Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Haltevorrichtung zur Befestigung einer Deckeneinbauleuchte in der Aussparung einer abgehängten Decke, wobei der Leuchtenkörper nach Anlage seines unteren Gehäuserandes am Rand der Aussparung mit je einem höhenverstellbaren Schwenkarm auf an der Deckenaussparung längsverlaufenden Tragprofilen abgestützt wird.The invention relates to a holding device for fastening a recessed ceiling light in the recess of a suspended ceiling, the lamp body after positioning its lower edge of the case at the edge of the recess with each a height-adjustable swivel arm on the longitudinal recess of the ceiling recess Support profiles is supported.

Derartige Haltevorrichtungen bestehen üblicherweise aus einem Tragkörper, welcher auf den zur Decke schräg nach außen verlaufenden Seitenwänden des Leuchtenkörpers befestigt wird, einem im Tragkörper höhenverstellbar geführten Schwenkarm sowie Mittel zum Andrücken des Schwenkarms auf die Tragprofile.Such holding devices usually consist of a support body, which on the side walls of the luminaire body, which run obliquely towards the ceiling is attached, a swivel arm which is guided in a height-adjustable manner in the supporting body and means for pressing the swivel arm onto the support profiles.

Eine solche Halteeinrichtuntg ist beispielsweise aus der DE 80 17 855 U1 bekannt. Bei dieser bestehen die Mittel zum Andrücken des Schwenkarms auf die Tragprofile aus einer vertikal zur Decke ausgerichtetem Schraubspindel, welche an beiden Enden im Tragkörper drehbar gelagert ist und ein im Schwenkarm integriertes Gewinde durchdringt. Durch Drehen der Schraubspindel wird der Schwenkarm zunächst um 90° in eine Lage über die Tragprofile geschwenkt und dann durch weiteres Drehen soweit abwärts bewegt, bis der Schwenkarm mit seiner Auflagekante auf den Tragprofilen fest aufliegt.Such a holding device is known for example from DE 80 17 855 U1. In this there are the means for pressing the swivel arm onto the support profiles from a screw spindle aligned vertically to the ceiling, which at both ends is rotatably mounted in the support body and a thread integrated in the swivel arm penetrates. The swivel arm is initially turned by turning the screw spindle Swiveled 90 ° into one position over the support profiles and then by further turning moved downwards until the swivel arm with its contact edge on the support profiles lies firmly.

Bei dieser Haltevorrichtung wird es als Nachteil angesehen, daß bei einer Schraubspindel viele Leerdrehungen erforderlich sind, um den Schwenkarm auf die gewünschte Anlagehöhe herunterzudrehen. Außerdem kann die Schraubspindel erst nach dem Einschrauben in die Gewindeaufnahme des Schwenkarms in dem Tragkörper drehbar eingelagert werden. Die Herstellung sowie der Zusammenbau der Haltevorrichtung wird daher als sehr zeitaufwendig und kostspielig beurteilt.In this holding device, it is considered a disadvantage that with a screw Many idle turns are required to get the swivel arm to the desired one Turn down the system height. In addition, the screw spindle can only after screwing into the thread holder of the swivel arm in the support body be rotatably stored. The manufacture and assembly of the Holding device is therefore assessed as very time-consuming and expensive.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, eine Haltevorrichtung der vorgenannten Art so zu gestalten, daß der Leerlauf beim Herunterdrehen des Schwenkarms vermieden wird. Die Haltevorrichtung sollte einfach und zweckmäßg im Aufbau sein. Sie sollte auf Wunsch des Kunden auch aus Kunststoff herstellbar sein und aus möglichst wenigen Teilen bestehen, welche sich schnell und problemlos zusammmenbauen lassen und auch einfach am Leuchtengehäuse anzubringen sind.The object of the invention is therefore a holding device of the aforementioned type to avoid idling when rotating the swivel arm becomes. The holding device should be simple and functional in construction. she should can also be made from plastic at the customer's request and from as few as possible Parts exist that can be assembled quickly and easily and are also easy to attach to the luminaire housing.

