Description

本発明は、発光ダイオード等の半導体発光素子を光源とした照明装置及び照明器具に
関する。
The present invention relates to a lighting device and a lighting fixture using a semiconductor light emitting element such as a light emitting diode as a light source.

近年、フィラメント電球に代わって、寿命が長く、また消費電力の少ない半導体発光素子である発光ダイオードを光源としたランプが、各種照明器具の光源として採用されるようになってきている(例えば特許文献1や特許文献2)。   In recent years, instead of filament light bulbs, lamps that use light-emitting diodes, which are semiconductor light-emitting elements that have a long lifetime and low power consumption, have come to be used as light sources for various lighting fixtures (for example, patent documents). 1 and Patent Document 2).

しかしながら、発光ダイオードは点灯時に発熱量が比較的多く、この温度上昇により発光効率が低下して光束の低下が生じ、所定の照度が得られない問題がある。   However, the light emitting diode generates a relatively large amount of heat when it is turned on, and this temperature rise causes a reduction in luminous efficiency and a decrease in luminous flux, resulting in a problem that a predetermined illuminance cannot be obtained.

これを解決するために、特許文献1などに示されるように、発光ダイオードの放熱性を向上させ、発光効率の低下を抑制することが行われている。   In order to solve this problem, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 and the like, heat dissipation of a light-emitting diode is improved and reduction in light emission efficiency is suppressed.

また、発光ダイオードは狭角配光光源の性能を有し、一般的に光の直進性がよいために、光の照射方向を簡単かつ自由に変換できるようにすることが要望されている。

Further, since the light emitting diode has the performance of a narrow-angle light distribution light source and generally has good light straightness, it is desired to be able to easily and freely convert the light irradiation direction.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-243809 JP 2004-103443 A

しかしながら特許文献1に示されるものは、透光性カバーと共に略球体をなすように構成されたラッパ状金属放熱部の内部に金属基板を設け、金属基板に発光ダイオードを実装し、発光ダイオードが発生する熱を高熱伝導部材を介してラッパ状金属放熱部に伝達するように構成したLED電球である。   However, in Patent Document 1, a metal substrate is provided inside a trumpet-shaped metal heat dissipating part configured to form a substantially spherical body together with a translucent cover, a light emitting diode is mounted on the metal substrate, and a light emitting diode is generated. It is the LED light bulb comprised so that the heat to perform may be transmitted to a trumpet-shaped metal thermal radiation part via a high heat conductive member.

このため、電球としてのケース部分を兼ねるラッパ状金属放熱部全体の温度が高くなり、ラッパ状金属放熱部の内部空間の温度が上昇してしまう。   For this reason, the temperature of the whole trumpet-shaped metal heat dissipating part that also serves as a case part as a light bulb becomes high, and the temperature of the internal space of the trumpet-shaped metal heat dissipating part increases.

このラッパ状金属放熱部の内部空間は、特許文献2等にも示されるように、発光ダイオードを点灯制御するための電源装置、すなわち点灯回路を構成する回路部品が収納されており、内部空間の温度が上昇すると回路部品が加熱され回路故障の原因となり信頼性を損なう恐れがある。   As shown in Patent Document 2 and the like, the internal space of the trumpet-shaped metal heat radiating portion houses a power supply device for controlling the lighting of the light emitting diode, that is, circuit components constituting the lighting circuit. When the temperature rises, the circuit components are heated, causing a circuit failure and impairing reliability.

また、特許文献1及び特許文献2などのように、この種LED電球においては、発光ダイオードを実装した金属基板は本体ケース部分を兼ねるラッパ状金属放熱部に固定されており、LED電球を照明器具のソケットに装着した場合、光の照射方向は固定され、所望の方向に向けて最適な照明を行うことができない問題がある。   In addition, as in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, in this type of LED bulb, the metal substrate on which the light emitting diode is mounted is fixed to a trumpet-shaped metal heat dissipating portion that also serves as a main body case portion, and the LED bulb is used as a lighting fixture. When the socket is mounted, the light irradiation direction is fixed, and there is a problem that the optimum illumination cannot be performed in a desired direction.

本発明は、上記の問題、課題に鑑みてなされたもので、半導体発光素子から発生する熱を効果的に放熱して所定の照度が得るようにすると共に信頼性を高め、さらに光の照射方向を変化させることが可能となる照明装置及び照明器具を提供しようとするものである。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems and problems, and effectively releases heat generated from a semiconductor light emitting element to obtain a predetermined illuminance, and further improves reliability, and further, a light irradiation direction. It is an object of the present invention to provide an illuminating device and a luminaire that can change the illuminance.

