Device for illuminating a set of equipment items which are mounted on a common support

A device for illuminating a set (1) of equipment items (3) which are mounted on an outer face (2E) of a common support (2), which includes:

• an electroluminescent plate (5) having an illuminating face and having a non-illuminating face, and being positioned so that said illuminating face (5I) of the electroluminescent plate (5) face said outer face (2E) of said common support (2), said electroluminescent plate occupying a fixed position, spaced away from said outer face, and said electroluminescent plate (5) being provided with a plurality of apertures (7), each of said plurality of apertures (7) having a periphery and each of said equipment items (3) being arranged so that it is aligned with one of said plurality of apertures (7) of said electroluminescent plate (5), each of said plurality of apertures (7) being approximately of equal size as the equipment item (3) to which it is aligned, and said electroluminescent plate (5) consisting of at least two electroluminescent panels (5A, 5B), imbricated so that each of said two electroluminescent panels (5A, 5B) can illuminate said equipment items (3) and wherein the periphery of each of said apertures (7) of said electroluminescent plate consists of consecutive portions (7A, 7B) belonging to said at least two electroluminescent panels (5A, 5B);
• a facing (8), arranged on the non-illuminating face (5E) of said electroluminescent plate (5), opposite of said outer face (2E) of said common support (2), and also provided with a plurality of apertures (9), each of said plurality of apertures (9) of said facing (8) being approximately of equal size as the aperture (7) of said electroluminescent plate (5) to which it is adjacent;
• and
• electrical power supply means (6) for said electroluminescent plate (5).
