For the purpose. Therefore, the constant current LED lamp is used to drive a light emitting diode of at least two series connected or a packaged polycrystalline series light emitting diode by installing a driving device. And a voltage stabilizing circuit and a constant current circuit. The rectifier circuit is used for receiving AC power and converting AC power to DC power. The filter circuit is connected to the rectifier circuit and reduces a difference in voltage amplitude of the DC power supply. As described above, the drive device of the present invention brings the series voltage of each light emitting diode close to the input voltage, moves each light emitting diode by the input power supply, sufficiently uses power to reduce power loss, and eliminates interference of electromagnetic waves. It is something that can be done.
 特許文献2(特開2010-56314号公報)は、広い電圧範囲で、LEDを安定に駆動する発光ダイオードの駆動回路、それを用いた発光装置および照明装置を開示する。この駆動回路は、直列に接続された複数のLEDを含むLEDアレイを駆動するもので、この電源は、複数のLEDに直流の駆動電圧を供給する。第1定電流回路は、複数のLEDの駆動経路上に設けられ、LEDに流れる駆動電流を安定化させ、バイパススイッチは、複数のLEDの少なくとも1つのLEDと並列に設けられ、制御部が、バイパススイッチをオンオフ制御するものである。この装置において、駆動電圧が低下するにしたがい、定電流回路の両端間の電圧が小さくなって所定の定電流を生成できなくなり、個々の発光ダイオードの電圧降下が低下して輝度が低下し始めるが、発光ダイオードの少なくとも1つをバイパスすることによって、定電流回路の両端間の電圧が大きくなり、個々の発光ダイオードの電圧降下が増大するため、個々の発光ダイオードの輝度を維持することができるものである。 Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2010-56314) discloses a light emitting diode driving circuit that stably drives an LED in a wide voltage range, and a light emitting device and a lighting device using the same. This drive circuit drives an LED array including a plurality of LEDs connected in series, and this power supply supplies a DC drive voltage to the plurality of LEDs. The first constant current circuit is provided on the drive path of the plurality of LEDs, stabilizes the drive current flowing through the LEDs, the bypass switch is provided in parallel with at least one LED of the plurality of LEDs, and the control unit includes: The bypass switch is on / off controlled. In this device, as the drive voltage decreases, the voltage across the constant current circuit becomes smaller and it becomes impossible to generate a predetermined constant current, and the voltage drop of each light emitting diode decreases and the luminance starts to decrease. By bypassing at least one of the light emitting diodes, the voltage across the constant current circuit increases and the voltage drop of the individual light emitting diodes increases, so that the brightness of the individual light emitting diodes can be maintained It is.
 特許文献3(特表2013-542550号公報)は、全高調波歪みバイパス回路を有する半導体照明ドライバ及びシステムを開示する。このシステムは、電流駆動回路と、バイパス回路とを有する照明駆動回路であり、前記電流駆動回路は、出力サイクルを有する交流電源に結合され、第1照明セグメントと第2照明セグメントとを有する半導体ランプへ電流を供給するように駆動回路が構成されている。第2照明セグメントの入力は第1照明セグメントの出力に直接的に結合され、バイパス回路は電流駆動回路に接続されて、第2照明セグメントの入力に結合されるように構成され、出力サイクル中の時間に駆動回路からのバイパス電流を第2照明セグメントへ供給するようにバイパス回路が構成されている。これによって、駆動電圧が低いときには、全高調波歪みバイパス回路がLEDの第1照明セグメントをバイパスして第2照明セグメントに通電するので、半導体乱舞は出力サイクルの大部分で光線を発して全高調波ゆがみを減少させることができるものである。 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-542550 discloses a semiconductor lighting driver and system having a total harmonic distortion bypass circuit.

 上述したように、従来のLED発光装置は、特に特許文献1~3に記載されたLED発光装置は、入力電圧の変動に伴って発光するダイオードの量を変化させて対応するようにしたものであり、引用文献4に記載されたLED発光装置は、AC-DCコンバータを用いて一定電圧(電流)で駆動するようにしたものである。 As described above, the conventional LED light-emitting devices, particularly the LED light-emitting devices described in Patent Documents 1 to 3, are made to respond by changing the amount of the diode that emits light according to the fluctuation of the input voltage. The LED light-emitting device described in the cited document 4 is driven at a constant voltage (current) using an AC-DC converter.
