Description

Anbau- bzw. Pendelleuchte für langgestreckte EntladungslampenSurface-mounted or pendant luminaire for elongated discharge lamps

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Anbau- bzw. Pendelleuchte für langgestreckte Entladungslampen mit einem Gehäuse, das einen im Querschnitt C-förmigen Profilkörper als Gehäuseaußenteil und zwei stirnseitige Endkappen aufweist, wobei in den Profilkörper ein sämtliche elektrische Einbauteile, einschließlich Lampenfassungen und Lampen, tragender Einsatz eingesetzt ist.The invention relates to a surface-mounted or pendant luminaire for elongated discharge lamps with a housing which has a cross-sectionally C-shaped profile body as the outer housing part and two end caps on the end, with all electrical installation parts, including lamp holders and lamps, bearing insert in the profile body is used.

Bei einer aus der DE-PS 10 54 173 bekannten Leuchte dieser Art besteht das Gehäuseaußenteil aus einem im wesentlichen U-förmigen Profilkörper, an dessen Schenkeln nach innen ragende Führungsnuten vorgesehen sind zum Einschieben eines sämtliche elektrische Einbauteile tragenden Einsatzbleches, das der Länge des Profilkörpers entspricht. Der Profilkörper ist stirnseitig durch Endkappen verschlossen, welche an das Einsatzblech angeschraubt sind. Der Profilkörper kann zwar aus stranggepreßtem Kunststoff bestehen, muß jedoch zwecks Befestigung an einer Decke oder einem Pendel mit Löchern versehen werden, was seine Herstellung verteuert. Da bei dieser bekannten Leuchte alle elektrischen Einbauteile, einschließlich Lampenfassungen und Lampen, auf dem Einsatzblech montiert sind, ist der Raum zwischen diesem Einsatzblech und der Oberwand des Profilkörpers für andere Zwecke praktisch verloren; es kann z.B. in diesen Raum kein Reflektor odgl. eingesetzt werden.In a lamp of this type known from DE-PS 10 54 173, the outer housing part consists of an essentially U-shaped profile body, on the legs of which inwardly projecting guide grooves are provided for inserting an insert plate carrying all the electrical installation parts, which corresponds to the length of the profile body . The profile body is closed at the end by end caps which are screwed to the insert plate. The profile body can consist of extruded plastic, but must be provided with holes for attachment to a ceiling or a pendulum, which makes its production more expensive. Since in this known lamp all electrical components, including lamp holders and lamps, are mounted on the insert plate, the space between this insert plate and the upper wall of the profile body is practically lost for other purposes; e.g. no reflector or the like in this room. be used.

Aus dem DE-GM 17 86 869 ist eine Leuchte bekannt, die aus einem Rahmen mit zwei sich in Leuchtenlängsrichtung erstreckenden Installationsschienen und zwei dazu quer verlaufenden, die Lampenfassungen tragenden Kopfstücken besteht. Die Bauteile des Rahmens sind an den Ecken durch Bolzen zusammengehalten, die gleichzeitig zur Aufhängung der Leuchte dienen. Auf den Installationsschienen sind jeweils die halbe Anzahl der für die Lampen erforderlichen elektrischen Einbauteile angeordnet. In der Mitte des Rahmens kann noch ein drittes rohrförmiges Längsteil zum Durchziehen der Verdrahtung vorgesehen werden, was jedoch den Aufbau erheblich verkompliziert. - Da diese bekannte Leuchte mit Reflektorleuchtstofflampen bestückt ist, benötigt sie kein Gehäuse, so daß der Rahmen auf der von der Lichtaustrittsöffnung gegenüberliegenden Seite offen bleibt.From DE-GM 17 86 869 a lamp is known which consists of a frame with two installation rails extending in the longitudinal direction of the lamp and two transverse to it extending, the lamp holders carrying headers. The components of the frame are held together at the corners by bolts, which also serve to suspend the lamp. Half the number of electrical installation parts required for the lamps are arranged on the installation rails. In the middle of the frame, a third tubular longitudinal part can be provided for pulling the wiring through, but this considerably complicates the structure. - Since this known lamp is equipped with reflector fluorescent lamps, it does not require a housing, so that the frame on the opposite side of the light exit opening remains open.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Leuchte für langgestreckte Entladungslampen zu schaffen, deren Profilkörper auf der Oberseite keinerlei Löcher oder Öffnungen aufweist. Außerdem soll hierbei möglichst viel Raum innerhalb des Gehäuseaußenteiles für die Aufnahme lichtlenkender Mittel, z.B. Spiegel oder Raster, zur Verfügung stehen.The invention has for its object to provide a lamp for elongated discharge lamps, the profile body has no holes or openings on the top. In addition, as much space as possible within the outer housing part for receiving light-directing means, e.g. Mirror or grid, are available.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Leuchte eingangs erwähnter Art gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß der Einsatz aus zwei sich in Leuchtenlängsrichtung erstreckenden Installationsschienen und zwei dazu quer verlaufenden, die Lampenfassungen tragenden, bügelartigen Kopfstücken rahmenartig aufgebaut ist, wobei die Länge des Profilkörpers der Länge der Installationsschienen entspricht und die über den Profilkörper überstehenden Kopfstücke mit deckenseitigen, in einer Leuchtenlängsebene liegenden plattenförmigen Ansätzen versehen sind, welche Öffnungen für Montagemittel und Stromzuführungsleiter etc. aufweisen.This object is achieved in a luminaire mentioned in the opening A of the invention rt achieved, according to that the use of two extending in longitudinal luminaire direction I nstallationsschienen and two transverse thereto, bearing ampenfassungen the L, bracket-like end pieces is constructed like a frame, wherein the length of the profile body of the Corresponds to the length of the installation rails and the head pieces projecting above the profile body are provided with ceiling-side, plate-shaped projections which lie in a longitudinal plane of the luminaire and which have openings for assembly means and power supply conductors, etc.

