Description

[0002] Precision approach channel indicating system is the core component of airport navigation lighting system, provides visual glide path guidance for pilots, ensures that the aircraft maintains safe height and angle in the approach phase.Currently, the precision approach channel indicating system lamp mainly uses the following two optical architectures:

[0003] Architecture one: including halogen light source, collimating lens, optical filter and imaging lens, collimated halogen light source, optical filter and imaging lens can form the required lighting distribution angle and better light spot cutoff line, its advantage is that the light spot cutoff line formed is better.But, since halogen light source power loss is larger, and the wavelength and color of light are more difficult to control, usually need to add optical filter to adjust the color of light, and optical filter needs additional components to adjust the quality and color of light, thus leading to the increase of structural complexity.And, the optical efficiency of collimating lens is lower, and the generated light may not be uniform.And, since the power consumption and heat dissipation requirement of halogen light source, the weight of lamp body is also increased.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and not to limit the present application.

[0039] As Figures 1-4To solve the above problems and other related problems, the utility model provides a kind of precision approach channel indicator, comprising: light source reflector, including reflecting surface, the reflecting surface includes the upper reflecting surface 5 and lower reflecting surface 6 being symmetrically arranged along horizontal direction, wherein the upper reflecting surface 5 and lower reflecting surface 6 intersect and intersection angle range is 20 °~160 °;Light source module, including red light LED module 1 and white light LED module 2, wherein the light source module is symmetrically arranged along horizontal direction in the mode that red light LED module 1 is on, white light LED module 2 is down, and the light exit surface of red light LED module 1 and white light LED module 2 respectively faces the upper reflecting surface 5 and lower reflecting surface 6;Imaging lens module 7, the imaging lens module 7 faces the reflecting surface of light source reflector and is symmetrically arranged along horizontal direction, wherein the focal point of the imaging lens near the reflecting surface side is located on the intersection line at the intersection of the upper reflecting surface 5 and lower reflecting surface 6;Shell, the inside of the shell is hollowed out cavity to accommodate light source reflector, light source module and imaging lens module 7, wherein opening is arranged in the shell side close to the imaging lens;The light rays of red light LED module 1 and white light LED module 2 respectively after the reflection of the upper reflecting surface 5 and lower reflecting surface 6 jointly enter the imaging lens and are shot from the opening of the shell after passing through the imaging lens.

[0040] As Figure 2 As shown, preferably, the red light LED module 1 and white light LED module 2 in the present application are arranged as a 2x6 LED light-emitting array, i.e., the LED light-emitting units 4 are arranged in two rows and six columns to form a light source module with a total of 12 LED light-emitting units 4.

[0041] The intersection of the upper reflecting surface 5 and lower reflecting surface 6 and the intersection angle range of 20 °~160 ° is to ensure that the light from the red light and white light LED module 2 can enter the imaging lens module 7 correctly after reflection, and to avoid light distortion. Specifically, if the intersection angle is too small (e.g., less than 20 °), the light may be too concentrated or unable to enter the lens through the reflecting surface; if the intersection angle is too large (e.g., greater than 160 °), the propagation of light will be too dispersed, resulting in the light unable to effectively converge on the lens. Ensuring that the intersection angle is within the range of 20 °~160 ° can ensure that the light enters the imaging lens module 7 smoothly, thereby improving the optical efficiency and precision. Moreover, if the intersection angle is not appropriate, the light may appear excessive deflection or uneven propagation path after reflection, resulting in light distortion and the inability to form a clear light spot or light beam. The setting of the intersection angle range helps to control the propagation angle of the light, ensuring that the propagation path of the light before the lens does not deviate or distort, and ultimately accurately irradiating the target area.

[0042] The precision approach path indicator is mainly used to provide precise approach angle indication for aircraft, which indicates the current flight height state of the pilot through different color light beams. Specifically, when the pilot observes the arrangement of red and white light beams of the precision approach path indicator during the flight approach, he can determine his current flight height and angle. In the traditional design of the precision approach path indicator, the light beam arrangement is usually set as red light below and white light above, which is closely related to the flight height of the pilot. The pilot determines his flight state by observing the intersection line of red and white light. If the pilot sees red light, it means that he is flying too high and needs to descend; on the contrary, if he sees white light, it indicates that the pilot needs to increase the height. Therefore, in order to ensure accurate approach indication, the precision approach path indicator described in the present application adopts a special light beam arrangement. However, in actual application, when a single precision approach path indicator is used, its red-white boundary line may become blurred due to atmospheric refraction, pilot visual angle error or background light interference, especially in complex weather conditions (such as fog, rain), it is more difficult to identify. In addition, a single precision approach path indicator can only provide a binary judgment of "correct / high / low", and cannot inform the pilot of the "degree of deviation". The pilot cannot determine whether he deviates from the correct glide path slightly or seriously through a single light, so multiple indicators are often set on the runway, and the specific indication principle is known to those skilled in the art, which will not be described here.

