Description

[Technical field]

[0001] SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE The present invention relates to a light emitting module and a lighting device. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, there is a lighting device that includes a light-emitting module in which a light-emitting element is mounted on a module substrate, and a lighting circuit that supplies lighting power to the light-emitting module. The lighting circuit generates noise because it performs power conversion to convert input power to a predetermined lighting power.

[0003] Generally, lighting circuits are equipped with noise countermeasures to reduce noise using noise filters, etc., but there are cases where sufficient noise countermeasures cannot be implemented due to constraints on the size of the lighting circuit, and it is desirable to be able to implement noise countermeasures even in such cases.

Anode side of connected in series to 1.

[0008] [Figure 1] 1 is a circuit diagram of a lighting device including a light-emitting module according to an embodiment. [Diagram 2] 4 is a graph showing impedance characteristics of a ferrite bead included in the light emitting module. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0010] 1 shows a lighting device 10. The lighting device 10 includes a light-emitting module 11 and a lighting circuit 12.

[0011] The lighting device 10 includes, for example, a lamp device such as a light bulb-shaped lamp. In the case of a lamp device, a lighting circuit 12 is housed in a cylindrical housing, a light emitting module 11 is disposed on one end side of the housing, a globe is disposed covering the light emitting module 11, and a base is disposed on the other end side of the housing. The housing includes a metal housing, and the base includes an E17 base or an E26 base that can be connected to a socket for a general lighting bulb.

[0012] The light emitting module 11 includes a module substrate 20, a light emitting element 21 mounted on the module substrate 20, ferrite beads L1, L2, capacitors C1, C2, and a connector 22 which is an input part for lighting power from the lighting circuit 12.

[0013] The module substrate 20 is made of a metal material such as aluminum. An insulating layer is formed on one surface of the module substrate 20, which is a mounting surface, and a wiring pattern 23 is formed on the insulating layer. The light emitting element 21, ferrite beads L1, L2, capacitors C1, C2, and connector 22 are surface-mounted on the wiring pattern 23 and electrically connected thereto.

[0014] The wiring pattern 23 has a first wiring pattern 23a which is the high potential side between the light-emitting element 21 and the connector 22, a second wiring pattern 23b which is the low potential side, and a third wiring pattern 23c for connecting the second wiring pattern 23b to the ground side (the side of the housing indicated by symbol A in Figure 1).

[0015] Although the module substrate 20 is shown in a rectangular shape in Fig. 1, in the case of a lamp device, it is formed in a circular shape, disposed on one end side of a metal housing, and attached in a state of being thermally connected to the metal housing by a plurality of screws. The ground side of the third wiring pattern 23c is electrically connected to the metal housing (A in Fig. 1) via the screws.

[0016] The light emitting element 21 includes, for example, an LED. The LED is mounted on, for example, an element substrate, and is mounted and electrically connected to the wiring pattern 23 of the module substrate 20, that is, to straddle the first wiring pattern 23a and the second wiring pattern 23b, by the element substrate. Note that, for the light emitting element 21, an SMD (Surface Mount Device) package or a COB (Chip On Board) module may be used, or a light emitting element other than an LED, such as an organic EL, may be used.

[0017] The light emitting element 21 has an anode on the positive side, which is a high potential side, and a cathode on the negative side, which is a low potential side, with the anode side connected to the first wiring pattern 23a and the cathode side connected to the second wiring pattern 23b.

[0018] The ferrite beads L1 and L2 are, for example, surface-mountable chip-shaped and surface-mounted on the wiring pattern 23 of the module substrate 20. The first ferrite bead L1 is connected in series to the anode side of the light-emitting element 21 on the first wiring pattern 23a between the anode side of the light-emitting element 21 and the positive pole side of the connector 22. The second ferrite bead L2 is connected in series to the cathode side of the light-emitting element 21 on the second wiring pattern 23b between the cathode side of the light-emitting element 21 and the negative pole side of the connector 22. The ferrite beads L1 and L2 are connected at a position closer to the connector 22 than the light-emitting element 21. That is, the length of each of the wiring patterns 23a and 23b between the ferrite beads L1 and L2 and the connector 22 is shorter than the length of each of the wiring patterns 23a and 23b between the ferrite beads L1 and L2 and the light-emitting element 21.

