The strip is in two layers (10,11), bonded together over a reflection layer (7). The afterglow material is a dosed crystalline alkaline-earth aluminate.

Description

Es ist bekannt, in Gebäuden, Fahrzeugen, Schiffen und Flugzeugen nachleuchtende Signale vorzusehen, die im Gefahrenfall die Richtung von Fluchtwegen anzeigen. Hierzu werden z.B. in Flugzeugen an dem Rand des Mittelgangs nachleuchtende Streifen vorgesehen, die auf einem Tragprofil gehalten und mittels eines transparenten Abdeckprofils abgedeckt sind. In Gebäuden oder auf Schiffen können die nachleuchtenden Streifen auch ergänzend oder alternativ an Wänden vorgesehen werden. Eine solche Vorrichtung ist beispielsweise aus der US-A-4998391 bekannt. Das Material des Streifens enthält zur Erzielung nachleuchtender Eigenschaften Zinksulfid. Das Abdeckprofil besteht aus transparentem Polyvinylchlorid, während das Tragprofil aus einer Aluminiumlegierung ausgebildet ist. Bei dieser Vorrichtung besteht der Nachteil, daß sie bedingt durch das Tragprofil eine relativ große Bauhöhe aufweist und dadurch gegenüber dem üblicherweise verwendeten Bodenbelag vorsteht. Ein weiterer Nachteil besteht darin, daß die Nachleuchtdauer des nachleuchtenden Streifens beschränkt und das Abdeckprofil aus Polyvinylchlorid relativ schnell durch Begehen zerkratzt wird, wodurch Lichtverluste entstehen.It is known to provide in buildings, vehicles, ships and aircraft luminescent signals indicating the direction of escape routes in case of danger. For this, e.g. provided in aircraft on the edge of the central corridor luminescent strips that are held on a support profile and covered by a transparent cover profile. In buildings or on ships, the luminescent strips can also be provided additionally or alternatively on walls. Such a device is known for example from US-A-4998391. The material of the strip contains zinc sulphide to achieve luminescent properties. The cover profile is made of transparent polyvinyl chloride, while the support profile is formed of an aluminum alloy. In this device, there is the disadvantage that it has a relatively large height due to the support profile and thereby protrudes from the flooring commonly used. Another disadvantage is that the persistence of the luminescent strip is limited and the cover made of polyvinyl chloride is scratched relatively quickly by committing, resulting in light losses.

In der nach dem Anmeldetag der vorliegenden Patentanmeldung veröffentlichten älteren internationalen Patentanmeldung WO 96/33093 ist ebenfalls eine Vorrichtung zur Ausbildung nachleuchtender Signalflächen auf einer Bodenfläche beschrieben. In der nach dem ältesten Prioritätstag der vorliegenden Anmeldung angemeldeten Prioritätsanmeldung zu der WO 96/33093, der GB 9604994.5, ist angegeben, daß statt Zinksulfid auch Strontiumaluminat als Nachleuchtmaterial in dem Nachleuchtstreifen enthalten sein kann.The prior international patent application WO 96/33093, published after the filing date of the present patent application, also describes an apparatus for forming luminescent signal areas on a floor surface. In the priority application to WO 96/33093, GB 9604994.5, filed after the oldest priority date of the present application, it is stated that instead of Zinc sulfide and strontium aluminate may be included as afterglow in the afterglow strip.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, daß sie bei niedrigem Aufbau unter Anpassung an die Höhe des Bodenbelags verbesserte Nachleuchteigenschaften bzw. eine im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik längere Nachleuchtdauer, aufweist, wobei Beschädigungen durch Begehen weitgehend vermieden werden sollen.The object of the invention is to provide a device of the type described above in such a way that it has improved afterglow characteristics and a longer compared to the prior art Nachleuchtdauer, with low construction with adaptation to the height of the flooring, with damage caused by walking largely avoided should be.

Die Vorrichtung 1 besteht aus einem im Querschnitt u-förmigen Aufnahmeprofil 2, in dem zwischen den Randstegen 3, 4 ein Streifen 5 aus einem nachleuchtenden Material angeordnet ist. Das nachleuchtende Material enthält dotiertes kristallines Erdalkalialuminat und ein transparentes Bindemittel. Das Bindemittel kann ein vernetzbares System sein oder aber durch einen Thermoplasten gebildet sein. Das Aufnahmeprofil 2 kann z.B. aus Polycarbonat bestehen. Oberhalb des Streifens 5 ist eine Silikatschicht 8 angeordnet, die über die Stirnflächen 9 der Randstege 3, 4 geführt ist, um ein Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit in das Aufnahmeprofil 2 zu verhindern.The device 1 consists of a U-shaped in cross-section receiving profile 2, in which between the edge webs 3, 4, a strip 5 is arranged from a luminescent material. The luminescent material contains doped crystalline alkaline earth aluminate and a transparent binder. The binder may be a crosslinkable system or may be formed by a thermoplastic. The receiving profile 2 may e.g. Made of polycarbonate. Above the strip 5, a silicate layer 8 is arranged, which is guided over the end faces 9 of the edge webs 3, 4 in order to prevent penetration of moisture into the receiving profile 2.

