  • a hair decoration device 1 comprises a body 2, containing a plurality of button-cell electric batteries 3, an integrated circuit chip 4 and three light-emitting diodes (LEDs) 5, here one red LED, one green LED and one blue LED.
  • the LEDs 5 may comprise an integral part of the chip 4. (NB: different numbers of LEDs 5 and different colour combinations may be used if desired).
  • a plurality of optical fibres 6 extend outwardly from a first end 7 of the body 2.
  • the optical fibres 6 may be provided in bundles 8, as shown in Figure 2, which is particularly convenient in embodiments in which the optical fibres 6 are separable from the body 2 of the device 1.
  • the respective proximal ends of the bundles 8 would in practice be located more closely together than is shown (for clarity) in Figure 2, as would the LEDs 5.
  • the light from each LED 5 should be passed into the proximal end of each optical fibre 6. Should the dimensions of the LEDs 5 cause difficulties in this regard, for example, a light guide, diffuser or the like may be interposed between the LEDs 5 and the proximal ends of the optical fibres 6.
  • a second end of the body 2, remote from the first 7, here comprises a transparent lens 9, which allows any ambient light to reach a photodetector 10 within the body 2.
  • An on-off button switch 51 is provided on a side of the body 2.
  • the body 2 is concealed in a wearer's hair, for example being clipped to hair at the nape of her neck, or held within a plait.
  • the optical fibres 6 are threaded or woven into the wearer's hairstyle, such that a distal end of each fibre 6 is disposed adjacent a surface of her hair.
  • the fibres 6 may be spread throughout the hair or concentrated in particular regions as preferred.
  • the device 1 is turned on using the switch 51. Where the optional photodetector 10 is present, it acts to prevent activation of the device 1 until ambient illumination falls below a preselected threshold level, so that the device 1 may be seen to best effect.
  • the integrated circuit chip 4 is programmed to control the brightnesses of the LEDs 5, both absolutely and each relative to the others. Thus, three substantially monochromatic light outputs are passed together along each optical fibre 6, with the intensity of each being selected by the chip 4.
  • the human eye has trichromatic vision. Essentially, it comprises three types of colour receptor, each most sensitive in a different region of the spectrum.
  • the brain combines the signal intensities received through each type of receptor to synthesise a perceived colour.
  • the eye and brain will again synthesise a perceived colour, based on the intensities of the three monochromatic lights.
  • the chip 4 can cause a selected colour to be perceived emerging from a distal end of an optical fibre 6, by controlling the brightnesses of the three LEDs 5 shining into it.
  • the perceived colour emitted from the optical fibres 6 is also changed. Either a random sequence or a predetermined one may be programmed into the chip 4, as preferred.
  • the device 1 can thus appear to emit light of any desired colour, and the colour can be varied at will.
  • the chip 4 may be programmed to flash the LEDs 5 on and off in unison, again either in a random sequence or according to a predetermined one.
  • the device 1 may display flashing or twinkling points of light emerging from the optical fibres 6, as well as or instead of varying the colour of those points of light.
  • each bundle 8 of optical fibres 6 shown in Figure 2 may be so disposed that each bundle 8 takes in light at the proximate ends of each of its component/fibres 6 from only one of the LEDs 5.
  • Each bundle 8 thus carries only one colour of light.
  • the bundles 8 can be kept separate, or their fibres 6 intermingled distally of the body 2, as desired.
  • the chip 4 is so programmed that each LED 5 is turned on and off, independently each of the others or synchronized in some manner.
  • the on/off sequences may be random or predetermined.
  • pinpoints of light of the three LED colours will flash or twinkle on and off amongst the wearer's hair. This gives a different appearance to that produced by the first-mentioned device 1, but again a distinctive and attractive one.
  • each optical fibre 6 were merely cut off transversely to its length, the light emitted therefrom might not be sufficiently visible unless the fibre 6 were aligned directly towards a viewer's eye. There may also be concern about sharp fibre ends in the wearer's hair.
