  • Patent number: 8425052
    Abstract: The invention relates to an illumination system (100), a projection device, and a color wheel (20, 22, 24). The illumination system comprises a light source comprising a first light-emitting unit (50) and a second light-emitting unit each emitting light towards a light output window (110). The illumination system comprises the color wheel including a spoke (40) between two adjacent color segments. The system is configured to prevent the spoke when transiting the optical path (80) between the light source and the light output window to simultaneously transit a first optical path between the first light-emitting unit and the light output window and a second optical path between the second light-emitting unit and the light output window. The illumination system further comprises a drive unit (92) which is configured for switching off the first light-emitting unit during a time interval (p1) when the spoke transits the first optical path.

  • Patent number: 8338846
    Abstract: A method for the manufacture of a wavelength converted light emitting device is provided. A light curable coating material is arranged on the outer surface of a wavelength converted light emitting diode. The light curable coating material is cured, in positions where a high intensity of unconverted LED-light encounters the curable coating material. The method can be used to selectively stop unconverted light from exiting the device, leading to a wavelength converted LED essentially only emitting converted light.

  • Publication number: 20120186271
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an acoustic cooling system (1) arranged for cooling by generating sound waves, said system (1) comprising a transducer (2) and a control unit (6) configured to generate a drive signal (S1) for exciting said transducer (2), wherein said drive signal is a multi-harmonic drive signal comprising at least one higher harmonic (A2-A5) selected to reduce the presence of at least one corresponding higher harmonic (B2-B5) comprised in the sound waves. The system is advantageous in that noise-reduction can be achieved without the need of incorporating a second transducer, thereby enabling a compact acoustic cooling system at a low cost.

  • Publication number: 20100265717
    Abstract: A lighting device (1) comprising an LED-unit (5), a collimator (2) and a housing (3), the LED-unit (5) is rigidly coupled to the collimator (2) only, so that no substantial forces can be applied to the LED-unit (5). A non-rigid heat transferring medium (10) is provided in a cavity (12) in the housing (3), to dissipate heat, generated by the LED-unit (5). The LED-unit (5) is therefore at least partly contained in the heat transferring medium (10).
