Lighting fixture
View Patent ↗A lighting fixture includes a light-emitting section composed of a plurality of semiconductor light-emitting devices arranged separated from one another on a planar substrate and a lighting control section configured to control lighting of the semiconductor light-emitting devices of the light-emitting section. The light-emitting section is attached at a front of a fixture main body, and a convection generation section configured to generate convection is provided at a back of the fixture main body. The convection generation section generates convection and promotes heat radiation. With the configuration, even if the lighting fixture is installed to abut on a ceiling surface, the effect of radiating heat generated by the semiconductor light-emitting devices can be ensured.
1. A lighting fixture comprising:
a light-emitting section composed of a plurality of semiconductor light-emitting devices arranged separated from one another on a planar substrate;
a lighting control section configured to control lighting of the semiconductor light-emitting devices of the light-emitting section;
a fixture main body in which the light-emitting section is attached at a front; and
a convection generation section configured to generate convection at a back of the fixture main body, wherein
the convection generation section is composed of a plurality of fins provided at the back of the fixture main body; and
the plurality of fins is configured such that fin heights of the fins increase toward the light-emitting section, wherein the lighting fixture further comprises
an attachment provided at a distal end of a one of the fins which has a largest height and is configured to attach the fixture main body to a ceiling surface, wherein
the convection generation section generates an airflow by means of a thermal gradient caused by a difference in height between the plurality of fins in a space between the back and the ceiling surface.
2. The lighting fixture comprising:
a light-emitting section composed of a plurality of semiconductor light-emitting devices arranged separated from one another on a planar substrate;
a lighting control section configured to control lighting of the semiconductor light-emitting devices of the light-emitting section;
a fixture main body in which the light-emitting section is attached at a front; and
a convection generation section configured to generate convection at a back of the fixture main body, wherein
the convection generation section is composed of a plurality of fins provided at the back of the fixture main body, and
the plurality of fins is configured such that fin heights of the fins increase from side edges of the fixture main body toward a center, the lighting apparatus further comprising:
an attachment provided at a distal end of a one of the fins which has a largest height and is configured to attach the fixture main body to a ceiling surface; wherein
the convection generation section generates an airflow by means of a thermal gradient caused by a difference in height between the plurality of fins in a space between the back and the ceiling surface.
3. The lighting fixture according to claim 2 , wherein
the light-emitting section is arranged at the center of the fixture main body.
4. The lighting fixture according to claim 2 , wherein
the lighting control section is provided at the center at the back of the fixture main body.
5. The lighting fixture according to claim 4 , wherein
the plurality of fins is configured such that the fin heights are symmetric about the lighting control section between the center and the side edges.
6. A lighting fixture, comprising:
a light-emitting section composed of a plurality of semiconductor light-emitting devices arranged separated from one another on a planar substrate;
a lighting control section configured to control lighting of the semiconductor light-emitting devices of the light-emitting section;
a fixture main body in which the light-emitting section is attached at a front;
a convection generation section configured to generate convection at a back of the fixture main body, the convection generation section including a plurality of fins; and
a corrugated radiator plate arranged to be in contact with a side surface of at least one of the plurality of fins.
