The present invention relates to the field of lamps, in particular to a jewelry lighting lamp and a corresponding jewelry lighting method.
Among jewelry display lighting fixtures, existing solutions mainly use strip lamps or soft belts for lighting around the showcase, or use vertical pole jewelry lighting for highlighting key items. The former strip lamps provide general lighting in the showcase and the light is diffused around. As a result, the surrounding areas of the showcase are bright, but the jewelry in the middle fail to stand out due to an inability to focus light on the position occupied by the jewels, resulting in the inability to highlight the brightness of the jewelry. This hinders attracting the attention of consumers. The latter case of pole jewelry lighting is the opposite of bar-shaped lighting. It uses a spotlight, which highlights the existence of jewelry, but the light source having same and constant brightness cannot perfectly display the scintillating reflection characteristics of jewelry. Furthermore, the light beam can damage the eyes of consumers if reflected at the right angle.
Therefore, those skilled in the art are committed to developing a jewelry lighting lamp, which brings new experience when lighting jewelry while being imperceptible to the eye, so that consumers will not notice the shadows cast by the lamp while observing the light reflected by the jewelry.
In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is the light and shadow problems and glare problems that exist in order to highlight the changes in the intensity of the light source due to the flickering of the jewelry when existing lamps illuminate jewelry.

The superposition formed by the main spot and the sub-spot forms a light spot having brightness Ba+Bb; the ratio of the brightness difference between the main light spot and the superimposed light spot ΔB=Ba and the brightness Bb of the main light spot is defined as the brightness contrast C=Ba/Bb, and the brightness contrast C is less than the critical brightness contrast CPro.
the brightness contrast C is set to 0.02-0.05.

The working principle of the jewelry lamp of the invention is as follows:
According to the principle of visual properties, if the brightness of the observed object is B0 and its background brightness is Bb, the object can be found when the brightness difference ΔB=B0−Bb between object and background is greater than a critical brightness threshold. The larger the brightness difference, the easier it is to see.
The luminance difference between an object and its background ΔB, the ratio of B to the background luminance Bb is defined as luminance contrast C:
C=(B0−Bb)/Bb=ΔB/Bb,
The critical luminance difference between the object and its background ΔBpro, and the ratio of the background luminance Bb, is the critical luminance contrast Cpro.
For an object to be visible, it must satisfy the following conditions: ΔB≥ΔBpro, or C≥Cpro; on the other hand, if an object is to be hidden in the background, ΔB<ΔBpro or C<Cpro should be satisfied.
The light distribution curve of an example product of the invention is shown in
At the same time,
When the brightness contrast ratio is less than the critical brightness contrast Cpro, the human eye cannot perceive the change of the main spot since the brightness of the light spot 123 is not as small as possible. Because the jewelry cut surface reflects light, resulting in a twinkling visual effect, too little brightness weakens the desired scintillation reflection. According to
The present invention, when used to illuminate jewelry with rotating lamps and lanterns, provides background brightness centered with the main light source. The rotation of the lamp reflects light from the light source at different intervals into the human eye. The human eye observes scintillating reflection from the jewel facets while the spot produced by the secondary light source 12 is concealed, so consumers do not perceive the phenomenon of light rotation. While consumers see the dazzling light of jewelry, it also increases the attraction of jewelry, so as to improve the shopping experience.
The present invention also provides a jewelry lighting method by the use of the jewelry lighting lamp using the main light source 11 to form a main light spot 113 having brightness Bb and the range of the main light spot 113 covering the jewelry, and uses the rotating auxiliary light source 12 to illuminate the jewelry. On the polished surfaces of the jewel facets, the secondary spot 123 is always included in the main light spot 113 during rotation, the luminance of a single main spot 113 is Bb, the luminance of a single secondary spot 123 is Ba, the luminance of the superimposed spot 123′ formed by overlapping the main spot 113 and secondary spot 123 is Ba+Bb. The luminance difference Δ between superimposed spot 123′ and the main spot 113 as the ratio of the main spot 113 is defined as luminance contrast C=Ba/Bb, and the luminance contrast C is less than the critical brightness contrast Cpro.
A better concrete embodiment of the invention is described in detail above. It should be understood that ordinary technicians in the field can make many modifications and changes based on the idea of the invention without creative labour.
