Abstract
For lighting equipment for illumination of theatre and show stages and platforms there is designed equipment for quick change of rotary gobos comprising a carrier disc supporting interchangeable segments with the gobos. The individual segments are attached at the carrier disc by springs which register the position of the segment on the gobo carrier while at the same time holding the segment in place.
Claims21
A luminaire with a light source from which a beam of light is projected comprising:
- a gobo carrier for supporting a plurality of gobo segments for placing gobos into the light beam;
- and
- spring gobo segments registering a gobo segment in a fixed position on the gobo carrier and securing the gobo segment on the gobo carrier;
- and
- registration tab(s) against which the segment springs register.
A luminaire with a light source from which a beam of light is projected comprising:
- a gobo carrier for supporting a plurality of gobo segments for placing gobos into the light beam;
- and
- spring rotating gobo segments registering a gobo segment in a fixed position on the gobo carrier and securing the gobo segment on the gobo carrier and allowing for rotation of the gobo once in position on the gobo carrier;
- and
- registration tab(s) against which the segment springs register.
A luminaire with a light source from which a beam of light is projected comprising:
- a gobo carrier for supporting a plurality of gobo segments for placing gobos into the light beam which hold a plurality of rigid tabs;
- and
- elongaged spring gobo segments which hold gobos on one section and have engage the gobo carrier rigid tabs on an elongated spring section.
The luminair of claim 21 wherein the registration tabs against which each gobo segment position is registered prevent both lateral and rotational movement during operation and/or transport.
