Technical field

The present invention relates to a lighting for underwater use.

Background art

Lightings for underwater use, for example for use in a pool, a fountain, a pond, etc., known from the prior art comprise a housing. The housing comprises an optically transparent front portion and a back portion together enclosing an internal volume of the housing. The lighting comprises a printed circuit board, PCB, with a substrate layer and at least one light source, such as a light emitting diode, LED, arranged on a front side of the substrate layer and optionally electronic circuitry associated with the at least one light source arranged on the substrate layer. The PCB is arranged in the internal volume of the housing with the front side of the substrate layer facing towards the front portion of the housing and with a back side of the substrate layer facing towards the back portion of the housing.

Such lightings do however have the disadvantage that it is difficult to remove heat generated by the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electrical circuitry from the housing. Since the PCB is enclosed in the housing and because of the underwater use, the generated heat cannot be removed easily by ventilation. Current solutions, known from the prior art, involve part of the PCB being in direct contact with the housing or with a heat sink in contact with the water to remove the heat more efficiently. These solutions do, however, involve more components, are more costly and more susceptible to failure due to less than optimal contact between the different parts.

This aim is achieved according to the present invention with a lighting for underwater use showing the technical characteristics of the first independent claim. Therefore, the present invention provides a lighting for underwater use, for example for use in a pool, a fountain, a pond, etc. The lighting comprises a housing. The housing comprises a front portion and a back portion together enclosing an internal volume of the housing. At least a part of the front portion is optically transparent. The lighting comprises a printed circuit board, PCB. The PCB comprises a substrate layer. The PCB comprises at least one light source arranged on a front side of the substrate layer. Optionally, the PCB also comprises, arranged on the substrate layer, preferably on the front side of the substrate layer, electronic circuitry associated with the at least one light source. The associated electronic circuity may alternatively also be arranged in a safe location outside of the housing and electrically connected from there to the at least one light source on the front side of the substrate layer. The PCB is arranged in the internal volume of the housing with the front side of the substrate layer facing towards the front portion of the housing and with a back side of the substrate layer facing towards the back portion of the housing. The housing is provided with at least one first opening to allow water to enter the internal volume of the housing and have direct contact with the PCB. The at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry are sealed off from contact with the water, for example by means of a waterproof seal closing off an area of the internal volume in which the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry are located, or for example by means of a waterproof seal covering the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry.

The lighting according to the present invention offers the advantage that water can enter the internal volume of the housing through the at least one first opening, where it comes into contact with the PCB, except for the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry, for removing heat from the substrate layer which has dissipated from the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry to the substrate layer. Since water has a high heat capacity, the heat can be dissipated more efficiently from the substrate layer, such that the cooling of the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry is improved.

The at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry being sealed off from contact with the water is beneficial for safety, since it prevents water from coming into contact with electrical components of the lighting, i.e. the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry.

In an embodiment of the lighting according to the present invention, the lighting comprises an optically transparent, electrically insulating and waterproof first seal covering at least the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry on the front side of the substrate layer for sealing off the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry from contact with the water.

The electrically insulating first seal covering the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry is beneficial for safety, since it prevents electricity from being conducted from the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry to the water via the first seal, and since it prevents the first seal layer from forming undesired electrical connections between portions of the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry.

The at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry being arranged on the front side of the substrate layer and the waterproof first seal covering the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry is beneficial for safety, since it prevents water from coming into contact with electrical components of the lighting, i.e. the at least one light source and, if present, the associated electronic circuitry.

Modes for carrying out the invention

The present invention will be described with respect to particular embodiments and with reference to certain drawings but the invention is not limited thereto but only by the claims. The drawings described are only schematic and are non-limiting. In the drawings, the size of some of the elements may be exaggerated and not drawn on scale for illustrative purposes. The dimensions and the relative dimensions do not necessarily correspond to actual reductions to practice of the invention.

