Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for uniform or predefinable illumination of large areas with a light source, wherein over the respective area a largely constant illuminance distribution is to be achieved.
  • a large-scale outdoor lighting but also in closed rooms can be achieved, so that it is suitable for example for the illumination of traffic or office space.
  • it can also be a desired predetermined illumination of certain surface areas of a surface to be illuminated, such as in particular outer edge regions of such a surface can be achieved.
  • edge radiation When illuminating surfaces with large aperture angles, where the edge radiation is emitted with angles of approx. 120 °, it occurs at the edges of To be illuminated surface areas to a significant drop in the illuminance levels achievable there.
  • document EP-A-0 735 311 shows an arrangement for illuminating interiors with large areas with a light source and with a Refelktierenden element whose surface has a structure.
  • the inventive arrangement for uniform or predetermined illumination of large areas wherein the respective large areas are always to be evaluated in relation to the size of the respective light source, or the light emitted from a light source light radiation, uses at least one reflective element, on which a Fresnel structure is formed and collimated light of the light source is reflected at the surface provided with the Fresnel structure.
  • a slight divergence can be tolerated and optionally also compensated by suitable measures on the reflective element.
  • an at least partially refractory Fresnel structure is formed on the at least one reflective element.
  • This Fresnel structure is formed of alternating alternating active edges, each with respect to the incident collimated Have light changing angle inclination.
  • incident collimated light is collected with an active edge oriented at an angle inclination, and the incident collimated light is scattered with the active edge adjacent to such an active flank and oriented in a respective other angle inclination.
  • such a Fresnel structure free of fringes should be formed at least in the radially outer region of such a reflective element with respect to the optical axis of the entire system or of the collimated light.
  • the reflective element to be used according to the invention should be formed from a material which is transparent to the respective light with a known refractive index and the outer surfaces of the Fresnel structure free from interference flare should be coated with a coating which reflects the respective light.
  • the actual reflective elements may consist of a suitable plastic, which can be processed for example by injection molding or conventional hot embossing.
  • the Fresnel structure according to the invention can also be formed exclusively from a correspondingly reflective material or, As already mentioned, such a reflective coating has been formed on a corresponding Fresnel structure free of flanks.
  • the distance A of the one or more reflective element (s) to the surface to be illuminated should be at least five times, preferably at least ten times as large as the diameter or area diagonal of the cross section of the respective collimated light incident on the respective or the mutually correspondingly arranged reflective (e) element (s) is directed to be.
  • one of the two active edges of an adjacent pair of oppositely oriented active edges arranged adjacent to one another, the function of a concave reflex (hollow mirror) and the respective other active edge fulfill the function of a convex mirror (mirror).
  • the active edge performing the function of a convex mirror scatters the light toward the outer edge of the surface to be illuminated, and the active surface performing the function of a concave mirror collects the light toward the focal point, but since the distances of the surface to be illuminated are kept relatively large, too the light reflected accordingly with such an active edge is actually scattered.
  • the images obtained by the respective differently oriented active surfaces by reflection on the surface to be illuminated are superimposed on the respective surface to be illuminated and equalization of the illuminance over the entire surface to be illuminated is achieved.
  • the light distribution takes place independently of the respective geometry of the light source or the beam geometry of the emitted light radiation from this, so that it can be spoken of an illumination in the so-called "far field".
  • the photometric limit distance of the photometric law of distance should be taken into account.
  • FIG. 1 an arrangement for illuminating large areas 5 is shown in schematic form.
  • collimated light 1 'of a light source 1 is directed onto a reflective element 2 provided with a Fresnel structure and reflected back from this in the direction of the surface 5 to be illuminated with a correspondingly large aperture.
  • FIG. 2 indicates how the collimated light of the light source 1 impinges on the active edges of a conventional Fresnel structure by the material of a reflective element, is reflected on the respective active edges in a radially outward angle and on the outer surface, as the angle of incidence Boundary surface of the reflective element is refracted accordingly.
  • FIG. 5 is intended to illustrate in schematic form the advantageous reflection behavior of a Fresnel structure free of disturbing edges on a reflective element 2 which can be used in the invention.
  • the respective reflected light is then correspondingly refracted on the opposite surface of the reflective element 2.
  • FIG. 5 clearly shows that the collimated light 1 'incident from the active surfaces 3 and 4 oriented at different angle inclinations is respectively reflected in opposite directions and additionally broken.
  • the respective light reflected on the active edges 3 and 4 and possibly additionally additionally refracted light will once in the direction of deflected the radially outer edge of the surface to be illuminated 5 and the other of the active surfaces 3 or 4 directs light in focused form to a corresponding focus and with a correspondingly large distance between the reflective element 2 and surface to be illuminated 5 on the focal point in the optical Axis is arranged, in the radially outer direction further outwards from, so that thereby the present invention desired effect of a uniform illuminance, which is to be achieved over the entire area to be illuminated 5 set.
  • the respective angles of inclination of active edges 3 and 4 of a Fresnel structure free of interference fringes can be adapted according to their distances with respect to the optical axis and correspondingly different angles of inclination of active surfaces 3 and 4 on the reflecting element are maintained become.
  • the surface of a reflecting element 2 into which the light exits and breaks again may also be concave and / or convexly curved at least in some areas .
  • the surface of a reflecting element 2 into which the light exits and breaks again may also be concave and / or convexly curved at least in some areas .
  • FIG. 6 shows, in three-dimensional form, a calculated illumination intensity distribution over an illuminated surface 5, which can be achieved with an example of an arrangement according to the invention.
  • the surface 5 to be illuminated considered here had a circular shape with a diameter of 7100 mm, with a distance of the surface from the reflecting element 2 of 2500 mm.
