  • OLED Organic LEDs, hereinafter referred to as OLED have been known for some years and have been used mainly in the display area. The reason for this is that the luminous flux emitted by the OLEDs was not sufficient until some time ago for general lighting purposes. OLEDs could therefore only be used for additional lighting or effect lighting. In addition, until a few years ago, OLED manufacturing costs were so high that use for general lighting purposes was not economical. Recently, however, more and more effective OLEDs have been developed with increasing luminous efficacy and production costs have steadily declined.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil d'éclairage comportant une plaque support (13) composée d'un matériau au moins en partie translucide, au moins deux moyens d'éclairage OLED (14, 15, 16) conçus sous forme de panneaux OLED, qui reposent tous deux à plat sur la face arrière, opposée à la face émettant la lumière, de la même plaque support (13), des moyens de contact pour la mise en contact de chacun des pôles des panneaux OLED, des moyens de fixation pour la fixation des panneaux OLED sur la plaque support ainsi que des moyens d'alimentation électrique des moyens d'éclairage OLED. Selon l'invention, une deuxième plaque, qui est disposée sur la face arrière du panneau OLED (14, 15, 16) opposée à la plaque support (13), sert de plaque de couverture (12), et les moyens de contact (21) pour la mise en contact des panneaux OLED se trouvent sur cette plaque de couverture (12). La solution selon l'invention réalise un appareil d'éclairage qui assure un couplage de lumière efficace de la lumière émise par les diodes électroluminescentes organiques (OLED) et une distribution uniforme de la lumière sur la surface de la plaque support rayonnant la lumière, dont la construction est relativement simple et qui a une esthétique attrayante. L'appareil d'éclairage selon l'invention peut être, par exemple, une suspension, un lustre, un dispositif d'éclairage intégré dans un plafond, un lampadaire ou une lampe de table.
