Description

The present invention relates to an illuminated mirror.

Conventionally, illuminated mirrors that integrate a mirror and a lighting function are known. A conventional illuminated mirror is described, for example, in Patent Document 1. The illuminated mirror of Patent Document 1 has a housing and a mirror body provided on the front surface of the housing. Light emitted from an LED inside the housing is irradiated forward through a light-transmitting portion provided on the mirror body.

Patent No. 5936074 specification

However, in the illuminated mirror of Patent Document 1, the shape of the housing that houses the LED is rectangular when viewed from above. For this reason, the light emitted from the LED does not efficiently enter the light-transmitting portion. With this structure of Patent Document 1, it is thought to be difficult to ensure sufficient illuminance of the light irradiated to the user.

The present invention has been developed in consideration of these circumstances, and aims to provide a structure in an illuminated mirror that can improve the illuminance of the light irradiated to the user.

To solve the above problems, the present invention provides an illuminated mirror comprising a mirror body, a light source located on the rear side of the mirror body, and a reflector that reflects light emitted from the light source, the mirror body having a mirror surface and a light-transmitting window located in at least a part of the mirror body, the reflector being located on the rear side of the light-transmitting window and having a reflective surface inclined relative to the light-transmitting window, and the light emitted from the light source is reflected by the reflective surface, passes through the light-transmitting window, and is irradiated forward of the mirror body.

According to the present invention, the amount of light directed forward can be increased by using a reflective surface that is inclined relative to the translucent window. This can therefore improve the illuminance of the light irradiated to a user positioned in front of the mirrored portion.

A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1. Configuration of illuminated mirror
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an illuminated mirror 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the illuminated mirror 1. FIG. 3 is a front view of the illuminated mirror 1. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the illuminated mirror 1 taken along the line A-A in FIG. 3. This illuminated mirror 1 is a mirror with an integrated lighting function. The illuminated mirror 1 is installed on a wall in a bedroom, a washroom, or the like, and is used by the user to check their own appearance. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the illuminated mirror 1 has a mirror body 10, a housing 20, a plurality of light sources 30, and a power supply unit 40.

The mirror body 10 is a plate-shaped component that covers the front surface of the illuminated mirror 1. The mirror body 10 is formed from a colorless, transparent, rectangular glass plate 11. However, the shape of the mirror body 10 may be a shape other than rectangular (e.g., elliptical). The mirror body 10 has a mirror surface portion 12 that functions as a mirror, and a pair of translucent windows 13 that transmit light. The mirror surface portion 12 is located in the center of the mirror body 10 in the left-right direction. The pair of translucent windows 13 are located on the left and right sides of the mirror surface portion 12.

Figure 5 is a partial cross-sectional view of the mirror body 10 near the boundary between the mirror surface 12 and the light-transmitting window 13. As shown in Figure 5, in the mirror surface 12 of the mirror body 10, a reflective film 14 is formed on the back surface of the glass plate 11. For example, silver plating is used for the reflective film 14. Light incident from the front is reflected by the reflective film 14 with a high reflectance. Therefore, the mirror body 10 can reflect the image of a user positioned in front on the mirror surface 12.

The pair of translucent windows 13 are portions for transmitting light emitted from a light source 30 (described later) forward. In the translucent windows 13, no reflective film 14 is formed on the rear surface of the glass plate 11. When manufacturing the mirror body 10, the reflective film 14 is formed on the entire rear surface of the glass plate 11, and then the portion corresponding to the translucent windows 13 is subjected to sandblasting (roughening). This removes the reflective film 14 from that portion, and roughens that portion of the rear surface of the glass plate 11.

In addition, in this embodiment, the roughened back surface of the glass plate 11 is covered with a diffusing material 15. The diffusing material 15 is a paint that diffuses and transmits light. Light that passes through the light-transmitting window 13 is diffused by the diffusing material 15 and the roughened back surface. For this reason, a user of the illuminated mirror 1 can be irradiated with diffused light through the light-transmitting window 13, but cannot see the inside of the housing 20 through the light-transmitting window 13.

