DE102010007285A1 - Standing desk has desk top and base frame formed of translucent and light-conducting materials, where components of standing desk have recesses which receive light sources - Google Patents

Abstract

The standing desk has a desk top (4) and a base frame formed of translucent and light-conducting materials. The components of the standing desk have recesses which receive the light sources. The light sources radiate the light along the plate cross-section. The light sources are surrounded by reflectors and are equipped with light bundled lens. The logo and advertising graphic are introduced in the elements of the standing desk by beam technology.

Description

The invention relates to a bar table with lighting. The lighting serves the purpose of emphasizing, among other things, advertising claims more clearly.

In the known systems, the advertising statement is illuminated as much by the direct illumination from the outside as their neighboring environment. This weaken the advertising effect.

It is known a bar table with a columnar base and a table top thereon, in which the stand can be used for advertising purposes ( EP 0 504 770 A1 ). This bar table is a bar table made of polypropylene or a transparent plastic material. The printed on the periphery advertising space is illuminated by a light source, which is mounted under the table top in the region of a stiffening device or from a recess of the table top. A disadvantage of this bar table, however, that the element surfaces and the environment of the bar table are very strongly lit, so that the actual effect, the representation of the advertising space is solved only insufficient.

task

The aim of the invention is to emphasize only the actual advertising presentation.

The above object is achieved with regard to the bar table by the features of claim 1 to 3. Thereafter, a bar table of the type in question is equipped and developed such that the translucent and light-conducting components of the bar table have recesses which receive the light sources and radiate the light rays along the plate cross-sections and on the adjacent plate cross-sections.

According to the invention, it has been recognized that the light beams mounted in a recess of a light-conducting component and directed in the longitudinal direction then propagate in a straight line, as long as no irregularities occur which would deflect the beams. If the light strikes the surface of an object, it is reflected depending on the surface properties, i. E. H. distracted from his previous direction. With surface roughnesses that are small compared to the light waves, reflection occurs. If the surface roughnesses of the photoconductive member are larger, the incident light becomes diffused, i. H. The surface looks dull and not reflective. In the diffuse reflection, the light is not thrown back in a ray, but scattered on all sides. For large roughness, such. B. by the laser of a logo or advertising on the surface of the photoconductive member or on all body edges, the light is scattered by diffraction in all directions and glows brightly. This is a very effective advertising effect, since an inserted logo or advertising medium shines in bright light and the environment is only diffused. It is clearly the advertising effectiveness of the logo or the advertising medium in the foreground.

The following special features are shown in the invention.

• – eine Tischplatte, gebildet durch mindestens eine Ausnehmung auf der Unterseite der Tischplatte, das im Bereich der Ausnehmung die Lichtquelle angeordnet ist,
• – die Lichtquellen, die Lichtstrahlen längs zu den Plattenquerschnitten abstrahlen,
• – die Lichtquellen, die Lichtstrahlen auf angrenzende Plattenquerschnitte abstrahlen,
• – Tischplatte und Gestell aus transparenten Kunststoffmaterial gebildet sind, das im sichtbaren Bereich eine Werbegraphik und/oder Logo angeordnet ist,

die Tischplatte und die Platten steckbar, schraubbar oder durch Kleben miteinander verbindbar gegenüber den Platten festlegbar sind.The structure is shown as follows:

• A table top, formed by at least one recess on the underside of the table top, which is arranged in the region of the recess, the light source,
• The light sources emitting light rays along the plate cross-sections,
• - the light sources that emit light rays onto adjacent plate cross-sections,
• - Table top and frame made of transparent plastic material are formed, which is arranged in the visible area of a commercial graphic and / or logo,

the table top and the plates can be plugged in, screwed or connected to one another by gluing in relation to the plates.

The invention can be applied to plug-in bar tables, to screwable bar tables and to bar tables, whose elements can be fixed to one another by gluing in relation to the plates.

Advertising graphics and logos are illuminated indirectly by the light rays and make them brightly lit. All elements of the table can be brightly illuminated by this technique advertising graphics. The outer contour of the tabletop and the pedestal radiate bright and gives off the light like a light strip.

Advantageous developments of the novel bar table can be found in the associated dependent claims.

Advantageously, the light source in the recess on the underside of the table top can be arranged so that the light radiates longitudinally to the plate cross sections, so that a logo and / or advertising medium introduced in the table top is illuminated, the light is refracted and this makes it brightly lit, the outer edge also shines brightly.

Another embodiment of the arrangement of the light sources in the recess on the Bottom of the table top can be achieved by the fact that the light radiates to adjacent plate cross-sections and brightly illuminate the logos and / or advertising media and the outer edges brought in the pedestal, with the other outer surfaces only diffuse the light.

A further embodiment is that the logo and / or advertising graphics are introduced in the elements as a 3D image with a laser beam, which is brightly illuminated by the refracted light and the advertising effectiveness is significantly increased.

In a particular embodiment, the light beams are introduced by means of optical fibers in the photoconductive elements.
