Abstract:
A device for forming an actively luminous illuminated route systemsa carrier strip including cables and light diodes for forming an actively luminous illuminated route system,a cover strip forming a cover of an actively luminous illuminated route system,a receptacle profile having a generally U-shaped cross section comprising an elongate base having first and second edges, a first shank 6 extending along said first base edge and a second shank 8 extending along said second base edge, wherein said first and second shanks include profiles forming a clamping device for holding said cover strip, said receptacle profile further including a recess adapted for receiving said carrier strip, whereintwo stems (16,17) are provided between said two shanks (6,8) of the receiving profile (3) spaced apart parallel to each other and parallel to the outer end sections of said second shank (8), which two stems (16,17) together form a recess (12), wherein on each stem (16,17) respectively one shoulder (13) is formed, which shoulders are adapted for receiving a carrier strip for cables and light diodes (19) of an actively luminous illuminated route system,wherein the cover strip (20) covering the light diodes (19) is securely clamped in a notch (7) formed on the first holding shank (6) and between a cross-piece (10) and a projection (11) formed on the second shank (8), andwherein a one-way reflective foil (20) is provided on the cover strip (20), through which the light of the light diodes (19) shine through upon activation of the actively luminous illuminated route system.
