Universal system using optical fibers for lighting museum showcase

摘要

The grid (12) has a set of longitudinal rods (20) extending in a longitudinal direction. Another set of transverse rods (24) extends in a transverse direction, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The longitudinal and transverse rods support a number of fiber optic fixtures (14), which are located in the longitudinal and transverse directions. The longitudinal rods are welded to the transverse rods. An independent claim is also included for a display case comprising a lighting apparatus, which comprises a support grid.
