Description

Decorative luminous molding and signage.

Object of the invention

The present invention aims at creating a luminous molding that can be used both for decoration in the field of construction, as in the field of signage, and in both vertical and horizontal walls. The basic idea of the present invention is based mainly on giving a new conception or dimension to what we know today as " glass molding (PAVÉS) ", " hollow glass molding ", " hollow pavements ". Currently the glass moldings used in construction, which are also called "translucent concrete", remain in simple partitions, facades, walls, etc ... placed with mortar or other materials, with optical qualities limited to their color natural of each of the glasses used. Each unit of the mentioned moldings can be transparent, translucent, colored, and constructed by different varieties of polymers, glass, glass etc., and constructed by different fusion and sealing techniques.

With the present invention it is intended to extend the  purely constructive qualities of what is known until today for a simple "pavés", giving a new dimension to a translucent hollow brick, and managing to extend its usefulness to visual field of lighting and signaling, which within the design and construction opens possibilities infinitely greater than those achieved to date.

The present invention is characterized by its special configuration and design, allowing a simple embodiment, said moldings of multitude of shapes, sizes and characteristics, getting infinity of Applications.

Therefore the present invention is circumscribes within the field of lighting, signage, architectural design and construction directly affecting the "pave" glass molding manufacturing industry, giving As a result a unique and characteristic product.

Background of the invention

Very different forms are known today of making hollow translucent moldings, and their finished product, but they stay there, in cold units with no life of their own to be used in construction, but to date it is not known that have taken the step of these products to the field of lighting or to signaling.

There are those who place lighting systems conventional aside from these elements, wanting to create a own light effect or unorthodox maneuvers to place light bulbs inside.

The applicant himself has inquired about the principle that is used in the present invention reflected in Utility Model 200401611 on Polymorphic Coating of plasma plates

Explanation and description of the invention

To understand and justify the elements characteristic of the invention, both the forms of get the cited molded, as some of its possible Applications.

The object of the present invention can be arrive by two routes, one by a chain manufacturing where place and apply the components of the intended light molding,  or directly acting on a pavement that is in the Traditional market, for use by anyone.

If we start from the last assumption, we find ourselves with the need to make one or two holes in the central body of the pavement that gives the central sealed chamber, to incorporate a access and sealing cannula, as well as for one or more electrodes, that can be placed in various places, inside or outside of the pavement.

After the installation of these elements by fusion, the hollow cannula access is used to perform a partial vacuum therein, then are introduced therein by said cannula a mixture of noble gases and vapors nature inert that they are capable of ionizing , that is to say, emitting light after connecting the electrodes and having been exposed to the passage of the electric current of a voltage booster circuit, both of alternating current continuous cone.

Once sealed the pavement with the gas at low pressure inside, and is fed by the electric voltage, it ionizes and produces bright rays and luminous forms inside. "Ionized gas in this state is called plasma ."

If for example we put in contact posing the hand or a foot in the glass of the pave, this will attract the rays and plasma forms towards her, creating beautiful electrical forms, depending on the potential applied, the material and forms of the electrodes, or the pressures and quantities of gases / vapors existing.

Said plasma light emission can be enhanced, with the fixation inside the salt pavement luminous doped, like zinc sulphide doped in very different ways diverse. The pavement will be fed by one or several transformers of electric current depending on its number and power consumed

Advantages of the invention

The main advantages of the present invention They are as follows:

We can start from a product that is in the market, although it would always be better to start a manufacturing in chain

Said result may be used both in the outside as in the interior of freshwater underwater waters and salty, since all the systems that make up the plate are sealed for such purposes.

Although the pavement was broken by misuse, no there would be a risk of electric shock, since the intensity of the  Voltage used is practically negligible.

There are also no risks due to the possible issuance of the gases of the pavement chamber since they are chemically from inert nature and its quantity is also very small.

Given the technical characteristics of the pavement, It is prepared to be installed on the floor and can be stepped on, resisting a considerable weight without breaking.

Said pavement may be constructed in the form, thicknesses and sizes more suitable for each situation, being able to be installed as if it were a puzzle.

You can build large posters murals, could even be done by applying this system a giant movie or television screen. As well as in the field of signaling can be used these elements in the airports

The adaptation to an assembly line will be simple and its minimum costs, comparing with the advantages obtained, and opening a multitude of application fields.

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that is being performing, and in order to help a better understanding of their characteristics, is accompanied by the present specification, of a set of planes in whose figures, illustratively and not limiting, the most significant details of the invention.

Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a open molded body to which by way of example they have incorporated two access and sealed cannulas (2), and an electrode internal (3) with a pre-established form of a circle, being able to Be this in any way capricious. To place electrodes with special forms, it will be necessary to do it in an assembly line, since if the electrode is introduced through a hole we will see limited to the use of simple electrodes.

Figure 2 Shows a perspective view similar to the previous one, but in this case the cannula (2) and the electrode will be placed on the upper edge of the molded body (1) and must also be performed on an assembly line. In this case when faced to be fused the molded body (1) to its complement (5) we will get the cannula and the electrode are well fixed and welded to the final body that It will form the pavés.

Figure 3 shows a sectional view of the body  molded (1) facing its molded body (5) complementary a moment before being merged according to the indicated approach. In this figure has represented the cannula (2) in one position, but This can be placed anywhere on the walls of the molded as long as it fulfills its function of access to the interior of it, since it will finally be sealed.

Figure 4 shows a perspective view and a pavement assembly section, once the two are merged molded (1) and (5) with its cannula (2) and electrode (3), with its external conductor (4), its elevator circuit and controller voltage (6), the corresponding plug (7) including the socket mains current (8). The internal chamber (11) will be inserted the low pressure gases that will ionize with the passage of tension electric producing attractive luminous forms. In the perspective shows a partial cut to see inside the pavés with the electrode (3) inside.
