Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a luminaire according to the preamble of claim 1, which is particularly intended for use in wet rooms.
  • luminaires used in rooms or areas with high humidity special measures are necessary to protect the lamps and the electrical components of these luminaires from moisture.
  • the luminaire housing in which the lamp and the other electrical components are arranged, sealed watertight with a transparent or translucent cover.
  • Such a lamp is known for example from DE 93 00 896.1.
  • a sealing tape which is highly resilient and seals the connection area after joining the two elements.
  • the luminaire housing and the cover placed thereon, which are both made of a dimensionally stable material, are held together by a plurality of separate brackets arranged on the outside of the housing.
  • a plurality of fastening clamps are arranged distributed over the edge of the luminaire housing and are integrally connected to the housing.
  • the edge of the housing has a circumferential groove within which a sealing strip is arranged.
  • a cup-shaped cover is pressed from the bottom against the sealing strip and connected by means of Befest Trentsklammem with the lamp housing, so that in turn a watertight closure is formed.
  • the transparent cover is connected to the luminaire housing by means of a plurality of distributed brackets.
  • brackets There is a risk that in the event that one of the brackets was not properly attached or closed, no watertight closure is given more.
  • two operations are necessary for both lamps described above for their production to seal the lamp waterproof or moisture-proof. First, the sealing tape is inserted and then make after attaching the cover of the closure with the help of the individually applied brackets.
  • a generic luminaire is known from GB-A-2 344 874.
  • the present invention has for its object to improve a lamp of the type described above in that a water or moisture-tight closure can be made in a simple and reliable manner.
  • a luminaire which has the features of claim 1.
  • This lamp consists initially of at least one arranged in a cup-shaped lamp housing light source and arranged in the emission in front of the at least one light source and the lamp housing closing transparent or translucent cover which is detachably connected to the lamp housing.
  • the lamp housing and / or the cover both made of a dimensionally stable material, have the lamp housing and / or the cover over its entire circumference on a made of an elastic material clamping edge, which is to jam with the opposite Edge of the cover or the lamp housing is provided.
  • this clamping edge is arranged on the lamp housing.
  • the shutter between the cover and the lamp housing is made not only by individual brackets but by the clamping edge or Verrastungsrand.
  • a closure over the entire circumference is achieved, so that there is no risk that a moisture-tight closure is omitted by forgetting a clip.
  • Another advantage of the luminaire according to the invention is that an additional sealing element - e.g. the sealing tape used in the lights described above - can be dispensed with. As a result, the amount of work involved in the production of luminaires is significantly reduced.
  • the clamping edge is preferably integrally connected to the lamp housing or the cover, so that no separate or additional closure elements are necessary.
  • the luminaire according to the invention is therefore also simple and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the housing and the clamping edge are preferably made of a thermoplastic material
  • the housing for example made of polycarbonate
  • the clamping edge made of a thermoplastic elastomer.
  • the clamping edge may have, for example, in its edge region a C-shaped profile and then clamped by its two C-legs with the opposite edge. This has, for example, an outwardly directed web, which forms an acute angle with the wall of the housing or the cover. Preferably, the clamping edge also forms a downwardly directed drip nose, so that can form dripping on the outside of the housing forming condensation.
  • Fig. 1 shows the erfmdungswashe lamp in the closed state, wherein for simplicity of illustration, only the invention essential elements of the lamp are shown.
  • the cup-shaped lamp housing 1 which is to be fastened for example to a ceiling, there is at least one light source 3, which may be, for example, a light bulb or an elongated fluorescent lamp.
  • the shape of the lamp housing 1 depends on the type and number or arrangement of the light sources.
  • the downwardly open luminaire housing 1 is closed by a transparent or at least translucent cover 2 water or moisture-proof.
  • the luminaire housing 1 has an elastic clamping edge 4 which extends over the entire circumference and into which the edge region of the cover 2 is clamped.
  • the clamping edge 4 is preferably a Verrastungsrand with a Verrastungsnase 41, which is circumferentially formed in the embodiment.
  • the detailed design of the clamping edge 4 is shown in an enlarged view in Fig. 2.
  • the clamping edge 4 consists of an elastic material and has in its edge region a C-shaped profile, which is clamped when closing the lamp with a arranged on the edge of the cover 2 web 5.
  • the outwardly directed web 5 is arranged inclined outwards and includes in the embodiment with a cup-shaped cover 2 with the side wall of the cover 2 an acute angle.
  • the inclined upper side forms a divergent insertion surface 5c on which, when clamping or latching the clamping or Verrastungsrand is forced outwards.
  • the narrow in the embodiment side surface of the web 5 is undercut convergent.
  • the Verrastungsnase 4a engage behind the web 5 and lock.
  • a divergent execution surface 5d is thereby formed, on which the latching nose 4a is forced outwards upon release of the latching.
  • the two C-legs 6, 7 are when clamping the web 5 under tension and ensure both a secure hold of the cover 2 to the lamp housing 1 and the desired, dense, in particular watertight closure.
  • An additional sealing element such as a sealing tape or the like is no longer necessary.
  • the web 5 cross-C-leg 6 of the clamping edge 4 is further formed so that it forms a downwardly directed drip. Condensation that forms on the outside of the lamp housing 1 and runs down can then drain down and do not penetrate into the connecting region between the clamping edge 4 and the cover 2.
  • the likewise outwardly inclined arranged C-shaped profile of the clamping edge may be in the region of its base portion 4b straight (not shown) or curved (shown), preferably upwardly convex curved extend. It may be integrally formed on an edge base 4c, which may be a lateral extension of the preferably hat-shaped or dome-shaped lamp housing 1.
  • a downwardly directed web 8 is also arranged on the lamp housing 1. This directed in the connecting direction between the housing 1 and the cover 2 web 8 forms a guide web, through which the attachment of the cover 2 is facilitated on the underside of the lamp housing 1.
  • the luminaire housing 1 and the clamping edge 4 are preferably integrally connected to each other and consist of a hard or soft component, both of which are thermoplastic.
  • the hard component of the housing 1 consists, for example Polycarbonate, while the soft component of the clamping edge 4 consists of a thermoplastic elastomer.
  • the housing 1 with the clamping edge 4 arranged thereon can be produced for example in a multi-component injection molding process. The joint between the hard and soft components is then formed by a chemical reaction under heat, so that the clamping edge 4 is fixedly connected to the housing 1.
  • the clamping edge 4 can have a different color from the housing 1 for better distinction.
  • the clamping edge 4 By the configuration of the clamping edge 4 shown in the figures, a particularly good seal is achieved, at the same time a simple attachment or removal of the cover 2 is made possible.
  • other structures for the clamping edge 4 or the opposite edge region in the cover 2 are conceivable, by which a suitable clamping effect is achieved.
  • the lamp according to the invention is characterized in that over the entire circumference of a uniform contact pressure to achieve a moisture-tight finish is obtained.
  • no additional closure elements are necessary, so that the light can be produced on the one hand cost and on the other hand, the amount of work for attaching the cover to the housing is particularly low.
