Description

ABAT JOUR DEMONTABLE

  The subject of the present invention is a method for realizing

  the manufacture, manufacture and marketing of a removable lampshade, in the general shape of a cylindrical or conical sleeve, making it possible to present by light diffusion all transparent documents, photographs or reproductions intended for the decoration or

  to advertising, and bearing the mark Lehoux.

  The lampshade according to the invention comprises two innovations; the first in the mantle allowing the light diffusion of all photographic or other films, the second in the carcass composed of two demountable profiled elements, intended to give

  the shape of the lampshade, and maintain the mantle.

  We already know the lampshades that can not be dismantled, including an opaque or translucent, semi-rigid coat. In general, this coat is covered externally with a decorative fabric, painted silk, dried flowers, etc. that allows sifting and to diffuse the light The coat is wrapped according to a cylinder or

  a cone, the upper and lower edges of which are glued

  The lampshades must be assembled at the place of manufacture with a substantial workforce and, once mounted, occupy a large volume which may pose storage and shipping problems due to the fact that the lampshades have to be assembled. their size and their fragility These

  disadvantages significantly raise their selling price.

  The lampshade according to the invention allows the user to obtain a custom removable lampshade and diffusing the decor of his choice by simply sending to the manufacturer, a photo or a

  document format postcard that he will want to reproduce.

  it furthermore presents, for the manufacturer, advantages of simplification in terms of making, storing and shipping, the

  editing being done by the user or the dealer.

  The manufacturer, from the document sent by the user or the retailer, will have to obtain a black and white or color enlargement on translucent film and the format of the shade, this, by means of either a photographic process or using a reproduction chamber After this first operation, he can make

the coat.

  The coat is made of three layers, laminated,

  whose height and length will give the volume of the lampshade.

  Fig 1 in drawing a), the inner part of the lampshade consists of an opaque composite film, a thickness of 20 to 30 O / and ensuring the rigidity of the mantle This film also allows to sift the light of the light bulb, she can

be self-adhesive.

  Fig 1 b) the central part of the coat consists of the translucent film obtained by magnification photo o other means

  of reproduction and intended for the dissemination of the subject selected by the user.

  tor. FIG. 1 c), the outer part consists of an opaque or transparent composite film with a thickness of 5 to 100/00, which makes it possible to protect the intermediate film, it can also be self-adhesive and will have the same dimensions as the film has the three thicknesses being assembled by means of gluing or thanks to the self-adhesiveness of the materials employed The assembly being passed through a manual or mechanical rolling mill, in order to eliminate any air bubbles The number of films constituting the thickness of the coat, as well as the quality of the materials used, not being limiting to the invention, the direction of sticking of these materials can also

to be changed.

  We see in this first part of the invention constituted

  by the cloak, the double interest.

  1) For the user in the choice of the broadcast subject, ex. family photo, landscape, reproduction of paintings, works of art, advertising lampshade etc. TI also chooses the shape

and the volume of his lampshade.

  2) For the manufacturer, by the simplicity of the construction of the coat, the low cost of labor and the little investment needed. 2 and 3, the carcass is composed according to the invention, of two profiled elements up and down, having a relatively

  deep, whose firmness allows to pinch and maintain the coat.

  The shape of the groove and its dimensions depending on the thickness

of the coat.

  The invention being based on the pinching of the mantle and the maintenance of it, the elements-up and down can be of different shapes, round, oval, square etc .; the elements up and down can be obtained by stamping or drawing and bending plastic material, metal or other, stamping

avoiding welds and fittings.

  The base element will also comprise as in the figures

  5 and 5 ', a system for holding the socket of the bulb.

  The socket is also intended to fix the lampshade once mounted,

on a sold-out foot.

  The two elements, up and down, presented towards each other, make it possible to house respectively the upper edge and the edge

  coat and give the lampshade the desired shape.

  In the case where the high and low elements have the same diameter, one will obtain a lampshade of cylindrical type and in the

  case of different diameters, we will obtain a conical type lampshade.

  The ends of the mantle thus wound in the shape of a cylinder or cone can be touched edge to edge or superimposed slightly In both cases> it will be possible if the user wishes, to put on this joint a thin adhesive strip on which will be

  registered, either the manufacturer's mark or a text specific to the use

  sateur. In the case of a lampshade placed directly on a table for example, the invention provides for the use of also removable legs These are obtained by stamping of any material and comprise in the top a throat which will marry by squeezing it. , the base element of the lampshade The shape shown in Figure 6 of the

  drawing not being limited to the invention.

  The manufacturer must therefore provide for the realization of this process of slaughter a) a photographic system or reproduction chamber, allowing the enlargement on a translucent color film or black and white, the subject requested by the user; b) a rolling mill in order to stick the various films of the mantle; c) a hydraulic press or other material for the manufacture of the carcass and feet The assembly of this lampshade being made by the user, it will be enough for him to introduce the upper edge and the lower edge of the coat, by making a slight pressure in the grooves of the elements up and down, then If he wants, stick the adhesive tape of the junction of the coat He will have any leisure eventually

  to hide the carcass, to stick an adhesive tape and decorative.

  If he wants to put the lampshade on a table, to add removable feet it should be noted that for mounting, the user does not

  need special knowledge and no tools.

  The attached drawing is a sectional view of the different

  elements constituting this lampshade -

  Fig 1 The coat comprising the different films

composites to juxtapose and paste.

  a) opaque composite film of 20 to 300 / o

  stiffening the mantle and sifting the light from the bulb.

  (b) the transparent photo or reproductions film, which diffuse

the subject chosen by the user.

  (c) an opaque or transparent composite film serving as

protection of the intermediate film.

  Fig 2 and 3, have two possibilities of shape for the high and low elements constituting the carcass, the invention residing in the pinching and maintaining the mantle; other shaped shapes may be employed, the drawing not being limiting to the invention. Fig 4 and 5 'present the arrangement of the two elements

  up and down in the making of a round and cylindrical lampshade.

  Figure 5 and 5 'showing the base element with the socket support The round and cylindrical shape shown in the drawing

  is not limiting to the invention.

  Fig 6 shows in detail the entire mounted shade 1) the mantle; 2) carcass element high; 3) bottom carcass element with socket holder; 4) the removable foot for

  the case of a lampshade directly on a desk or table -

  Both innovations, mantle and carcass, object of the invention, can be manufactured and distributed separately Indeed, the elements constituting the carcass can find applications in the old way of manufacturing lampshades comprising a

  rigid or semi-rigid coat: The present invention is particularly

  interesting in the field of souvenir lampshades and light advertising, their simplicity of manufacture is also suitable for mail order, for sale in photo shops, in museums, historical monuments they can serve as a support many of the big brands "they could also be used during political campaigns We knew indeed all the gadgets used, but

  a lampshade presenting the candidate may have a new impact.

  The lampshade can also be used for the graphic arts As can be seen, for the manufacturer, the fields of application are very large The manufacture of all these elements requires only very low investments and can be manufactured by small production units, the assembly of

  the whole being provided by the user.

  The patent is also intended to preserve, both for the manufacture and distribution of the lampshade under the brand Lehoux.
