Definitions
- the invention relates to a chandelier curtain which, due to its design, results in a particularly good light distribution and scattering and, moreover, produces new light effects in slow movements, such as occur with chandelier curtain parts even with little air movement.
- the curtain according to the invention consists of a support rod 1 which in the example shown has a circular cross section and a constant cross section over its entire length.
- the surface of the support rod is highly polished; it consists of metal, such as steel, brass, aluminum alloys of sufficient strength, and can, in order to improve the reflectivity of its outer surface, have an appropriate covering, such as chrome, rhodium or the like.
- the support rod 1 consists of a threaded rod 2 onto which a metal tube 3 with a polished outer surface is pushed.
- a decorative nut 4 for example in the form of a ball, is screwed, at the upper end there is a ring nut 5, by means of which the curtain can be attached to the chandelier or the like.
- a support plate 6 belongs to each of the two nuts 4, 5.
- the two support plates are the same in the example shown, but can also have a different appearance.
- the support plates 6 have essentially the shape of a trough, the peripheral edge 7 holding the outer rods 8 made of transparent material with a high-gloss surface together with the support rod.
- the outer rods have a circular cross section and the same diameter, which is constant over their entire length and which is somewhat larger than that of the support rod 1. They are made of glass with a preferably high refractive index; but they can also be made of synthetic glass (plexiglass, polymethacrylic acid ester and the like).
- a square spacer 9 is provided in each support plate 6, which with the interposition of washers 10 by means of the two nuts 4th and 5 is pulled against the metal tube 3.
- the length of the outer rods 8 is slightly less than the distance between the bases of the support plates 6 from one another, so that even when the nuts 4, 5 are tightened strongly, the outer rods 8 cannot be subjected to any pressure load which could lead to damage or breakage.
- the arrangement of the transparent outer rods 8 at a mutual distance and at a distance from the high-gloss surface of the support rod 1 and the choice of the diameter or cross section of the outer rods is at least the same, but better than that of the support rod 1, in particular when the curtain is illuminated by side light sources, such as the inFig. 1 indicated light bulb 11, due to the multiple light reflections on the surfaces of the support rod and outer rods and the multiple refraction of the direct and reflected light in the outer rods as a special effect, especially the impression that the outer rods themselves would be the light sources.
- the support rod or only a few outer rods, but also all outer rods can have cross sections that deviate from the circular shape, e.g. the shape of polygons and preferably regular polygons.
- the support rod and / or or some or all of the outer rods can be twisted about the longitudinal axis when they are formed with a polygonal cross section. This twist can be the same for all bars, but there is also an alternation of the twist direction, e.g. from outer rod to outer rod, preferably with the torsion bar not twisted.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Lusterbehang, welcher durch seine Ausbildung eine besonders gute Lichtverteilung und Streuung ergibt und überdies bei langsamen Bewegungen, wie sie bei Lusterbehangteilen schon bei geringer Luftbewegung auftreten, neue Lichteffekte hervorbringt.The invention relates to a chandelier curtain which, due to its design, results in a particularly good light distribution and scattering and, moreover, produces new light effects in slow movements, such as occur with chandelier curtain parts even with little air movement.
Es ist Gegenstand der Erfindung einen Lusterbehang vorzusehen, bei welchem Stäbe aus durchscheinendem oder durchsichtigem Material von einem durch eine Lichtquelle angestrahlten Tragstab, dessen Oberfläche reflektierend ist, direktes und reflektiertes Licht erhalten, welches mehrfach gebrochen wurde, wodurch die Außenstäbe den Eindruck erwecken , als wären sie selbst Lichtquellen.
- Es zeigen Fig. 1 den erfindungsgemäßen Behang teilweise geschnitten,
- Fig. 2 einen Querschnitt und
- Fig. 3 einen Längsschnitt eines Endes.
- 1 shows the curtain according to the invention, partly in section,
- Fig. 2 shows a cross section and
- Fig. 3 shows a longitudinal section of one end.
