Definitions

  • the present invention concerns outside lighting devices, particularly those in the shape of lanterns which may be fixed to a wall or to a suspension post.
  • Such lighting devices essentially comprise a cage body provided with a light diffuser, a cap fixed to said body and a supporting arm connected to said cap which is designed to be fixed to a wall or a suspension post when the lantern is installed for use.
  • a lantern may be installed hanging from a supporting arm or be held upright on an arm.
  • lanterns are originally manufactured in different types according to the method used for suspension. Such lanterns are no longer reversible, as they are not provided with elements which allow overturning.
  • Another object of the invention is therefore to provide a lighting device in the shape of an overturnable lantern allowing two different applications in a quick and simple way, with no need to disassemble any fittings or disconnect any electric cables.
  • the lighting device described herein comprises a cage body 11, a cap 12, and a supporting arm 13.
  • the body 11 is designed to be provided with a light diffuser 14 which encloses a light source and is removably applied to the body.
  • the cap 12 is fixed to the body 11 by means of screws, a bayonet coupling and/or by other means;
  • the supporting arm 13 is fixed to said cap 12 and is designed to be applied to a wall by means of a supporting plate 13a or on a suspension post when the lantern is installed for use.
  • the former For coupling the cap to the supporting arm, the former is provided, on one side, with a spigot joint 15 which is introduced into a hole 16 provided in the arm.
  • This hole 16 in the arm also permits the passage of an electric cable which leads to the lamp holder of the device, by passing through holes 17 provided in the cap and in the body as well.
  • the former is provided with two threaded holes 18,19 arranged symmetrically with respect to the side spigot joint 15, whereas the arm 13 is provided with an end flange 20 which partially surrounds the cap 12 and which is provided with at least one hole 21 designed to receive a fixing screw 22.
  • the hole 21 in the flange 20 of the supporting arm 13 is designed to coincide alternatively with one or with the other of the threaded holes 18,19 in the cap, thus allowing two methods for the application of the lantern body.
  • the body can therefore be installed on the supporting arm suspended as shown in Fig. 1, or overturned, i.e. upright as shown in Fig. 2.
  • the hole 21 in the flange 20 coincides with the threaded hole 18 provided in the cap and the fixing screw 22 is then screwed down in this hole 18.
  • the hole 21 in the flange 20 coincides with the other threaded hole 19 provided in the cap and the fixing screw 22 is screwed down in this hole 19.
  • the lantern body may therefore be installed in two opposite positions by simply acting on the fixing screw, with no need to disconnect the device.
  • the arm 13 may be inclined and held on the respective supporting plate 13a without removing it completely. This is possible by means of a fixing screw 13b which remains engaged in a slot 13c at the back of the arm 13, as shown in Figs 5 and 6, even when it is loose.
