Description

DESCRIPTION

Backlit glass panel with transparent led screen

Technical sector

The present invention belongs to the construction sector and more specifically to the execution of building facades.

The main object of the present invention is to manufacture a backlit glass with a transparent led screen in such a way that using it in the constructions of building facades allows it to be permeable to the entry of sunlight from the outside to the inside and does not limit to the vision from the inside to the outside, achieving from the outside a LED lighting that placed all the necessary panels to execute the facade and controlling them together by means of an electronic device can generate video images and turn the facade of the building into a giant projection screen.

Background of the invention

The use of glass panels in the execution of the facades of modern or last generation buildings, thus obtaining the so-called "curtain walls" which provide the building with high energy efficiency in the field of heating and air conditioning, thus achieving sustainable buildings, and Adding the emerging commercialization of low consumption LEDs at affordable prices and achieving with the use of these as a whole, managed electronically, to build projection screens of images of indefinite size, taking advantage of the commercialization of LED strips of very small sizes of a few mm thick which allow to emit video images and be permeable to the passage of light and vision through them.

Explanation of the invention

The transparent led screen backlit glass panel allows it to be used in the execution of the facades of new buildings as well as in the remodeling of the facades of existing buildings, obtaining in both cases buildings with a higher energy rating.

The main advantages of this invention is to provide a constructive element such as the glass panel for the execution of curtain walls in architecture with a LED panel inside that due to its miniscule size does not prevent the entry of sunlight through of the glass or the view from the inside, providing a great value to the panel such as the LED backlighting from the inside to the outside, in such a way that composing the continuous facade with glass modules of the size to be defined by the designer of the facade and By incorporating the joint management of an electronic device of all the glass panels that make up the facade, we obtain that the same as a whole forms a led screen of the dimension of the total of the panels used to compose the facade, thus creating a screen of projection of video images achieving an added value to the building.

Brief description of the drawings

In order to complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, it is attached as an integral part of said description, a set of figures where, with an illustrative and non-limiting nature, the following has been represented:

Figure 1 contemplates the execution of the facade with consecutive backlit glass panels with a transparent LED screen, thus forming an exterior curtain wall that is anchored to the existing or newly built building structure by a metal structure that supports the weight of the Glass panels affect the load-bearing structure of the building.

Figure 2 represents the composition of the backlit glass panel with a transparent led screen, which is formed by an outer glass that protects the intermediate layer formed by a transparent led screen based on led strips of approximately 2 mm thick that They allow the passage of sunlight from the outside to the inside and do not limit the vision from the inside to the outside, finally a glass is placed inside that protects the transparent led strips and facilitates the cleaning of the glass panel from its interior generating an air chamber between the two glasses sealed together around its perimeter that also provides greater acoustic and thermal insulation to the building.

Figure 3 represents the composition of the backlit glass panel with a transparent led screen, formed by an outer glass that protects the transparent led screen based on led strips of approximately 2 mm thick that allow the passage of light. from the sun from the outside to the inside and does not limit the view from the inside to the outside, in this solution an air chamber is not obtained, having a worse solution in terms of energy efficiency of the building, but a lower cost of installation.

Below is a list of the different elements represented in the figures that make up the invention:

1 = Backlit glass panel with transparent led display

2 = Metal anchor type

3 = Supporting structure of the existing or new building

4 = Glass

5 = Air chamber

6 = Transparent led screen

Preferred embodiment of the invention

In view of the aforementioned figures, and in accordance with the numbering adopted, an example of a preferred embodiment of the invention can be seen in them, which comprises the parts and elements that are indicated and described in detail below.

Thus, as can be seen in figure 1, the use of backlit glass panels with a transparent led screen (1) thus creating an exterior curtain wall facade secured by means of a metal anchor type (2) for this wall to the supporting structure. of the existing or newly constructed building (3).

Figure 2 describes how the backlit glass panel with a transparent led screen (1) is composed, consisting of an exterior and interior glass panel (4) air chamber (5) where the transparent led screen is housed ( 6) formed by strips of led of approximately 2 mm thick that run through the entire surface that the glass presents, all these elements described make up the backlit glass panel with transparent led (1) which are held by means of metal anchors ( 2) that make up a structure that houses all the panels and is anchored to the supporting structure of the building (3).

Figure 3 describes another preferred embodiment composed of a backlit glass panel with a transparent LED screen (1), formed by an external glass panel (4) and a transparent LED screen (6) inside formed by LED strips. of approximately 2 mm thick that run through the surface of the glass minus the one occupied by the metal anchor (2) that make up the entire structure that houses all the panels and is anchored to the supporting structure of the building (3).

Claims (3)

1. The backlit glass panel with transparent led screen of dimensions to be defined by the designer in the composition of the facade characterized by comprising: • Glasses (4) that form the panel on its outer and inner face creating an air chamber (5) as they are sealed around the perimeter of the panel. • Transparent led screen (6) housed in the air chamber (5) made up of led strips a few mm thick spaced enough to allow sunlight to enter from outside to inside and does not limit the view from the inside to outside. • Anchor type (2) that forms the supporting structure of the backlit glass panels with transparent LED screen (1) and which is anchored to the supporting structure of the building (3). • Electronic device that is capable of controlling the illumination of each LED that makes up each backlit glass panel with a transparent LED screen (1), in such a way that it is capable of converting the set of backlit glass panels with a screen to transparent led (1) on a video image screen with dimensions equal to that of the panels used in the composition of the façade. 2. Backlit glass panel with transparent led screen (1) according to claim 1 executed with two glasses (4) thus creating an air chamber (5), which houses the led strips of approximately 2 mm thick which separated from each other a sufficient distance to allow the passage of sunlight to the building and from the inside not limit the vision to the outside, they make up the so-called transparent led screen (6) in each glass panel. This composition system allows the transparent led screen (6) to be housed within the air chamber (5) so that the dimension of the transparent led screen (6) is the total dimension of the glass (4), leaving the metal structure (2) supporting the panels on the inside of the glass panel (4) being thus hidden from the outside, allowing to obtain the same transparent led screen surface over the entire surface occupied by the glass panels (1) , achieving to the outside that the retro-illuminated glass panels with transparent led screen (1) are generating video images where there are no lines of union between panels, resulting in a uniform screen over the entire surface. 3. Backlit glass panel with transparent led screen (1) according to claim 1 executed with a single glass (4) on the outside anchored to the metal structure (2) that supports the panels on the inside of the glass panel ( 4) being thus hidden from the outside, forcing to mount the led strips of approximately 2 mm thick which are separated from each other a sufficient distance to allow the passage of sunlight to the building and from the inside not to limit the view to the outside make up the so-called transparent led screen (6) in each glass panel, the transparent led screen (6) not being able to occupy the total surface of the glass (4), leaving the surface occupied by the metal structure (2) not covered support of the backlit glass panel with transparent led screen (1), obtaining a video projection screen as a whole where the joints between panels will be appreciated that will be marked by lines that are not illuminated by led strips. In this case, the execution of the facade would be more economical, but on the contrary, it would have a worse maintenance of cleaning from the inside and a worse thermal and acoustic insulation of the facade with the consequent worse energy efficiency of the building.
