Definitions

  • the invention relates to the mounting of a lowerable lamp cover on a lamp housing according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to design the aforementioned holder so that the cover, which is lowered relative to the lamp housing and held by the suspension springs on two opposite sides of the lamp housing, can be detached from the suspension springs on one of the two sides and then around the suspension springs on the opposite side of the lamp housing is pivotable.
  • the spring holder 2 is fastened with side support walls 22 and an upper support wall 24 to the side wall 11 1 and / or the housing cover 12 of the lamp housing 1, the side support walls 22 having angled plug-in arms at their lower ends 221, which reach through assigned slots 111 in the side wall 11 of the lamp housing.
  • the side support walls 22 of the spring holder 2 are offset relative to its top wall 20 by approximately the thickness of the suspension spring 4, so that a guide space 23 is formed between the top wall 20 of the spring holder 2 and the side wall 11 of the lamp housing 1, which is parallel from below through a guide slot 231 is accessible to the side wall 11 and is laterally limited by the side walls 21 of the spring holder 2; the distance b between these side walls (FIG. 2) is smaller than the distance B between the projections 43 of the suspension spring 4.
  • the lamp cover 3 arranged in the light exit opening 13 of the lamp housing 1 is shown here as a grid with a longitudinal wall 30, which has a V-shaped, upwardly open edge region with a longitudinal edge 31 at the bottom.
  • the latter is bent over it in the area of the bearing arms 411 of the suspension spring 4 and thus forms bearing pieces 31 1 in which the bearing arms 411 can be rotated and have the inlet openings 3110 directed towards one another: Therefore, the suspension springs can be detached from it when the lamp cover 3 is pulled down by the support arms 41 of the suspension spring are pressed against each other. However, this is no longer possible even after a small rotation of the longitudinal wall 30 (in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 1), since then the locking tab 313 (see FIG. 2) between the support arms 41 of the suspension spring and thus limits their range of motion.
  • the lamp cover 3 is therefore already secured against inadvertent release from the suspension spring when it is swiveled down and in particular in the swiveled-out state.
  • a piece of the longitudinal edge 31 forms an earthing tab 312, which is bent so far inwards that the free end face of the bearing arms 411 of the suspension spring resiliently presses against its cutting edge 3121: this creates a ground connection between the suspension spring and lamp cover 3 is produced, which is guaranteed even if the longitudinal wall 30 of the lamp cover 3 consists of pre-coated sheet metal.
  • the downward-pointing support leg 432 being one includes an acute angle a with the plane of the light exit opening.
  • this angle is so large that this support leg 432 rests on the support edge 211 at the upper end of the side walls 21 of the guide space 23 with sufficient friction resistance to hold the lamp cover 3 in the light exit opening 13 (FIG. 2, drawn position of the support spring 4) .
  • the inclination of the support leg 432 enables the cover to be pulled down, the projections 43 of the support spring 4 being pressed against one another until they finally enter the guide space 23 and slide along the side walls 21 of the guide space 23 as they are pulled down, and also for one ensure safe ground contact (position of the suspension spring 4 'in Fig. 2).
  • the downward range of motion of the suspension spring 4 is limited by hooks 201 which protrude into the guide space 23 and on which the suspension spring 4 hooks (position of the spring designated by 4 "in FIG. 2).
  • the thighs 431 then press the Protrusions 43 against the lower edge 212 of the side walls 21 of the spring holder 2 and thus secure a ground connection, assuming the dimensional relationship shown in Fig. 2 and also that the support arms 41 of the suspension spring 4 in the position shown in Fig. 2 with outward bias press against the earthing tab 312.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 An alternative to this is shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, in which a molded bearing part 5, preferably made of plastic, is provided, which has both two spaced-apart bearing pieces 511 and a locking tab 512 located between them.
  • This shaped bearing part 5 is placed on the free leg of the U-shaped longitudinal edge 31.1, which for this purpose has a somewhat recessed edge 31.13 and two recesses 31.11 for receiving the locking hooks 521 of spring legs 52 of the shaped bearing part.
  • Each spring leg 52 runs at a distance corresponding to the thickness of the sheet metal of the cover from a main leg 51 of the shaped bearing part 5.
  • the edge 31.13 of the longitudinal edge 31.1 of the cover 3.1 is set back from the edge of this free leg approximately by the height of the bearing pieces 511, so that the ends of the bearing arms 411 resiliently rest on the cutting edges 31.12 of the adjacent earthing tabs 312.1.
  • a spring holder 2.1 made of galvanized sheet metal is provided for each support spring 4.2 and is fastened to the housing cover 12 by means of a supporting wall 24.1.
  • This spring holder encloses with its cover wall 20.1 and laterally angled guide walls 22.1 (FIG. 9) the guide space 23.1, which is laterally delimited by side walls 21.1 and protrude into the hooks 201.1 from the cover wall 20.1.
  • each suspension spring 4.2 The two free ends of the support arms 41.2 of each suspension spring 4.2 are angled twice, namely once within a plane parallel to the light exit opening 13 and also in a plane perpendicular to this light exit opening: parallel to the plane of the light exit opening and to the longitudinal edge 31.2 of the cover 3.2 there is a free end piece in each case 410.2;
  • the bearing arm 411.2 (FIG. 11) perpendicular to this end piece 410.2 is also arranged in the same plane. This is also approximately perpendicular to the side wall 11 of the lamp housing 1.
  • the longitudinal edge 31.2 of the cover 3.2 has a slot-shaped recess 31.20 for each supporting spring 4.2, which runs parallel to this longitudinal edge and to the light exit opening (FIG. 10). Through this recess, the support arms 41.2 of each suspension spring with its bearing arm 411.2 and the adjoining end piece 410.2 engage in the upwardly open V-shaped edge region of the cover (FIG. 11).
  • the cover 3.2 is pivoted into the light exit opening 13 of the lamp housing 1 - as shown in broken lines in FIG. 11 - the upper edge 31.21 of the recess 31.20 rests on the bearing arms 41 1.2 of each suspension spring 4.2. If, on the other hand, the cover is pivoted out - as shown in FIG. 11 - then it lies on the bearing arms 411.2 with the edge 31.23 of its longitudinal edge 31.2.
  • each support spring 4.2 To unhook the cover, the support arms 41.2 of each support spring 4.2 must be pressed against one another until both end pieces 410.2 can pass through the slot-shaped recess 31.20. With the appropriate length of these end pieces, accidental, unintentional unhooking of the cover is therefore excluded.
  • the length of the cutout 31.20 is slightly smaller than the width b of the guide space 23.1 of the spring holder 2.1 (FIG. 8): this ensures that the ends of the support arms 41.2 always bear against the lateral cutting edges 31.22 of this cutout 31.20 and for an electrical one Provide connection.