点灯回路15は、図3(a)に概略的に示すように電源回路15cと調光回路15dで構成する。   The lighting circuit 15 includes a power supply circuit 15c and a light control circuit 15d as schematically shown in FIG.

調光回路15dは、アナログ信号発生回路15eと、のこぎり波発生回路15f及びコンパレータ15gからなり、アナログ信号発生回路から発生させる任意に可変可能な直流電圧と、のこぎり波発生回路15fから発生させる変形のこぎり波(図3中にw1で示す波形)とを、コンパレータ15gで比較してPWM信号を生成し、このPWM信号で電源
回路15cのフォトカプラ15hをON/OFFすることでLED11を調光する。
The dimming circuit 15d includes an analog signal generation circuit 15e, a sawtooth wave generation circuit 15f, and a comparator 15g. An arbitrarily variable DC voltage generated from the analog signal generation circuit and a modified saw generated from the sawtooth wave generation circuit 15f. A wave (waveform indicated by w1 in FIG. 3) is compared by a comparator 15g to generate a PWM signal, and the photocoupler 15h of the power supply circuit 15c is turned on / off by this PWM signal to dim the LED 11.

この調光における直流電圧の電圧値を変化させた際の、LEDの明るさ特性は図3(b)に示すような特性曲線となり、LEDの明るさが低い箇所において、よりよい照明演出を行うことができ、LEDの発光する付近での細かい明るさ制御が可能となり、高い照明演出ができる。   The brightness characteristic of the LED when the voltage value of the DC voltage in this light control is changed becomes a characteristic curve as shown in FIG. 3B, and a better lighting effect is performed at a place where the brightness of the LED is low. Therefore, fine brightness control in the vicinity of the light emission of the LED becomes possible, and a high lighting effect can be achieved.

また、図3(a)中にw2で示すように、アナログ信号を一定の電圧とし、のこぎり波の周波数を変化させることで、ろうそくのゆらめきのような動きのある照明演出が可能となる。   Further, as indicated by w2 in FIG. 3A, an analog effect is set to a constant voltage and the frequency of the sawtooth wave is changed, thereby making it possible to produce an illumination effect that moves like a candle flickering.

上記のように構成された照明装置10を点灯すると、LED11が発光し、光源体12の透光体12cから光が放射され所定の照明を行う。   When the lighting device 10 configured as described above is turned on, the LED 11 emits light, and light is emitted from the light transmitting body 12c of the light source body 12 to perform predetermined illumination.

この際、LEDから発光した光の内、直進せずに周囲方向に拡散した光は、光沢のあるアルミニウムで構成した光源体12のケース12a内面で反射して透光体12cから光ロスなく放射される。   At this time, of the light emitted from the LED, the light diffused in the peripheral direction without going straight is reflected by the inner surface of the case 12a of the light source body 12 made of glossy aluminum and radiated from the translucent body 12c without light loss. Is done.

Tilt to use.

LED11が発光し続けると熱が発生する。この熱は光源体12内での対流による冷却作用に加え、アルミニウムで構成した放熱板11b及びケース12aに直接伝導され、ケース12a外周面から効果的に外部に放出され、LEDの温度上昇を抑制する。   When the LED 11 continues to emit light, heat is generated. In addition to the cooling action by convection in the light source body 12, this heat is directly conducted to the heat sink 11b and the case 12a made of aluminum, and is effectively released to the outside from the outer peripheral surface of the case 12a, thereby suppressing the temperature rise of the LED. To do.

また、熱の発生源であるLED11を有する光源体12は、点灯回路15を収納したカバー部材13とは、別体の部品として構成し、かつ両者は小さい軸ピンのみで連結され、しかも隙間aを有して支持されているので、LED11の熱が光源体12からカバー部材13に伝達されることがない。   The light source body 12 having the LED 11 as a heat generation source is configured as a separate part from the cover member 13 housing the lighting circuit 15, and both are connected only by a small shaft pin, and the gap a Therefore, the heat of the LED 11 is not transmitted from the light source body 12 to the cover member 13.

次に、上記のように構成された照明装置を光源とした照明器具の構成を説明する。   Next, the structure of the lighting fixture which used the illuminating device comprised as mentioned above as a light source is demonstrated.

