The invention relates to a method for operating a clocked electronic power converter having an output power range for operating a connectable load, the output power range resulting from a permissible output voltage range and a permissible output current range, and the power converter having a switch, an inductance and an on-off keying device. The method is characterised by the following steps: - in a first mode of operation, which ranges from the maximum output current of the power converter of 100% to a reduced output current, setting the on-off keying device to a burst duty cycle of 100%, and adjusting the converter clock frequency or the switch-on time period of the switch, in order to increase or to reduce the output current of the power converter for the load, - in a second mode of operation, which ranges from the reduced output current to the minimum output current, maintaining the converter clock frequency or a minimum switch-on time period of the switch and setting the burst duty cycle, in order to change the working point and thereby to further reduce the output current of the clocked converter for the load. An on-off keying burst frequency is reduced from a burst duty cycle lying in the range from 40% to 20%, with a decreasing burst duty cycle, in order to keep a ripple of the output current in a required range, and the burst frequency at the burst duty cycle lying in the range from 40% to 20%, is higher by the factor 2 to 40, preferably by the factor 3 to 15, than the burst frequency at the minimum duty cycle.

The invention relates to a device (10) for sterilising a fluid flowing therethrough by means of UV radiation (UV reactor), said device comprising a container (20) having an inlet (22) for receiving the fluid and having an outlet (24) for discharging the fluid from the container (20), a variable or adjustable irradiation zone (12) for irradiating the fluid with UV radiation being provided within said container (20). The irradiation zone (12) is designed as a gap which extends between two oppositely arranged reactor walls (14, 26) and though which the fluid flows. The mutual distance (D) between the reactor walls (14, 26), and thus also the gap size (D) of the gap, can be changed by designing at least one reactor wall (14) to be movable. For example, the movable reactor wall (14) is a wall of a displaceable body (9) that is located inside the container (20) or projects into the container. By adjusting the distance between the reactor walls (14, 26) in the region of the irradiation zone (12) that is in the form of a gap, and thus the layer thickness (D) of the fluid flowing through the gap, the efficiency of the operation of the UV reactor (10) is optimised with different scattering and absorption properties of the fluid. Optionally, the penetration depth of the radiation is detected using a sensor (7) and the gap size (D) is adjusted on the basis of the sensor signal.

The device (1) also comprises a plurality of LEDs (14) which are each designed to emit light having wavelengths in the range of UV radiation, preferably UVC radiation. The LEDs (14) are designed to irradiate the fluid washing over or around the curved surface (13) of the body (8) with the UV radiation, preferably the UVC radiation, of the LEDs (14).

The optical system (101) may include a detector (126) to detect light. The optical component (104) may include a plurality of receive optical elements (128-1... 128-8), each associated with a respective segment. A receive optical element may be disposed relative to the associated segment in such a way that a direct reflection (114r) of the emitted light deflected by the segment impinges onto that receive optical element. The light detection may be understood as a tracking of a scanned horizontal and vertical angle range through an optical tracking filter to increase the signal- to-noise ratio. The optical component may be implemented as a hard disk drive including a rotating disk onto which light emitted by a light source may be directed. The LIDAR system may be part of a vehicle or of a smart farming or of an indoor monitoring system.

A tracking system for tracking objects within a field of view is disclosed. The field of view may include a first zone and an adjacent zone of interest where at least two gates are associated with respective sides of the first zone within the field of view. The first camera is configured to detect when an object crosses one of the at least two gates and track the object throughout the first zone and the zone of interest. The tracking system is configured to generate a first event message in response to the object being tracked from one of the gates into the zone of interest and subsequently leaving the first zone through a dedicated gate of the at least two gates.
The invention relates to a semiconductor headlamp (10) for motor vehicles, comprising a lamp body (1) along a longitudinal axis (X). Said lamp body comprises a rear main portion with a base (20) and heat sink (60) and a support element (50) mounted thereon with semiconductor light sources (70) arranged thereon. A front portion has a light-permeable housing (40). A driver circuit (55) supplies the light sources with electrical power so that the lamp emits light through the light-permeable housing. The lamp can be designed as a retrofit lamp and be of the type H7, H8, H9, H11 or H16. The power converted into light generates, in the case of a 12 V H7 lamp for example, a luminous flux of at least 1500 lumens +/- 10% if the light sources are supplied with a test voltage of 13.2 volts. The lamp here does not extend spatially beyond an envelope specified in the ECE standard for an H7 type lamp. An optimal design with efficient passive heat transfer in a tight space nevertheless permits a high luminous flux.

A semiconductor headlight lamp (10) for a motor vehicle is proposed, the lamp having a rear base portion, e.g. with a heat sink (60) and a lamp base (20) and a front portion with a light-permeable housing (40) and reflector optics (39) extending in combination along a longitudinal axis (X). A support element (50) is fitted to the rear base portion, and semiconductor light sources (70) provided thereon emit light onto the reflector optics which comprise a first reflector-optics portion (32) and a second reflector-optics portion (36). The first reflector-optics portion can reflect the light, emitted by the semiconductor light sources (70), towards the second reflector-optics portion. The second reflector-optics portion can reflect the light reflected by the first reflector-optics portion again and emit it through the light-permeable housing. The first reflector-optics portion (32) comprises first reflective surfaces (35a – 35e), which extend annularly around the longitudinal axis (X). The second reflector-optics portion (36) can thereby be irradiated uniformly and can achieve optimal emission characteristics for the lamp.

A reflector optics system (300) for a motor vehicle headlight lamp is proposed, the system having a reflector body (30) that is symmetrical about a longitudinal axis (X), said body having a first reflector-optics portion (32) with a substantially concave form. The system also has a second reflector-optics portion (36) along the longitudinal axis. The first reflector-optics portion (32) faces the second reflector-optics portion (36) and both portions have a plurality of first and second reflective surfaces (35a-35e; 37a-37e) respectively. The second reflective surfaces have a direct spatial light-receiving relationship with the first reflective surfaces. This relationship of the reflective surfaces achieves a uniform distribution of the light that is emitted towards the reflector optics (39) and is incident on the second reflector-optics portion (36). Thus, heat spikes in this area are reduced. The second reflective surfaces (37a-37e) ensure high reflectivity, a uniform distribution of the light emission, a reduction in production costs and a design for the corresponding lamp that conforms to ECE standards, and also provide an option for application in retrofit vehicle headlight lamps.
