Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) This invention relates to a decorative lighting device that illuminates a transparent decorative object, particularly one made of glass, by placing a light source in the center thereof.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, this type of lighting has a light source installed within the curved surface of a transparent (or semi-transparent) glass decoration.
Since the light reflected from the inner surface was used only to provide decorative lighting, the light was reflected from the surface, making it impossible to obtain tasteful decorative lighting.

(Problem that the invention aims to solve) Therefore, this invention places a light source in the center of the decoration body, and uses light rays passing through the decoration body to cause the decoration body to emit light from inside, providing beautiful illumination. The idea is to integrate a miniature light source (light source) and a miniature light bulb (auxiliary light source) to obtain decorative illumination that varies with different light sources.

(Means for determining the problem) For this purpose, a base plate on which a large number of miniature bulbs (auxiliary light sources) are arranged in a ring around the light bulb socket of the main light source,
It consists of an insertion opening through which the light bulb (main light source) projects, an accommodation hole around which the auxiliary light source is accommodated, and a glass decoration body with a concave surface facing forward.

(Function) With the above configuration, the light bulb (main light source) and miniature bulb (auxiliary light source) can be lit together or separately,
Different illumination can be produced by reflection on the decorative body.

(Example) To explain this with an example shown in the drawings, 1
is a decorative body made of transparent glass that forms a concave surface facing the front, and is slightly curved radially from the center with a number of petal-shaped protrusions 14, and a light bulb socket 4, which is the main light source, is located in the center. It consists of a light bulb insertion hole 8 into which a light bulb can be inserted, and a miniature light bulb insertion hole 9 around the hole that matches the position of the miniature light bulb 3, which is an auxiliary light source. It has an outer diameter that allows it to fit close to the miniature ball 3 provided. The miniature ball installation part 10 has a height that is almost the same as the thickness from the bottom surface to the top surface of the decorative body 1, and the miniature balls 3 are arranged around it in a ring shape, so that when the decorative body 1 is fitted, the light bulb of the decorative body 1 is The ball insertion hole 9 is formed so that the ball 3 is not damaged by the outer periphery of the insertion hole 8. Above the miniature bulb installation part 10 is a light bulb socket 4.
and a male threaded part 15 is provided on its outer periphery, and a locking tool 6 having a female threaded part 7 is screwed into this male threaded part 15, and the outer diameter of the lower peripheral edge of the locking tool 6 is Make the light bulb insertion hole 4 larger than the position of the bulb insertion hole 9.
When the locking tool 6 is screwed into the base plate 2, the decorative body 1 is clamped and fixed between the locking tool 6 and the upper surface of the base plate 2. Inside the light bulb socket 4, there is a light bulb screw fitting 12 and a contact 1 as usual.
3, and the base plate 2 is fixed to the wall 11 with screws 5.

Since the embodiment of this invention is constructed as described above, electric wires are wired to appropriate positions on the wall 11, and the base plate 2 is fixed thereto with screws 5, and the lighting device of this invention is installed. The decoration body 1 is fitted into the miniature bulb installation portion 10, and the light source of the miniature bulb 3 is positioned within the thickness of the decoration body, and from this it is connected to the light bulb insertion port 4 that protrudes to the left in FIG. The fasteners 6 are screwed together, and the decorative body 1 is held between the base plate 2 and the base plate 2 by the enlarged edges of the fasteners 6.
Thereafter, the light bulb is screwed into the light bulb screw fitting 12 and fixed. This light bulb (not shown) can be a colored light bulb, but if it is an internally reflective light bulb that is conventionally used for decoration, when the light bulb is turned on, the light rays will reflect inside the bulb and go in the opposite direction to decorate the room. The light rays transmitted through the body 1 facilitate the shading of the decorative body on the wall, producing a varied decorative effect. On the other hand, when the miniature bulb 3 lights up, the light beam passes through the wall surrounding the miniature bulb insertion hole 9 of the decoration, reflects inside the surface, reaches the tip, and emits light to the outside, so it appears as if the tip of the decoration is emitting light. visible, its decorative effect is remarkable. Furthermore, since this decorative body 1 can be removed by unscrewing the locking tool, by preparing a decorative body equipped with various light bulb insertion holes 8 and miniature bulb insertion holes 9 of the same diameter, the atmosphere can be adjusted. The decorative body can be easily replaced according to the situation, and in addition, if the peripheral edge of the miniature ball insertion hole 9 is colored or a transparent or translucent colored film is pasted, colored light will be reflected. , a more effective decoration can be obtained.

Furthermore, the miniature bulb 3 can be not only a regular miniature bulb but also a colored bulb or a high-intensity lamp.

The shape of the decorative body is not limited to the one shown in the figure, and it may be deep enough to accommodate the entire light bulb, and the mounting position of the base plate is not limited to the wall, but can also be mounted anywhere on the ceiling or floor. It may be fixed at a suitable location.

Lighting may be done by a separately provided switch, but it is also possible to have a built-in switch that selectively and automatically turns on the light bulb and miniature bulb.

(Effects of the device) As described above, this device incorporates a light bulb as a main light source and a miniature bulb as an auxiliary light source into the same body, so by using this device, a variety of decorative lighting can be obtained. In addition, since the auxiliary light source is emitted inside the decorative body, it has the effect of producing variable illumination.
