1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a reflective street light, and more particularly to a reflective street light with wide divergence angle.
2. Description of Related Art
A conventional reflective street light includes an installation portion and a reflection portion. The installation portion is connected with a light emitter and the reflection portion has a film coated thereon so as to reflect the light. When the light emitter is activated by current and emits multiple light rays, the reflection portion reflects the light rays which go toward substantially the same direction so that the light rays directly light or are reflected to the area to be lighted.
However, the conventional reflective street light can only collect the light rays downward so that the emitting range of the light rays is limited. Therefore, the conventional reflective street light is not suitable for illuminating a wide range of area. The present invention provides a reflective street light with wide divergence angle, wherein the light rays are reflected to two sides of a lens and then refracted outward at maximum angle.
The main objective of the present invention is to provide a wide divergence angle total reflection street light includes a light device having a light emitter and a total reflection lens. The light rays from the light emitter are reflected to two sides of the total reflection lens and then are refracted outward via the refraction surfaces at maximum angle.
To achieve the objective, the street light of the present invention comprises a light device having a light emitter and a total reflection lens. The total reflection lens has a recess defined in the first side thereof and the light emitter is located in the recess. The total reflection lens has two refraction surfaces respectively located on two sides thereof. A V-shaped and recessed reflection surface is defined in the second side of the total reflection lens and located facing the recess. The reflection surface reflects the light rays from the light emitter to the refraction surfaces so that the light rays are refracted outward via the refraction surfaces. The light rays from the light emitter are refracted via the refraction surfaces and the light rays scattering to the reflection surface are reflected to the refraction surfaces to reinforce illumination on sides of the light emitter.
Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to the drawings and initially to
The total reflection lens 12 has a recess 121 defined in the first side thereof and the light emitter 11 is located in the recess 121. The total reflection lens 12 has two refraction surfaces 122 respectively located on two sides thereof. A V-shaped reflection surface 123 is defined in the second side of the total reflection lens 12 and located facing the recess 121. The reflection surface 123 reflects the light rays from the light emitter 11 to the refraction surface s 122 so that the light rays are refracted outward via the refraction surfaces 122.
The light rays from the light emitter 11 are directly refracted via the refraction surfaces 122 and the light rays scattering to the reflection surface 123 are reflected to the refraction surfaces 122 to reinforce illumination on sides of the light emitter 11.
