Definitions
- the invention relates to a light card according to the preamble of claim 1, with a base layer, on which at least one light-emitting element is arranged and a cover layer which has at least one translucent area.
- Such a light card is known for example from DE 202 14 732 U1.
- the cover layer consists of an essentially opaque Material.
- the translucent area is cut out formed, which is closed by means of a transparent film. This is disadvantageous since the translucent area is not very robust and only very expensive to manufacture.
- a light card with a base layer on which at least a light-emitting element is arranged, and a cover layer, which has at least one translucent area, characterized in that the Cover layer consists of a translucent film, which except for the translucent Area is printed with an opaque color.
- the cover layer consists of a translucent film, which up to is printed on the translucent area with an opaque color, it is no longer necessary to form cutouts in the cover layer. By the If the cutouts are missing, the risk of damage to the cover layer is very low. Because the top layer can be used as a continuous and uninterrupted plastic film be trained.
- the translucent area is produced by the fact that the film printed with an opaque color except for the translucent area is, the translucent area can be produced very easily. On the slide all that is required is an appropriate imprint. In particular translucent areas can be produced, which is a very complex and / or have a delicate design. The limits of the design of the translucent Range are determined by the limits of printing technology. It can easily be illuminated and non-illuminated area without mechanical Combine clippings easily and arbitrarily, which is what for many motifs ensures an appealing character.
- the light-emitting elements are basically of any design light emitting diodes (LED) have proven to be very proven advantageous.
- LED light emitting diodes
- light-emitting diodes are suitable Sizes available commercially and on the other hand can be light-emitting diodes Emit light in very high intensity.
- a white light-emitting element is advantageously used as the light-emitting element Diode used. This enables multicolored color reproduction. Luminous motifs can be created in a simple way, but not are only one color but can shine in all colors and shades. The translucent area can also with a so-called bright sign color be printed, the light emitting element then being an ultraviolet light emitting diode should be formed. This also makes it very appealing translucent area created.
- An embodiment of the invention has proven to be very advantageous in which has an intermediate layer which has recesses in which the Light emitting elements, the power supply and the actuator are arranged.
- the intermediate layer which is preferably as Foam rubber is formed, are arranged on the one hand on the base layer Elements very well protected against damage. Furthermore you can the elements arranged on the base layer by means of the intermediate layer in their Position can be fixed very well.
- the intermediate layer affects advantageously increases stability.
- the side boundary parts Due to the side boundary parts is essentially below the glowing Area formed a space into which the light-emitting element shines. It when the side boundary parts with the edge of the translucent area match. This ensures optimal illumination of the translucent area.
- the backlight of the translucent The area corresponds approximately to the brightness of flat illuminated EL foils or flat acrylic glass panels, into which lateral light is radiated.
- the structure according to the invention is considerably cheaper to manufacture.
- the light emitting elements can be used regardless of the above Additional backlighting of the translucent area that can be achieved or alternatively have a scattering element.
- the light-emitting elements are on the Glued base layer.
- the base layer is advantageously the intermediate layer and the top layer glued together. Such a structure can be manufactured relatively inexpensively and has a high strength.
- the light card according to the invention can be a connection for an external power supply exhibit. As a result, the light card can be used, for example, in trade Use decoration object.
- the light card can be placed on a shelf, for example be placed or by means of a mechanical holder to a "light card lamp" be made.
- the light card according to the invention can thus according to the Emptying the built-in batteries can continue to be used and thus represents for the respective buyer a permanent value.
- a base layer 1 which is made of an approximately one millimeter thick cardboard, the surface of which is at least partially Light reflecting is designed as light-emitting diodes (LED) Light-emitting elements 4 arranged.
- the LED 4 have a very flat Design and are glued to the base layer 1.
- a power supply 5 including any required Electronics stuck on.
- the electronics and the power supply can be on one very thin circuit board.
- 1 is on the base layer a switch 6 for actuating the LED 4 is arranged.
- the LED 4 can by means of adhesive pads be arranged on the base layer 1.
- the LED 4 can be divided into groups, the LED 4 of each group using a line with each other and each group with the power supply 5 or Electronics is connected.
- the switch 6 is connected by means of a line 5c the electronics or power supply 5 connected.
- the light card further has a connection 12, by means of which the light card can be supplied with energy.
- a connector is in the connector 12 13 inserted, which is connected to a power supply, not shown in Figure 1 is.
- a cover layer 2 which consists of a about a millimeter thick translucent plastic film, a translucent Area 3, 3a and an opaque area 7.
- the translucent area 3, 3a is different with a translucent color Intensity printed.
- Part 3 of the translucent area has one Background forms a relatively weak intensity, causing it to be backlit appears bright. By varying the intensity or use different colors can make the background look very appealing be designed.
- the cover layer 2 is complete printed with a layer 8 of translucent ink.
- a layer 8 made of translucent color opaque color existing layer 9 applied.
- the cover layer 2 is roughened. This has a very advantageous effect on the light emission of the translucent area 3, 3a.
- the translucent area 3, 3a is made with a white foam rubber Side boundary part 10 outlined.
- the LED 4 arranged so that it emits its light from the side boundary part 10th deliver enclosed room 11.
- Through the side boundary part 10 is a very good backlighting of that enclosed by the side delimitation part 10 Room 11, which forms the background of the translucent area 3, 3a.
- the base layer 1, the intermediate layer 3 and the cover layer 2 are together bonded. This creates a modular, multilayer light card.
