Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of LED lighting, in particular to an adaptive chlorophyll light effect plant lighting system. Background Art
[0002] The spectrum of natural light matches the light quality to which plants have evolved over time. This effectively promotes photosynthesis and regulates their growth cycles, helping them synthesize key nutrients, including vitamins and antioxidants. These substances may not be fully synthesized when relying solely on artificial light sources. However, the practical use of natural light is limited by weather variations, geographic location, and seasonal changes, resulting in unstable availability. Therefore, to ensure healthy plant growth even when natural light conditions are less than ideal, artificial lighting, particularly LED horticultural lighting, has become a necessary supplement. With its high energy efficiency, long lifespan, and adjustable spectrum, LED horticultural lighting is gradually becoming a leading edge of research and application.
[0003] With the continued growth of the global population and accelerating urbanization, traditional agriculture is facing challenges such as limited land resources, uncertain climate change, and insufficient production efficiency. To address these challenges, ensure food safety, and increase crop yields, innovative agricultural models such as plant factories and indoor farming have emerged. These models rely on artificial light sources to simulate natural light conditions to support plant growth. Among the various artificial light sources, LED plant growth lights have become a research focus and technological breakthrough in this field due to their excellent energy efficiency, long lifespan, and customizable spectral output.
[0004] Current LED plant lighting technology primarily focuses on spectral matching when simulating natural light. For example, the patent "A Light-Emitting Device and Method for Regulating Plant Growth Therewith (CN201610218900.2)" aims to address the inability of existing light sources to fully simulate natural light. However, the importance of plant photosynthesis efficiency and time factors is often overlooked. Utility Model Content

[0029] refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 This embodiment provides an adaptive chlorophyll light effect plant lighting system, which includes an LED light source, a circuit board, a power module, a control module and a current driver.
[0030] Among them, the LED light source is composed of LED lamp beads of multiple colors distributed along the array to form an LED array. The LED array includes blue light (wavelength range is set at 430nm-4700nm), green light (wavelength is set at 540nm) and red light (wavelength range is set at 640nm-660nm), which is used to generate a wide-band spectrum.
[0031] Circuit boards connect various modules and provide a physical path for electronic signal transmission.
[0032] The power module provides stable power supply for the entire system.
[0033] The control module is responsible for receiving sensor signals and user input, processing data, and controlling other modules. A specific spectral combination, based on the chlorophyll absorption spectrum factors of the natural spectrum at different times, is input into this control module. The control module then issues control commands based on this specific spectrum.
[0034] The current driver adjusts the current of the LED array according to the control instructions issued by the control module to adjust the light intensity and spectral output.
[0035] The LED lamp beads in the LED array are composed of an even number of blue lights, an even number of red lights and an odd number of green lights. Based on the matching with the absorption of light by chlorophyll, considering that the mixed use of red and blue LEDs can improve photosynthesis activity, support plant production and regulate morphological construction, and taking into account the utilization of green light by plants, this embodiment selects a group of two blue light LEDs (blue lights), one green light LED (green light) and two red light LEDs (red lights) for array distribution. Among them, the two blue lights in a group are set to two blue lights with different wavelengths, and the wavelengths of the two blue lights are set to 430nm and 470nm respectively; the two red lights in a group are set to two red lights with different wavelengths, and the wavelengths of the two red lights are set to 640nm and 660nm respectively; the wavelength of the green light is set to 540nm.
[0036] In this embodiment, the specific spectrum is a composite spectrum of the three primary colors red, green, and blue based on the chlorophyll absorption spectrum factor at different time periods of the natural spectrum. The chlorophyll absorption spectrum factor (CAE) is defined as the ratio of the chlorophyll absorption radiation efficiency (CLER) to the radiation efficiency (LER). The chlorophyll absorption radiation efficiency (CLER) is the ratio of the chlorophyll absorption flux to the radiation flux. The specific spectrum measurement is as follows:
[0037] Measurement of natural light spectrum
[0038] To obtain natural light spectrum data, this example selects clear, light-free days throughout the year and measures the natural light spectrum every hour from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The spectral data for these selected days is then averaged to determine representative natural light spectra for spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
[0039] Evaluation of chlorophyll absorption spectrum efficiency
[0040] In this example, lettuce was selected as the experimental sample to obtain its chlorophyll absorption spectrum. The experimental steps included:
[0041] Chlorophyll extraction: Mix chopped lettuce leaves with the extract (ethanol), grind them in a mortar to dissolve the chlorophyll in the extract.
[0042] Spectral measurement: A spectrometer is used to perform spectral absorption testing on the chlorophyll extract. Chlorophyll's main absorption peaks are located in the blue-violet region (approximately 430nm) and the red region (approximately 662nm). The absorption values at these two wavelengths are used to estimate the content of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b.
[0043] Data processing: Draw the spectral absorption curve of chlorophyll based on the absorption spectrum data, such as Figure 2 The chlorophyll absorption spectrum curve P(λ) of lettuce is shown.
[0044] Similar to the light efficiency of radiation (LER), this embodiment defines the chlorophyll absorption light efficiency (CLER) as the ratio of the chlorophyll-absorbed light flux to the radiant flux. The chlorophyll absorption spectral factor (CAE) is defined as the ratio of the CLER to the LER, reflecting the concentration of light energy in the chlorophyll-sensitive spectral region. The calculation formula is as follows, where S(λ) is the light source spectrum:
[0045]
[0046]
[0047] For the specific spectrum, see Figure 3 The correlated color temperature (CCT), color rendering index (CRI), and chlorophyll absorption spectral factor (CAE) were selected as optimization targets to achieve excellent visual and photosynthesis performance. The CAE is calculated from the natural spectrum measured above at different times of the day.
[0048] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the design concept of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field who uses this concept to make non-substantial changes to the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention shall be deemed to infringe the protection scope of the present invention.
