Abstract

A stage light fixture is provided with: a plurality of light sources configured to emit respective light beams along respective optical axes; a plurality of optical elements, each of which is configured to modify the direction of the rays defining the light beam of a respective light source; the optical elements being shaped and arranged one next to the other so as to define a total emission area of the light beams having an emission outline; the plurality of optical elements comprising at least two optical elements having different shape one with respect to the other.

Claims (30)

1. A stage light fixture comprising:

a plurality of light sources configured to emit respective light beams along respective optical axes;

a plurality of lenses, each of which is configured to modify the direction of the rays of the light beam of a respective light source;

each lens being provided with an inlet face, which faces towards the respective light source, and with an emission face, opposite to the inlet face and characterized by its own emission area capable of emitting light rays;

the lenses being shaped and arranged one next to the other so as to define a total emission area of the light beams having an emission outline; the plurality of lenses comprises at least two lenses having respective emission faces having different shape one from the other;

wherein the plurality of lenses comprises at least a first assembly of lenses arranged one next to the other along a first path and a second assembly of lenses arranged one next to the other along a second path; wherein the first path is circular and the second path is circular, concentric to the first path, and arranged inside the first path; at least one lens of the first assembly having an emission face having a shape different from the emission face of at least one lens of the second assembly; wherein the lenses of the plurality of lenses have a polygonal-shaped emission face; and

a plurality of mixer devices disposed between the plurality of light sources and the plurality of lenses, each mixer device being axially aligned relative to one respective light source and one respective lens along one respective optical axis of the respective light beam and each mixer device configured to act on the respective light beam prior to the respective light beam contacting the respective lens.

2. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of lenses comprises a perimeter assembly of optical elements arranged one next to the other to define the emission outline of the total emission area.

3. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the lenses of the perimeter assembly are shaped so as to define an emission outline of the total emission area proximate to a circumference.

4. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the lenses of the perimeter assembly are shaped so as to define an emission outline of the total emission area which is polygonal and inscribed in a circumference.

5. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the lenses of the perimeter assembly are provided with at least one curved side so as to define a circular emission outline of the total emission area.

6. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the light sources are uniformly arranged inside the emission outline.

7. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , comprising a casing having a first closed end and a second end provided with a projection opening, which defines a projection area; the plurality of light sources being arranged inside the casing.

8. The stage light fixture according to claim 7 , wherein the total emission area of the light beams is greater or equal to the 80% of the projection area.

9. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein at least one light source of the plurality of light sources and the respective lens of the plurality of lenses are movable one with respect to the other along a direction transversal to the optical axis of the light source.

10. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein at least one light source of the plurality of light sources and the respective lens of the plurality of lenses are movable one with respect to the other along a direction parallel to the optical axis of the light source.

11. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of light sources and the plurality of lenses rotate one with respect to the other on parallel planes.

12. The stage light fixture according to claim 7 , wherein the total emission area of the light beams is greater or equal to 85% of the projection area.

13. The stage light fixture according to claim 7 , wherein the total emission area of the light beams is greater or equal to 95% of the projection area.

14. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein each mixer device is configured to collect the light beam emitted by the respective light source and mix the light beam to generate a mixed and concentrated light beam that is delivered to the respective lens.

15. The stage light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the mixer device has an elongated prismatic shape that extends along the respective optical axis of the light beam of the light source to which the mixer device is coupled.

16. A stage light fixture comprising:

a plurality of light sources configured to emit respective light beams along respective optical axes;

a plurality of lenses, each of which is configured to modify the direction of the rays of the light beam of a respective light source;

each lens being provided with an inlet face, which faces towards the respective light source, and with an emission face, opposite to the inlet face and characterized by its own emission area capable of emitting light rays;

the lenses being shaped and arranged one next to the other so as to define a total emission area of the light beams having an emission outline; the plurality of lenses comprises at least two lenses having respective emission faces having different shape one from the other;

wherein the plurality of lenses comprises at least a first assembly of lenses arranged one next to the other along a first path and a second assembly of lenses arranged one next to the other along a second path; at least one lens of the first assembly having an emission face having a shape different from the emission face of at least one lens of the second assembly; and

a plurality of mixer devices disposed between the plurality of light sources and the plurality of lenses, each mixer device being axially aligned relative to one respective light source and one respective lens along one respective optical axis of the respective light beam and each mixer device configured to modify the respective light beam prior to the respective light beam contacting the respective lens.

17. The stage light fixture according to claim 16 , wherein each mixer device is configured to collect the light beam emitted by the respective light source and mix the light beam to generate a mixed and concentrated light beam that is delivered to the respective lens.

18. The stage light fixture according to claim 16 , wherein the mixer device has an elongated prismatic shape that extends along the respective optical axis of the light beam of the light source to which the mixer device is coupled.
