Definitions
- the invention relates to a light mirror, in particular a cosmetic and / or shaving mirror according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such mirrors are used primarily in the bathroom and usually mounted laterally next to the main mirror above a sink. These are predominantly magnifying mirrors. In order for the user to be able to recognize the observed face area even better, these mirrors have a lighting that is as close as possible to the object to be viewed, i. should be directed forward.
- a generic mirror is from the DE 20 2004 000 959 U1 known. This has centrally below the mirror element a large-scale board on which various diodes are arranged with their beam direction parallel to the board plane. This board occupies a relatively large amount of space. In addition, it is relatively expensive to mount diodes on a board so that the beam direction is parallel to the board plane.
- the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a luminous mirror, which avoids the aforementioned disadvantages. This object is achieved by a luminous mirror with the features of claim 1.
- the light source which is preferably also formed of light emitting diodes, in particular LEDs
- the carrier which is a board in the case of using LEDs
- the circuit board is annular, and the LEDs are arranged on it with emission direction perpendicular to the carrier or Platinenebene.
- the board may preferably be formed flexible and consist of a circuit board strip, which is inserted annularly into the housing of the mirror, so that the two ends of the board strip almost or actually touch.
- the board can also be an endless ring.
- Fig. 1 the mirror is shown without the mirror element covering the round front opening, whereby the view into the interior of the housing 1 is released.
- a light source in the form of a plurality of LEDs 2, which are applied to a flexible board 3 perpendicular to the board plane P indicated by an arrow S main beam direction.
- the housing 1 is coated on the inside reflective, so that the emitted light from the diodes 2 is ultimately almost completely passed through a light-transmitting area forward toward the viewer or user, the translucent area by a disk body 4, preferably made of acrylic glass, is formed.
- the disk body 4 is fixed with fastening screws 5 on the housing 1 and preferably has a recess which is stepped in the illustrated embodiment and forms a support 6 for the mirror element 7.
- the mirror element 7 and the lichstrahl barnellee area are so immediately adjacent and designed as a magnifying mirror Mirror element 7 concludes with its outer edges flush with the disk body 4 and front side forms a smooth front.
- the mirror element 7 is glued by means of an adhesive ring 8 on the support 6.
- the board 3 with the LEDs 2 forms a large circular ring, which is preferably pushed as in the illustrated embodiment to a corresponding inner mounting wall 9 of the housing 1 and wrapped around it.
- the arrangement of the board 3 results in the interior of the housing 1, a relatively large mounting and receiving space 10, which is additionally clearly defined in the illustrated embodiment by the mounting walls 9.
- a relatively large mounting and receiving space 10 can also be housed without difficulty larger electrical or electronic components, such as a constant current source 12 in the form of an LED converter and outwardly out of the housing 1 sauceerumblender switch 13 through which the light source on or off can be.
- the mounting and receiving space 10 is large enough so that a solid attachment for a connection of the light mirror can be done with a corresponding holder.
- a power line 14 for power supply out which is either continued in the corresponding holder or merges into a cable with power plug.
- an energy store for example an accumulator
- the Fig. 3 and 4 show a particularly interesting for this training of the light mirror with battery, but also in the version with power plug possible embodiment.
- the light mirror is equipped with a fastening means 15 for connection to a corresponding fastening element 16 of a wall holder 17a or 17b or a base 18.
- the mirror which is normally located, for example, on the simple wall holder 17a or one with an articulated arm 17b on a bathroom wall, can be removed from there and stretched onto a pedestal 18 so that, for example, a user can also move to another location, such as can make-up on a make-up table.
- the fastening means 15 is preferably arranged on the rear side of the housing 1 and connected to the housing via a hinge 19 for tilt adjustment of the mirror.
- a change between the various holders 17,18 can be done easily, it makes sense if the fastener 15 and the fastener 16 are separable and reassembled without tools. This is the case, for example, in the illustrated pin-plug connection, in which preferably both the pin and the corresponding recess are conical, so that the compound acts self-centering and obtains sufficient stability.
- the light mirror designed in this way can have either a wall holder 17 or a base 18 in its basic configuration. Then the other element 18, 17 can be offered as accessories. However, the flare can also be delivered directly as a set with one of the two wall bracket 17a, b and a stand 18.
- the light mirror according to the invention is characterized overall by a good functionality and attractive appearance. It can be formed very flat overall by the inventive arrangement of the light source and the annular support without the assembly of the light source and the supplying components would be complicated and expensive due to low installation space. The possibility of connecting the housing with different holders 17,18 brings additional flexibility in the use of the light mirror.

