Abstract:
A low-output microwave lighting system includes: a rectifier for rectifying general AC power inputted through a power source unit and outputting a DC voltage; a power factor compensator for compensating a power factor of the DC voltage inputted through the rectifier; and an inverter circuit unit for receiving the power factor-compensated DC voltage and outputting an AC voltage through frequency varying. 120 Hz of ripple generated at a low output can be reduce, and it is driven at a frequency of 20 KHz or higher, so that a flicker phenomenon does not occur and a volume and weight in facility can be reduced.
Abstract:
An electrodeless lighting system, including a waveguide having an outlet which is installed being protruded from the inside of a casing to the outside of the casing, for transmitting a microwave generated in the magnetron, a resonator fixed at the outer side of the outlet of the waveguide, for forming a resonant region in which the microwave is resonated, a bulb for generating light as plasma is generated by an electric field which is formed inside the resonator and a lighting promoting means positioned inside the bulb, for concentrating the electric field so that light is rapidly emitted when the microwave is applied, can achieve convenience of a user and increase reliability of lighting as the bulb rapidly emits light.
