The present disclosure relates to the field of illumination technologies, and particularly relates to an illumination device.
With the rapid development of semi-illumination technologies, people's demands on illumination devices are higher and higher. According to an illuminating angle, a ceiling lamp may be a downlight or a spotlight. As an illuminator which is embedded in a ceiling and emits downward light rays, the downlight has the advantage of keeping uniform and perfection architectural ornament, and the artwork on the ceiling may not be affected by the arrangement of lamps. On the other hand, light rays from the spotlight directly illuminate on household objects to be highlighted, so as to emphasize subjective aesthetic sense and achieve art effects of highlighted key points, unique environments, rich layers and atmosphere, and plentiful colors. The spotlight may have soft light rays, and is both dignified and graceful, which not only dominates the whole illumination, but also enables the local lighting and heightens atmosphere inside the house.

In the event that both downlight and spotlight are required, the mounting process is complicated and the cost is expensive because a large number of lamp bodies are mounted on a wall or ceiling. Also, after fixedly mounting the existing downlight and spotlight, the illuminating angle cannot be adjusted in most cases. For some spotlights, the illuminating angle may be adjusted, but their structures are complicated and difficult to manufacture, which makes it difficult to meet usage requirements. An example of the present disclosure provides an illumination device 100 which integrates a function of the downlight with a function of the spotlight. Please refer to
