Definitions
- the field of the invention is that of light boxes used for lighting display screens with an optical valve, in particular for liquid crystal matrix screens.
- the field of application is more particularly that of collimated visualizations known as Head Up or Head
- a Medium Head Visualization or a Head Up Viewer essentially comprises an electronic screen for presenting information, a collimating optic generally comprising several optical groups and mirrors making it possible to arrange the different optical groups in the size of the cockpit.
- FIG. 1 represents the block diagram of a Medium Head Visualization 2 with its display screen 1, its collimation optics 3, its fallback mirrors 4. The collimated image is returned to the eye 5 of the pilot.
- the angled shape of the collimation optics makes it possible to have the Medium Head Visualization 2 under a Head Up Viewfinder, not shown in FIG. 1.
- the display screen must have, among other things, 4 main characteristics which are:
- uniformity U is defined as follows:
- Lmax Maximum and minimum luminances measured on the screen for a given luminance.
- the emission cone corresponds to the solid angle in which the luminance remains greater than half of its maximum value.
- the ideal solid emission angle is around 30 degrees. Below this value, the pilot will no longer have a sufficiently bright image in the entire area of possible movement of his head; beyond this value, part of the light energy emitted is lost.
- Medium Head Visualizations are devices with an optical valve, and more particularly with liquid crystal matrix screens. As indicated in FIG. 2, these devices essentially comprise an optical valve 6 operating in transmission and a light box 7.
- the light box comprises a mechanical structure 8, a lighting device 9, generally composed of cylindrical fluorescent tubes and optical devices 10 making it possible to homogenize the light flux coming from the lighting device 9.
- the image is formed by modulation of the light coming from the lighting device 9 by the display screen 6.
- Lighting sources are generally arranged in a single layer. These are, for example, long cylindrical fluorescent tubes (typically: 100 mm) and small diameter (typically: 3 mm), generally with cold cathode (in English: Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp: CCFL).
- Fluorescent tubes have the advantages of having an optimal conversion efficiency of electrical energy into light energy, of having a spectral distribution of the emitted light well suited to this type of display and of having a long service life.
- the sources have a high intrinsic luminance, of the order of 40,000 cdnrf 2 for fluorescent tubes; the maximum luminance remains difficult to reach. Indeed, on the one hand, part of the light is lost inside the box by diffusion and absorption and, on the other hand, the screen has a very weak intrinsic transmission, of the order of a few for hundred. In the end, less than one percent of the light emitted by the sources contributes to the luminance of the image.
- a first possible solution consists in increasing the luminance of the sources by increasing their supply current; a few milliamps for a fluorescent tube. Unfortunately, the lifetime of the sources in this case drops significantly when the current is increased and, beyond a certain intensity value, the efficiency of the sources stabilizes and then decreases.
- the heart of the invention is to arrange the light sources no longer in a single layer but in several superimposed layers. This multiplies the number of sources present in the light box while maintaining sufficient spacing between the different sources. This increases the photometric performance of the light box, and in particular the maximum possible luminance, while maintaining a correct lifetime of the sources.
- the invention advantageously applies when the lighting sources are fluorescent tubes.
- the subject of the invention is a light box for an optical valve display screen comprising lighting comprising several light sources, said box comprising at least one mechanical structure, said structure comprising an upper housing, side walls and a bottom, the optical valve being positioned in said upper housing, characterized in that said light sources are distributed in several superposed layers, said planes of the layers being mutually parallel and parallel to the plane of the optical valve.
- the axes of the fluorescent tubes of each layer are then parallel to each other, equidistant from a first distance and located in the same layer plane.
- the axes of the fluorescent tubes of a first layer are parallel to the axes of the fluorescent tubes of a second layer successive to the first layer, said axes of said first layer being offset in a direction perpendicular to that of the axes of the tubes. a second distance equal to half the first distance.
- the optimal position of the fluorescent tubes is to offset the tubes by one layer relative to the tubes of the successive layer. This gives both the best efficiency and the best luminance homogeneity.
