Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the improvement of the dimming technology of LED lighting lamps, in particular to a method for adjusting the light color of an LED lighting lamp, its light source and an adjusting device. Background Art

[0002] At present, the commonly used LED lighting lamps that can adjust different color temperatures of white light often install more than two light sources with different color temperatures in the lamp body. By making the different light sources emit light independently or simultaneously, three selectable color temperatures of illumination light can be obtained. However, the color temperature selectivity of this method is limited and the color temperature change is discontinuous, and users cannot obtain any desired color temperature of illumination light through adjustment.

[0003] Currently, there have emerged lighting lamps that install two light sources with different color temperatures in the lamp body and mix various continuously changing different color temperature illumination lights between these two different color temperatures by adjusting the brightness ratio of the two light-emitting chips with different color temperatures. However, the blackbody locus line that reflects the white light color temperature change trajectory on the chromatogram is an upward-arching arc, while the continuous white light color temperature change trajectory obtained by adjusting the brightness ratio of any two different color temperature points through the circuit is a straight line connecting these two color temperature points. That is, the white light color temperature points obtained by mixing the lights of two different color temperature points with a relatively large distance through circuit adjustment of their respective brightness ratios are all below the blackbody locus. Since the area below the blackbody locus is the red area of the chromatogram, the illumination light mixed in this way will all be reddish and not standard white light, and this deviation will have an adverse effect in professional requirements such as photography and taking pictures.

[0004] A method for controlling the light color of an LED lamp disclosed in Chinese Patent No. 202110748926.9, the structure includes selecting a high-color-temperature light source, a low-color-temperature light source, and a green light source as the light sources for simultaneous mixing, configuring an MCU processor and three DC / DC constant-current circuits, and the outputs of the MCU processor are respectively connected to the inputs of the three DC / DC constant-current circuits, and the outputs of the three DC / DC constant-current circuits are respectively connected to the high-color-temperature light source, the low-color-temperature light source, and the green light source; by adjusting the MCU processor to send PWM signals with a certain duty cycle to the high-color-temperature light source, the low-color-temperature light source, and the green light source, and the sum of the three duty cycles is 100%, so that the mixed light source falls on the color temperature line of the blackbody locus in the chromatogram and changes from low color temperature to high color temperature, so as to obtain the required standard color temperature. However, the disadvantages of this solution are: first, the green light source will reduce the color rendering index of the illumination light, making the illumination light deviate significantly from the natural light effect; second, the light color control method is complex, which will inevitably result in a complex control device (circuit) and a high cost; third, the smoothness and linearity of the mixed light color temperature adjustment change trajectory are poor, and problems such as unstable light color jitter and difficulty in adjusting accurately will occur during adjustment, and adverse effects will also be produced in professional requirements such as photography and photography. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the problems existing in the prior art, such as reducing the color rendering index of the illumination light, complex light color control method, complex control device (circuit) and high cost, poor smoothness and linearity of the mixed light color temperature adjustment change trajectory, and unstable light color jitter and difficulty in adjusting accurately during adjustment, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an improved method for adjusting the light color of an LED lighting lamp, its light source and adjustment device, which can overcome the defects of the prior art.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problems is as follows: A method for adjusting the light color of an LED lighting lamp, which uses more than three different color temperature LED light sources with color temperature values ranging from high to low, and controls the change of the brightness ratio of the color temperature values ranging from high to low or from low to high through a light color adjustment device to obtain continuously changing mixed lighting light of different color temperatures. The characteristics are: The more than three different color temperature LED light sources with color temperature values ranging from high to low adopted by the light color adjustment method are all LED white light sources. Through the light color adjustment device, the change of the brightness ratio of each two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources arranged in order from high to low or from low to high is controlled to obtain continuously changing mixed lighting light of different color temperatures. And when the brightness ratio of one of the two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources in the first group is adjusted to 0, the other LED white light source and another adjacent different color temperature LED white light source form the two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources for the second group of adjustment, that is, when the brightness of the one LED white light source is adjusted to 0, the brightness of the other different color temperature LED white light source is turned on, and sequential control is carried out in turn. The entire color temperature value change trajectory is obtained by mixing two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources.

[0007] The more than three different color temperature LED white light sources described in the above technical solution can be three different color temperature LED white light sources using high color temperature LED white light sources, medium color temperature LED white light sources, and low color temperature LED white light sources. The control sequence is to first control the change of the respective brightness ratio values of the first group of two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources composed of the high color temperature LED white light source and the medium color temperature LED white light source. When the brightness ratio value of the high color temperature LED white light source is adjusted to 0, the medium color temperature LED white light source and the low color temperature LED white light source form the second group of two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources for continuous adjustment, that is, when the brightness ratio value of the high color temperature LED white light source is adjusted to 0, the brightness ratio value of the low color temperature LED white light source is turned on.

