Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of lighting technology. It relates to a lighting system comprising a plurality of electrically operated, light-emitting elements which are arranged in a spatially distributed manner and are supplied with current by two electrical lines in the form of flexible strands surrounded by an insulating jacket.
  • Such a lighting system is e.g. known from EP-A1-0 369 274 in connection with a busbar arrangement.
  • a known application of such fairy lights is the decoration of Christmas or other trees.
  • the light-emitting elements are usually designed as electrical candles.
  • the fairy lights are wrapped spirally around the tree in order to distribute the light elements sufficiently evenly over the crown of the tree. While such a light decoration causes comparatively few problems in small trees, it is more difficult in large trees, in which the light elements have to be distributed over relatively large areas, and requires a considerable amount of time both for attachment and removal. Also in other cases, in which a large number of light points or sources must be distributed over a larger area with some uniformity, the use of light chains requires a greater effort, because the chains e.g. meandering and the individual loops of the meander must be kept at a distance and fixed.
  • the object is achieved in a lighting system of the type mentioned at the outset in that the electrical lines form a network with a plurality of nodes, in which nodes the two electrical lines run in close proximity to one another, and in that each of the light-emitting Elements arranged in one of the nodes and connected to the two electrical lines there.
  • a first preferred embodiment of the lighting system according to the invention is characterized in that each of the light-emitting elements is held in a base arranged in the node, that the two electrical lines are guided through the base and contacted there for the purpose of drawing current for the respective light-emitting element , and that the light-emitting element is held interchangeably in its base.
  • the mechanical and electrical structure of the network is greatly simplified by the use of the bases in the network nodes.
  • the interchangeability of the elements ensures that the light density or the light configuration can be changed for the same knot density by deliberately omitting elements. For example, it is conceivable to implement different light patterns or figures with a basic network.
  • a second preferred embodiment of the lighting system according to the invention is characterized in that direct contacts are provided within each base for the electrical connection between the light-emitting element and the two electrical lines, which have the light-emitting element at one end and one of the two at the other end Contact electrical lines, and that the direct contacts for contacting the two electrical lines are each equipped with a contact tip which contact tip penetrates the insulating jacket of the electrical cables.
  • a first preferred embodiment variant of the base is characterized in that each base is composed of an upper base part and a lower base part, which parts can be connected to one another by connecting means, that line grooves are provided in the base part for receiving and holding the electrical lines running through the base; and that in the upper part of the base there are arranged as direct contacts perpendicular to the electrical lines, into which the light-emitting element can be inserted vertically from above, and which when assembling the upper part of the base and the lower part with their contact tips pierce the insulating jacket of the electrical lines underneath.
  • all light-emitting elements can be used that have contact pins that lead out on one side, e.g. Halogen lamps, pluggable light bulbs or LEDs. The light is mainly emitted to one side of the network.
  • a second preferred embodiment variant of the base is characterized in that each base is composed of a middle piece and a translucent upper and / or lower half-shell, that in the middle piece there are line grooves for receiving and holding the electrical lines running through the base, that in the middle piece between the cable grooves further include a receptacle for the light-emitting element, and that contact springs are arranged in the center piece as direct contacts, between which the light-emitting element is held, and which pierce with their contact tips the insulating jacket of the adjacent electrical lines.
  • light-emitting elements such as sofa lamps can be used, which are mainly held horizontally and emit their light on both sides of the network.
  • FIG. 1 an embodiment of a network according to the invention is shown in plan view.
  • the network 1 is formed from two continuous electrical lines 3a (drawn with a solid line) and 3b (drawn with a dashed line), which are designed as flexible strands surrounded by an insulating jacket.
  • the electrical lines 3a, b are laid in a wave-like or zigzag shape in such a way that they run at certain points in close proximity to one another and form nodes 2 there.
  • a plurality of light-emitting elements 4, which are all connected in parallel, are arranged in the node 2 of the network 1.
  • This type of circuit has the advantage that if one element fails, the other elements can continue to be operated without a fault.
  • the nodes 2 can, depending on the application, all or only partially with such elements.
  • the network 1 shown is operated with protective extra-low voltage (eg 12 V or 24 V).
  • a network transformer 7 is provided, which has a network line 8 and a corresponding network plug 9 on the primary side.
  • the network transformer 7 On the secondary side, the network transformer 7 has two connection cables 6a, b, which can be connected to the electrical lines 3a, b of the network 1 by means of connection terminals 5a, b or the like.
  • operation directly on the 220 V network is also possible if the Lines and the attachment of the light-emitting elements 4, the necessary safety regulations are observed.
