Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Beleuchtungsleiste, insbesondere zur Fluchtwegmarkierung.The invention relates to a lighting strip, in particular for marking escape routes.

Zweck der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, eine Beleuchtungsleiste zur Verfügung zu stellen, die so gestaltet ist, daß ein geringer Herstellungs- und Montageaufwand möglich ist ohne Toleranzausgleichs- bzw. Paßprobleme und ohne Verwendung zusätzlicher Klebe- und Abdichtungsprozesse zwischen deren einzelnen Komponenten.Purpose of the present invention is to provide a lighting strip which is designed so that a low manufacturing and assembly effort is possible without tolerance compensation or fitting problems and without using additional adhesive and sealing processes between their individual components.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Beleuchtungsleiste, insbesondere zur Fluchtwegmarkierung zu schaffen, die einfach und kostengünstig aufgebaut und zu montieren ist und auch bei längeren Abmessungen keine Probleme verursacht.The invention is therefore based on the object of providing a lighting strip, in particular for escape route marking, which is simple and inexpensive to set up and install and does not cause any problems even in the case of longer dimensions.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, daß die Beleuchtungsleiste die im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale aufweist. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.To achieve this object, the invention provides that the lighting strip has the features specified in claim 1. Advantageous further developments and expedient refinements of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Erfindungsgemäß geht es um ein sorgfältig abgestimmtes Klemmsystem, das insbesondere Verklebungsprozesse überflüssig macht, wobei die verwendete Dekorfolie zwischen Halteelementen, insbesondere Halteschenkeln der lichtdurchlässigen Abdeckprofilleiste einerseits und an den Boden der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste angeformte Auflagestützen andererseits gehalten bzw. eingespannt ist, und zwar in einem solchen Abstand vom Boden der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste, daß der auf dieser aufliegende LED-Leiterstreifen ebenfalls einklemmbar ist, nämlich zwischen Oberkante Trägerrahmenprofilboden und Unterkante Dekorfolie.The invention relates to a carefully coordinated clamping system, which in particular makes gluing processes superfluous, the decorative film used being held or clamped between holding elements, in particular holding legs of the translucent cover profile strip on the one hand and support supports molded onto the bottom of the support frame profile strip, at such a distance from Bottom of the support frame profile strip, that the LED conductor strip resting thereon can also be clamped, namely between the upper edge of the support frame profile base and the lower edge of the decorative film.

Ein zumindest einendiger Endabschluß mit einer Abdeckkappe und einem Endstück, wie im Anspruch 2 gekennzeichnet, verleiht der Beleuchtungsleiste ein formschönes Aussehen, und zwar mit einfachen Mitteln. Eine besondere Bedeutung kommt dabei der Abdeckkappe zu, die die lichtdruchlässige Abdeckprofilleiste über einen axialen Endbereich überlappt, so daß eine Abdeckung des Abdeckprofilleistenendes auch dann gewährleistet ist, wenn die Abdeckprofilleiste aufgrund von Temperaturschwankungen Längenänderungen erfährt. Damit braucht bei der Materialauswahl für die lichtdurchlässige Abdeckprofilleiste auf deren thermischen Ausdehnungskoeffizienten keine besondere Rücksicht genommen werden.An at least one end end with a cover cap and an end piece, as characterized in claim 2, gives the lighting strip an elegant appearance, with simple means. Of particular importance is the cover cap, which overlaps the translucent cover profile strip over an axial end area, so that a cover of the cover profile strip end is guaranteed even if the cover profile strip experiences length changes due to temperature fluctuations. This means that when selecting the material for the translucent cover profile strip, no special consideration needs to be given to its thermal expansion coefficient.

Es versteht sich, daß die Dekorfolie zur Aufnahme der einzelnen, hintereinander aufgereihten LED-Elemente Löcher für deren Aufnahme aufweist. Dabei kann die Dimensionierung der Löcher vorteilhafterweise so erfolgen, daß ein Preßsitz mit den, die Löcher durchsetzenden LED-Elementen gewährleistet ist, womit Dekorfolie und LED-Leiterstreifen zusammen als vormontierte Baueinheit in die Wanne der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste einlegbar sind.It goes without saying that the decorative film for receiving the individual LED elements arranged one behind the other has holes for receiving them. The dimensions of the holes can advantageously be such that a press fit is ensured with the LED elements penetrating the holes, with which decorative film and LED conductor strips can be inserted together as a pre-assembled unit in the trough of the support frame profile strip.

