DE102007021123A1 - Illuminating device for interior i.e. drawer of furniture, has LED-light source, power source and release switch arranged in circuit, and holding clip for attaching housing at wall of cavity - Google Patents

Abstract

The device has an LED light source, a release switch e.g. light-controlled or movement-controlled switch, a network-independent power source (8) e.g. battery or accumulator, and a holding clip (6) e.g. elastic clip, for attaching a housing (7) in a wall of a cavity. The LED-light source, power source and the release switch are arranged in a circuit, and a mirror is arranged in a housing of a holder adjacent to the light source.

Description

The The invention relates to a lighting device for interiors of furniture, shafts and other closed, not connected to the public network Cavities.

There Furniture in Apartments often stand in low-lit places, one has for the still Less light from the surrounding interior spaces of this furniture lighting built in, over Cable from a public Power fed. These furniture lighting devices consist of in the furniture Lamps to be screwed in and manually operated or through the furniture doors Contacts operated Switches that turn on and off the lighting. These furniture lighting devices They are expensive to produce because they are rarely in series, but mostly crafted and installed by hand. They are corresponding expensive. You can even find them for lighting drawers not, because here a cable connector would be agile to the drawers to be able to take out and because the electricity feeding Cables could easily get tangled and jammed.

The Invention avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. It is the object of the invention, also and especially for lighting of drawers and others not to the public electrical energy supplying network connected cavities suitable device to wirelessly gets their electrical energy, with little Effort to produce and therefore is cheap to buy, the wirelessly over long periods works and is easy to assemble.

The Lighting device according to the invention is characterized by the fact that it consists of an LED light source, a Trigger switch, a network independent Power source (battery, accumulator) and a housing as well a holder for the attachment of the housing on a wall of furniture or other cavity exists.

These Lighting device works without cable, is also easy in all possible cavities like furniture drawers einbaubar or even at the side wall parts attachable and brings Light where it most needed needed becomes. Because LED light sources consume very little electrical energy and drawers moreover little opened A battery capacity will last for months.

Advantageous in this lighting device it is when the trigger switch a light-controlled or a motion-controlled switch. As soon as when mounting a drawer or opening it to a cavity leading Door light from the environment of the furniture or the cavity falls on the light-controlled switch, switches this the lighting device. Once the drawer again is closed and therefore no more light from the environment in the Drawer falls, this switch turns the light off again.

As well well, the switch can be a motion controlled switch. The movement of winding a drawer or opening a furniture door then releases the switching of the light off, a timer can then effect the switch-off.

at This lighting device, the holder can be attached to the housing be resilient clip. Then, the lighting device is simple to the back wall a drawer can be clamped.

As well well, the holder may be a magnet attached to the case, which is to be attached to a counter magnet, which is attached to a furniture part with the help of an adhesive or an attached or attached Feather is attached.

A simple solution the turning off of the lighting device can be achieve that the LED light source, the power source (battery or accumulator) and the release switch in a circuit comprising a timer, which after a fixed or adjustable time interval the current in the circuit interrupts.

Expedient for an increase in the luminous efficacy in this lighting device it is that on the housing next to the LED light source is a mirror.

The Lighting device according to the invention can with an induction coil and circuit for recharging the off-grid power source inductively transmitted equipped with electrical energy be to the off-grid Power source not out of the case for one Exchange or reload.

The Essence of the invention is described below with reference to in the drawing schematically illustrated embodiments explained in more detail. Show it:

1 a section through a drawer.

2 a side view of a furniture lamp with retaining clip.

3 a side view of a furniture light with holding magnet.

4 the switching of the furniture light.

In the 1 Drawer shown has a bottom 1 , a front panel 2 with handle 3 and a back front 4 on. On the back 4 is the furniture light 5 attached and is by the resilient retaining clip 6 held.

In the 2 illustrated furniture light 5 has a housing 7 on, in which the power source 8th is stored in the form of a battery. Below comes the glowing part 9 an LED from the housing 7 out. On the back wall 10 of the housing 7 is the resilient retaining clip 6 attached, with the furniture light 5 is attached to the drawer. At the front 11 of the housing 7 is a sensor 12 attached, which switches the LED in its light-emitting operating position. Next to the bottom of the case 6 the luminous head coming out of the furniture light 9 of the LED are reflective surfaces 13 arranged that from the head 9 throw the light emitted by the LED into the drawer.

The furniture lamp of the 3 indicates for its attachment to the back 4 the drawer magnets 14 on,

In the 4 shown circuit is a series circuit in which the power source 8th , the sensor 12 , the LED 9 , a timer 15 for the shutdown and a circuit 16 are connected in series for the restoration of the luminosity.
