Secondly, the example that constitutes in this way according to flowchart text shown in Figure 4.
At first,, and enter into step 402, carry out the boost chopper action that utilizes boost chopper circuit 13 by the not shown electric power starting that mains switch caused of utilizing of step 401.In the case, if the alternating electromotive force of AC power 10 in full-wave rectifying circuit 11 by full-wave rectification, and be supplied to boost chopper circuit 13, so in the boost chopper circuit control part 201 of control part 20, make field-effect transistor 15 carry out the open and close action according to the comparative result of the terminal voltage of the resistance 19 of pre-prepd reference voltage and voltage detection mechanism.Thus, the storage and the release of the electromagnetic energy of the inductor 14 of the open and close action by following field-effect transistor 15 produce the output voltage through boosting in electrolytic capacitor 17 via fly-wheel diode 16.
Secondly, enter into step 403, at first carry out the inverter action.In this step 403, the output voltage of boost chopper circuit 13 is input to output generation circuit 21.In output generation circuit 21, field-effect transistor 221,222 is constituted the inverter circuit of semi-bridge type by the output generation circuit control part 203 of control part 20, utilize the drive signal of being imported from output generation circuit control part 203 to make field-effect transistor 221,222 open and close simultaneously, thereby between the drain-source electrode of field-effect transistor 222, produce high-frequency ac.
Under this state, in step 404, detect and filament resistance corresponding output voltage VR in order to judge light source.Then, enter into step 405, judge that according to output voltage V R light source is discharge lamp 30 or LED illuminating lamp 32.In the case, produce resistance value (filament resistance) corresponding output voltage VR with the resistive element 34 (resistive element 35) of the resistance value of the filament 302 of discharge lamp 30 or LED illuminating lamp 32 at the tie point P of resistive element 39 and splicing ear 28c, and this output voltage V R is input to the light source detection unit 202 of control part 20.
In light source detection unit 202, use predefined critical value V1, V2 to judge that light source is discharge lamp 30 or LED illuminating lamp 32.Now,, in step 405, become VR V1 so, thereby judge that light source is a discharge lamp 30 if supposition is connected with the discharge lamp 30 as light source.
In the case, the capacitor 25 that makes switch element 26 carry out breakdown action in step 407 and make direct current end usefulness is opened.This action is to carry out when the inverter action of step 403, in step 407, repeats identical action.
Secondly, enter into step 408, the inverter action described in the step 403 is continued.In the case, output generation circuit 21 is also kept inverter circuit by field-effect transistor 221,222 semi-bridge types that constituted by the output generation circuit control part 203 of control part 20, and utilizes the drive signal of being imported from output generation circuit control part 203 to make field-effect transistor 221,222 open and close produce high-frequency ac output.
The high-frequency ac output of being exported from output generation circuit 21 is supplied to inductor 23 and resonance with capacitor 24, and make described inductor 23 and capacitor 24 as resonant circuit to move.Under this state, if preheat curent flows into the filament 301,302 of discharge lamp 30 from the 1st ancillary coil 231 and the 2nd ancillary coil 232, the starting resistor with regulation puts between the filament 301 and 302 of discharge lamp 30 so, thereby lights this discharge lamp 30.
Secondly, in step 409, the electric current that utilizes current detection circuit 38 will flow into discharge lamp 30 detects as load current.Then, if in step 410, be No (keeping electric power starting), in step 411, carry out so and decide Current Control.In the case, corresponding to the reference signal that is generated according to the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40 and by the reference signal generating unit 2041 of dimming control part 204, be input in the output generation circuit control part 203 with the control signal of the comparative result of the lamp current that is detected by current detection circuit 26.Thus, output generation circuit control part 203 utilizes and makes field-effect transistor 221,222 open and close of output generation circuit 21 produce high-frequency ac from the corresponding operating frequency of the control signal of dimming control part 204, thereby lights this discharge lamp 30.In the case, the control signal that inputs to output generation circuit control part 203 from dimming control part 204 is the control signal corresponding to the comparative result of reference signal and lamp current, owing to carry out FEEDBACK CONTROL, therefore so that the lamp current of discharge lamp 30 often carries out deciding Current Control (step 411) near the mode of reference signal.