Der Streifen 5 besteht aus zwei Schichten 10, 11 des nachleuchtenden Materials, die miteinander verbunden sind. An der Unterseite der Schicht 11 ist eine Reflexionsschicht 7 angeordnet, die z.B. durch eine weiße Lackschicht gebildet sein kann. Die Reflexionsschicht 7 und damit der Streifen 5 ist mittels einer Klebschicht 14 mit dem Boden 15 des Aufnahmeprofils 2 verbunden. Die Klebschicht 14 kann aus einem vernetzbaren Harz bestehen.The strip 5 consists of two layers 10, 11 of the luminescent material, which are interconnected. At the underside of the layer 11 is a reflection layer 7 is arranged, which may be formed for example by a white lacquer layer. The reflection layer 7 and thus the strip 5 is connected by means of an adhesive layer 14 with the bottom 15 of the receiving profile 2. The adhesive layer 14 may be made of a crosslinkable resin.

An der Unterseite 13 des Aufnahmeprofils 2 ist ein Klebstreifen 12 angeordnet, der mit einer abziehbaren Schutzfolie bedeckt ist. Zur Montage der Vorrichtung 1 ist es lediglich erforderlich, die Schutzfolie von dem Klebstreifen 12 abzuziehen, der dann die Vorrichtung 1 fest aber lösbar mit dem Boden verbindet.On the underside 13 of the receiving profile 2, an adhesive strip 12 is arranged, which is covered with a peelable protective film. To mount the device 1, it is only necessary to remove the protective film from the adhesive strip 12, which then connects the device 1 firmly but detachably connected to the ground.

Fig. 2 zeigt eine Vorrichtung 16, bei der das Aufnahmeprofil 2 Ausnehmungen 17 aufweist, in denen die mit dem Streifen 5 aus nachleuchtenden Material verbundene Reflexionsschicht 7 verankert ist. Die Unterseite 13 des Aufnahmeprofils 2 weist wie bei der Vorrichtung 1 eine Klebschicht 14 auf, mittels der die Vorrichtung 16 mit dem Boden verbindbar ist.2 shows a device 16 in which the receiving profile has two recesses 17, in which the reflection layer 7 connected to the strip 5 of luminescent material is anchored. The underside 13 of the receiving profile 2, as in the device 1 on an adhesive layer 14, by means of which the device 16 is connectable to the ground.

Zur Abdeckung des Streifens 5 und des Aufnahmeprofils 2 ist ein Niederhaltungsprofil 20 vorgesehen, das zwei seitliche angeordnete Klemmstege 18 aufweist. An jedem Klemmsteg 18 ist ein Vorsprung 19 ausgebildet, der in einer Ausnehmung 21 des Aufnahmeprofils 2 einrastbar ist. An den seitlichen Randabschnitten des Niederhaltungsprofils 20 ist ferner jeweils eine Lippe 22 angeformt, die beim Einbau der Vorrichtung 16 zur Auflage auf dem an die Vorrichtung 16 angrenzenden Bodenbelag wie Teppich o.dgl. dient. Bei entsprechendem Aufbau des Bodenbelags ist es auch möglich, bei der Ausbildung des Niederhaltungsprofils 20 auf die Lippen 22 zu verzichten. Das Niederhaltungsprofil 20 besteht aus einem transparenten gehärteten und vorzugsweise beschichteten Kunststoff, der auch bei ständigen Trittbelastungen das Nachleuchten der Vorrichtung 16 gewährleistet. Als Kunststoff kann z.B. Polycarbonat oder Polyphenylsulfon verwendet werden.To cover the strip 5 and the receiving profile 2, a hold-down profile 20 is provided which has two clamping webs 18 arranged on the side. At each clamping web 18, a projection 19 is formed which can be latched in a recess 21 of the receiving profile 2. At the lateral edge portions of the hold-down profile 20, a lip 22 is further formed in each case, the like when installing the device 16 for resting on the adjoining the device 16 floor covering such as carpet. serves. With an appropriate structure of the flooring, it is also possible in the formation of the holddown profile 20 on the Lips 22 to abstain. The hold-down profile 20 consists of a transparent hardened and preferably coated plastic, which ensures the afterglow of the device 16 even with constant treading loads. As a plastic, for example, polycarbonate or polyphenylsulfone can be used.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine weitere Vorrichtung 25, die aus einem Aufnahmeprofil 2 zur Aufnahme eines Streifens 5 und einem Niederhaltungsprofil 20 besteht. An der Unterseite 13 des Aufnahmeprofils 2 sind profilierte Stege 24 ausgebildet, deren bodenseitige Flächen mittels Klebverbindungen auf dem Boden befestigbar sind. Das Niederhaltungsprofil 20 weist Klemmstege 18 auf, die elastisch sind und abgebogene Endabschnitte aufweisen, die jeweils in eine Ausnehmung 23 des Aufnahmeprofils 2 einrastbar sind. Hierdurch wird eine sichere aber lösbare Verbindung des Niederhaltungsprofils 20 mit dem Aufnahmeprofil 2 erzielt.FIG. 3 shows a further device 25, which consists of a receiving profile 2 for receiving a strip 5 and a hold-down profile 20. At the bottom 13 of the receiving profile 2 profiled webs 24 are formed, the bottom-side surfaces are fastened by means of adhesive bonds on the floor. The hold-down profile 20 has clamping webs 18 which are elastic and have bent end sections which can each be latched into a recess 23 of the receiving profile 2. As a result, a secure but detachable connection of the hold-down profile 20 is achieved with the receiving profile 2.

