Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a light source with LED chips as light-emitting elements.
  • Linear light sources i.e., light sources having an overall elongated light emitting body
  • Linear light sources are available in a variety of designs and for a variety of applications. They are, for example, well known for the external illumination of flat objects such as, for example, signs, posters or pictures in practice.
  • Reflector surfaces necessary ie, the cross section of the linear light source extends over several centimeters, bringing such a light source in many Cases as the object to be lit disturbing appears. If the reflectors designed with the smallest possible cross-section, significantly larger light losses must be accepted.
  • linear light sources for the external illumination of flat objects which are designed with a linear arrangement of a multiplicity of packaged, light-bundling LED lamps.
  • Such embodiments have the great advantage that the stray light losses are reduced in comparison to the fluorescent tube solution and that it is tight by the use of light, i. For example, to ⁇ 20 °, focusing LED easier to focus the light to a large extent as possible to focus on the flat object. But they also have the disadvantage that a homogeneous illumination of the flat object can be achieved only with great effort.
  • the linear light source it is desirable for the linear light source to be close to an edge of the planar object, for example 10 cm above and 10 cm in front of this, can be arranged and exactly the object, and not its surroundings, illuminated in a grazing light.
  • LED lamps which are packaged to generate the linear light source and emit their light rotationally symmetrically with respect to their optical axis are formed, then, when the linear light source is arranged near an edge of the planar object along this edge, unwanted cone-like light zones are produced. In addition, a larger part of the light will impinge on the object in the vicinity of the light source, whereby an uneven illumination is also produced in the direction away from the light source of the flat object.
  • Linear light sources for internal illumination from illuminating, flat objects such as light boxes in advertising are also known in practice.
  • solutions are increasingly found in which the light of linearly arranged at intervals of, for example, 1 cm housed LED lamps is coupled into at least one of the edges of a transparent plate.
  • the large surfaces of the transparent plate then act, by total reflection, as a light guide, and the light is distributed over the whole plate.
  • Targeted structures on at least one of the large surfaces or in the interior of the plate specifically generated inhomogeneities ensure the desired light emission.
  • the discrete light-generating elements must be as homogeneous as possible in the longitudinal direction of the light source in order to avoid cone-like bright zones a wide range of angles, that is, for example, in a range of greater than ⁇ 50 °, leave.
  • the linear light source in the plane perpendicular to the planar object and to its longitudinal direction is intended to deliver its light asymmetrically in the sense of its optical axis, that it sends more light to the distant zones of the planar object than to the near and thus a homogeneous illumination generated.
  • the light source should produce as little stray light and thus as little glare as possible from the viewer.
  • the discrete light-generating elements must emit their light as homogeneously as possible in a wide angular range.
  • the generated light including IR or UV light
  • the requirements are often slightly different. It is also desirable that as few light-generating elements as possible must be used and that as little scattered light as possible be generated, but often the highest possible energy density is desired, ie the angular range is often as narrow as possible.
  • a linear arrangement - which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art and which allows the greatest possible lighting efficiency with the simplest possible structure and is as cost effective as possible.
  • the light source should satisfy as many of the above requirements as possible.
  • the light source has a plurality of subgroups of at least one unhoused LED chip.
  • the subgroups are in a linear arrangement.
  • a "linear" arrangement means that the subgroups form a straight line, and a slightly curved line forming a circle, an ellipse, a circle or ellipse segment, etc. is also possible, with the average radius of curvature of the line being much larger than Also, a zigzag, meandering or similar course is conceivable as long as a line is defined and the average distance of each LED chip from a straight centerline is much smaller (eg at least a factor of 5, or at least one factor 10) is smaller than the length of the line. preferably arranged at regular intervals from each other along the line.
  • a plurality of lines is formed.
  • the subgroups are distributed in a different manner from a linear array, for example grid-like.
  • Each of the subgroups comprises at least one LED chip, but it can also consist of several different chips. For example, to produce any light color, it may be useful to put together a group of several chips which emit red, green or blue light.
  • the LED chips are applied to an electrically contacting carrier. According to a first. Variant all LED chips are applied to a common, for example. Platinen- or flexprintartigen carrier. According to a further variant, a carrier is present per subgroup or per unit of several subgroups, electrical connections existing between the carriers.
  • a (single), preferably full (ie no voids) body of optically transparent material is present, which at least partially surrounds the LED chips, so that the light-emitting surfaces of each LED chip are enveloped and in such a way that the LEDs Chips radiated light propagates in the optically transparent material, wherein the at least one carrier is mechanically fixed to the optically transparent body.
  • the light generated by the LED chips and propagating in the optically transparent material is coupled out front optically transparent body over a desired area to the outside.
