Description

The utility model relates to a shelf having the features of the preamble of claim 1.

Such shelves are known.

So is in the DE 20 2010 000 964 U1 a lighting and especially light control system for furniture known. In this document it is disclosed that the luminous element is installed in a separate rail, which in turn is attached to the furniture, wherein the rail can be laminated in a further step after installation.

Of the DE 20 2009 014 515 U1 is to take a shelf lighting as known, in the outer LED bar is externally energized.

Other arrangements of shelves with bulbs are the DE 10 2009 040 353 A1 . DE 20 2004 014 177 U1 and EP 1 183 964 A1 to be known as known.

The object of the utility model is to provide lighting for a shelf, in which the lighting means are integrated in a rack strut so that they are not visible from the outside and also the power supply is covered.

This object is achieved by a shelf having the features of claim 1. Embodiments of the claimed shelf are the subject of claims 1 to 2 dependent on claim 1

According to the proposal, in the case of a rack composed of system pipes and thread knots, at least one system pipe is provided with an elongate partial groove which does not reach as far as the thread nodes. In this system tube, an LED lamp is introduced. The supply of the current takes place in the system pipe, whereby the current supply also takes place through the thread node.

In the system pipe and a plurality of elongated sub-grooves may be provided. For example, three elongate sub-grooves can be provided in a system tube, in such a way that the system tube in section so viewed perpendicular to the longitudinal axis consists of three webs of full material and three recesses. Advantageously, in such a system tube, an LED luminous body can be introduced, which consists of three reflectors, which form an equilateral triangle, and which has correspondingly arranged on the reflectors LED bulbs.

The lighting of the objects to be presented can be done from the front top, back top and from the side. Accordingly, system tubes must be provided with sub-grooves and LED luminaires.

Also, the system tube can be rotated with no or only slightly tensioned dowels, so that the direction of the light exit is adjustable.

Especially with system tubes with several sub-grooves of the LED or the body can be aligned so that light shines away from the shelf.

Thus, it may be necessary to provide several system tubes with sub-grooves and LED luminaires.

To supply the LED filament, which is located in the part of the groove, with electricity, it is provided a contact button, which bears resiliently against the contact of the LED filament, with a wire through a ferrule, a clamping screw, a Fixing sleeve and a clamping dowel is performed so that the wire through the system pipe and the thread node outwards or into another system pipe is feasible. To carry out the wire, the end sleeve and the clamping screw are drilled through.

To connect the shelf with one or more current-carrying conductors, it may be provided in an advantageous manner to screw a socket into a thread of a threaded node. In the case of LED luminaires which have contacts at both ends, it can be favorable to guide only one wire to a respective outwardly directed thread node and to form the socket arranged in the thread node for one pole.

If both LED lamp contacts are on one side, two wires may be routed to an outward-facing threading node, so that the socket must be designed for two poles.

If necessary, the system tubes and the thread nodes could also be used to guide the low-voltage current. Ultimately, however, it makes sense to run the power only in insulated conductors in the system pipes.

The system pipes are usually round executed. However, oval or polygonal pipes are also possible.

In an embodiment of the subject of the utility model, it is also possible to a desk-shaped attachment to the threaded node of the shelf connect. Preferably, a system tube of the desk-shaped attachment can then also be equipped with an LED luminous body, which is located in one or more sub-grooves, so that hereby a desk lighting and / or room lighting can be realized.

The subject matter of the utility model will be described in more detail below without restricting the subject matter of the utility model to this example.
