Spotlight with an adjustable angle of radiation and with an aspherical front lens
First Claim
1. A spotlight for illuminating an area with an adjustable angle of radiation, wherein modification of the angle of radiation is achieved in a manner other than shading the beam path with a screen or mask, said spotlight comprisingan interior light source (4), a first lens (2) that is a front lens of the spotlight, wherein the first lens (2) is an aspherical lens, a reflector (5) associated with the light source (4), and a second lens (6) placed in a light-beam path between the light source (4) and the first lens (2), whereby the reflector (5), the light source (4), and the second lens (6) are mounted as an optical unit that is movable along an optical axis of the spotlight relative to the first lens (2).

28. A spotlight for illuminating an area with an adjustable angle of radiation, wherein modification of the angle of radiation is achieved in a manner other than shading the beam path with a screen or mask, said spotlight comprising an interior light source (4) and a first lens (2) that is a front lens of the spotlight, wherein the first lens (2) is an aspherical lens and a surface of the first lens (2) facing in a direction of radiation of the spotlight, as seen from a meridional section of the first lens, has a shape of a hyperbolic section, and a vertex of a hyperbola of the hyperbolic section lies on an optical axis of the spotlight, the hyperbola fitting the following equation:
-
where k is a value ranging from −
3.0 to −
1.1 and r is a value ranging from 40 mm to 100 mm.
