Leuchtpult, insbesondere zur Betrachtung/Bearbeitung von DurchsichtsvorlagenLight table, especially for viewing/editing transparent templates
Leuchtpulte (-platten/-tische) üblicher Bauart weisen eine Mattscheibe und eine oder mehrere dahinterliegende Lichtquellen auf. Die Verteilung des Lichtes über die Mattscheibe erfolgt im einfachsten Falle über den Abstand zwischen Lichtquelle und Mattscheibe ohne zusätzliche Maßnahmen, teilweise werden mehr oder weniger aufwendige Verspiegelungen zur mehr oder weniger gleichmäßigen Verteilung eingesetzt oder es wird versucht durch den Einsatz vieler Lichtquellen eine gleichmäßige Ausleuchtung zu erreichen. Die Gleichmäßigkeit der Ausleuchtung ist damit unter anderem abhängig vom Abstand der Lichtquelle(n) von der Mattscheibe, woraus sich eine Mindestbauhöhe für Leuchtpulte herkömmlicher Bauart ergibt, die weit über der zur bloßen Unterbringung moderner Lichtquellen notwendigen liegt.Light consoles (panels/tables) of the usual design have a ground glass screen and one or more light sources behind it. In the simplest case, the distribution of the light across the ground glass screen is achieved via the distance between the light source and the ground glass screen without any additional measures. In some cases, more or less complex mirroring is used to achieve more or less even distribution, or attempts are made to achieve even illumination by using many light sources. The evenness of the illumination is therefore dependent, among other things, on the distance of the light source(s) from the ground glass screen, which results in a minimum height for light consoles of the conventional design, which is far higher than that required to simply accommodate modern light sources.
Der im Schutzanspruch angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, ein Leuchtpult mit minimaler Bauhöhe, begrenzt nur durch z.B. die Abmessungen moderner Miniaturleuchtstoffröhren und der notwendigen Zusatzgeräte (Vorschaltgerät), bei gleichzeitiger Befriedigung des Anspruches auf gleichmäßige Ausleuchtung desselben zu schaffen.The invention specified in the protection claim is based on the problem of creating a light box with a minimal height, limited only by, for example, the dimensions of modern miniature fluorescent tubes and the necessary additional devices (ballast), while at the same time satisfying the requirement for uniform illumination of the same.
Die Funktionsweise der Erfindung beruht auf der bekannten Möglichkeit eine Glasplatte als Lichtleiter einzusetzen. Lichtstrahlen, die in flachem Winkel an einer Kante in die Glasplatte eintreten, werden durch diese hindurchreflektiert, bis zur gegenüberliegenden Kante (Totalreflexion, s. Anlage 3, Seite 1, Figur 1). Weist die Glasplatte an ihrer Oberfläche eine Störung (Riefe, Kratzer) auf, so wird hier auftretendes Licht nicht einfach weitergespiegelt sondern gestreut, für den auf die Oberfläche der Platte sehenden Betrachter scheint die betreffende Stelle zu leuchten (s. Anlage 3, Seite 1, Figur 2). Werbeschilder (Leuchtreklamen), Acrylglasplatten, in welche Schriftzüge und/oder Bilder eingefräst sind, die zu leuchten scheinen, machen sich diesen Effekt zunutze und erfreuen sich zunehmender Verbreitung. Die Erkenntnis, daß sich nach dem beschriebenen Effekt der Lichtaustritt zur Ober- und/oder Unterseite einer seitlich angestrahlten Glasplatte durch einfaches Einritzen derselben an Ober- und/oder Unterseite beliebig steuern läßt, liegt der Lösung des beschriebenen Problems der gleichmäßigen Lichtverteilung bei minimierter Bauhöhe zugrunde.The way the invention works is based on the known possibility of using a glass plate as a light guide. Light rays that enter the glass plate at a flat angle at one edge are reflected through it to the opposite edge (total reflection, see Appendix 3, page 1, Figure 1). If the glass plate has a defect on its surface (groove, scratch), the light that occurs here is not simply reflected but scattered; for the observer looking at the surface of the plate, the relevant area appears to glow (see Appendix 3, page 1, Figure 2). Advertising signs (neon signs), acrylic glass plates into which lettering and/or images that appear to glow are milled, make use of this effect and are becoming increasingly popular. The realization that, according to the described effect, the light emission to the top and/or bottom of a glass plate illuminated from the side can be controlled as desired by simply scratching the top and/or bottom of the plate, is the basis for the solution to the described problem of uniform light distribution with a minimized construction height.
Wichtig zur Erreichung einer gleichmäßigen Ausleuchtung ist, daß der Abnahme der Lichtintensität mit zunehmenden Abstand von der Lichtquelle durch die Verteilung der Riefen Rechnung getragen wird. D.h. mit zunehmendem Abstand von der Lichtquelle muß deren Dichte gleichförmig, entsprechend der Abnahme der Lichtintensität zunehmen, so daß im der Lichtquelle nahen Bereich viel Licht von noch „intakter" Glasfläche in den weiter entfernten Bereich weitergespiegelt und erst dort gestreut wird.To achieve uniform illumination, it is important that the decrease in light intensity with increasing distance from the light source is taken into account by the distribution of the grooves. This means that with increasing distance from the light source, their density must increase uniformly, in line with the decrease in light intensity, so that in the area close to the light source, a lot of light from the still "intact" glass surface is reflected into the area further away and only then scattered.
Auf die beschriebenen Weise ist in Verbindung mit den z. Zt. verfügbaren Leuchtmitteln (Miniaturleuchtstofflampen) eine Reduzierung der Bauhöhe von den genannten und ähnlichen Geräten auf unter 20 Millimeter möglich. Dies bietet erhebliche Vorteile in der Handhabung (z.B. bei der Verwendung als Tischgerät zum Sortieren oder Durchzeichnen), bedeutet ganz allgemein einen geringeren Platzbedarf (vorteilhaft auch beim Einbau in Tische oder andere Geräte) sowie ästhetische Vorteile (Verwendung als Wandleuchte).In the manner described, in conjunction with the currently available light sources (miniature fluorescent lamps), it is possible to reduce the height of the devices mentioned and similar ones to less than 20 millimeters. This offers considerable advantages in handling (e.g. when used as a table device for sorting or tracing), generally means less space is required (also advantageous when installed in tables or other devices) and aesthetic advantages (use as a wall light).