Under this state, if utilize the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40 to make the reference signal that is generated by reference signal generating unit 2041 variable, the control signal of being exported from dimming control part 204 changes so, and discharge lamp 30 is in the control that is subjected to lighting a lamp to the scope of light modulation of full light.In the case, output generation circuit 21 is used to make field-effect transistor 221,222 carry out the open and close action from the operating frequency of the duty ratio of the drive signal of output generation circuit control part 203 (duty ratio) 50%, if but from this state, reference signal changes because of the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40, thereby cause changing from the control signal that dimming control part 204 is exported, so corresponding to the variation of this moment, change from the operating frequency of the duty ratio 50% of the drive signal of output generation circuit control part 203.Thus, the interchange output that is supplied to discharge lamp 30 is controlled, and the state of lighting a lamp of discharge lamp 30 is controlled to the scope of light modulation at full light corresponding to the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40.
Thereafter, in step 410, if be judged as Yes by power-off, the high-frequency ac of output generation circuit 21 stops so, and discharge lamp 30 is turned off the light.
On the other hand, under situation about being connected with, in step 405, become V1<VR V2, judge that light source is a LED illuminating lamp 32 as the LED illuminating lamp 32 of light source.So in step 413, switch element 26 carries out closing motion and makes direct current end capacitor 25 short circuits of usefulness.
Secondly, enter into step 414, switch to the chopper action that is used to light LED illuminating lamp 32.In the case, in step 414, the output voltage of boost chopper circuit 13 is input in the output generation circuit 21.In output generation circuit 21, output generation circuit control part 203 by control part 20, the field-effect transistor 222 of a side in the field-effect transistor 221,222 is closed, and the field-effect transistor 221 that makes the opposing party is according to the control signal of exporting from dimming control part 204 and open and close.Thus, the storage and the release of the electromagnetic energy of the inductor 23 of the open and close action by following field-effect transistor 221 produce the output voltage (direct current output) through step-down at capacitor 24 two ends, utilize this output voltage to light LED illuminating lamp 32.
Secondly, in step 409, utilize current detection circuit 38 and the electric current that will flow into LED illuminating lamp 32 as load current to detect.Then, if in step 410, be No (keeping electric power starting), in step 411, carry out so and decide Current Control.In the case, corresponding to the reference signal that is generated according to the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40 and by the reference signal generating unit 2041 of dimming control part 204, also be input in the output generation circuit control part 203 with the control signal of the comparative result of the lamp current that is detected by current detection circuit 26.Thus, output generation circuit control part 203 is corresponding to from the control signal of dimming control part 204 and make field-effect transistor 221,222 open and close of output generation circuit 21, the storage and the release of the electromagnetic energy of the inductor 23 of the open and close action by following this field-effect transistor 221, in the direct current output of capacitor 24 two ends generation, thereby light LED illuminating lamp 32 through step-down.
In the case, the control signal that inputs to output generation circuit control part 203 from dimming control part 204 also is the control signal corresponding to the comparative result of reference signal and lamp current, owing to carry out FEEDBACK CONTROL, therefore so that the lamp current of LED illuminating lamp 32 often carries out deciding Current Control (step 411) near the mode of reference signal.
In addition, under this state, if utilize the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40 to make the reference signal that is generated by reference signal generating unit 2041 variable, the control signal of being exported from dimming control part 204 also changes so, and LED illuminating lamp 32 is in the control that is subjected to lighting a lamp to the scope of light modulation of full light.In the case, this output generation circuit 21 makes field-effect transistor 221,222 carry out the open and close action with the duty ratio of the regulation imported from output generation circuit control part 203, if but from this state, reference signal changes because of the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40, thereby cause changing from the control signal that dimming control part 204 is exported, change corresponding to this so, the duty ratio of being imported from output generation circuit control part 203 changes.Thus, the direct current output that is supplied to LED illuminating lamp 32 is controlled, and the state of lighting a lamp of LED illuminating lamp 32 is controlled to the scope of light modulation at full light corresponding to the dim signal of dim signal generating unit 40.
Thereafter, in step 410, if be judged as Yes by power-off, the output of the direct current of this output generation circuit 21 stops so, and LED illuminating lamp 32 is turned off the light.
And then, when in step 405, being judged as V2<VR, be judged as the no-load condition that is not connected with light source, in step 406, stop the output of supply unit.
