BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a light emitting device having a virgin road according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the virgin road 10 a is configured by integrating a plurality of linear light emitters 20 in a substantially linear manner on a base material 11 which is a carpet. When the surroundings are darkened by supplying electricity to the luminous members 20, the entire virgin road 10a is raised by the respective linear luminous bodies 20. In addition, it goes without saying that the virgin load 10a may be implemented not only by providing a large number of linear light-emitting members 20 on both sides thereof but also by providing them on the entire surface. Of course, this virgin road 1
If 0a is laid as a carpet in a normal corridor or used in an event hall or a party hall, it can be used as a guide sign for evacuation in the event of a disaster such as a fire.

As shown in FIG. 4, in the light emitting device 10 having the virgin road 10a, if the linear light emitting body 20 is used as a part of the warp for weaving the carpet-shaped base material 11, the carpet can be used. Is completed, it will be completed. Of course, as shown in FIG. 5A, the linear illuminant 20 is attached to the end of the base material 11 with the stopper 30, or as shown in FIG.

The driving device 40b pulsates the AC power by the blinking circuit 44, adjusts the frequency of the pulsed signal by the oscillation circuit 45, and increases the voltage of the pulse signal to a predetermined value by the booster 43. The power raised to a predetermined value by the booster 43 is sent to the light emitting device 10 such as the virgin road 10a.

FIG. 15 shows an example in which the present invention is applied to a flat object such as a wall hanging or a carpet to form a light emitting device 10. The light-emitting device 10 is a device in which a large number of linear light-emitting members 20 are integrated with a base material 11 such as a cloth or a band such as a carpet, a nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric, or a net. A linear light-emitting body 20 is integrated with the formed support 15.

It is used locally and has been developed as one of the embodied products of the present invention. The light emitting device 10 is for maximizing the atmosphere of the venue where the light emitting device is installed.

For this purpose, the light emitting device 10 is arranged in a design as shown in FIG. 15, for example, so that it does not change even if this arrangement is stepped on from above. So that a large number of linear light emitters 20
Are integrated with the support 15. The support 15 is made of a transparent synthetic resin wire that is inconspicuous under ordinary illumination and that can reliably support a large number of flexible linear light-emitting bodies 20. Is preferred.

The back side of the net-shaped support 15 is lined with a substrate 11 such as a cloth-like body such as a carpet, a band-like nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric, or a net-like body. If the support 15 is a net, when the entire light emitting device 10 is viewed from the front, the backed substrate 11 is visible. For this reason, if the substrate 11 adopts an achromatic color represented by white or black, the light emission of each linear light-emitting body 20 can be made more conspicuous. Of course, the base material 11 may be of another color or design, assuming that the base material 11 is placed in a room that is illuminated without emitting light from the linear light-emitting body 20.

In order to manufacture the light emitting device 10 described above, it is preferable to employ the following means, which is the invention according to claim 8. That is, the colorless or transparent support 15
After the linear light emitters 20 are arranged in a predetermined design on the surface thereof, an adhesive is dropped or applied from the support 15 side, so that the support 15 and each of the linear light emitters 20 are disposed.
And the support 15 is attached to each linear luminous body 2.
0 is on the front side so that it is integrated with a cloth or a band such as a carpet, a nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric, or a net.

That is, in the method of manufacturing the light emitting device 10, as shown in FIG. 17A, a linear light emitting body 20 is arranged on a surface of a colorless or transparent support 15 in a predetermined design. After that, the adhesive is dropped or applied from the support 15 side. Thereby, the support 15
Can be integrated with the respective linear light emitters 20 from the back side which does not hinder the light emission of the linear light emitters 20, so that the linear light emitters 20 are not stained with the adhesive.

The adhesive is dropped or applied on the support 1
It may be performed first for only 5. The adhesive used in this case is preferably one having a relatively long curing time (about 2 to 5 minutes), and the linear illuminant 20 is provided on the surface of the adhesive on the support 15 in a predetermined design. May be arranged so as to integrate the two. In this case, the manufacture of the light emitting device itself can be performed more easily.

When a transparent adhesive is used, there are the following advantages. That is, the linear light emitter 2
In the case where the integration with the support 15 is performed, the transparent adhesive is raised on the linear luminous body 20. Then, the swelling part of this adhesive,
The light-collecting action of the linear light-emitting body 20 is exhibited, and the linear light-emitting body 20 emits a large amount of light at the adhesive portion.

Next, as shown in FIG. 17 (B), the support 15 is placed such that each linear light-emitting body 20 is on the front side, and a cloth-like body such as a carpet, a band-like body, a non-woven fabric, or the like. It is integrated into a woven or reticulated body. As a result, as shown in FIG. 17B, the surface side of each linear luminous body 20, that is, the upper side thereof in FIG. 17B is in an open state, and the light emission from each linear luminous body 20 is obstructed by another. It can be assured without being done.

Therefore, according to this manufacturing method, the light emitting device 1 such as the virgin road 10a or the illumination 10b can be used.
0 can be formed without impairing the light-emitting function of each linear light-emitting body 20, and can be easily manufactured.

By the way, although the linear luminous body 20 has recently been developed, the luminous body 22 is formed on the surface of the central conducting wire 21a, as shown in particular in an enlarged manner in FIG. On the surface of the luminous body 22, two peripheral conductors 21b are arranged in a spiral shape, for example, so that one survives even if one is disconnected, and the periphery thereof is covered with an insulating layer 24 and a cover 23. It is composed. When electric power from the DC power supply 26a or the AC power supply 26b is applied between the central conductor 21a and the peripheral conductor 21b, the linear illuminant 20 generates, for example, a magnetic field, and is disposed in the magnetic field. In this case, the light emitting body 22 to be lighted emits light.

The linear illuminant 20 is connected to each of the conductors 21a.
It is possible to connect and use an AC current or a DC power supply with 21b, for example, as shown in FIG.
By interposing the inverter 25 and the like, the light emitting body 2
2 can be performed while blinking. The luminescent color of the luminous body 22 is
It can be easily performed by changing the two types or changing the frequency of the supplied AC power. Therefore,
By changing the emission color by changing the type of each light emitting body 22, the light emitting device 10 itself shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 can be varied.

FIG. 7 shows the linear light-emitting body 20.
(B), the surface of the insulating layer 24 which wraps and insulates the conductors 21a and 21b, or the insulating layer 2
It is preferable to form a colored layer 27 for changing the color tone of the light from the light emitting body 22 on the cover 23 that protects the outside of the light emitting element 4.
The reason for this is to change the emission color originally possessed by the linear luminous body 20 to another color, and such a linear luminous body 20 is used. 5 is the light emitting device 10 according to the fifth embodiment.
