The present invention relates to a fiber optic conduit having a light diverting outer layer (22) that reflects and/or refracts ambient light directed towards the conduit. The fiber optic conduit includes a light transmitting core (24), cladded with a fluoropolymer cladding (26) and subsequently jacketed with a polymeric finish jacket (28). The light diverting layer (22) either inserted between the cladding (26) and the jacket (28) or surrounding the jacket (28) is included in the fiber optic conduit. The light diverting layer (22) preferably has the property of allowing light to be transmitted from the fiber optic surface out of the conduit in one direction and reflecting ambient light directed towards the conduit. When reflecting ambient light, the fiber optic conduit appears in the form of chrome trim.

La présente invention porte sur un conduit à fibres optiques comportant une couche externe (22) déviant la lumière qui réfléchit et/ou réfracte la lumière ambiante en direction du conduit. Ce conduit à fibres optiques comprend une âme d'émission de lumière (24), revêtue d'une gaine fluoropolymère (26) et pratiquement entourée d'une enveloppe de finition polymère (28). La couche déviant la lumière (22), insérée entre la gaine (26) et l'enveloppe (28) ou entourant l'enveloppe (28), est incluse dans le conduit à fibres optiques. Elle a de préférence la propriété d'émettre la lumière, dans un sens, de la surface de la fibre optique en dehors du conduit et de renvoyer la lumière ambiante vers le conduit. Lorsqu'il réfléchit la lumière ambiante, le conduit à fibres optiques prend l'aspect d'une garniture de chrome.
