FR2789751A1 - Low luminosity lamp forming a support plate for a television or other object - Google Patents

Abstract

The lamp is formed as a rectangular block (28) of a transparent material such as Plexiglass or a transparent resin. A chamber (1) inside the block houses a cool-running compact fluorescent light source (2). Multiple optic fibres (3-14) run from the chamber to the outside of the block, with their inner ends facing the light source, and their outer ends opening at holes in the block wall.

Description

Lighting device in low light and application to the realization

  The present invention relates to luminaires, more specifically ambient lighting releasing a light source with low radiation, itself combined with a set of cavities containing optical fibers, the particular arrangement makes it possible to face the lamp of the fluo-compact type so as to touch and conduct the light in the optical fiber previously disposed in the cavities provided for this purpose, the fluo-compact lamp connected to the fiber optics represents a combination which had never been achieved to date, compared to the known lighting on the market of lamps and luminaires of all kinds of conventional type, and by their common realization, both from the point of view of the materials used and appearance

  exterior rendered in relation to the device developed and proposed.

  The invention lies in the combination of two different fields of application, one

  concerning lamps, the other concerning optics.

  The light source emitted by the compact fluorescent lamp associated with the optical fiber through the use of a plastic or tinted resin block, or nuanced by degrees of transparency, or even opaque depending on the characteristic use of the moment. It is this combination and the use of plastic or resin with the fluorescent lamp associated with the optical fiber that differs from all the luminaires offered to date. This set of characteristics described above is included in a rectangular volume forming a tray containing the light source, and taking into account this configuration, it is conceivable that this tray can support a light source of a television type and highlight that said designed lighting device has the effect of attenuating and making the emission of radiation from said television less aggressive for the eyes and therefore to a more or less certain degree, makes it possible to refresh the eyes and our fields of vision during the time we are faced with the said television on, this lighting device by its radiation due to the juxtaposition of all the characteristics mentioned above brings in different types of configurations such as its operation in a public or private domain, some field correction

  of vision and soothing on contact with his gaze.

  According to the invention, the various parts arranged are found with reference in FIG. 1 and

  the characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the following description

  a preferred embodiment, given by way of nonlimiting illustration of the appended drawings in which: FIG. 1 represents the light plate according to the invention, seen from above in

  section according to AA in FIG. 2 which represents a side view of this light plate.

  According to the invention, the said luminaire comprises a block 28 provided with a central recess I within which is produced a chamber inside which is arranged a fluorescent lamp 2 with low thermal emission, and in that in screw screw said lamp, opens the end of optical fiber 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14 and extending respectively into cavities 15,16,17 , 18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26, 27 outwards of the block 28 on the longitudinal edges flush with it, and in that the block 28 is partially closed upper 29 and lower 30 by

  opaque coatings and rests on four feet 31.

  More generally, the invention relates to an lighting device intended to produce mood lighting, characterized in that it comprises a rectangular block of plastic material, for example "<Plexiglas" or transparent resin within which a chamber is made. inside which is arranged a light source with low thermal emission of the fluo-compact type and in that opposite the said light source opens the ends of the optical fibers, extending in cavities, towards the outside the edge of the block flush with the edges of said block in transparent material, and in that the block is closed in its upper and lower part by

opaque coatings 29 and 30.

  According to other characteristics, the invention relates to the application of said lighting device as a support plate then provided with legs 31, intended to support a television set or decorative object. According to another particularity, the block is produced by a superposition of strata of shades

  different, including colors, or degrees of transparency of the materials used.