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Leuchtspiegel, insbesondere einen Kosmetik- und/oder Rasierspiegel nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a light mirror, in particular a cosmetic and / or shaving mirror according to the preamble of
Derartige Spiegel werden vornehmlich im Badezimmer eingesetzt und meist seitlich neben dem Hauptspiegel über einem Waschbecken montiert. Überwiegend handelt es sich dabei um Vergrößemngsspiegel. Damit der Benutzer den betrachteten Gesichtsbereich noch besser erkennen kann, haben diese Spiegel eine Beleuchtung, die möglichst auf das zu betrachtende Objekt, d.h. nach vorne gerichtet sein soll.Such mirrors are used primarily in the bathroom and usually mounted laterally next to the main mirror above a sink. These are predominantly magnifying mirrors. In order for the user to be able to recognize the observed face area even better, these mirrors have a lighting that is as close as possible to the object to be viewed, i. should be directed forward.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Leuchtspiegel zu schaffen, der die vorgenannten Nachteile vermeidet. Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Leuchtspiegel mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a luminous mirror, which avoids the aforementioned disadvantages. This object is achieved by a luminous mirror with the features of
Durch die Anordnung der Lichtquelle, die bevorzugt ebenfalls aus Leuchtdioden, insbesondere LEDs gebildet wird, auf einem ringförmigen Träger wird der erforderliche Bauraum für den Träger, der im Fall der Verwendung von LEDs eine Platine ist, erheblich verringert. Vorzugsweise ist die Platine kreisringförmig, und die LEDs sind auf ihr mit Abstrahlrichtung senkrecht zur Träger- bzw. Platinenebene angeordnet. Die Platine kann vorzugsweise flexibel ausgebildet sein und aus einem Platinenstreifen bestehen, der ringförmig in das Gehäuse des Leuchtspiegels eingelegt wird, so daß sich die beiden Enden des Platinenstreifens beinahe oder tatsächlich berühren. Die Platine kann auch ein Endlosring sein.Due to the arrangement of the light source, which is preferably also formed of light emitting diodes, in particular LEDs, on an annular support is required Space for the carrier, which is a board in the case of using LEDs, significantly reduced. Preferably, the circuit board is annular, and the LEDs are arranged on it with emission direction perpendicular to the carrier or Platinenebene. The board may preferably be formed flexible and consist of a circuit board strip, which is inserted annularly into the housing of the mirror, so that the two ends of the board strip almost or actually touch. The board can also be an endless ring.

Das Gehäuse 1 ist innenseitig reflektierend beschichtet, so daß das von den Dioden 2 emittierte Licht letztendlich nahezu vollständig durch einen lichtdurchlässigen Bereich nach vorne in Richtung auf den Betrachter bzw. Benutzer geleitet wird, wobei der lichtdurchlässige Bereich durch einen Scheibenkörper 4, vorzugsweise aus Acrylglas, gebildet wird. Der Scheibenkörper 4 wird mit Befestigungsschrauben 5 am Gehäuse 1 festgelegt und hat bevorzugt eine Ausnehmung, die bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform getreppt ausgebildet ist und eine Auflage 6 für das Spiegelelement 7 bildet Das Spiegelelement 7 und der lichstrahldurchlässige Bereich sind so unmittelbar benachbart und das als Vergrößerungsspiegel ausgebildete Spiegelelement 7 schließt mit seinen Außenkanten bündig mit dem Scheibenkörper 4 ab und bildet vorderseitig eine glatte Front. Das Spiegelelement 7 ist mittels eines Kleberings 8 auf die Auflage 6 aufgeklebt.The
Die Platine 3 mit den LEDs 2 bildet einen großen Kreisring, der bevorzugt wie bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform auf eine entsprechende innere Montagewandung 9 des Gehäuses 1 aufgeschoben bzw. um diese herumgelegt ist. Durch die Anordnung der Platine 3 ergibt sich in dem Inneren des Gehäuses 1 ein verhältnismäßig großer Montage- und Aufnahmeraum 10, der bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform durch die Montagewandungen 9 zusätzlich klar abgegrenzt ist. In dem Montage- und Aufnahmeraum 10 können unproblematisch auch größere elektrische oder elektronische Komponenten untergebracht werden, wie beispielsweise eine Konstantstromquelle 12 in Form eines LED-Konverters und ein sich nach außen aus dem Gehäuse 1 herauserstreckender Schalter 13, durch den die Lichtquelle ein- oder ausgeschaltet werden kann. Außerdem ist der Montage- und Aufnahmeraum 10 groß genug, damit eine solide Befestigung für eine Verbindung des Leuchtspiegels mit einem dazugehörigen Halter erfolgen kann.The board 3 with the
