Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shelf and a piece of furniture, such. a box or a dresser.
  • Interior-lit boxes are known, but these boxes have the disadvantage that they require a mains power supply and are used as bulbs bulbs with high power consumption.
  • Such internally lit boxes are relatively rarely used in practice because they require a socket in their proximity to the power supply, which is rarely present in the required location. It would therefore be mostly necessary to relocate power lines to the planned installation site, which is associated with labor and pollution of the room, or to lay cables exposed to the piece of furniture, which in turn is undesirable for aesthetic and safety reasons.
  • Many persons are also reluctant to use a piece of furniture incorporating cables and electrical equipment which can withstand mains voltages of e.g. 240V lead.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a solution to the disadvantages of furniture pieces of the prior art.
  • This object is achieved by providing a shelf and a piece of furniture, in particular box or dresser, in which an electrical energy source is provided, which supplies a low-energy light, in particular one or more light emitting diodes with electrical energy.
  • the subject board or the piece of furniture can be used or placed anywhere without a Netzsparznungsan gleich is required at the site. Rather, the subject board and the piece of furniture in their operation are completely independent of such mains voltage connections. Due to this independence, the subject board further has the advantage of unlimited height adjustment, since this adjustability is affected by no cable to be laid.

It has been found that with conventional light intensity prevailing in a room (which is generated by daylight or also artificial light) with solar cells sufficient current intensities for the interior lighting of the inventive boards or furniture pieces are produced. In a further development of the inventive board the solar cell is arranged on a front edge of the shelf. Thus, the shelf can be loaded at will, without obscuring the solar cell.
  • the solar cell can also be integrated directly into the walls of the piece of furniture and as design element can be used.
  • the electrical energy source comprises an electrical energy store, wherein the electrical energy store is preferably rechargeable, thereby eliminating the replacement of the energy storage and incurs no operating costs for new energy storage.
  • the energy storage can be charged in the existing room light by the electric power generated by the solar cells and in the absence of room light, the stored energy of the energy storage can be used to operate the low-energy lamps.
  • a charge controller is provided for charging the electrical energy storage.
  • a switch for interrupting the circuit from the electrical energy source to the light source is provided in a development of the invention.
  • This switch can on the one hand be a mechanical switch, which is actuated for example by opening and closing a door of a piece of furniture.
  • the switch is an electronic switch which is controlled by a brightness sensor.
