Wire-based lighting module with 3D topography

摘要

The present invention relates to a grid-shaped lighting module (13; 23) comprising: a plurality of electrically conducting wires (15a-b) defining a grid with nodes (16a-c); and a plurality of solid-state light-sources (17a-c) each being arranged at a respective one of the nodes and connected to two electrically conducting wires of the plurality of electrically conducting wires. The electrically conducting wires (15a-b) are pleated such that the grid-shaped lighting module (13; 23) exhibits a 3D-topography. Various embodiments of the present invention provide improved mechanical stability and allows for thin illumination panels based on the grid-shaped lighting module.
