DEVICE FOR IRRADIATING AN OBJECT, IN PARTICULAR HUMAN SKIN, WITH UV LIGHT
First Claim
1. A device for irradiating an object, in particular human skin, with UV light, having a UV light source and an irradiation head which contains imaging optics from which UV light is projected onto the object, wherein in addition to the UV light source a light source which emits visible light is provided, the light of which can be projected onto the object via the imaging optics of the irradiation head, wherein arranged in the irradiation head is a means which is preferably electronically controlled for adjustably setting the light distribution on the object, and that means can optionally or simultaneously be subjected to UV light from the UV light source and/or to visible light from the light source which emits visible light.

Abstract
The invention relates to a device for irradiating an object, in particular human skin, with UV light. Said device comprises a UV light source and an irradiation head containing imaging optics, UV light being projected from the irradiation head onto the object. A light source that emits visible light is provided in addition to the UV light source, the light from said additional source being projected onto the object by means of the imaging optics of the irradiation head. According to the invention, a preferably electronically controlled unit for the variable adjustment of the light distribution on the object is located in the irradiation head and UV light from the UV light source and/or visible light from the light source emitting visible light can be selectively or simultaneously supplied to said unit.