  • the optically transparent body is preferably designed such that it deflects the light of the chips by means of at least partial reflection at at least one interface, as a rule by total reflection, so that the desired light distribution is produced.
  • the LED chips are present on a formation or on formations which have light-deflecting boundary surfaces.
  • the formations have a shape tapering towards the LED chips in an environment of the LED chips. This shape can be comb-like in the case of a linear arrangement of the chips, the LED chips being arranged in the vicinity of the ridgeline. Often the shape is flattened in the vicinity of the ridge line, wherein the flattening forms a support surface against which the often flat support.
  • the formations are hilly, with one or more LED chips, for example, also being flattened ("the hilltop"), being present Due to the tapered shape, light emitted sideways from the LED chips is reflected by the at least partial reflection in a direction corresponding to the main emission direction deflected - lateral leakage from the optically transparent body is prevented ..
  • the side sections with respect to the LED chips thus act as a kind of Lichtumlenk lake.
  • the invention offers a surprisingly simple approach with which the problem posed at the outset is achieved and which, in many cases, brings about improvements over the prior art. Due to the fact that the LED chips are not located outside the flat object, but emit their light directly inside the plate to be flooded with light, stray light losses are largely avoided.
  • the light source is also inexpensive to produce and can be easily carried out so that it is robust against environmental influences. Because the LED chips are generally in contact only with the carrier and the optically transparent body enclosing it, and the surrounding medium does not reach the LED chips, they are naturally protected against environmental influences. Preferably, there are no gas inclusions between the LEDs and the optically transparent body.
  • optically transparent body must be in one piece or monolithic-homogeneous. It may also be composed of several components of possibly different materials that are transparent. Preferably, such different materials have a similar refractive index, which differs, for example, by at most 30%, more preferably by at most 20% or even at most 15% or 10%.
  • refractive index which differs, for example, by at most 30%, more preferably by at most 20% or even at most 15% or 10%.
  • Not transparent elements may be attached, for example. VerLiteisme etc.
  • LED chips usually emit light into the half-space, more precisely into a certain solid angle, for example ⁇ 70 °, ⁇ 80 ° or ⁇ 90 °.
  • This has the meaning of Invention the advantage that no "backwards” emerging light deflected, but only the "forward” emerging light has to be bundled into the desired space area. This not only results in drastically reduced stray light losses, but also makes it possible in a simple manner to generate directional, possibly completely asymmetrical, light distributions. In particular, it is possible to produce in one direction a very wide light distribution of for example + 70 °, ⁇ 80 ° or ⁇ 90 ° and in a direction perpendicular to the first a much narrower light distribution of for example ⁇ 10 ° to + 40 °.
  • the center of the solid angle is often referred to as the optical axis of the LED chip.
  • the optical axis of the LED chip According to one embodiment of the invention - in the version "linear
  • Light distribution perpendicular to the plane with respect to this is asymmetrical.
  • said optically transparent body can be, for example, simply a cylindrical body with a cross-section which is, for example, a rectangle whose two corners are chamfered at the plane containing the LED chips.
  • a light distribution corresponding to that of the unpackaged LED chips is obtained, while the light is deflected transversely at said oblique surfaces by total reflection and in many cases sufficiently well is bundled (ie, said oblique surfaces act as the light redirecting surfaces).
  • An improvement in the bundling behavior can be achieved by making the Lichtumlenk vom approximately parabolic. Such a parabolic shape You can also by several, for example. Three, cones with different slopes replicate. This may be a preferred option for small series production.
  • a further improvement of the bundling effect can be achieved by the surface opposite the LED chips is not flat, but designed in the sense of a cylindrical lens.
  • the long transparent body may have any repeating additional shapes in its longitudinal direction, such as transversely to the longitudinal direction V-shaped grooves or dome-like shapes. With such additional shapes, it is also possible in a simple manner to concentrate the light emerging from the LED chips in the longitudinal direction of the long transparent body to a desired solid angle.
  • the two end faces (or faces) of the long transparent body may also be designed as planes which are not simply perpendicular, but may form the light exit at the ends of the linear light source in a desired manner by tilting and / or by an approximately parabolic shape.
  • the light source is designed such that the light emitted by the LED chips is mostly coupled out by a light exit surface of the optically transparent body, which lies opposite the carrier surface.
  • the above directivity is utilized.
  • the directional effect can be further enhanced by the light exit surface having a cylindrical lens-like or domed-lens-like or otherwise refractive and / or diffractive collimating structure.
  • a further directivity can be achieved in that the carrier is mirrored and has a hollow-mirror-like shape.
  • the light source is a planar object, which emits light through at least one of the large side surfaces, that is, for example, a panel illuminated from the inside.
