Zusammenfassung: | In order to improve visibility and hence to reduce the risk of accidents, a rope, for example a wire rope, is equipped with a number of luminous elements (6, 8, 15, 15', 66, 86) . A luminous element (6, 8, 15, 66, 86) may in this case assume the position of a wire or of a braid, may be integrated in an insert, or may be guided in the spaces between wires or braids or, preferably, the theoretical rope circumference. The luminous element (6, 8, 15, 15', 66, 86) may also itself be composed of luminous elements which are twisted together, are twisted or are laid. For strain relief, the luminous elements (6, 8, 15, 15', 66, 86) may be equipped with a reinforcement in the form of a strand, or with a mash. The luminous element (6, 8, 15, 15', 66, 86) is intended to be connected to a source (88). In the state when it is fed, the luminous element (6, 8, 15, 15', 66, 86) is actively luminous. Owing to the improved visibility, rope lights may be used not only for a safety function but also for an esthetic appearance. |