Fig. 4 zeigt das Niederhaltungsprofil 20 der Vorrichtung 25 in einer schematischen Queransicht. In den Fig. 5 bis 7 sind verschiedene Aufnahmeprofile 2 dargestellt, die aufgrund unterschiedlicher Bauhöhe an die jeweils unterschiedliche Höhe von Bodenbelägen angepaßt sind.FIG. 4 shows the hold-down profile 20 of the device 25 in a schematic transverse view. 5 to 7 different recording profiles 2 are shown, which are adapted due to different height to the respective different height of floor coverings.

Fig. 8 zeigt eine Vorrichtung 26, die eine Abwandlung der Vorrichtung 25 darstellt. Das Niederhaltungsprofil 20 ist wie das der Vorrichtung 25 ausgebildet und weist seitliche Lippen 22 auf, die den seitlichen Bodenbelag übergreifen. Das Aufnahmeprofil 2 weist eine ebene Unterseite 13 auf. An der Oberseite 31 ist eine Ausnehmung 32 zur Aufnahme eines Streifens 5 aus einem nachleuchtenden Material ausgebildet.FIG. 8 shows a device 26, which represents a modification of the device 25. The hold-down profile 20 is designed like that of the device 25 and has lateral lips 22 which engage over the lateral floor covering. The receiving profile 2 has a flat bottom 13. At the top 31, a recess 32 for receiving a strip 5 is formed of a luminescent material.

Unter der Ebene der Ausnehmung 32 ist eine weitere kanalartige Ausnehmung 33 ausgebildet. Diese Ausnehmung 33 ermöglicht es, die Vorrichtung 26 in ein aktives Leuchtwegsystem umrüsten zu können. Hierzu werden in der Ausnehmung 33 Leuchtdioden in Reihe angeordnet und im Bedarfsfall mit Strom versorgt. Der Streifen 5 aus nachleuchtendem Material wird in diesem Fall entfernt und durch einen Streifen 5 aus lichtdurchlässigem Material ersetzt. Es ist aber auch möglich, einen Streifen 5 aus einem Material zu verwenden, das sowohl lichtdurchlässig als auch nachleuchtend ist. In diesem Fall kann die Vorrichtung 26 entweder als passives nachleuchtendes System oder als aktives leuchtendes Leuchtwegsystem eingesetzt werden. Das Aufnahmeprofil 2 kann aus Kunststoff wie Polycarbonat oder, z.B. beim Einsatz in Schiffen, aus einer Aluminiumlegierung bestehen.Under the plane of the recess 32, a further channel-like recess 33 is formed. This recess 33 makes it possible to convert the device 26 into an active light path system. For this purpose, 33 light-emitting diodes are arranged in series in the recess and, if necessary, supplied with power. The strip 5 of luminescent material is removed in this case and replaced by a strip 5 of translucent material. But it is also possible to use a strip 5 made of a material that is both translucent and luminescent. In this case, the device 26 can be used either as a passive afterglow system or as an active luminous light path system. The female profile 2 may be made of plastic such as polycarbonate or, e.g. when used in ships, consist of an aluminum alloy.

Fig. 9 zeigt eine Vorrichtung 27, die eine Abwandlung der Vorrichtung 26 darstellt. Das Aufnahmeprofil 2 entspricht dem der Vorrichtung 26. Das Niederhaltungsprofil 20 weist jedoch keine seitlichen Lippen auf, sondern wird randseitig durch die Klemmstege 18 begrenzt.FIG. 9 shows a device 27, which represents a modification of the device 26. The receiving profile 2 corresponds to that of the device 26. The hold-down profile 20, however, has no lateral lips, but is bordered by the clamping webs 18.

