Abstract

A lighting module includes a base, at least one electrically powered light radiation source carried by said base, a plurality of lamina electrical contacts connected to said light radiation source, and having respective proximal ends fixed to said base and respective distal ends elastically pressed against one face of said base, wherein the distal ends of said lamina electrical contacts have respective mutually offset contact areas.

Claims (19)

1. A lighting module comprising:

a base,

at least one electrically powered light radiation source carried by said base,

a plurality of lamina electrical contacts connected to said source of light radiation, wherein each of the plurality of lamina electrical contacts has a respective proximal end fixed to said base and a respective distal end including a contact area, wherein each contact area of the respective distal ends is elastically pressed against one face of said base, and wherein the contact areas are offset from each other.

2. The lighting module according to claim 1 , wherein said lamina electrical contacts are parallel to each other along a traverse direction and are spaced apart along a longitudinal direction orthogonal to the traverse direction.

3. The lighting module according to claim 2 , wherein said contact areas are offset from each other in the transverse direction orthogonal.

4. The lighting module according to claim 1 , comprising a plurality of first electrical contacts acting on a first face of said base and a plurality of second electrical contacts acting on a second face of said base.

5. The lighting module according to claim 1 , wherein the distal ends of said lamina electrical contacts have a curl shape.

6. A lighting system comprising:

a conductive support including a tape of insulating material having a first face and a second face, and a plurality of conductive tracks applied on said first face, extending along a longitudinal direction and spaced apart along a transverse direction, and

at least one lighting module, the at least one lighting module comprising:

a base,

at least one electrically powered light radiation source carried by said base,

a plurality of lamina electrical contacts connected to said source of light radiation, wherein each of the plurality of lamina electrical contacts has a respective proximal end fixed to said base and a respective distal end including a contact area, wherein each contact area of the respective distal ends are elastically pressed against a first face of said base, and wherein the contact areas are offset from each other,

wherein the first face of said base of the at least one lighting module rests against said second face of said tape and wherein said contact areas of said lamina electrical contacts are directly pressed elastically against respective conductive tracks of said conductive support.

7. The lighting system according to claim 6 , wherein said face of said base has at least one positioning rib which rests against a respective edge of said tape.

8. The lighting system according to claim 7 , wherein said face of said base comprises two positioning ribs parallel to one another that rest against opposite edges of said tape.

9. The lighting system according to claim 6 , comprising a casing having a cavity in which there is housed said conductive support and said at least one lighting module connected to said conductive support.

10. The lighting system according to claim 9 , wherein said cavity is filled with a potting material.