The housing 20 is a component for housing multiple light sources 30 and a power supply unit 40. The housing 20 is located on the rear side of the mirror body 10. As shown in Figures 2 and 4, the housing 20 has an attachment portion 21 and a pair of light source housing portions 22.

The mounting portion 21 is located on the back side of the mirror portion 12. The mounting portion 21 has a plurality of fixing holes 211. The housing 20 is fixed to the wall surface by fastening bolts to the wall surface through these fixing holes 211. The mounting portion 21 also has a beam portion 212 that has a U-shaped cross section and extends in the left-right direction. The mirror body 10 is supported by the beam portion 212 and is fixed to the housing 20 by bolts. A power supply unit 40 is also housed in a first space 21S inside the mounting portion 21.

However, the mounting portion 21 does not necessarily have to have a beam portion 212. Also, the method of fixing the mirror body 10 to the housing 20 does not necessarily have to be bolt fixing. For example, the mirror body 10 may be fixed to the housing 20 by fusion bonding.

The pair of light source housing sections 22 are located on the left and right sides of the mounting section 21. That is, the pair of light source housing sections 22 are located on the back side of the translucent window 13. The light source 30 is housed in the second space 22S inside the light source housing section 22. The inner surface of the light source housing section 22 is covered with a reflective material. For example, a white paint is used as the reflective material. However, a reflective sheet may be attached instead of the paint. The light emitted from the light source 30 is reflected by the reflective material. This increases the amount of light irradiated forward from the translucent window 13.

In this illuminated mirror 1, only the inner surface of the light source housing 22 provided at the left and right ends of the housing 20 is covered with a reflective material, rather than the entire inner surface of the housing 20. This reduces the amount of reflective material used.

The light source 30 is disposed inside the light source housing section 22. In this embodiment, two light sources 30 are disposed in one light source housing section 22. However, the number of light sources 30 disposed in one light source housing section 22 may be one, or may be three or more. In this embodiment, a tape light is used as the light source 30. A tape light is a tape-shaped substrate on which LEDs are mounted at equal intervals and the outside is covered with a flexible resin cover. The tape light can be cut to the required length for use. In addition, since it does not have a hard case with high thermal conductivity, the light source 30 itself can be made thin. It is preferable to use an LED, which is a light-emitting element, that has high color rendering properties.

The housing 20 has a partition wall 23 that separates the first space 21S of the mounting section 21 from the second space 22S of the light source storage section 22. The light source 30 is attached to the surface of this partition wall 23 facing the second space 22S. When the light source 30 is attached to the partition wall 23, multiple LEDs (light-emitting elements) are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. Each LED emits light toward the second space 22S. By arranging multiple LEDs in the vertical direction in this way, it is possible to reduce unevenness in illuminance in the vertical direction while reducing the dimension of the light source 30 in the depth direction.

As shown in FIG. 4, in this embodiment, the width of the light source housing 22 in the left-right direction is slightly wider than the width of the translucent window 13 in the left-right direction. The light source 30 is disposed slightly inside the translucent window 13 in the left-right direction. In other words, the light source 30 is disposed on the back side of the mirror surface 12. In this way, the shadow of the light source 30 is unlikely to be cast on the translucent window 13. This improves the design of the illuminated mirror 1 and prevents unevenness in the light irradiated forward due to the shadow of the light source 30 itself.

The power supply device 40 is a device equipped with an electric circuit for supplying current to the light source 30. The power supply device 40 is electrically connected to a plurality of light sources 30. The power supply device 40 is also electrically connected to a plug 41 that can be inserted into a power outlet. When the plug 41 is inserted into the power outlet, current is supplied to the light source 30 via the power supply device 40. This causes each LED of the light source 30 to emit light. However, the light source 30 may also be connected directly to the plug 41 without going through the power supply device 40.

