Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un caisson lumineux du type comprenant au moins une paroi latérale et une paroi inférieure translucides constituées d'une nappe translucide, ce caisson étant notamment destiné à être disposé à côté de caissons du même type, de façon à constituer une matrice d'éclairage.The present invention relates to a light box of the type comprising at least one translucent lateral wall and a lower wall constituted by a translucent sheet, this box being in particular intended to be placed next to boxes of the same type, so as to constitute a matrix of 'lighting.
On sait que les caissons lumineux de ce type, lorsqu'ils sont de faibles dimensions, possèdent une rigidité suffisante permettant à leur utilisateur de les manipuler sans risque de leur causer des dommages irréversibles. Tel n'est malheureusement pas le cas lorsque les dimensions de ces caissons dépassent certaines limites, et l'on est alors contraint de les renforcer avec des éléments raidisseurs. Ces derniers sont habituellement constitués de barres transversales, assurant la jonction notamment de deux côtés opposés du caisson, qui s'étendent sensiblement dans le plan de la face supérieure de ceux-ci, entre la nappe translucide et les moyens d'éclairage, si bien que ces derniers projettent l'ombre portée des éléments raidisseurs sur la nappe translucide, ombre portée visible des utilisateurs du local. Un caisson comportant les caractéristiques du préambule de la revendication 1 est connu du document
De plus, lorsqu'il est souhaitable que les parois du caisson lumineux soient entièrement transparentes, il n'est plus possible de placer sur la face inférieure du caisson des éléments raidisseurs, tel que par exemple un cadre métallique afin de maintenir la rigidité du caisson. En effet ce cadre métallique sera visible au travers des parois latérales et/ou de la paroi inférieure du caisson, ce qui nuit fortement à l'aspect esthétique de celui-ci.In addition, when it is desirable that the walls of the light box are completely transparent, it is no longer possible to place on the underside of the box stiffening elements, such as for example a metal frame to maintain the rigidity of the box . Indeed, this metal frame will be visible through the side walls and / or the bottom wall of the box, which greatly affects the aesthetic appearance thereof.
Un but de la présente invention est de proposer un caisson lumineux comprenant au moins une paroi latérale et une paroi inférieure translucides sans que les moyens de rigidification dudit caisson ne soient visibles au travers de ces parois.An object of the present invention is to provide a light box comprising at least one translucent side wall and a lower wall without the means of rigidification of said box are visible through these walls.
La présente invention propose un caisson lumineux possédant une paroi latérale et une paroi inférieure translucides constituées par la même nappe translucide.The present invention provides a light box having a translucent side wall and a bottom wall formed by the same translucent sheet.
La présente invention propose également un caisson lumineux possédant une paroi latérale et une paroi inférieure translucides de couleurs différentes.The present invention also provides a light box having a translucent side wall and a bottom wall of different colors.
La présente invention propose un caisson lumineux possédant une paroi latérale et une paroi inférieure translucides dont les intersections peuvent être mis en valeur par des trais de lumière colorés.The present invention provides a light box having a translucent side wall and a bottom wall whose intersections can be highlighted by colored light trails.
La présente invention a ainsi pour objet un caisson lumineux destiné, notamment en association avec d'autres caissons du même type, à constituer une paroi lumineuse telle que par exemple un plafond. De par ses propriétés, le caisson lumineux selon l'invention pourra être posé en débord (c.à.d. que tout ou partie de ses parois latérales pourra être visible).The present invention thus relates to a light box intended, in particular in association with other boxes of the same type, to form a light wall such as for example a ceiling. Because of its properties, the light box according to the invention can be placed overflowing (ie all or part of its side walls can be visible).
La présente invention a ainsi pour objet un caisson lumineux possédant au moins une paroi latérale et une paroi inférieure translucides constituées d'une nappe translucide ladite nappe translucide étant mise en tension par un panneau transparent ou translucide dont le chant inférieur est en appui, à l'intérieur du caisson lumineux au niveau de l'intersection de ladite paroi inférieure et de ladite paroi latérale, le caisson lumineux comportant une source lumineuse, remarquable en ce que le plan médian de la tranche du panneau translucide ou transparent est sensiblement confondu avec le plan passant par le centre de la source lumineuse et l'intersection entre la paroi inférieure et la paroi latérale.The subject of the present invention is thus a light box having at least one translucent lateral wall and a lower wall constituted by a translucent sheet, said translucent sheet being tensioned by a transparent or translucent panel whose lower edge bears in contact with the light. inside the light box at the intersection of said bottom wall and said side wall, the light box comprising a light source, remarkable in that the median plane of the edge of the translucent or transparent panel is substantially coincident with the plane passing through the center of the light source and the intersection between the bottom wall and the side wall.