Diese Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß der Schwenkarm an einem im Tragkörper entlang der Seitenwand zur Decke hin verschieblich geführten Schlitten befestigt und der Schlitten mit dem Ende eines Spannbandes aus Kunststoff verbunden ist, welches mit seinem anderen Ende in ein am unteren Ende des Tragkörpers befindliches Verriegelungsschloß einführbar und in diesem verrastbar istThis object is achieved according to the invention in that the swivel arm on one in the support body along the side wall towards the ceiling Carriage attached and the carriage with the end of a plastic strap which is connected with its other end into a at the lower end of the Carrying body located lock lock can be inserted and locked in this

Durch den erfindungsgemäßen Einsatz eines Kunststoffspannbandes in Verbindung mit einem im Tragkörper integrierten Verriegelungsschloß läßt sich der Schwenkarm beim Einbau des Leuchtengehäuses in die Aussparung der abgehängten Decke sehr schnell bis zur Auflage auf das Tragprofil herunterziehen, was bei der Betätigung mehrerer Haltevorrichtungen einen beträchtlichen Zeitgewinn bedeutet. Außerdem lassen sich der Schlitten und das Spannband vorteilhafterweise in einem Stück aus Kunststoff verspritzen, während die Herstellung von Schwenkarm und Tragkörper sowohl aus Kunststoff als auch in Metallblech möglich ist.Through the use of a plastic strap in accordance with the invention the swivel arm can be fitted with a locking lock integrated in the supporting body when installing the luminaire housing in the recess of the suspended ceiling very much quickly pull down to the support profile, which is when actuated several holding devices means a considerable saving of time. Moreover the slide and the strap can advantageously be made in one piece Splash plastic while making swivel arm and support body both plastic and sheet metal is possible.

Die in den Figuren dargestellte Haltevorrichtung dient zur Befestigung von Deckeneinbauleuchten in Aussparungen von abgehängten Decken, wobei das Leuchtengehäuse nach Anlage des unteren Gehäuserandes am Rand der Aussparung mit höhenverstellbaren Schwenkarmen auf an der Deckenaussparung längsverlaufenden Tragprofilen abgestützt wird. Die Haltevorrichtung setzt sich hierbei zusammen aus einem Tragkörper 1 (Fig.1), einem darin höhenverstellbar geführten Schwenkarm 2 (Fig.3) sowie einem im Tragkörper 1 verschiebbar geführten Spannband 3 (Fig.2), welche nachfolgend näher beschrieben werden sollen.The holding device shown in the figures is used to fasten recessed ceiling lights in recesses in suspended ceilings, the luminaire housing being supported on the support profile along the length of the recess in the ceiling recess after installation of the lower edge of the housing at the edge of the recess. The holding device is composed of a support body 1 ( FIG. 1), a swivel arm 2 (FIG. 3 ) that is guided in a height-adjustable manner therein, and a tensioning strap 3 (FIG. 2) that is displaceably guided in the support body 1 , which will be described in more detail below.

Der Tragkörper 1 besteht beim ersten Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 1 aus einem rechteckigen Rahmen 4 aus hartelastischen Kunststoff. Dieser Rahmen 4 ist aus zwei langen Seitenwänden 5 und zwei relativ kurzen Querwänden 6 gebildet, wobei die Seitenwände 5 als Winkelprofil und die Querwände 6 als Flachprofil ausgeführt sind, und wobei an den freien Kanten 10 der parallel zueinander verlaufenden senkrechten Schenkel 9 der Seitenwände 5 jeweils zwei Verankerungsfüße 11 mit zusammenfederbaren Rastfingern 12 angeformt sind, welche zur Befestigung des Tragkörpers 1 in der zur Decke hin schräg nach außen verlaufenden Seitenwand 13 des Leuchtenkörpers 14 dienen.The support body 1 in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 consists of a rectangular frame 4 made of hard elastic plastic. This frame 4 is formed from two long side walls 5 and two relatively short transverse walls 6, the side walls 5 being designed as an angular profile and the transverse walls 6 as a flat profile, and on the free edges 10 of the parallel legs 9 of the side walls 5 which run parallel to one another Two anchoring feet 11 are formed with resilient locking fingers 12, which are used to fasten the support body 1 in the side wall 13 of the lamp body 14, which extends obliquely outwards toward the ceiling.

