　近年、導光板を利用した薄型の照明装置が種々提案されている。特許文献１には、棒状の導光板と、薄い面状の導光板を組み合わせて広い照射エリアを確保するＬＥＤ（Ｌｉｇｈｔ　Ｅｍｉｔｔｉｎｇ　Ｄｉｏｄｅ）面光源装置が提案されている。図１２は、特許文献１に示された面光源装置の概略図である。光源モジュール１２０１からの光を一旦、棒状の導光板１２０２の端面から入射させ、さらに、この棒状の導光板１２０２の側面から、これよりも厚みの薄く透明な樹脂で接着された面状の導光板１２０３に光を入射し、この面状の導光板１２０３から光を取り出す。このような構成にすることで、面状の導光板１２０３が薄く大きいサイズになっても光源モジュール１２０１そのものが必要な光量を確保するために大きくなることは無い。また、特許文献２には、２枚の導光板への導入光量が調整可能な両面発光面状光源が提案されている。図１３は特許文献２に示された両面発光面状光源の概略図である。反射板１３０３を挟んで積層された２枚の導光板１３０１、１３０２に対して一つの光源１３０４で導光板１３０１、１３０２への導入光量を調整し、両面発光を行っている。 In recent years, various thin lighting devices using a light guide plate have been proposed. Patent Document 1 proposes an LED (Light Emitting Diode) surface light source device that secures a wide irradiation area by combining a bar-shaped light guide plate and a thin planar light guide plate. FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of the surface light source device disclosed in Patent Document 1. Light from the light source module 1201 is once incident on the end surface of the rod-shaped light guide plate 1202, and further, a planar light guide plate bonded from the side surface of the rod-shaped light guide plate 1202 with a transparent resin that is thinner than this. Light is incident on 1203 and light is extracted from the planar light guide plate 1203. By adopting such a configuration, even if the planar light guide plate 1203 is thin and large, the light source module 1201 itself does not become large in order to secure a necessary amount of light. Patent Document 2 proposes a double-sided light emitting planar light source that can adjust the amount of light introduced into two light guide plates. FIG. 13 is a schematic view of a double-sided light emitting surface light source disclosed in Patent Document 2. The light quantity introduced into the light guide plates 1301 and 1302 is adjusted by one light source 1304 with respect to the two light guide plates 1301 and 1302 stacked with the reflection plate 1303 interposed therebetween, and double-sided light emission is performed.
日本国公開特許公報「特開平１１－２３２９２１号公報（平成１１年８月２７日公開）」Japanese Patent Publication “Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-232921 (published on August 27, 1999)” 日本国公開特許公報「特開２００５－５０６３０号公報（平成１７年２月２４日公開）」Japanese Patent Publication “Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-50630 (published on February 24, 2005)”
　しかしながら、特許文献１に示された面光源装置では、光源モジュール１２０１からの光は、まず、棒状の導光板１２０２に入り、その後、面状の導光板１２０３に入射するため、光源モジュール１２０１からの熱により、導光板１２０２が変形しやすい。導光板１２０２と導光板１２０３が一体成型されている場合、これら導光板の熱膨張率は同じであるが、光源モジュール１２０１からの熱の伝わり方に違いがあるため、吸収する熱量に違いが生じ、２つの導光板の線膨張が異なり、ひずみが生じる。また、導光板１２０２と導光板１２０３を別々に成型し組み立てた場合も、光源モジュール１２０１から伝わる熱量に違いがあるため、これら導光板の膨張に差が生じ、ずれやひずみが生じる可能性がある。また、特許文献２に示された両面発光面状光源は、２枚の導光板１３０１、１３０２は端部で筐体１３０５に挟まれて固定されているため、環境温度が変化した際に、導光板１３０１、導光板１３０２と筐体１３０５の熱膨張率の違いにより部材が変形し、組み立ての際の部品とのひずみや位置ずれが光学性能の低下に繋がる可能性がある。 However, in the surface light source device disclosed in Patent Document 1, light from the light source module 1201 first enters the rod-shaped light guide plate 1202 and then enters the planar light guide plate 1203. The light guide plate 1202 is easily deformed by heat. In the case where the light guide plate 1202 and the light guide plate 1203 are integrally molded, the thermal expansion coefficients of these light guide plates are the same, but there is a difference in how heat is transmitted from the light source module 1201, so a difference occurs in the amount of heat absorbed. The linear expansion of the two light guide plates is different and distortion occurs. In addition, even when the light guide plate 1202 and the light guide plate 1203 are separately molded and assembled, there is a difference in the amount of heat transmitted from the light source module 1201, which may cause a difference in expansion of these light guide plates, resulting in deviation or distortion. . In the double-sided light emitting planar light source disclosed in Patent Document 2, the two light guide plates 1301 and 1302 are fixed by being sandwiched between the casings 1305 at the ends, so that they are guided when the environmental temperature changes. The members may be deformed due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the light plate 1301, the light guide plate 1302, and the housing 1305, and distortion or misalignment with components during assembly may lead to a decrease in optical performance.

