mesne assignments, to General Electric Company, a corporation of New York I Application August 25, 1931, Serial No. 160,852
6 Claims.
My invention relates to illumination generally and. more particularly to self-luminous wall constructions.
According to my invention, walls are formed from hollow blocks of light-transmitting material, such as glass, containing means for rendering said blocks luminous upon passage of an electric current therethrough. The individual blocks may be filled with an ionizable gas or vapor w or mixture thereof, suitable means being provided to excite the gas or vapor to luminescence. With a wall f this nature, theintensity of the light per unit of area is much lower than is the case with a few spaced light sources of high intensity and a closer approach to indirect illumination may be achieved. In a room having the walls (eitherside Walls or ceiling) built up in this fashion, an adequate quantity of light may be obtained without having any bright spots to produce an annoying glare. Moreover, when used as an outside wall, a room of this nature would be quite adequately illuminated during the day due to the translucent nature of the wall. Another advantage of such a structure is that since 25 the wall is itself luminous no separate light supporting devices need be provided. Moreover, since the internal pressure is quite low (on the order of 2 to 15 mm. of mercury, for example) each of the individual blocks functions as w a very good heat insulator.
Walls constructed in accordance with my invention may also be made decorative, as, for example, by filling different blocks with diiferent gases to produce various pleasing colored light- M ing effects.
Apart from purposes of illumination or decoration, such walls may also be made of glass transparent to ultra-violet rays where bacteriacidal action is desired, as, for example, in operating 40 rooms, solaria or even in refrigerators. The blocks may in this case contain a small quantity of mercury.
Further features and advantages of my invention will appear from the following detailed de- 45 scription of species thereof.
In the drawing, Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a room having walls of the type comprising my invention; Figs. 2 and 3 are perspective and sectional views respectively of a glass block used in 59 building up such a wall; Fig. 4 is a diagrammatic view of a portion of a wall illustrating one method of applying an electric current thereto; Fig. 5 is a similar view of a modified method of supplying current; Fig. 6 is a perspective'view of a.
modified form of block containing internal elecan outside wall, the surface (either outer or introdes; andFig. '7 shows one form of circuit for a wall formed of such blocks.
Referring to the drawing, the walls ill of the room shown in Fig. 1 are built up of blocks l2 preferably of glass. Each of the blocks l2 6 (Figs. 2 and 3) may be made of two pressed glass dishes l3 and I4 fused together at their peripheries, although they may be made by blowing, if desired. When used in the construction of and II 10 ner) of one face of the block l2 may be provided with light retracting media, such as prisms or facets l5 (Fig. 3) for diffusing the sunlight entering the room. Each of the blocks l2 may be filled with a suitable ionizable gas, such as neon or argon, at a pressure of the order of 2 to mm. of mercury.
The blocks i2 are laid up to form a wall with a suitable binding material between the blocks, preferably one which is non-conducting to radiofrequency currents and non-hygroscopic. In the arrangement shown in Fig. 4, conducting metallic plates or sheets l6, preferably the same width as the blocks, extend between the horizontal rows of blocks to serve as electrodes and are embedded in the binding material. The said rows of blocks are in this instance electrically connected in multiple, alternate electrodes 16 being connected to conductors I1 and I8 respectively. The said conductors l1 and I8 are connected across the sec ondary IQ of a transformer 20, the primary 2| of which is connected to a suitable radio-frequency generator. Upon completion oi. the circult, the flow of radio-frequency currents between alternate electrodes l6 and through the gas or gases within the blocks l2, causes the said gases to be excited to luminescence.
Fig. 5 illustrates an alternative method of connecting the blocks l2 in which only the outer two electrodes i6 are connected to the conductors l1 and 18, thereby connecting the rows of blocks in series-parallel relation, the conductors l1 and It being connected to a source of high-potential high-frequency current.
The block 22 shown in Fig. 6 has a pair of elec- '45 trodes 23-23 sealed therein and connected to lead-in wires 24-24 extending through and sealed in the side walls of said block. The said electrodes 23-23 may have a coating of electron emissive material thereon, such as barium oxide. The blocks 22 may be filled with an ionizabl'e gas such as neon or argon-at a pressure of the order of 5 mm. of mercury and may also contain a small quantity of mercury. In the arrangement shown in Fig. '7, the blocks 22 are connected in series and may be supplied with current from a constant current source of ordinary commercial frequencies and high potential. Other suitable circuits may of course be employed. When connecting the blocks 22 in series, a cutout may be provided across each of them to prevent all of the blocks from going out upon failure of one of them. The blocks 22 may also be excited by means of high frequency currents. The said blocks may also be connected in multiple if each is provided with a series resistance or inductance.
For use as a ceiling, the blocks i2 or 22 may be made somewhat flatter than shown in the drawing. Instead of building up the walls merely by employing a binding material or cement in the manner of constructing ordinary brick walls, a suitable frame may be provided to permit ready removal and replacement of the individual blocks. In addition to the light-diffusing prisms or lenses l (Fig. 3) on the outside wall of the block i2 (or 22) the inner surface 25 of the inside wall may be frosted. The said surface 25, or both surfaces !5 and 25, as indicated by the dotted lines 26', may be coated with a fluorescent material, such, for example, as zinc silicate, cadmium silicate or calcium tungstate, or mixtures thereof. The fluorescent material serves to further diffuse the'sunlight in the daytime, and when the wall is illuminated at night, the fluorescent material is excited to luminescence by the discharge in the blocks.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
