Definitions

  • the invention relates to a luminaire for room lighting, in particular an interior luminaire, which has a cavity with one or more reflective walls, which has a first wall, which is translucent at least on a partial area and has a light coupling-out area of the cavity, a second, at least partially translucent wall, and having a third wall opposite the first wall which is wholly or partially reflective, the lamp having one or more lamps disposed outside the cavity and coupling light into the cavity via the second wall.
  • Such lights are for example off U.S. Patent 4,059,755 or EP 1 111 298 A1 known.
  • Recent developments are aimed at creating a shielding by light-refracting structures on translucent surfaces, which have hitherto been brought about by screens or opaque reflectors which prevent the emission of light in certain directions.
  • Shielding refers to a light emission behavior of a luminaire in lighting technology in which above a certain critical angle to the vertical, typically in the range of 50 ° to 80 °, in certain spatial planes, for example in the C-planes defined in DIN EN 13032-1 or in the C-planes corresponding planes perpendicular to the light exit opening of the luminaire, the average luminance is below a threshold, which is set differently in different standards and can be 1000 cd / m 2 , 500 cd / m 2 or 200 cd / m 2 , In many cases, no specific limit value for the luminance is specified, but only required that it should not come to a glare due to light that exits above certain angles to the vertical in space, based on certain spatial levels.
  • a shield in the plane transverse to the longitudinal direction of the prisms can be produced by a suitable configuration of straight line-shaped prisms, which have a triangular shape in cross section. This is especially in EP 1 111 298 A1 described. It was believed that such elongated prisms create a shield substantially only in the plane transverse to their longitudinal direction. Accordingly, it has been proposed to provide on the light exit side of the cavity prisms, which extend parallel to the lamp axis and to provide on the Lichteinkoppelseite prisms which are perpendicular to the lamp axis.
  • the end EP 1 111 298 A1 Although known concept has proven itself in principle. The disadvantage here, however, that the length over which the prisms extend to the Lichteinkoppelseite is relatively short. Short line prism structures that extend in the direction transverse to their longitudinal direction over a distance that is approximately the length of a typical interior light or a typical fluorescent tube, are relatively expensive to manufacture. Due to the short length of the prisms, edge effects also play a much greater role than with comparatively long structures. Likewise, imperfections, which mainly occur in the peripheral areas, have a stronger effect.
  • FIG.S. Patent 4,059,755 A construction in which mutually parallel prisms are provided on the light input side and on the light exit side of a cavity is shown in FIG U.S. Patent 4,059,755 described. However, it is also assumed there that the luminous intensity distribution curve is designed by these prisms only in the plane perpendicular to their longitudinal axis.

  • the invention may provide that the cone or a cone, which results from a continuation of said truncated cone, at its tip has an opening angle of 100 ° to 128 °, in particular 110 °.
  • the preferred angular ranges for the material PMMA are given, with a preferred angle for other materials resulting from the condition that the same refractive behavior as in the material PMMA should be given in the above-mentioned angle range.
  • the structure of line-shaped refractive elements of the first wall is parallel to said light source.
  • the invention may provide that the cones or truncated cones are arranged hexagonally.
  • a cone is understood to mean any body whose lateral surface by the movement of a straight line through a fixed point that slides along a guide curve, and bodies that have approximately such a lateral surface.
  • a truncated cone is understood to mean a body which corresponds to a cone in the sense of the invention which is cut off at its tip along a plane which does not intersect the base surface and at most touches in an edge point, in particular such bodies in which the tip of the Cone is cut along a plane parallel to the base.
  • the above-mentioned guide curve may be a circle, so that corresponding cones have substantially a circular cone shape.

  • the elements have the shape of a circular cone, which is laterally cut off in the region of its base in the form of a hexagon. More specifically, the shape of these elements is generated from a cone cut along six planes that are parallel to the cone axis and that together enclose a space that is in the shape of a hexagonal cylinder whose cylinder axis is parallel to the cone axis.
  • Such an element thus has at the end facing away from the tip of a hexagonal in plan view circumference and from a certain distance from the tip to the tip in a cross section perpendicular to the axis of symmetry the shape of a circle.
  • Said hexagonal design makes it possible to arrange these elements in the manner of a hexagonal closest packing without gap, while they have a rotational symmetry with respect to the cone axis towards their tip and thus show the same refractive behavior homogeneously in all directions in this region.
  • the elements have the shape of a pyramid with hexagonal base and or have a different basic shape than that of a circular cone and are cut along the surfaces of a hexagon near its base.
  • elements which have a polyhedral area other than a hexagon as the base area or which are laterally cut off in accordance with such a polygon, in particular elements with an octagonal base being considered.

  • a larger dark area below the light sources and the same light exit surface of the lamp a higher luminaire width.
  • less light is directed directly from the refractive structure on the second wall to the structure on the first wall and accordingly has to be directed by reflections to the light exit surface of the luminaire, which causes higher losses.
  • the area of the second wall increases. This increases the area on which the refractive structure must be formed and thus the cost.
  • the parameters of the refractive structures on the first and second walls in particular the angle between the said straight lines which form or approximate the flanks of the elements in cross section, or the apex angles of a structure with a triangular or triangular cross section and / or the opening angle of a cone or truncated cone in a conical or frusto-conical structure, as well as the refractive index of the materials of the first and second wall optimized such that above a critical angle to the vertical in one or more C-planes or to a perpendicular to the light exit surface in one or more planes perpendicular to the light exit surface of the lamp, which may be in a range of 50 ° to 80 °, the average luminance at the light exit surface below 1000 cd / m 2 , below 500 cd / m 2 or below 200 cd / m 2 .