Beleuchtungsleisten oder Beleuchtungskörper nach den gekennzeichneten Prinzipien lassen sich vorteilhaft entlang von Schiffsgängen auf dem Boden im Randbereich oder auch mittig in den Flur-Fußboden eingelassen verlegen. Auch ein Einsatz als Handlauf oder beispielsweise in Bussen als in Kopfhöhe montierte Gepäckfachleiste ist vorteilhaft oder in möglichst flacher Ausführungsform als beleuchteter Kantenstreifen für Treppenstufen.Lighting strips or lighting bodies according to the identified principles can advantageously be installed along ship aisles on the floor in the edge area or in the middle of the corridor floor. Use as a handrail or, for example, in buses as a luggage compartment strip mounted at head height is advantageous or, in the flattest possible embodiment, as an illuminated edge strip for stairs.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand der Zeichnungen näher beschrieben, und es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine Draufsicht auf einen Endbereich der Beleuchtungsleiste,
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt etwa folgend der Linie 11 - 11 in Fig. 1 und
  • Fig. 3 eine schaubildliche Explosivdarstellung des Leistenendbereichs nach Fig. 1.
An exemplary embodiment of the invention is described in more detail below with reference to the drawings, in which:
  • 1 is a plan view of an end region of the lighting strip,
  • Fig. 2 shows a section approximately following the line 11-11 in Fig. 1 and
  • 3 is a diagrammatic, exploded view of the strip end area according to FIG. 1.

Das in den Figuren gezeigte Ausführungsbeispiel der neuen Beleuchtungsleiste eignet sich besonders als auf dem Boden zu verklebende Randleiste, was nicht einschränkend verstanden werden soll. Links kann sich die Beleuchtungsleiste (Fig. 2) an eine senkrecht zu denkende Wand anschließen, rechts ist die Beleuchtungsleiste zum Flur hin abgeschrägt. Im vorliegenden Fall kann die Leistenhöhe auf etwa 1 cm oder weniger begrenzt werden.The exemplary embodiment of the new lighting strip shown in the figures is particularly suitable as an edge strip to be glued to the floor, which should not be understood as restrictive. On the left, the lighting bar (Fig. 2) can connect to a wall to be considered vertically, on the right, the lighting bar is beveled towards the hallway. In the present case, the last height can be limited to about 1 cm or less.

Im folgenden werden nun die einzelnen Bestandteile der Beleuchtungsleiste gemäß Ausführungsbeispiel und deren Montage erläutert.The individual components of the lighting strip according to the exemplary embodiment and its assembly are now explained below.

Fig. 1 läßt den Endbereich einer Beleuchtungsleiste erkennen und zeigt eine Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1, eine lichtdurchlässige Abdeckprofilleiste 2, eine deren axialen Endbereich überlappende Abdeckkappe 3 und ein Endstück 4 als stirnseitiger Abschluß der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1.1 shows the end region of a lighting strip and shows a support frame profile strip 1, a translucent cover profile strip 2, a cover cap 3 overlapping its axial end region and an end piece 4 as a front end of the support frame profile strip 1.

Die Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1 besteht aus einer an sich bekannten AIMgSi-Leichtmetallegierung, jedoch liegt auch eine Ausbildung in Form eines extrudierten oder spritzgegossenen Kunststoffteils im Möglichkeitsbereich. Der Boden ist nicht glatt, sondern feinprofiliert ausgebildet, um die Beleuchtungsleiste rasch und einfach verkleben zu können. Selbstverständlich ist auch eine Verschraubung denkbar. Nachdem die Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1 befestigt ist, wird ein LED-Leiterstreifen 5 zwischen die beiden Auflagestützen 6 der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1 eingelegt zusammen mit der eine Baueinheit bildenden Dekorfolie 7. Die Dekorfolie 7 weist in Längsrichtung alle 2 oder 3 cm Löcher 8 auf zur Aufnahme der LED-Elemente 9. Anschließend wird von oben die transparente Abdeckprofilleiste 2 aufgelegt bzw. aufgedrückt und festgeklemmt infolge Spreizung der beiden entsprechend elastisch ausgebildeten Halteschenkel 10. Diese hintergreifen die beiden Vorsprünge 11, die an die beiden U-Schenkel 12 der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1 angeformt sind. Damit ist nun sowohl die Lage der Dekorfolie 7 wie auch des damit vorzugsweise festverbundenen LED-Leiterstreifens 5 fixiert, ohne daß es weiterer Mittel bedürfte. Dasselbe gilt für die Abdeckprofilleiste 2 selbst.The carrier frame profile strip 1 consists of a known AIMgSi light metal alloy, but an embodiment in the form of an extruded or injection molded plastic part is also possible. The floor is not smooth, but has a fine profile so that the lighting strip can be glued quickly and easily. Of course, a screw connection is also conceivable. After the support frame profile strip 1 is fastened, an LED conductor strip 5 is inserted between the two support supports 6 of the support frame profile strip 1 together with the decorative film 7 forming a structural unit. The decorative film 7 has holes 8 every 2 or 3 cm in the longitudinal direction for receiving the LED Elements 9. Subsequently, the transparent cover profile strip 2 is placed or pressed on and clamped due to the spreading of the two correspondingly elastic holding legs 10. These engage behind the two projections 11, which are formed on the two U-legs 12 of the support frame profile strip 1. This now fixes both the position of the decorative film 7 and the LED conductor strip 5, which is preferably firmly connected thereto, without the need for further means. The same applies to the cover profile strip 2 itself.

