LED lamp

A light emitting diode lamp comprising:

• a light emitting diode;
• a band-pass filter having a light cutoff function to cut off a light ray with a specific wavelength included in light rays emitted from the light emitting diode;
• and
• a light shield blocking one or more of the light rays emitted from the light emitting diode when the one or more of the light rays are incident on the band-pass filter at one or more incident angles of greater than a maximum incident angle up to which the band-pass filter is capable of exerting the light cutoff function, wherein
• the light shield is a shielding tube having a tubular shape,
• the light emitting diode is mounted to one end of the shielding tube while the band-pass filter is mounted to the other end of the shielding tube, and
• on an imaginary cross section including an optical axis of the light emitting diode, an angle of less than or equal to the maximum incident angle is formed between the optical axis and an imaginary straight line connecting a light emission center of the light emitting diode and an edge of the other end of the shielding tube.

A light emitting diode lamp comprising:

• a light emitting diode;
• a band-pass filter having a light cutoff function to cut off a light ray with a specific wavelength included in light rays emitted from the light emitting diode;
• a light shield blocking at least part of one or more of the light rays emitted from the light emitting diode when the one or more of the light rays are incident on the band-pass filter at one or more incident angles of greater than a maximum incident angle up to which the band pass filter is capable of exerting the light cutoff function;
• and
• a light angle adjuster allowing the unblocked rest of the one or more of the light rays to be incident on the band-pass filter at one or more incident angles of less than or equal to the maximum incident angle, wherein
• the light shield is a shielding tube having a tubular shape,
• the light angle adjuster is a lens,
• the light emitting diode is mounted to one end of the shielding tube while the band pass filter is mounted to the other end of the shielding tube, and
• the lens is mounted to an internal space of the shielding tube.

A light emitting diode lamp comprising:

• a light emitting diode which emits infrared light rays;
• a reflector including a reflective surface and an opening, the reflective surface being defined by a paraboloid of revolution including a cutout portion, the opening outwardly radiating light rays emitted from the light emitting diode therethrough after the light rays are reflected by the reflective surface;
• a heat sink holding the light emitting diode such that a position of a light emission center of the light emitting diode is matched with a position of a focal point of the paraboloid of revolution, the heat sink being combined with the reflector so as to include the cutout portion of the paraboloid of revolution defining the reflective surface;
• a band-pass filter covering the opening of the reflector, the band-pass filter including an incident side plane arranged orthogonally to a rotational axis of the paraboloid of revolution and the band-pass filter has a function to cut off visible light rays from the light emitting diode;
• and
• a light shielding member preventing the light emitting diode from being directly seen in a view from the opening side of the reflector at an angle parallel to the rotational axis of the paraboloid of revolution.