Die freien Kanten 8 der in der gleichen Ebene liegenden Schenkel 7 der Seitenwände 5 haben einen etwas größeren Abstand "a" voneinander als die Breite "b" des Spannbandes 3. Am unteren Ende des Tragkörpers 1 ist ein Verriegelungsschloß 15 mit einer elastisch auffederbaren Rastzunge 16 angeformt, welches zum Einführen und Verrasten des Spannbandes 3 dient. Auf der Unterseite des Tragkörpers 1 sind die Seitenwände 5 etwa unterhalb des Verriegelungsschlosses 15 von einem Bügel 17 überbrückt, durch welchen das freie Ende des Spannbandes 3 nach dem Festzurren des Schwenkarms 2 zurückgeführt werden kann..The free edges 8 of the legs 7 of the side walls lying in the same plane 5 have a somewhat larger distance "a" from one another than the width "b" of the Tensioning strap 3. At the lower end of the support body 1 is a locking lock 15 molded with an elastically spring-loaded latching tongue 16, which for insertion and locking the strap 3 is used. Are on the underside of the support body 1 the side walls 5 approximately below the locking lock 15 by a bracket 17 bridged through which the free end of the strap 3 after lashing of the swivel arm 2 can be returned ..

Das in Fig. 2 gezeigte Spannband 3 ist an seiner Oberseite mit Rastzähnen 18 versehen, die nach dem Einführen des abgeknickten Einführendes 19 in das Verriegelungsschloß 15 mit der Rastzunge 16 in bekannter Weise so zusammenwirken, daß das Spannband 3 nur in einer Richtung hindurchgleiten kann,in der anderen Richtung dagegen blockiert ist. Das Spannband 3 ist an seinem anderen Ende mit einem rechteckigen Schlitten 20 einstückig verbunden, welcher, wie aus Fig. 5 ersichtlich, im Tragkörper 1 zwischen den senkrechten Schenkeln 9 der Seitenwände 5 verschieblich geführt ist. Der Schlitten 20 wirdvon einer senkrecht auf die Deckenebene gerichteten, zylindrischen Hülse 21 durchdrungen, welche dem nachfolgend beschriebenen Schwenkarm 2 als Schwenklager dient.The tensioning strap 3 shown in FIG. 2 is provided on its upper side with locking teeth 18 which, after inserting the bent insertion end 19 into the locking lock 15, interact with the locking tongue 16 in a known manner so that the tensioning strap 3 can only slide through in one direction, blocked in the other direction. The strap 3 is integrally connected at its other end to a rectangular slide 20 which, as can be seen in FIG. 5, is slidably guided in the support body 1 between the vertical legs 9 of the side walls 5. The carriage 20 is penetrated by a cylindrical sleeve 21 directed perpendicularly to the ceiling plane, which serves as a pivot bearing for the pivot arm 2 described below.

Der in Figur 3 gezeigte Schwenkarm 2 besteht aus einem aus Kunststoff gespritzten Doppel-T Profil, wobei die beiden kurzen Stege die Auflagekanten 29 und 30 bilden. Der Schwenkarm 2 ist zweimal in entgegengesetzter Richtung abgeknickt, so daß die beiden Schwenkarmabschnitte 2a und 2b parallel zueinander versetzt sind. Der kürzere Abschnitt 2a ist an seinem Ende mit einem nach beiden Seiten abstehenden Drehstab 22 einstückig verbunden, wobei der Drehstab 22 auf der Länge des Abschnitts 2a einen abgesetzten dickeren Stabbereich 23 aufweist. Der Drehstab 22 ist an seinen freien Enden in Achsrichtung geschlitzt und weist beiderseits der Schlitze 24 einen vom Ende aus sich konisch erweiternden Bund 25 auf, welcher mit einer sich radial absetzenden Ringfläche 26 abschließt.The swivel arm 2 shown in FIG. 3 consists of a double-T profile molded from plastic, the two short webs forming the support edges 29 and 30. The swivel arm 2 is bent twice in the opposite direction, so that the two swivel arm sections 2a and 2b are offset parallel to one another. The shorter section 2a is connected in one piece at its end to a torsion bar 22 projecting to both sides, the torsion bar 22 having a stepped, thicker rod area 23 along the length of the section 2a. The torsion bar 22 is slotted at its free ends in the axial direction and has on both sides of the slots 24 a collar 25 which widens conically from the end and ends with a radially offset annular surface 26.

Beim Einführen eines der beiden Drehstäbe 22 in die Aufnahmehülse 21 federn die 'beiden Hälften des konischen Bundes 25 zunächst zusammen, bis der Bund 25 die Aufnahmehülse 21 durchdrungen hat. Sobald der verdickte Stabbereich 23 auf dem oberen Rand der Hülse 21 aufliegt, federn die beiden Hälften wieder in ihre ursprüngliche Form zurück, wobei die radiale Ringfläche 26 den unteren Rand der Hülse 21 hintergreift. Damit ist der Schwenkarm 2 mittels des Drehstabs 22 in der Aufnahmehülse 21 axial unverschiebbar eingelagert.When one of the two torsion bars 22 is inserted into the receiving sleeve 21, the springs '' first put together the two halves of the conical fret 25 until the fret 25 the Has penetrated the receiving sleeve 21. As soon as the thickened rod area 23 on the the upper edge of the sleeve 21 rests, the two halves spring back into their original Form back, the radial annular surface 26 the lower edge of the sleeve 21 engages behind. The swivel arm 2 is thus in the receiving sleeve by means of the torsion bar 22 21 axially immovable.