図4に示すように、20は店舗等の天井面Xに設けられた配線用のレール21に移動可能に設置されたスポットライトで、レールと機械的に係合し、レールの導線と電気接続するための部材を設けたソケット22と、ソケットに装着された本発明の照明装置10で構成する。   As shown in FIG. 4, 20 is a spotlight movably installed on a wiring rail 21 provided on a ceiling surface X of a store or the like, mechanically engaged with the rail, and electrically connected to the rail conductor. It comprises the socket 22 provided with the member for doing, and the illuminating device 10 of this invention with which the socket was mounted | worn.

このように構成されたスポットライト20は、レール21に沿って直線方向に移動できると共に、照明装置10の光源体12が、図4の実線及び一点鎖線に示す照射範囲にわたり、所定の角度で回動できるので、効果的な照明効果を得るように展示物の位置に合わせて自由に光源体12を傾けて使用する。   The spotlight 20 configured as described above can move in a linear direction along the rail 21, and the light source body 12 of the lighting device 10 can be rotated at a predetermined angle over the irradiation range indicated by the solid line and the alternate long and short dash line in FIG. Since the light source body 12 can be moved, the light source body 12 is freely tilted and used in accordance with the position of the exhibit so as to obtain an effective lighting effect.

さらに、照明効果を高めることが必要な場合には、点灯回路15の調光回路を調整し、展示物に対して、例えば、ろうそくのゆらめきのような動きのある照明演出を行う。   Further, when it is necessary to enhance the lighting effect, the dimming circuit of the lighting circuit 15 is adjusted, and an illumination effect with movement such as a candle flickering is performed on the exhibit.

以上、本実施形態において、各LED11は、白色で構成したが、照明器具の用途に応じ、赤色、黄色、緑色等でも、さらには各種の色を組み合わせて構成してもよい。   As mentioned above, in this embodiment, although each LED11 was comprised with white, according to the use of a lighting fixture, you may comprise red, yellow, green, etc., and also combining various colors.

各LED11は、LEDの放熱板11bをケース12aに接触させて支持したが、LE
Dの放熱板11b自体を大きい寸法に構成して、光源体12を構成するケース12aとなるように構成してもよい。
Each LED 11 supported the heat sink 11b of the LED in contact with the case 12a.
The heat radiating plate 11b of D may be configured to have a large size so that the case 12a constituting the light source body 12 is formed.

透光部12cを無色透明な合成樹脂で構成したが、上記の各種の色に着色したものでも、また完全な透明体でなく半透明でも、さらに材質としては合成樹脂に限らず、透光性を有する強化ガラス等で構成してもよい。さらにレンズ機能を持たせてもよい。   The translucent portion 12c is made of a colorless and transparent synthetic resin. However, the translucent portion 12c may be colored in various colors as described above, or may be translucent, not completely transparent, and the material is not limited to the synthetic resin. You may comprise with the tempered glass etc. which have. Further, a lens function may be provided.

光源体12をケース12aと透光体12cにより円盤状をなすように構成したが、図5に変形例として示すように略球状をなす形状に構成してもよい。   Although the light source body 12 is configured to have a disk shape by the case 12a and the translucent body 12c, it may be configured to have a substantially spherical shape as shown as a modification in FIG.

すなわち、透光体12cを中空の半球状に形成すると共に、アルミニウムのケース12aを中空半球状の下ケース12a1とLED11を支持するための円盤状の中ケース12a2で構成し、下ケースの開口部12b内面にLEDを支持した中ケース12a2をねじ込んで固定し、さらに半球状の透光体12cを下ケースの開口部12bを上から塞ぐように被せ、ねじ込みにより固定し、全体として中空の略球状をなす光源体12を構成してもよい。   That is, the translucent body 12c is formed in a hollow hemispherical shape, and the aluminum case 12a is constituted by a hollow hemispherical lower case 12a1 and a disk-shaped middle case 12a2 for supporting the LED 11, and an opening of the lower case The inner case 12a2 supporting the LED is screwed and fixed to the inner surface of 12b, and a hemispherical transparent body 12c is covered so as to close the opening 12b of the lower case from above, and is fixed by screwing. You may comprise the light source body 12 which makes | forms.

この光源体12を上記実施形態と同様に、2個の軸ピン13fにより、カバー部材13の開口部13aに回動できるように軸止する。   The light source body 12 is pivotally fixed to the opening portion 13a of the cover member 13 by two shaft pins 13f in the same manner as in the above embodiment.

この構成によれば、光源体12が略球状をなし内部の空間が広くとれると共に外表面積も広くなり、より効果的にLEDの熱を外部に放出することができる。   According to this configuration, the light source body 12 has a substantially spherical shape, the internal space can be widened, the external surface area can be increased, and the heat of the LED can be emitted to the outside more effectively.

