DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] The figures show an optical system 2 for spotlights S according to the present invention.

[0043] As can be seen in particular from the sectional views of FIGS. 3 and 6 to 8, the optical system 2 comprises a first optical element 3 and a second optical element 4. The optical elements 3, 4 are arranged optically one behind the other along a light-radiating axis A. This can be easily seen in FIGS. 6 to 8, for example. The optical system 2 preferably comprises a light entry area LE for coupling light into the optical system 2 and a light exit area LA for decoupling light out of the optical system 2 after it has optically passed through the optical system 2 and thus the optical elements 3, 4.

[0044] The first optical element 3 can comprise an optical lens 30, such as a Fresnel lens. The lens 30 can preferably be held in a lens carrier 31, which in this case is configured as a ring 31 that circumferentially surrounds the outside of the lens 30. As shown, the lens carrier 31 in this case preferably surrounds the lens 30 in a quasi-annular manner. The second optical element 4 can comprise a stray disc 40, for example a diffusion disc. The stray disc 40 can likewise preferably be held in a carrier 41; this is comparable to the combination of lens 30 and lens carrier 31, as described above. The carrier 41 can thus also be designed as a ring that circumferentially surrounds the outside of the stray disc 40.

[0045] The optical system 2 also comprises an adjustment mechanism 5. The adjustment mechanism 5 is coupled to the first optical element 3 and the second optical element 4 such that it can move the optical elements 3, 4 along the light-radiating axis A in such a way that the optical elements 3, 4 can be moved relative to one another between a distanced position (see FIG. 6, for example), in which the optical elements 3, 4 are spaced apart along the light-radiating axis A, and an adjacent position (see FIG. 7, for example), in which the optical elements 3, 4 are arranged closer to one another than in the distanced position. The adjustment mechanism 5 is further coupled to the first optical element 3 and the second optical element 4 such that the optical elements 3, 4, when they are in the adjacent position, can be moved together along the light-radiating axis A while maintaining said adjacent position as is evident when looking at FIGS. 7 and 8, for example. The optical elements 3, 4, and the adjustment mechanism 5 are preferably aligned coaxially with one another.

[0046] The adjustment mechanism 5 can be configured such that only one of the optical elements, in this case preferably the second optical element 4, can be moved for the relative movement of the optical elements 3, 4 between the distanced and the adjacent position. This is evident from a combination of FIGS. 6 and 7, for example. For this purpose, the (second) optical element 4 can preferably be movable between a first position P1, in which it is in the distanced position relative to the other (first) optical element 3, and a second position P2, in which it is in the adjacent position relative to the other (first) optical element 3. Thus, while maintaining the optical influence on the, in this case first, optical element 3, the second optical element 4 can be moved along the light-radiating axis A in order to implement the optical function of the second optical element 4 and to adjust or change a light emission characteristic of a lamp S coupled to the optical system 2.

[0047] The adjustment mechanism 5 can be configured such that, when the optical elements 3, 4 are in the adjacent position, the one (second) optical element 4 can be moved along the light-radiating axis A from the second P2 to the first position P1, and preferably between the first and the second position P1, P2, while maintaining the adjacent position. Therefore, as shown by FIGS. 6 and 7, one of the optical elements 4 is first moved toward the other optical element 5. This is followed by a joint movement of the two optical elements 3, 4, in this case preferably against the previous movement of the one optical element 4, as can clearly be seen from a combination of FIGS. 7 and 8, for example.

[0048] The optical system 2 can comprise a mounting section 20 to connect the optical system 2 to a lamp S in such a way that the light of the lamp S can pass through both optical elements 3, 4 one after the other in the direction of the light-radiating axis A, preferably first the second optical element 4 and then the first optical element 3. For this purpose, the mounting section 20 can preferably be provided on a side which, with respect to the light-radiating axis A, faces the one (in this case the second) optical element 4. The mounting section 20 is therefore provided in a light entry area LE of the optical system 2.

[0049] As can in particular be seen when viewing FIGS. 6 to 8 together, it can thus be made possible to initially move only the second optical element 4 by means of the adjustment mechanism 5 in order to move the optical elements 3, 4 between the distanced position and the adjacent position; in this case then away from the mounting section 20. Both optical elements 3, 4 are then preferably moved back toward the mounting section 20 when the two optical elements 3, 4 move together along the light-radiating axis A by means of the adjustment mechanism 5 while maintaining the adjacent position.