[0008] The more than three different color temperature LED white light sources described in the above technical solution can be three different color temperature LED white light sources using low color temperature LED white light sources, medium color temperature LED white light sources, and high color temperature LED white light sources. The control sequence is to first control the change of the respective brightness ratio values of the first group of two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources composed of the low color temperature LED white light source and the medium color temperature LED white light source. When the brightness ratio value of the low color temperature LED white light source is adjusted to 0, the medium color temperature LED white light source and the high color temperature LED white light source form the second group of two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources for continuous adjustment, that is, when the brightness ratio value of the low color temperature LED white light source is adjusted to 0, the brightness ratio value of the high color temperature LED white light source is turned on.

All the light-emitting chips on one row of light-emitting chips are of the same color temperature, then more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately in rows on the light-emitting area. All the light-emitting chips on one column of light-emitting chips are of the same color temperature, then more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately in columns on the light-emitting area. On the light-emitting area where more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately in rows, short columns of more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips arranged alternately are provided on the upper and lower side regions of the light-emitting area. On the light-emitting area where more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately in columns, short rows of more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips arranged alternately are provided on the left and right side regions of the light-emitting area.

[0010] The light-emitting area described in the above technical solution may be composed of the middle area of the light-emitting area where more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately in rows and the upper and lower side regions of the light-emitting area where short columns of more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately, or may be composed of the middle area of the light-emitting area where more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately in columns and the left and right side regions of the light-emitting area where short rows of more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips are arranged alternately.

[0011] When short columns of more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips arranged alternately are provided on the upper and lower side regions of the light-emitting area described in the above technical solution, the short columns of light-emitting chips can be respectively connected to the rows of light-emitting chips of the same color temperature at their inner ends.

[0012] When short rows of more than three different color temperature light-emitting chips arranged alternately are provided on the left and right side regions of the light-emitting area described in the above technical solution, the short rows of light-emitting chips can be respectively connected to the columns of light-emitting chips of the same color temperature at their inner ends.

[0013] A reflective layer may be coated on the front surface of the substrate described in the above technical solution.

[0014] An adjusting device for the light color adjusting method of the LED lighting lamp described in the above technical solution, characterized in that it includes a brightness ratio adjusting circuit, a control circuit, a first driving circuit, a second driving circuit, several groups of LED white light sources with different color temperatures, and several grounding switch circuits, wherein the color temperatures of the LED white light sources in the same group are the same, and the several groups of LED white light sources with different color temperatures are numbered as the first group of LED white light sources, the second group of LED white light sources, the third group of LED white light sources, the fourth group of LED white light sources... in the order from low color temperature to high color temperature or from high color temperature to low color temperature. The adjusting control signal output end of the brightness ratio adjusting circuit is connected to the adjusting control signal input end of the control circuit. The first driving control signal output end and the second driving control signal output end of the control circuit are respectively connected to the driving control signal input ends of the first driving circuit and the second driving circuit. The power output end of the first driving circuit is connected to the positive poles of the first group of LED white light sources, the third group of LED white light sources... The power output end of the second driving circuit is connected to the positive poles of the second group of LED white light sources, the fourth group of LED white light sources... The negative pole of each group of LED white light sources is connected to an independent grounding switch circuit to be grounded. The several switch control signal output ends of the control circuit are respectively connected to the switch control signal input ends of each grounding switch circuit, and the working sequence of the several grounding switch circuits is to first turn on the first and second groups of LED white light sources for mixed light color temperature adjustment, turn off the first group of LED white light sources when the brightness of the first group of LED white light sources is adjusted to zero, turn on the third group of LED white light sources at the same time to continue the mixed light color temperature adjustment, turn off the second group of LED white light sources when the brightness of the second group of LED white light sources is adjusted to zero, turn on the fourth group of LED white light sources at the same time and then continue the mixed light color temperature adjustment...

[0015] The first group of LED white light sources, the third group of LED white light sources... described in the above technical solution can be connected in parallel, the second group of LED white light sources, the fourth group of LED white light sources... can be connected in parallel, and each group of LED white light sources can be composed of several LED white light sources connected.

[0016] When there are only the first, second, and third groups of LED white light sources among the several groups of LED white light sources with different color temperatures described in the above technical solution, the negative pole of the second group of LED white light sources can be directly grounded without connecting to the grounding switch circuit to be grounded.

