Abstract:
A lighting module ( 10 ) is disclosed, comprising a first carrier substrate ( 1 ) and a lighting unit ( 2, 4 a - 4 d ). The first carrier substrate ( 1 ) is bendable. The first carrier substrate ( 1 ) is bent so as to form a tubular structure ( 5 ), which is elongated and possibly at least in part hollow, and has a central, longitudinal axis (LA). At least a portion of one side of the first carrier substrate ( 1 ) at least in part constitutes an outer surface ( 6 ) of the tubular structure ( 5 ) exhibiting a plurality of surface portions ( 6 a - 6 d ), with the plurality of surface portions ( 6 a - 6 d ) configured such that at least some of the surface portions ( 6 a - 6 d ) each has a surface normal ( 7 a,  7 d ) that is at an angle with respect to planes perpendicular to the central, longitudinal axis (LA) and passing through the respective surface portion ( 6 a - 6 d ). The lighting unit ( 2, 7 d  4 a - 4 d ) is coupled to the at least a portion of the one side of the first carrier substrate ( 1 ). By way of the geometrical configuration of the plurality of surface portions ( 6 a - 6 d ), the lighting unit ( 2, 4 a - 4 d ) and possibly at least one light-emitting element ( 4 a - 4 d ) included therein may have a main direction of light emission that is at an angle with respect to a plane that is passing through the tubular structure ( 5 ) and that is substantially perpendicular to the central, longitudinal axis (LA) of the tubular structure ( 5 ).

Claim (Index 7):
A lighting module according to  claim 1 , wherein the first carrier substrate is bent such that opposite edges of the first carrier substrate are coupled to each other.
