangular light emitting device having predetermined vertical and horizontal dimensions to the socket 10 that can hold the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 at both ends and can supply power for lighting. It is the support apparatus 20 for installing the module 100 as an illuminating device. The support device 20 of the present embodiment includes a large concave groove portion 21 having a width dimension smaller than the short side dimension L3 of the light emitting module 100 and a length dimension substantially the same as the long side dimension L6 of the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900; It includes a connection terminal 41 that includes a connection terminal 41 formed in the same shape as the connection pin of the base portion 901 of the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900, and is installed at both end portions of the long side of the large concave groove portion 21. On the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large groove portion 21, a small groove portion 23 having a cross-sectional shape substantially equal to the cross-sectional shape of the long edge of the light emitting module 100 and parallel to the large groove portion 21 is opposed to the left and right. Each is formed by arrangement. In addition, the distance between the opposing groove back surfaces of each small groove 23 is substantially the same as the short side dimension L3 of the light emitting module 100.
As a result, the light emitting module can be easily installed in the socket 10 for the existing straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 for illumination, a simple configuration can be achieved, and the light emitting module can be easily changed and replaced. .
　間隔保持板６０及び６１は、発光モジュール１００と同様な厚み寸法と短辺寸法を有し、レール形状の各小凹溝部２３に、発光モジュール１００と同様に側面から摺動させて挿入される。間隔保持板６０及び６１の長辺寸法は、蛍光灯型照明装置１における両端に位置するソケット１０の間隔に対して、必要数量の発光モジュール１００の長辺の和では不足する寸法を補償する寸法である。間隔保持板６０を複数の発光モジュール１００の間に配置し、間隔保持板６１を発光モジュール１００とソケット１０との間に配置する。間隔保持板６０及び６１は、本実施形態では、例えば支持装置２０の本体との素材的な統一感が得られ、放熱性を良好にできるアルミの板を用いているが、それに限られるものではなく、任意の導電材料又は任意の絶縁材料で形成してよい。 The spacing plates 60 and 61 have the same thickness dimension and short side dimension as the light emitting module 100, and are inserted into the rail-shaped small groove portions 23 by sliding from the side surface in the same manner as the light emitting module 100. The long side dimensions of the spacing plates 60 and 61 are dimensions that compensate for the shortage of the required amount of the long side of the light emitting module 100 with respect to the distance between the sockets 10 located at both ends of the fluorescent lamp type lighting device 1. It is. The spacing plate 60 is disposed between the plurality of light emitting modules 100, and the spacing plate 61 is disposed between the light emitting modules 100 and the socket 10. In the present embodiment, the interval holding plates 60 and 61 are made of aluminum plates that can obtain a material unity with the main body of the support device 20 and can improve heat dissipation, but are not limited thereto. Instead, any conductive material or any insulating material may be used.
　本実施形態の蛍光灯型照明装置１は、取付天井面２００に取付部７０により固定される。取付部７０は、例えば支持フレーム形状又はボックス形状であってよい。取付部７０は、例えば取付ネジにより取付天井面２００に取付られる。 The fluorescent lamp type lighting device 1 of the present embodiment is fixed to the mounting ceiling surface 200 by the mounting portion 70. The attachment portion 70 may be, for example, a support frame shape or a box shape. The attachment part 70 is attached to the attachment ceiling surface 200 with an attachment screw, for example.
　取付部７０の内部には、本実施形態では発光モジュール１００専用の電源部３５０が設けられ、この電源部３５０と、少なくとも片側のソケット１０の配線を接続する。例えば両側のソケット１０の配線を電源部３５０に接続する場合には、両側の接続部３１の接続端子４１を発光モジュール１００のリード線１０４の一端と電気的に接続すればよい。例えば片側のソケット１０の配線のみを電源部３５０に接続する場合には、片側の接続部３１の接続端子４１のみを発光モジュール１００のリード線１０４の一端と電気的に接続し、他端側の接続部３１の接続端子４１又は他端側のリード線１０４をショートさせればよい。 In the present embodiment, a power supply unit 350 dedicated to the light emitting module 100 is provided inside the attachment unit 70, and the power supply unit 350 is connected to the wiring of the socket 10 on at least one side. For example, when the wirings of the sockets 10 on both sides are connected to the power supply unit 350, the connection terminals 41 of the connection units 31 on both sides may be electrically connected to one end of the lead wire 104 of the light emitting module 100. For example, when only the wiring of the socket 10 on one side is connected to the power supply unit 350, only the connection terminal 41 of the connection unit 31 on one side is electrically connected to one end of the lead wire 104 of the light emitting module 100, and What is necessary is just to short-circuit the connection terminal 41 of the connection part 31, or the lead wire 104 of the other end side.
