Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a wall hanging system for a lighting wall lamp, and more specifically an indirect electric lighting wall lamp, made of staff or similar material.
  • the staff is a plaster-based material, reinforced with glass fibers.
  • the invention relates more precisely to the hanging of a wall lamp whose rear wall, that is to say the wall intended to be applied against the wall, has an opening, while the hanging system comprises a base intended to be fixed to the wall and part of which forms a retaining hook capable of cooperating with the upper edge of the opening to ensure the attachment of the wall lamp, this base being equipped with the electrical lighting device, which comes to position, after hanging, inside the wall lamp; the electric lighting device is intended to be connected, generally by means of a connector, to electric cables which exit from the wall in the fixing area of the base.
  • the base is a sheet metal or plastics blade, double bent, fixed to the wall using screws. .
  • Such a system allows easy installation and removal of the wall lamp on the base, the opening in the rear wall of the wall lamp being of sufficient dimensions to allow the passage of the electric lighting device.
  • the electrical wires coming out of the wall, and which are connected to the lighting device penetrate through the opening of the rear face into the interior space of the wall lamp. These wires, as well as their connection to the lighting device, are therefore exposed to relatively high heat given off by the lighting device. This can pose difficulties, especially when the wall lamp is installed in an old room, equipped with an obsolete and non-standardized electrical installation. Indeed, certain lighting devices, in particular halogen, produce very high heat, which can damage electrical wires, in particular by degradation of their sheath.
  • the ends of the wall electrical wires, and the connectors which ensure their connection with the lighting device being inside the wall lamp are directly accessible, in particular by children or people who wish to handle the device. lighting (for example to change a lamp), which constitutes a risk of electric shock.
  • the object of the invention is to solve these problems.
  • the base is made of a thermally and electrically insulating material, and has a recessed rear face, the recess of which is directed towards the wall, which forms a receiving chamber for housing the electrical cables coming out of the wall, and for the connector ensuring the electrical connection between these cables and the lighting device carried by the base.
  • FIG. 1 represents a base 1 obtained by molding a material having high thermal and electrical insulation coefficients. It is preferably a material based on staff, that is to say plaster reinforced with glass fibers, having a relatively high mechanical strength, for example by mixing the staff with vinyl resin.
  • the base 1 has the shape of a small flat box having a generally rectangular outline whose length is substantially greater than the width, the long sides being intended to be placed horizontally when the base is fixed to the wall.
  • the lower edge 15 of the base is slightly arched, convexity pointing downwards.
  • the front face 10 - that is to say the face intended to remain visible - is smooth and flat.
  • the opposite face, intended to come to bear against the wall, is hollowed out by a recess 3 which occupies almost the entire dorsal part of the base.
  • This base 1 has a symmetrical shape with respect to a vertical median plane, perpendicular to the face 10.
  • the openings 12 are horizontal slots, which open laterally outward.
  • the front face 10 is extended upwards, above the level of the recess 3, by a protruding rim 2, which will serve to retain the wall lamp.
  • the upper face 20 of the base, located behind the rim 2, is flat.
  • stirrup 7 serving to support the electric lighting device.
  • the stirrup 7 is a metal blade bent in the shape of an "L" .
  • One of its wings, referenced 70, is arranged horizontally and fixed, for example by means of rivets 73, against the face 10.
  • this stirrup 7 is mounted in the vicinity of one of the edges of the base, so that the lighting device can extend horizontally along almost the entire length of the base.
  • the lighting device is incandescent, and comprises a socket 6, for example with a screw, which receives the base of a bulb 60.
  • Figure 1 there is simply shown the sleeve 6 in broken dashed lines so as not to unnecessarily hide the rest of the elements of the figure.
  • the sleeve is fixed to the branch 71 of the stirrup 7 by usual means such as screws 72 (see FIG. 4).
  • the wall lamp 4 illustrated in FIG. 2 is a staff wall lamp, of the usual type, essentially comprising a front wall 43 in the form of a shell, and a flat rear wall 40.
  • the assembly has the general configuration of a pocket intended to receive the lighting device, this pocket being open upwards so as to allow an indirect diffusion of the light.
  • an opening 5 which has a horizontal rectilinear upper edge 50 and an arcuate lower edge 51, the outline of this opening 5 being substantially identical - apart from the interlocking play - to that of the base 1.
  • the upper part of the rear wall 40 which is located above the opening 5, has been designated by the reference 41.
  • the part 41 has a central zone 42 in the form of a bar, the thickness of which is substantially greater than 1 thickness of the rest of the rear wall 40.
  • This thickness corresponds, apart from the interlocking clearance, to the distance which separates the projection 2 from the wall, when the base is applied against the wall.
  • one of the side partitions bordering the recess 3 is pierced with a channel 30 which ensures communication between the recess 3 and the front space of the base.
  • This channel is used for the passage of electrical wires 90 which are appropriately connected to the socket 6 and are intended to be connected to the wall electrical wires, that is to say leaving the wall receiving the wall lamp.
  • wall means any vertical surface of a dwelling or any other room, such as an interior partition or a load-bearing wall in particular.
  • a cable 8 formed of electric conductive wires 80 connected to the sector; in general they supply an alternating current of 240 Volts, of frequency 50 Hertz.
  • the wires 80 are two or three in number, depending on whether or not there is a ground wire.
  • the base is delivered to the user already equipped with the socket 6 and the electric wires 90 which supply it. These wires pass inside the passage 30 and are connected on the one hand to the socket 6, on the other hand to a connector 9 of known type - for example of the "domino" type - which is located on the dorsal face of the base 1, inside the recess 3.
  • a connector 9 of known type - for example of the "domino" type - which is located on the dorsal face of the base 1, inside the recess 3.
  • the electrical wires 90 being delivered by the manufacturer of the wall lamp, the latter has the possibility of providing good quality wires, conforming to modern standards for which is particularly their longevity and good resistance to high temperatures.
  • the operator begins by suitably connecting the wall wires 80 to the connector 9, thus ensuring the connection of the lighting device to the mains.
  • the operator sets up the wall lamp on the base, presenting the opening 50 of the rear wall of the wall lamp opposite it.
  • the opening 5 is slightly oversized in the direction of the height relative to the base, which makes it possible to overlap the projection 2 during this positioning; the socket 6, the overall dimensions of which, both lateral and in height, is less than that of the base, does not hinder the operation.
  • the base 2 almost completely closes the opening 5 (with the exception of the lower zone of this opening), so that the flat face 10 is integrated practically without any solution of visual continuity to the rest 40 of Wall.
  • the reinforced staff with vinyl resin constituting the base 2, which is chosen because of its better mechanical strength, necessary to ensure its function of hanging the wall lamp and to absorb the efforts of tightening exerted by screw 100, has a surface appearance quite similar to that of the ordinary staff constituting the wall lamp.
  • the base will have a central part in the form of a box, carrying the hooking projection of the wall lamp, and extending laterally by wings at 135 ° intended to be fixed each to one of the corner walls.
  • This central part will have a flat front face (arranged at 45 ° relative to the walls) and a hollowed back face of the recess used to receive and house the wall wires.