  • each optical fibre 6 may be provided with a globular, ideally substantially spherical tip 11.
  • This can be formed integrally with the fibre 6, perhaps by localised melting, or may be separately formed then mounted thereto, for instance using adhesive.
  • the clear globular tip 11 will spread light emitted from the distal end of the fibre 6 so as to increase its visibility, and also forms a relatively safe termination for the fibre 6. It is also envisaged that some or all of the globular tips 11 could be tinted, to modify the colour of the light passed through the optical fibres 6.
  • FIG. 4 A further beneficial modification of a standard optical fibre 6 is shown in Figure 4.
  • the fibre 6 is split into a plurality of sub-fibres 12 adjacent its distal end, each sub-fibre 12 being provided with a globular tip 11. This would produce the effect of a cluster or bunch of pinpoints of light changing colour and/or flashing on and off in unison, without having to run a plurality of optical fibres 6 all the way from the body 2.
  • Each fibre 6 may therefore be provided with a coating, coloured generally to match a wearer's hair colour (thus, alternative "blonde”, “red”, “brown”, “black”, etc. fibres will be provided). When threaded through the hair, these will not be readily visible, increasing the effect produced by the device 1 when it is activated.
  • the fibres 6 could be given a coating of a contrasting colour, so that they may appear as deliberately-tinted streaks in the wearer's hair (should the wearer favour such effects).
  • either individual fibres 6 or bundles 8 thereof may be detachable from the body 2, so that the number of fibres 6 may be varied to suit a particular hairstyle, and so that any damaged fibres may be replaced.
  • devices similar to the device 1 shown in Figures 1 and 2 are usable to decorate items of clothing, such as caps, hats, scarves, skirts, jeans, jackets and so forth.
  • a T-shirt 13 is shown in Figure 5 as an example.
  • a pocket or pouch 14 is provided on an internal or external surface of the T-shirt 13, into which a device body 15 (corresponding to the body 2 of the device 1 shown in Figures 1 and 2) may be reversibly inserted. So as to be inobtrasive, the device body 15 should have a relatively flattened shape, instead of the generally cylindrical form of the body 2 shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • a plurality of optical fibres 6 lead from the device body 15, either through the weave of the T-shirt 13 or across its surface, to their respective tips 11, which are arranged in a desired decorative pattern, (which may be part of a larger design, printed, embroidered, or otherwise applied to the T-shirt 13).
  • the tips 11 of the fibres 6 will change colour and/or flash on and off in preselected colours, adding to the attractiveness of the T-shirt 13.
  • the proximal ends of the fibres 6 are detachable from the device body 15, so that the latter may be removed from the pouch 14 before the T-shirt 13 is washed. It is believed that the optical fibres 6 will stand up to modern washing cycles without damage.
  • the fibres 6 may be colour coated for concealment amongst the weave of the T-shirt 13, or contrastingly coloured to form part of the design.
  • the device body 15 and optical fibres 6 could be incorporated into a textile patch, which could be mounted detachably to an item of clothing, headgear or footwear by means of hook and loop repositionable fastening fabric, poppers, titch buttons or the like. As above, the optical fibres 6 could be coloured to match the patch or to contrast with it.
  • a first headband or hairband 16 is a first headband or hairband 16, as shown in Figure 6.
  • a power pack 17 for example containing button cell batteries 3, is disposed at a first end of the first headband 16, and an LED unit 18, containing an integrated circuit chip 4 controlling a plurality of LEDs 5 is disposed at a second end of the first headband 16 remote from the first end.
  • An electrical wire (not shown) extends between the power pack 17 and the LED unit 18.
  • a plurality of optical fibres 6 extend from the LED unit 18 through the material of the first headband 16 to their respective tips 11, which are arranged across a whole visible surface of the first headband 16, either scattered as shown, concentrated in bunches, or forming designs or even words.
