Abstract (en)

[origin: US6942356B1] A rod-shaped light fitting ( 8 ) for a showcase, whose length corresponds to the distance between two opposite side surfaces ( 4, 6 ) of the showcase which are plane-parallel to one another, comprises a plurality of light-emitting diodes ( 12 ) and can be positioned between the said side surfaces ( 4, 6 ) in such manner that the contacts ( 16 ) fixed in each end ( 9 ) of the rod-shaped light fitting ( 8 ) and electrically connected to the light-emitting diodes ( 12 ) press against the side surfaces ( 4, 6 ) under spring loading and at the same time establish electrical connection with the electrically conductive layer provided on the side of the side surfaces ( 4, 6 ) facing the inside of the showcase, the said layers being connected to a current source. Such a light fitting can be positioned in any desired position in a showcase to illuminate the objects displayed therein.