　本実施形態で発光モジュール１００専用の電源部３５０を設ける理由は以下のようになる。既存の各方式の安定器の中には、安定器からの出力を変換用付加回路でＬＥＤ照明装置に対応させることが不可能なものがあった。つまり、蛍光灯型照明装置１に既存の全ての安定器がＬＥＤ照明装置用に電源として流用できるわけではなく、流用できない場合には、最終的に別途のＬＥＤ照明装置用の専用電源が必要であった。 The reason why the power supply unit 350 dedicated to the light emitting module 100 is provided in the present embodiment is as follows. Among existing ballasts, there is a ballast that cannot output the output from the ballast to the LED lighting device with a conversion additional circuit. That is, not all ballasts existing in the fluorescent lamp type lighting device 1 can be diverted as a power source for the LED lighting device, and if it cannot be diverted, a separate dedicated power source for the LED lighting device is finally required. there were.
　また、既存の安定器を流用できる場合も、安定器は蛍光灯の点灯方式に対応しており、定格電圧も通常は異なることから、ＬＥＤ照明装置にとっては余分又は過剰な機能を有し、点灯方式対応部分及び定格電圧変換部分等で、点灯用電力のロス及び変換ロス等が発生するため消費電力が高くなる。さらに、多様な方式の安定器に対応可能な変換装置等は、複雑で回路規模が大きくなることから消費電力も高くなり、製造コスト及びランニングコスト共に高くなる。 In addition, when the existing ballast can be diverted, the ballast is compatible with the lighting method of fluorescent lamps, and the rated voltage is usually different. Since a loss of power for lighting, a conversion loss, and the like occur in the part corresponding to the method and the rated voltage conversion part, the power consumption increases. Furthermore, a conversion device or the like that can support various types of ballasts is complicated and has a large circuit scale, so that power consumption is high, and both manufacturing cost and running cost are high.
　以上から、例えば、蛍光灯９００を本実施形態のＬＥＤ照明に切り替える現場作業において、蛍光灯型照明装置１の安定器の方式を判別後、流用不可能な場合に別途の電源を用意する工数及びコスト、判別後の流用可能な場合にそれに合わせた変換器を用意する工数及びコスト、判別後の流用可能な全方式に対応可能な変換器を用意する工数及びコスト、等を考慮した場合、既存の安定器の流用を考慮せずに、発光モジュール１００専用の電源部３５０を用いるように作業を限定することで、トータルの工数及びコストを削減できる。さらに、光モジュール１００専用の電源部３５０を用いることで、点灯用電力ロスや変換ロス等の余分な消費電力も発生しないようにできる。 From the above, for example, in the field work of switching the fluorescent lamp 900 to the LED lighting of the present embodiment, after determining the ballast method of the fluorescent lamp type lighting device 1, the man-hours for preparing a separate power source when the diversion is impossible Considering the cost, the man-hours and costs of preparing a converter that can be diverted after discrimination, the man-hours and costs of preparing a converter compatible with all applicable methods after discrimination, etc. By limiting the work to use the power supply unit 350 dedicated to the light emitting module 100 without considering diversion of the ballast, total man-hours and costs can be reduced. Further, by using the power supply unit 350 dedicated to the optical module 100, it is possible to prevent excessive power consumption such as lighting power loss and conversion loss.
　本実施形態の支持装置２０を用いる場合で、直管型蛍光灯９００を発光モジュール１００を交換する場合には、例えば、直管型蛍光灯９００を外し、蛍光灯型照明装置１の安定器に入力されていた商用電源の配線を専用の電源部３５０に入力させ、安定器とソケット１０とを接続する配線を外し、電源部３５０からの出力配線をソケット１０に接続する。 When the support device 20 of the present embodiment is used and the light-emitting module 100 is replaced with the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900, for example, the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 is removed and used as a ballast for the fluorescent lamp illumination device 1. The input commercial power supply wiring is input to the dedicated power supply unit 350, the wiring connecting the ballast and the socket 10 is disconnected, and the output wiring from the power supply unit 350 is connected to the socket 10.
