The LED illumination light source 100 includes an LED chip 10, a phosphor resin part 12 that covers the LED chip 10, and a translucent member 20 that covers the phosphor resin part 12. The phosphor resin part 12 is composed of a phosphor that converts light emitted from the LED chip 10 into light having a wavelength longer than the wavelength of the light, and a resin that disperses the phosphor. The surface of the translucent member 20 includes an upper surface region 22 positioned above the LED chip 10 and a side surface region 24 positioned below the periphery of the upper surface region 22. At least a part (low transmittance part) 26 of 24 has a transmittance lower than the transmittance of the upper surface region 22.
The present invention relates to an LED illumination light source, and more particularly to an LED illumination light source that can be suitably used as a white light source for general illumination.
A light-emitting diode element (hereinafter referred to as an “LED element”) is a semiconductor element that is small, efficient, and emits brightly colored light, and has an excellent monochromatic peak. When white light is emitted using an LED element, for example, a red LED element, a green LED element, and a blue LED element are arranged so as to be close to each other, and diffusion color mixing may be performed. However, since each LED element has an excellent monochromatic peak, there is a problem that color unevenness is likely to occur. That is, if the light emission from each LED element becomes non-uniform and the color mixing is not successful, white light emission with uneven color occurs. In order to solve the problem of such color unevenness, a technique for obtaining white light emission by combining a blue LED element and a yellow phosphor has been developed (for example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2).
The bullet-type LED illumination light source disclosed in Patent Document 2 has a configuration as shown in FIG. That is, the bullet-type LED illumination light source 200 shown in FIG. 1 includes an LED element 121, a bullet-shaped transparent container 127 that covers the LED element 121, and lead frames 122 a and 122 b for supplying current to the LED element 121. A cup-shaped reflector 123 that reflects light emitted from the LED element 121 in the direction of arrow D is provided on the mount portion of the frame 122b on which the LED element 121 is mounted. The LED element 121 is sealed with a first resin portion 124 in which a fluorescent material 126 is dispersed, and the first resin portion 124 is covered with a second resin portion 125. When blue light is emitted from the LED element 121 and the fluorescent material 126 emits yellow light by the light, both colors are mixed to obtain white.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following drawings, components having substantially the same function are denoted by the same reference numerals for the sake of brevity.
First, a first embodiment of an LED illumination light source according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing the configuration of the LED illumination light source 100 according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view thereof.
The LED illumination light source 100 includes an LED chip 10, a phosphor resin part 12 that covers the LED chip 10, and a translucent member 20 that covers the phosphor resin part 12.
The phosphor resin portion 12 is composed of a phosphor that converts light emitted from the LED chip 10 into light having a wavelength longer than the wavelength of the light, and a resin that disperses the phosphor.
The translucent member 20 plays a role of blocking (sealing) the phosphor resin portion 12 from the atmosphere, and is formed by molding a material such as resin or glass, for example. The translucent member 20 of this embodiment is formed from an epoxy resin. The translucent member 20 of the present embodiment has a function of a lens that collects light emitted from the LED chip 10 in addition to the function of sealing the phosphor resin portion 12 and blocking it from the atmosphere.
The surface of the translucent member 20 includes an upper surface region 22 located above the LED chip 10 and a side surface region 24 located below the upper surface region 22. At least a part of the side surface region 24 in the translucent member 20 functions as a portion (low transmittance portion 26) having a transmittance lower than the transmittance of the upper surface region 22. Due to the presence of such a low transmittance portion 26, the intensity of light transmitted through the side surface region 24 of the translucent member 20 is reduced as compared with the intensity of light transmitted through the upper surface region 22.
When the LED illumination light source 100 is used as a downlight, the light emitted from the upper surface region 22 of the translucent member 20 exclusively illuminates a lower object (illuminated object). On the other hand, the light emitted from the side surface region 24 of the translucent member 20 easily enters the eyes of surrounding people. Such light emitted from the side region 24 tends to cause unpleasant glare, but the LED illumination light source 100 reduces the light intensity from the side region 24 that greatly affects the generation of the unpleasant glare. .
In a preferred embodiment, the translucent member 20 is formed so as to include a portion having a substantially hemispherical shape or a bullet shape. In the illustrated embodiment, the entire optical member 20 has a substantially hemispherical shape.