Therefore, if so operation, so by light source detection unit 202, the output voltage V R that obtains according to resistance value corresponding to resistive element 34 (35) set in the resistance value of the filament 302 of discharge lamp 30 and the LED illuminating lamp 32, judge that light source is discharge lamp 30 or LED illuminating lamp 32, according to this result of determination, if judge that light source is a discharge lamp 30, make the field-effect transistor 221 of this output generation circuit 21 so, 222 constitute the inverter circuit of semi-bridge type, and by utilizing described field-effect transistor 221,222 the open and close that replaces and the interchange of the high frequency that produces are exported and are lighted this discharge lamp 30, in addition, if judge that light source is a LED illuminating lamp 32, make field-effect transistor 221 by output generation circuit 21 so, the field-effect transistor 222 of a side in 222 is closed, utilize the opposing party's field-effect transistor 221 to constitute the buck chopper devices, and export by the direct current that the open and close that utilizes this field-effect transistor 221 produces and to light LED illuminating lamp 32.Thus, can supply with the interchange output of best high frequency to discharge lamp 30, and also can supply with best and stable direct current output to LED illuminating lamp 32, therefore the diode-bridge circuit that is assembled into LED illuminating lamp inside with previous utilization converts alternating electromotive force to direct current power and lights the LED illuminating lamp of LED element and compare, and can obtain not produce in the LED element the stable action of lighting a lamp of flicker etc.
In addition, in LED illuminating lamp 32,1 full-wave rectifying circuit 36 that comprises diode bridge only is set, and (this full-wave rectifying circuit 36 is if when being installed on the appliance body 1 of LED illuminating lamp 32, the formation that has been determined in advance with respect to the polar orientation of supply unit, can omit so), compare with the LED illuminating lamp that the previous circuit that is assembled into complexity such as a plurality of diode-bridge circuits in LED illuminating lamp inside constitutes, also can be more cheap on the price, the economy when a plurality of this kind LED illuminating lamp is set also can be more favourable.
In addition, in above-mentioned, the capacitor 25 of direct current by usefulness is connected in series between capacitor 24 and the field-effect transistor 222, but also it can be connected in series between inductor 23 and the field-effect transistor 221, in addition, also it can be connected in series in respectively between capacitor 24 and the field-effect transistor 222 and inductor 23 and field-effect transistor 221 between.In the case, described capacitor and switch element are connected in parallel, when judging that light source is LED illuminating lamp 32, and the also breakdown action of the switch element of the indication by utilizing control part 20 and short circuit.
In addition, in above-mentioned, described and utilized field-effect transistor 221,222 to constitute the example of the inverter circuit of semi-bridge type, but also can use other switch elements to replace described field-effect transistor 221,222.In the case, as long as the switch element that makes a side who is equivalent to field-effect transistor 222 is made of the switch portion of the diode that is connected in parallel, and can obtains the action identical and get final product with field-effect transistor 222.
(variation)
In above-mentioned the 1st example, carry out the full luminous point lamp and the light modulation of discharge lamp 30 (or LED illuminating lamp 32) lights a lamp according to the reference signal that dim signal generated of utilizing outside dim signal generator 40, but when light source is LED illuminating lamp 32, if import dim signal for light modulation is lit a lamp, the rising of Ci Shi dim signal is slower so, therefore the LED element 37 of LED illuminating lamp 32 is only lighted the situation that existence can't begin to light from desired lightness in a flash brightly sometimes.
Therefore, in this variation,, also can obtain stable light modulation and light a lamp even be under the situation of LED illuminating lamp 32 at light source.In the case, as shown in Figure 2, in control part 20 and then be provided with and postpone control part 205.If from dimming control part 204 output control signals, this postpones control part 205 and has only postponed the stipulated time so, and output generation circuit control part 203 is moved.
Other are identical with Fig. 2.
If so operation, so when judging that light source is LED illuminating lamp 32, begin through after the certain hour from the output of control signal, brightness adjustment control based on control signal becomes effective, and carry out the light modulation of LED illuminating lamp 32, therefore the undesirable lightness (only lighting brightly in a flash) the during startup in the LED illuminating lamp 32 disappears, and can begin to carry out light modulation from desired lightness and light a lamp.
But, if from dimming control part 204 output control signals, and judge that by light source detection unit 202 light sources are LED illuminating lamp 32, after the delay control part 205 of this variation has postponed the stipulated time so output generation circuit control part 203 is moved, if but for example integrating circuit is set at the control signal of being exported from dimming control part 204, control signal is gently increased, the what is called that so also can make the lightness of LED illuminating lamp 32 gently rise to desired lightness fade in (fade in).
