Description

Leuchte, insbesondere Einbauleuchte Luminaire, in particular recessed luminaire
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Leuchte nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a lamp according to the preamble of claim 1.
Übliche Leuchten zur Beleuchtung eines Raumes kann man hinsichtlich ihrer Position zu einem sie tragenden Träger in zwei Kategorien einteilen. Bei der ersten Kategorie ist die Leuchte mit einem gegebenenfalls vorhandenen und den Reflektor aufnehmenden Gehäuse an einem Leuchtenträger, z.B. an der Decke oder einer Wand des Raumes, oder an einem im Raum angeordneten Leuchtenträger angebaut. Dabei kann die Leuchte als Anbauleuchte unmittelbar am Leuchtenträger oder in einem Abstand davon gehalten sein, z.B. mittels wenigstens eines langgestreckten Aufhängelements, wie eines oder mehrerer Seile, Ketten oder Pendel. Bei der zweiten Kategorie ist die Leuchte als Einbauleuchte wenigstens teilweise in eine Einbauöffnung im Leuchtenträger, z.B. in die Decke oder die Wand des Raumes, eingebaut.Usual luminaires for illuminating a room can be divided into two categories with regard to their position in relation to a support. In the first category, the luminaire is fitted to a luminaire carrier, e.g. with an existing housing and the reflector, e.g. mounted on the ceiling or a wall of the room, or on a light carrier arranged in the room. The luminaire can be held as a surface-mounted luminaire directly on the luminaire carrier or at a distance from it, e.g. by means of at least one elongated suspension element, such as one or more ropes, chains or pendulums. In the second category, the luminaire is at least partially recessed into a recess in the luminaire carrier, e.g. built into the ceiling or wall of the room.
Eine Leuchte der eingangs angegebenen Art ist z.B. in der DE 43 44 376 AI oder der DE 43 44 431 AI beschrieben und zwar jeweils als Einbauleuchte. Bei diesen bekannten Ausgestaltungen ist der Reflektor jeweils durch ein Grundgestell am Leuchtenträger, nämlich der Decke eines Raumes befestigbar, wobei das Grundgestell an seinem in die Abstrahlrichtung weisenden Ende ein flanschförmiges Randteil zum Abdecken der Fuge zwischen dem Einbauöffnungsrand aufweist. Der Grundrahmen ist mittels besonderen Halteteilen am Einbauöffnungsrand der Decke befestigbar und bildet somit ein erstes Haltemittel zum Halten der Leuchte am Leuchtenträger. Ein Lampenhalter oder Fassungsträger für wenigstens eine Lampe ist in einer Position angeordnet, in der er einer Ausnehmung im Reflektor außen gegenüberliegt und durch zweite Haltemittel mit dem Grundrahmen lösbar verbunden ist. Bei dieser bekannten Ausgestaltung ist ein großer Herstellungsaufwand vorgegeben, der auch zu einer handhabungsaufwendigen und zeitaufwendigen Montage bzw. Demontage führt.A lamp of the type specified at the beginning is e.g. described in DE 43 44 376 AI or DE 43 44 431 AI, each as a recessed light. In these known configurations, the reflector can be fastened to the luminaire support, namely the ceiling of a room, by a base frame, the base frame having a flange-shaped edge part at its end pointing in the direction of radiation for covering the joint between the installation opening edge. The base frame can be fastened to the recessed opening edge of the ceiling using special holding parts and thus forms a first holding means for holding the lamp on the luminaire support. A lamp holder or holder for at least one lamp is arranged in a position in which it lies opposite a recess in the reflector on the outside and is detachably connected to the base frame by means of second holding means. In this known embodiment, a large amount of production is specified, which also leads to assembly and disassembly that is time-consuming and time-consuming to handle.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Leuchte der eingangs angegebenen Art zu vereinfachen. Insbesondere soll die Halterung des Lampenhalters verbessert werden.The invention has for its object to simplify a lamp of the type specified. In particular, the mounting of the lamp holder should be improved.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.This object is solved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are described in the subclaims.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung ist der Lampenhalter durch direkte Verbindung mit der Außenseite des Reflektors an diesem befestigt. Hierdurch ist es möglich, den Fassungsträger direkt an der Außenseite des Reflektors zu halten. Im Vergleich mit der gattungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung kann somit ein Grundgestell als mittelbares Halteteil zwischen dem Fassungsträger und dem Reflektor entfallen. Folglich läßt sich die erfindungsgemäße Leuchte einfacher ausgestalten, wobei Herstellungsaufwand, Material, Gewicht, Montage- bzw. Demontageaufwand und Kosten eingespart werden können und eine kleine Bauweise erreicht wird.In the embodiment according to the invention, the lamp holder is fastened to the reflector by a direct connection to the outside thereof. This makes it possible to hold the holder directly on the outside of the reflector. In comparison with the generic configuration, a base frame can thus be used as indirect holding part between the holder and the reflector are eliminated. Consequently, the luminaire according to the invention can be designed in a simpler manner, manufacturing effort, material, weight, assembly and disassembly effort and costs can be saved and a small construction is achieved.