　一方、支持装置２０には、例えば元の直管型蛍光灯９００が２０Ｗの場合は２枚、元の直管型蛍光灯９００が４０Ｗの場合は４枚の発光モジュール１００をレール形状の小凹溝部２３に挿入する。その際に、発光モジュール１００間と両端には、間隔保持板６０及び６１を挿入しておく。 On the other hand, the supporting device 20 includes, for example, two light emitting modules 100 when the original straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 is 20 W, and four light emitting modules 100 when the original straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 is 40 W. Insert into the groove 23. At that time, the spacing plates 60 and 61 are inserted between the light emitting modules 100 and at both ends.
　元の直管型蛍光灯９００のワット数に応じた必要枚数の発光モジュール１００が挿入された支持装置２０は、両端の接続部３１の接続端子４１がソケット１０に挿入されることで、直管型蛍光灯９００と同様にソケット１０に取り付けられる。 In the support device 20 in which the required number of light emitting modules 100 corresponding to the wattage of the original straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 is inserted, the connection terminals 41 of the connection portions 31 at both ends are inserted into the socket 10, so that the straight tube Like the fluorescent lamp 900, it is attached to the socket 10.
　支持装置２０内発光モジュール１００を交換する場合は、支持装置２０を上記と逆の手順で蛍光灯型照明装置１から外した後、交換する発光モジュール１００を、各小凹溝部２３（又は長辺）に沿う方向にスライドさせて支持装置２０の長辺の端部から取り出し、新しい発光モジュール１００を代わりに挿入して支持装置２０の所定位置に配置する。その後、新しい発光モジュール１００を他の発光モジュール１００又は接続端子４１と接続して、再度、蛍光灯型照明装置１に取り付ける。 When the light emitting module 100 in the support device 20 is replaced, the support device 20 is removed from the fluorescent lamp type lighting device 1 in the reverse procedure to the above, and then the light emitting module 100 to be replaced is replaced with each small groove 23 (or long side). ) Is taken out from the end of the long side of the support device 20, and a new light emitting module 100 is inserted instead and placed at a predetermined position of the support device 20. Thereafter, the new light emitting module 100 is connected to another light emitting module 100 or the connection terminal 41 and attached to the fluorescent lamp type illumination device 1 again.
　このように本実施形態の蛍光灯型照明装置１用の発光モジュール１００の支持装置２０によれば、発光モジュール１００を、直管型蛍光灯９００用のソケット１０に、その発光モジュール１００の数を任意に可変して、容易に設置することができる。より具体的には、本実施形態の支持装置２０の本体は、押し出し成形等による簡易な構成であり、蛍光灯型照明装置１の蛍光灯９００の代替えとして、蛍光灯９００のワット数に応じた数又はそれ以下の１０Ｗ単位の任意のワット数の発光モジュール１００を、左右の小凹溝部２３間に挿入して簡単な接続をするだけで設置でき、発光モジュール１００の変更及び交換が容易である。 As described above, according to the support device 20 for the light emitting module 100 for the fluorescent lamp illumination device 1 of the present embodiment, the light emitting module 100 is connected to the socket 10 for the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 and the number of the light emitting modules 100 is set. It can be arbitrarily changed and installed easily. More specifically, the main body of the support device 20 of the present embodiment has a simple configuration by extrusion molding or the like, and corresponds to the wattage of the fluorescent lamp 900 as an alternative to the fluorescent lamp 900 of the fluorescent lamp type lighting device 1. The light emitting module 100 of an arbitrary wattage of a few or less 10 W units can be installed by simply inserting it between the left and right small concave grooves 23 and making a simple connection, and the light emitting module 100 can be easily changed and replaced. .
