Illuminating textile article
First Claim
1. An illuminating textile article, comprising:
- a diode-based lighting device having M contact points, M being an integer equal to or larger than 2; and
a textile body constituted by N conductive yarns and at least one non-conductive yarn, N being an integer equal to or larger than 2, the textile body providing M′
conductive exposed portions of the conductive yarns which are separated by the at least one non-conductive yarn from one another, each of the M contact points corresponding to one of the M conductive exposed portions and being fixed to the corresponding conductive exposed portion, wherein the conductive yarns provide terminals for electric connection of a power supply.

Abstract
The invention discloses an illuminating textile article including a diode-based lighting device and a textile body. The diode-based lighting device has M contact points where M is an integer equal to or larger than 2. The textile body is constituted by N conductive yarns and at least one non-conductive yarn where N is an integer equal to or larger than 2, and provides M′ conductive exposed portions of the conductive yarns which are separated by the at least one non-conductive yarn from one another. Each of the M contact points corresponds to one of the M′ conductive exposed portions and is fixed to the corresponding conductive exposed portion. The conductive yarns provide terminals for electric connection of a power supply.
