Abstract

Die Leuchte hat ein Leuchtmittel (12), das hinter einer Lichtscheibe (2) angeordnet ist. Als Leuchtmittel (12) wird häufig eine Glühlampe verwendet, mit der die Lichtscheibe (2) nicht voll ausgeleuchtet wird. Um die Leuchte so auszubilden, daß die Lichtscheibe (2) einwandfrei über ihre gesamte Fläche auf einfache Weise ausgeleuchtet wird, ist das Leuchtmittel (12) an einem Teil eines Leuchtenrandes vorgesehen. Hierbei kann die Lichtscheibe (2) über ihre gesamte Fläche zuverlässig ausgeleuchtet werden. Die Leuchte eignet sich als Heckleuchte, die einfach und mit geringen Kosten hergestellt werden kann.