The low transmittance part 26 of the translucent member 20 extends in a band shape so as to go around the side surface region 24. In this example, the area of the low transmittance portion 26 occupies 30% or more of the area of the side region 24. Almost all or all of the side surface region 24 may function as the low transmittance portion 26. In the present embodiment, the upper end of the low transmittance part 26 and the upper surface region 22 are in contact with each other, but a part of the side surface region 24 may exist between the upper end of the low transmittance part 26 and the upper surface region 22. .
The low transmittance part 26 is formed, for example, by subjecting the side surface region 24 of the translucent member 20 to surface treatment. The surface treatment may be sandblasting, vapor deposition of a predetermined material, embossing, chemical polishing, or the like. By such surface treatment, the transmittance of the low transmittance portion 26 can be reduced more than the transmittance of the upper surface region 22. The transmittance of the low transmittance portion 26 can be set to, for example, 10% or less of the transmittance of the upper surface region 22. The transmittance of the low transmittance part 26 can be set to an arbitrary value so that the amount (luminance, light flux, etc.) relating to the light transmitted through the low transmittance part 26 is smaller than a predetermined value.
The formation of the low transmittance part 26 can also be performed by a method other than the surface treatment for the translucent member 20. For example, by applying a dispersing material (for example, silica, MgO, etc.) to the translucent member 20 and changing the concentration of the dispersing material depending on the part, the low transmittance part 26 having a lower transmittance than the upper surface region 22 is formed. Is possible. It is also possible to form the low transmittance part 26 from a mask layer (light-shielding part) and make the light transmittance of the low transmittance part 26 substantially zero.
The LED chip 10 of the present embodiment is a bare chip LED and is disposed on the substrate 30. The phosphor resin part 12 covering the LED chip 10 and the translucent member 20 covering the phosphor resin part 12 are also arranged on the substrate 30. In the present embodiment, the electrodes on the LED chip 10 are in contact with terminals (not shown) formed on the surface of the substrate 30 by flip chip mounting, and the chip back surface of the LED chip 10 is covered by the phosphor resin portion 12. It has been broken.
The LED chip 10 is an LED element that emits light having a peak wavelength within a visible range of wavelengths from 380 nm to 780 nm. The phosphor dispersed in the phosphor resin part 12 emits light having a peak wavelength different from the peak wavelength of the LED chip 10 within a visible range of wavelengths from 380 n to 780 nm.
The LED chip 10 of the present embodiment is a blue LED element that emits blue light. The phosphor contained in the phosphor resin portion 12 is a yellow phosphor that converts blue light into yellow light. The blue light emitted from the LED chip 10 and the yellow light emitted from the phosphor are mixed to form white illumination light.
The LED chip 10 is typically an LED chip made of a gallium nitride (GaN) -based material, and emits light having a wavelength of 460 nm, for example. When an LED chip that emits blue light is used as the LED chip 10, the phosphor is (Y · Sm) 3 (Al · Ga) 5 O 12 : Ce, (Y 0.39 Gd 0.57 Ce 0.03 Sm 0 .01) 3 Al 5 O 12, etc. can be suitably used.
The phosphor resin portion 12 in the present embodiment has a substantially cylindrical shape (see FIG. 3). When the planar dimension of the LED chip 10 is, for example, about 0.3 mm × about 0.3 mm, the diameter of the phosphor resin portion 12 can be set to about 0.7 mm to about 0.9 mm, for example. In that case, the size of the translucent member 20 can be set to a height of 1 to 15 mm and a diameter of 2 to 7 mm, for example.
In the present embodiment, a reflecting plate having a reflecting surface that reflects the light emitted from the LED chip 10 is provided around the translucent member 20, but in FIG. 2 and FIG. It is omitted.
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a configuration example of the reflecting plate 40 having the reflecting surface 42. In the illustrated example, a reflecting plate 40 having a reflecting surface 42 is disposed on the substrate 30. The reflection plate 40 is formed with an opening 44 that houses the phosphor resin portion 12 that covers the LED chip 10. A side surface that defines the opening 44 functions as a reflection surface 42 that reflects light emitted from the LED chip 10. The reflection plate 40 is formed from a metal such as aluminum, copper, stainless steel, iron, or an alloy thereof, but may be formed from a resin.
The translucent member 20 is provided in the opening 44 of the reflection plate 40 so as to cover the phosphor resin portion 12. Such a translucent member 20 is suitably formed by, for example, a resin mold. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the portion of the translucent member 20 located above the upper surface of the reflector 40 has a substantially hemispherical shape. The substantially hemispherical portion includes an upper surface region 22 and a side surface region 24, and a low transmittance portion 26 is formed in at least a part of the side surface region 24. In the example shown in FIG. 4, a part of the translucent member 20 extends thinly in the lateral direction along the upper surface of the reflecting plate 40. The portion of the translucent member 20 that fills the inside of the opening 44 of the reflecting plate 40 is in contact with the surface of the phosphor resin portion 12 and the reflecting surface 42.
