Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0005080A1] A light projection system for a spotlight lantern, comprising a grid filament lamp and a rear reflector, wherein the grid filament (11) is located to extend axially along the optical axis of the reflector (12). The rear reflector (12) and/or a frontal reflector (13) used in conjunction therewith is preferably regularly or irregularly facetted in such a manner that each facet produces a patch of light just filling the aperture of a gate, shaping pattern or iris (15). The system shows remarkably improved efficiency compared to known systems having a grid filament disposed transverse to the optical axis.
