Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of light emitting diodes, and more specifically to colour conversion of light emitting diodes.
  • LEDs Light emitting diodes, LEDs, are employed in a wide range of lighting applications. LED light sources are, for example, used to produce white light, and different light qualities are required for different applications. For some applications there is a desire to provide white light having a colour temperature of e.g. approximately 2700K, i.e. a warm white light, while for other applications there is a desire to provide white light having a colour temperature of e.g. approximately 6000K, i.e. a cool white light.
  • a colour temperature of e.g. approximately 2700K i.e. a warm white light
  • 6000K i.e. a cool white light.
  • one approach is to coat blue LED(s) with a phosphor.
  • a fraction of the blue light from the blue LED is thereby being transformed by the phosphor from shorter wavelengths to longer wavelengths, thereby producing so-called phosphor based white LEDs.
  • the characteristics of the white light e.g. the colour temperature, can be changed or varied by providing different phosphor materials.
  • the white light characteristics may also be varied by providing different thickness and/or coating of the phosphor.
  • LEDs providing white light of different temperature are often used and mixed with each other. For example, an LED providing a cool white light may be combined and mixed with an LED providing a warmer white light.
  • a lighting arrangement comprising a first group of light sources comprising at least one LED providing white light having a first colour temperature, a second group of light sources comprising at least one LED providing white light having a second colour temperature, and a third group of light sources comprising at least one LED providing a light having a predetermined dominant wavelength; wherein the third group of light sources is configured to receive a light converting device comprising a phosphor, the light converting device configured for converting light from the third group of light sources to white light having a third colour temperature, wherein the light converting device is configured to have electrical connection means for providing an electrical connection between one of the first and the second group of light sources and the third group of light sources.
  • the present invention is based on the insight that the lighting arrangement may be provided with a third group of light sources comprising at least one LED providing light having a predetermined dominant wavelength and configured to receive the light converting device having electrical connection means that may be adaptively connected to one of the first or the second group of light sources.
  • the total light emitted by the lighting arrangement may thus be controlled and adjusted based on the specific desired output of white colour temperature from the lighting arrangement, by selectively connecting the third group of light sources to be electrically controlled together and in conjunction with either the first or the second group of light sources.
  • the colour temperature may be adjusted by configuring the third group, using the predetermined dominant wavelength and the light converting device, to provide a warmer white colour temperature, thereby compensating for the slightly cooler colour temperature of the first group of light sources.
  • adjustment of the lighting arrangement is thus made possible without having to resort to controlling the third group of light sources separately.
  • the phosphor of the light converting device may be selected such that the third colour temperature is warmer (i.e. lower Kelvin) than the first colour temperature.
  • the same is of course valid in case of having a first group providing a white colour temperature which is slightly warmer than desired and thereby compensating by configuring the third group of light sources to provide a cooler white colour temperature.
  • the total output of white light from the lighting arrangement may be adjusted to fulfil the criteria of desired white light output from the lighting arrangement.
  • An advantage is, at least, that the LEDs of the first and the second group may be selected more freely and possibly be compensated in terms of white colour temperature by means of the third group of light sources.
  • the present invention is not limited to a specific type and characteristic of the phosphor arranged in the light converting device, i.e. the choice of material, thickness, coating, etc. of the phosphor may be varied depending on e.g. the desired output of white light from the light converting device.
  • each of the first and the second group of light sources may also be equipped with at least one LED arranged with a phosphor in order to provide white light having the first and the second colour temperature.
  • the characteristics of the phosphor may be different for the first and the second group of light sources in order to provide different white colour temperature.
  • the light converting device should be interpreted as forming a part of the lighting arrangement.
  • the phosphor arranged in the light converting device may also be configured to convert light to a more or less saturated colour, such as e.g. amber.
  • the predetermined dominant wavelength is between 440 - 460 nm, for example provided by means of a blue light source suitable for phosphor conversion.
  • the light source of the third group provides UV or violet light.
  • the first and the second group of light sources may comprise a plurality of LED modules.
  • the plurality of LED modules provided in each of the first and the second group of light sources may provide a white light having essentially the same colour temperature or they may provide a white light having slightly different colour temperature so that they in combination with each other provides a white light having a first and a second colour temperature.
  • each of the plurality of LED modules may be electrically connected in series to each other and to the electrical connection means of the light converting device.
  • an electrical drive current can be provided through each of the LED modules of the first and the second group of light sources and through the light converting device.
  • cold white colour temperature should be interpreted as a white colour having a colour temperature in the range of approximately 3500 - 7000 Kelvin
  • warm white colour temperature should be interpreted as a white colour having a colour temperature in the range of approximately 1800 - 3500 Kelvin.
  • the light converting device may be provided to the third group of light sources by means of e.g. pressing soldering or gluing.
  • the lighting arrangement is preferably provided as a component of an LED module, wherein the LED module further comprises a light mixing device configured to receive light from the lighting arrangement and to provide a mixed light output.
  • the light emitted from the LED module may be mixed so that a desired white colour temperature is provided from the LED module.
  • the LED module may comprise a control unit for controlling the operation of the first and/or the second group of light sources.
  • the control unit may determine and control the mixture of light in order to provide an output white light having a desired colour temperature.
