Abstract

The invention relates to a device allowing light to be piped and diffused from an external light source. It is constituted by an inflatable structure 3, of which certain parts 4-6 are metallised and reflective, and other parts 7 are transparent or translucent. The light rays 8 are piped by successive reflections on the metallised walls and diffused through the transparent walls. The device according to the invention is in particular intended for making lighting apparatuses.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'éclairage à distance, particulièrement dans des milieux agressifs ou humides. The present invention relates to a remote lighting device, particularly in aggressive or humid environments.

Les dispositifs classiques d'éclairage à distance sont, soit des dispositifs dans lesquels la source lumineuse se trouve à la distance désirée, dans un volume protégé, et alimentée par une alimentation électrique, soit des dispositifs dans lesquels la source lumineuse projette la lumière dans un conduit jusqu'a un dispositif de diffusion à la distance désirée. Dans ces cas, le conduit de lumière est un cylindre transparent dont la face interne réfléchit les rayons lumineux.Ces conduits sont, soit réalisés en matière transparente, soit sont des conduits creux dont la face interne a été rendue réfléchissante. Conventional remote lighting devices are either devices in which the light source is at the desired distance, in a protected volume, and supplied by an electrical supply, or devices in which the light source projects light into a leads to a diffusion device at the desired distance. In these cases, the light pipe is a transparent cylinder whose internal face reflects the light rays. These pipes are either made of transparent material, or are hollow pipes whose internal face has been made reflective.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est composé d'une source lumineuse classique, qui projette la lumière à travers un conduit jusqu'à un ou plusieurs dispositifs de diffusion. Le conduit et les dispositifs de diffusion sont une seule et même structure gonflée d'un gaz transparent, dont les parois sont, dans les parties destinées à conduire la lumière, métallisées et réfléchissantes, et dans les parties destinées à diffuser la lumière, transparentes ou translucides; la paroi par laquelle pénètre la lumière est une paroi,souple ou rigide, transparente. Pour des raisons de protection ou de rigide té, cette structure souple peut être gainée dans un fourreau. The device according to the invention is composed of a conventional light source, which projects light through a conduit to one or more diffusion devices. The conduit and the diffusion devices are one and the same structure inflated with a transparent gas, the walls of which are, in the parts intended to conduct the light, metallized and reflective, and in the parts intended to diffuse the light, transparent or translucent; the wall through which the light enters is a wall, flexible or rigid, transparent. For reasons of protection or rigid tee, this flexible structure can be sheathed in a sheath.

La figure 1 montre, en coupe, un dispositif selon l'invention, faisant office de réverbère. Figure 1 shows, in section, a device according to the invention, serving as a lamp.

La figure 2 montre, en vue cavalière, un dispositif selon l'invention, faisant office de rampe lumineuse. FIG. 2 shows, in a side view, a device according to the invention, acting as a light ramp.

Le dispositif représenté sur la figure comporte une source lumineuse classique (1) qui est ici un spot étanche, la lumière pénètre dans la structure gonflable (3) à travers un opercule transparent (2). La structure est composée d'une portion d'aspect général cylindrique, et d'une portion d'aspect général sphérique (5), co mportant un mamelon (10).  The device shown in the figure comprises a conventional light source (1) which is here a sealed spot, the light enters the inflatable structure (3) through a transparent cover (2). The structure is composed of a portion of generally cylindrical appearance, and a portion of generally spherical appearance (5), including a nipple (10).

La paroi de la partie cylindrique est métallisée, la calotte supérieure (6) de la partie sphérique est métallisée; la portion inférieure de la surface de la partie sphérique (7) est transparente. Les rayons lumineux (8) pénètrent à travers l'opercule (2), sont conduits par réflexions successives dans la partie cylindrique (4), sont réfléchis par la calotte supri- eure(6) de façon divergente, et sont diffusés à travers la portion transparente (7 > . Un fourreau métallique (9) assure une rigidité à l'ensemble. The wall of the cylindrical part is metallized, the upper cap (6) of the spherical part is metallized; the lower portion of the surface of the spherical part (7) is transparent. The light rays (8) penetrate through the cover (2), are led by successive reflections in the cylindrical part (4), are reflected by the upper cap (6) in a divergent manner, and are diffused through the transparent portion (7>. A metal sheath (9) provides rigidity to the assembly.

Le dispositif représenté sur la-figure 2 comporte une source lumineuse classique (1), la lumière pénètre à travers un opercule transparent (2) à l'intérieur de la structure gonflable (3) qui est un boudin de section circulaire. La paroi de ce boudin est métallisée dans sa plus grande part, mais comporte certaines zônes transparentes de différentes formes (7). Les rayons lumineux (8) pénètrent à l'intérieur de la structure à travers l'opercule (2), sont conduits par réflexions successives sur la paroi métallisée, jusqu'à intercepter une des zônes transparentes, à travers laquelle ils sont diffusés selon la forme déterminée par la forme de la zône considérée. The device shown in FIG. 2 comprises a conventional light source (1), the light penetrates through a transparent cover (2) inside the inflatable structure (3) which is a rod of circular section. The wall of this flange is metallized for the most part, but has certain transparent zones of different shapes (7). The light rays (8) penetrate inside the structure through the cover (2), are led by successive reflections on the metallized wall, until intercepting one of the transparent zones, through which they are diffused according to the shape determined by the shape of the area considered.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à la réalisation d'appareils d'éclairage.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for the production of lighting fixtures.
