Abstract

A plant light apparatus is provided. The plant light apparatus includes a main body, a planting region, and an emitting region. The main body includes a first plane and a second plane. The first plane is opposite to the second plane. The planting region is located on the first plane of the main body. The emitting region is a polygon located on the second plane of the main body. The plant light apparatus further includes a plurality of sets of main light sources, where the sets of the main light sources are respectively located on a plurality of corners of the emitting region, such that and an illuminance intensity of the planting region obtained from the main light sources is within a predefined luminance intensity interval.

Claims

1. A plant lighting apparatus, comprising:

a main body, having a first plane and a second plane, wherein the first plane is opposite to the second plane;

a planting region, located on the first plane of the main body;

an emitting region, being a polygon, located on the second plane of the main body; and

a plurality sets of main light sources, respectively disposed at a plurality of corners of the emitting region, such that an illuminance intensity of the planting region obtained from the plurality sets of main light sources is within a predetermined illuminance intensity interval.

2. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 1, further comprising:

at least one set of secondary light source, respectively disposed on at least one side of the emitting region.

3. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the main light sources are respectively disposed at all of the corners or a part of the corners of the emitting region.

4. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the polygon is a rectangle, and the main body further comprises an operation panel, the operation panel is adjacent to a first long side of the emitting region, the operation panel is not adjacent to a second long side of the emitting region, a space between the first long side and a first side of the second plane where the emitting region is located is wider than a space between the second long side and a second side of the plane where the emitting region is located, and the number of the two sets of the main light sources on the first long side is greater than the number of the two sets of the main light sources on the second long side.

5. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 4, wherein the two sets of the main light sources on the first long side respectively comprise four rows of light-emitting diode light sources.

6. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 4, wherein the two sets of the main light sources on the second long side respectively include three rows of light-emitting diode light sources.

7. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 4, wherein the number of the at least one secondary light source on the first long side is greater than the number of the at least one secondary light source on the second long side.

8. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein a center area of the emitting region is not configured with any light source.

9. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first plane and the second plane are spaced by 200 mm.

10. The plant lighting apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein an irradiation angle of the light sources is at least 100 degrees.
