Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of lighting equipment technology, and in particular to a method for adjusting the light emission angle of a lighting device. Background Technology

[0002] The lighting equipment consists of a lamp body and a toggle switch mounted on the lamp body. The lamp body is equipped with multiple LED beads or other light sources. When lighting is applied, a driver power supply is connected via the lamp body's wires. This driver power supply, along with the toggle switch, drives the multiple LED beads on the lamp strip to illuminate, thus achieving the effect of emitting light to the outside. Existing lighting equipment is often fixed in a specific location, or while some fixtures are angle-adjustable, their inherent structural limitations prevent real-time adjustments to the beam angle based on actual needs, leading to inconvenience. Furthermore, existing adjustable beam angle lighting designs often require altering optical components, moving their positions, or increasing the distance between them and the light source to change the beam angle. This cumbersome process further exacerbates the problem. Additionally, improper installation outdoors can easily lead to water ingress, damaging the fixture's lifespan and causing quality issues. To address the aforementioned technical shortcomings, a solution is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for adjusting the power, color temperature, and optical angle of a lighting device using a toggle switch. This invention relates to the field of lighting device technology and is applied to adjusting the power, color temperature, and optical angle of a lighting device. The toggle switch controls the brightness and current of the LEDs and is fixed to the lighting device. The invention uses a heat sink to dissipate the heat generated during illumination by the optical components, achieves high sealing through multi-layer waterproof rings, and uses the toggle switch to switch the brightness and current of different LEDs to adjust the power, color temperature, and angle, thus executing dimming commands.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an adjustable optical angle method for lighting equipment, applied to dimming lighting equipment, to realize the adjustment of the optical angle of the lighting equipment. This solution can also receive dimming control commands through a Bluetooth / WIFI signal processing module, respond to control signals through an APP control program, and use an MCU microcontroller to switch MOS transistors to control the brightness and current of the LED circuit. By controlling the on / off state of the target switch, the optical angle can be automatically adjusted.

[0005] An adjustable optical angle method for lighting equipment is applied to dimming lighting equipment, which is equipped with a DIP switch assembly, a driving power supply, a light source and a lens; The DIP switch assembly includes toggle switch SW1, toggle switch SW2, and toggle switch SW3; The light source consists of four LEDs: C1, W1, C2, and W2. C1 and C2 are cool color temperatures, while W1 and W2 are warm color temperatures. C2 and W1 are located under the large-angle light envelope of the lens, while C1 and W2 are located under the small-angle light envelope of the lens. The angle of the small-angle light packet is 55 degrees, and the angle of the large-angle light packet is 100 degrees; The effective light output can be adjusted by toggling the DIP switch assembly. The adjustment process is as follows: S1. Control the on / off state of the four LEDs by toggling switches SW2 and SW3; Specifically: switch SW2 controls the on / off state of C2 and W1; Switch SW3 controls the on / off state of C1 and W2; S2. Referencing the reference adjustment mode, by toggling switch SW1, the current of the drive power supply is adjusted to control the luminous flux of the LED, and the effective light output is adjusted to the required reference adjustment mode. S3. If necessary, continue to toggle switch SW1 to fine-tune the effective light output.

[0006] Furthermore, the cool color temperature is 5000K and the warm color temperature is 3500K.

[0007] Furthermore, the effective light emission angle is divided into small light emission angle, medium light emission angle, and large light emission angle; The small light emission angle is 60 degrees, the medium light emission angle is 85 degrees, and the large light emission angle is 105 degrees.

[0008] Furthermore, the power adjustment process is as follows: the power of the lighting equipment is changed by adjusting the resistance of the driving power supply.