 しかしながら、AC-DCコンバータを使用した場合、スイッチングノイズの発生があるため、高周波ノイズを避けなければならない病院や研究施設などでは使用できないという不具合が生じる。また、AC-DCコンバータの変換効率による発熱、回路部品点数の増大(コストアップ)、変換効率によるロスがあるという不具合もある。 However, when an AC-DC converter is used, there is a problem that it cannot be used in hospitals and research facilities where high frequency noise must be avoided because of the occurrence of switching noise. In addition, there are problems such as heat generation due to the conversion efficiency of the AC-DC converter, increase in the number of circuit components (cost increase), and loss due to the conversion efficiency.
 また、従来は、定電流回路を用いた回路では電源電圧が高いと、定電流回路ロスが大きくなり、この分消費電流が増えるという不具合があり、また電源電圧が低いと定電流回路の設定電流まで届かず、LEDが暗くなるという不具合があった。さらに、定電流DCコンバータを用いた回路では、電源電圧が高いとDCコンバータに流れる平均電流が減少し、電源電圧が低いと電流が増加してLED側の消費電力を一定に保っていたが、この場合DCコンバータを用いているためこのスイッチングのノイズが発生するという不具合が生じた。また、DCコンバータの変換効率を90%とすれば、10%は熱ロスとなっていた。 Conventionally, in a circuit using a constant current circuit, if the power supply voltage is high, the constant current circuit loss increases, and there is a problem that the current consumption increases by this amount. If the power supply voltage is low, the set current of the constant current circuit is increased. There was a problem that the LED was dark. Furthermore, in a circuit using a constant current DC converter, when the power supply voltage is high, the average current flowing through the DC converter decreases, and when the power supply voltage is low, the current increases to keep the power consumption on the LED side constant. In this case, since a DC converter is used, a problem that this switching noise occurs occurs. Further, if the conversion efficiency of the DC converter was 90%, 10% was a heat loss.
 以上のことを鑑みて、本願発明は、AC-DCコンバータを使用せず、アナログ回路のみで構成したLED発光装置を提供することにある。 In view of the above, it is an object of the present invention to provide an LED light-emitting device that includes only an analog circuit without using an AC-DC converter.
 したがって、本願発明は、交流電源を整流する整流回路と、それぞれが、発光ダイオード及びその発光ダイオードに並列に接続され対応する発光ダイオードをオンオフするスイッチ手段によって構成されるとともに、前記整流回路の端子間に直列に接続される発光部と、直列に接続された複数の発光部の下流側に直列に接続された定電流回路と、前記定電流回路に並列に接続され、該定電流回路の最低電圧に設定された電圧保持手段とによって少なくとも構成されることにある。 Accordingly, the present invention comprises a rectifier circuit for rectifying an AC power supply, and a light emitting diode and switch means for turning on and off the corresponding light emitting diode connected in parallel to the light emitting diode, and between the terminals of the rectifier circuit. A light emitting unit connected in series, a constant current circuit connected in series downstream of a plurality of light emitting units connected in series, and a minimum voltage of the constant current circuit connected in parallel to the constant current circuit And at least a voltage holding means set in the above.
 これによって、整流回路の端子間に発生する電圧の変動によって、たとえば整流された交流波形の電圧の上昇に合わせて、前記発光部を順次発光させることができるので、電源電圧の力率を1にすることができるものである。 As a result, the light emitting unit can be caused to emit light sequentially in accordance with, for example, a rise in the voltage of the rectified AC waveform due to the fluctuation of the voltage generated between the terminals of the rectifier circuit. Is something that can be done.
 また、前記スイッチ手段は、電界効果トランジスタであることが望ましい。 The switch means is preferably a field effect transistor.
 さらに、前記電圧保持手段は、ツェナーダイオードであることが望ましい。 Furthermore, it is desirable that the voltage holding means is a Zener diode.
 さらにまた、前記複数の発光部の上流側に、発光ダイオードが直列に接続されて構成された発光ダイオード群が配置されることが望ましい。 Furthermore, it is preferable that a light emitting diode group configured by connecting light emitting diodes in series is disposed upstream of the plurality of light emitting units.