＜第２実施形態＞
　上記した第１実施形態は、直管蛍光灯９００を１灯設置する形式の蛍光灯型照明装置であるが、複数の直管蛍光灯９００を並列に設置する形式の蛍光灯型照明装置もある。そして、直管蛍光灯９００を２灯、並列に設置する形式の照明装置の中には、背面反射部が２灯の中間をピークとして下側へ山形に突出する形態のものがある。その場合、ソケット１０は、その下側突出山形の各反射面に対して垂直方向に立設される。ここでは、例えばソケット１０が取付天井面２００に対する垂直方向から３０度だけ取付天井面２００側に傾いていることとする。 Second Embodiment
The first embodiment described above is a fluorescent lamp type illumination device in which one straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 is installed. However, there is also a fluorescent lamp type illumination device in which a plurality of straight tube fluorescent lamps 900 are installed in parallel. . Among the lighting apparatuses of the type in which two straight tube fluorescent lamps 900 are installed in parallel, there is a type in which the back reflecting portion protrudes downward in a mountain shape with the middle of the two lights as a peak. In this case, the socket 10 is erected in the vertical direction with respect to the respective reflecting surfaces of the lower protruding chevron. Here, for example, it is assumed that the socket 10 is inclined to the mounting ceiling surface 200 side by 30 degrees from the direction perpendicular to the mounting ceiling surface 200.
　この場合、発光源が蛍光灯９００である場合は全周面方向に発光するので発光角度を調整する必要はないが、指向性のあるＬＥＤの発光モジュール１００を蛍光灯９００に代えて用いる場合は、そのままでは照明効率が低下するため、照射方向が真下を向くように発光モジュールの基板の向きを３０度下向きにすることで、照明方向が取付天井面２００に対して垂直方向になるように補正する必要がある。 In this case, when the light source is the fluorescent lamp 900, it emits light in the entire circumferential direction, so there is no need to adjust the light emission angle. However, when the light emitting module 100 of a directional LED is used instead of the fluorescent lamp 900, Since the illumination efficiency decreases as it is, the illumination direction is corrected so that the illumination direction is perpendicular to the mounting ceiling surface 200 by turning the substrate of the light emitting module 30 degrees downward so that the irradiation direction is directed downward. There is a need to.
　ところで、従来の蛍光灯置換型ＬＥＤ照明装置の中には、ＬＥＤと基板との間のリードピンを基板面から少し浮かせた状態で取付けておき、そのピンの曲げ角度を調節することでＬＥＤの照射角度を調整できるものがある。角度の調節方法としては、例えば、発光モジュールの基板面から少し浮かせた状態で取付けられた複数のＬＥＤの上に、ＬＥＤのガイド穴を有する外装材を被せ、ガイド穴からＬＥＤを突出させることでＬＥＤの取付角度を調整するものがある。ガイド穴は、例えば、複数列のＬＥＤを長辺方向の列毎で、ＬＥＤ面の中心線から位置がずれる毎に少しずつ角度を外側に向けるように設けられている。この構成にすることでＬＥＤの照射範囲を広げている。 By the way, in the conventional fluorescent lamp replacement type LED lighting device, the lead pin between the LED and the substrate is mounted in a state slightly lifted from the substrate surface, and the LED irradiation is adjusted by adjusting the bending angle of the pin. Some can adjust the angle. As a method for adjusting the angle, for example, a plurality of LEDs mounted in a state of being slightly lifted from the substrate surface of the light emitting module are covered with an exterior material having LED guide holes, and the LEDs are projected from the guide holes. Some adjust the LED mounting angle. The guide holes are provided, for example, so that a plurality of rows of LEDs are arranged in the long side direction so that the angle is gradually turned outward each time the position is shifted from the center line of the LED surface. With this configuration, the irradiation range of the LED is expanded.
　従って、従来の蛍光灯置換型ＬＥＤ照明装置は、基板上のリード付きＬＥＤを、リード部分が折り曲げ可能であるように少し基板から浮かせて立設しておき、そのリードを曲げることで個々又は列ごとのＬＥＤの取付角度又は照射角度を調節しているが、発光モジュール基板自体の向きを調整しているわけではない。リードを曲げてＬＥＤの取付角度又は照射角度を調節する場合、発光モジュール基板自体の角度を変えて照射角度を調整する場合と比べて、個々のＬＥＤ毎のリード曲げ角の精度が低いため、照射角度のばらつきも大きくなる。 Accordingly, in the conventional fluorescent lamp replacement type LED lighting device, the LED with leads on the substrate is erected slightly from the substrate so that the lead portion can be bent, and the leads are bent individually or in a row. Although the mounting angle or irradiation angle of each LED is adjusted, the direction of the light emitting module substrate itself is not adjusted. When adjusting the LED mounting angle or irradiation angle by bending the lead, the accuracy of the lead bending angle for each LED is lower than when adjusting the irradiation angle by changing the angle of the light emitting module substrate itself. Angle variation also increases.
