Abstract

The device comprises at least one tubular wall (31) of a material able to filter colour from the light, and arranged, when set in its active position, to laterally embrace the projector light source (10) so as to be traversed by the light before this reaches the reflector means (20); said tubular wall (31) can be moved from said active position to an inactive position in which it does not interfere with the radiation emitted by the source (10) and directed towards the reflector means (20), and vice versa.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS
[received by the International Bureau on 30 April 1998 (30.04.98); original claim 1 amended; original claim 2 cancelled; new claims 8, 9 and 10 added; original claims 3-7 renumbered as claims 2-6, original claim 8 amended and renumbered as claim 7; (3 pages)]
1 A light beam projector device, comprising a light source and reflector means arranged to direct the light originating from the source in such a manner as to form a light beam, wherein said reflector means (20) comprise a curved concave reflecting surface at the geometrical focus of which there is positioned the light source (10), characterised by comprising: at least one tubular wall (31) of a material able to filter colour from the light, and arranged, when set in its active position, to laterally embrace the light source (10) so as to be traversed by the light before this reaches the reflecting surface (20), said tubular wall (31) being arranged with its axis substantially coinciding with the axis of the reflecting surface (20), actuator means (44, 45, 145) able to axially move said tubular wall (31), into said active position or to an inactive position, below the reflecting surface (20), in which it does not interfere with the radiation emitted by the source (10) and directed towards the reflecting surface (20), and to intermediate positions in which only a part of the tubular wall (31) is traversed by the light, and a second tubular wall, or at least a tubular wall segment, positioned coaxially with the first tubular wall (31) arranged when in its active position to laterally embrace the light source (10) so as to intercept the radiation emitted by the light source (10), the second tubular wall or wall segment being of transparent material with its surface suitably treated physically to diffuse the radiation before it reaches the reflecting surface (20).
2. A device as claimed in claim 1, characterised by comprising a plurality of said tubular walls (31) positioned coaxially one within another and close together, each being dedicated to supplying a different colour to the light which passes through it, the tubular walls (31) being arranged to be moved independently of each other, and to create in mutual combination a plurality of different colours.
3. A device as claimed in claim 1, characterised by comprising a fixed tubular transparent-material wall (32) coaxial with the others, which embraces 11
the light source (10) and forms a passage corridor for the cooling air which grazes the light source (10).
4 A device as claimed in claim 3, characterised in that the movable tubular walls (31) are substantially in mutual contact on said fixed tubular wall (32).
5. A device as claimed in claim 1, characterised by comprising, as a dimmer device, a said tubular wall of opaque material arranged when in its active position to embrace the light source (10) so as to intercept the radiation emitted by the source (10) and prevent it from reaching the reflecting surface (20), said tubular wall being able to be moved from said active position to a lower inactive position in which it does not interfere with the radiation emitted by the source (10) and directed towards the reflector means (20), and vice versa.
6. A device as claimed in claim 2, characterised by comprising actuator means (44, 45, 145) arranged to vertically move respective tubular supports (41, 141) which carry respective tubular walls (31).
7. A device as claimed in claim 1, characterised by that said tubular wall, or segment thereof, which has its surface treated to diffuse the radiation, is able to be moved from said active position to a lower inactive position in which it does not interfere with the radiation emitted by the source (10) and directed towards the reflecting surface (20), and vice versa.
8. A light beam projector device, comprising a light source and reflector means arranged to direct the light originating from the source in such a manner as to form a light beam, wherein said reflector means (20) comprise a curved concave reflecting surface at the geometrical focus of which there is positioned the light source (10), comprising a plurality of tubular walls (31) of a material able to filter colour from the light, each being dedicated to supplying a different colour to the light which passes through it, positioned coaxially one within another and close together, arranged 12
with their axis substantially coinciding with the axis of the reflecting surface
(20), said tubular walls (31) being arranged, when set in their active position, to laterally embrace the projector light source (10) so as to be traversed by the light before this reaches the reflecting surface (20), and being arranged to be moved independently of each other, and to create in mutual combination a plurality of different colours. actuator means (44, 45, 145) able to axially move said tubular walls (31), into said active position or to an inactive position, below the reflecting surface (20),in which it does not interfere with the radiation emitted by the source (10) and directed towards the reflecting surface (20), and in intermediate positions in which only a part of the tubular wall (31) is traversed by the light, the other part being positioned below the reflecting surface (20).
9. A device as claimed in claim 8, characterised by comprising, to obtain a diffused frosted light effect, a said tubular wall, or at least a tubular wall segment, of transparent material physically, arranged when in its active position to embrace the light source (10) so as to intercept the radiation emitted by the source (10) and before it reaches the reflecting surface (20), said tubular wall, or segment thereof, having its surface treated to diffuse the radiation, and being able to be moved from said active position to a lower inactive position in which it does not interfere with the radiation emitted by the source (10) and directed towards the reflecting surface (20), and vice versa.
10. A device as claimed in claim 8, characterised by comprising, as a dimmer device, a said tubular wall of opaque material arranged when in its active position to embrace the light source (10) so as to intercept the radiation emitted by the source (10) and prevent it from reaching the reflecting surface (20), said tubular wall being able to be moved from said active position to a lower inactive position in which it does not interfere with the radiation emitted by the source (10) and directed towards the reflecting surface (20), and vice versa.
