Illumination device

1. An illumination device comprising:

a first light source arranged inside a housing and generating illumination light;

a diffusing panel diffusing the illumination light from the first light source; and

a projector having a second light source, display element and projection optical system arranged inside a space formed by the housing and a part of the diffusing panel and projecting an image onto a projection surface,

wherein an incident direction of a light flux incident from the display element and projected with the projection optical system of the projector is a direction substantially parallel to a horizontal plane or a direction closer to a direction parallel to the horizontal plane than a vertical direction, or

wherein an optical axis of the projection optical system on which the light flux from the display element is incident is substantially parallel to the horizontal plane or closer to a direction parallel to the horizontal plane than the vertical direction.

2. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the projector projects the image onto the horizontal plane as an image projection surface, and

an image projection region of the projector on the horizontal plane and an illumination range on the horizontal plane of the illumination light obtained by diffusing the light generated by the first light source are at least partially overlapped.

3. The illumination device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

an aperture or a transmissive window through which projection image light from the projector is emitted from the inside of the space formed by the housing and a part of the diffusing panel,

wherein, an emission position of image projection light from the projector is arranged between the light source and the aperture or the transmissive window.

4. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the projector includes a reflection optical element for changing the optical axis of the projection optical system.

5. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the illumination device is a pendant-type illumination device.

6. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the illumination device is a ceiling-type illumination device.

7. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the projector is arranged so as to be located at a center portion of illumination light flux from the first light source of the illumination device.

8. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the projector is arranged so as to be located at an end portion of illumination light flux from the first light source of the illumination device.

9. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the projector is arranged so as to be located between a center portion and an end portion of illumination light flux from the first light source of the illumination device.

10. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first light source includes a light-emitting element arranged and attached on a lower surface of a board attached to a part of the housing.

11. The illumination device according to claim 10 ,

wherein the board includes a side surface extending further from an end portion of the board in a perpendicular direction, and

wherein another light-emitting element is provided on an outer side of the side surface.

12. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first light source includes light-emitting elements each arranged and attached on a lower surface and an upper surface of a board attached to a part of the housing.

13. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the diffusing panel is used as the first light source that generates the illumination light.

14. The illumination device according to claim 13 ,

wherein the first light source that generates the illumination light is configured of electroluminescence (EL).

15. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the light source that generates the illumination light is configured of light-emitting elements (LEDs).