Furthermore, the terms first, second, third and the like in the description and in the claims, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a sequential or chronological order. The terms are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances and the embodiments of the invention can operate in other sequences than described or illustrated herein.

Moreover, the terms top, bottom, over, under and the like in the description and the claims are used for descriptive purposes and not necessarily for describing relative positions. The terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances and the embodiments of the invention described herein can operate in other orientations than described or illustrated herein.

The term “comprising”, used in the claims, should not be interpreted as being restricted to the means listed thereafter; it does not exclude other elements or steps. It needs to be interpreted as specifying the presence of the stated features, integers, steps or components as referred to, but does not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps or components, or groups thereof. Thus, the scope of the expression “a device comprising means A and B” should not be limited to devices consisting only of components A and B. It means that with respect to the present invention, the only relevant components of the device are A and B. Figures 1 A and 1 B show a lighting 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention respectively from the front and the back in a perspective view. Figures 3, 4 and 5 show the same lighting 100 respectively in a back view, an exploded view of the housing and the PCB, and a cross section centrally through the lighting 100.

The lighting 100 comprises a housing 200. The housing 200 comprises a front portion 210 and a back portion 220 which are connected to each other, for example by gluing or ultrasonic melting, thereby enclosing an internal volume 230 of the housing 200. It should be clear that any other suitable manner known by the skilled person for connecting the front portion 210 and the back portion 220 can be used.

In the internal volume 230 of the housing 200, there is arranged a printed circuit board, PCB 300, which is shown in more detail in the Figures 2A an 2B, respectively from the front and the back in a perspective view. The PCB 300 comprises a substrate layer 310 having a front side 311 and a back side 312. The PCB 300 is arranged in the housing 200 such that the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310 is facing towards the front portion 210 of the housing 200, and such that the back side 312 of the substrate layer 310 is facing towards the back portion 220 of the housing 200. The material of the substrate layer 310 is preferably a non-corrosive material to protect the substrate layer 310 against corrosion damage from water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200. For this purpose, the substrate layer 310, or at least the portions of the substrate layer 310 that are facing the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 and thus exposed to water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200, may optionally also be covered with a protective coating 313 in a non-corrosive material.

The front side 311 of the substrate layer 310 is provided with a plurality of light emitting diodes, LEDs 320, and electronic circuitry 330 that is associated with the LEDs 320. Alternatively, such associated electronic circuitry 330 can be arranged outside of the housing 200. The LEDs 320 are used as the light sources of the lighting 100, but it should be clear that another suitable type of light source known to the skilled person can be used. The LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 are electrically insulated from the substrate layer 310, such that no undesired electrical connections are formed in the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 by the substrate layer 310, which electrical connections might for example cause a short circuit. This electrical insulation may for example be achieved by providing the substrate layer itself in an electrically insulating material, such as for example ceramic, or for example by providing an electrically insulating layer 332 between the substrate layer 310 on the one hand and the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 on the other hand, such as shown in the Figures 6-8, which will be discussed in more detail below.

The components of the electronic circuitry 330 are arranged on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310 along an outer circle at the circumference of the substrate layer 310 and in an inner circle at the centre of the substrate layer 310. The LEDs 320 are arranged on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310 along an intermediate circle in between the outer circle and the inner circle. The present invention is however not limited to this arrangement of the LEDS 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330, and it should be clear that other arrangements can be used.