[0050] The optical elements 3, 4 can respectively comprise guide pins 32, 42, which preferably extend radially from the respective optical element; particularly preferably outward. The lens carriers 31, 41, if present, can preferably comprise the guide pins 32, 42 of the respective optical elements 3, 4.

[0051] The adjustment mechanism 5 can comprise a guide element 6 having first and second guide grooves 63, 64. The guide pins 32 of the first optical element 3 can interact with the first guide grooves 63 and the guide pins 42 of the second optical element 4 can interact with the second guide grooves 64 such that the optical elements 3, 4 can be moved with respect to the light-radiating axis A via a rotation relative to the guide element 6. For this purpose, the guide pins 32, 42 can preferably engage with the corresponding guide grooves 63, 64.

[0052] The guide grooves 63, 64 can be angled toward one another in a first section 1A, in order to move the optical elements 3, 4 between the distanced and the adjacent position by means of the adjustment mechanism 5. Here, for example, an angle between the two guide grooves 63, 64 in the first section 1A is 45 degrees. However, the invention is not limited to this. Depending on the angle , a relative movement of the optical elements 3, 4 toward or away from one another can thus be achieved with a smaller angle of rotation or a correspondingly larger angle of rotation.

[0053] The guide grooves 63, 64 in a second section 2A can be parallel to one another, in order to move the optical elements 3, 4 together along the light-radiating axis A by means of the adjustment mechanism 5 while maintaining the adjacent position.

[0054] In the first section 1A, the first guide grooves 63 of the first optical element 3, preferably of the further optical element, can extend around the light-radiating axis A substantially in a plane orthogonal to the light-radiating axis A. This is clearly indicated by the horizontal section in FIGS. 4 and 5, for example. Due to the horizontal design with respect to the light-radiating axis A, it is thus made possible that the optical element correspondingly guided in this guide groove 63 is not moved during a rotation relative to the guide element 6 with respect to the light-radiating axis A, but rather maintains its position as shown, for example, by the first optical element 3 in FIGS. 6 and 7.

[0055] In the first section 1A, the second guide grooves 64 of the second optical element 4, preferably of the one optical element, can extend around the light-radiating axis A at an angle to said axis, as can also be seen in FIGS. 4 and 5. In this first section, it can thus be made possible to accordingly move the, in this case second, optical element 4 along the light-radiating axis via a relative rotation of the optical elements 3, 4 with respect to the guide element 6, as can also be seen in FIGS. 6 and 7.

[0056] In the second section 2A, the guide grooves 63, 64 of both optical elements 3, 4 can be parallel to one another and also extend around the light-radiating axis A at an angle to said axis, as can also be seen in FIGS. 4 and 5. These are preferably mirrored to the second guide groove 64 in the first section 1A with respect to a plane including the light-radiating axis A; thus axially back again. This therefore results in a flat V-shape, or boomerang shape, for the first guide groove 63, while the second guide groove 64 here has a substantially pointed V-shape. The required guiding movement first relatively toward one another and then together can thus be achieved in a simple manner.

[0057] The guide element 6 can comprise a cam ring which extends along the light-radiating axis A, in this case cylindrically, and comprises the guide grooves 63, 64, or it can be configured as such. The guide element 6 here is preferably aligned coaxially with the optical elements 3, 4.

[0058] The guide element 6 can comprise an exposed manipulation section 60, by means of which the guide element 6 can be gripped and also operated to effect the relative rotation. This is configured here as a radially projecting ring or flange and, for better grip, can comprise a corrugation or the like, for example, or can also be coated or surrounded with an inhibiting material such as rubber.

[0059] The adjustment mechanism 5 can also comprise a holding element 7, which is provided in a rotatable manner relative to the guide element 6 with respect to the light-radiating axis A. For this purpose, one of the holding element 7 or the guide element 6 (in this case the holding element 7) can comprise a groove 72, which extends in a plane orthogonal to the light-radiating axis A and in which a pin 62, which is fixedly coupled or integrally formed with the other pin 72 of the other holding element 7 or guide element 6 (in this case the guide element 7), is mounted. A relative rotation of the holding element 7 and the guide element 6 around the light-radiating axis A, while these components 6, 7 are not axially movably or fixedly connected with respect to the light-radiating axis A, is thus made possible.

