  • Publication number: 20240075754
    Abstract: A light irradiator includes a light source including a plurality of light-emitting elements, a blower for blowing toward the light source, a heat sink coupled to the light source, a housing accommodating the light source, the blower, and the heat sink and having an outlet adjacent to the heat sink and an inlet adjacent to the blower, and a partition in the housing. The partition divides an internal space of the housing into an air blowing space between the blower and the heat sink and a remaining space excluding the air blowing space.

  • Patent number: 11618268
    Abstract: A light irradiator includes a light source, a heat-dissipating member thermally connected to the light source, a drive including a drive circuit for the light source, a housing having vents and an irradiation opening for light from the light source to pass, and a blower. The rectangular housing has a first surface having a first side with a first dimension and a second side with a second dimension, a second surface having the second side and a third side with a third dimension, and a third surface having the first and third sides. The opening is in the first surface. A first vent and a second vent are in the second surface, with the first vent nearer the opening, and the second vent opposite to the opening. The heat-dissipating member faces the first vent. The drive is between the first and second vents. The blower faces the second vent.
