  • Patent number: 10485067
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for protecting a user of a light system (100), which comprises multiple illuminants (L1-L6), at least one light sensor (30) and at least one coding unit (40), from dazzling light from at least one of the illuminants (L1-L6), comprising the following steps: creating of a respective coding for light (M1-M6) of the individual illuminants (L1-L6) by the at least one coding unit (40), detecting of dazzling light (M2X) from at least one of the illuminants (L1-L6) by the at least one light sensor (30), assigning of the detected dazzling light (M2X) with the at least one associated illuminant (L2) on the basis of the coding of the light for the corresponding illuminant (L2), and setting of the at least one associated illuminant (L2) to protect the user from the detected dazzling light (M2X). The invention furthermore relates to a light system (100) and a machine (200) having the light system (100) for carrying out a method according to the invention.

  • Patent number: 10427589
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a work lighting (100) for a machine (200) for generating an adaptive working illumination, comprising a plurality of lighting means (10) arranged in the form of a light-emitting matrix (20) to generate the working illumination, and at least one central adjusting unit (60, 70, 80) for separately adjusting the working illumination of the individual lighting means (10) in the light-emitting matrix. The invention further relates to a machine (200) having a work lighting (100) according to the invention.

  • Patent number: 9388962
    Abstract: The invention relates to a LED spotlight, preferably for white light, comprising—an LED module having several LED chips on a carrier,—a cooling body that is in thermal contact with the LED module,—a reflector that laterally surrounds the LED chips, and—a light mixing chamber arranged within the reflector and laterally surrounding the LED chips, the light mixing chamber base surface and the reflector bottom being located on the same plane.

  • Patent number: 8833964
    Abstract: The invention relates to an elongated luminous element (1) having a plurality of approximately point-shaped light sources (2) disposed along a line and having light diffusion means (3) deflecting at least one part of the light rays (12) sent out by the light sources (2) in a desired direction. The light diffusion means (3) are disposed lateral to the main emitting direction of the light sources. The elongated luminous element (1) is particularly suitable for installation in a light box (13) for advertising or demonstration purposes. The light box has a transparent or partially transparent front side (7) and a reflective back side (8). The elongated luminous element (1) or a plurality thereof is or are applied to at least one of the side areas (11, 14), such that the light rays (12) emitted by the light sources (2) and deflected by the light diffusing means (3) are aimed between or on the back side (8) and/or the front side (7) of the light box (13).
