DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention is concerned with a decorative illumination setup.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The combination introduces new aesthetic alternatives for the use of the wall surfaces of homes, ball rooms, and the like. A pleasant and extraordinary illumination will simultaneously be produced into such places. For example horizontal sceneries are suitable themes for the picture.
The invention is characterized by what is stated in the patent claim.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The invention is described in the following description of the best mode embodiment which refers to the enclosed drawing where;
FIG. 1 shows a front view of a part of a decorative illumination setup according to the invention, and
FIG. 2 shows a cross-section of the setup according to the invention.
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The setup is an entity assembled of separate parts. It includes a background board having two parts 4 and 11 which parts are at different angles to the surface glass 6, 12. This creates a three-dimensional impression. A silhouetted picture 5 is placed in front of the surface glass 6, 12. The silhouette can be made of copper or other sheet metal, colored plastic, or the like. The illumination apparatus 9, preferably fluorescent tubes, is installed behind the silhouette picture. The tubes 9 will direct the light to the colique background boards 4 and 11, from where it will be reflected back into the room. Thus the scenery or other picture 5 will be seen in the room as a silhouette as the light passes through its outlines and openings. Cloud formations and the like may be painted on the background board 4. The lower part of the picture glass can be replaced also by an aquarium. The most suitable surface glass (6, 12) is frosted or other special glass.
The following is a list of the parts of the setup; the numbers refer to the numerical part designations in the Figures.
1 is the body of the setup, 2 is the frame, 3 is the supporting rack, 4 is the upper background or painting board, 5 is the silhouette picture made of copper or other sheet material, 6 is the upper part of the surface glass, 7 are the bolt plates, 8 is the supporting structure, 9 is the fluorescent tube, 10 is a support, 11 is the lower background surface or painting board, 12 is the lower part of the surface glass.
