Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tunnel lighting, in particular to an optical fiber lighting compensation device. Background Art
[0002] The concept of solar fiber optic lighting system was proposed at the end of the 20th century. It combines a series of patented technologies such as sun tracking and lens focusing to greatly increase the brightness of sunlight at the focal point, and guides light to where lighting is needed through high-transmittance optical fibers. Compared with traditional lighting technology, it is not restricted by the wiring of lighting facilities and the constraints of power base stations, and can also reduce energy consumption.
[0003] Tunnels in my country are important throats of highway and railway systems. During the construction and operation of tunnels, stable lighting needs to be provided. Usually, LED lamp groups are used for tunnel lighting. LED lighting has low energy consumption and can provide uniform lighting effects, improving visibility in tunnels and drivers' sense of security. Experiments show that the road illuminance during the day is not much different from that at the tunnel entrance, but the maximum difference between the tunnel entrance and the tunnel is more than 1,900 times. At night, the surrounding environment of the road outside the tunnel is relatively open, and the difference in illuminance inside and outside the tunnel can even reach tens of thousands of times. When entering the tunnel from outside, the eyes need a dark adaptation process, which takes a short time, but the eyes will not be able to see clearly. When coming out of the tunnel, there is a light adaptation process. It is relatively dark in the tunnel for a long time. After leaving the tunnel, there will be a bright white in front of the eyes, which is also a state of not being able to see clearly. However, according to research, the light adaptation process is shorter than the dark adaptation process. When driving at a relatively fast speed, when encountering dark adaptation, there will be a "visual blank" where you can't see anything in an instant, which poses a great safety hazard.
[0004] During this adaptation process, if there are sudden situations such as oncoming vehicles or deteriorating road conditions, traffic accidents can easily occur. In addition, when connecting and passing through multiple discontinuous tunnels, dark adaptation will affect the driver's mental state and make driving fatigue prone. Research should be conducted on the difference in brightness inside and outside the tunnel, and it is necessary to design a technical solution that can optimize the lighting system inside and outside the tunnel.

[0031] Preferably, the control terminal 1, the optical fiber lighting module 2 and the LED lighting module 3 are fixed to the tunnel wall by bolts. Example 2
[0032] The brightness detection unit 12 is used to detect the light brightness inside the tunnel and the light brightness outside the tunnel; the main control unit 11 receives the light brightness data of the brightness detection unit 12, and controls the lighting compensation unit 13 to adjust the lighting brightness of the optical fiber lighting module 2 and the LED lighting module 3, so that the light brightness at the tunnel entrance reaches a natural transition state.
[0033] Preferably, the transmittance adjustment mechanism 22 is provided with at least three sliding grooves 221, and the sliding grooves 221 are equipped with lens pieces 222 with different transmittances; when the lighting compensation unit 13 adjusts the lighting brightness of the optical fiber lighting module 2, by controlling the electromagnet 2231 assembled on the end cover 223, since the electromagnet 2231 and the magnet 2221 correspond one to one, and a magnetic isolation plate is provided between adjacent sliding grooves; the electromagnet 2231 is magnetized respectively, so that the electromagnet 2231 has the same magnetism as the magnet 2221, and since magnetic materials of the same polarity repel each other, The lens piece 222 can be pushed forward along the sliding groove 221 so that the lens piece 222 intervenes in the optical fiber channel to adjust the lighting brightness; the electromagnet 2231 is magnetized so that the electromagnet 2231 has a magnetism opposite to that of the magnet 2221.
