Optical system for light emitting diodes
First Claim
1. An optical system for a light emitting diode (13) which is incorporated in a fixed manner on an optical axis (14) of a carrier lens (12), said carrier lens (12) consisting of a front portion (18) with an outer transverse surface (25) formed concave towards emitted light, and for incorporating the diode (13), a longitudinal portion (19) with an outer longitudinal surface (22), wherein said outer longitudinal surface (22) is formed concave towards the diode (13) and is coaxial to the optical axis (14) of the carrier lens and said concave transverse surface (25) having a further outer transverse surface (24) circumscribed thereto characterised in that said outer longitudinal surface (22) has an ellipsoidal form and said further outer transverse surface (24) has a curved form.

Abstract
The diode is incorporated in a fixed manner on the optical axis of a carrier lens. The carrier lens consists of a front portion with an outer transverse surface, formed concave towards the emitted light, and a longitudinal portion for incorporating he diode. The longitudinal portion has its outer longitudinal surface formed concave towards the diode. The concave transverse surface is surrounded by a further outer transverse system. The concave longitudinal surface is arranged to reflect the diode-emitted light rays towards the further outer transverse surface, which is arranged to transmit the light rays to the outside in a longitudinal direction.
