Abstract
Description
Lichterketten, wie sie beispielsweise zur Illumination von Weihnachtsbäumen verwendet werden, bestehen im Wesentlichen aus einer einteiligen Kabelführung, an der in fortlaufender Reihenfolge Leuchten an einem stromführenden Kabel aneinander gereiht sind und die am Ende der Lichterkette mittels ein es Steckers der Stromzuführung in eine Steckdose einsteckbar sind.Fairy lights, such as those used for illuminating Christmas trees essentially consist of a one-piece cable routing, on which in Continuous order Luminaires lined up on a live cable and are at the end of the chain of lights by means of a plug of the power supply in one Socket can be inserted.
Bei dieser Art der Lichterketten ergibt es sich, je nach Größe des damit zu dekorierenden Objektes, wie z. B. eines Weihnachtsbaumes, daß bei der Dekoration zunächst der mittige Anfang gefunden werden muß, um dann die Lichterkette rings um den Baum an den Ästen zu befestigen, um dann an der Steckdose die Kabel enden so zusammen zu führen, daß der Stromkreislauf geschlossen werden kann.With this type of fairy lights, it results depending on the size of the decoration Object, such as B. a Christmas tree that when decorating the middle The beginning must be found, then the string of lights around the tree on the branches to fix, then to bring the cables together at the socket so that the circuit can be closed.
Der in dem Schutzanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, eine Lichterkette zu schaffen, die bei der Montage die Möglichkeit bietet, daß die an dieser Lichterkette befindlichen Leuchten unabhängig von der Größe des mit einer Lichterkette zu dekorierenden Objektes, z. B. Weihnachtsbaumes, so anzubringen sind, daß die Kabel führung grundsätzlich vom Installationsanfang ausgehenden Punkt beginnend, des zu dekorierenden Objektes erfolgen kann, womit einhergeht, daß alle Leuchten gleichmäßig in alle Richtungen verteilt werden können, ohne, daß das Kabel letztlich nicht an der strom zuführenden Steckdose ankommt.The invention specified in the protection claim 1 is based on the problem of a To create fairy lights that offer the possibility during assembly that the on this Fairy lights located regardless of the size of the lights with a chain decorating object, e.g. B. Christmas tree, so that the cables guiding starting from the beginning of the installation decorating object can be done, which means that all lights evenly in all directions can be distributed without the cable ultimately not at the power feeding socket arrives.
Dieses Problem wird mit den in dem Schutzanspruch 1 aufgeführten Merkmalen derart gelöst, daß die erfindungsgemäßen Segmentlichterketten aus Kabelsegmenten bestehen, die sowohl an ihren jeweiligen Enden Stecker beziehungsweise Steckdosen wechselweise installiert haben als auch auf der gesamten Kabellänge in gewissen Abständen einerseits am stromführenden Kabel weitere Stecker aufweisen, von denen dann die Segmentkabel abgeleitet werden können, die die Segmente für die Leuchten am stromführenden Kabel aufnehmen können, um somit in der Lage zu sein, unabhängig von der jeweiligen Größe des zu illuminierenden Objektes, wie z. B. Weihnachtsbäume, die jeweiligen Kabelsegmente durch einfaches Zusammenstecken über ein oben zentral angebrachtes Steckerkabelsegment in alle Richtungen verteilen zu können, um somit eine gleichmäßige Verteilung der Illumination zu erreichen.This problem is solved with the features listed in the protection claim 1 such that the segment fairy lights according to the invention consist of cable segments that have both plugs or sockets installed alternately at their respective ends and also have other plugs at certain intervals over the entire cable length on the one hand at the current-carrying cable , from which the segment cables can then be derived, which can accommodate the segments for the lights on the current-carrying cable, in order to be able, regardless of the respective size of the object to be illuminated, such as. B. Christmas trees to be able to distribute the respective cable segments in all directions by simply plugging them together via a plug cable segment mounted centrally above, in order thus to achieve a uniform distribution of the illumination.
Mit der Erfindung wird erreicht, daß mit Segmentlichterketten zu dekorierende Objekte, wie z. B. Weihnachtsbäume, unabhängig von der Größe des jeweiligen Objektes und unabhängig von der Länge der jeweiligen Kabel, eine gleichmäßige Illuminaton möglich wird, da die jeweiligen Segmente beliebig untereinander kombiniert und miteinander verbunden werden können, ohne, daß sich die Kabel bei der Dekoration verheddern können oder sich am Ende der Lichterkette die stromführenden Kontakte zur Steckdose nicht herstellen lassen können, weil bei Beginn der Installation eventuell der Anfang der Lichterkette nicht richtig abgeschätzt worden war. Mit derartigen Segmentlichterketten lassen sich Objekte jedweder Größe und Form illuminieren.With the invention it is achieved that objects to be decorated with segment light chains, such as e.g. B. Christmas trees, regardless of the size of the object and regardless of the length of the respective cables, a uniform illumination is possible is because the respective segments are combined with each other and with each other can be connected without the cables getting tangled in the decoration can or at the end of the chain of lights the live contacts to the socket cannot be produced because at the beginning of the installation the beginning of the Fairy lights had not been properly estimated. With segment lights like this objects of any size and shape can be illuminated.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird anhand der Fig. 1 und 2 erläutert:An embodiment of the invention is explained with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2:
Fig. 1 das Lichterkettensegment mit Stecker, Steckdosen und Stromzuführungskabel mit Stecker sowie das Lichterketten-Anschlußsegment mit den Aufnahmen für die Leuchten, Verbindungssteckern und Verbindungssteckdosen. Fig. 1, the light chain segment with plugs, sockets and power supply cable with plug and the light chain connection segment with the receptacles for the lights, connectors and sockets.