また、略球体をなす光源体12を、軸ピン13fを中心として回動するので、回動角度を大きくとることができ、より自由に光の照射方向を変えることができる。   Moreover, since the light source body 12 which makes a substantially spherical body rotates about the shaft pin 13f, the rotation angle can be increased and the light irradiation direction can be changed more freely.

さらに、図6の変形例に示すように、ケース12aは中空半球状の上ケース12a3と、中空半球状の下ケース12a1とLED11を支持するための円盤状の中ケース12a2で構成し、上ケースの頂部に透光部となる開口12a4を設け、開口に小径のレンズ等の透光体12cを嵌め込んで構成し、2個の軸ピン13fにより、カバー部材13の開口部13aに回動できるように軸止するようにしてもよい。   Further, as shown in the modified example of FIG. 6, the case 12a includes a hollow hemispherical upper case 12a3, a hollow hemispherical lower case 12a1 and a disk-shaped middle case 12a2 for supporting the LED 11, and the upper case An opening 12a4 serving as a translucent part is provided at the top of the lens, and a translucent body 12c such as a small-diameter lens is fitted into the opening, and can be rotated to the opening 13a of the cover member 13 by two shaft pins 13f. The shaft may be fixed like this.

さらに、図7に変形例として示すように、球状をなす光源体12の軸止構成として、2個の軸ピン13fによる手段に代え、下ケース12a1の下面に球をなす穴12eを形成し、この穴にカバー部材13の隔壁13d上面に直立して設け、先端に穴12eの球に合致する形状の球13f1を形成した軸13f2を挿入して構成してもよい。   Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 7 as a modified example, instead of the means using the two shaft pins 13f, a spherical hole 12e is formed on the lower surface of the lower case 12a1, as a shaft-stopping configuration of the light source body 12 having a spherical shape. The hole 13d may be provided upright on the upper surface of the partition wall 13d of the cover member 13, and a shaft 13f2 having a sphere 13f1 shaped to match the sphere of the hole 12e may be inserted at the tip.

この構成によれば、軸の球13f1と穴12eの球との嵌合により、光源体12が、上面視で360度の角度範囲にわたり回動することが可能となり、さらに自由に光の照射方向を変えることができる。   According to this configuration, the light source body 12 can be rotated over an angle range of 360 degrees when viewed from above by fitting the shaft sphere 13f1 and the sphere of the hole 12e, and the light irradiation direction can be freely performed. Can be changed.

なお、図5〜図7に示す変形例におけるその他の構成、作用、効果等は、図1〜図4で示した本実施形態と同様で、同一部分には同一符号を付してある。   5 to 7 are the same as those of the present embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, and the same portions are denoted by the same reference numerals.

また、カバー部材13をアルミニウム等熱伝導性の良好な金属で構成し構成したが、耐熱性でかつ電気絶縁性を有する合成樹脂で構成してもよい。   In addition, the cover member 13 is made of a metal having good thermal conductivity such as aluminum, but may be made of a synthetic resin having heat resistance and electrical insulation.

口金はE26型に限らず、E17型等のエジソン口金でもよい。さらに、公知のコンパクト形蛍光ランプに使用される端子ピンを有する口金でも、公知のシーリングローゼット方式に使用されるL字形をなした端子を有する口金でもよい。   The base is not limited to the E26 type, but may be an Edison base such as the E17 type. Further, it may be a base having a terminal pin used for a known compact fluorescent lamp or a base having an L-shaped terminal used for a known sealing rosette system.

本実施形態の照明器具は、スポットライトとして構成したが、LEDの使用個数を増減して、家庭用さらには、店舗、施設、業務用等の各種の照明器具として構成してもよい。   Although the lighting fixture of this embodiment was configured as a spotlight, the number of LEDs used may be increased or decreased to be configured as various types of lighting fixtures for home use, for stores, facilities, and business use.

本実施形態によれば、LED11が発生する熱は、光源体12内での対流による冷却作用に加え、アルミニウムで構成した放熱板11b及びケース12aに直接伝導され、ケース12a外周面から効果的に外部に放出されてLEDの温度上昇を抑制する。   According to the present embodiment, the heat generated by the LED 11 is directly conducted to the heat radiating plate 11b and the case 12a made of aluminum in addition to the cooling action by convection in the light source body 12, and effectively from the outer peripheral surface of the case 12a. It is released to the outside to suppress the LED temperature rise.

これにより、LEDとしては発光効率が低下することがなく、所定の照度を得ることができる。   Thereby, predetermined | prescribed illumination intensity can be obtained, without the luminous efficiency falling as LED.

