[0003] The precision approach course indication system currently used in airport navigation lighting can indicate five types of slope signals, namely: above the approach course, slightly above the approach course, on the approach course, slightly below the approach course and below the approach course. The correct approach course slope is 3°.
[0004] The main optical architecture of the current precision approach path indication system lighting is as follows:

The advantage is that a better light spot cutoff line can be formed. The disadvantage is that the light output efficiency is very low, resulting in low light intensity and unable to form a clear indication effect.
[0006] 2. Use LED light source plus collimating lens, use light homogenizing rod to form red and white cut-off line, and then use imaging lens to form required lighting angle and better spot cut-off line. The advantage is that better spot cut-off line can be formed, and the light output efficiency and light effect are improved, but higher light output efficiency cannot be obtained.
[0007] At present, the above two optical architectures cannot significantly improve the light efficiency of the optical system. At the same time, there are too many optical devices, the optical structure is complex, and the light decay is serious, which leads to excessive power of the whole lamp. Utility Model Content

[0015] As a more preferred embodiment, the TIR lens also includes a lens structure arranged in the light guide cover, and a TIR total reflection surface is arranged on the inner side of the light guide cover. A part of the outgoing light from the scattered light source array is refracted by the lens structure and directly emitted from the light outlet, and another part of the outgoing light is refracted by the lens structure and emitted toward the TIR total reflection surface, and then emitted from the light outlet after being reflected by the TIR total reflection surface.
[0016] As a more preferred embodiment, the lens structure includes a refractive cover and a refractive lens covering one end of the refractive cover, and the other end of the refractive cover is covered on the light inlet of the light guide cover. A portion of the outgoing light from the scattered light source array is refracted by the refractive lens and directly emitted from the light outlet, and another portion of the outgoing light is refracted by the refractive cover and emitted toward the TIR total reflection surface, and then emitted from the light outlet after being reflected by the TIR total reflection surface.

The number of the TIR lenses 11 is consistent with the number of single light sources of the scattered light source array, and the TIR lenses 11 are respectively covered on the single light sources. The outgoing light of the single light source is deflected by the TIR lenses 11 toward the refractive prism 12 and further deflected toward the central axis direction of the scattered light source array through the refractive prism 12.
