In addition, some systems can simulate changes in natural light to provide users with a healthier light environment.

[0051] The embodiment of the present application provides a fiber optic tunnel lighting system, which solves the technical problems of complex wiring, difficult maintenance and inability to provide flexible outline throughout the tunnel lighting system in the prior art, and achieves the technical effect of easy maintenance and control and flexible outline throughout the tunnel lighting system.

[0052] In order to solve the technical problems of complex wiring and difficult maintenance of the above-mentioned tunnel lighting system, the overall idea is as follows:

[0053] Because traditional tunnel lighting uses a lighting method that uses multiple LED lighting fixtures to work together, each fixture must have independent wiring, which leads to technical problems such as complex wiring and difficult maintenance. Therefore, this application adopts a technical solution that concentrates the light in the light distribution box and uses optical fiber to transmit the light to the lighting. A light board is provided in the light distribution box, and lamp beads are provided on the lamp board. Each lamp bead corresponds to an optical fiber, and a light-emitting unit is formed with a light-collecting lens and an opaque shell. The light emitted by the lamp bead is converged by the light-collecting lens to the optical fiber port, and is transmitted to the optical fiber lamp via the optical fiber. The light emitted from the optical fiber light outlet is then diverged as parallel light through the light-emitting lens for lighting.

[0054] In order to solve the technical problem that the above-mentioned tunnel lighting system cannot provide flexible outline throughout the entire process, the overall idea is as follows:

[0055] Traditional tunnel lighting is difficult to set up outline lamps throughout the tunnel because the tunnel may have a certain curvature. Multiple and dense LED lighting lamps are arranged in a line to achieve lighting and outline functions. To solve the above problems, the optical fibers used in this application are divided into light-guiding optical fibers and through-light optical fibers. Light-guiding optical fibers can transmit light to the required position well, while through-light optical fibers are complete luminous bodies. In addition, optical fibers are made of flexible materials and can be bent greatly. Therefore, through-light optical fibers and light-guiding optical fibers are used in combination. The through-light optical fibers are located on the outer surface of the optical fiber bundle, and a complete outline line can be formed from the beginning to the end of the tunnel.

[0056] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0057] Depend on Figure 1-9 The present invention provides a fiber optic tunnel lighting system, which mainly includes a light distribution box 1, an optical fiber 2 and a fiber optic lamp 3. A light distribution box 1 is provided with a lamp board 11 inside, and a plurality of lamp beads 1111 are arranged on the lamp board 11. A heat dissipation device 112 is connected to the back of the lamp board 11 to dissipate heat for the lamp board 11 and ensure that it can meet the needs of more lamp beads 1111 to work simultaneously or continuously. Each lamp bead 1111, a light collecting lens 1112 and an optical fiber 2 form a light emitting unit 111, and each light emitting unit is wrapped by an opaque pipe shell, so that they will not interfere with each other. A battery 12 is connected to the lamp board 11, and the battery 12 can be used to power the lamp board 11, and the battery 12 is connected to a controller 13. One end of the optical fiber 2 is located at the focus of the light collecting lens 1112, and there is a certain distance between the light collecting lens 1112 and the lamp bead 1111, so that the light emitted by the lamp bead 1111 can be converged through the light collecting lens 1112 and enter the optical fiber 2 for transmission. The first light incident surface 1113 is from the light collecting lens 1112 to the entrance of the optical fiber 2 .

[0058] The optical fibers 2 in each light-emitting unit 111 converge in a rectangular space of the light distribution box 1 and form a fiber bundle extending from the light distribution box 1. The optical fibers 2 are divided into optical fiber 21 and through-light optical fiber 22. Each optical fiber 21 is provided with a corresponding optical fiber lamp 3. The main body of the optical fiber lamp 3 is a cylindrical shell 31. There is an opening in the center of the circular surface of the shell 31. The opening is provided with an optical fiber lamp fixture 32 inside the shell 31, so that the optical fiber 21 can extend out of the light distribution box 1, pass through the restraining position of the optical fiber stopper 23 on the way, reach the corresponding optical fiber lamp 3, extend from the opening of the shell 31 into the interior of the optical fiber lamp 3, and be fixed by the optical fiber lamp fixture 32. The opening of the optical fiber 21 is opposite to a light-emitting lens 33 and is located at the focus of the light-emitting lens 33, so that the light transmitted by the optical fiber 21 becomes parallel light after passing through the light-emitting lens 33 for lighting.

