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 4):
A lighting module according to  claim 1 , wherein the first carrier substrate is bent such that the outer surface of the tubular structure which exhibits the plurality of surface portions defines at least one circumferential surface portion of the outer surface of the tubular structure.