Figure 6 is a partial cross-sectional view of the illuminated mirror 1 near the light source housing section 22. As described above, in this embodiment, two light sources 30 are arranged in one light source housing section 22. One of the two light sources 30 is fixed to the housing 20 in a position perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction. Hereinafter, this light source 30 is referred to as the "first light source 31." The other of the two light sources 30 is located behind the first light source 31 and is fixed to the housing 20 in a position facing diagonally forward. Hereinafter, this light source 30 is referred to as the "second light source 32."

The first light source 31 emits light in a direction perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction. That is, the first light source 31 housed in the left light source housing section 22 emits light to the left. Also, the first light source 31 housed in the right light source housing section 22 emits light to the right. The second light source 32 emits light diagonally forward. That is, the second light source 32 housed in the left light source housing section 22 emits light diagonally to the left and forward. Also, the second light source 32 housed in the right light source housing section 22 emits light diagonally to the right and forward.

The housing 20 has a reflector 24 that reflects light emitted from the first light source 31 and the second light source 32. The reflector 24 is located on the back side of the light-transmitting window 13. As shown in FIG. 6, the reflector 24 has a reflecting surface 241 that is inclined with respect to the light-transmitting window 13 when viewed from above. The reflecting surface may be a mirror surface, or may be a surface that reflects while scattering light. In this embodiment, a portion of the inner surface of the light source housing 22 serves as the reflecting surface 241. Therefore, the reflecting surface 241 is covered with the above-mentioned reflective material. However, the reflector 24 may be provided separately from the housing 20.

The reflecting surface 241 in this embodiment is a flat surface. That is, the shape of the reflecting surface 241 when viewed from above is linear. The inclination angle θ of the reflecting surface 241 with respect to the light-transmitting window 13 is approximately 45°. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, the light emitted from the light source 30 is reflected by the reflecting surface 241 and enters the light-transmitting window 13. Then, the light diffused on the back surface of the light-transmitting window 13 passes through the light-transmitting window 13 and is irradiated forward of the mirror body 10.

In this way, the illuminated mirror 1 of this embodiment has a reflective surface 241 that is inclined relative to the light-transmitting window 13. This increases the amount of light that travels forward. This therefore increases the illuminance of the light that is irradiated to a user positioned in front of the mirrored portion 12. As a result, the user's figure can be clearly reflected on the mirrored portion 12.

If the inclination angle θ of the reflective surface 241 relative to the translucent window 13 is too small or too large, the amount of reflected light traveling forward decreases. In order to irradiate sufficient light forward of the mirror body 10, it is desirable that the inclination angle θ of the reflective surface 241 relative to the translucent window 13 be 30° or more and 65° or less. It is even more desirable that the inclination angle θ be 40° or more and 60° or less.

In addition, in order to increase the amount of light heading toward the center in the left-right direction (toward the mirror section 12), the inclination angle θ of the reflective surface 241 with respect to the translucent window 13 may be made slightly larger than 45°. In this way, the illuminance of the light irradiated to the user positioned in front of the mirror section 12 can be further improved. Conversely, in order to prevent the amount of light heading toward the center in the left-right direction (toward the mirror section 12) from becoming excessively large, the inclination angle θ of the reflective surface 241 with respect to the translucent window 13 may be made slightly smaller than 45°. In this way, it is possible to reduce the dazzle felt by the user positioned in front of the mirror section 12.

In addition, in the illuminated mirror 1 of this embodiment, the back surface of the translucent window 13 is roughened. This allows the light reflected by the reflective surface 241 to be diffused and projected forward. The back surface of the translucent window 13 is also covered with a diffusing material 15. This allows the light passing through the translucent window 13 to be further diffused. As a result, the user can be irradiated with sufficiently diffused and uniform light. In this way, shadows are less likely to appear on the user's face, allowing the user to more clearly see their own reflection in the mirror portion 12.

In addition, in the illuminated mirror 1 of this embodiment, the light-transmitting window 13 extends over a wide range from the upper end to the lower end of the mirror body 10. By making the light-transmitting window 13 have a large area in this way, the brightness of the light-transmitting window 13 when viewed from the front can be reduced. Therefore, the illuminance of the light can be sufficiently ensured while preventing the user from feeling dazzled.