  • a second headband or hairband 19, shown in Figure 7, is similar to the first headband/hairband 16, except that it is provided with a plurality of solar cells 20, which are connected to an LED unit 21 at one end of the headband 19. Either a rechargeable storage battery is provided within the LED unit 21, or the LEDs 5 in the LED unit 21 are directly powered by the solar cells 20. In this case, the LEDs 5, optical fibres 6 and tips 11 will be selected and arranged so that the illumination they produce is visible in bright lighting conditions.
  • a third headband or hairband 52 (shown in Figure 21) illustrates a further variation on this embodiment, the headband 52 being provided with one or more devices 1 which may be detachably mounted thereto, for example by means of sockets 53 configured to receive a device 1, or by other convenient attachment means.
  • One or more conventionally-illuminated or non-illuminated decorative modules 54 may also be provided, detachably mountable to the third headband 52 by the same means as the devices 1.
  • a user may thus mount a desired number of illuminated devices 1 and non-illuminated modules 54 to the headband 52, positioned at will. Only representative sockets 53 are shown, but it is envisaged that a much greater number of attachment points would in practice be provided, to give the user greater opportunity to produce her desired effect by exchanging and repositioning the devices 1 and modules 54.
  • a fourth headband or hairband 55 (shown in Figure 22) illustrates another variation.
  • a power source 56 is disposed at a first end of the hairband 55.
  • Power lines 57 extend from the power source 56 along a length of the headband 55, and may be tapped into at a plurality of points along this length.
  • the user may attach selected devices 1, decorative modules 54 or even conventional bulbs 58 or LED light sources to the headband 55, from which they will draw power (NB in this case, the device 1 need not contain its own batteries 3).
  • a power source and LED unit replaces the power source 56 shown, and the power lines 57 are replaced by optical fibres, extending within the headband/hairband 55. Transparent decorative items would then be exchangeably mountable to the headband so as to pick up light emitted from the distal tips of the optical fibres.
  • Figure 8 shows a shoe 22, with the body 2 of a device 1 implanted in a recess in a sole 23 of the shoe 22.
  • the body 2 is preferably located towards a heel end of the sole 23 for reasons of space).
  • Optical fibres 6 extend from the body 2 through the shoe 22 (for example, between an outer surface and a lining of an upper of the shoe 22) to their respective tips 11.
  • the LEDs 5 within the body 2 are activated, pinpoints of light of varying colours flash on and off decoratively across the outer surface of the shoe 22.
  • a tumbler 24 is made from a clear plastics material (or even glass), with a relatively thick base 25 and walls 26.
  • a body (not shown) containing a power supply, control chip and LEDs is enclosed in the base 25 of the tumbler 24.
  • Optical fibres 6 lead up through the walls 26 of the tumbler 24, with their tips 11 adjacent an upper rim 27 thereof. Thus, when the body is activated, the tips 11 will flash on and off and/or change colour with time, giving a novel appearance to the tumbler 24, of particular interest to children.
  • the tips of the fibres 6 are arranged in groups of three, each comprising (for example) a tip 1 IR connected to a red LED, a tip 1 IG connected to a green LED and a tip 1 IB connected to a blue LED.
  • the respective LEDs are so controlled that the tips HR, HG, HB of each group flash in turn.
  • Figure 10 shows a ball 28 of resilient material, provided with a recess 29 to receive a body 2 of a device 1 similar to that shown in Figure 1.
  • the recess 29 is provided with a selectably closable cap (not shown) to retain the body 2 in position while allowing access thereto, for example to turn it on or off, or replace its batteries.
  • Optical fibres 6 lead through the ball to their respective tips 11.
  • the ball 28 may comprise opaque material, in which case the tips 11 will be disposed at an outer surface of the ball 28.
  • the ball 28 may comprise transparent or translucent material, in which case some or all of the tips 11 may instead be disposed deeper within the ball 28. Again, activation of the body 2 produces flashing lights having changing colours from the tips 11 of the fibres 6.
  • a baby's rattle 59 comprises a handle 60, within which is located a body 2 of a device 1.
