摘要:
In a method of lighting at least part of a space, a light emitting diode (LED) string is used. The LED string comprises a first LED segment and at least one further LED segment, which are connected in series, each LED segment comprising at least one LED. The LED string is powered by a rectified AC voltage. The first LED segment is powered when the rectified AC voltage is above a first voltage level, and the first LED segment and the further LED segment are powered when the rectified AC voltage is above a second voltage level higher than the first voltage level. The first LED segment is arranged to radiate light to a first volume of the space, and the further LED segment is arranged to radiate light to a second volume of the space, the first volume being at least partly different from the second volume. The first volume may at least partly overlap the second volume.

The present invention provides for improved brightness and reduced power consumption in transflective displays operating in transmissive mode. The invention is based on the inclusion of a depolarizing means (206) between the transflector (201) and the rear stack polarizer (202). The depolarizer (206) is arranged to selectively depolarize light originating from the backlight (203) and reflected by the transflector (201), without substantially affecting the light that is transmitted through the transflector. Thereby part of the reflected light is transmitted back through the rear stack polarizer (202) and can be recycled in the backlight (203). The invention is applicable to any transflective display having a transflector (201) that changes polarization of light originating from the backlight (203) upon reflection back towards the backlight (202).
摘要:
LED light source comprising a string of LED loads (LED1-LED4) supplied by a rectified mains voltage. The number of LED loads carrying current is increased as the momentary amplitude of the rectified mains voltage increases, and is decreased as the momentary amplitude of the rectified mains voltage decreases. The order in which the LED loads start carrying a current and the order in which the LED loads stop carrying a current is reversed for each half period of the mains.

A lighting module (1) comprising at least one light emitting device (3) arranged on a first carrier (10); driving electronics (4) for driving the at least one light emitting device (3) arranged on a second carrier (11); and an optical interface (5) for outputting light emitted by the at least one light emitting device (3), wherein the second carrier (11) is arranged in a plane substantially parallel to the first carrier (10), wherein the first (10) and second (11) carriers are configured such that a projection of the first carrier (10) onto the plane is substantially non-overlapping with the second carrier (11) so as to form a non-overlapping region, wherein the driving electronics is at least partially arranged in the non-overlapping region. The inventive lighting module enables more efficient use of the space in the lighting module.

A lighting system is disclosed which includes a light source unit and a projection system for producing a desired light distribution pattern in a target area, especially for use in an automotive head lighting, studio and theater lighting, indoor spots with adjustable beam width or direction, architectural dynamic lighting, disco lighting and other. The lighting system is especially suitable for a light source unit having one or more Lambertian light sources, especially a plurality of LEDs. For generating a desired light distribution pattern in the target area, the light source unit may include a plurality of collimators that are configured especially such that the curved focal plane (P) of the projection system intersects with or tangentially touches the exit apertures of the collimators.
摘要:
A series arrangement of LED loads (LP1-LP4) is coupled between output terminals of a rectifier having its input terminals coupled to a mains supply supplying a low frequency AC voltage. Control means render the LED loads conductive one by one, when the amplitude of the supply voltage increases, and non-conductive one by one when the amplitude of the supply voltage decreases. The first LED load (LP1, LP2) has a forward voltage that is substantially higher than that of the other LED loads. As a consequence, the LED utilization is comparatively high, thus allowing the LED loads used in the series arrangement to be comparatively cheap.
摘要:
A lighting assembly (100) configured to be mechanically and electrically connected to a socket (150), the lighting assembly comprising a lighting module (102) comprising a light source (106), electrical contacting means (108) electrically connected to the light source and a heat spreader (110) in thermal contact with the light source; and a connector (104) being rotatable in relation to the lighting module (102). The connector comprises connector locking means (119) for locking the lighting assembly to a socket through interaction with receiving locking means comprised in the socket when the lighting module is axially inserted into the socket and the connector is rotated relative to the lighting module and the socket, thereby bringing the electrical contacting means (108) into contact with corresponding receiving contacting means (122) comprised in the socket. Hereby, the space required for electrical contacting means in the lighting assembly and in the socket may be reduced as no space is reserved in the socket for rotation of the electrical connecting means.