 本願発明によれば、入力電圧に応じて点灯するLEDの数を制御することができるので、変動する電源の力率を1にすることができるものである。また、AC-DCコンバータを使用しないので、上述したAC-DCコンバータに由来する問題点をすべて回避できるものである。 According to the present invention, the number of LEDs to be lit can be controlled according to the input voltage, so that the power factor of the varying power source can be set to 1. Further, since no AC-DC converter is used, all the problems derived from the AC-DC converter described above can be avoided.

 発光部6~45は、それぞれ前記出力端子4から直列に接続される発光ダイオードLD1~LD40と、この発光ダイオードLD1~LD40のそれぞれに並列に接続され、発光ダイオードLD1をオンオフする電界効果トランジスタ(FET)Q1~Q40とによって構成される。前記発光部6の発光ダイオードのLD1のアノード端子は出力端子4に接続され、発光ダイオードLD1のカソード端子は、次の発光部7の発光ダイオードLD2のアノード端子と接続され、順次発光ダイオードが直列に接続される。 The light emitting units 6 to 45 are light emitting diodes LD1 to LD40 connected in series from the output terminal 4, respectively, and field effect transistors (FETs) connected in parallel to the light emitting diodes LD1 to LD40 to turn on and off the light emitting diode LD1. ) Q1 to Q40. The anode terminal of the light emitting diode LD1 of the light emitting unit 6 is connected to the output terminal 4, the cathode terminal of the light emitting diode LD1 is connected to the anode terminal of the light emitting diode LD2 of the next light emitting unit 7, and the light emitting diodes are sequentially connected in series. Connected.
 発光部6~45のFETQ1~Q40は、発光部6~45の発光ダイオードLD1~LD40のそれぞれに並列に接続される。また、それぞれのFETQ1~Q40のゲート-ソース間には、電圧維持抵抗R2~R41が設けられ、さらにゲート端子には、抵抗R1とツェナーダイオードD45によって設定された最低電圧(たとえば4V)が印加される。また、FETQ1~Q40のゲート端子には、ダイオードD5~D45が、FETQ1~Q40のゲート-ドレイン間の耐圧を超えないように設けられる。ただし、R2~R41によってゲート-ドレイン間は同電位にクランプされている。 The FETs Q1 to Q40 of the light emitting units 6 to 45 are connected in parallel to the light emitting diodes LD1 to LD40 of the light emitting units 6 to 45, respectively. Further, voltage maintaining resistors R2 to R41 are provided between the gates and the sources of the FETs Q1 to Q40, respectively, and a minimum voltage (for example, 4 V) set by the resistor R1 and the Zener diode D45 is applied to the gate terminal. The Also, diodes D5 to D45 are provided at the gate terminals of the FETs Q1 to Q40 so as not to exceed the gate-drain breakdown voltage of the FETs Q1 to Q40. However, the gate and drain are clamped at the same potential by R2 to R41.
 この実施例1において、定電流回路50は、電界効果トランジスタQ41、トランジスタQ42、抵抗R42及びR43によって構成され、前記発光部6~44の下流側に接続される。 In the first embodiment, the constant current circuit 50 includes a field effect transistor Q41, a transistor Q42, and resistors R42 and R43, and is connected to the downstream side of the light emitting units 6 to 44.
 以上の構成のLED発光装置1において、図4で示すように、整流回路3の出力端子4,5間の電圧Emは、商用電源AC100Vの場合は0V~141Vまでの間で変化する。電圧Emが、抵抗R1とツェナーダイオードD45とによって定電流回路50の最低電圧に設定された電圧Vd(たとえば4V)+発光ダイオードの駆動電圧Vf(たとえば3V)以下であれば、発光ダイオードLD1~LD40は発光しない。 In the LED light emitting device 1 having the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 4, the voltage Em between the output terminals 4 and 5 of the rectifier circuit 3 varies between 0V and 141V in the case of commercial power supply AC100V. If the voltage Em is equal to or lower than the voltage Vd (for example, 4V) set to the lowest voltage of the constant current circuit 50 by the resistor R1 and the Zener diode D45 + the driving voltage Vf (for example, 3V) of the light emitting diode, the light emitting diodes LD1 to LD40. Does not emit light.