　図４は、本発明の第２実施形態の支持装置を蛍光灯照明装置に取り付けた場合の構成を示す下面図と側面図とＡ－Ａ断面図の端部拡大図である。 FIG. 4 is a bottom view, a side view, and an enlarged end view of an AA cross-sectional view showing a configuration when the support device of the second embodiment of the present invention is attached to a fluorescent lamp illumination device.
　本実施形態の蛍光灯型照明装置１における、図２及び図３に示した第１実施形態と比較した場合の主な相違点としては、背面反射部３００の形態が挙げられる。蛍光灯型照明装置１のその他の構成は、第１実施形態と同様であるので重複する記載を省略する。 In the fluorescent lamp type illumination device 1 of the present embodiment, the main difference when compared with the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is the form of the back reflector 300. Since the other structure of the fluorescent lamp type illumination device 1 is the same as that of the first embodiment, redundant description is omitted.
　背面反射部３００は、第１実施形態における取付部７０及び反射板１１の機能を有するが、形態は大きく異なり、並列２灯の直管蛍光灯９００の中間をピークとして下側へ山形に突出している。そのため、ソケット１０は、その下側に山形突出した各反射面に対しては垂直方向になるものの、取付天井面２００に対しては垂直方向から３０度だけ取付天井面２００側に傾いて立設されている。従って、第１実施形態の支持装置をそのまま用いると、指向性を有するＬＥＤ発光モジュールは３０度外側を向いて照射されることになり、照明効率が低下する。 The back reflecting unit 300 has the functions of the mounting unit 70 and the reflecting plate 11 in the first embodiment, but the forms are greatly different, and protrudes downward in a mountain shape with the middle of the two straight tube fluorescent lamps 900 as a peak. Yes. Therefore, although the socket 10 is perpendicular to each reflecting surface protruding in a mountain shape below the socket 10, the socket 10 is inclined to the mounting ceiling surface 200 side by 30 degrees from the vertical direction with respect to the mounting ceiling surface 200. Has been. Therefore, when the support device of the first embodiment is used as it is, the LED light emitting module having directivity is irradiated 30 degrees outward, and the illumination efficiency is lowered.
　そこで、本実施形態の支持装置２０では、大凹溝部２１の左右の各内壁２２ａ、２２ｂにおける一方の各小凹溝部２３よりも奥側、即ち発光モジュール１００の背面側（非発光側）に支持角度調整部２６を設けている。支持角度調整部２６は、発光モジュール１００が取付天井面２００に対して垂直に下方向を向いて取付できる寸法だけ、内壁２２ａ、２２ｂの一方を延伸させて形成する。 Therefore, in the support device 20 according to the present embodiment, the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large concave groove portion 21 are supported on the back side of one small concave groove portion 23, that is, on the back side (non-light emitting side) of the light emitting module 100. An angle adjustment unit 26 is provided. The support angle adjusting unit 26 is formed by extending one of the inner walls 22a and 22b to a dimension that allows the light emitting module 100 to be mounted vertically downward with respect to the mounting ceiling surface 200.
　このように本実施形態の蛍光灯型照明装置用の発光モジュールの支持装置によれば、大凹溝部２１に、発光モジュール１００を取付天井面２００に対して垂直方向を向くように取付できる支持角度調整部２６を備える。従って、直管蛍光灯９００用のソケット１０が蛍光灯型照明装置１の取付天井面２００に対する垂直方向から所定角度（３０度等）傾けて設置されている場合でも、発光モジュール１００が真下を向くようにソケット１０に取付できる。 Thus, according to the support device of the light emitting module for the fluorescent lamp type lighting device of the present embodiment, the support angle at which the light emitting module 100 can be mounted in the large concave groove portion 21 so as to face the mounting ceiling surface 200 in the vertical direction. An adjustment unit 26 is provided. Therefore, even when the socket 10 for the straight tube fluorescent lamp 900 is installed at a predetermined angle (such as 30 degrees) with respect to the vertical direction with respect to the mounting ceiling surface 200 of the fluorescent lamp type lighting device 1, the light emitting module 100 faces directly below. It can be attached to the socket 10 as described above.
