Abstract
A luminous fiber may include a flexible printed circuit board extending in a length direction of the fiber, at least one electrically conductive trace being formed on the flexible printed circuit board, at least one light emitting component being arranged on the flexible printed circuit board and being electrically connected to the trace, and a lateral strengthening structure for strengthening the luminous fiber in lateral direction perpendicular to the length direction. The lateral strengthening structure may include two frame bars, which are formed on the flexible printed circuit board and which extend in the length direction of the fiber. The lateral strengthening structure may include several lateral support elements, which are formed on the flexible printed circuit board between the frame bars and which are coupled to the frame bars.