  • This embodiment can be considered as a combination of a linear light source with a large-area transparent body.
  • the side surfaces thus have comparatively large sections, which are preferably parallel to the carrier surface and parallel to the optical axes of the LED chips.
  • At least one of the side wall sections may be provided with coupling-out structures.
  • the optically transparent body may have the shape of a torus, in which the LED chips are arranged along the inner circumferential line and radiate outwards. This results in a virtually isotropic emission characteristic along the plane of the torus.
  • the optically transparent body can also be formed by a plurality of quasi stacked tori with identical radii or with different radii.
  • the light source is flat in the sense that the optically transparent body is formed flat and defines a plane and the LED chips are distributed over this plane. Along the plane, the LED chips can form multiple linear arrays.
  • the light source can be designed such that it has structures which, in addition to a possible isotropic radiation characteristic, are still called "spots" - ie directed emitters - act. Such spots can be formed by formations in the form of, for example, rotation parabola-type collimation structures.
  • all LED chips of the light source are electrically connected together. This means, i.a., that all LED chips of the light source can be lit simultaneously by applying a voltage between two electrodes.
  • the LED chips can be connected in groups in series, the groups being connected in parallel. If there are several carriers, these are, for example, connected to one another by wires or strands.
  • the electrical paths of the carrier can be designed so that a contact can take place from the outside in each case between, for example, any two LED chip subgroups.
  • the carrier may have two separate connection paths, possibly each with an extension between the subgroups. Contacting can be achieved by drilling a thin hole at the points to be contacted and pressing in contact pins which are slightly larger in diameter than the drilled holes, thereby establishing contact. This works even if the carrier and conductor tracks are completely enclosed by the transparent material of the main body (or of the silicone in the groove).
  • the invention also relates to a pixel wall, ie a planar arrangement of two-dimensionally juxtaposed, individually controllable light sources.
  • the light sources of the pixel wall are designed according to the invention.
  • at least some of the light sources of the pixel wall have LED chips with different emission wavelengths, for example red, green and blue LEDs.
  • the LEDs of themselves different wavelengths are then independently controllable (and therefore not electrically connected), so that the pixel can shine in a desired color.
  • the light sources are monochrome, with more or less identical emission wavelengths, so that only a light-dark image can be displayed.
  • each light source is monochrome, but there are light sources with (for example three) different emission wavelengths, with groups each having a light source of each emission wavelength, similar to the principle of certain color television sets.
  • the light sources of the pixel wall are preferably formed as flat objects, of which light is emitted through one of the large side surfaces.
  • the optical axes of the LED chips thus form an angle to the pixel wall plane and are preferably perpendicular or approximately perpendicular (angle between 80 ° and 90 °) to her.
  • the carrier can be transparent, which is particularly advantageous in the pixel wall. If the carrier then bears tightly against the neighboring element (and, for example, is still connected to it by a transparent permanently elastic layer), light from the neighboring element couples into the carrier and makes it appear bright towards the outside.
  • the carrier may additionally be mirrored on its upper side, so that the coupled-in light of the neighboring element reflects back and thus the brightness of the neighboring element is optimized.
  • the refractive index of the carrier material may be selected so that it does not deviate very little, for example at most by 30% or even at most 20% or 10% from that of the optically transparent body, then the coupling-in of the light from the neighboring element will be particularly effective Good.
  • the carrier in addition to the transparent main body and the possible mirroring, the carrier also has conductor structures for contacting the LED chips; Of course these do not have to be transparent.
  • the long, substantially optically transparent body should, as mentioned, enclose the LED chips in such a way that coupling losses are minimized.
  • the long transparent body must have on one of its sides a groove whose shape and roughness has no significant influence and which is therefore very inexpensive to produce.
  • this groove is initially filled with a low-viscosity, at least partially curable, transparent material, such as a suitable silicone. After curing, this filler material should have an optical refractive index which comes as close as possible to that of the long transparent body, a difference of, for example, 0.1 to 0.2 not playing a decisive role according to Fresnel's law.
  • the initially thin liquid filler compensates for all irregularities of said groove so that they no longer play a role visually.
  • the carrier carrying the LED chips is inserted in a second step so that the filling material completely surrounds at least the chips, but possibly also the carrier. Thereafter, the filler material is cured, wherein a material with permanently elastic properties after curing is preferable to avoid for the LED chips unfavorable mechanical stresses.

  • the deeper part of the groove can then be made as deep as possible, so that the inflow of the liquid, transparent material is facilitated.
  • the light source can be produced in, for example, very long pieces and subsequently cut into sections, each comprising at least one LED group. This also does not impair the possibility of a flat shape of the end surfaces which is not perpendicular to the base surface (corresponding to the support surface after the attachment of the support).