The back side 312 of the substrate layer 310 is left mostly blank, except for two electrical connectors 600 protruding from back side 312 of the substrate layer 310. These electrical connectors 600 can also be seen at the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310, where they are connected, for example by soldering, to the electronic circuitry 330 associated with the LEDs 320, and through which electrical power can be provided to said electronic circuitry 330 and the LEDs 320. From the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310, the two electrical connectors 600 extend through two through openings 340 in the substrate layer 310, to the back side 312 of the substrate layer 310. The through openings 340 preferably have a diameter in the range from 0,1 mm to 20 mm. From the back side 312 of the substrate layer 310, the electrical connectors 600 extend further through the internal volume 230 of the housing 200, and through two second openings 222 in the back portion 220 of the housing 200 to the exterior of the housing 200. At the exterior of the housing 200, the back portion of the housing 200 is provided with a mechanical connector 224 surrounding the two second openings 220 and the electrical connectors 600 protruding through the second openings 220. This mechanical connector 224 is provided for establishing a waterproof connecting with a socket (not shown) providing electrical wiring to the electrical connectors 600. In the embodiment shown the front portion 210 of the housing 200 is a glass plate 210 or lens 210. The glass plate 210 in itself is optically transparent, i.e. transparent at least for visible light, such that light can be emitted from the LEDs 320 within the housing 200 through the front portion 210 to the exterior of the housing 200. In this embodiment, the glass plate 210 is provided with a first translucent area 211 and a second translucent area 213. The first translucent area 211 and the second translucent area 213 are printed on the glass plate 210 at side of the glass plate 210 directed to the inside of the housing 200. The first translucent area 211 is ring shaped and located at the circumference of the circular shaped glass plate 210, and the second translucent area 213 is circular shaped and located at the centre of the circular shaped glass plate. In between the first translucent area 211 and the second translucent area 213 there is left a ring shaped transparent area 212. The first translucent area 211 and the second translucent area 213 lie above the electronic circuitry 330 on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310, such that the electronic circuitry 330 is not visible from the exterior of the housing 200. The transparent area 212 lies above the LEDs 320 on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310 to allow light emitted by the LEDs 320 to pass through the glass plate 310 to the exterior of the housing 200.

In alternative embodiments other types of front portion, instead of a glass plate 210, can however be used as long as at least a part of the front portion is optically transparent such that light can be emitted by the LEDs 320 from within the housing 200 through the front portion 210 to the exterior of the housing 200.

The PCB 300 is sealed, for example by gluing, to the glass plate 210 by means of a first seal 400. The first seal 400 completely fills the space of the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 that is located between the glass plate 210 and the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310 of the PCB 300. Thereby, the first seal completely covers the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310, and thus also the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 arranged on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310. The material of the first seal 400 is a waterproof material such that water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 cannot come into contact with the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 at the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310. The material of the first seal 400 is also an electrically insulating material such that no undesired electrical connections are formed in the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 by the first seal 400, which electrical connections might for example cause a short circuit. The material of the first seal 400 is also an optically transparent material such that light emitted by the LEDs 320 can pass through the first seal 400 to the glass plate 210 and the exterior of the housing 200.

The PCB 300 is also sealed, for example by gluing, with the back side 312 of the substrate layer 310 to the back portion 220 of the housing 200 by means of a second seal 500. Thereby, the second seal 500 completely surrounds the portion of the electrical connectors 600 that extends through the internal volume 230 of the housing 200. The material of the first seal 400 is a waterproof material such that water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 cannot come into contact with the electrical connectors 600.

For cooling the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 of the PCB 300 in the housing 200, the back portion 220 of the housing 200 is provided with a plurality of first openings 221 which allow water to enter the internal volume 230 of the housing 200, except for the areas of the internal volume 230 where the first seal 400 and the second seal 500 are located, since they are waterproof for protecting the LEDs 320, the associated electronic circuitry 330 and the electronic connectors 600 from coming into contact with the water. The back portion 220 of the housing is provided at the first openings 221 with fins 223, which aid in guiding water in and out of the internal volume 230 of the housing 200. The plurality of first openings 221 are arranged on the back portion 220 of the housing along a circle which corresponds to the intermediate circle along which the LEDs 320 are arranged on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310. This arrangement has the advantage that the cooling of the water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 is directed to parts of the substrate layer 310 that lie directly behind the LEDs 320, which generate the most heat. In general, it is preferable that, independent of the arrangement of the LEDs on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310, the plurality of first openings 221 in the back portion 220 of the housing 200 are positioned in a similar or corresponding arrangement on the back portion 220 of the housing 200 as the arrangement of the LEDs 320 on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310.