　つまり本実施形態では、大凹溝部２１がソケット１０が照明装置の取付天井面２００に対する垂直方向から所定角度傾けて設置されている場合、発光モジュール１００を取付天井面２００に対して垂直方向を向くように取付できる支持角度調整部２６を備えるので、直管型蛍光灯９００用のソケット１０が照明装置の取付天井面２００に対する垂直方向から所定角度傾いて設置されていても、発光モジュールが真下を向くようにソケット１０に取付できる。 That is, in this embodiment, when the socket 10 is installed at a predetermined angle with respect to the vertical direction with respect to the mounting ceiling surface 200 of the lighting device, the large groove portion 21 faces the light emitting module 100 in the vertical direction with respect to the mounting ceiling surface 200. Thus, even if the socket 10 for the straight tube type fluorescent lamp 900 is installed at a predetermined angle with respect to the vertical direction with respect to the mounting ceiling surface 200 of the lighting device, the light emitting module is directly below. It can be attached to the socket 10 so as to face.
＜その他の実施形態＞
　図５（ａ）～（ｃ）は、本発明のその他の実施形態の支持装置の構成を示す拡大断面図である。
　図５（ａ）の支持装置１は、半透明カバー４００を有している。半透明カバー４００は、例えば磨りガラスのように、発光モジュール１００の光は透過させるが、被照射面側（半透明カバー４００の外側）からは見え辛い半透明に形成することが好ましい。透明なアクリル板等の高分子材料の板を利用する場合には、薄い乳白色等に着色してもよい。 <Other embodiments>
5 (a) to 5 (c) are enlarged cross-sectional views showing the configuration of a support device according to another embodiment of the present invention.
The support device 1 in FIG. 5A has a translucent cover 400. The semi-transparent cover 400 is preferably formed to be semi-transparent, such as frosted glass, though it allows the light of the light emitting module 100 to pass therethrough but is difficult to see from the irradiated surface side (outside the semi-transparent cover 400). When a polymer material plate such as a transparent acrylic plate is used, it may be colored light milky white or the like.
　半透明カバー４００の寸法は、例えば大凹溝部２１の左右の内壁２２ａ、２２ｂの開口端部に略同一の寸法で形成する。 The dimensions of the translucent cover 400 are, for example, substantially the same dimensions at the open end portions of the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large groove portion 21.
　そして、大凹溝部２１の左右の内壁２２ａ、２２ｂの開口端部近傍には、半透明カバー４００を支持できるように、半透明カバー４００の短辺寸法よりも大きい奥端部同士の間隔寸法になるように形成された凹部２４を設ける。又は、凹部２４に代えて、両側の大凹溝部２１の左右の内壁２２ａ、２２ｂに、半透明カバー４００の短辺寸法よりも小さい先端部同士の間隔寸法になるように形成された凸部を設けてもよい。 Then, in the vicinity of the opening end portions of the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large groove portion 21, the distance between the rear end portions is larger than the short side dimension of the semitransparent cover 400 so that the semitransparent cover 400 can be supported. A concave portion 24 formed to be is provided. Alternatively, instead of the recesses 24, convex portions formed on the left and right inner walls 22a, 22b of the large concave groove portions 21 on both sides so as to have a distance between the front ends smaller than the short side dimension of the translucent cover 400 are provided. It may be provided.
　このように半透明カバー４００を用いることで、発光モジュール１００の発光面が見えなくなるので、本実施形態の照明に間接照明的な上質感を与えることができる。 By using the translucent cover 400 in this way, the light emitting surface of the light emitting module 100 becomes invisible, so that it is possible to give an indirect illumination quality to the illumination of this embodiment.
　図５（ｂ）の支持装置１は、ルーバ５００を有している。ルーバ５００は、発光モジュール１００の照射面側に、その長辺方向に直交する向きの複数枚の遮光板を、長辺方向の所定間隔毎に設置したものである。又、長辺方向の所定間隔を維持するために、長辺方向に沿ってスペーサを設置してもよい。 The support device 1 in FIG. 5B has a louver 500. In the louver 500, a plurality of light shielding plates oriented in the direction perpendicular to the long side direction are installed on the irradiation surface side of the light emitting module 100 at predetermined intervals in the long side direction. In order to maintain a predetermined interval in the long side direction, a spacer may be provided along the long side direction.
