  • an interval in the light guide direction between adjacent concave or convex structures is preferably reduced as the distance from the light source increases. Since the distance between the adjacent concave or convex structures in the light guide direction gradually decreases as the distance from the light source increases, the light extraction means cannot be deflected and reaches the end surface opposite to the incident surface of the light guide plate. The light to be emitted can be emitted by diffraction between the edge of the light guide plate and the light extraction means, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency. Furthermore, luminance unevenness on the exit surface can be reduced.
  • the light extraction means since the light extraction means has only a concave structure, there is a high probability that reflected light including total reflection on the reflection surface or the emission surface is guided to the light extraction means. And high light extraction efficiency can be secured. Further, since the space between the light extraction means can be increased, it becomes easy to totally reflect.
  • an end surface intersecting the reflection surface and the emission surface is an incident surface on which light from the light source is incident, and the incident surface includes a first deflection surface and a second deflection surface, Light from the light source passes through the first deflection surface, is then deflected toward the reflection surface, and is incident on the reflection surface at an angle including a total reflection angle, while the second deflection surface. After being transmitted, the light is deflected toward the exit surface, is incident on the exit surface at an angle including a total reflection angle, and is then reflected or transmitted by the light extraction means and exits from the exit surface. Is preferred.
  • the two light beams divided by the first deflection surface and the second deflection surface constituting the entrance surface are totally reflected by the reflection surface and the exit surface and guided to the light extraction unit.
  • the number of times the light is reciprocated and guided in the light guide plate is reduced, thereby prompting the light emitted from the light source to enter the light extraction means without being attenuated as much as possible, thereby increasing the light extraction efficiency. .
  • the first deflection surface and the second deflection surface are preferably surfaces inclined in different directions. Light directly incident from the light source facing the incident surface is divided by the first deflection surface and the second deflection surface inclined in different directions, so that there is little light loss and light is reciprocated between end surfaces. The number of times of light decreases and the light extraction efficiency increases.
  • the lighting device is capable of high-efficiency light distribution control, and has small luminance unevenness (glare) when observed from the user's line of sight, and provides a lighting device that can illuminate an oblique direction. it can.
  • the illumination device preferably includes a plurality of point light sources arranged at predetermined intervals along an end surface intersecting the reflection surface and the emission surface.
  • an LED or the like that can save power can be used as the point light source, but the illuminance may be low if it is single. Therefore, it is possible to increase the illuminance by using a plurality of point light sources, and furthermore, by mixing the light emitted from the plurality of point light sources with the light guide plate, it is possible to emit illumination light with less illuminance unevenness. Further, the lighting device can be thinned by arranging the plurality of light sources along an end surface intersecting the reflection surface and the emission surface.
  • a reflection plate is provided adjacent to the reflection surface of the light guide plate. Although a small amount of light may leak from the reflecting surface, it is possible to provide an illumination device with higher light extraction efficiency by reflecting the light from the reflecting plate so as to be emitted from the emitting surface. .
  • a diffusion plate is provided adjacent to the emission surface of the light guide plate.
  • the illumination stand has the illumination device described above, it can illuminate a direction greatly inclined from the normal direction of the exit surface, so that the user's head can be illuminated and can be illuminated brightly to the hand, Since it is recognized as surface emission at 75 degrees or more in the normal direction of the emission surface, which the user tends to observe the light emission surface, glare is suppressed even if the emission surface is directly observed.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un dispositif d'éclairage, lequel dispositif est apte à émettre une lumière intense dans une direction différente de la direction dans laquelle la surface principale d'une plaque de guidage de lumière pour émettre une lumière d'éclairage est dirigée et sur un montant d'éclairage ayant le dispositif d'éclairage, lequel est apte à éclairer efficacement son environnement même avec une faible consommation d'énergie. Un dispositif d'éclairage (U) pour un équipement d'éclairage guide une lumière émise à partir d'un élément émetteur de lumière (2) à travers une plaque de guidage de lumière (1) et émet la lumière à partir d'une première surface principale (11). Une section de prise de lumière (15) est disposée soit sur la première surface principale (11) soit sur une seconde surface principale (12), et la lumière d'éclairage émise est déviée par la section de prise de lumière (15) d'un angle prescrit par rapport à la direction verticale de la première surface principale. L'équipement d'éclairage et un montant d'éclairage (ST1) utilisent le dispositif d'éclairage (U).