In addition, in the illuminated mirror 1 of this embodiment, two light sources 30 are arranged in one light source housing 22. This further increases the illuminance of the light irradiated to the user. Furthermore, the second light source 32, which is one of the two light sources 30, is arranged diagonally in the left-right direction. In this way, the depth of the illuminated mirror 1 can be reduced compared to when both light sources 30 are arranged facing in the left-right direction.

2. Modifications
Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. Various modified examples will be described below, focusing on the differences from the above embodiment.

<2-1. First modified example>
Fig. 7 is a partial cross-sectional view of the illuminated mirror 1 according to the first modified example. The illuminated mirror 1 in Fig. 7 differs from the above embodiment in that the reflecting surface 241 is not a flat surface but a curved surface. In the example in Fig. 7, the reflecting surface 241 is inclined with respect to the light-transmitting window 13 and is a concave curved surface with a center of curvature forward of the reflector 24. In this way, the light reflected by the reflecting surface 241 converges as it travels forward. This makes it possible to particularly improve the illuminance of a specific area in front of the mirror body 10. The "inclined reflecting surface" in the present invention includes such a curved surface.

<2-2. Second Modified Example>
Fig. 8 is a partial cross-sectional view of the illuminated mirror 1 according to the second modification. The illuminated mirror 1 of Fig. 8 differs from the above embodiment in that the number of light sources 30 accommodated in one light source accommodation section 22 is one. In the example of Fig. 8, only the first light source 31 that emits light in a direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction is arranged in the light source accommodation section 22. When sufficient illuminance can be obtained with only the first light source 31, the second light source 32 may be omitted in this way. Alternatively, the first light source 31 may be omitted and only the second light source 32 may be arranged. In addition, the depth of the housing 20 may be made thinner by reducing the number of light sources 30.

<2-3. Third Modified Example>
9 is a front view of the illuminated mirror 1 according to the third modified example. The illuminated mirror 1 of FIG. 9 differs from the above embodiment in the structure of the light-transmitting window 13. In the example of FIG. 9, the light-transmitting window 13 includes a light-transmitting portion 131 that transmits light and a light-shielding portion 132 that blocks light. For example, the reflective film 14 of the mirror surface portion 12 may be used for the light-shielding portion 132. That is, when the mirror body 10 is manufactured, sandblasting is performed only on the light-transmitting portion 131 of the light-transmitting window 13, and the reflective film 14 is left on the light-shielding portion 132. In this way, the light-transmitting window 13 can be designed using the light-transmitting portion 131 and the light-shielding portion 132.

However, if the area ratio of the light-shielding portion 132 is too large, the illuminance of the light irradiated to the user will be insufficient. According to JIS Z 9110:2010, the illuminance (vertical illuminance for a person) required for a wash mirror in a lodging facility or the like is 500 lx. It is desirable to set the area ratio of the light-transmitting portion 131 and the light-shielding portion 132 so as to satisfy this illuminance requirement at a position 300 to 450 mm away from the front surface of the mirror body 10. For example, it is desirable for the area ratio of the light-transmitting portion 131 in the light-transmitting window 13 to be 75% or more.

<2-4. Fourth Modified Example>
Fig. 10 is a front view of the illuminated mirror 1 according to the fourth modified example. In the illuminated mirror 1 of the above embodiment, the light source 30 is switched ON/OFF by inserting and removing the plug 41 into the power outlet. In contrast, the illuminated mirror 1 of Fig. 10 has a switch 50 for switching the light source 30 ON/OFF, in addition to the plug 41. The switch 50 is a capacitance type switch, and is provided on the back surface of the mirror surface 12 of the mirror body 10. The user can operate the switch 50 by touching the surface of the mirror body 10. In this way, the light source 30 can be switched ON/OFF while the plug 41 is connected to the outlet.

However, in this case, the user's fingers frequently come into contact with the surface of the mirror body 10, making it easy for fingerprints to be left on it. Therefore, in order to prevent fingerprints from being left on the surface, the switch 50 portion of the surface of the mirror body 10 may be roughened. For example, sandblasting may be used for the roughening process.

