Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9003669A1] The invention concerns a lighting device with busbars which operates on low voltages in the range of approximately 6 to 24 volts. The busbars comprise an adhesive film (6), a support (2) made, for example, from elastomer, one or two steel strips (8, 14) and - at least in the case when only one steel strip (14) is provided - two strips (15) of electrically conductive material. The busbar can be manufactured in an endless strip and sold by the meter. It can be fastened on parts of buildings such as ceilings, walls, beams and the like by means of the adhesive film (6) without any other mounting accessories. The lamps used in the device are fastened to lamp stands (4, 17). One lamp stand (4, 17) comprises a base plate (20), one or more permanent magnets (24, 21) and - when only one permanent magnet (24) is provided - two contact springs (26) through which current flows from the steel strips (8) or the strips (15). The lamp stands (4, 17) adhere to the busbar by means of the magnetic force that exists between the permanent magnets (21, 24) and the steel strips (8, 14). Current is supplied to the busbar by a component of the same design as a lamp stand (4, 17).