[0009] Furthermore, the lighting device includes a heat sink, a waterproof connector is installed on the top surface of the heat sink, a device cavity is provided inside the heat sink, a driving power supply is fixed on the inner wall of the device cavity, a cover is fixed on the outer surface of the device cavity by a threaded connection, a waterproof ring is provided between the contact surface of the cover and the device cavity, a fixing groove is opened inside the cover, a DIP switch assembly is installed on the inner wall of the fixing groove, one side surface of the DIP switch assembly is in contact with the driving power supply and the sensor PCB, a light source is fixed on the bottom surface of the heat sink by a threaded connection, and a waterproof ring is fitted on the outer surface of the light source.

[0010] Furthermore, the top surface of the radiator is provided with a mounting hole, and a waterproof connector is installed at the mounting hole by means of a thread. A wire-passing rubber plug is installed between the waterproof connector and the mounting hole.

[0011] Furthermore, the front of the heat sink is equipped with a light control switch, which can control the switching of the lights according to day or night.

[0012] Furthermore, the effective light emission angle is related to the luminous flux of the four LEDs. For an effective light emission angle of 100lm, the corresponding relationship is as follows: The effective light output at small angles is 100 lm, and the luminous flux under small-angle light packets is 35 lm. Effective light output at medium angles: 100 lm for small-angle light packets and 400 lm for large-angle light packets; Effective light output at large angles: 100 lm for small-angle light packets and 800 lm for large-angle light packets; To adjust the luminous flux without changing the angle, simply adjust the sum of the luminous flux of the two light packets proportionally.

[0013] Furthermore, the effective color temperature of the emitted light is related to the ratio of the luminous flux of the four LEDs, and the corresponding relationship is as follows: For warm color temperatures, the ratio of the sum of the luminous flux of C1 and C2 to the sum of the luminous flux of W1 and W2 is 9 to 31. For a neutral color temperature, the ratio of luminous flux of C1 to W2 is 47 to 53. For cool color temperatures, the ratio of luminous flux of C1 to W2 is 4 to 1; The neutral color temperature is 4000K. To adjust the luminous flux without changing the color temperature, simply adjust the sum of the luminous fluxes of C1 and C2, and W1 and W2 proportionally.

[0014] Furthermore, color temperature and angle can be combined to form 9 reference adjustment modes. Taking 100lm luminous flux as the standard, the 9 reference adjustment modes are as follows: A 100lm wide-angle warm color temperature corresponds to luminous fluxes of 22.5lm, 180lm, 620lm, and 77.5lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm wide-angle neutral color temperature corresponds to luminous fluxes of 47lm, 376lm, 424lm, and 53lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm wide-angle cool color temperature corresponds to luminous flux of 80lm, 640lm, 160lm, and 20lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm warm color temperature at a mid-angle corresponds to luminous fluxes of 22.5lm, 67.5lm, 222.5lm, and 77.5lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A neutral color temperature at a mid-angle of 100lm corresponds to luminous fluxes of 47lm, 141lm, 159lm, and 53lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm mid-angle cool color temperature corresponds to luminous fluxes of 80lm, 240lm, 60lm, and 20lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm warm color temperature at a small angle corresponds to luminous fluxes of 22.5lm, 7.875lm, 27.125lm, and 77.5lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm small-angle neutral color temperature corresponds to luminous fluxes of 47lm, 16.45lm, 18.55lm, and 53lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm small-angle cool color temperature corresponds to luminous fluxes of 80lm, 28lm, 7lm, and 20lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively.

[0015] Furthermore, by adjusting the luminous flux of the four LEDs proportionally, luminous flux adjustment in nine reference adjustment modes can be achieved.