[0043] Due to the above design requirements, in the precision approach path indicator of the present application, the light source module is designed with the red light LED module 1 located above and the white light LED module 2 located below. After reflection by the light source reflector, the light beams of red and white light still maintain the original state, with red light above and white light below. Then these light beams pass through the imaging lens module 7. According to the refraction and imaging characteristics of light, color inversion of the light beams occurs during imaging, i.e. the originally located upper red light is refracted to the lower side, while the white light located below is refracted to the upper side, finally forming a light beam state with white light above and red light below.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present application, the upper reflecting surface 5 and the lower reflecting surface 6 are connected at the intersection point by a round or chamfered corner, and the round or chamfered corner should satisfy: wherein d is the vertical height of the round or chamfered corner, f is the focal length of the imaging lens, and θ is the allowable angle of the red-white light spot cutoff line blur zone.

[0045] The emergent light beam of the precision approach path indicator needs to form a clear red-white light boundary. When the red-white light boundary is blurred, the pilot may not be able to clearly distinguish which part is the red light and which part is the white light. If the height is too high, the white light should be seen, but if the boundary is not clear, the pilot may see a transition color or color mixing state, causing misjudgment, thinking that the height is appropriate, although it may still be too high or too low. And during the flight, the pilot's angle of view, weather conditions or light changes may affect the visual effect, and the unclear red-white light boundary may cause the pilot to be visually uncertain, causing them to be unable to confirm whether the light clearly shows red or white, thereby affecting their judgment of the flight height, and mistakenly thinking that they are at the correct approach angle and not making the necessary height adjustment in time, which will increase the risk of flight, especially in complex landing environments. Therefore, a better red-white light boundary needs to be formed.

[0046] Therefore, the intersection line formed by the upper reflecting surface 5 and the lower reflecting surface 6 at the intersection point should be very sharp. In actual application, an ideal sharp intersection line cannot be achieved in the process, and a small fillet or chamfer is often set. The vertical height of the connecting line from the starting point to the ending point in the vertical direction is d. In order to keep the intersection line sharp, the horizontal projection height of the intersection line should be less than d. This condition, that is, the vertical height should be small enough, and the fillet or chamfer formed at the intersection line should be small enough, less than the threshold value determined by the formula, can achieve a better red-white light boundary.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present application, the light source module includes a circuit substrate 9, a plurality of light emitting units 4, and a collimating TIR lens 3. The collimating TIR lens 3 is a bowl-shaped solid structure, and the collimating TIR lens 3 is arranged above the light emitting unit 4 in a bowl opening upward manner.

[0048] The collimating TIR lens 3 can effectively collimate or concentrate the light emitted from the LED light emitting unit 4 through the principle of total internal reflection, thereby making the light beam more concentrated and reducing light scattering. Not only can the light flux output of the light source be significantly improved, but the energy loss can also be effectively reduced, and the utilization rate of light can be optimized. Moreover, the bowl-shaped structure design can make the light emitted from the LED light emitting unit 4 quickly concentrate to the predetermined direction of the light source. This structure can ensure that most of the light propagates along a specific path, reducing light dispersion, thereby improving the directionality and concentration of the light beam. In addition, the bowl-shaped lens can effectively reduce the interference between the light source and the optical system, maximize the use of light emitted by the light source, and avoid the light beam deviation or scattering problems that may be caused by traditional plane lenses.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present application, the collimating TIR lens 3 is made of a light-transmitting material, which includes PC. Since PC material has a high light transmittance, it can effectively transmit light and reduce light loss. Therefore, using PC as the light-transmitting material can ensure that the collimating TIR lens 3 can maximize the transmission of light emitted by the light source module to a specified direction, thereby improving the overall optical efficiency. Moreover, PC material has stable optical performance and a smooth surface, which can reduce light scattering and refraction, improve collimation effect, and enable the lens to better focus light, thereby maintaining the directionality and consistency of the light beam. In addition, PC material also has high mechanical strength and impact resistance, and can withstand high mechanical pressure, impact and temperature changes, thereby increasing the service life and stability of the product. In particular, in high-intensity lighting equipment, PC material can effectively avoid damage caused by external impact or environmental factors. In addition, PC material has good processability and can be easily manufactured into complex optical shapes, which meets the precise optical design requirements of the collimating TIR lens 3 and is easy to mass-produce, thereby keeping the production cost low.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present application, the light source module includes a circuit substrate 9, a plurality of light emitting units 4, and a collimating light reflector 3, which is in the form of a hollow bowl-shaped structure with openings on both sides and covers the light emitting units 4 in a manner with the bowl opening facing upwards.

