A pointer includes a case housing an LED device and including a light emission hole through which light from the device is emitted to an external space, a first plate between the device and the light emission hole and including a first light passage hole that allows passage of the light from the device, and a second plate between the first plate and the light emission hole and including a second light passage hole that allows passage of the light having passed through the first light passage hole. The light passage holes and the light emission hole are located on a central axis of the device. The device and the first and second plates are disposed such that H/2<S<H, where H denotes a distance between the device and the first plate, and S denotes a distance between the first and second plates.

An illumination apparatus comprises a first substrate, an optical structure, an array of light emitting elements disposed on the first substrate and between the first substrate and the optical structure, and a mask comprising a plurality of apertures therein. The optical structure is configured to receive light emitted by the array of light emitting elements, direct the received light into a direction away from the first substrate, direct at least some of the light which has been directed away from the first substrate back towards the first substrate, and direct at least some of the light which has been directed back towards the first substrate through the plurality of apertures of the mask.

A lighting device contains light-emitting elements and has an elongated shape. The lighting device has a housing that has reflective side walls extending in a longitudinal direction of the housing; a cavity formed between the reflective side walls; and light-emitting elements arranged at least partially along the longitudinal direction relative to each other in the cavity. An opening of the cavity forms a light-emitting area, A width of the cavity expands from the light-emitting elements towards the opening at least in sections. A reflective element covers at least a section of the opening and reflects a part of light emitted from the light-emitting elements towards the cavity and reduces a width of the light-emitting area compared to a width of the opening.

A beam shading device capable of accurately positioning includes a substrate, a plurality of shading blades mounted on the substrate, and driving mechanisms for driving the shading blades to move. The substrate is provided with a first light-passing hole through which beams pass, the plurality of shading blades are arranged around the periphery of the first light-passing hole, and the driving mechanisms drive the shading blades to move back and forth between blocking and opening the first light-passing hole. Each shading blade is configured with at least two driving mechanisms, and each driving mechanism includes a driving gear and a driving plate. The driving plate is hinged with the shading blade, and the driving plate is provided with a rack that meshes with the driving gear.
