Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connection set for fluorescent lamps consisting of two separately trained and mutually spaced lamp holders for receiving the corresponding Connecting ends of the fluorescent lamp, the lamp sockets are each arranged in a socket.
  • connection set can now be used for different lengths of time fluorescent lamps with different powers are also used disadvantageously, significant problems arise with the installation of appropriate connection sets. In particular, it follows a problem with the strain relief of the electrical connecting cables used. In addition, the elements used must be grounded, in order to be able to guarantee the required operational safety.
  • connection fittings With such known connection fittings, it is in accordance with the protection class I in accordance with DIN 60598, Part 1 "Luminaires" necessary, an additional Provide connection point for a protective conductor with which all touchable Metal parts must be connected, the voltages immediately in the event of a fault can accept. This also limits the possible uses such connection sets considerably.
  • connection fittings based on metal angles from DE 44 07 470 A1 a connection set for fluorescent lamps with known electronic ballasts, in which the metal angle through in two headers arranged versions can be replaced.
  • the electronic Ballast is housed in one of the two head pieces. Also with this connection set known from the prior art the above problems and disadvantages occur.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a connection set of the beginning to provide the type mentioned, which overcomes the disadvantages mentioned and can be used in a variety of ways while ensuring easy installation.
  • connection set for fluorescent lamps according to the invention has receptacles on, each an integrated device for strain relief from leading to or coming from a ballast have electrical connecting lines. This ensures that on the labor-intensive work usually carried out by the installer Setting the connecting lines can be dispensed with and thus the connection set according to the invention regardless of the position of the Ballast can be installed easily, safely and quickly. Thereby, that in the connection set according to the invention, the socket holder only the actual lamp holder and the device for strain relief includes, this can be kept small, what their flexible use guaranteed during assembly and various uses.
  • the structure of the invention results in Connection set the possibility of different routing of the electrical Connection lines, which in turn has a wide variety of uses enables.
  • the socket receptacles exist each from a base element for receiving the device for strain relief and a mounting frame for attaching the Lamp holder.
  • the base element and the mounting frame usually arranged perpendicular to each other. But you can also consecutively be trained. This simple and reduced to the bare minimum Structure of the socket holder ensures that the invention Connection set has a small overall size.
  • the socket receptacles have each have a housing cover, the housing cover is designed such that it the lamp holder and the lamp base covers.
  • the electrical connection lines are each double or reinforced insulation. This ensures that lights, in which the connection set according to the invention is used, the Requirements of protection class II according to DIN 60598, part 1 "luminaires" fulfill. This eliminates the need for additional connection points for protective conductors be, whereby the assembly of the lamp is further simplified and the size of the lamp overall can also be reduced. By the structure of the connection set according to the invention also result lower manufacturing costs.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic side view of a connection set 10 for fluorescent lamps.
  • the connection set 10 comprises two separately lamp sockets which are formed from one another and spaced apart from one another 16 for receiving the corresponding connection ends of the fluorescent lamp 14.
  • the lamp holders 16 are each in a holder holder 18 arranged and usually formed resilient.
  • the versions 18 are attached to a corresponding mounting surface 12.
  • the socket receptacles each have a housing cover 20 have.
  • the housing cover 20 is designed such that it covers the lamp holder 16 and a lamp base 17.
  • the housing cover 20 therefore also serves as protection against contact.
  • electrical connection lines 22 enter the socket receptacles 18 a.
  • the electrical connecting lines 22 lead to a ballast (not shown) or come from there.
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematically illustrated side view of the socket holder 18. It can be seen that the socket 18 from a base element 26 for receiving the device for strain relief 38 (cf. FIGS. 3 and 4) and a mounting frame 24 for mounting the lamp holder 16 exists.
  • the base member 26 and the mounting frame 24 are arranged perpendicular to each other.
  • the base element 26 also has laterally arranged projections 28, which are designed accordingly Grooves correspond within the housing cover 20 and for attachment serve the housing cover 20 on the socket receptacle 18.
  • FIG. 3 shows a longitudinal section through the mount receptacle 18. It can be seen that that within the base element 26 means 38 for clamping fixation the electrical connecting line 22 are arranged (see also Fig. 9). In the exemplary embodiment shown, the means 38 consist of two spaced strips. Between these ledges or the electrical connecting line 22 is passed so that there is a tight fit of the electrical connection line 22 within the base element 26 results from a corresponding clamping effect.
  • the electrical Connection line 22 is through a recess 36 in the base element 26 introduced in this. After a corresponding continuation the connecting line 22 to the strips is the stripped end of the electrical connection line 22 in a in the region of the base element 26 trained terminal space 42 (see also Fig. 9).
  • the ends of the electrical Connection line 22 are for connection to the actual Lamp holder 16 bent in the direction of the corresponding connection points.
  • two openings 32, 34 can be seen for the passage of a fastening element (not shown). With these fasteners is the connection set 10 or the individual socket 18 on the Mounting surface 12 attached.
  • FIG. 4 shows a schematically represented view of the holder receptacle 18 from underneath.
  • the opening 34 of one Collar 52 is surrounded. This collar 52 serves to deflect the electrical entering through the recess 36 in the base member 26 Connection line 22.
  • the base element 26 has in the area of the Fastening frame 24 formed end two side panels 30, which serve to stabilize the mounting frame 24.
  • the recess 40 serves as an insertion aid for line 22.
  • the socket 16 inserted in the mounting frame 24 prevents the connecting line 22 clamped in the strips unintentionally loosen can.
  • FIG. 5 shows the socket holder in a schematically illustrated front view 18 with the housing cover 20.
  • the housing cover 20 surrounds the base element 26 and the mounting frame 24.
  • the lamp holder 16 is covered by the housing cover 20.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 show the mount receptacle 18 in a front or Rear view.
  • the mounting frame 24 has two openings 44 for receiving a fastening element of the lamp holder 16. Fastening pins are usually through these openings 44 (not shown) led the lamp holder 16.
  • the mounting frame 24 has two further openings 46 which for Implementation of electrical connecting lines 22 are used.
  • the openings 46 are in the area of the base element 26 or a base plate 50 (see also FIG. 4) of the base element 26 opposite the recess 36 arranged. This results in a variety of cable routing options so that again the possible uses of the connection set 10 can be increased.
  • Figures 8a-8c based on schematically represented side views and subviews three connection sets 10 each with different guidance of the electrical connection lines 22 shown.
  • a fourth leadership opportunity results from Figure 1.