[0051] The collimating light reflector 3 is a specially designed optical element, which usually has a reflective surface with a specific curvature, such as a parabolic surface, a conical surface, or other shapes, to reflect the incident divergent light into parallel light. It is used to collimate the light emitted by the light source (such as the LED light emitting unit 4), making the light more concentrated, avoiding most of the light scattering and energy loss, thereby improving the optical efficiency and overall brightness. The bowl-shaped reflector structure can effectively reflect and concentrate the light emitted by the light emitting unit 4, change the propagation path of the light, control the divergence angle of the light beam, and enable the light to be focused into a more concentrated beam, reducing unnecessary scattering and ensuring the uniformity and directionality of the light beam. Moreover, the bowl-shaped reflector can effectively collect the light emitted from the light emitting unit 4 and guide the light to a specified direction of the optical system through its curved surface reflection. Compared with simple plane reflection, this curved surface reflection can more efficiently concentrate the light, thereby increasing the output efficiency of the light source. Furthermore, the design of the bowl-shaped reflector helps to provide more uniform light distribution, reduce the non-uniformity of the light source, and make the final emitted light more stable, reducing the fluctuation of light spots or brightness.

[0052] In an embodiment of the present application, the collimating light reflector 3 is made of metal or PC material, and the reflective surface on the inner side of the collimating light reflector 3 is coated with a reflective film.

[0053] The reflective film serves to improve the reflection efficiency of the reflector. By coating the reflective surface with a high-reflectivity material (such as a metal reflective film of aluminum or silver), the loss of light on the reflective surface can be greatly reduced, ensuring that more light is reflected back to the collimation direction. This helps to improve the efficiency of the light source, reduce light waste, and further improve the performance of the entire optical system.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present application, the collimating TIR lens 3 or the bowl opening of the collimating light reflector 3 is provided with a polarized micro-prism 10.

[0055] The micro-prism can adjust the direction and distribution of light, making the light more uniform. Through precise angle adjustment, the micro-prism can effectively reduce the focusing effect of the light beam, making the light distribution more uniform, which helps to avoid the occurrence of hot spots or overly concentrated light spots, making the final lighting effect more soft and stable.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present application, the imaging lens module 7 includes one or more lenses, wherein the lenses include aspherical lenses and double-cemented lenses.

[0057] The design of aspherical lenses aims to reduce or eliminate aberrations (such as spherical aberration, coma, etc.) caused by traditional spherical lenses, thereby improving imaging quality. Through precise curvature design, aspherical lenses can focus light more accurately, reducing optical distortion, especially in applications such as large aperture and wide field of view, aspherical lenses can significantly improve imaging performance. In the present application, aspherical lenses can improve the focusing accuracy of light, reduce optical aberrations, help reduce errors in the system, and improve the overall performance of the lens module. Double-cemented lenses are composed of two lenses made of different materials, usually a convex lens combined with a concave lens, or two lenses with different refractive indices combined. In the present application, double-cemented lenses can effectively control chromatic aberration by combining the characteristics of different materials, improve the color performance of the image, and to some extent, make up for the shortcomings of single lens material in controlling chromatic aberration, in order to form clear and easily recognizable red and white light.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the reflective surface is coated with a high-reflective film, and the material of the high-reflective film includes aluminum and silver.

[0059] The main function of the high-reflective film is to enhance the reflection effect of the reflective surface on light. By coating the reflective surface with a high-reflective film, the present application can significantly improve the reflectivity of light, so that more light can be effectively reflected back to the imaging lens, thereby reducing light loss.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present application, a protective glass 8 is provided at the opening of the housing, and the surface of the protective glass 8 is coated with an anti-reflective film for eliminating stray light.

[0061] The protection glass is located outside the light source module and protects the internal optical elements.

[0062] In summary, the present application effectively overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and has a high industrial utilization value.

[0063] The above embodiments only exemplarily illustrate the principles and effects of the present application, and are not used to limit the present application. Any person skilled in the art can modify or change the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed by the present application should be covered by the claims of the present application.
