Definitions
- the present invention relates to a lighting device comprising a set of light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
- LEDs light-emitting diodes
- LEDs as a means of lighting is of growing interest.
- the main advantage of these lighting means is related to their high light output compared with that of traditional means that are incandescent lamps or tubes called "neon".
- Another advantage lies in the lifetime of these means. Except destructive overload, the lifetime of these diodes is counted in tens of thousand hours of operation. In addition, this duration is that corresponding to a halving of the light power delivered. The diode sees its power decreasing but its operation is not interrupted.
- the LEDs have a luminous efficiency, much higher than that of incandescent lamps, a significant part is still dissipated in the form of heat.
- this proportion of thermal energy is not less than 70%.
- this proportion is usually even higher and can reach 80 and even 85%.
- the release of heat by the diode must be well controlled.
- the rise in temperature is indeed harmful to the proper functioning of the diodes. Excessive temperature can quickly lead to deterioration of the diode. For this reason the commercial diodes are associated with temperature limits of use.
- the highest temperatures are around 100 ° C. But for a Longer-lasting operation of much lower temperatures are preferred. Ordinarily, it is recommended not to exceed a temperature of about 80 0 C for continuous operation over long periods. These temperatures are those found in the immediate vicinity of the diode.
- the junction temperatures of the conductors with the semiconductor element are actually higher.
- LEDs provide structures with what is referred to as a "heat sink".
- the diode is usually associated with an element whose dimensions are those of this set, which element has good thermal conduction. It is essentially a metallic element of a few fractions of cm 2 of surface. These dimensions are greater than those of the supply conductors of the diode but are nevertheless limited.
- the object of the invention is to provide lighting means providing a significant light output in dimensions limited.
- the diodes which enter into the constitution of these means are collected so that they are relatively close to each other. This configuration makes the removal of heat particularly necessary, and the use of "heat sink” diodes is usually not sufficient.
- the invention provides illumination means comprising a set of light-emitting diodes arranged behind a transparent sheet, a diode supply circuit and a sheet of a good heat-conducting material extending opposite the diodes.
- the lighting means according to the invention comprise a transparent sheet which ensures the passage of the luminous flux towards the space to be illuminated.
- a transparent sheet which ensures the passage of the luminous flux towards the space to be illuminated.
- the sheet may nevertheless also consist of organic transparent materials, for example polycarbonates also qualified as “organic glasses”.
- the transparent sheet usually has a very low heat conduction and insufficient to allow good evacuation of the heat released by the diodes. Its role is therefore essentially to constitute a surface protecting the diodes by separating them from the illuminated space.
- the diode supply circuit advantageously consists of a conductive layer carried by the transparent sheet.
- This conductive layer is, for example, a conductive oxide such as the well-known layers of ITO (indium tin oxide), the fluorine or antimony-doped tin oxide layers or the metal layers incorporated in stacks also comprising dielectric layers. All these well-known layers have the advantage in small thickness of being essentially transparent to the wavelength rays of the visible range. These layers are regularly used in the glass industry and are applied according to traditional techniques.
- the lighting is directed from the one side of the assembly carrying the transparent sheet. If the power circuit is located behind the diodes with respect to this transparent sheet, it may be opaque. In this case it may be formed by a thin metal film such as those usually used to constitute the electronic circuits.
- the good heat conducting material makes it possible to distribute the latter over the largest possible area so as to facilitate its evacuation into the surrounding environment in contact with which this plate is disposed.
- this plate is in contact with the air, but it can also be integrated into a building element such as building wall, ceiling or equivalent. Most often the material of which these elements are made is not conducive to heat.
- the largest possible dimensions of the conductive plate are all the more necessary to obtain the required evacuation.
- the good conductive sheet of heat is usually also electrically conductive. It is therefore necessary not to have the diodes directly in contact with this sheet.
- a thin layer of dielectric material is sufficient to insure the insulation. It is preferable that this layer be thin to keep the thermal conduction as high as possible. If necessary the insulation of the diodes vis-à-vis the conductive sheet can be provided by a simple air gap, the diodes being maintained at a small distance from the heat conductive sheet.
- the separation of the diodes from the direct contact with the sheet of heat-conducting material is obtained by interposition of a thin dielectric film.
- This dielectric film is possibly the conductive sheet.
- this dielectric film consists of a material used to assemble the transparent sheet to the heat conductive sheet, in a laminated structure.
- Figure la la presents in exploded perspective, the constituents of a lighting means according to the invention.