(the 2nd example)
In the 1st example, when judging that light source is discharge lamp 30 or LED illuminating lamp 32, the resistance value corresponding output voltage VR of set resistive element 34 (35) in the resistance value of the filament 302 of detection and discharge lamp 30 and the LED illuminating lamp 32, but in the 2nd example, the voltage when being conceived to the startup of discharge lamp 30 and LED illuminating lamp 32 or the different this point of propradation of electric current are judged light source.
The summary that Fig. 5 (a) (b) represents the 2nd example of the present invention constitutes, to the part mark identical symbol identical with Fig. 2.In the case, in the LED illuminating lamp 32 shown in Fig. 5 (b), short circuit respectively between the splicing ear 33a and 33b of female connectors 33, between splicing ear 33c and the 33d.In addition, in Fig. 5 (a), the field-effect transistor 221,222 and the electric power testing circuit 41 of this output generation circuit 21 are connected in series.This electric power testing circuit 41 has the resistive element 411 that is connected in series with field-effect transistor 221,222, and the voltage that produced in this resistive element 411 load electric as discharge lamp 30 (or LED illuminating lamp 32) is detected.In addition, the light source detection unit of control part 20 202 during according to the startup of the discharge lamp 30 that is detected by electric power testing circuit 41 and LED illuminating lamp 32 voltage and the state of electric current, judge that light source is discharge lamp 30 or LED illuminating lamp 32.In the case, modulating voltage VL during the startup of discharge lamp 30 is by the inverter action of field-effect transistor 221,222, shown in Fig. 6 (a), becomes certain size between the preheating elementary period, after further becoming greatly before the discharge beginning, maintain certain voltage along with the discharge beginning.In addition, lamp current IL is not flowing between the preheating elementary period shown in Fig. 6 (b), along with the discharge of discharge lamp 30 begins and begins to flow.With respect to this, modulating voltage during the startup of LED illuminating lamp 32 is shown in Fig. 6 (c), and the forward voltage Vf by LED element 37 after the inverter action of field-effect transistor 221,222 comes clamp (clamped), simultaneously, shown in Fig. 6 (d), the electric current I f of a direction begins to flow.Thus, in light source detection unit 202, by forward voltage Vf come the modulating voltage (than the startup of discharge lamp 30 Fig. 6 (a) shown in time modulating voltage VL little) of clamp as shown in Fig. 6 (c) if detect after starting from the output voltage of electric power testing circuit 41, judge that so light source is a LED illuminating lamp 32, in addition, if the modulating voltage VL of the discharge lamp 30 when the output voltage of electric power testing circuit 41 detects than the startup shown in the big a lot Fig. 6 (a) of forward voltage Vf judges that so light source is a discharge lamp 30.
If judge that according to the judged result of light source detection unit 202 light source is a discharge lamp 30, this output generation circuit control part 203 makes field-effect transistor 221 so, 222 constitute the inverter circuit of semi-bridge type, make field-effect transistor 221, the 222 alternately open and close interchange outputs that produce high frequency, in addition, if judge that by light source detection unit 202 light source is a LED illuminating lamp 32, this output generation circuit control part 203 makes field-effect transistor 221 so, the field-effect transistor 222 of a side in 222 is closed, and the chopper of field-effect transistor 221 open and close by making the opposing party moves and produces direct current output.
Thus, below can obtain and the identical action of above-mentioned the 1st example, and can obtain identical effect.In addition, according to this 2nd example, together be provided with current detection circuit 38 with electric power testing circuit 41, therefore for example when light source is LED illuminating lamp 32, can come LED illuminating lamp 32 is carried out deciding Current Control according to the comparative result of the load current that is detected by current detection circuit 38 with the reference signal that is generated by reference signal generating unit 2041, in addition, when light source is discharge lamp 30, also can come discharge lamp 30 is carried out deciding electric power control according to the comparative result of the load electric that is detected by electric power testing circuit 41 with the reference signal that is generated by reference signal generating unit 2041.