　以下、本発明の実施形態１に係る照明装置１００について、図１～図７に基づいて説明する。なお、本発明の図面において、同一の参照符号は、同一部分または相当部分を表わすものとする。 <Embodiment 1>
Hereinafter, an illumination device 100 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the drawings of the present invention, the same reference numerals represent the same or corresponding parts.
　図１（ａ）は照明装置１００の第１導光手段１１側から見た図であり、図１（ｂ）は照明装置１００の第２導光手段１２側から見た図である。また、図２は照明装置１００の分解図、図３は、ベース部分の拡大図である。なお、図１では、光源４を図示するために、カバー７を省略している。 FIG. 1A is a diagram viewed from the first light guide unit 11 side of the illumination device 100, and FIG. 1B is a diagram viewed from the second light guide unit 12 side of the illumination device 100. FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the lighting device 100, and FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the base portion. In FIG. 1, the cover 7 is omitted to illustrate the light source 4.
　（照明装置の構成）
　本実施形態における照明装置１００は、第１導光手段１１と、第２導光手段１２と、上記２つの導光手段の間に介在するベース３と、図３に示すように、ベース３に設置され、上記第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２に光を入射する光源４と、上記２つの導光手段とベース３の間に介在する反射手段５と、上記２つの導光手段と光源４の結合部付近に配置された結合部反射手段６と、上記２つの導光手段と光源４の結合部を覆うカバー７と、上記第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２の全周を覆う外枠１０から構成されている。 (Configuration of lighting device)
The illuminating device 100 in this embodiment includes a first light guide means 11, a second light guide means 12, a base 3 interposed between the two light guide means, and a base 3 as shown in FIG. A light source 4 that is installed and makes light incident on the first light guide means 11 and the second light guide means 12, a reflection means 5 interposed between the two light guide means and the base 3, and the two light guides. A coupling portion reflecting means 6 disposed in the vicinity of the coupling portion between the means and the light source 4, a cover 7 covering the coupling portion between the two light guiding means and the light source 4, the first light guiding means 11, and the second light guiding means. The outer frame 10 covers the entire circumference of the twelve.
　（導光手段の位置決め）
　図４は、ベース３に対する第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２の位置決め手段に関して説明した図である。ベース３に対する第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２の位置決めは、ベース３に設けられた位置決めピン８と、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２に設けられたピン受け部９を係合することで行われている。ベース３には上記で説明したように、光源４が取り付けられているため、位置決めピン８とピン受け部９とを係合することで、光源４と第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２との位置合わせを正確かつ容易に行うことが可能となる。 (Positioning of light guide means)
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating the positioning means of the first light guide means 11 and the second light guide means 12 with respect to the base 3. The first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12 are positioned with respect to the base 3 by positioning pins 8 provided on the base 3 and pin receivers provided on the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12. This is done by engaging the part 9. Since the light source 4 is attached to the base 3 as described above, the light source 4, the first light guide means 11, and the second light guide are engaged by engaging the positioning pin 8 and the pin receiving portion 9. Positioning with the means 12 can be performed accurately and easily.
