Abstract
The invention provides a lighting device, comprising multiple light sources and a light guide, enabling homogenously illuminated corners and multiple angles for light guide systems without interruption of the light. The lighting device comprises n light sources, n being equal to (2) or more, each light source comprising a LED array on a carrier having two carrier ends. The LED array comprises repeating lighting elements, each having an optical center. The lighting device further comprises n−1 connections between carrier ends of neighboring light sources, each connection having a non-zero and non-straight connection angle an−1, and a light guide having an edge surface separating a first side surface and an opposite second side surface. At each of the n−1 connections, two or more lighting elements at each carrier end of the neighboring light sources have a pitch, which is maintained across the connection.