- two successive layers are separated by a third distance approximately equal to the first distance.
- This arrangement makes it possible to fill the space occupied by the fluorescent tubes as best as possible while retaining a constant inter-tube distance for all the fluorescent tubes which is sufficient to avoid the effects of breakdown.
- the first distance is approximately equal to the maximum diameter of the fluorescent tubes, the space of the light box is optimally occupied. By placing itself above the box, we then only see a uniformly lit area, the spaces between the tubes of the upper layer of tubes being exactly lit by the tubes of the immediately lower layer.
- the number of light sources decreases arithmetically between two successive layers, the maximum number of sources being placed on the side of the bottom of the light box.
- the layer located at the bottom of the box can include seven fluorescent tubes, the next layer six tubes, the next five, ...
- This arrangement makes it possible to obtain narrower and better adapted solid emission angles. at the solid viewing angle of the pilot.
- fluorescent tubes have a quasi-Lambertian emission diagram poorly suited to applications of collimated visualizations. This arrangement makes it possible to create narrower angular emission lobes.
- the axes of the fluorescent tubes of a first layer and the axes of the fluorescent tubes of a second layer successive to the first layer are perpendicular to each other. This particular arrangement makes it possible to obtain a uniform lighting surface whatever the angle from which the viewing screen is viewed.
- At least two different and independent electrical supplies supply the different layers of light sources.
- a power supply supplies at most three light sources.
- at least one layer of light sources is supplied by two different and independent electrical supplies.
- the set of two consecutive periods constitutes a feeding cycle.
- the cycle is repeated at a given frequency.
- the ratio of the duration of the first period to the total cycle time gives the percentage of the light flux emitted by the source.
- the duration of the activation period becomes too short for low luminances. Indeed, on the one hand, it becomes difficult to control the ignition of sources if the ignition times are too short and on the other hand, scintillation phenomena (Flicker) appear.
- a solution consists, firstly, in completely cutting off the supply of certain layers of light sources and / or in cutting off the supply of certain light sources in the same layer in order to reduce luminance dynamics. On the sources still activated, the time modulation is then retained to reach the very low luminance levels.
- the luminance of the screen obtained by the light sources still supplied is at most equal to approximately 10% of the maximum possible luminance on said screen.
- the structure of the light box comprises two mechanical sub-assemblies, the first sub-assembly comprises the upper part of the side walls and the upper housing, the second sub-assembly comprises the lower part of the side walls and the bottom, the light sources being positioned in the second sub-assembly, the first sub-assembly being made of a thermal insulating material and the second sub-assembly being made of a material which is good conductor of heat.
- This arrangement makes it possible to best isolate the display screen from the heat given off by the light sources.
- a plate of transparent material coated with at least one conductive heat treatment separates the two mechanical sub-assemblies and isolates the light sources from the display screen.
- heating of the optical valve due to the lighting sources is detrimental to the proper functioning of the latter, it in particular reduces the transmission of the optical valve when the latter is a liquid crystal matrix.
- heating due to the lighting tubes can reach 60 degrees for a conventional light box.
- a thermal barrier placed in the light box between the light sources and the display screen makes it possible to greatly reduce heating.
- a plate of transparent material covered with a conductive material completes this function.
- the conductive treatment is, for example, of ITO type (Indium and Titanium Oxide).
- the light box includes optical elements of the spectral optical filter or optical diffuser or optical deflector type.
- the lighting sources are fluorescent tubes, the ends of the fluorescent tubes being coated in an electrically insulating and heat-conducting material, said ends being inserted into the bottom of the box, said bottom being made of a material which is also conductive. heat.
- the thermal conductivity of the tubes is optimized by coating the ends of the fluorescent tubes in an electrically insulating and heat-conducting material, the bottom of the light box being made of a material which is also heat-conducting, such as aluminum.
- the outer part of the bottom of the box has ventilation fins associated with a forced ventilation system.