[0060] The holding element 7 can be coupled to the optical elements 3, 4, and preferably their guide pins 32, 42 such that the optical elements 3, 4 are rotationally fixed with respect to the holding element 7 and mounted in an axially movable manner. The optical elements 3, 4 should therefore be taken along when the holding element 7 rotates in the direction of rotation, but still be able to move freely in axial direction along the light-radiating axis A with respect to the holding element 7. The holding element 7 can thus serve as torque support, as will be described below.

[0061] For this purpose, the holding element 7 can comprise further guide grooves 71, for example, which preferably extend parallel to the light-radiating axis A. The aforementioned and/or also further guide pins 32, 42, for example of the optical elements 3, 4, can interact, preferably engage, with the further guide grooves 71 such that they are mounted in a freely movable manner along the light-radiating axis A and the optical elements 3, 4 can move or be moved by relative rotation of the holding element 7 and the guide element 6 in the respective guide grooves 63, 64. The further guide pins 71 serve as torque support to take the optical elements 3, 4 with them in the direction of rotation and consequently move them in the guide grooves 63, 64, so that the optical elements 3, 4 can be moved according to the trajectory of the guide grooves 63, 64 with respect to the light-radiating axis A.

[0062] The holding element 7 can comprise a guide ring which extends along the light-radiating axis A, in this case cylindrically, and comprises the further guide grooves 71, or it can be configured as such. The holding element 7 here is preferably aligned coaxially with the guide element 6 and further preferably aligned coaxially with the optical elements 3, 4.

[0063] Like the guide element 6, the holding element 7 can also comprise an exposed further manipulation section 70, by means of which the holding element 7 can be gripped and also operated to effect the relative rotation.

[0064] As can be seen in the figures, the manipulation section 70 here is also provided as a preferably radially projecting flange like the manipulation section 60 of the guide element 6. The further manipulation section 70 can similarly also comprise the grip-enhancing structures or materials.

[0065] The adjustment mechanism 5 can furthermore comprise a housing element 8, which substantially radially delimits the adjustment mechanism 5 to the outside, as can be clearly seen in FIG. 1, for example. In a preferred configuration, the housing element 8 substantially circumferentially surrounds the outside of the guide element 6 and the holding element 7, thus forming a type of outer shell or outer housing of the optical system 2. The housing element 8 can be coupled to the guide element 6, as shown, or also the holding element 7, in a rotationally fixed manner. The three cylindrically configured elements (guide element 6, holding element 7, housing element 8) thus result in an overall preferably coaxial ring-like structure, whereby said three cylinders are preferably provided in a nested arrangement in order to form an overall compact optical system 2 in which the components are rotatable relative to one another, as can in particular be seen in FIGS. 6 to 8.

[0066] For this purpose, the housing element 8 can comprise a housing ring which extends along the light-radiating axis A, in this case cylindrically, or it can be configured as such. The housing element 8 here is preferably aligned coaxially with the holding element 7 and/or the guide element 6 and further preferably aligned coaxially with the optical elements 3, 4.

[0067] Coming back again to the manipulation sections 60, 70, as is evident in particular in FIG. 1 and FIGS. 6 to 8, these can preferably project from housing element 8. In this case, they project preferably axially from the housing element 8. In the design example shown here, the two manipulation sections 60, 70 project from or are arranged on opposite axial ends of the housing element 8, so that they can be gripped and functionally actuated by an operator in a particularly simple manner.

[0068] Looking at FIG. 1, it can be seen that a lighting system 1 is shown as well. A lighting system 1 according to the invention comprises the combination of the optical system 2 according to the invention with a spotlight S. The optical system 2 is arranged relative to the spotlight S such that the light of the spotlight S passes first through one of the optical elements, preferably the second optical element 4, and then the other optical element, preferably the first optical element 3, in the direction of the light-radiating axis A. To provide optical system 2 and spotlight S for forming the lighting system 1, these can preferably be accordingly connected to one another via the mounting section 20.

