As shown in
The fixed lamp holder 100 does not move and is used as a housing or other parts for supporting and installing other parts of the lamp. The fixed lamp holder 100 being a mounting seat for installing the rotatable lamp holder 200 has a rotation centerline 101; the rotatable lamp holder 200 rotates around the rotation centerline 101 and is installed on the fixed lamp holder 100; the rotating and installing setting here means the axial limit and axial rotation connection. The specific setting mode can be set according to the needs. The rotation connection can take place near the rotation centerline 101 or on the outer periphery far away.
The light source assembly 300 is arranged on the rotatable lamp holder 200 and rotates with the rotatable lamp holder 200. The light of the light source assembly 300 has strong and weak changes while rotating with the rotatable lamp holder 200 within the circumferential range of the rotation centerline 101. When the surface of the illuminated object is a prism structure or any other structure being with multiple surfaces that can reflect light from the light source to form emitting light with different light emitting angle and different light intensity, it will produce a sparkling effect on the surface due to the continuous change of reflected light, which is especially suitable for jewelry lighting.
The power source 400 and the transmission mechanism 500 are used to drive the rotatable lamp holder 200 to rotate relative to the fixed lamp holder 100. The power source 400 and the transmission mechanism 500 have many forms, and the final output power is to drive the rotatable lamp holder 200.
When the light source is set away from the rotation centerline 101, no matter how the light exit direction is set, generally, the light intensity of the light emitted from the light source changes when the rotatable lamp holder 200 rotates within the circumferential range of the rotation centerline 101, so that different reflected light is formed on the illuminated object, and the human eye can see the sparkling jewelry or other decorations without moving.
When the light source is set at the position of the rotation centerline 101, if the light exit direction coincides with the rotation centerline 101 and the light distribution in the circumferential direction is uniform, the light intensity of the light emitted from the light source will not change when the rotatable lamp holder 200 rotates within the circumferential range of the rotation centerline 101, then no sparkling effect take place; however, if the light exit direction is inclined with respect to the rotation centerline 101 or the light distribution in the circumferential direction is uneven, it can produce a sparkling effect when the rotatable lamp holder 200 rotates.
In this embodiment, the light source assembly 300 includes a circuit board 301 arranged on the rotatable lamp holder 200 and a first light source 302 arranged on the front of the circuit board 301 and deviated from the rotation centerline 101. Therefore, the light will change in intensity when the rotatable lamp holder 200 rotates within the circumferential range of the rotation centerline 101, resulting in a sparkling effect.
In order to make the light output of the whole lamp more uniform, there are multiple first light sources 302. The first light source 302 is arranged in at least one circle around the rotation centerline 101, wherein at least one first light source is provided in each circle. With this setting, the intensity changes of the light are achieved, but the changes are difficult to detect with the naked eye, which can prevent consumers from discovering that the lamp is rotating, and make the illuminated object shine more naturally. Further preferably, at least two first light sources 302 are provided in each circle, and the first light sources 302 in the same circle are evenly distributed around the rotation centerline 101.
In order to save energy, protect the environment and improve light efficiency, the first light source 302 in this embodiment includes a first LED chip 3021 and a first optical element 3022 arranged in the light-emitting direction of the first LED chip 3021. The first optical element 3022 can be used to package the first LED chip 3021 and distribute light for the first LED chip 3021, which can be set as needed.
In order to minish the light exit angle and improve the light efficiency, in this embodiment, the first optical element 3022 is a collimating lens. Of course, other lenses, convex lenses, special-shaped lenses, etc., can also be used, and optical elements such as reflectors can also be used, which can be selected according to the needs of light distribution. In order to make light emit regularly, the maximum intensity light output direction of the first light source 302 in this embodiment is parallel to the rotation centerline 101, and of course the tilt angle can be set. In this way, design is required to obtain the desired light-emitting effect, but there still will be a sparkling effect to achieve the purpose of the present invention. To facilitate manufacturing and installation, the first optical element 3022 is integrated on a mounting plate 3013, and the mounting plate 3013 is fixed on the circuit board 301.
In order to provide uniform illumination in the middle of the lamp, in this embodiment, the light source assembly 300 further includes a second light source 303 arranged on the front of the circuit board 301 and located at the rotation centerline 101. The second light source 303 includes a second LED chip 3031 and a second optical element 3032 arranged in the light emitting direction of the second LED chip 3031. The second optical element 3032 also uses a collimating lens and is also integrated on the mounting plate 3013.
In order to improve the anti-glare effect, in this embodiment the light fixture further includes an anti-glare cover 600 arranged on the rotatable lamp holder 200 in the light emitting direction of the light source assembly 300. In order to improve the shading effect, further, the anti-glare cover 600 is a honeycomb anti-glare cover. In order to ensure the light emitting efficiency at the same time, the light source assembly 300 is provided with multiple light sources and arranged in a honeycomb type, and each hole of the honeycomb anti-glare cover faces an individual light source.
There are many types of power source 400 that can be used to achieve power output. In this embodiment, for the convenience of obtaining materials, the power source 400 uses a motor.
The transmission mechanism 500 adopts the form of belt transmission, chain transmission or gear transmission. In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism 500 is gear transmission. The power source 400 can be arranged on the fixed lamp holder 100 or the rotatable lamp holder 200. In this embodiment, the power source 400 is arranged on the fixed lamp holder 100. The transmission mechanism 500 includes a driving gear 501 arranged on the fixed lamp holder 100 and meshing with the output end of the power source 400 and a driven gear 502 arranged on the rotatable lamp holder 200 and meshing with the driving gear 501.
In order to control the output of the power source 400, in this embodiment, the lamp further includes a control circuit board 700 arranged on the fixed lamp holder 100 to supply power to the power source 400 and provide forward and reverse control signals. The control circuit board 700 can be integrated into the power source 400 or integrated into the light source assembly 300, and can be designed according to structural requirements.
