Illumination apparatus
The illumination apparatus includes a housing holding an optical member, a light emitter housed in the housing and including a light source configured to emit illumination light projected frontward through the optical member, an emission control substrate disposed behind the light emitter and on which electronic components for controlling emission of the light source are mounted, and a heat radiating member configured to cause heat transmitted from the light source to an outer face of the light emitter to radiate. The heat radiating member includes a lower face portion, a side face portion and a rear face portion disposed so as to respectively face a lower face and a side face of the light emitter and the emission control substrate.
1. An illumination apparatus comprising:
a housing holding n optical member;
a light emitter housed in the housing and including a light source configured to emit illumination light projected frontward through the optical member;
an emission control substrate disposed behind the light emitter and on which a choke coil for controlling emission of the light source is mounted; and
a heat radiating member configured to be formed of a metal and to be housed in the housing and to cause heat transmitted from the light source to an outer face of the light emitter to radiate,
wherein the heat radiating member includes a lower face portion, a side face portion and a rear face portion disposed so as to respectively face a lower face and a side face of the light emitter and the emission control substrate,
wherein the rear face portion of the heat radiating member has a shape not covering at least part of the choke coil, and
wherein the light source is movable in the light emitter such that a distance from the optical member to the light source is changed.
2. An illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein an actuator for moving the light source is provided in n upper area above the light source in the light emitter.
3. An illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an auxiliary optical member disposed above the light emitter,
wherein the heat radiating member is disposed so as not to face an upper face of the light emitter.
4. An illumination apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the auxiliary optical member is a wide panel for changing an illumination angle of the illumination light.
5. An illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the heat radiating member is disposed between the light emitter and a capacitor accumulating charge used for the emission of the light source.
6. An illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein an electrical insulating member is disposed between the ear face portion of the heat radiating member and the emission control substrate.
7. An illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is detachably attachable to an image capturing apparatus configured to perform image capturing of an object.