In this configuration, heat generated by the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 is dissipated through the substrate layer 310 from the front side 311 to the back side 312 of the substrate layer 310 and further to the water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 which is in contact with the back side 312 of the substrate layer 310. Cooling in this manner has the advantage that much heat can be dissipated, since water has a high heat capacity, and heated water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 can be replenished by fresh water entering from the pool, for example due to movement of the water.

To allow for an efficient cooling of the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330, the material of the substrate layer 310 and that of an optional protective coating 313 on the substrate layer 310, is preferably a thermally conductive material which allows for a quick dissipation of heat from the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 to water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200 that comes into contact with the substrate layer

310 or the optional protective coating 313.

Each of the Figures 6-9 shows in cross section a schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of a PCB 300 for use in a lighting 100 according to the present invention. These PCBs 300 can be assembled by means of a Surface Mount Technology, SMT, manufacturing process or a similar process.

The PCB 300 shown in Figure 6, comprises a metal core substrate layer 310. A first electrically insulating or dielectric layer 332 is arranged as a first layer on the front side 311 of the substrate layer 310, which first electrically insulating layer 332 preferably has a thickness of 0,025 mm. The first electrically insulating layer 332 is put on the metal core substrate layer 310 to electrically insulate the LEDs 320 and the associated electronic circuitry 330 arranged on the front side

311 of the substrate layer 310 from the metal core substrate layer 310 to avoid short circuit. In this embodiment, the associated electronic circuitry 330 comprises a first electrically conductive layer 331 , a second electrically insulating layer 332, a second electrically conductive layer 331 and a solder mask layer 333, which layers are stacked on top of each other on the first electrically insulating layer 332. The LEDs 320 can be mounted in different ways on this stack. In this case, the LEDs 320 are soldered directly onto the second conductive layer 331 . Two through openings 340 for the electrical connectors 600 are provided through the PCB 300. The through openings 340 are provided with an electrical insulation layer 341 on their walls to avoid electrical contact between the electrical connectors 600 and the metal core substrate layer 310. This insulation layer 341 is typically an epoxy material.

The PCB 300 shown in Figure 7 is similar to the PCB 300 of Figure 6, but here a COB flip chip LED 320 is used as the light source. The COB flip chip LED 320 is soldered to the second electrically conductive layer 331 . The COB flip chip LED 320 is making a direct electrically insulated contact with the metal core substrate layer 310 for efficient heat dissipation from the COB flip chip LED 320 through the metal core substrate layer 310 to the swimming water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200.

The PCB 300 shown in Figure 8 is similar to the PCB 300 of Figure 7, but here the metal core substrate layer 310 is provided at the back side 312 with a protective coating 313 which must protect the metal core substrate layer 310 against the swimming water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200. The protective coating 313 has a high thermal conductivity coefficient for efficient heat dissipation through the protective coating 313.

The PCB 300 shown in Figure 9, comprises a ceramic substrate layer 310. In this embodiment, the associated electronic circuitry 330 comprises a first electrically conductive layer 331 , an electrically insulating layer 332, a second electrically conductive layer 331 and a solder mask layer 333, which layers are stacked on top of each other on the front side 311 of the ceramic substrate layer 310. No electrically insulating layer needs to be provided between the associated electronic circuitry 330 and the ceramic substrate layer 310, such as in the embodiments of Figures 6-8, since the ceramic substrate layer 310 itself is an electrical insulator. For the same reason, the two through openings 340 for the electrical connectors 600 do not require an electrical insulation layer 341 on their walls at the level of the ceramic substrate layer 310, but only at the level of the associated electronic circuitry 330.

In this embodiment the LED 320 is a COB flip chip LED 320 which is soldered to the second electrically conductive layer 331. The COB flip chip LED 320 is making direct contact with the ceramic substrate layer 310 for efficient heat dissipation from the COB flip chip LED 320 through the ceramic core substrate layer 310 to the swimming water in the internal volume 230 of the housing 200.