 次に、電圧Emが、たとえば10Vに上昇した場合、発光ダイオードLD1のアノード電圧が10Vとなりカソード電圧が7Vとなり、電圧VdよりもFETQ1のゲートは高電位となるため、FETQ1がOFFとなり発光ダイオードLD1が点灯する。発光ダイオードLD2のアノード電圧は7Vとなり、カソード電圧は4Vとなり、FETQ2のソース電圧も4Vとなる。これにより、FETQ2のゲート電圧が定電流回路50の電圧Vdと同一となるため、FETQ2はOFFして発光ダイオードLD2は点灯する。次に、発光ダイオードLD3のアノード電圧4Vであるため、電流が流れると発光ダイオードLD3のカソード電圧は1Vとなる。この場合、電圧Vdがこのカソード電圧よりも3V高いため、FETQ3がONするので、発光ダイオードLD3は消灯する。この動作が、発光部4~40に順に生じるため、発光ダイオードLD4~40は順次消灯する。 Next, when the voltage Em rises to, for example, 10V, the anode voltage of the light emitting diode LD1 becomes 10V and the cathode voltage becomes 7V, and the gate of the FET Q1 becomes higher than the voltage Vd, so the FET Q1 is turned OFF and the light emitting diode LD1. Lights up. The anode voltage of the light emitting diode LD2 is 7V, the cathode voltage is 4V, and the source voltage of the FET Q2 is 4V. As a result, the gate voltage of the FET Q2 becomes equal to the voltage Vd of the constant current circuit 50, so that the FET Q2 is turned off and the light emitting diode LD2 is lit. Next, since the anode voltage of the light emitting diode LD3 is 4V, the cathode voltage of the light emitting diode LD3 becomes 1V when a current flows. In this case, since the voltage Vd is 3V higher than the cathode voltage, the FET Q3 is turned on, so that the light emitting diode LD3 is turned off. Since this operation occurs sequentially in the light emitting units 4 to 40, the light emitting diodes LD4 to LD40 are sequentially turned off.
 このように、入力電圧Emが上昇するについて、順次発光ダイオードが発光していくことにある。また、入力電圧Emが下降する場合には、順次発光ダイオードが消灯していくことなる。この点灯と消灯が、1秒当たり、50サイクル交流では100回、60サイクル交流では120回繰り返されることになるので、全体として十分な照度を維持できるものである。さらに、電圧の変動に対応して発光ダイオードが自動的に選択されて発光することになるので、電源の力率を1にすることができるものである。 Thus, as the input voltage Em rises, the light emitting diodes sequentially emit light. Further, when the input voltage Em decreases, the light emitting diodes are sequentially turned off. This lighting and extinction is repeated 100 times per second for 50 cycle alternating current and 120 times for 60 cycle alternating current, so that sufficient illuminance can be maintained as a whole. Furthermore, since the light emitting diode is automatically selected in accordance with the voltage fluctuation and emits light, the power factor of the power source can be set to 1.
 本願発明の実施例2に係るLED発光装置1Aは、図2に示すように、整流回路3の出力端子4,5間に充電用のコンデンサC2を具備すること、所定数の発光ダイオードLD41~LD70が直列に接続された発光ダイオード群60を具備することを特徴とする。これにより、入力電圧Emが0Vまで降下してもコンデンサC2により充電された電圧VAにより、発光ダイオード群60は常時点灯するものである。また、前記発光ダイオード群60の下流側には、発光部61~74が直列に接続され、さらにその下流側には定電流回路50Aが接続される。尚、発光部61~74は、発光ダイオードLD71~LD82、FETG43~Q54、抵抗R45~R56及びダイオードD50~D61によってそれぞれ構成されている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the LED light emitting device 1A according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes a charging capacitor C2 between the output terminals 4 and 5 of the rectifier circuit 3, and a predetermined number of light emitting diodes LD41 to LD70. Are provided with a group of light emitting diodes 60 connected in series. Thereby, even if the input voltage Em falls to 0V, the light emitting diode group 60 is always lit by the voltage VA charged by the capacitor C2. Further, light emitting units 61 to 74 are connected in series on the downstream side of the light emitting diode group 60, and a constant current circuit 50A is further connected on the downstream side thereof. The light emitting units 61 to 74 are configured by light emitting diodes LD71 to LD82, FETs G43 to Q54, resistors R45 to R56, and diodes D50 to D61, respectively.
