Abstract

The present invention relates to an optical lighting device comprising at least one light emitting diode configured for emitting said light with a trajectory, the device being capable of modifying said trajectory since it comprises an optical element comprising two faces each having a plurality of preferably rectangular lenses, each lens of one face being aligned with a lens of the other face.

Claims

1. Optical lighting device comprising at least one light emitting diode (4) configured for emitting said light with a trajectory, characterised in that it further comprises a first optical element (1) comprising:

a first face (7) with a plurality of lenses;

a second face (8) with a plurality of lenses, where each lens of the second face (9′

) is aligned with a lens of the first face (9);

said first optical element (1) being configured for modifying the trajectory of the light emitted by the at least one light emitting diode (4).

2. Device according to claim 1, where the lenses (9, 9′

) have a substantially rectangular section base.

3. Device according to claim 1, further comprising a second optical element (2) configured for directing the light emitted by the at least one light emitting diode (4) to the first optical element (1).

4. Device according to claim 3, further comprising a support element (3) for the second optical element comprising holes for ventilation by convection.

5. Device according to claim 1, further comprising a heat distributing (6) element.