[0016] Beneficial effects: (1) The heat sink dissipates the heat generated by the optical components during illumination and achieves high sealing performance through multiple waterproof rings; (2) The large-angle light package and the small-angle light package are controlled by two switches, and the luminous flux of the LED is controlled by a separate switch, which can improve the accuracy and convenience of light adjustment; (3) The reference adjustment mode provides 9 adjustment references. Based on these, users can make personalized adjustments to the lights according to their own needs, which improves the convenience of user adjustment. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The selected lens 3 includes two types of lenses with light emission angles of 55 degrees and 100 degrees. The effective light emission angle is related to the luminous flux of the four LEDs. For an effective light emission angle of 100lm, the corresponding relationship is as follows: The effective light output at small angles is 100 lm, and the luminous flux under small-angle light packets is 35 lm. Effective light output at medium angles: 100 lm for small-angle light packets and 400 lm for large-angle light packets; Effective light output at large angles: 100 lm for small-angle light packets and 800 lm for large-angle light packets; To adjust the luminous flux without changing the angle, simply adjust the sum of the luminous flux of the two light packets proportionally.

[0024] The effective color temperature of the emitted light is related to the ratio of the luminous flux of the four LEDs, and the corresponding relationship is as follows: For warm color temperatures, the ratio of the sum of the luminous flux of C1 and C2 to the sum of the luminous flux of W1 and W2 is 9 to 31. For a neutral color temperature, the ratio of luminous flux of C1 to W2 is 47 to 53. For cool color temperatures, the ratio of luminous flux of C1 to W2 is 4 to 1; The neutral color temperature is 4000K. To adjust the luminous flux without changing the color temperature, simply adjust the sum of the luminous fluxes of C1 and C2, and W1 and W2 proportionally. Color temperature and angle can be combined to form 9 reference adjustment modes. Taking 100lm luminous flux as the standard, the 9 reference adjustment modes are as follows: A 100lm wide-angle warm color temperature corresponds to luminous fluxes of 22.5lm, 180lm, 620lm, and 77.5lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm wide-angle neutral color temperature corresponds to luminous fluxes of 47lm, 376lm, 424lm, and 53lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm wide-angle cool color temperature corresponds to luminous flux of 80lm, 640lm, 160lm, and 20lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively. A 100lm warm color temperature at a mid-angle corresponds to luminous fluxes of 22.5lm, 67.5lm, 222.5lm, and 77.5lm for C1, C2, W1, and W2, respectively.

By adjusting the luminous flux of the four LEDs proportionally, nine reference adjustment modes can be achieved for luminous flux adjustment.

[0025] Furthermore, the dimming lighting device can also be controlled by issuing control commands through an APP control program. The specific process is as follows: the dimming control command issued by the APP control program is received through the Bluetooth / WIFI signal processing module, and the MCU microcontroller outputs the corresponding control signal to control the switching of the MOS transistor, thereby controlling the brightness and current of the LED in the control circuit and realizing automatic adjustment of the optical angle.

[0026] Example 2 Based on Example 1, the intelligent automatic adjustment process is further presented as follows: A DIP switch assembly 1 is installed in the fixing slot of the cover 7, making it contact the drive power supply 2 and the sensor PCB 26. A Bluetooth / WIFI signal processing module, an MCU microcontroller, and a switching MOSFET are also installed. The circuit connection diagram is shown below. Figure 1 As shown; Install a light control switch on the front of the heatsink 6 to ensure it can accurately detect ambient light intensity.

[0027] Download the corresponding control APP on your mobile phone and connect to the lighting equipment via Bluetooth or WIFI. In the APP interface, select small angle light distribution, luminous flux of 100lm, and warm color temperature. At this time, the signal processing module receives the instruction and transmits it to the MCU microcontroller. The microcontroller controls the switching MOSFET to turn on the corresponding circuit, so that the luminous flux of C1, C2, W1, and W2 are 22.5lm, 7.875lm, 27.125lm, and 77.5lm, respectively. If you need to adjust the angle, luminous flux, or color temperature, you can also set these parameters in the app.

[0028] Light-controlled automatic switch: When the ambient light is strong during the day, the light-controlled switch detects the strong light signal and automatically cuts off the power supply to the lamp, turning off the equipment; at night, when the light is weak, the light-controlled switch triggers the power supply to turn on, and the equipment automatically lights up without manual operation.