Der erfindungsgemäße Behang besteht aus einem Tragstab 1, der beim gezeigten Beispiel kreisförmigen Querschnitt und über seine ganze Länge gleichbleibenden Querschnitt hat. Die Oberfläche des Tragstabes ist hochglanzpoliert; er besteht aus Metall, etwa Stahl, Messing, Aluminiumlegierungen ausreichender Festigkeit, und kann zur Verbesserung der Reflexionsfähigkeit seiner Mantelfläche einen entsprechenden Oberzug, etwa Chrom, Rhodium oder ähnliches tragen.The curtain according to the invention consists of a
Der Tragstab 1 besteht aus einer Gewindestange 2, auf welche ein Metallrohr 3 mit polierter Außenfläche aufgeschoben ist. Auf das untere Ende der Gewindestange 2 ist eine Ziermutter 4, etwa in Kugelform, aufgeschraubt, am oberen Ende sitzt eine Ringmutter 5, mittels welcher der Behang am Luster oder dergleichen befestigt werden kann.The
Zu jeder der beiden Muttern 4,5 gehört eine Tragplatte 6. Die beiden Tragplatten sind beim gezeigten Beispiel gleich, können aber auch unterschiedliches Aussehen haben. Die Tragplatten 6 haben im wesentlichen Wannenform, wobei der umlaufende Rand 7 die Außenstäbe 8 aus durchsichtigem Material mit hochglänzender Oberfläche wie auch den Tragstab zusammenhält. Die Außenstäbe haben beim gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel kreisförmigen Querschnitt und untereinander gleichen, über ihre ganze Länge gleichbleibenden Durchmesser, welcher etwas größer ist, als jener der Tragstange 1. Sie bestehen aus Glas von vorzugsweise hohem Brechungskoeffizienten; sie können aber auch aus Kunstglas (Plexiglas, Polymethacrylsäureester u.dgl.) hergestellt sein.A
Zur Halterung der vier Außenstäbe 8 im richtigen gegenseitigen Abstand sowie im Abstand vom Tragstab 1 ist in jeder Tragplatte 6 ein quadratisches Distanzstück 9 vorgesehen, welches unter Zwischenlage von Beilagscheiben 10 mittels der beiden Muttern 4 und 5 gegen das Metallrohr 3 gezogen wird. Die Länge der Außenstäbe 8 ist etwas geringer als der Abstand der Böden der Tragplatten 6 voneinander, sodaß auch bei starkem Anziehen der Muttern 4,5 die Außenstäbe 8 keiner Druckbelastung, die zur Beschädigung oder zum Bruch führen könnten, unterliegen können.To hold the four
Durch die Anordnung der durchsichtigen Außenstäbe 8 in gegenseitigem Abstand sowie im Abstand von der hochglänzenden Oberfläche des Tragstabes 1 und die Wahl des Durchmessers bzw. Querschnittes der Außenstäbe zumindest gleich, besser aber größer als jener des Tragstabes 1 ergibt sich, insbesondere bei Anstrahlung des Behanges durch seitliche Lichtquellen, wie etwa die inFig. 1 angedeutete Glühbirne 11, infolge der mehrfachen Lichtreflexionen an den Oberflächen von Tragstab und Außenstäben sowie durch die mehrfache Brechung des direkten und des reflektierten Lichts in den Außenstäben als besondere Wirkung vor allem der Eindruck, daß die Außenstäbe selbst die Lichtquellen wären.The arrangement of the transparent
Des weiteren wird eine weitgehend gleichmäßige Lichtverteilung erzielt, und zwar auch in hohen Räumen, bei entsprechend großer Länge des erfindungsgemäßen Behanges.Furthermore, a largely uniform light distribution is achieved, even in high rooms, with a correspondingly long length of the curtain according to the invention.
Der beschriebene Behang, kann, ohne daß hiezu der Rahmen der Erfindung verlassen werden müßte, verschiedentlich abgewandelt werden. So können der Tragstab oder nur einige Außenstäbe, aber auch alle Außenstäbe Querschnitte haben, die von der Kreisform abweichen, z.B. die Form von Vielecken und hiebei vorzugsweise von regelmäßigen Vielecken. In weiterer Ausbildung können der Tragstab und bzw. oder einige oder alle der Außenstäbe bei Ausbildung mit vieleckigem Querschnitt um die Längsachse verwunden sein. Diese Verwindung kann bei allen Stäben im gleichen Sinn verlaufen, jedoch ist-aber auch ein Abwechseln der Verwindungsrichtung, z.B. von Außenstab zu Außenstab, vorzugsweise bei nichtverwundenem Tragstab, möglich.The curtain described can be modified in various ways without leaving the scope of the invention. For example, the support rod or only a few outer rods, but also all outer rods, can have cross sections that deviate from the circular shape, e.g. the shape of polygons and preferably regular polygons. In a further embodiment, the support rod and / or or some or all of the outer rods can be twisted about the longitudinal axis when they are formed with a polygonal cross section. This twist can be the same for all bars, but there is also an alternation of the twist direction, e.g. from outer rod to outer rod, preferably with the torsion bar not twisted.
Schließlich besteht auch die Möglichkeit, mehrere Behänge der beschriebenen Art um die Lichtquelle herum bzw. um einen Teil derselben anzuordnen, woraus sich eine Gestaltung eines Beleuchtungskörpers ergibt.Finally, there is also the possibility of arranging several curtains of the type described around the light source or around a part thereof, which results in the design of a lighting fixture.