Fig. 10 zeigt eine Vorrichtung 28, die für die Wandmontage bestimmt ist. Aufnahmeprofil 2 und Streifen 5 sind wie bei der Vorrichtung 26 ausgebildet. Ein Niederhaltungsprofil ist jedoch nicht vorhanden. Diese Vorrichtung 28 kann sowohl zur Ausbildung passiv nachleuchtender Signalflächen als auch zur Ausbildung aktiv leuchtender Leuchtwegsysteme eingesetzt werden.Fig. 10 shows a device 28 intended for wall mounting. Receiving profile 2 and strips 5 are formed as in the device 26. A hold-down profile is not available. This device 28 can be used both for the formation of passively luminescent signal areas as well as for the development of actively illuminating illuminated pathway systems.

Fig. 11 zeigt eine Vorrichtung 29 zur Ausbildung nachleuchtender Signalflächen an einer Wand. Das Aufnahmeprofil 2 ist im Querschnitt allgemein u-förmig ausgebildet und weist auf der Bodenfläche 34 der Ausnehmung 32 Materialerhöhungen 35 auf, auf denen der Streifen 5 aus nachleuchtendem Material aufliegt. Der Streifen 5 wird von Vorsprüngen 38, 39 gehalten, die an den oberen Endabschnitten der seitlichen Halteschenkel 36, 37 ausgebildet sind. Der Streifen 5 wird somit durch eine Art Clipverbindung mit dem Aufnahmeprofil 2 verbunden, ohne daß es weiterer Befestigungsmittel bedarf. Im Bedarfsfall ist somit eine leichte Entfernung des Streifens 5 von dem Aufnahmeprofil 2 möglich.Fig. 11 shows a device 29 for the formation of luminescent signal areas on a wall. The receiving profile 2 is generally U-shaped in cross-section and has on the bottom surface 34 of the recess 32 increases in material 35 on which the strip 5 rests from nachleuchtendem material. The strip 5 is held by projections 38, 39 which are formed at the upper end portions of the side holding legs 36, 37. The strip 5 is thus connected by a kind of clip connection with the receiving profile 2, without the need for further fastening means. If necessary, thus an easy removal of the strip 5 of the receiving profile 2 is possible.

Die Vorrichtung 30 der Fig. 12 ist sowohl zur Ausbildung nachleuchtender Signalflächen als auch zur Ausbildung eines aktiv leuchtenden Leuchtwegsystems verwendbar und für eine Wandmontage z.B. auf Schiffen bestimmt, bei denen die Ausleuchtung von Gängen und dergleichen durch Oberlicht erfolgt. Zur Erhöhung der Lichtaufnahme des Streifens 5 aus nachleuchtendem Material sind die Streifen 5 schiefwinklig zur Wand ausgerichtet. Am oberen Endabschnitt des Aufnahmeprofils 2 ist ein Halteschenkel 40 mit einer Nut 42 ausgebildet, in die der Streifen 5 eingeschoben wird. Der untere Halteschenkel 41 ist an seinem freien Endabschnitt zum oberen Halteschenkel 40 abgewinkelt und weist einen Steg 43 auf, an dem der Streifen 5 anliegt. Am freien Endabschnitt des Halteschenkels 41 ist ein Vorsprung 44 so ausgebildet, daß der Streifen 5 zwischen dem Vorsprung 44 und dem Steg 43 festgeklemmt ist. Hierdurch kann der Streifen 5 mit dem Aufnahmeprofil 2 ebenfalls durch eine Art Clipverbindung verbunden werden. Hinter dem Streifen 5 ist eine Ausnehmung 33 ausgebildet, in die Kabel und Leuchtdioden zur Ausbildung eines aktiv leuchtenden Leuchtwegsystems angeordnet werden können.The device 30 of FIG. 12 can be used both for the formation of luminescent signal areas and for the formation of an actively illuminated light-path system and for wall mounting, for example, on ships, in which the illumination of corridors and the like takes place by means of skylight. To increase the light absorption of the strip 5 of luminescent material, the strips 5 are aligned obliquely to the wall. At the upper end portion of the receiving profile 2, a holding leg 40 is formed with a groove 42 into which the strip 5 is inserted. The lower holding leg 41 is angled at its free end portion to the upper holding leg 40 and has a web 43 on which the strip 5 rests. At the free end portion of the retaining leg 41, a projection 44 is formed so that the strip 5 is clamped between the projection 44 and the web 43. As a result, the strip 5 can also be connected to the receiving profile 2 by a type of clip connection. Behind the strip 5 is a recess 33 formed, can be arranged in the cable and light emitting diodes to form an actively illuminating light path system.