Bei dieser Leuchte ist in an sich bekannter Weise der rahmenartige Einsatz der eigentliche tragende Leuchtenteil, während der Profilkörper lediglich als Außenverkleidung des Einsatzrahmens dient. Der z.B. aus . Aluminium, Stahlblech oder Kunststoff durch Kanten, Rollen `oder Strangpreßen hergestellte Profilkörper braucht nicht mit Löchern oder Öffnungen versehen zu werden. Vielmehr erfolgt die Befestigung der Leuchte und die Durchführung der Stromzuführungsleiter durch die deckenseitigen Öffnungen in den außerhalb des Profilkörpers liegenden Kopfstücken des rahmenartigen Einsatzes. Die Höhe der Kopfstücke ist der Höhe des Profilkörpers angepaßt. Je nachdem der C-förmige Profilkörper mit seinem als Lichtaustrittsöffnung dienenden Längsspalt nach unten oder nach oben auf den Einsatzrahmen aufgesetzt wird, strahlt die Leuchte ihr Licht nach unten oder nach oben in Richtung auf die Decke ab. - Darüber hinaus ist zwischen den beiden Installationsschienen und dem Profilkörper Raum zur Unterbringung von Reflektoren, Rastern etc.In this luminaire, the frame-like insert is the actual supporting lighting part in a manner known per se, while the profile body only serves as the outer cladding of the insert frame. The e.g. out . Aluminum, sheet steel or plastic, produced by edging, rolling or extrusion, need not be provided with holes or openings. Rather, the luminaire is fastened and the power supply conductors are led through the ceiling-side openings in the head pieces of the frame-like insert lying outside the profile body. The height of the head pieces is adapted to the height of the profile body. Depending on the position of the C-shaped profile body with its longitudinal gap serving as the light exit opening downwards or upwards on the insert frame, the light emits its light downwards or upwards towards the ceiling. - In addition, there is space between the two installation rails and the profile body to accommodate reflectors, grids, etc.

Vorzugsweise sind auf den Installationsschienen die für den Betrieb der Lampe(n) benötigten elektrischen Einbauteile, wie Vorschaltgeräte, Starterfassungen und Kondensatoren, montiert. In diesem Falle steht der gesamte Raum zwischen den Installationsschienen und dem Profilkörper zur Aufnahme lichtlenkender Mittel odgl. zur Verfügung.The electrical installation parts required for operating the lamp (s), such as ballasts, starter sockets and capacitors, are preferably mounted on the installation rails. In this case, the entire space between the installation rails and the profile body for receiving light-directing means or the like. to disposal.

Wenn die für den Betrieb der Lampe(n) benötigten Einbauteile lediglich auf einer der beiden Installationsschienen angebracht sind, bleibt die andere Installationsschiene frei, z.B. zur Aufnahme der Durchverdrahtung für Lichtbandanordnung der Leuchten.If the installation parts required for operating the lamp (s) are only attached to one of the two installation rails, the other installation rail remains free, e.g. to accommodate through-wiring for light strip arrangement of the lights.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Leuchte nach der Erfindung sind an den Kopfstücken Fassungsträger gehaltert. Eine derartige Konstruktion ist besonders einfach und preiswert.According to an advantageous embodiment of the lamp according to the invention, holder supports are on the head pieces supported. Such a construction is particularly simple and inexpensive.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Leuchte nach der Erfindung sind auf die Kopfstücke stirnseitige Endkappen aufgesetzt, welche die deckenseitigen Öffnungen in den Kopfstücken frei lassen. Hierdurch werden nicht nur die Kopfstücke abgedeckt, sondern auch erreicht, daß die Leuchte zur Betrachterseite hin ein geschlossenes Gehäuse aufweist.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the lamp according to the invention, end caps are placed on the head pieces, which leave the ceiling openings in the head pieces free. This not only covers the head pieces, but also ensures that the lamp has a closed housing towards the viewer side.
