Lamp assembly
A lamp assembly ( 1 ) comprises at least a light source ( 8 ) and a reflector for reflecting light from the light source ( 8 ). The reflector is positionable with respect to the light source ( 8 ) in at least a first position and a second position to obtain a spot-like light emission in the first position and a more or less omnidirectional light emission, in the second position, of the light emitted by the lamp assembly ( 1 ). The lamp assembly ( 1 ) comprises a reflective layer ( 7 ). In the first position of the reflector at least part of the light is reflected by the reflector as well as by the reflective layer ( 7 ). In the second position of the reflector at least part of the light is reflected by the reflector and passes along the reflective layer ( 7 ).
1. Lamp assembly comprising a light source and a reflector for reflecting light from the light source, wherein the reflector is positionable with respect to the light source in at least a first position and a second position to obtain light emission substantially in a half-sphere at the most in the first position and a substantially omnidirectional light emission in the second position of the light emitted by the lamp assembly.
2. Lamp assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the lamp assembly comprises a reflective layer, wherein in the first position of the reflector at least part of the light is reflected by the reflector as well as by the reflective layer , whereas in the second position of the reflector at least part of the light is reflected by the reflector and passes along the reflective layer.
3. Lamp assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the light source is located near a central axis of the light assembly, which light assembly further comprises a base element provided with a number of openings positioned around the central axis, wherein the reflector comprises a number of reflector segments positioned around the central axis , which reflector is located at a distance from the base element , wherein in the first position of the reflector with respect to the base element light from the light source and reflected by the reflector segments is directed onto the base element whilst in the second position of the reflector with respect to the base element light from the light source and reflected by the reflector segments is directed through the openings in the base element.
4. Lamp assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the base element comprises the reflective layer, wherein in the first position of the reflector with respect to the base element light directed onto the base element is reflected by the base element.
5. Lamp assembly according to claim 3 , wherein the reflector is rotatable about the central axis with respect to the base element at least from the first position to the second position and vice versa.
6. Lamp assembly according to claim 5 , wherein in each position the reflector is lockable with respect to the base element.
7. Lamp assembly according to claim 2 , wherein in the second position of the reflector, the reflector segments of the reflector are aligned with the openings in the base element.
8. Lamp assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the reflector is mounted in a transparent envelope.
9. Lamp assembly according to claim 3 , wherein the transparent envelope is mounted onto the base element by means of retention springs.
10. Lamp assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the reflector is mounted on a transparent plate extending parallel to the reflective layer.
11. Lamp assembly according to claim 3 , wherein the light source is mounted on the base element.
12. Lamp assembly according to claim 3 , wherein the base element is a heat sink.