　ここでは、第１導光手段１１を例に説明するが、第２導光手段１２についても同様である。位置決めピン８は、図４右下図の円で囲まれた位置に、ベース３の上下両面に突出して設けられており、また、第１導光手段１１に設けられたピン受け部９の形状は、導光手段の径方向に倣ったＵ字形状となっている。位置決めピン８とピン受け部９とを係合させた状態において、位置決めピン８とピン受け部９の間は空隙Ｗを有している。これは、照明装置使用時に、光源４からの熱や、環境温度の変化による部材の膨張や収縮に対応し、部材の歪みや撓みの発生を防止するためである。特に本実施形態のように両面発光する照明装置では、光源４の数やパワーが大きいことが多く、照明装置に熱の影響が出る可能性が高い。ピン受け部９の形状を位置決めピン８の外周よりもやや大きめにして、空隙Ｗを持たせることにより、温度変化に伴いう部材の膨張、収縮による照明装置への影響を抑えることができる。 Here, the first light guide unit 11 will be described as an example, but the same applies to the second light guide unit 12. The positioning pins 8 are provided so as to protrude from both the upper and lower surfaces of the base 3 at positions surrounded by a circle in the lower right diagram of FIG. 4, and the shape of the pin receiving portion 9 provided in the first light guide means 11 is The U-shape follows the radial direction of the light guide means. In a state where the positioning pin 8 and the pin receiving portion 9 are engaged, there is a gap W between the positioning pin 8 and the pin receiving portion 9. This is to prevent the member from being distorted or bent in response to heat from the light source 4 or expansion or contraction of the member due to a change in environmental temperature when the lighting device is used. In particular, in a lighting device that emits light on both sides as in this embodiment, the number and power of the light sources 4 are often large, and there is a high possibility that the lighting device will be affected by heat. By making the shape of the pin receiving portion 9 slightly larger than the outer periphery of the positioning pin 8 and providing the gap W, it is possible to suppress the influence on the lighting device due to the expansion and contraction of the member accompanying the temperature change.
　なお、位置決めピン８とピン受け部９の大きさ、形状、位置、個数については、照明装置１００の仕様により適宜設定されればよいが、特に個数については、図４の右下図に示したように片面について等間隔に４個設けられることが望ましい。このように設けることで、上面から見て左右、上下いずれにも導光手段とベースがずれることが少ない。さらに、今実施形態では、ベース３に位置決めピン８、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２にピン受け部９を設けたが、ベース３にピン受け部９、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２に位置決めピン８を設けても構わない。 Note that the size, shape, position, and number of the positioning pins 8 and the pin receiving portions 9 may be set as appropriate according to the specifications of the lighting device 100. In particular, the numbers are as shown in the lower right diagram of FIG. It is desirable that four are provided at equal intervals on one side. By providing in this way, the light guiding means and the base are less likely to be displaced in the left, right, and upper and lower directions when viewed from above. Further, in the present embodiment, the positioning pin 8, the first light guide means 11, and the second light guide means 12 are provided on the base 3, but the pin receiver 9 and the first light guide means are provided on the base 3. 11. Positioning pins 8 may be provided on the second light guide means 12.
　（光源と導光手段の関係）
　図５は、本実施形態に係る照明装置１００の断面図であり、光源４と第１導光手段１１、及び第２導光手段１２との結合部および、それぞれの導光手段の入射面、出射面について説明した図である。 (Relation between light source and light guide)
FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the illumination device 100 according to the present embodiment, where the light source 4 is coupled to the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12, and the incident surface of each light guide unit. It is a figure explaining the output surface.
　第１導光手段１１は、主にアクリル樹脂から成り、入射面１１１と、出射面１１２を有しており、入射面１１１と出射面１１２は略垂直な位置関係となっている。同様に、第２導光手段１２も主にアクリル樹脂から成り、入射面１２１と、出射面１２２を有しており、入射面１２１と出射面１２２との位置関係は略垂直である。 The first light guide means 11 is mainly made of acrylic resin, and has an incident surface 111 and an output surface 112, and the incident surface 111 and the output surface 112 are in a substantially vertical positional relationship. Similarly, the second light guiding means 12 is also mainly made of acrylic resin, and has an incident surface 121 and an output surface 122, and the positional relationship between the incident surface 121 and the output surface 122 is substantially vertical.