光源体12は、点灯回路15を収納したカバー部材13とは、別体の部品として構成したので、LEDの熱が光源体12からカバー部材13に伝達されることがない。   Since the light source body 12 is configured as a separate part from the cover member 13 housing the lighting circuit 15, the heat of the LED is not transmitted from the light source body 12 to the cover member 13.

これにより、点灯回路15の部品15bの温度がLEDからの熱により温められて上昇することがなく、回路故障の原因が除かれることから信頼性が高くなると共に寿命の低下が抑制される。   As a result, the temperature of the component 15b of the lighting circuit 15 is not increased by being heated by the heat from the LED, and the cause of the circuit failure is removed, so that the reliability is improved and the lifetime is prevented from being lowered.

光源体12は、点灯回路15を収納したカバー部材13とは、別体の部品として構成し、光源体12は回動することができるようにしたので、必要に応じて照明を必要とする方向に自由に傾けて使用することができ、光の照射方向を変化させることが可能な照明装置を提供することができる。   Since the light source body 12 is configured as a separate part from the cover member 13 that houses the lighting circuit 15, and the light source body 12 can be rotated, a direction that requires illumination as necessary. Thus, it is possible to provide an illumination device that can be freely tilted and can change the irradiation direction of light.

さらに、点灯回路15の調光回路を調整し、展示物に対して、ろうそくのゆらめきのような動きのある照明演出も行うことができる。   Furthermore, the lighting control circuit of the lighting circuit 15 can be adjusted, and an illumination effect with movement like a candle flickering can be performed on the exhibit.

点灯回路15は合成樹脂からなる絶縁ケース16によって囲まれているので、外部からの熱がカバー部材13を介して伝達されることがなく、回路部品15bの温度上昇をより一層抑制することができる。さらに金属からなるカバー部材13との電気的な絶縁も図ることができる。   Since the lighting circuit 15 is surrounded by the insulating case 16 made of synthetic resin, heat from the outside is not transmitted through the cover member 13, and the temperature rise of the circuit component 15b can be further suppressed. . Furthermore, electrical insulation with the cover member 13 made of metal can be achieved.

さらに、合成樹脂からなる連結部材18で、金属のカバー部材13と口金部材14を連結した構成としたので、両者間を熱的に絶縁できると共に、電気的にも絶縁することができる。   Further, since the metal cover member 13 and the base member 14 are connected by the connecting member 18 made of a synthetic resin, the two can be thermally insulated from each other and also electrically insulated.

さらに、点灯回路15は連結部材18及び口金部材14によって外部とは遮蔽された空間内に収納されていることから、空気中の塵埃等によるトラッキング現象発生の恐れも防止できる。   Furthermore, since the lighting circuit 15 is housed in a space shielded from the outside by the connecting member 18 and the base member 14, it is possible to prevent the possibility of a tracking phenomenon due to dust in the air.

点灯回路15は、カバー部材13の凹部13c内に収納する構成としたので、点灯回路の収納スペースをカバー部材13の軸方向に並べて確保する必要がなく、ランプの軸方向の長さが短くなり小形化した照明装置を提供することができる。   Since the lighting circuit 15 is housed in the recess 13c of the cover member 13, there is no need to secure the lighting circuit storage space in the axial direction of the cover member 13, and the axial length of the lamp is shortened. A miniaturized lighting device can be provided.

さらに、光源体12及びカバー部材13はアルミニウムで構成したので、軽量であり電球型のLEDランプとして構成した場合、電球として重くなることがない。   Furthermore, since the light source body 12 and the cover member 13 are made of aluminum, the light source body 12 and the cover member 13 are lightweight and do not become heavy as a light bulb when configured as a light bulb type LED lamp.

また、本実施形態の照明装置を使用してスポットライト等の照明器具を構成した場合、照明装置10の外郭はアルミニウムで構成されたカバー部材13で構成され、外観が一般白熱電球に近いシルエットに形成されているので、従来のように電球を囲む金属の外郭部材が不用となり、コスト的にも安価で、かつデザイン的にも斬新な照明器具を提供するこ
とができる。
Further, when a lighting fixture such as a spotlight is configured using the lighting device of the present embodiment, the outline of the lighting device 10 is configured by a cover member 13 made of aluminum, and the appearance is similar to a general incandescent bulb. Since it is formed, there is no need for a metal outer member surrounding the light bulb as in the prior art, and it is possible to provide a lighting fixture that is inexpensive and inexpensive and has a novel design.
