Illumination Unit Consisting of Discharge Lamp, LEDs and Conversion Phosphors
First Claim
1. Illumination unit (1) having an adjustable colour location, having a housing (2), in which at least one primary light source and secondary light source is arranged, where the colour location of the two light sources is different and where the primary light source emits orange-yellow light of a given colour location having a given colour temperature and light colour, while the secondary light source (10) emits light of a different colour location, in particular having a different light colour or coloured light, and where the intensity of the secondary light source can be adjusted steplessly, and where the primary and secondary light source interact so that the colour location, in particular also the colour temperature and the light colour, of the radiation emitted by the illumination unit can differ from the primary light source, characterised in that the deflection means (4) located in the housing comprise a phosphor layer (12), comprising one or more conversion phosphors, and in that this phosphor layer can be excited by the secondary light source to the emission of radiation whose colour location differs from the colour locations of the primary and secondary light sources.