- Figure Ib corresponds to the lighting means of Figure la once the constituent elements assembled
- FIG 2 is a partial schematic section of a lighting means as shown in Figure Ib;
- Figure 3 is a section similar to that of Figure 2, a lighting assembly according to the invention having another structure;
- Figure 4 is a schematic sectional view of an embodiment of the invention implementing diodes comprising a "heat sink”.
- Figure la presents an assembly for constituting a lighting means according to the invention. It comprises a transparent sheet 5, typically a glass sheet. On this sheet 5 a non-referenced conductive layer is cut to form an electrical circuit. Cutting by eliminating the layer according to the desired patterns, represented in the figure by the dashed lines 4, constitutes conductive tracks which feed series of diodes 3.
- a plate or sheet good heat conductive 1 is disposed on the entire surface of the transparent sheet 5 for constitute with an interlayer sheet 2 a laminated assembly as shown in Figure Ib.
- This sheet 1 is preferably metallic. Copper or aluminum foils are particularly preferred because of their good thermal conductivity. Nevertheless in practice a steel sheet is suitable for economic reasons.
- the conductive layer applied to the glass sheet 5 is substantially transparent so that it does not interfere with the luminous flux.
- the assembly of the glass sheet and the sheet of conductive material is advantageously made by means of a sheet of thermoplastic material of the type used for the manufacture of laminated glazings.
- thermoplastic material of the type used for the manufacture of laminated glazings.
- PVB polyvinyl butyral
- PVC polyvinyl choride
- EVA ethylene vinyl acetate
- the assembly is done according to the traditional techniques of lamination of glass sheets. These include assembly in an oven and under pressure possibly combined with prior calendering.
- the interlayers used traditionally are sufficiently thermoplastic to allow incorporation of the diodes in the thickness of the sheet by simple hot pressing.
- the diodes 3 previously fixed to the conducting circuit carried by the glass sheet 5 are usually of small dimensions. They are preferably chosen as thin as possible.
- the diodes typically have a thickness of the order of, or less than, 1 mm. Their Thickness can be as low as 0.5 or even 0.3mm.
- the thermoplastic sheets used are advantageously slightly thicker to prevent any possibility of crushing of the diodes during assembly and damage that may result.
- FIGS. 1a and 1b show the case of the feed circuit disposed on the transparent sheet 5. In a schematic way, the section of FIG. 2 takes up this arrangement.
- the supply circuit by the layer shown in broken lines 6 supplies diodes 3 arranged in series.
- the diodes are incorporated in the interlayer sheet 2 whose thickness is slightly greater than that of the diodes so that the latter are not in direct contact with the sheet of good conducting material 1, but are very close to it.
- the residual thickness of the material of the layer 2 between the diodes and the sheet 1 is very low, favoring better the conduction through this material which hypothetically is not especially good thermal conductor.
- FIG. 3 shows in section a variant of the structure of FIG. 2 in which the conductive layer 6 forming the diode supply circuit is arranged on the conductive sheet 1. To isolate the layer 6 of the sheet 1, a film insulation 7 is interposed between the circuit 6 and the sheet 1.
- the diodes are either of the inverted type ("reverse"), that is to say that the envelope of the diode is formed so that the element generating the luminous flux faces the support of the diode formed by the transparent sheet 5.
- the flow is therefore well directed to the transparent sheet carrying the conductive circuit and the diodes themselves.
- the flux generating element is on the opposite side to the substrate on which the diode rests, the substrate consisting of the sheet of heat-conducting material 1.
- FIG. 4 illustrates an embodiment of diodes comprising a "heat sink”.
- Diode 3 is here of the "reverse” type. It is fixed on the glass sheet 5. (For the understanding of the position of the various elements, in FIG. 4 the diode is not represented “on” the glass sheet, it is nevertheless fixed directly on it or more exactly on the conductive layer 12 which is itself applied to the sheet 5. Electrical conductors of very small diameter 13, connect the conductive circuit of the layer 12 to the semiconductor element 10, which element constitutes the diode cleanly called.
- the element 10 is advantageously surrounded by a reflector element 11 which directs the luminous flux towards the transparent sheet 5.
- This type of construction avoids a loss of luminous power, and reduces the quantity of heat corresponding to the absorption of this luminous flux. by the surrounding elements. Indeed the diodes radiate in all directions. It is therefore appropriate to redirect the flow in a beam that allows the widest extraction thereof.
- the reflector and the semiconductor element are made of a protective material 14 which most often consists of an epoxy resin, but may be of any other nature provided that it is both electrically insulating and as transparent as possible. These materials are chosen where appropriate to have a certain thermal conduction, such as certain epoxy resins. But these materials do not generally exhibit thermal conduction sufficient to ensure efficient heat removal which alone can prevent overheating of the most sensitive elements such as the "die” junctions (the semiconductor) with the supply conductors. The difficulty for this evacuation comes in particular from the concentration of the release of heat over an extremely small space.