Der Schwenkarm 2 besitzt rund um den verdickten mittleren Drehstabbereich 23 drei achsparallel verlaufende Rippen 27, während der Schlitten 20 oberhalb der Hülse 21 eine auf der Rahmenoberseite vorstehende Rille 28 aufweist, in welche jede der drei Rippen 27 bei entsprechender Drehung des Schwenkarms 2 einrastet.The swivel arm 2 has three around the thickened central torsion bar area 23 Ribs 27 running axially parallel, while the slide 20 above the sleeve 21 has a groove 28 protruding on the top of the frame, into which each of the three Ribs 27 engages when the swivel arm 2 is rotated accordingly.

Beim Zusammenbau der Haltevorrichtung wird zunächst das Spannband 2 in Richtung des Pfeiles "M" zwischen den Schenkeln 7 der Seitenwände 5 hindurch in das Verriegelungsschloß 15 eingeführt und soweit an der Rastzunge 16 vorbeigezogen, bis der Schlitten 20 im oberen Bereich des Tragkörpers 1 zwischen den senkrechten Schenkeln 9 der Seitenwände 5 eintaucht und an der Unterseite der waagerechten Schenkel 7, wie aus Fig. 5 ersichtlich, anliegt und gleichzeitig die Aufnahmehülse 21 über den waagerechten Schenkel 7 hervorragt. Sodann wird der Schwenkarm 2 mit einem der beiden Drehstäbe 22 in Richtung des Pfeiles "D" in die Aufnahmehülse 21 soweit eingeschoben , bis die radiale Ringfläche 26 am unteren Ende der Aufnahmehülse 21 einrastet. Die Haltevorrichtung ist nun, wie aus Figur 4 ersichtlich, fertig zusammengebaut und kann jetzt mit dem Leuchtenkörper verbunden werden.When assembling the holding device, the tensioning band 2 is first inserted in the direction of arrow "M" between the legs 7 of the side walls 5 into the locking lock 15 and pulled past the latching tongue 16 until the carriage 20 in the upper region of the support body 1 between the vertical ones Legs 9 of the side walls 5 are immersed and abut against the underside of the horizontal leg 7, as can be seen in FIG. 5 , and at the same time the receiving sleeve 21 protrudes beyond the horizontal leg 7. Then the swivel arm 2 is pushed with one of the two torsion bars 22 in the direction of arrow "D" into the receiving sleeve 21 until the radial annular surface 26 engages at the lower end of the receiving sleeve 21. As shown in FIG. 4 , the holding device is now fully assembled and can now be connected to the lamp body.

In Figur 6 ist ein Befestigungsabschnitt der Seitenwand 13 des Leuchtengehäuses 14 dargestellt, wobei die Seitenwand 13 in der Regel schräg zur Deckenebene verläuft und zur Versteifung des Leuchtengehäuses 14 verschiedene Abstufungen sowie einen unteren Abschlußrand 31 zur Anlage an die nicht dargestellte Decke aufweist. Im Bereich der vier Ecken des Leuchtengehäuses 14 sind in den Seitenwänden 13 quer zur Längsrichtung längliche Aussparungen 32 vorgesehen, welche etwas breiter sind als die Spannbänder 3. Beiderseits der Aussparungen 32 sind noch vier viereckige Löcher 33 ausgestanzt, in welche die Verankerungsfüße 11 eingesteckt und mit den Rastfingern 12 auf der Rückseite verrastet werden.In Figure 6 , a fastening portion of the side wall 13 of the lamp housing 14 is shown, the side wall 13 generally extending obliquely to the ceiling plane and 14 stiffening the lamp housing has different gradations and a lower end edge 31 for contacting the ceiling, not shown. In the area of the four corners of the luminaire housing 14, oblong cutouts 32 are provided in the side walls 13 transversely to the longitudinal direction and are somewhat wider than the tensioning straps 3 . Four square holes 33 are punched out on both sides of the cutouts 32, into which the anchoring feet 11 are inserted and locked with the locking fingers 12 on the back.