Selbstverständlich kann Form und Dimensionierung der einzelnen Komponenten 1, 2, 5 und 7 einschließlich ihrer Teile bezüglich Material und Gestaltung im Rahmen der Erfindung je nach Verwendungszweck variiert werden. Dies gilt nicht nur für die Anschlußprofilleisten 13, 14 der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1, die U-, T- oder auch schrägwinkelförmige verlaufen können. Dies gilt genauso etwa für die Bauhöhe.Of course, the shape and dimensioning of the individual components 1, 2, 5 and 7 including their parts with regard to material and design can be varied within the scope of the invention depending on the intended use. This applies not only to the connection profile strips 13, 14 of the support frame profile strip 1, which can run in a U, T or oblique angle. This also applies to the overall height.

Die Abdeckprofilleiste 2 endet vor dem Stirnende der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1, um zu verhindern, daß sich die Abdeckprofilleiste 2 bei einer thermischen Längenausdehnung über das Leistenende schiebt oder Verwerfungen erleidet, wenn ein Endstück 4 vorgesehen ist. Der von der Abdeckprofilleiste 2 freigelassene Axialbereich (vgl. "a" in Fig. ) wird nun überdeckt durch die Abdeckkappe 3, die auch noch einen axialen Endbereich der Abdeckprofilleiste 2 überlappt. Die Abdeckkappe 3 ist mit Halteschenkeln 15 ausgebildet, die den Halteschenkeln 10 der Abdeckprofilleiste 2 entsprechen, so daß die Abdeckkappe 3 in gleicher Weise mit der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1 verbindbar ist, wie die Abdeckprofilleiste 2. Allerdings erstrecken sich die Halteschenkel 15 nur über einen kurzen axialen Endbereich der Abdeckkappe 3. Die Abdeckkappe 3 ist weiterhin mit einem senkrecht nach unten ausgerichteten Steg 16 ausgebildet, der sich gegen das Stirnende der Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1 abstützt. Damit für die Aufnahme des Stegs 16 die Trägerrahmenprofilleiste 1 nicht einer besonderen Bearbeitung durch Fräsen, Klinken oder dgl. unterzogen werden muß, weist das Endstück 4 eine Nische 17 zur Aufnahme dieses Stegs 16 auf, die sich bei der Herstellung des Endstücks 4 problemlos ausformen läßt. Das Endstück 4, das z. B. als Kunststoff-Spritzgußteil ausgebildet ist, weist im übrigen Eingreifzapfen 18 auf, die in die durch die Anschlußprofilleisten 13, 14 gebildeten Hohlräume 19, 20 eingreifen. Ein am freien Kopfende des Endstücks 4 einstückig angeformte Anschlag 21 dient zur stirnseitigen Abstützung der Abdeckkappe 3 und bildet einen optisch ansprechenden Abschluß der Beleuchtungsleiste.The cover profile strip 2 ends in front of the front end of the support frame profile strip 1, in order to prevent the cover profile strip 2 from sliding over the strip end in the event of thermal expansion or from being distorted if an end piece 4 is provided. The axial region left free by the cover profile strip 2 (cf. “a” in FIG.) Is now covered by the cover cap 3, which also overlaps an axial end region of the cover profile strip 2. The cover cap 3 is formed with holding legs 15 which correspond to the holding legs 10 of the cover profile strip 2, so that the cover cap 3 can be connected to the support frame profile strip 1 in the same way as the cover profile strip 2. However, the holding legs 15 only extend over a short axial end region the cap 3. The cap 3 is further formed with a vertically downwardly oriented web 16, which is supported against the front end of the support frame profile 1. So that the support frame profile strip 1 does not have to be subjected to special machining by milling, latching or the like for receiving the web 16, the end piece 4 has a niche 17 for receiving this web 16, which can be easily formed in the manufacture of the end piece 4 . The end piece 4, the z. B. is designed as a plastic injection molded part, has on the other engaging pin 18 which engage in the cavities 19, 20 formed by the connecting profile strips 13, 14. A stop 21 integrally formed on the free head end of the end piece 4 serves to support the cover cap 3 at the end face and forms a visually appealing termination of the lighting strip.

Die neue Beleuchtungsleiste läßt sich, wenn sie entsprechend kleindimensioniert wird, ohne größeren Aufwand bündig in Mittel- oder Hochflor-Teppichböden verlegen, wie sie z. B. in Passagierschiffen Verwendung finden. Dabei können die Anschlußprofilleisten 13, 14 als ein nach links und rechts offenes U gestaltet sein zur beidseitigen Aufnahme der Teppichbodenkanten.The new lighting strip, if it is appropriately small-sized, can be installed flush in medium or deep-pile carpets without great effort, as is the case, for. B. find use in passenger ships. The connecting profile strips 13, 14 can be designed as a U open to the left and right for receiving the carpet edges on both sides.