　大凹溝部２１の左右の内壁２２ａ、２２ｂの開口端部近傍には、ルーバ５００を支持できるように、ルーバ５００の開口部側寸法よりも大きく、奥端部同士の間隔寸法になるように形成された凹部２４を設ける。又は、凹部２４に代えて、両側の大凹溝部２１の左右の内壁２２ａ、２２ｂに、ルーバ５００の開口部側寸法よりも小さい先端部同士の間隔寸法になるように形成された凸部を設けてもよい。 In the vicinity of the opening end portions of the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large concave groove portion 21, the louver 500 is formed so as to be larger than the opening portion side dimension of the louver 500 and to have a distance between the rear end portions. A recessed portion 24 is provided. Alternatively, in place of the recess 24, the left and right inner walls 22a and 22b of the large concave groove portions 21 on both sides are provided with convex portions formed so as to have a distance between the tip portions smaller than the size of the opening side of the louver 500. May be.
　このようにルーバ５００を用いることで、発光モジュール１００の長辺方向の直接光の照射範囲を限定し、発光モジュール１００の発光面を直接光の照射範囲外から見え辛くすることができるので、本実施形態の照明に間接照明的な上質感を与えることができる。 By using the louver 500 in this manner, the direct light irradiation range in the long side direction of the light emitting module 100 can be limited and the light emitting surface of the light emitting module 100 can be hardly seen from outside the direct light irradiation range. An indirect lighting-like quality can be given to the illumination of the embodiment.
　図５（ｃ）の支持装置１は、大凹溝部２１の長辺の両端部に、その断面開口を閉じることができる形状の端版６００を有している。端版６００には、端版６００を大凹溝部２１へ螺子止めするため、螺子が螺子頭部を残して貫通する螺子穴６０１と、接続部３１の接続端子４１が周囲の端版６００と絶縁距離を維持しつつ貫通する接続端子穴６０２とが設けられる。一方、大凹溝部２１の外周には、端板６００を貫通した取付ネジ８０を支持できるように、取付凹部２５が設けられる。尚、取付凹部２５は、大凹溝部２１の内周に設けられても良い。 The support device 1 in FIG. 5C has end plates 600 having shapes that can close the cross-sectional openings at both ends of the long side of the large concave groove 21. In the end plate 600, the end plate 600 is screwed to the large concave groove portion 21, so that the screw hole 601 through which the screw passes leaving the screw head and the connection terminal 41 of the connection portion 31 are insulated from the surrounding end plate 600. A connection terminal hole 602 that penetrates while maintaining the distance is provided. On the other hand, a mounting recess 25 is provided on the outer periphery of the large recess groove 21 so that the mounting screw 80 penetrating the end plate 600 can be supported. The mounting recess 25 may be provided on the inner periphery of the large groove 21.
　このように大凹溝部２１の両端部に端版６００を設けることで、大凹溝部２１の端部の断面が見えなくなるので、本実施形態の蛍光灯型照明装置１に上質感を与えることができる。 By providing the end plates 600 at both ends of the large concave groove portion 21 in this way, the cross section of the end portion of the large concave groove portion 21 becomes invisible, so that it is possible to give the fluorescent lamp type illumination device 1 of this embodiment a high quality. it can.
　以上、本発明に係る発光モジュールの支持装置を実施形態を用いて説明したが、本発明の技術的範囲は上記実施の形態に記載された支持装置の範囲には限定されない。例えば、直管蛍光灯９００を３灯以上設置する形式の蛍光灯型照明装置にも適用することができ、第２実施形態とは異なる角度の反射板を備える蛍光灯型照明装置にも適用することができる。 As mentioned above, although the support apparatus of the light emitting module which concerns on this invention was demonstrated using embodiment, the technical scope of this invention is not limited to the range of the support apparatus described in the said embodiment. For example, the present invention can be applied to a fluorescent lamp type illuminating device in which three or more straight tube fluorescent lamps 900 are installed, and is also applied to a fluorescent lamp type illuminating device including a reflector having an angle different from that of the second embodiment. be able to.