[0017] The control circuit described in the above technical solution can be correspondingly connected and composed of a high-performance and low-power microcontroller integrated circuit with a DSP instruction set of the M483SIDAE type and its peripheral components.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: First, in the light color adjustment method, since the light sources used are all white light sources, the illumination light adjusted will not have the problem of significantly reducing the color rendering index. Second, in the light color adjustment method, since three or more different color temperature LED white light sources with color temperature values from high to low are used, and the light color adjustment device sequentially controls the change of the brightness ratio of each two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources arranged in order from high to low or from low to high in color temperature value, continuously changing mixed illumination light with different color temperatures is obtained. Therefore, the change trajectory of the color temperature value obtained by the mixed light adjustment is quite close to the blackbody trajectory of the spectral diagram, so that the illumination light obtained by the mixed light adjustment is no longer significantly reddish, which can effectively improve the illumination quality required for professional applications such as photography and photo taking. Moreover, the entire change trajectory of the color temperature value is obtained by mixing two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources, so the smoothness and linearity of the color temperature adjustment change trajectory are very ideal, and there will be no problem of unstable light color jumping or difficult to adjust accurately during adjustment. Third, since the light sources of the light color adjustment method are composed of a mixture of three or more different color temperature light-emitting chips and are evenly distributed, they are suitable for the light color adjustment method. In particular, the densely arranged light-emitting chip method can be adopted, and on the light-emitting area, the long rows of light-emitting chips with three different color temperatures are arranged alternately, and on the upper and lower side regions of the light-emitting area, short columns of light-emitting chips with three different color temperatures arranged alternately are provided. On the left and right side regions of the light-emitting area composed of columns of light-emitting chips with three different color temperatures arranged alternately, short rows of light-emitting chips with three different color temperatures arranged alternately are provided, thus solving the problem that there will be a difference in mixed light intensity in the upper and lower side regions or the left and right side regions of the light spot of the high-efficiency high-power LED white light source with a reflective layer coated on the substrate, making the mixed light of the entire light spot very uniform and effectively improving the illumination quality. Fourth, since the adjustment device of the light color adjustment method controls two groups of different color temperature LED white light sources arranged alternately in series through two drive circuits, and an independent grounding switch circuit is set for each group of LED white light sources, and the control circuit controls the sequential conduction of one kind of LED white light source in each of the two series of different color temperature LED white light source groups, so that the brightness ratio of each two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources is continuously changed, and the obtained is continuously changing mixed illumination light adjusted by two different color temperatures, ensuring the ideal implementation of the light color adjustment method using three or more different color temperature white light LED white light sources with color temperature values from high to low.

Specific embodiments

[0027] Referring to Figure 1 , the blackbody locus representing the white light area distribution on the chromatogram is the solid line A. For the existing method of mixed light adjustment using only two different color temperature light sources with color temperature values of 5600k and 3200k, the changing locus of the color temperature value obtained by mixed light adjustment is the dashed line B. It can be seen that the distance between the middle part of the dashed line B and the blackbody locus A is relatively large. Since the lower side of the blackbody locus A is the red area on the chromatogram, the illumination light obtained by mixed light adjustment using only two different color temperature light sources will be significantly reddish.

[0028] Referring to Figure 2, the method for adjusting the light color of the LED lighting lamp described herein uses three or more different color temperature LED light sources with color temperature values from high to low, namely 5600k, 4400k, and 3200k. By controlling the change in the brightness ratio of the color temperature value from high to low or from low to high through a light color adjustment device, continuously varying mixed lighting light with different color temperatures is obtained. Its characteristics are: The three or more different color temperature LED light sources with color temperature values from high to low, namely 5600k, 4400k, and 3200k, used in the light color adjustment method are all LED white light sources. According to Figure 2 As shown, the brightness ratio changes of each two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources arranged in ascending order of color temperature value are sequentially controlled to obtain continuously varying mixed lighting light with different color temperatures. And when the brightness ratio value of the 3200k low color temperature LED white light source in the two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources of 3200k and 4400k in the first group is adjusted to 0, the 4400k LED white light source and the adjacent 5600k high color temperature LED white light source form the two adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources for the second group of adjustment. That is, when the brightness of the 3200k low color temperature LED white light source is adjusted to 0, the brightness of the 5600k high color temperature LED white light source is turned on. Sequentially controlling in this way, the entire color temperature value change trajectory is obtained by mixing light from two different adjacent different color temperature LED white light sources. From Figure 2 It can be seen that when sequential light mixing adjustment is performed using three different color temperature LED white light sources, the mixed light color temperature points on the color temperature value change trajectory B are all relatively close to the blackbody trajectory A. In this way, the different color temperature lighting lights obtained by adjustment will not be significantly reddish.

[0029] Referring to Figure 3 , the light source for the method of adjusting the light color of the LED lighting lamp using the above technical solution includes a substrate 1 and a number of LED light-emitting chips 2 fixedly arranged on the substrate 1, etc. The LED light-emitting chips 2, etc. are densely arranged in rows and columns on the substrate 1. Its characteristics are: The number of LED light-emitting chips 2 is divided into three types: low color temperature LED light-emitting chips 2, medium color temperature LED light-emitting chips 3, and high color temperature LED light-emitting chips 4. The color temperatures of all the LED light-emitting chips on the same column of LED light-emitting chips are the same. The light-emitting area 8 is composed of three types of alternately arranged low color temperature LED light-emitting chip columns 5, medium color temperature LED light-emitting chip columns 6, and high color temperature LED light-emitting chip columns 7. Low color temperature LED light-emitting chip short rows 11, medium color temperature LED light-emitting chip short rows 12, and high color temperature LED light-emitting chip short rows 13 are alternately arranged on the left and right side regions 9, 10 of the light-emitting area 8.
