Patent

CA 2411538

A nonimaging beam combiner and collimator. The nonimaging beam combiner and collimator can include at least two light sources (110, 130) that emit light of the same wavelength (142, 144) through a focus point (150) and a nonimaging element (160) that receives the light of the same wavelength after the focus point and collimates the light at the same wavelength through the atmosphere. The at least two light sources (110, 130) can include fiber light sources, optical fibers, gradient index lenses, fiber lasers or laser diodes. The nonimaging element (160) can include an input surface (165), a paraboloid surface located adjacent to the input surface, a conical surface located adjacent to the paraboloid surface, and an ellipsoid surface located adjacent to the conical surface and located on an opposite side of the nonimaging element (160) from the input surface (165). The paraboloid surface can include a total internal reflection surface.

L'invention concerne un collimateur et un combinateur sans formation d'images. Lesdits collimateur et combinateur peuvent comprendre au moins deux sources de lumière (110, 130) qui émettent une lumière de même longueur d'onde (142, 144) à travers une zone de focalisation (150), et un élément exempt de formation d'images (160) qui reçoit la lumière de même longueur d'onde après la zone de focalisation et collimate cette lumière à travers l'atmosphère. Les deux sources de lumières (110, 130) peuvent comprendre des sources de lumière à fibre, des fibres optiques, des lentilles à gradient d'indices, des lasers à fibre ou des diodes laser. L'élément exempt de formation d'images (160) peut comporter une surface d'entrée (165), une surface parabolique adjacente à la surface d'entrée, une surface conique adjacente à la surface parabolique, et une surface ellipsoïde adjacente à la surface conique et située sur un côté opposé de l'élément exempt de formation d'images (160) à partir de la surface d'entrée (165). La surface parabolique peut être pourvue d'une surface de réflexion interne complète.