[0019] The impedance characteristics of the ferrite beads L1, L2 are shown in the graph of Fig. 2. The ferrite beads L1, L2 have the highest impedance peak within the frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 GHz. This impedance characteristic reduces the conducted noise in the high frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 GHz superimposed on the lighting power supplied from the lighting circuit 12 to the light emitting module 11, and the reduction in the conducted noise reduces the radiation noise in the range of 30 MHz to 1 GHz radiated from the wiring pattern 23 as an antenna.

[0020] Since the radiation noise generated by the conduction noise superimposed on the lighting power supplied from the lighting circuit 12 to the light emitting module 11 is mostly contained in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 100 MHz, in order to effectively reduce the radiation noise, it is preferable to use ferrite beads L1, L2 whose impedance peak is in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 100 MHz or near a frequency of 100 MHz and whose impedance at frequencies of 30 MHz to 100 MHz is 200 Ω or more.

[0021] The capacitors C1 and C2 are mounted in series on the third wiring pattern 23c of the module substrate 20. One end of the capacitors C1 and C2 is connected to the second wiring pattern 23b between the cathode side of the light-emitting element 21 and the ferrite bead L2 so as to be connected in series to the cathode side of the light-emitting element 21, and the other end of the capacitors C1 and C2 is electrically connected to the metal housing (A in FIG. 1), which is the ground side, through the wiring pattern portion 23c.

[0022] The capacitors C1 and C2 each have a capacitance in the range of 470pF to 3300pF, and preferably 1000pF. In this embodiment, since two capacitors are connected in series, the combined capacitance of the capacitors C1 and C2 has a capacitance in the range of 235pF to 1650pF, and preferably 500pF. The impedance according to this capacitance reduces noise (including common mode noise) at frequencies between 9kHz and 30MHz, which is lower than the frequency of noise reduced by the ferrite beads L1 and L2. This is obtained from an experiment showing that when the capacitors C1 and C2 have a capacitance in the range of 470pF to 3300pF, noise at frequencies between 9kHz and 30MHz can be reduced.

[0023] In the embodiment, two capacitors are used, but the present invention is not limited to this and one capacitor may be used. In the case of one capacitor, the capacitor has a capacitance in the range of 235 pF to 1650 pF, and it is particularly preferable that the capacitance is 500 pF.

[0024] Furthermore, the connector 22 is mounted across the first wiring pattern 23a and the second wiring pattern 23b of the module substrate 20 and is electrically connected thereto.

[0025] Furthermore, the lighting circuit 12 receives AC power, which is external power supplied from an AC power source E, which is an external power source, converts it into lighting power of a predetermined DC voltage that lights up the light-emitting element 21, and supplies it to the light-emitting module 11. The lighting circuit 12 includes a switching element such as a MOS-FET, and power conversion is performed by the switching operation of this switching element.

[0026] The lighting circuit 12 has a circuit board 30 on which a plurality of circuit elements are mounted. One end of an output wiring 31 is connected to an output side of the lighting power of the circuit board 30, and a connector 32 provided on the other end of the output wiring 31 is electrically connected to the connector 22 of the light-emitting module 11.

[0027] In the case of a lamp device, the lighting circuit 12 is housed in a housing, the input side of the lighting circuit 12 is electrically connected to the base, the output wiring 31 of the lighting circuit 12 is pulled out to the mounting surface side of the module board 20 of the light-emitting module 11, and the connector 32 of the output wiring 31 is electrically connected to the connector 22 of the light-emitting module 11.

[0028] Furthermore, when the lighting device 10 is a lamp device, it is attached to a socket of a lighting fixture, and AC power is supplied from an AC power source E to the lighting circuit 12 from the socket through a base.

[0029] When the AC power source E is turned on, the lighting device 10 converts the AC power into lighting power of a predetermined DC voltage by the lighting circuit 12 and supplies it to the light-emitting module 11. The lighting power supplied to the light-emitting module 11 is supplied from the connector 22 through the ferrite beads L1 and L2 to the light-emitting element 21, causing the light-emitting element 21 to light up.

[0030] The ferrite beads L1 and L2 of the light-emitting module 11 reduce the conductive noise in the high frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 GHz superimposed on the lighting power supplied from the lighting circuit 12 to the light-emitting module 11 due to their inductance characteristics, and this reduction in conductive noise reduces the radiation noise of 30 MHz to 1 GHz radiated from the wiring pattern 23 as an antenna. Therefore, it becomes possible to meet the standard for radiation noise of 30 MHz to 1 GHz established in Appendix 10 of the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Act, which complies with CISPR (Comite International Special des Perturbations Radioelectriques) 15.