  • Optical fibres 6 extend from the body 2 through the handle 60 into a head 61 of the rattle 59.
  • the head 61 is transparent or translucent and some or all of the optical fibres 6 terminate within the head 61, or the head 61 is opaque and the optical fibres 6 terminate at its surface.
  • Activation of the device 1 produces lights of changing hue in the head 61 of the rattle 59, optionally also flashing on and off. This is likely to attract or even fascinate a young baby.
  • the device 1 embedded in the rattle 59 may also be provided with an electronic audio generator (not shown), linked to respective audio transducers or the like, so that the rattle 59 may also emit sounds, such as musical tones. These may be synchronized with the LEDs flashing on and off, and the emitted colours may be coupled to particular musical notes.
  • optical fibres 6 described may be provided with other distal terminal features, as shown in Figures 11 to 14.
  • an optical fibre 6 is operatively connected at its distal end to a simulated (or even real) gemstone 30.
  • the gemstone 30 will light up decoratively.
  • Figure 12 shows a further variation, in which three optical fibres 6 are connected at their respective distal ends to a single simulated gemstone 30. This may be used simply to project more light into the gemstone 30 than is possible with the arrangement of Figure 11.
  • a first fibre 6R is operatively linked to a red LED
  • a second fibre 6W to a white LED
  • a third fibre 6G to a green LED.
  • the gemstone 30 will light up with red, white and green light, thus simulating a ruby, diamond or emerald in turn.
  • a genuine precious or semiprecious stone may be used if desired.
  • an optical fibre 6 has a decorative figurine 31 mounted to its distal end, so as to be lit up when a respective device 1 is activated.
  • the simulated or real gemstone 30 and figurines 31 are particularly suitable as hair decorations.
  • Figure 14 shows a gemstone 30 in a wearer's hair 32, illuminated by a device 1 and optical fibres 6 concealed in the hair 32.
  • optical fibres 6 are sufficiently flexible to be threaded through a person's hair, or through clothing, the special glass of which they are composed has a degree of resilience, and so there is a chance that they may not remain in position. Modified optical fibres, such as those shown in Figures 15 A and 15B, may therefore be advantageous in some applications.
  • a first modified optical fibre 33 is shown (in part) in Figure 15 A.
  • a majority of light transmission takes place along a central core region 34 of the fibre.
  • a shell region 35 surrounding the core region 34 frequently has a different refractive index to encourage this, thus channelling light generally axially along the fibre.
  • the first modified optical fibre 33 is provided with an elongate wire 36 of ductile metal extending longitudinally of the fibre 33, embedded within its shell region 35 where it has little effect on light transmission along the fibre.
  • a second modified optical fibre 37 as shown in Figure 15B, has the ductile metal wire 36 mounted to an outer surface of the fibre 37 and extending longitudinally thereof. (In each case, a metallic strip may replace the generally cylindrical wire 36 shown).
  • the modified optical fibres 33, 37 may be used in place of conventional optical fibres 6, extending away from the body 2 of a device.
  • the ductile metal wire 36 ensures that they retain the desired shape, rather than immediately or gradually returning to a relatively straight form.
  • Relatively sharp bends 38 can therefore be produced if desired.
  • Figure 17 shows a two dimensional picture 39, which may be part of a greetings card, or may be a frameable picture, a poster or another such form of artwork.
  • a device body 15 of relatively flattened form is mounted to a reverse face of the picture 39, where it is not visible.
  • a plurality of optical fibres 6 extend across the reverse face of the picture 39 to their respective tips 11, which are visible on their own or form part of a larger design on the obverse face.
  • the device body 15 may be activated, flashing the tips 11 on and off and varying the colours emitted therefrom.
  • the same arrangement may be applied to art works in bas-relief or even to three-dimensional images.
  • a cover 40 of a book 41 has a device body 15 of relatively flattened form embedded therein (or mounted to an inner face thereof).
  • a plurality of optical fibres 6 extend within the cover 40 or across its inner or outer surfaces to their respective tips 11, which are visible on the outer surface of the cover 40.