　光源４は、第１導光手段１１に対して光を入射する第１光源４１と、第２導光手段２に対して光を入射する第２光源４２から構成されている。第１光源４１と第２光源４２はそれぞれ入射面１１１と入射面１２１に対向して配置されている。本実施形態において、第１光源４１と第２光源４２はそれぞれ複数のＬＥＤから構成されている。第１光源４１は第１光源制御手段４１０によって制御され、第２光源４２は第２光源制御手段４２０によって制御される。このように、光源４を、第１導光手段１１用の第１光源４１と、第２導光手段１２用の第２光源４２とで構成することにより、第１光源４１、第２光源４２の光出力を個別で調整することが可能となり、その結果、出射面１１２、出射面１２２からの取り出し光の光量調整が可能となっている。 The light source 4 includes a first light source 41 that makes light incident on the first light guide unit 11 and a second light source 42 that makes light incident on the second light guide unit 2. The 1st light source 41 and the 2nd light source 42 are arrange | positioned facing the entrance plane 111 and the entrance plane 121, respectively. In the present embodiment, each of the first light source 41 and the second light source 42 includes a plurality of LEDs. The first light source 41 is controlled by the first light source control unit 410, and the second light source 42 is controlled by the second light source control unit 420. As described above, the light source 4 is configured by the first light source 41 for the first light guide unit 11 and the second light source 42 for the second light guide unit 12, thereby the first light source 41 and the second light source 42. It is possible to individually adjust the light output, and as a result, it is possible to adjust the amount of light extracted from the exit surface 112 and the exit surface 122.
　第１導光手段１１および第２導光手段１２のそれぞれの出射面１１２、出射面１２２に対向する対向面１１３、対向面１２３には、図示しない拡散印刷、プリズム、マイクロレンズ等の拡散パターンが施されている。これら拡散パターンは、入射面１１１、入射面１２１から入射される第１光源４１、第２光源４２からの出射光を出射面１１２、出射面１２２側に取り出す働きをするものである。 Each of the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12 has a light emission surface 112, a counter surface 113 facing the light output surface 122, and a counter surface 123 having diffusion patterns such as diffusion printing, prisms, and microlenses (not shown). It has been subjected. These diffusion patterns serve to extract the outgoing light from the first light source 41 and the second light source 42 incident from the incident surface 111 and the incident surface 121 to the exit surface 112 and the exit surface 122 side.
　反射手段５は、第１導光手段１１とベース３の間、および第２導光手段１２とベース３の間に挟まれる形で配置されている。反射手段５は、それぞれの導光手段の出射面に対向する対向面１１３、対向面１２３より出た光を反射し、出射面１１２、出射面１２２から再度取り出すことによって、光をより有効利用するために用いられる。 The reflecting means 5 is disposed between the first light guide means 11 and the base 3 and between the second light guide means 12 and the base 3. The reflection means 5 reflects light emitted from the facing surface 113 and the facing surface 123 facing the exit surface of each light guide means, and takes out the light from the exit surface 112 and the exit surface 122 again, thereby making more effective use of the light. Used for.
　（結合部について）
　光源４と第１導光手段１１および第２導光手段１２の結合部近辺には、結合部反射部材６が設けられている。光源４から出射する光は拡がりをもっているため、放射角の大きい一部の光は第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２のそれぞれの入射面に入射されない。よって、入射面から外れてしまう光を反射により再度入射面に導き、光源４からの光の利用効率を向上できるように、結合部反射部材６が配置されている。 (About the joint)
A coupling portion reflecting member 6 is provided in the vicinity of the coupling portion between the light source 4, the first light guide unit 11, and the second light guide unit 12. Since the light emitted from the light source 4 has a spread, some light having a large radiation angle is not incident on the respective incident surfaces of the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12. Therefore, the coupling portion reflecting member 6 is arranged so that light that is off the incident surface can be guided to the incident surface again by reflection and the light use efficiency from the light source 4 can be improved.
　（第１光源、第２光源の構成と色調整について）
　図６は、第１光源４１、第２光源４２の構成を詳細に示した図である。第１光源４１、第２光源４２には、それぞれ白色ＬＥＤ４３と、電球色ＬＥＤ４４が複数混在して配置されている。このような構成とすることで、出射面１１２、出射面１２２からの取り出し光の色調制御が可能となっている。例えば、出射面１１２、出射面１２２から白色の光を取り出したい場合は、白色ＬＥＤ４３のみを点灯させればよく、電球色の光を取り出したい場合は、電球色ＬＥＤ４４のみを点灯させればよい。また、白色ＬＥＤ４３と電球色ＬＥＤ４４同時に点灯し、各色の光量の割合を調整することにより、出射面１１２、出射面１２２からの取り出し光の色調を変化させることが可能となる。 (Regarding the configuration and color adjustment of the first light source and the second light source)
FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the configuration of the first light source 41 and the second light source 42 in detail. In the first light source 41 and the second light source 42, a plurality of white LEDs 43 and a plurality of light bulb color LEDs 44 are mixed. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to control the color tone of light extracted from the emission surface 112 and the emission surface 122. For example, when it is desired to extract white light from the emission surface 112 and the emission surface 122, only the white LED 43 needs to be lit. Further, by turning on the white LED 43 and the light bulb color LED 44 at the same time and adjusting the ratio of the amount of light of each color, it is possible to change the color tone of the light extracted from the emission surface 112 and the emission surface 122.