In addition, in above-mentioned example, the judgement of the light source in the light source detection unit 202 is that the state according to the output voltage of the electric power testing circuit 41 after starting carries out, for example, also can according to the detection of current detection circuit 38 export start as surveying shown in Fig. 6 (d) after the flowing of electric current I f of a direction, judge that thus light source is a LED illuminating lamp 32, in other cases, judge that light source is a discharge lamp 30.
(variation)
In above-mentioned the 2nd example, described the situation that discharge lamp 30 and LED illuminating lamp 32 are respectively 1, but existence a plurality of discharge lamps of use or LED illuminating lamp are as the situation of light source.In the case, as long as a plurality of light sources all only be discharge lamp or only be just no problem of LED illuminating lamp, for example in a plurality of discharge lamps, connect 1 LED illuminating lamp or among a plurality of LED illuminating lamps, connect mixing year of 1 so-called light source such as discharge lamp on the contrary but produce sometimes.In this variation, judge mix carrying of this kind light source and stop the output of supply unit forcibly.
In the case, in the light source detection unit 202 of control part 20, output voltage (load electric) peak value in the time of will be corresponding to the lighting a lamp of the series connection number of a plurality of discharge lamps 30 through being connected in series is set at the 1st fiducial value, and the output voltage (direct voltage) in the time of will be corresponding to the lighting a lamp of a plurality of series connection numbers through LED coupled in series illuminating lamp 32 is set at the 2nd fiducial value.Output voltage (load electric) when being the lighting a lamp of discharge lamp 30 of the 1st fiducial value as the output voltage (direct voltage) in the lighting a lamp of the LED illuminating lamp 32 of the 2nd fiducial value herein, is below the peak value.
If so set, so by light source detection unit 202, the output voltage that is produced in the resistive element 411 of electric power testing circuit 41 is under the situation more than the 1st fiducial value, to be judged to be and to be connected with a plurality of discharge lamps 30.In addition, the output voltage that is produced in the resistive element 411 of electric power testing circuit 41 is under the situation below the 1st fiducial value, to be judged to be and to be connected with LED illuminating lamp 32, and then, use the 2nd fiducial value to judge and mix the possibility of carrying.In the case, if the output voltage that is produced in the resistive element 411 surpasses the 2nd fiducial value, be judged to be so to exist to mix and carry.Certainly, if the output voltage that is produced in the resistive element 411 is the 2nd fiducial value, is judged to be so and is connected with a plurality of LED illuminating lamps 32.And, carry if in light source detection unit 202, be judged to be to exist to mix, stop the output of supply unit so immediately.Thus, mistake is installed the LED illuminating lamp even exist with respect to a plurality of discharge lamps or with respect to a plurality of LED illuminating lamps and the situation that mistake is installed discharge lamp, can judge exactly that also mixing of described light source carry, and can suitably stop the output of supply unit.
In above-mentioned, described a plurality of through being connected in series discharge lamp 30 and the situation of LED illuminating lamp 32, but a plurality of discharge lamp 30 and situation of LED illuminating lamp 32 through being connected in parallel is also same as described above, can judge exactly that mixing of light source carry.
In addition, in light source detection unit 202, also can detect the direct voltage composition of the output voltage that is produced in the resistive element 411 of this electric power testing circuit 41, judge thus and mix the possibility of carrying according to judging that light source is the state of discharge lamp 30.In the case, in light source detection unit 202, prepared the direct voltage composition detection function of output voltage, if the direct voltage composition of the output voltage that is produced in the resistive element 411 is more than the ormal weight, judge to mix being loaded with discharge lamp and stopping with the LED illuminating lamp exporting so.In the case, when the output voltage that is produced in the resistive element 411 only is the direct voltage composition, judge to be connected with a plurality of LED illuminating lamps.

Even so operation also can obtain the effect identical with the 3rd example.
(the 4th example)
In addition, in the supply unit of discharge lamp special use formerly, supply unit with following initial illumination degree correcting function, promptly, because of the process of conduction time of discharge lamp causes lightness to descend with the lamp deterioration, therefore by arbitrary method to counting the conduction time of discharge lamp, and make for the supply capability of discharge lamp in the mode that the lightness that comes compensate for lamp according to this count results descends variable, thereby begin till the end of lifetime lightness of lamp is kept certain from the use of discharge lamp.The unnecessary electric power of this kind initial illumination degree correcting function when the use of blocking discharge lamp begins supply with and energy consumption suppressed till the end of lifetime of lamp aspect effective.
