The present invention relates to lighting technology field, with particular emphasis on a strip light fixture.
In the context of energy saving and environmental protection, LED lamps are more and more used in home and commercial lighting field because of their high light emitting efficiency and good focusing performance.
At present, LED lamps on the market mainly use point light source lighting. This type of illumination has problems of glare and reflection glare. In order to solve the above problems, researchers try to replace the point light source with line light source generally by adopting a method of adding a diffusion lamp cover. The diffusion lamp cover diffuses the light from the LED. Since the diffusion direction is not single that the linear light source imaging is messy and fuzzy. The formed linear light source is directly used to illuminate the illuminated surface. The light distribution effect is not good, and the energy attenuation is more, making the formed line light source dim and messy. finally the illumination on the illuminated surface is uneven, resulting in poor lighting effect.
At the same time, the existing improved line source lamps are either bulky, or in order to achieve the line source effect, the LED lamps used are more numerous, which increases the production cost.
In view of this, the present invention provides a strip light fixture to solve the above technical problems.
A strip light fixture comprising:
lamp holder;
circuit board, disposed on the lamp holder;
a plurality of point light sources, disposed on the light source mounting surface of the circuit board along the length direction of the strip light fixture;
lens, disposed on the lamp holder in a light-emitting direction of the point light source for adjusting light distribution of the point light source on a plane perpendicular to a length direction of the strip light fixture;
the strip light fixture further comprising:
strip-shaped convex lens array, disposed on an light emitting surface or an light incident surface of the lens and arranged along the length direction of the strip light fixture for converting each point light source into a plurality of consecutive sub point light sources, and the sub point light source converted by the adjacent point light source is docked or coincident.
When the strip-shaped convex lens array is arranged on a plane, it is a positive cylindrical lens array. When the strip-shaped convex lens array is arranged on a curved surface, the strip-shaped convex lens array is bent along the length direction of the strip-shaped convex lens.
To improve the effect of forming a line light source, advantageously, the light incident surface and the light emitting surface of the lens are each provided with the strip-shaped convex lens array. Both the light incident surface and the light emitting surface are provided with the strip-shaped convex lens array. The two layers of strip-shaped convex lens array enhance the effect of forming line light source. The curvature and density of the strip-shaped convex lens array arranged on the light incident surface and the light emitting surface can be the same or different.
Under the background of energy saving and environmental protection, LED lamps are more and more applied in home and commercial lighting field due to their high light emission efficiency and good light concentration performance, advantageously, the point light source employs LED chips.
In order to improve the light distribution effect, to meet different customer needs, advantageously, the lens comprises a light transmission main part for focusing most of the light of the point light source, and a light transmission secondary part disposed at a certain angle with one side of the light transmission main part to guide a small part of the light of the point light source.
In order to improve the uniformity of the light, advantageously, the light transmission main part projects most of the light to the distal end of the illuminated surface, and the light transmission secondary part directs a small part of the light to the proximal end of the illuminated surface.
In order to further improve the uniformity of light, advantageously, the light transmission main part comprises a light focusing part that guides the light to the far end of the illuminated surface and a light diffusion part that guides the light to the near end of the illuminated surface.
In order to further improve the uniformity of light, advantageously, the curvature of the light emitting surface of the light focusing part changes from large to small in the direction from the light transmission main part to the light transmission secondary part.
In order to further improve the uniformity of light, advantageously, the curvature of the light emitting surface of the light diffusion part changes from large to small in the direction from the light transmission main part to the light transmission secondary part.
In order to improve the effect of the line light source, light emitting surface of the light transmission secondary part needs to be relatively far away from the point light source, and the incoming light is relatively less. In order to ensure uniform illumination on the illuminated surface and avoid dark areas between the corresponding light emitting surfaces of the two rows of light sources when setting two rows of symmetrical point light sources, the light injected into the light transmission secondary part should be concentrated first and then distributed to the required illuminated surface, that is, near-end, and the illumination range is from the directly above the lamp to the region irradiated by the light diffusion part, so that the illumination of the left and right rows of light sources is more uniform. Advantageously, the light transmission secondary part has the effect of concentrating light, and the curvature of the light emitting surface of the light transmission secondary part changes from small to large in the direction from the light transmission main part to the light transmission secondary part.
In order to further improve the uniformity of light, advantageously, on the plane perpendicular to the length direction of the strip light fixture, the included angle formed by the intersection of the light incident surface of the light transmission secondary part and the light incident surface of the light transmission main part is 90°˜160°.
In order to obtain the effect of line light source at all angles, advantageously, the light incident surface of the light transmission secondary part is provided with a strip-shaped convex lens array, both the light incident surface and the light emitting surface of the light transmission main part are equipped with a strip-shaped convex lens array.
According to different requirements, the matching point light source and lens can be set with multiple groups to increase the luminous angle, advantageously, the circuit board provided with a plurality of point light sources is symmetrically arranged with two pieces, correspondingly, the lens is provided with two symmetrical ones.
Technical effects of the present invention:
The strip light fixture of the present invention adopts a strip-shaped convex lens array which forms a line light source only by diffusing light from the point light source only in the length direction of the strip light fixture, so that the illumination surface uniformity in the length direction of the strip light fixture is improved, which can preventing light from diffusing in multiple directions, so that the line source is purified, and the lens is arranged to perform light distribution in the other direction to the line source, thereby reducing energy attenuation; The secondary light distribution of the lens can achieve the uniform distribution of light according to the needs, making the uniformity of illumination approaching 1, thereby improving the light-sweeping effect; without adding parts, the structure is compact.
