Definitions

  • Luminous elements are already known which are used for traffic control devices using incandescent lamps which are provided in a specific arrangement. Depending on the intended use, these luminescent elements can also be designed as running lights by means of a special electrical circuit.
  • chain-like sofa lamps which are arranged in preferably transparent tubular bodies, is also known.
  • the present invention is based on the problem of worshiping a solution for lighting elements which are arranged in a defined geometric shape, which is characterized on the one hand by a reduction in the effort for the production of these lighting elements and on the other hand by a lower energy consumption
  • Operating mode subject to are also characterized by robustness, by a low mass and by a low weight and thus meet another demand for new uses.
  • each lighting element has one or more light-emitting semiconductor diodes and / or fluorescent
  • These light-emitting semiconductor diodes - generally known as LED - are characterized by their low energy consumption and the fact that they are much smaller and less sensitive than incandescent or softened lamps and, above all, are suitable for continuous operation No restrictions with regard to the operating mode. Their low weight, low power consumption and robustness enable a wide range of applications.
  • the lighting elements are preferably used for decorating and / or for marking.
  • the light elements When using the light elements to decorate them, they are usually used as an advertising medium or as an optical eye-catcher for the object to be advertised.
  • An embodiment of the lighting elements is characterized in that they are electrically connected to one another.
  • the electrical connection is preferably such that the lighting elements are connected in series, as a result of which the wiring effort is reduced to a minimum.
  • each lighting element is formed by a plurality of light-emitting diodes.
  • a further embodiment of the lighting element provides that the light-emitting diodes are connected to form diode pairs.
  • the contact points of the light-emitting diodes are expediently provided with a known means, e.g. Epoxy resin, potted. If the lighting elements are arranged in a hose or in another covering, potting the contact points is generally not necessary.
  • the arrangement and connection of the diodes to form a pair of diodes offers an inexpensive option for certain geometrical structures, e.g. a cross or a star to represent rationally.
  • three-dimensional bodies e.g. to reproduce a cube, a ball or a spiral as a light element.
  • the invention further provides that at least one light-emitting diode and / or a fluorescent agent is provided with a cover made of transparent material.
  • the cover In addition to fixing the light fixtures, the cover also protects against mechanical damage.
  • the lighting elements can be electronically switched as permanent light, flashing light or running light.
  • the individual sequences are also possible.
  • the attractiveness and the effect to be achieved can be increased by the fact that the lighting elements used have different colors.
  • the colors red, green, yellow, orange and blue can expediently be used as the color combination.
  • a new area of application for the lighting elements can be seen in that they are used for marking structural facilities.
  • lighting elements that are independent of the power supply are advantageously used.
  • Another feature of the light-emitting elements can also be seen in the fact that the light-emitting diodes are arranged in a chain and an existing DC voltage drops due to a similar series connection of the light-emitting elements.
  • the light-emitting diodes are arranged in a chain and that an existing rectified AC voltage drops through an electrically identical series connection.
  • the lighting elements are also distinguished by the fact that an existing AC voltage drops due to an electrical series connection of antiparallel-connected LED pairs.
  • the existing AC voltage is equal to the mains voltage.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a lighting element arranged in a cross shape with light-emitting semiconductor diodes 1.
  • the electrical connection is established through line 3.
  • the use of rectangular LEDs as lighting elements results in a maximum radiation angle for the light emitted by the LED.
  • FIG. 2 An arrangement of the light-emitting diodes 1 in the form of a butterfly can be seen from FIG. 2.
  • the contact points of the light-emitting diodes 1 are embedded in potting compound 2.
  • the electrical connection to the light-emitting diodes 1 is established by the line 3.
  • the 3 shows a further arrangement of the light-emitting elements in the longitudinal direction.
  • the light-emitting diodes 1 are arranged in a chain, the contact points of the light-emitting diodes 1 in Potting compound 2 are embedded.
  • the power supply for the light-emitting diodes 1 takes place via the line 3.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a modified form in which individual light-emitting diodes 1 are surrounded by a flexible envelope 4.
  • the lighting elements When the lighting elements are used outdoors, they are preferably arranged in a transparent envelope 4; 5, whereby the envelope 4; 5 can be both flexible and rigid.
  • FIG. 5 shows a further modification, in which case a plurality of light-emitting diodes 1 are arranged in a casing 5.
  • the light-emitting diodes 1 are supplied with power via line 3.
