Definitions

  • the invention relates to a recessed luminaire, which is suitable for receiving in cavities, especially in cavities of building ceilings, is determined.
  • a Such recessed luminaire is the subject of the preamble of claim 1 and in Other described in DE-A1-28 02 318.
  • the mounting bracket of the recessed ceiling luminaire described in DE-A1-28 02 318 has for support on the inner surface (undercut surface) of Cavity of a building ceiling in each case a rotary latch on, by a Arm is angled, which held in a threadless bushing guide is.
  • the threadless bushing guide sets the pivot bearing area of the rotary latch and is on the external thread of a rotatably mounted, but in the axial direction fixed, threaded shaft arranged axially adjustable.
  • the well-known threadless bushing guide at the same time forms an inclined to the longitudinal axis of the threaded shaft extending cantilevered Leaf spring, which with its free short edge in the external thread engages the threaded shaft and so cooperating with the threaded shank Nut element forms.
  • the spring component formed by the leaf spring according to DE-A1-28 02 318 is at the same time a pawl or a ratchet one of the rotary latch against its axial feed-displacement direction blocking linear Formrichtgesperres represents.
  • the mounting bracket of the recessed luminaire according to DE-A1-28 02 318 works as follows:
  • each rotary latch is the Mounting bracket distanced from its delivery position and in the outline of the Recessed light swung back into its unlocked position.
  • the invention is based on the object, the known recessed light so on Develop that the transfer of the respective rotary latch into its the recessed light locking locking position, so its delivery, not only can happen quickly, but at the same time is particularly easy to handle.
  • Embodiment is the rotary latch on one of its axial feed position swiveled axial region in its locking position and out this locking position réelleschwenkbar in its unlocked position.
  • the axial length of the axial feed position adjacent axial guide surface is dimensioned so that the differences in thickness of at least common ceiling panels considered.
  • rotary latch opposite Spring return force in its unlocked position pivotable is. This in turn means that the rotary latch during the insertion of the recessed light into the installation cavity held by hand in its unlocked position and swings into its locking position as soon as the rotary latch is released.
  • a partially recessed ceiling light 10 has a mounting bracket 11, which has a two rotationally symmetric Reflector parts 13, 14 owning lamp body 12 surrounds.
  • the lamp body 12 has a circular Frame 15, which is bridged by a bracket 16. From only partially illustrated bracket 16 are only the stirrup web 17 and one of the bar legs 18 in Fig. 1 shown. Each bar arm 18 is by means of an attachment point 19 connected to the frame 15.
  • the frame 15 has a flange 20 which abuts the outer surface 21 of a ceiling panel 22 is supported, the Inner surface (undercut surface), the reference numeral 23 carries.
  • a Screw 26 By means of a retaining recess 24 of the frame 15 and a through-hole 25 of the stirrup leg 18 is a Screw 26 along its longitudinal central axis L immovable held and, moreover, about its longitudinal central axis L rotatable stored.
  • the axial securing of the screw 26 is effected by that the screw head 27 is attached to a stop 28 of the Frame 15 is supported, while at the upper end of the threaded shaft G, whose external thread is designated 29, a Threaded nut 30 is provided for axial securing of the screw 26 is.
  • a Threaded nut 30 could also be Circlip, a split pin or a plastic cap used become.
  • the screw 26 with the front free end 31 of its threaded shaft G ahead before mounting of the lamp body 12 approximately in the radial direction r first through the retaining recess 24 and then through the Passed through tab 25 and there by means of the threaded nut 30 secured.
  • the bearing holes 33 are in fork leg 34 of the Rotary latch D molded.
  • the rotary latch D are appropriate from plastic injection.
  • a spring member F In a wing 32 of a rotary latch D is in one angular insertion opening 36 a spring member F, and Although held a leaf spring, which is a free straight Spring leg S has.
  • the spring leg S closes with the surface line M of the threaded shaft G an acute angle a, whose angular opening O in the axial feed direction Z the rotary latch D points.
  • the axial guide surfaces 41 are of guide extensions 46 formed on the top side attached to the frame 15 are.
  • Fig. 4 shows that the free short peripheral edge 42 of Spring leg S one to the outer contour of the threaded shaft G adapted V-shaped recess 43 has its inner edges 44 in threaded engagement with the threads 45th of the threaded shaft G are located.
  • the use of the mounting bracket 11 is not on limited round recessed lights, but also at Ceiling lights of e.g. rectangular or square Basic shape possible.