The substrate 30 in this embodiment includes a base substrate 32 and a wiring layer 34 formed on the base substrate 32. The base substrate 32 is, for example, a metal substrate, and the wiring layer 34 includes a wiring pattern 36 formed on a composite layer made of an inorganic filler and a resin. The reason why the metal substrate is used for the base substrate 32 and the composite layer is used for the wiring layer 34 is to improve the heat dissipation from the LED chip 10. In this example, the wiring layer 34 is a multilayer wiring board, and the LED chip 10 is flip-chip mounted on the uppermost wiring pattern 36.
As shown in FIG. 4, in the present embodiment, the side surface of the phosphor resin portion 12 and the reflecting surface 42 of the reflecting plate 40 are separated from each other. By such separation, the shape of the phosphor resin portion 12 can be freely designed without being constrained by the shape of the reflecting surface 42 of the reflecting plate 40, and as a result, an effect of reducing color unevenness can be obtained. Can do. The LED illumination light source in which the side surface of the phosphor resin portion 12 and the reflection surface 42 of the reflection plate 40 are separated is disclosed in US Patent Application Publication No. US2004 / 0100192A1, and is incorporated herein in its entirety.
The phosphor resin portion 12 has a “substantially cylindrical shape”, but the “substantially cylindrical shape” in this specification is not limited to a structure in which a cross section parallel to the main surface of the substrate is a perfect circle, and the cross section is 6 Includes structures that are polygons with more than one vertex. If the vertex is a polygon of 6 or more, it can be identified with the “cylinder” because it is substantially axially symmetric.
When the LED chip 10 is mounted on the substrate 30 by ultrasonic flip chip mounting, the LED chip 10 may rotate in a plane parallel to the main surface of the substrate due to ultrasonic vibration. In such a case, if the phosphor resin portion 12 has a triangular prism shape or a quadrangular prism shape, the light distribution characteristics are easily affected by the arrangement relationship between the LED chip 10 and the fluorescent resin portion 12. However, if the fluorescent resin portion 12 has a substantially cylindrical shape, the mutual arrangement relationship between the fluorescent resin portion 12 and the LED chip 12 even if the image is rotated in a plane parallel to the orientation substrate main surface of the LED chip 12. No significant change occurs in the orientation, and the orientation characteristics are hardly affected.
3 to 4 each show a single LED chip 12, the LED illumination light source 100 may include a plurality of LED chips 10. Specifically, the structure shown in FIG. 4 may be arranged as one unit and arranged two-dimensionally (for example, in rows and columns).
FIG. 5 shows an example of a card-type LED illumination light source 100 including a plurality of LED chips (LED group or LED cluster) arranged two-dimensionally. The substrate 30 is provided with a plurality of translucent members 20 each covering each LED chip (not shown). Since the low transmittance part 26 is formed in the side region 24 in the substantially hemispherical part of the translucent member 20, the card-type LED illumination light source 100 has a glare suppressing function. In this example, the low transmittance portion 26 is formed in the side region 24 of the corresponding translucent member 20 for all the LED chips arranged on the substrate. However, the present invention is limited to such a case. Not. The glare suppressing effect can be obtained by providing the low transmittance portion 26 at least in the side surface region 24 of the translucent member located at the outermost peripheral portion of the LED group.
On the surface of the card-type LED illumination light source 100, a power supply terminal 38 that is electrically connected to the wiring pattern 36 and supplies power to the LED chip 10 is provided. When the card-type LED illumination light source 100 is used, a connector (not shown) to which the LED illumination light source 100 can be removably inserted and a lighting circuit (not shown) are electrically connected, and the guard-type LED illumination is connected to the connector. The light source 100 may be inserted and used.
Consider a case where an LED illumination light source 100 as shown in FIG. In this case, the brightness of the LED illumination light source 100 is preferably 24000 cd / m 2 or less around an angle of 65 degrees with reference to the vertical direction (normal direction of the substrate 30) suspended from the center of the LED illumination light source 100. Is preferably formed on the translucent member 20 such that the low transmittance portion 26 is 5300 cd / m 2 or less (more preferably 2400 cd / m 2 or less). By setting it to 24000 cd / m 2 or less, the condition of G2 in the G classification can be satisfied. By satisfying 5300 cd / m 2 or less and 2400 cd / m 2 or less, the conditions of G1 and G0 in the G classification can be satisfied, respectively.
