Abstract

The light emitting device comprises: a bowl-shaped reflector; a point light source; and a combined lens provided on the light axis of the point light source. And the combined lens has: a convex lens part having a focal point coinciding with the point light source, refracting center light around the light axis into parallel light; and a concave lens part provided around the convex lens part, and refracting and diffusing light having an angle with the light axis larger than an angle between the center light and the light axis so as to increase the angle with the light axis. A virtual focal point of the light refracted and diffused with the concave lens part coincides with the focal point of the paraboloid of revolution.