  • Activation of the device body 15 causes the tips 11 to flash on and off and/or change colour as described above, for example forming part of a book cover design. Embossing, metallic effects and even holograms are all in use for the covers of even relatively cheap books, so a simply implementable lighting effect is likely to be of interest to book designers.
  • optical fibres 6 may well be sufficiently fine to be applied to or embedded in pages of the book 41, as well as or instead of the cover 40.
  • Books for young children often have pages of stiff card instead of paper, which would be ideal for the incorporation of optical fibres 6 so as to produce attractive light effects to enhance the book's illustrations.
  • An artificial Christmas tree 42 comprises a base pot 43 with a hollow trunk 44 extending upwardly therefrom and a plurality of hollow branches 45 extending generally horizontally outwardly from the trunk 44.
  • a device body 2 (which may be battery or mains powered) is concealed within the base pot 43, and a plurality of optical fibres 6 extend up within the trunk 44 and through the branches 45 (largely omitted for clarity).
  • a variety of illuminable baubles 46 are mounted to the branches 45 and the upper end of the trunk 44, one or more optical fibres leading to each bauble 46.
  • Each bauble 46 may for example be lit up in a single colour or in varying colours, or may flash sequentially in several colours, depending on how the optical fibres 6 are linked thereto.
  • the baubles 46 may be permanently mounted to the tree 42, or may be exchangeably detachable therefrom, so that a user may select a preferred set of baubles 46.
  • the optical fibres 6 may extend through an interior of each branch 45 with their respective tips 11 disposed at a surface of the respective branch 45, interspersed with artificial needles 47 or the like.
  • the tree 42 itself is covered with a plurality of twinkling points of light in continually varying colours.
  • a further item into which the present invention may be incorporated is a hairbrush 62.
  • Figure 24A A body 2 of a device 1 is located in a handle 63 of the hairbrush 62, and a plurality of optical fibres 6 extend from the body 2 into a head 64 of the hairbrush 62.
  • the head 64 has a plurality of bristles 65 extending from one face thereof. Some or all of these bristles 65 may be linked to a distal end of a respective optical fibre 6, or may have an optical fibre 6 extending therethrough (see Figure 24B).
  • lights of varying colours, optionally flashing on and off would be emitted from the distal tip 11 of each optical fibre 6 (doubling as a distal tip of a respective bristle 65).

Abstract

Cette invention concerne une source d'éclairage décoratif (1) comprenant des diodes électroluminescentes rouge, bleue et verte (5) (DEL) et une pluralité de fibres optiques (6) partant des diodes électroluminescentes (5). La lumière émise par chacune des diodes électroluminescentes (5) passe dans une extrémité proximale de chacune des fibres optiques (6) pour ressortir au niveau d'une pointe distale (11) de celles-ci. Les intensités lumineuses relatives des diodes électroluminescentes (5) sont commandées par une puce programmable (4) de façon qu'un individu regardant la pointe distale (11) puisse voir une seule couleur souhaitée résultant de la combinaison des lumières rouge, verte et bleue superposées. La couleur perçue peut varier selon une séquence programmée ou de façon aléatoire et les diodes électroluminescentes (5) peuvent aussi clignoter. La source d'éclairage (1) peut être incorporée dans un article pour décorer les cheveux de l'utilisateur, tel qu'une pince à cheveux ou un serre-tête (16, 19, 52, 55). Les fibres optiques (6) peuvent être tissées dans les cheveux de l'utilisateur. Des éléments décoratifs (31) et des pierres précieuses (30) peuvent être montés sur les pointes distales (11) de fibres (6). La source d'éclairage (1) peut également être incorporée dans des vêtements (13) ou des chaussures (22), dans des articles de verre (24), dans des brosses (62) et des peignes, dans des jouets tels que des balles (28) ou des hochets (59), dans des illustrations (39), des livres (41) et des cartes, ainsi que dans des arbres de Noël (42).