　さらに、第１光源４１、第２光源４２は、第１光源制御手段４１０、第２光源制御手段４２０によりそれぞれ独立で制御可能であるため、出射面１１２、出射面１２２からの取り出し光はそれぞれ独立で色調の制御を行うことが可能となっている。 Furthermore, since the first light source 41 and the second light source 42 can be controlled independently by the first light source control means 410 and the second light source control means 420, the light extracted from the emission surface 112 and the emission surface 122 is independent. It is possible to control the color tone.
　本実施形態では、色調制御を行うための光源の構成として、白色と電球色のＬＥＤ光源を使用しているが、使用する光源の種類や色、配列についてはこれに限らず、目的に応じて、種類や色、配列、個数を適宜決定すればよい。 In the present embodiment, white and bulb-color LED light sources are used as the configuration of the light source for color tone control. However, the type, color, and arrangement of the light sources to be used are not limited to this, and depending on the purpose. The type, color, arrangement, and number may be determined as appropriate.
　（導光手段内周部の固定方法）
　図５に示すように、光源４と各導光手段の結合部付近は、上下二つのカバー７に挟まれる形で覆われているため、塵や埃の進入を防ぐことが可能となっている。カバー７は、基本的には軽量のものが望ましく、デザイン性などを考慮して決定されれば良い。また、上下のカバー７の外周部が、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２を固定しているため、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２それぞれの上下方向の位置を規制しており、重力方向に発生する導光手段の撓みを抑える効果がある。上下のカバー７は、図３に示すベース３の内側の凹凸部と位置あわせをして組み合わせ、ねじ止め固定される。 (Fixing method of inner periphery of light guide means)
As shown in FIG. 5, the vicinity of the coupling portion between the light source 4 and each light guide means is covered so as to be sandwiched between two upper and lower covers 7, so that dust and dust can be prevented from entering. . The cover 7 is basically preferably lightweight, and may be determined in consideration of design and the like. Moreover, since the outer peripheral part of the upper and lower covers 7 fixes the first light guide means 11 and the second light guide means 12, the vertical positions of the first light guide means 11 and the second light guide means 12 respectively. And is effective in suppressing the bending of the light guide means generated in the direction of gravity. The upper and lower covers 7 are aligned and combined with the concave and convex portions inside the base 3 shown in FIG.
　（導光手段外周部の固定方法）
　図７は、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２の外周部における固定方法について説明した図である。第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２の外周部は、外枠１０によって固定され、一体となっている。導光手段と外枠１０との固定方法に関しては、例えば接着剤や溶着など、強固に接着固定できる方法であればどの方法でも構わない。外枠１０に用いられる材料は、熱膨張に耐えうる材質であって、望ましくは導光手段と同じかそれに近い熱膨張率を備えるものが望ましい。具体的には、例えばアクリル樹脂、ポリカーボネート、ＡＢＳ樹脂、アルミなどが用いられる。 (Fixing method of outer periphery of light guide means)
FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining a fixing method in the outer peripheral portion of the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12. The outer peripheral portions of the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12 are fixed by the outer frame 10 and are integrated. As a method for fixing the light guide means and the outer frame 10, any method may be used as long as it can be firmly bonded and fixed, for example, an adhesive or welding. The material used for the outer frame 10 is a material that can withstand thermal expansion, and preferably has a thermal expansion coefficient that is the same as or close to that of the light guide means. Specifically, for example, acrylic resin, polycarbonate, ABS resin, aluminum or the like is used.
　組立の方法としては、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２をベース３に対して、位置決めピン８とピン受け部９の係合によりベース３に対して位置決めを行った後、各導光手段を外枠１０に対して固定することにより、各導光手段はどの姿勢においてもベース３から外れなくなる。 As an assembly method, after positioning the first light guide means 11 and the second light guide means 12 with respect to the base 3 with respect to the base 3 by engaging the positioning pins 8 and the pin receiving portions 9, By fixing the light guide means to the outer frame 10, each light guide means does not come off the base 3 in any posture.
