Patent GB-2518528-A (GB)
Title: LED lighting device
Inventor: CHEN KAI
IPC: F21V29/70
Filed: 2013-03-15
Abstract: An LED lighting device comprises a lamp housing (1) and at least one LED module (2). The lamp housing (1) comprises a lamp cover (11) and a housing-type heat-dissipating lamp bracket (12). The housing-type heat-dissipating lamp bracket (12) directly emits the heat produced by the LED module (2) and is made entirely of heat-dissipating material. A plurality of heat-dissipating aperture devices (24) is arranged on the head (44) and/or tail (46) of the housing-type heat-dissipating lamp bracket (12). The gap between the heat-dissipating aperture devices (24) and the LED module (2) creates a mutually-reinforcing thermal honeycomb effect, thereby forming, when matched with ventilation holes (19) of the lamp cover (11), a heat dissipation channel with unhindered convection of air. In street lamps, the arrangement of the gap between the heat dissipation holes and the module enables heat to be discharged more easily from the lamp housing, thus enabling the whole lamp to better dissipate heat.

Title: Image acquisition device, and imaging device
Inventor: TODA EIJI
IPC: H04N5/341
Filed: 2014-01-22
Abstract: The invention relates to an imaging apparatus, 19, that may be used in an image acquisition system, 1, (such as a scanning microscope) that scans an object, S, with an illumination light, 3. The imaging apparatus comprises a light receiving section, 19a, (such as a CMOS image sensor array) made up of a plurality of pixel rows (Figure 3, 19d), in which signal readout from the pixel rows is accomplished using a rolling (or continuous) readout method. An image control section, 19b, controls signal readout of the light receiving section based on a driving clock. This is achieved by counting the number of driving clock pulses defining a period of signal readout in each of the pixel rows and then variably adjusting the number of driving clock pulses to control the signal readout period. The image control section may further control the count of the driving clock to vary the period of signal readout so that the rolling readout of the light receiving section is synchronised with the scanning by the illumination light.
