  • Process for the production of an image intensifier module for optical fibre illuminated signs
    Patent number: 5160565
    Abstract: The invention makes it possible to construct large screens by associating several image intensifier modules.A module comprises an input face (2) receiving the image to be intensified, an output face (10) reconstituting the intensified image and a bundle (8) of optical fibres.The process according to the invention consists of producing bands (16) of optical fibres, each band corresponding to a line or row of the image and collectively put into place the non-contiguous ends (12) of the output face in a matrix output support (14). The latter can be obtained either by moulding, or by constructing beforehand injection moulded strips, which are then introduced into a grid or grating.
