Abstract

Abstract An iris-producing lamp device comprises one or more non-monochromatic light sources with its socket or sockets mounted on bracket. A paraboloid mirror may be disposed behind each lamp socket and a light source in the focus of the paraboloid mirror and the lamp shade is made of a grating-film iris-producing glass with a non-monochromatic light source in it. Thus the lamp shade can reflect not only its original color but also the other colors when the lamp is shut-off while transmitting a variety of colorful patterns and projecting them to objects around the lamp device when the lamp is on.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
An iris-producing lamp device comprising one or more non-monochromatic light sources with its socket or their sockets on a bracket wherein a lamp shade also mounted on said bracket is made of a grating-film iris-producing glass, and wherein the grating-film iris-producing glass is made of a 2-dimensional grating-film or two 1-dimensional grating-films with one superimposed on the other crossedly and they are all clamped firmly between two sheets of transparent material or affixed on one sheet of the transparent material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
An iris-producing lamp device comprising one or more non-monochromatic light sources with its socket or their sockets on a bracket wherein a lamp shade also mounted on said bracket is made of a grating-film iris-producing glass, and wherein the grating-film iris-producing glass is made of a 2-dimensional grating-film or two 1-dimensional grating-films with one superimposed on the other crossedly and they are all clamped firmly between two sheets of transparent material or affixed on one sheet of the transparent material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 97 words
