Abstract

The present invention provides an infinity lighting system for transparent media display, the system comprising of: a glass panel; a mounting door or frame or bezel; plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s); a lighting diffuser; a polarized mirror-finished film; a transparent media display screen; and a mask or scratch resistant clear panel; wherein, said plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s) mounted in the periphery between a glass panel and the transparent media display screen, for generating numerous reflections to create infinite lighting effects, which enhances visibility and clarity of the transparent media display and visibility of product(s) stored in a container or in a display body.

Claims

1. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display, the system comprising of:

a glass panel;

a mounting frame;

plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s);

a lighting diffuser;

a polarized mirror-finished film;

a transparent media display screen; and

a mask or scratch resistant clear panel;

said plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s) is/are mounted in the periphery between a glass panel and the transparent media display screen,

said lighting diffuser may be integrated to lighting strip(s) or LED(s),

said polarized mirror finished film is placed on the back surface of the transparent media display screen,

said transparent media display screen is for viewing, displaying and advertising, said mask or scratch resistant clear panel acts as a protective covering, and is operatively aligned with the transparent media display screen to enable illumination from the said lighting strip(s) or LED(s) to pass therethrough,

said mounting frame may be affixed to a door of a container,

wherein, the infinity lighting system can be individually retro-fitted to container(s), through which product(s) stored within interior of the said container may be viewed, and enhances the visibility of product(s) stored within the said container.

2. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display of claim 1, wherein the said plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s) is used separately or together with a lighting diffuser to create different reflected effects.

3. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display of claim 1, wherein the said glass panel is a multilayered clear glass sheet which increases the amount of reflections.

4. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display of claim 1, wherein the said lighting diffuser may be optionally integrated to lighting strip(s) or LED(s).

5. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display of claim 1, wherein the said polarized mirror-finished film is placed on the back surface of the transparent media display screen for increasing number of reflections to enhance the quality of luster or lighting effect.

6. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display of claim 1, wherein the said transparent media display screen includes but is not limited to LED, LCD, OLED.

7. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display of claim 1, wherein the said mask or scratch resistant clear panel is optionally used as a protective covering, and which is operatively aligned with transparent media display screen to enable illumination from said lighting strip(s) or LED(s) to pass therethrough.

8. An infinity lighting system for transparent media display of claim 1, wherein the said system is individually used/attached with any or all cooling container(s) or non-cooling container(s) of different shape(s) and size(s) or window (a shop window).

9. An infinity lighting system for displaying and advertising of beverage(s) or product(s), the infinity lighting system comprising:

a. a glass panel;

b. a mounting door or frame or bezel;

c. plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s);

d. a lighting diffuser;

e. a polarized mirror-finished film;

f. a transparent media display screen; and

g. a mask or scratch resistant clear panel;

wherein, said plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s) is/are mounted in the periphery between a glass panel and the transparent media display screen, for generating numerous reflections to create infinite light effects, which enhances visibility and clarity of the transparent media display, and also enhances visibility of product(s) stored within interior of a container.

10. An infinity lighting system of claim 9, wherein the said plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s) is used separately or together with a lighting diffuser to create different reflected effects.

11. An infinity lighting system of claim 9, wherein the said polarized mirror-finished film is optionally placed on the back surface of the transparent media display screen for producing infinite reflections to illuminate product(s) stored within the said container.

12. An infinity lighting system of claim 9, wherein the said transparent media display screen includes but is not limited to LED, LCD, OLED.

13. An infinity lighting system of claim 9, wherein the said mask or scratch resistant clear panel is for protecting the transparent media display screen and can be additionally used for aesthetic purpose(s).

14. An infinity lighting system of claim 9, wherein the said mask or scratch resistant clear panel is preferably transparent.

15. A method for displaying and advertising of beverage(s) or product(s) by infinity lighting system, the method comprising:

affixing an infinity lighting system to door or window of a display body;

wherein, the said infinity lighting system having at least one transparent media display screen through which product(s) stored inside the display body may be viewed, further plurality of lighting strip(s) or LED(s) are mounted between the glass panel and the transparent media display screen around periphery to create different reflected light effects to enhance the lighting quality and a mask or scratch resistant clear panel as a protective covering, and operatively aligned with transparent media display screen to enable illumination from said lighting strip(s) or LED(s) to pass therethrough.

16. A method of claim 15, wherein the said transparent media display screen is preferably used for displaying text(s), image(s), video(s) or animation(s), brand(s) and other media events.

17. A method of claim 15, wherein the said infinity lighting system generates numerous reflections to create infinite light effects, which enhances visibility and clarity of the transparent media display and visibility of product(s) stored inside the display body.