La nappe translucide est fixée à un longeron au niveau du bord latéral supérieur de la paroi latérale. Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, ce longeron est une lisse, bien connue de l'Homme du Métier dans le domaine des plafonds tendus qui est utilisée couramment pour maintenir la toile d'un plafond tendu.The translucent web is attached to a spar at the upper side edge of the sidewall. According to a particular embodiment, this spar is a smooth, well known to the skilled person in the field of stretch ceilings which is commonly used to maintain the canvas of a stretch ceiling.
Le panneau transparent ou translucide selon l'invention peut être en polymère ou en verre. Parmi les polymères préférés pour la réalisation des panneaux translucides ou transparents selon l'invention, on citera plus particulièrement le polyméthacrylate de méthyle bien connu de l'Homme du Métier sous les dénominations commerciales de Plexiglas®, Altuglas® mais aussi sous les noms de plastique acrylique, Perspex, Limacryl, Vitroflex, Metacrilat ou Lucite.The transparent or translucent panel according to the invention may be made of polymer or glass. Among the preferred polymers for producing translucent or transparent panels according to the invention, mention will be made more particularly of polymethyl methacrylate well known to those skilled in the art under the trade names Plexiglas®, Altuglas® but also under the names of plastic Acrylic, Perspex, Limacryl, Vitroflex, Metacrilat or Lucite.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, le panneau translucide ou transparent selon l'invention pourra être coloré afin de donner à la paroi latérale une couleur différente de celle de la paroi inférieure.According to a particular embodiment, the translucent or transparent panel according to the invention may be colored in order to give the side wall a color different from that of the lower wall.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, le panneau translucide ou transparent utilisé dans le caisson selon l'invention est fixé au longeron sur lequel est fixé la nappe translucide.According to another embodiment of the invention, the translucent or transparent panel used in the box according to the invention is attached to the spar on which is fixed the translucent sheet.
Selon une réalisation préférée de l'invention, le caisson lumineux comprendra deux parois latérales translucides. Ainsi la présente invention concerne également un caisson lumineux remarquable en ce qu'il comprend une deuxième paroi latérale translucide, sur la face opposée à la première, constituée de la même nappe translucide fixée à des longerons au niveau des bords latéraux supérieurs des parois latérales et mise en tension par deux panneaux transparents ou translucides dont les chants inférieurs sont en appui, à l'intérieur du caisson, au niveau des intersections de la paroi inférieure et des parois latérales.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the light box will comprise two translucent side walls. Thus the present invention also relates to a remarkable light box in that it comprises a second translucent side wall, on the opposite side to the first, consisting of the same translucent sheet attached to the longitudinal members at the upper lateral edges of the side walls and tensioning by two transparent or translucent panels whose lower edges are supported, inside the box, at the intersections of the lower wall and the side walls.
On décrira ci-après à titre d'exemple non limitatif, deux formes d'exécution de la présente invention, en référence à la figure unique qui est une vue en coupe verticale d'un caisson lumineux suivant l'invention.Hereinafter will be described by way of nonlimiting example, two embodiments of the present invention, with reference to the single figure which is a vertical sectional view of a light box according to the invention.

Selon un mode réalisation particulièrement préféré, le panneau transparent ou translucide 5 est placé de telle façon qu'il puisse guider la lumière provenant de la source lumineuse 8 vers l'intersection de la paroi inférieure 3 avec l'une des parois latérales 2. Dans ce mode de réalisation, les bords de la paroi inférieure 3 en contact avec les parois latérales 2 sont mis en valeur par des raies de lumière. Ces raies de lumière peuvent être d'une couleur différente de celle de la nappe translucide 4 lorsque le panneau transparent ou translucide 5 est coloré. Ainsi, la présente invention concerne également un caisson lumineux 1 remarquable en ce que le plan médian de la tranche du panneau translucide ou transparent 5 (symbolise en coupe par l'axe xx' sur la