Figur 7 zeigt die Haltevorrichtung nach dem Einbau in die Seitenwand 13 des Leuchtengehäuses 14, wobei die Verankerungsfüße 11 in Richtung der Pfeile "Z" in die Vierecklöcher 33 geführt und mittels der Rastfinger 12 verrastet sind (Fig. 6). Hierbei ist das untere Ende 19des Spannbandes 2 durch den Ausschnitt 32 nach innen gezogen und der Schwenkarm 2 parallel zur Seitenwand 13 geschwenkt und durch Eingreifen einer Rippe 27 in die Rille 28 verrastet. FIG. 7 shows the holding device after installation in the side wall 13 of the lamp housing 14, the anchoring feet 11 being guided into the square holes 33 in the direction of the arrows “Z” and being latched by means of the latching fingers 12 (FIG. 6). Here, the lower end 19 of the tensioning band 2 is pulled inwards by the cutout 32 and the swivel arm 2 is pivoted parallel to the side wall 13 and locked by engaging a rib 27 in the groove 28.

Figur 8 zeigt, wie das Leuchtengehäuse bei längs zur Seitenwand 13 verlaufenden Tragprofilen 34 befestigt wird, indem der Schwenkarm 2 um 90° gedreht und dann mittels das Spannbandes 3 bis zur Auflage auf das Tragprofil 34 heruntergezogen wird. Um das Spannband im Bedarfsfalle wieder lösen zu können, wird das abgeknickte Ende 19 durch den unterhalb des Schlosses 15 befindlichen Bügel 17 gezogen, so daß das Band 2 eng an der Innenseite der Seitenwand 13 platzsparend hochgeführt wird. FIG. 8 shows how the luminaire housing is fastened in the case of support profiles 34 running longitudinally to the side wall 13 by rotating the swivel arm 2 by 90 ° and then pulling it down onto the support profile 34 by means of the tensioning band 3. In order to be able to release the tensioning strap again if necessary, the kinked end 19 is pulled through the bracket 17 located below the lock 15, so that the strap 2 is brought up close to the inside of the side wall 13 in a space-saving manner.

Figur 9 zeigt, wie das Leuchtengehäuse 14 bei quer zur Seitenwand 13 verlaufenden Tragprofilen 34 befestigt wird, indem der Schwenkarm 2 aus seiner Lage beim Einführen des Leruchtegehäuses in die Deckenaussparung um 180° gedreht und dann genau wie bei Figur 8 verfahren wird. FIG. 9 shows how the luminaire housing 14 is fastened with the support profiles 34 running transversely to the side wall 13, in that the swivel arm 2 is rotated 180 ° from its position when the luminaire housing is inserted into the ceiling recess and is then moved exactly as in FIG. 8 .

In den Figuren 10 bis 15 ist eine andere Ausführungsform der Haltevorrichtung dargestellt. Diese unterscheidet sich von von der zuerst beschriebenen Ausführungsform im wesentlichen dadurch, daß der Tragkörper 1' gemäß Fig.10 und der Schwenkarm gemäß Fig. 12 aus Metallblech hergestellt sind, während das Spannband 3 mit dem angeformten Schlitten 20 gemäß Fig. 11 aus Kunststoff gebildet ist wie das Spannband 3 in Fig. 2.In the figures 10 to 15, another embodiment of the holding device is shown. This differs from the first described embodiment essentially in that the support body 1 'according to FIG. 10 and the swivel arm according to FIG. 12 are made of sheet metal, while the tensioning band 3 with the molded slide 20 according to FIG. 11 is made of plastic is like the strap 3 in Fig. 2nd

Der Tragkörper 1' ist ebenfalls als rechteckiger Rahmen 35 ausgeführt und besteht aus zwei langen Seitenwänden 36 und zwei kurzen Querwänden 37.Die Seitenwände 36 sind hierbei als z-förmiges Winkelprofil ausgeführt, während die Querwände 37 als Flachstab ausgebildet sind. An den seitlich abstehenden Kanten der Seitenwände 36 sind je zwei Verankerungsfüße 38 angeformt.The support body 1 'is also designed as a rectangular frame 35 and is consisting of two long side walls 36 and two short transverse walls 37 36 are designed as a z-shaped angle profile, while the transverse walls 37 are designed as flat bars. On the laterally protruding edges of the side walls 36, two anchoring feet 38 are formed.