<2-5. Fifth Modified Example>
FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view of an illuminated mirror 1 according to a fifth modified example. The illuminated mirror 1 of FIG. 11 differs from the above embodiment in that it has a magnet function. Specifically, the illuminated mirror 1 of FIG. 11 has a magnet attraction plate 60. The magnet attraction plate 60 is made of a magnetic material (e.g., iron) that generates an attractive force between the magnet and the magnet. The magnet attraction plate 60 is disposed on the back surface of the mirror surface 12 of the mirror body 10. This allows the magnet to be attracted to the surface of the mirror surface 12. In addition, if the magnet attraction plate 60 is adhered to the back surface of the mirror surface 12, it is possible to prevent glass fragments from scattering even if the mirror body 10 is damaged.

<2-6. Other Modifications>
In the above embodiment, the rear surface of the light-transmitting window 13 is roughened by sandblasting. However, the rear surface of the light-transmitting window 13 may be roughened by a surface roughening process other than sandblasting.

In the above embodiment, the back surface of the light-transmitting window 13 is roughened and coated with the diffusion material 15. However, either the roughening or the diffusion material 15 may be omitted.

The illuminated mirror 1 may also have a dimming function that adjusts the amount of light emitted from the light source 30. In that case, the control board for dimming may be placed inside the mounting portion 21 of the housing 20. With the dimming function, the user can adjust the amount of light emitted from the light source 30 to an optimal amount according to the environment and purpose. Therefore, the illuminance of the light irradiated to the user can also be further optimized.

The illuminated mirror 1 may also have a color-adjusting function for adjusting the color of the light emitted from the light source 30. In that case, the control board for adjusting the color may be disposed within the mounting portion 21 of the housing 20. With the color-adjusting function, the user can adjust the color of the light emitted from the light source 30 to the optimal color according to the environment and purpose. Therefore, the color of the light irradiated to the user can also be further optimized.

In the above embodiment, a tape light was used as the light source 30. However, the "light source" in the present invention may be a light source other than a tape light. In the above embodiment, an LED was used as the light-emitting element of the light source 30. However, the light-emitting element used in the light source 30 is not limited to an LED, and may be anything that emits light. For example, an incandescent light bulb or a fluorescent lamp may be used instead of an LED.

A heater may also be provided on the back surface of the mirror surface 12 of the mirror body 10. This can warm the mirror body 10 and prevent condensation on the mirror surface 12. By driving the heater, the air around the user located in front of the illuminated mirror 1 can also be warmed.

A speaker may also be provided on the back surface of the mirror surface 12 of the mirror body 10. This allows the mirror body 10 to vibrate and generate sound. When using the lighted mirror 1 to get dressed, the user can enjoy the music playing from the front of the mirror body 10 without being aware of the presence of the speaker.

Also, a part of the mirror surface 12 of the mirror body 10 may be provided with an image display function. Specifically, a part of the reflective film 14 on the back surface of the mirror surface 12 may be removed, and a light-emitting display device such as a tablet or LED dot panel may be installed in that part.

In the above embodiment, a pair of light-transmitting windows 13 are provided on the left and right sides of the mirror surface 12. However, the positions of the light-transmitting windows 13 do not necessarily have to be on the left and right sides of the mirror surface 12. For example, the light-transmitting windows 13 may be provided on the upper and lower sides of the mirror surface 12. The light-transmitting windows 13 may be provided in three locations on the left, right, and upper sides of the mirror surface 12. Alternatively, the light-transmitting windows 13 may be provided in four locations on the left, right, upper, and lower sides of the mirror surface 12. In other words, it is sufficient that the light-transmitting windows 13 are provided in at least a part of the mirror body 10. It is sufficient that the mirror body 10 has at least one light-transmitting window 13.

In addition, the detailed shapes of each component of the illuminated mirror 1 may be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

Furthermore, the elements that appear in the above embodiments and variations may be selected as appropriate to the extent that no contradictions arise.