[0059] The area from the light emitting portion of the optical fiber 21 to the light emitting lens 33 is a first light emitting surface 34, and the area parallel to the light emitting lens 33 is a second light emitting surface 35. A motion sensor 36 and a light sensor 37 are arranged beside the optical fiber lamp 3.

[0060] In addition, a wire 41 extends from the storage battery 12 to connect to the solar panel 4. The solar panel 4 can be set at any location where solar energy can be used for power generation, and the generated energy enters the storage battery 12 through the wire 41 for storage.

[0061] The optical fiber 2 is tightened by the optical fiber stopper 23, and the optical fiber stopper 23 is an annular structure with an opening, and a base is arranged on the opposite side of the opening. It can be set on the inner wall of the tunnel by means of glue or screws to fix the position and the optical fiber bundle can be clamped and fixed by the annular structure. If a certain optical fiber lamp 3 is to be turned on, it is only necessary to turn on the lamp bead 1111 corresponding to the optical fiber lamp 3. The number of optical fibers 21 corresponds to the light lamp 3, and at least one through-body luminous optical fiber 22 is additionally arranged on this basis for flexible outline marking throughout the tunnel. The optical fiber bundles can be tied together with cable ties to prevent them from spreading, and then the position and direction are constrained by the optical fiber stopper 23. The through-body luminous optical fiber 22 should be placed on the outside of the optical fiber bundle and preferably close to the inside of the tunnel to obtain a better outline marking effect.

[0062] Depend on Fig.10 The controller 13 shown comprises:

[0063] The information acquisition module 131 is used to acquire information of the motion sensor and the light sensor;

[0064] An information processing module 132, used for processing the information from the information acquisition module;

[0065] The light control module 133 is used to control the light emitting power of the lamp beads;

[0066] The electric control module 134 is used to control the switch of the lamp beads and the scheduling of the power supply;

[0067] The power module 135 is used to supply power to the information acquisition module 131 , the information processing module 132 , the light control module 133 , and the electric control module 134 .

[0068] A light control method is provided, that is, each optical fiber lamp 3 is equipped with a motion sensor 36 and a light sensor 37, which obtains corresponding vehicle passing data and light data, and generates corresponding lighting information after processing, so that when a car passes, the lights within a certain range are turned on and off as the car passes, so that the lights are turned on when the car comes and off when the car leaves, so as to reduce the number of lights turned on to save energy. And according to the analysis of real-time light by the optical fiber sensor 37, the required brightness of each place can be determined for dynamic adjustment.

[0069] If only a motion sensor 36 is set at the entrance of the tunnel, the controller 13 is used to calculate the time at which the vehicle should arrive at the location in conjunction with the tunnel speed limit, so as to turn on the optical fiber lamp 3 in the corresponding location interval within the corresponding time interval, so that when the vehicle passes by, the lamps within a certain range are turned on and off as the vehicle passes by, so as to achieve the effect of the lamps turning on when the vehicle comes and turning off when the vehicle leaves, thereby reducing the number of lamps turned on to save energy. Moreover, compared with the above method, this method saves the configuration of related sensors, further reduces the wiring of wires, and simplifies the circuit setting, but has poor coping ability for complex road conditions such as traffic jams.

[0070] A power utilization method is provided. If the battery 12 has power, the power in the battery 12 is used first. If the battery 12 has no power, the power from the solar panel 4 is used first. If the power supply cannot be met, the power is consumed from the power grid. Therefore, the power source other than the power generated by the solar panel 4 is not used unless it is absolutely necessary to save the power usage.