Wie aus Figur 13 erkennbar, befindet sich das Verriegelungsschloß 15 am unteren Ende des Rahmens 35. Dieses Schloß 15 wird durch eine auffederbare Rastzunge 39 gebildet, die an der Querwand 37 angeformt ist. Die Rastzunge 39 drückt mit einer Rastkante 40 gegen einen unteren Quersteg 41 und bildet durch Auffedern einen Durchgang für das Spannband 3.As can be seen from FIG. 13 , the locking lock 15 is located at the lower end of the frame 35. This lock 15 is formed by a spring tongue 39 which is resiliently formed on the transverse wall 37. The latching tongue 39 presses with a latching edge 40 against a lower transverse web 41 and forms a passage for the tensioning band 3 by springing open.

Der in Figur 12 dargestellte Schwenkarm 2' ist ebenfalls mit einem in beiden Richtungen angeformten Drehstab 42 versehen, aus welchem kurz vor den Stabenden jeweils zwei elastisch zusammendrückbare Rastschenkel 43 ausgestanzt und ausgeformt sind, welche beim Einführen des Drehstabes 41 gemäß Pfeilrichtung "D" in die Aufnahmehülse 21 sich am unteren Hülsenrand verrasten. Der Schwenkarm 2' ist genau wie bei Fig. 3 zweimal abgeknickt, so daß die Auflagekanten 29 und 30 in bezug auf die Mitte des Drehstabes 2' versetzt zueinander sind. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß je nach Einbaurichtung des Drehstabs 2' in die Aufnahmehülse 21 die zur Höhe des Tragprofils 34 passende Auflagekante 29 oder 30 zum Einsatz kommt.The swivel arm 2 'shown in Figure 12 is also provided with a torsion bar 42 formed in both directions, from which two elastically compressible latching legs 43 are punched and formed just before the bar ends, which when the torsion bar 41 is inserted in the direction of arrow "D" into the Receiving sleeve 21 engage on the lower edge of the sleeve. The pivot arm 2 'is bent twice, as in FIG. 3 , so that the support edges 29 and 30 are offset from one another with respect to the center of the torsion bar 2'. This has the advantage that, depending on the direction of installation of the torsion bar 2 'into the receiving sleeve 21, the support edge 29 or 30 which matches the height of the support profile 34 is used.

An beiden Enden des Drehstabes 41 ist eine Lasche 44 mit einem Drehschlitz 45 angeformt. Letzterer ist dazu bestimmt, den Schwenkarm 2' nach dem Einbau in die Aussparung der Decke mittels eines Werkzeugs wie bsp. eines Schraubendrehers in die gewünschte Lage über das Tragprofil 34 zu schwenken (vgl. Fig. 8 oder 9) oder im Falle des Ausbaues wieder in seine ursprüngliche Lage zurückzuschwenken (vgl. Fig. 7).At both ends of the torsion bar 41, a tab 44 is formed with a rotary slot 45. The latter is intended to swivel arm 2 'after installation in the recess in the ceiling using a tool such as. a screwdriver to pivot into the desired position over the support profile 34 (see FIG. 8 or 9 ) or, in the case of removal, to pivot back into its original position (see FIG. 7 ).

Figur 15 zeigt - genau wie Figur 6 - einen Abschnitt der Seitenwand 13 des Leuchtengehäuses 14 mit dem zum Tragkörper 1' passenden Aussparungen 46 bis 48, wobei die Aussparungen 47 und 48 zum Einrasten der Verankerungsfüße 38 bestimmt sind. Die Querkante 49 am oberen Ende der länglichen Aussparung 46 dient hierbei dem Zweck, daß ein am oberen Ende des Tragkörpers l'angeformter Rastfinger 50 diese Kante 49 hintergreift und damit für zusätzlichen Halt sorgt, wenn der Tragkörper 1', wie durch die Richtungspfeile "Z" angedeutet, an der Seitenwand 13 eingebaut wird. FIG. 15 shows - just like FIG. 6 - a section of the side wall 13 of the lamp housing 14 with the recesses 46 to 48 matching the supporting body 1 ', the recesses 47 and 48 being intended for the anchoring feet 38 to snap into place. The transverse edge 49 at the upper end of the elongated recess 46 serves the purpose that a locking finger 50 formed on the upper end of the supporting body engages behind this edge 49 and thus provides additional support when the supporting body 1 ', as indicated by the directional arrows "Z "indicated, is installed on the side wall 13.