[0069] According to a particularly preferred configuration, the spotlight S can be an LED spotlight. Said spotlight then comprises LEDs or LED modules as the lighting means for emitting light. Of course, other lighting means are conceivable as well. In the context of the present invention, a spotlight S is in particular a type of lamp which emits light substantially in one primary emission direction regardless of the beam angle/emission cone, which can be narrow to wide. So-called spot lamps are suitable as such lamps.

[0070] A method according to the invention for adjusting a light emission characteristic of a spotlight S of a lighting system 1 according to the present invention will now be described in the following.

[0071] A lighting system 1 according to the present invention is initially generally provided. The adjustment mechanism 5 is then actuated in a further step. This is preferably carried out via a relative rotation of the guide element 6 on the one hand and the holding element 7 on the other. As a result of the actuation of the adjustment mechanism 5, the optical elements 3, 4 are moved between the distanced position and the adjacent position and, when the optical elements 3, 4 are in the adjacent position, can be moved together along the light-radiating axis A while maintaining the adjacent position.

[0072] Preferably only the second optical element can be moved to move the optical elements between the distanced position and the adjacent position. This preferably relative to the spotlight S, either away from it or toward it, as is evident from the combination of FIGS. 6 and 7 for example.

[0073] When the two optical elements 3, 4 move together along the light-radiating axis A while maintaining the adjacent positions, both optical elements 3, 4 can be moved relative to the spotlight S, either away from or toward said spotlight. This is evident from the combination of FIGS. 7 and 8, for example.

[0074] After the description of the mechanical adjustment function, the following will describe a resulting example of optical functions on the basis of an exemplary combination of optical element. For this purpose, it will be assumed that the first optical element 3 comprises an optical lens 40, such as a Fresnel lens. As an example here, the second optical element 4 is configured as a stray disc 40 and preferably as a diffusion disc. With reference to FIG. 6, in which the two optical elements 3, 4 are provided in the distanced position, the combination of the optical system 2 with a spotlight S to form a lighting system 1 now results in a spot-like light emission having a narrow beam angle and a simultaneously hard edge region. If the second optical element 4 is now moved toward the first optical element 3 via a rotation of the guide element 6 relative to the holding element 7, and thus away from the spotlight S, the hard edge region of the light cone is softened, thus achieving a so-called beam shaping effect. All of this takes place while maintaining the here narrow beam angle because, in this case, the first optical element 3 is not moved relative to the light-radiating axis A and the spotlight S.

[0075] This movement allows the light emission characteristic to be changed from the sharpest image of the light cone with a hard edge region while maintaining the beam angle to an increasingly softer image, in particular in the edge region. The edge of the light cone of a spotlight S in the narrowest beam angle (spot), for example, can thus be changed only in its edge region via an adjusting movement on the optical system 2. The transition from light to dark can be changed from abrupt to softly flowing, for example, without changing the actual beam angle of the lamp S. This should preferably take place via a simple (rotational) movement on the optical system 2.

[0076] With a further rotation of the guide element 6 with respect to the holding element 7, the two optical elements 3, 4 are then moved back along the light-radiating axis A, i.e. toward the spotlight S, i.e. to the maximum inner position nearest to the lamp, while maintaining the adjacent position. This changes the beam angle from an in this case narrow beam (spot), for example, to an in this case maximum wide beam (flood), for example, depending on the configuration of the optical system. Both adjustment variants should preferably all be able to be made with the same adjusting movement. Therefore, with the present invention, it is possible to preferably control two adjustment properties of a spotlight with only one adjusting movement; in this case, for example, the beam angle (zoom) and the control of the edge region of the light cone (beam shaping). On the other hand, it should also be possible to control only one of these adjustment properties alone and independently of the other with the same adjusting movement; in this case, for example, the control of the edge region of the light cone (beam shaping). All of this with simple operation, simple construction and minimal impact on the lamp design.

[0077] The present invention is not limited by the aforementioned design example, provided it is covered by the subject matter of the following claims. It is in particular possible to combine all features of the design example with one another in any manner. It is, for example, possible to use any optical elements 3, 4; depending on the desired light emission characteristics.
