| Title: |
Light Guiding Apparatus |
| Abstract: |
The present invention relates to the field of illumination engineering,
particularly to structural elements of lighting devices, and may be used
in luminaires, searchlights, lanterns with a directed light and dynamic
beam movement, in controlled scanning devices. The invention makes it
possible to transmit a focused light beam and to control thereof by the
fact that in a light guiding apparatus comprising a bundle of fiber light
guides fastened together at an input end face which is mounted to rotate
about its own axis, said light guides are fastened together at an output
end face with a relative position of the fibers being equal at the both
ends which form the input and output end faces perpendicular to the light
guide axes, wherein the output end face of the bundle is mounted to rotate
about an axis which is perpendicular to the axis of the input end face, by
means of the turning mechanism hinged to a rotating mechanism installed to
rotate the input end face.