 また、図5に示すようなコンデンサC2のリップル成分VBが、実施例1で説明された動作により発光部61~74によって制御される。この場合の力率は0.6~0.7程度である。 Further, the ripple component VB of the capacitor C2 as shown in FIG. 5 is controlled by the light emitting units 61 to 74 by the operation described in the first embodiment. In this case, the power factor is about 0.6 to 0.7.
 このように、実施例2に係るLED発光装置1Aでは、コンデンサC2によって生じる電圧VAによって発光ダイオード群60が常時点灯し、このコンデンサC2によるリップル電圧VBは発光ダイオード群60に直列に接続された発光部61~74によって制御されるものである。言い換えると、この発光部61~74は、リップル電圧VBの上下に追随して順次発光し順次消灯する。これによって実施例2に係るLED発光装置1Aも、実施例1のLED発光装置1と同様の効果を奏することができるものである。 Thus, in the LED light emitting device 1A according to the second embodiment, the light emitting diode group 60 is always lit by the voltage VA generated by the capacitor C2, and the ripple voltage VB generated by the capacitor C2 is emitted in series with the light emitting diode group 60. It is controlled by the units 61 to 74. In other words, the light emitting units 61 to 74 emit light sequentially following the top and bottom of the ripple voltage VB and sequentially turn off. As a result, the LED light emitting device 1A according to the second embodiment can achieve the same effects as the LED light emitting device 1 of the first embodiment.
 本願発明の実施例3に係るLED発光装置1Bは、実施例2に係るLED発光装置1Aと同様に、充電用のコンデンサC3と、直列に接続された発光ダイオードLD83~LD117からなる発光ダイオード群80と、発光ダイオード群80の下流側に直列に接続された発光部81~88と、発光部81~88の下流側に接続された定電流回路50Bとによって構成される。 The LED light emitting device 1B according to the third embodiment of the present invention is similar to the LED light emitting device 1A according to the second embodiment in that the light emitting diode group 80 includes the charging capacitor C3 and the light emitting diodes LD83 to LD117 connected in series. And light emitting units 81 to 88 connected in series to the downstream side of the light emitting diode group 80, and a constant current circuit 50B connected to the downstream side of the light emitting units 81 to 88.
 この実施例3に係るLED発光装置1Bの特徴は、実施例3に係る発光部81~88が、実施例1及び実施例2の発光部のからゲート-ソース間の抵抗及びダイオードを省略したものである。これは、前記リップル電圧VBの変動に対して直列に接続されたFETQ61~Q68のゲート-ソース間の電圧VG-Sの耐圧内で制御するようにしたものである。これによって発光部81~88の部品点数を減少させるという効果を有するものである。 The LED light emitting device 1B according to the third embodiment is characterized in that the light emitting units 81 to 88 according to the third embodiment omit the gate-source resistance and the diode from the light emitting units of the first and second embodiments. It is. This is the gate of the ripple voltage FETQ61 ~ Q68 connected in series to the variation of VB - is obtained so as to control the breakdown voltage of the voltage V G-S between the source. This has the effect of reducing the number of parts of the light emitting portions 81 to 88.
 以上説明したように、本願発明は、電圧の変化によって発光ダイオードの発光を制御できるという構造を有することから、電圧制御のプログラムを組むことによって、複数の発光ダイオードの発光を制御することができるため、電圧を供給する一対の配線のみによって広告灯や、表示灯などを制御することができる。また、このプログラムは簡単に構成できるためにCPUへの負担が低いという効果を奏する。 As described above, the present invention has a structure in which the light emission of the light emitting diode can be controlled by a change in voltage, so that the light emission of a plurality of light emitting diodes can be controlled by creating a voltage control program. It is possible to control advertising lights, indicator lights, etc. only by a pair of wires for supplying voltage. In addition, since this program can be easily configured, the burden on the CPU is low.