  • the network 1 is shown in a flat, expanded form in FIG. It goes without saying that the network can be brought into almost any other shape due to the flexible electrical lines 3a, b and in particular can be placed or thrown over spatial bodies such as spheres, cones, cylinders, cuboids or the like. The adaptation of the network 1 to such spatially extensive areas takes place the better, the softer the strand used for the network construction. It goes without saying that the mesh size of the net 1 can be varied within wide limits within the scope of the invention. In particular, it is also conceivable to provide a mesh size which varies within the network 1, in order to achieve an even better adaptation or a varying density of the light-emitting elements in certain applications. Furthermore, it is conceivable to provide several pairs of lines instead of the continuous two electrical lines 3a, b, which enable separate supply and thus control of certain parts of the network.
  • FIGS. 2 to 5 A first preferred embodiment variant of such a base is shown in FIGS. 2 to 5 under reference number 15 together with an exemplary light-emitting element which can be used therein.
  • Fig. 4 shows a cross section through the base 15.
  • the base 15 consists of an upper base part 16 and a lower base part 17, which can be put together and connected to one another.
  • the two base parts 16 and 17 are preferably made of an insulating, impact-resistant and weather-resistant plastic.
  • a screw 18 is used to connect the two parts.
  • two line grooves 21a, b (21 in FIG. 3), in which the electrical lines 3a, b (3 in FIG. 3) are in the plane of the network, are arranged in an arcuate and mirror-symmetrical manner to a central plane (see FIG. 5) 1 are performed.
  • the contact sockets 19a, b are provided at their lower ends with contact tips 20a, b (20 in FIG.
  • the base 15 can be circular or square. For reasons of material savings, however, it is advantageous to provide for the base 15 the shape shown in FIG. 5, which realizes maximum support for the lines 3a, b with minimum space requirements.
  • the base 15 can also be made of transparent plastic in order to allow light emission on both sides of the network 1. When using the incandescent lamp 10 shown in FIG. 2, such a two-sided emission is only possible with difficulty because here the main emission direction from the incandescent filament 12 points upward through the lamp housing 11, while the downward light emission is impeded by the lamp base 13.
  • a flashing lamp instead of the normal incandescent lamp 10, a flashing lamp, a halogen lamp or an LED can be inserted into the base 15.
  • the light source itself can be used to create different colors for both incandescent lamps and LEDs. It is also conceivable, for example, to place a colored silicone cap over each base, which in addition to the color design also serves to protect the mechanical protection of the light-emitting element.
  • a second preferred embodiment variant of the base is shown under reference number 22 in FIGS. 6 and 7.
  • the base 22 comprises - as can be seen in the exploded view in FIG. 7 - a disk-shaped middle piece 24 as well as an upper half-shell 25 and a lower half-shell 26, which are made of transparent plastic.
  • the middle piece 24 (as in the lower base part 17 of the base 15 from FIG. 4) arcuate cable grooves 29a, b are provided for guiding and holding the two electrical lines 3a, b (see the top view of the base 22 with the upper half-shell 25 removed in FIG. 6).
  • a receptacle 30 for a light-emitting element which in this example is designed as a sofa lamp 23, is arranged in the center piece 24 in the middle between the line grooves 29a, b.
  • the sofa lamp 23 is held lying in the middle piece 24 and emits light through the transparent middle piece and the transparent half-shells 25 and 26 on both sides of the network 1.
  • the direct contact between the sofa lamp 23 and the lines 3a, b takes place by means of contact springs 27a, b, which are arranged in corresponding recesses in the center piece 24.
  • the contact springs 27a, b are not shown in FIG. 7 for the sake of simplicity, but can be seen in a top view in FIG. 6.
  • the contact springs 27a, b resiliently hold the sofa lamp 23 with their inner ends.
  • Contact tips 28a, b are formed on their outer ends, by means of which they pierce the insulating jacket of the electrical lines 3a, b.
  • the contact springs 27a, b can of course also be equipped at their ends for the so-called clamping cutting technique, in which the electrical lines 3a, b are clamped into V-shaped contact pieces designed as knives on the inside.
  • the half-shells 25, 26 are pushed with their edge over the edge of the middle piece 24 and fastened there by clamping.
  • corresponding recesses are provided on the edges of the half-shells 25, 26.
  • the invention results in a lighting system which, in a simple and flexible manner, enables uniform distribution of light-emitting elements over a larger area, is at the same time safe to use, and permits the use of a wide variety of elements and supply voltages.
