Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lamp with an optical element with Mi roprismenstru structure to limit the exit angle of the light rays from the lamp according to the preamble of claim 1, 10 and 12 respectively.

  • Such an optical element is known for example from the Austrian patent AT-B-403.403.
  • the known optical element has pyramid-like profiles 2, so-called microprisms, arranged in rows and rows on its side facing the lamp of the luminaire, which are formed as truncated pyramids starting from a plate-shaped core 3 and parallel have the upper boundary surface (light entry surface) lying towards the base surface (light exit surface) of the core 3.

  • Cover surfaces forms the light entry surface 8.
  • lenses 9 are provided.
  • glare control for the viewer is guaranteed by the use of the appropriately designed optical element, but the brightness distribution of the light over the optical element is not uniform, since more light rays couple into the optical element in the vicinity of the lamp for example in the edge areas of the optical element.
  • the lamp cannot be recognized directly through the optical element, its position can at least be guessed by the viewer due to the greater brightness.
  • WO 95/12782 In order to achieve a uniform light emission from the lighting arrangement, it is known from WO 95/12782, for example, to couple light from a lamp laterally into a light-guiding element, which primarily transports the light parallel to its light exit surface.
  • a microprism structure is attached to the light exit surface of the light guide element, which on the one hand enables the light to be decoupled from the light guide and on the other hand limits the exit angle of the lighting arrangement.
  • the lighting arrangement described in WO 95/12782 is only of limited suitability for backlighting for displays or other displays and for room lamps.
  • this object is achieved by a lamp with the features of claim 1.

  • the microprisms of the optical element have an elongated structure, ie they extend in an expansion direction of the optical element essentially over its entire length (longitudinal structure).
  • the inside of the reflector surrounding the elongated lamp is designed to be specularly reflective, and the microprisms of the optical element have an elongated structure (longitudinal structure) and extend transversely to the lamp or to the longitudinal axis of the lamp.
  • the reflector directs the light transversely to the longitudinal axis of the lamp and ensures uniform brightness distribution and glare control in this direction, and the microprism structure of the optical element ensures glare control parallel to the longitudinal axis of the lamp.
  • the above-mentioned object is achieved by a lamp with the features of claim 12.
  • the luminaire according to the invention has a total of two optical elements which have the same structure and whose microprisms each have an elongated structure.
  • the second optical element is arranged parallel to the first optical element, the microprisms of the second optical element running transversely to the microprisms of the first optical element, i.e. the two optical elements are rotated by 90 ° with respect to the direction of extension of their microprisms.
  • This construction achieves the same anti-glare effect as with a single optical element, the microprisms of which are arranged in a grid or matrix-like manner, but the production of optical elements with a longitudinal structure is simpler and therefore also less expensive than the production of optical elements with a cross structure.
  • FIG. 1 shows a known optical element in a perspective view from the point of view of the lamp of the lamp
  • 3 shows a first exemplary embodiment of the luminaire according to the present invention in a perspective schematic illustration from the perspective of the viewer; 4 shows an optical element in perspective from the point of view of the lamp of the lamp, which can be used in a lamp according to the invention;

  • FIGS. 1 and 4 three preferred exemplary embodiments of the luminaire according to the invention are shown schematically.
  • the optical elements used in these lights are shown in FIGS. 1 and 4.
  • the first exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3 shows a lamp 10 with two elongated lamps 11, such as fluorescent tubes.
  • the lamps 11 are enclosed by a corresponding reflector 12, which has a radiation opening 13 on its underside.
  • the reflector 12 can either serve itself as the housing of the lamp or can be arranged and fastened in a corresponding lamp housing (not shown).
  • An optical element 14, which essentially corresponds to the known element shown in FIG. 1, is inserted in or in front of the radiation opening 13 of the reflector 12.
  • the optical element 14 arranged in or in front of the radiation opening 13 serves to deflect light rays 15 entering and exiting it in such a way that their exit angle is limited, i. is smaller than a predetermined limit exit angle of approximately 60-70 °.
  • the optical element 14 has a plate-shaped core 16 made of transparent material, such as, for example, acrylic glass, which is covered on one side with microprisms 17, which taper to form furrows 18 - starting from their roots, the total of the Microprism cover surfaces form the light entry surface and the other side of the core 17 forms the light exit surface.
  • the microprisms 17 are arranged in rows and rows in a matrix (cross structure).
  • the optical element 12 it is also conceivable for the optical element 12 to be installed in the luminaire 10 in reverse. In this case, the entirety of the microprism cover surfaces forms the light exit surface and the other side of the core 17 forms the light entry surface.
  • the lamps 11 are arranged laterally offset from the radiation opening 13 or the optical element 14. Furthermore, the reflector 12 is arranged and shaped with respect to the lamps 11 in such a way that the light beams 15 emitted by the lamps 11 cannot be emitted directly through the radiation opening 13, ie essentially only light rays 15 reflected on the reflector 12 can leave the radiation opening 13 through the optical element 14.
  • the inside of the reflector 12 is preferably designed to be diffusely reflective, such as lacquered white or coated with highly reflective Teflon.
  • the construction of the optical element 14 with microprism structure 17 causes glare control of the light rays for the viewer, i.e. a limitation of the exit angle of the light rays 15 from the lamp 10. Because no or almost no light rays are emitted directly from the lamps 11 through the optical element 14, but essentially only light rays 15 reflected on the inside of the reflector 12 into the optical element 14 couple in and leave this down again, uniform or at least almost uniform illumination of the entire surface of the optical element 14 is achieved. This effect is further enhanced by a diffusely reflecting inside of the reflector.
  • a second embodiment of a lamp 10 will now be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.
  • the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that a total of two optical elements 14-1 and 14-2 are arranged in or in front of the radiation opening 13 of the reflector 12. Otherwise, the structure of the lamp 10 corresponds to, i.e. in particular the arrangement of the lamps 11 and the reflector 12, that of the first exemplary embodiment.
  • both optical elements 14-1, 14-2 of the lamp 10 are constructed according to FIG. 4.
  • the microprisms 17 of this exemplary embodiment have an elongated structure.
  • the microprisms extend in one direction of expansion of the optical element over the substantially entire length of the optical element 10 (longitudinal structure), while they are arranged in succession in the other direction.
  • Cross-glare perpendicular to the direction of extension of the microprisms 17 is achieved by the elongated microprisms 17.
  • optical elements 14-1, 14-2 with a longitudinal structure are arranged in parallel one above the other, the direction of extension of the microprisms 17 of one optical element 14-1 being rotated by 90 ° with respect to the direction of extension of the microprisms 17 of the other optical element 14-2 If the microprisms of the first optical element 14-1 are transverse to the microprisms of the second optical element 14-2, the same effect is achieved as with a single optical element 14 with a cross structure.
