Abstract

An extensive light-guide arrangement for room partitioning or for mounting on a surface with lateral light-feed and light radiation, at least perpendicular to its surface. The light radiation is limited to raster lines, surfaces or points, between which an undistorted vista is possible through the light-guide arrangement.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung um zwischen zwei Räumlichkeiten eine optische Trennung wahlweise zu erzeugen oder einen Durchblick zu ermöglichen.The invention relates to a device for an optical between two rooms Either create separation or allow a view.

Derzeit ist es üblich, Raumtrennungen durch Vorhänge oder mechanische Blenden vorzunehmen, die einen Durchblick eröffnen oder verhindern.It is currently common to use curtains or mechanical blinds to separate rooms that open up or prevent a perspective.

Derartige Einrichtungen haben jedoch den Nachteil, dass die mechanische Verstellung der Elemente aufwendig und störanfällig ist.However, such devices have the disadvantage that the mechanical adjustment the elements are complex and prone to failure.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es deshalb eine Möglichkeit zu finden, einen Raum optisch abzutrennen oder zu unterteilen, ohne dass mechanisch bewegte Elemente benötigt werden.The object of the invention is therefore to find a way to optically a room separate or divide without the need for mechanically moving elements become.

Zur Lösung der Erfindungsaufgabe werden erfindungsgemäß Netze von linienförmigen Streifen oder kleinen z. B. punktförmigen Rasterflächen benutzt, die in einem geringen Abstand zueinander angeordnet sind und die in einer ebenen oder leicht gewölbten Fläche angeordnet sind. Diese Fläche dient als Trennfläche zwischen den optisch zu trennenden Räumen.To solve the problem of the invention, networks of linear are used Strips or small z. B. punctiform grid areas used in a low Are spaced from each other and that in a flat or slightly arched Surface are arranged. This surface serves as a separating surface between the optically separating rooms.

Die zwischen den Streifen oder Rasterflächen freibleibenden Flächen sind klar durchsichtig gestaltet, so dass ein unverzerrter Durchblick ermöglicht wird.The areas that remain free between the stripes or grid areas are clear transparently designed so that an undistorted view is possible.

Erfindungsgemäß sind die linienförmigen Streifen oder Rasterflächen selbstleuchtend ausgeführt. Dadurch wird bewirkt, dass bei eingeschalteter Lichtabstrahlung der linienförmigen Streifen oder der Rasterflächen sich ein Lichtschleier ausbildet, der einen Durchblick verhindert oder zumindest dadurch erschwert, dass die Kontraste des dahinter liegenden Raumes vermindert werden.According to the invention, the linear strips or grid areas are self-luminous executed. This has the effect that when the light radiation is switched on, the line-shaped stripes or the grid surfaces, a light curtain forms that one Perspective prevented or at least made difficult by the fact that the contrasts of the the space behind it can be reduced.

Die Lichtabstrahlung der dafür vorgesehenen Flächen kann auf an sich bekannte Weise dadurch erreicht werden, dass diese Flächen auf oder innerhalb von klar transparenten Lichtleitscheiben angeordnet sind, in die Licht eingespeist wird. Die Lichteinspeisung kann durch eine oder eine Vielzahl von Lampen in die Lichteintrittskanten erfolgen. Besonders bevorzugt ist die Einspeisung durch lineare Lichtleiter. Die lichtabstrahlenden Flächen sind so ausgebildet, dass sie die Totalreflexion durch die das Licht in den Lichtleitscheiben gehalten wird, unterbrochen wird. Eine weitere Möglichkeit besteht darin, ein Gewebe oder eine Parallelanordnung von Seitenlicht abstrahlenden Lichtleitern zu benutzen, die in der Raumtrennungsebene angeordnet sind.The light radiation from the surfaces provided for this purpose can be done in a manner known per se can be achieved in that these surfaces on or within clearly transparent Light guide disks are arranged, into which light is fed. The light feed can be done by one or a plurality of lamps in the light entry edges. Feeding through linear light guides is particularly preferred. The light-emitting surfaces are designed so that they reflect the total reflection through the the light is held in the light guide discs is interrupted. Another Possibility is a fabric or a parallel arrangement of sidelights to use radiating light guides arranged in the room separation level  are.

Eine Weiterentwicklung des Erfindungsgedankens ist die Einspeisung in die Lichtleiteranordnung mit farbigem bzw. wechselnd farbigem Licht, um entsprechende Raumakzente zu setzen.A further development of the idea of the invention is the feeding into the Light guide arrangement with colored or alternately colored light, in order to corresponding To set room accents.

Die Erfindungsgemäße Anordnung ist in den folgenden Beispielen erläutert.The arrangement according to the invention is explained in the following examples.

Bild 1 zeigt einen Raum 6 mit einem Beobachter 8 der durch ein Fenster 7 von dem Raum 5 getrennt ist. Figure 1 shows a room 6 with an observer 8 which is separated from the room 5 by a window 7 .

Wird die Lichtabstrahlung der Rasterflächen auf der Lichtleitscheibe eingeschaltet, so wird der Einblick in den Raum 5 verschleiert. Ist die Lichtabstrahlung ausgeschaltet, so wird ein wesentlich besserer Durchblick ermöglicht.If the light radiation of the grid areas on the light guide pane is switched on, the view into room 5 is obscured. If the light radiation is switched off, a much better view is made possible.

Bild 2 zeigt die Lichtleitscheibe 7, in deren mindestens eine Lichteintrittskante 2 das Licht aus den Lichtquellen 1, z. B. lineare Lichtleiter eingespeist wird. Figure 2 shows the light guide 7 , in whose at least one light entry edge 2, the light from the light sources 1 , z. B. linear light guide is fed.

Auf der Oberfläche oder innerhalb des Volumens der Lichtleitscheibe sind Rasterflächen 3 angeordnet, die bei eingeschalteter Lichtquelle Licht abstrahlen. Zwischen den Rasterflächen sind klar transparente Flächen 4 freigehalten, durch die ein klarer Durchblick möglich ist.Raster surfaces 3 are arranged on the surface or within the volume of the light guide disk, which emit light when the light source is switched on. Clearly transparent areas 4 are kept between the grid areas, through which a clear view is possible.

Bild 3 zeigt lineare Lichtleiter 10, die seitlich Licht abstrahlen und die in der Raumtrennungsebene 9 so angeordnet sind, dass ein Durchblick zwischen den Lichtleitern möglich ist. In die Lichtleiter wird gemeinsam durch die Lichtquelle 1 Licht eingestrahlt. Die linienförmige Anordnung kann auch durch ein Gewebe einander kreuzender Lichtleiter ersetzt werden. Figure 3 shows linear light guides 10 which emit light from the side and which are arranged in the room separation plane 9 so that a view between the light guides is possible. Light is radiated into the light guide together by the light source 1 . The line-shaped arrangement can also be replaced by a fiber-crossing light guide.