- heat sink consist of metal-type elements arranged closest to the semiconductor element 10 in the structure of the diode.
- FIG 4 there is shown a diode and its heat sink 9, all taken in the envelope 8.
- the envelope 8 is ordinarily electrical insulating material which is not very good conductor of heat. The presence of the element 9 then constitutes the preferred point of evacuation of heat.
- the contact of the heat sink 9 with the sheet 1 is nevertheless difficult to satisfactorily guarantee during assembly with respect to the two rigid elements whose position is relative and subject to variations.
- a malleable junction material 14 a good thermal conductor which suitably matches the surfaces facing each other irrespective of their position or their intrinsic irregularities.
- This material 14 can cover the element 9 before assembly and be plated on the sheet 1 as shown in Figure 4. It is also possible to coat the sheet 1, also before assembly.
- the envisaged structure is that of a laminate systematically comprising a thermoplastic sheet 2 associating the transparent sheets 5 and heat conductor 1.
- This intermediate sheet can be replaced by an air gap the two sheets 1 and 5 being then kept at a distance from each other by spacing elements not shown in the figures. These elements are distributed around the periphery of the assembly and / or on the surface of the sheets 1 and 5 so as to keep the sheets at a distance even if they are subjected to an external pressure.
- Embodiments of the invention are likely to include additional elements that add or supplement properties generally implemented. It is possible for example to have on the conductive sheet of the heat 1, a reflecting surface of the light to further improve the light output of the lighting means constituted.
- the use of metal foils facilitates this arrangement. In this case the face of the metal sheet has, for example, adequate polish.
- the glass sheet can of course be colored or decorated with patterns.
- the arrangement of the diodes that in the figures represents a regular distribution can on the contrary lead to decorative geometric motifs, random or according to particular drawings.
- the number of diodes per unit area of the lighting means is variable to a large extent.
- the limit to the number of this diode density first comes from the difficulties caused by the incorporation of these diodes into the thermoplastic interlayer sheets in the laminated assemblies.
- the density of the diodes usually does not cause general "overheating" of the lighting means. Indeed the temperature rise as indicated above is circumscribed to the space immediately in contact with the "die". The rise in temperature fades very quickly as one moves away from this source because of the poor conductor of the environment thereof.
- the provisions of the invention are therefore intended to ensure that it is this immediate environment whose temperature is controlled by the use of these elements conductive heat.
- the approximation of the heat sources constituted by each of the diodes intervenes only in a secondary way insofar as the heat-conducting sheet itself properly ensures the elimination of the heat which it removes from the diodes.
- the respective thicknesses of the transparent sheets 5 and heat conductive 1, are mainly a function of the dimensions of the lighting means. These apart from their luminous properties must offer a certain mechanical resistance dictated by their mode of use.
- the heat conductive sheets 1 they are preferably of limited thickness to allow the most effective removal possible heat they convey from their opposite side to the neighboring diodes. This evacuation can be facilitated also by a ventilation of this face. In practice sheets of a few tenths of a millimeter are preferred which also limits the weight of the lighting means.
- the sheets of mineral or organic glass which in any case poorly conducts heat are chosen of sufficient thickness to protect the assembly in the environment from their use. Their thickness is preferably limited to 8 mm and particularly preferably is between 2 and 6 mm.
- a ceiling lamp is prepared which is made for the occasion of a glass sheet 600x600mm and 3mm thick.
- This sheet carries a layer of doped tin oxide whose resistance is 15 ⁇ / b. This layer is divided every 50mm by a line that provides insulation between the different parts of the sheet.
- 10 diodes are distributed equidistant from each other. The 100 diodes are thus distributed over the entire surface of the sheet away from the edges thereof.
- the diodes used are produced by the company Nichia and marketed under the reference NFSW036B.
- a laminated assembly is formed by means of an interlayer sheet of PVB 1, 12mm thick, and a sheet of lmm steel of the same size as the glass sheet.
- the assembly is such that the diode incorporated has a height which is 80% of the thickness of the interlayer.
- the luminaire is left in an ambient air environment, without ventilation or forced cooling.
- the power supply of the diodes is regulated in intensity so that the contact temperature of the PVB sheet with each diode does not exceed 80 ° C.
- the operating temperature is reached for an intensity of 125 mA per diode. Given the electrical and light efficiency of the assembly, it achieves a luminous flux of the order of 420 lumens.
