PLATE-SHAPED LIGHT GUIDING BODY

摘要

The invention relates to a plate-shaped light guiding body which is made of a light-transparent material, and which comprises two at least essentially parallel surfaces and one or several lateral surfaces which are connected to said surfaces, having a height of < 10 mm, preferably < 6 mm, which is defined by the distance of the parallel surfaces. Said body also comprises at least one recess (2, 16) which is used to position an illuminating diode (LED) (3), whereby the emitted light thereof enters into the light guiding body (1) by means of one or several light inlet surfaces (4, 5) and is guided by total reflection, diffraction, reflection and/or by light-guiding means such that the total light emitted onto a lateral surface (7) is embodied as an oriented bundle of rays.