[0031] Furthermore, the capacitors C1 and C2 of the light-emitting module 11 reduce noise including common mode noise at frequencies of 9 kHz to 30 MHz, which is lower than the frequency of noise reduced by the ferrite beads L1 and L2, due to their inductance characteristics. Therefore, the influence on flickering of the light-emitting element 21 can be suppressed.

[0032] As described above, the light-emitting module 11 of this embodiment is equipped with ferrite beads L1, L2 connected in series to the light-emitting element 21, thereby reducing the conducted noise superimposed on the lighting power supplied from the lighting circuit 12 to the light-emitting module 11, and thereby reducing the radiated noise emitted from the light-emitting module 11.

[0033] Therefore, even in cases where the size of the lighting circuit 12 housed in the housing is limited, such as in a lamp device, and sufficient noise countermeasures cannot be implemented in the lighting circuit 12, the light-emitting module 11 can provide noise countermeasures.

[0034] The ferrite beads L1 and L2 have an impedance peak within a frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 GHz, and therefore can effectively reduce radiation noise in the range of 30 MHz to 1 GHz radiated from the light-emitting module 11.

[0035] More preferably, the ferrite beads L1, L2 have an impedance peak within a frequency range of 30 MHz to 100 MHz or have an impedance peak near a frequency of 100 MHz, and the impedance at a frequency of 30 MHz to 100 MHz is 200 Ω or more, thereby effectively reducing radiation noise in the range of 30 MHz to 100 MHz that is likely to be radiated from the light-emitting module 11.

[0036] Furthermore, since the ferrite beads L1 and L2 are connected in series to both the anode side and the cathode side of the light emitting element 21, respectively, the effect of reducing radiation noise from the light emitting module 11 can be enhanced.

[0037] Furthermore, the light emitting module 11 includes the capacitors C1 and C2 connected in series between the light emitting element 21 and the ground side, and therefore noise can be reduced due to the impedance characteristics of the capacitors C1 and C2.

[0038] Furthermore, capacitors C1 and C2 each have a capacitance in the range of 470pF to 3300pF, resulting in a combined capacitance of 235pF to 1650pF. The impedance according to this capacitance can effectively reduce noise at frequencies from 9kHz to 30MHz, which is lower than the noise frequencies reduced by ferrite beads L1 and L2.

[0039] Therefore, by providing the light emitting module 11 with the ferrite beads L1, L2 and the capacitors C1, C2, noise over a wide range of frequencies can be reduced, and noise countermeasures can be implemented reliably.

[0040] In addition, the ferrite beads L1, L2 are connected at a position closer to the connector 22 than the light-emitting element 21. In other words, the length of each wiring pattern 23a, 23b between the ferrite beads L1, L2 and the connector 22 is shorter than the length of each wiring pattern 23a, 23b between the ferrite beads L1, L2 and the light-emitting element 21. This reduces the radiation noise emitted using the wiring pattern 23 as an antenna.

[0041] The light-emitting module 11 may include only one of the ferrite beads L1 and L2. Even in the case where only one of the ferrite beads is included, the radiation noise emitted from the light-emitting module 11 can be reduced.

[0042] Furthermore, in the light-emitting module 11, a plurality of ferrite beads having a small capacitance may be connected to the first wiring pattern 23a or the like.

[0043] Alternatively, one end of the capacitors C1 and C2 may be connected between the connector 22 and the ferrite bead L2, and may be connected in series to the cathode side of the light-emitting element 21 via the ferrite bead L2. Alternatively, one end of the capacitors C1 and C2 may be connected in series to the anode side of the light-emitting element 21. In either case, noise can be reduced.

[0044] Furthermore, the light emitting module 11 is not limited to a lamp device, but can be applied to various lighting devices such as lighting fixtures installed on ceilings or walls, or street lights and security lights.

[0045] Although some embodiments of the present invention have been described, these embodiments are presented as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These novel embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, substitutions, and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. These embodiments and their modifications are included in the scope and spirit of the invention, and are included in the scope of the invention and its equivalents described in the claims.