　上記のような固定方法を用いると、各導光手段はベース３に対してネジ止めや接着等で直接固定する必要が無い。導光手段とベース３をネジ止めや接着等で直接固定した場合、環境温度が変化した場合、あるいは光源４の点灯により、熱が発生すると、各部材の熱膨張率の違いから、各導光手段やベース３に歪みが発生し、その結果、光源４と各導光手段の入射面１１１、入射面１２１との間に位置ずれが発生し、光学性能が低下する。しかし、本実施形態の構成によれば、第１導光手段１１、第２の導光手段１２はベース３に対して接着剤などを用いて完全に固定されているわけではないため、熱膨張率の違いにより発生する部材の歪みを防ぐことが可能となっている。 When the fixing method as described above is used, each light guide means does not need to be directly fixed to the base 3 by screwing or bonding. When the light guide means and the base 3 are directly fixed by screwing, bonding, or the like, when the environmental temperature changes, or when heat is generated due to the lighting of the light source 4, each light guide means from the difference in thermal expansion coefficient of each member. As a result, distortion occurs in the means and the base 3, and as a result, a positional shift occurs between the light source 4 and the incident surface 111 and the incident surface 121 of each light guide means, and the optical performance is deteriorated. However, according to the configuration of the present embodiment, the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12 are not completely fixed to the base 3 using an adhesive or the like. It is possible to prevent member distortion caused by the difference in rate.
　また、外枠１０は、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２の全周を覆うように固定されているため、外周部から導光手段の対向面１１３、対向面１２３側への塵や埃の侵入を防ぎ、光学特性の低下を防止することが可能となっている。 Further, since the outer frame 10 is fixed so as to cover the entire circumference of the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12, the outer frame 10 faces the opposing surface 113 and the opposing surface 123 side of the light guide unit. It is possible to prevent dust and dust from entering and prevent deterioration of optical characteristics.
　ここで、外枠１０の熱膨張率は、第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２の熱膨張率と略同一であれば、なお好ましい。外枠１０と第１導光手段１１、第２導光手段１２とで熱膨張率が異なる場合、環境温度が変化した際に、各部材を接着固定しているため、部材に歪みが生じるが、固定する各部材の熱膨張率を略同一とすることにより、環境温度変化時における歪みを低減することが可能となる。 Here, it is more preferable that the thermal expansion coefficient of the outer frame 10 is substantially the same as that of the first light guide means 11 and the second light guide means 12. When the outer frame 10 and the first light guide unit 11 and the second light guide unit 12 have different coefficients of thermal expansion, the members are bonded and fixed when the environmental temperature changes. By making the thermal expansion coefficient of each member to be fixed substantially the same, it becomes possible to reduce the distortion at the time of environmental temperature change.
　（照明装置の設置）
　次に照明装置の設置について説明する。本実施形態では、両面発光の照明装置１００を例に説明しているため、照明装置１００はワイヤーにより吊り下げる方式となっている。なお、照明装置１００の仕様によっては、天井に直接固定しても良い。直接固定の場合は、天井に設置されたLED用の電源と、光源４を配線によって接続する。吊り下げ方式の場合は、天井に設置されたLED電源からワイヤーを垂らし、照明器具１００を吊り下げる。 (Installation of lighting equipment)
Next, installation of the lighting device will be described. In this embodiment, since the illumination device 100 with double-sided light emission is described as an example, the illumination device 100 is suspended by a wire. Note that, depending on the specifications of the lighting device 100, it may be directly fixed to the ceiling. In the case of direct fixing, the LED power source installed on the ceiling and the light source 4 are connected by wiring. In the case of the hanging method, a wire is hung from the LED power source installed on the ceiling, and the lighting apparatus 100 is suspended.
　ワイヤーの先端は、照明器具のベース３あるいはカバー７に設けられた吊り下げ金具と連結される。吊り下げ方式の場合の電源と光源間の配線方法としては、吊り下げ用のワイヤーと配線を兼用にしても良いし、電源と光源を繋ぐ配線を別に配しても良い。この場合、配線は１本でよい。 The tip of the wire is connected to a hanging fitting provided on the base 3 or cover 7 of the lighting fixture. As a wiring method between the power source and the light source in the case of the suspension method, the suspension wire and the wiring may be used together, or the wiring connecting the power source and the light source may be separately provided. In this case, only one wiring is sufficient.