The G classification is based on the luminance regulation method in the evaluation method for unpleasant glare in indoor lighting, and is a simplified glare classification in accordance with the CIE glare safeguard system and taking into account Japan's experience. G0 and G1 are luminaires whose glare is sufficiently limited by louvers, prism panels, etc., and G2 is such that the lamp cannot be seen when the luminaire is viewed from the horizontal direction, such as a bottom open type luminaire. Lighting equipment with reduced glare. Note that G3 is a lighting fixture in which the lamp is exposed and the glare is not limited.
As shown in FIG. 6, in the configuration in which the translucent member 20 is provided in the opening 44 of the reflecting plate 40, a portion of the translucent member 20 that protrudes upward from the upper surface of the reflecting plate 40 (substantially hemispherical portion). The low transmittance part 26 can be formed in substantially all or all of the side surface region 24 in FIG.
FIG. 7 shows an example in which the low-transmittance portion 26 is formed also in a portion of the translucent member 20 that extends along the upper surface of the reflecting plate 40. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to suppress light in an oblique direction leaking from above the reflecting plate 40.
FIG. 8 shows an example in which a prism panel that functions as the low transmittance part 26 is provided.
Since the prism panel causes light scattering, it has a sparkling effect. Thereby, the brightness improvement effect is born.
It is also effective to determine the formation position of the low transmittance part 26 in consideration of the radiation angle at which the observer (user) can easily feel glare. In general, when the observer is away from the illumination light source, glare is unlikely to occur because the luminance is weak. However, when the observer is directly under the illumination light source, the brightness is high, but if the observer does not point his face at the ceiling, the direct light is less likely to enter the observer's eyes. Therefore, by suppressing light emitted at an angle within a predetermined range, it becomes possible to effectively suppress glare without significantly reducing the amount of light.
FIG. 9 shows the radiation angle θ in the LED illumination light source 100 of the present embodiment. The direction in which the arrow 50 in the drawing extends is the direction that becomes the optical axis passing through the LED chip 10, and the radiation angle θ is an angle of 0 °. In addition, the arrow 50 is a direction which shows directly under the LED illumination light source 100, when irradiating the LED illumination light source 100 from the top to right below.
Next, with reference to FIG. 10, a case will be described in which the LED illumination light source is irradiated from directly below the top surface, and the observer observes the work surface and works.
When the observer works on the work table, it is assumed that the height h1 from the observer's eye 52 to the desk surface 51 is 30 cm, and the work surface 54 is observed at an angle of 45 ° from the vertical plane. Assuming that the form of the LED illumination light source is a table lamp, the height h2 from the desk top surface 51 is about 50 cm, and the radiation angle θ of the LED illumination light source reaching the observer's eye 52 is 56 °. On the other hand, the viewing angle of the observer's eye 52 on the upper surface side of the eyeball is a maximum of 100 ° from the viewpoint center. At that time, the height h4 at which the LED illumination light source can be recognized while working is 72 cm from the desk surface 51, and the radiation angle θ is 35 °. In other words, during the work, glare is not particularly required for an illumination light source of 72 cm or more from the desk surface 51.
Therefore, in discussing glare mitigation for a working observer, it is important to consider LED illumination sources that are 50 cm to 72 cm high from the desk surface 51. In that case, the radiation angle θ of the LED illumination light source entering the observer's field of view is 35 ° to 56 °. This can also be described as 45 ° ± 10 °. Note that the height h3 from the desk surface 51 corresponding to the radiation angle θ of 45 ° is 60 cm. In consideration of the vertical movement of the observer's eyeball and the vertical movement of the neck during the work, the intensity of the radiation angle θ of 45 ° ± 15 ° is regulated without affecting the irradiation intensity on the work surface 54. The glare from the LED illumination light source to the observer can be reduced.
From the above, in order to realize the LED illumination light source 100 that can further suppress the glare, the low transmittance part 26 is formed with a radiation angle θ around 45 ° (for example, θ = 45 ° ± 15 °). It is preferable. When the glare is positively suppressed, as shown in FIG. 11, a mask (light-shielding portion) having a transmittance of 0% is provided on the side region 24 having a radiation angle θ of about 45 ° as shown in FIG. It is also preferable to form as.
