Description

INDUSTRIAL INVENTION DESCRIPTION FORM

DESCRIPTION of the industrial invention entitled Door-Lamp: wooden door with integrated lighting system

TEXT OF THE DESCRIPTION

Field of application: immovable buildings - doors

State of the Art: no similar documented solution

Technical problem: inserting lighting fixtures in a residential door; allow easy assembly of the appliances for safe maintenance; provide for a safe and versatile electrical system without fixed connections between the parts.

Solutions to the technical problem: a 12 Volt transformer connected to the electrical line of the house, positioned on the horizontal jamb, conveys, through the upper hinge which also acts as a connector, the very low voltage electrical flow inside the door. From here a cable powers the main switch positioned behind the extractable block of the lock, a position that allows easy extraction and maintenance.

The cables that power the lighting fixtures depart from the switch.

Lighting fixtures with LED technology were chosen to promote energy saving, versatility, durability and, last but not least, the low emission temperature of light radiation inside the structure.

They are housed in mobile elements in Spruce wood with a minimum thickness of 3cm, suitably milled, pre-shaped into rectangular shapes with two flaps in the head to be set, inserting and extracting them from the cut of the door, with a simple male-female system, inside specific compartments obtained in the frame and secured in their position by two pins with helical thread with two hexagonal nuts to be screwed on the head.

A contact switch is positioned between the external part of one of the two fins and the frame which, once the element has been inserted into the compartment, activates the system under the control of the main switch.

All this guarantees easy and safe maintenance of the individual parts without the use of tools.

Holes or cuts will be made on the finishing panels (according to the requested design) from which - through more or less transparent or colored plexiglass inserts - filters the light of the LEDs.

It is possible to insert luminous information of any kind (for example the emergency exits).

List of Figures: Tav.l, Tav.2, Tav, 3

Description of one or more embodiments: as indicated in the attached drawings, the system configuration is variable and adapts to any request.

Table 1 shows one of the possible configurations with three light points but, as mentioned, the light points can be different in shape and quantity and can be positioned differently within the Fir wood elements in which they are housed (also they are subject to dimensional variations) to satisfy any customer request.

Table 2 shows the variant which differs from the first solution only for the type of transformer-main switch connection. In the first solution (Table 1) the connection occurs through the upper hinge which acts as a conductor, while in the variant (Table 2) it occurs through a contact switch positioned between the horizontal jamb and the door.

The difference between the two solutions is that in the second case the system is activated only and exclusively with the door completely closed.

Description of the designs:

Table 1 - graphic scheme (with numbered list of the main parts);

Table 2 - variant (differs from Table 1 in point (3) replaced by point (3bis);

Table 3 - detail of the pull-out element in Fir wood in which the LEDs are housed;

Operation (see Table 1: the door is made up of fixed parts (the frame and the finishing panels) and moving parts (the elements in Fir wood in which the LEDs are housed) and an electrical system that starts from a 12 Volt transformer (1) with life-saving fuse (2) positioned in the horizontal jamb, passes through the upper hinge (3) (which acts as an electrical conductor) and reaches the main switch (4), positioned behind the extractable lock of the lock (5), to start again, from here, towards the lighting devices housed in the moving parts (6).

The moving parts are pre-shaped elements in fir wood in rectangular shapes with two fins in the headboard to be set with a simple male-female system in special compartments made in the frame (7). Helical pins run through the lugs and hex nuts secure them to the frame (8). Once the Fir wood elements are fixed to the frame, the contact switches (9) guarantee the activation of the system under the control of the main switch.

All sensitive parts are removable and can be maintained separately

Industrial application: Î “invention can be realized in a serial way by providing a specific typology of configurations.

Advantages: it enriches the door with a further function, that of furnishing lighting and, in certain cases, of luminous information and safety signs.

Variants (see Table 21; the connection between the transformer (1) and the main switch (4) takes place via a contact switch (3bis) in place of the hinge as in point (3) of Table L.

Claims (2)

CLAIMS 1. Wooden door with integrated lighting system consisting of a 12Volt electronic transformer (1) with life-saving fuse (2) located in a cavity of the horizontal jamb and connected by means of a three-pole cable protected by a fireproof duct, through the upper hinge (3) which acts as an electrical conductor, to the main switch (4) located at the height of the handle, behind the removable lock of the lock (5), from which the cables that power the light points with LED technology start, housed in mobile elements in Spruce wood ( 6) pre-shaped to be fitted with a simple male-female system inside special compartments made in the fixed frame (7) of the door, secured in their position by means of helical threaded pins with hexagonal nuts to be screwed on the head (8), and connected to the electrical system of the door under the control of the main switch via a contact switch (9). 2. Wooden door with integrated lighting system as per claim 1. where the electrical connection with the main switch is via a contact switch (3bis) which guarantees the activation of the system when the door is closed.
