[0002] With the development of semiconductor technology, LED (Light Emitting Diode) light sources are gradually replacing traditional incandescent lamps and energy-saving lamps and becoming a universal lighting source due to their advantages of high efficiency, energy saving, environmental protection, low cost and long life. However, in application fields that require ultra-high brightness light sources such as stage lighting, car headlights, and projection displays, LED light sources are difficult to meet the requirements. Laser sources have the advantages of good collimation, high brightness, low energy consumption, long life and small size, so they are increasingly used in the above fields.

The projection angle of the laser beam and the relative position of the reflective bowl of the headlight and the fluorescent material are fixed, that is, the fluorescent material intersects at the focus inside the reflective bowl of the headlight, and the laser beam passes through the reflective bowl of the headlight and projects onto the fluorescent material at a certain angle. However, due to the frequent assembly errors in actual applications, the position where the laser beam is projected onto the fluorescent material does not meet the design requirements, which ultimately affects the lighting effect.

[0024] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0025] like Figure 1-2As shown, the present invention provides a laser lighting module, including a laser source unit 10, a wavelength conversion unit 20, a reflection unit 30, a base plate 40 and a light source base 50 for installing the laser source unit 10, the wavelength conversion unit 20 and the reflection unit 30 are fixed on the base plate 40, a curved surface structure 310 is provided in the reflection unit 30, the wavelength conversion unit 20 is located at the focus of the curved surface structure 310, and the light source base 50 is connected to the base plate 40 through an adjustment member 60. Specifically, the laser beam emitted by the laser source unit 10 is projected onto the wavelength conversion unit 20 and excites fluorescence, and the fluorescence is reflected by the reflection unit 30 and then emitted in a specified direction to form a light beam traveling within a specified solid angle. A curved surface structure 310 is provided in the reflection unit 30. The curved surface structure 310 can be a parabola, an ellipsoid or other curved surface, as long as it meets the following conditions: it at least includes a part of the curved surface (parabolic curved surface) formed by rotating the parabola with the axis of symmetry of the parabola as the rotation axis and cut by the plane of the above-mentioned rotation axis. In terms of optical design, the light emitted by the laser source unit 10 is projected to the focus of the wavelength conversion unit 20 so that an ideal light spot can be achieved after the light emitted by the wavelength conversion unit 20 is collected and reflected by the reflection unit 30. However, due to the existence of various errors, there is often a certain deviation after the initial assembly. Therefore, by installing the laser source unit 10 on the light source base 50, and setting an adjustment member 60 between the light source base 50 and the bottom plate 40, the position of the laser source unit 10 relative to the wavelength conversion unit 20 and the reflection unit 30 is adjusted, so that the light beam emitted by the laser source unit 10 is projected to the focus of the wavelength conversion unit 20 to ensure the lighting effect. The module has a simple structure, a small size, and is quick and convenient to install and debug.

[0026] Preferably, the laser source unit 10 and the wavelength conversion unit 20 are disposed on both sides of the curved surface structure 310 of the reflective unit 30 along the optical path direction, and the curved surface structure 310 is provided with a light-passing portion 311 adapted to the laser beam. Figure 3 As shown, the light-through portion 311 may be a through hole, or a through hole provided with a transparent member that can transmit the laser beam, or a transparent member that can transmit the laser beam and is integrated with the reflective unit 30. The transparent member that can transmit the laser beam may be a transparent plate with a filter, which can transmit the laser and reflect the fluorescence excited by the wavelength conversion unit 20, so that the fluorescence emitted by the wavelength conversion unit 20 can be prevented from leaking from the light-through portion 311.

Specifically, in order to avoid light leakage and damage to human eyes, relatively parallel planar structures 320 are provided on both sides of the curved structure 310 for shielding, thereby improving light utilization and lighting safety.

[0028] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , a horizontal extension portion 330 is provided on the outer side of the bottom of the curved surface structure 310, and the horizontal extension portion 330 is fixed on the bottom plate 40.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, there is one laser source 110, and of course, multiple laser sources 110 may be arranged according to actual needs. The focusing unit 120 may adopt a focusing lens or other focusing elements to converge the laser beam. The optical path turning unit 130 is used to deflect the laser beam to change its traveling direction and project it to a suitable position on the upper surface of the wavelength conversion unit 20, so as to make the structure of the entire lighting module compact. The optical path turning unit 130 may adopt a plane reflector or a curved reflector, or a metal film or a dielectric film, etc., as long as the same effect can be achieved.

The laser source 110 is limited to the corresponding cylindrical groove, the focusing unit 120 is limited to the corresponding card slot, and the light path turning unit 130 is limited to the corresponding rectangular through groove. In this embodiment, the rectangular through groove is inclined so that the light path turning unit 130 can better reflect light to the wavelength conversion unit 20, and for the fixing effect, the four corners of the focusing unit 120 and the light path turning unit 130 are fixed by glue.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, the base 510 is L-shaped, including a vertical surface 511 and a horizontal surface 512. The bottom surface of the bracket 520 is arranged on the horizontal surface 512, and one side thereof is close to the vertical surface 511, and the other relatively parallel side is close to the reflection unit 30.

[0034] The adjustment method of the laser lighting module provided by the present invention is specifically to adjust the position of the laser source unit 10 relative to the wavelength conversion unit 20 and the reflection unit 30 through the adjustment member 60, so that the light beam emitted by the laser source unit 10 is projected to the focus of the wavelength conversion unit 20. In this embodiment, the adjustment member 60 includes at least two adjustment screws, and the adjustment screws are arranged with a gap. Specifically, the base 510 and the bottom plate 40 are connected by two adjustment screws arranged with a gap. During the adjustment process, the laser source 110 is lit, and the relative position of the base 510 and the bottom plate 40 is adjusted by the adjustment screws, thereby adjusting the position of the laser source unit 10, so that the light beam emitted by the laser source unit 10 is projected to the focus of the wavelength conversion unit 20.
