  • Solid-state lateral emitting optical system
    Patent number: 7524098
    Abstract: The optical lens embodiment of the invention refracts and reflects light emitted from the light emitting diode chips on a unique combination of curved surfaces to obtain the desired coupling to a lateral light guide. The system of curved surfaces redirects rays from multiple LED chips laterally by multiple refraction and/or reflection. The optical lens has an optical axis, and comprises a bottom surface and a curved reflecting surface having a concave side. The concave side is oriented to face said bottom surface at an oblique angle. The reflecting surface surrounds the optical axis. The lens comprises a first curved refracting surface having a concave side facing the concave side of the reflecting surface and a second refracting surface extending as a smooth curve from the bottom surface to the first refracting surface.