In den Unteransprüchen sind Merkmale enthalten, die die Bauweise und Herstellung weiter vereinfachen und die Montage bzw. Demontage weiter erleichtern. Dabei ist es möglich, den Lampenhalter unlösbar am Reflektor zu befestigen. Im ersteren Fall ist es vorteilhaft, den Lampenhalter einteilig an den Reflektor anzuformen. Hierdurch können beide Teile in einem Arbeitsgang hergestellt werden, wobei diesbezügliche Montagebzw. Demontagemaßnahme entfallen. Durch eine lösbare Befestigung des Lampenhalters läßt sich eine sperrige Bauweise des Reflektors vermeiden. In diesem Falle ist es vorteilhaft, zwischen dem Reflektor und dem Lampenhalter eine Schnellschluß Verbindung, vorzugweise eine Steckverbindung, anzuordnen, wodurch eine handhabungsfreundliche und schnelle Montage bzw. Demontage gewährleistet ist. Es ist z.B. an der Baustelle möglich, den Lampenhalter in einfacher Weise möglichst ohne den Gebrauch von Werkzeugen am Reflektor zu montieren bzw. zu demontieren. Dabei ist es im weiteren vorteilhaft, die Steckverbindung so auszubilden, daß die Einsteckbewegung des Lampenhalters in die Einsteckposition etwa vertikal bzw. nach unten gerichtet ist. Bei einer solchen Ausgestaltung ist der Lampenhalter aufgrund seiner Schwerkraft daran gehindert, sich aus der Steckfassung herauszubewegen. In Fällen, in denen die Einsteckbewegung unter Berücksichtigung des Einbauzustandes der Leuchte nicht nach unten gerichtet ist, ist es vorteilhaft, zwischen dem Reflektor und dem Lampenhalter eine Positioniervorrichtung zum lösbaren Positionieren des Lampenhalters in der eingesteckten Stellung vorzusehen, um unbeabsichtigte Bewegungen des Lampenhalters aus seiner Einsteckstellung heraus zu vermeiden. Eine solche Positioniervorrichtung eignet sich für alle Einbaupositionen und auch dann, wenn die Einsteckbewegung des Lampenhalters nach unten gerichtet ist. Hierdurch wird z.B. vermieden, daß der Lampenhalter durch Montage- bzw. Demontagemaßnahmen aus seiner Einsteckstellung herausbewegt wird, z.B. beim Einstecken einer Lampen in eine Fassung des Lampenhalters. Im übrigen werden Merkmale erreicht, die zu einer kleinen und/ oder kostengünstig hergestellbaren Bauweise der Leuchte bzw. ihrer Teile führen.Features are contained in the subclaims that further simplify the construction and manufacture and further facilitate assembly and disassembly. It is possible to permanently attach the lamp holder to the reflector. In the former case, it is advantageous to form the lamp holder in one piece on the reflector. As a result, both parts can be produced in one operation, with related assembly or. Disassembly is not necessary. A bulky construction of the reflector can be avoided by releasably fastening the lamp holder. In this case, it is advantageous to arrange a quick-connect connection, preferably a plug connection, between the reflector and the lamp holder, as a result of which easy-to-use and quick assembly and disassembly is ensured. It is e.g. possible at the construction site to assemble or disassemble the lamp holder in a simple manner if possible without the use of tools. It is also advantageous to design the plug connection so that the insertion movement of the lamp holder into the insertion position is approximately vertical or downward. In such an embodiment, the lamp holder is prevented from moving out of the socket due to its gravity. In cases where the insertion movement is not directed downwards, taking into account the installed state of the lamp, it is advantageous to provide a positioning device between the reflector and the lamp holder for releasably positioning the lamp holder in the inserted position in order to prevent unintentional movements of the lamp holder from its inserted position to avoid out. Such a positioning device is suitable for all installation positions and also when the insertion movement of the lamp holder is directed downwards. This will e.g. avoided that the lamp holder is moved out of its insertion position by assembly or disassembly measures, e.g. when inserting a lamp into a socket of the lamp holder. In addition, features are achieved that lead to a small and / or inexpensive to manufacture construction of the lamp or its parts.

Am Rand des Umfangswandabschnitts kann ein Außenflansch 15 angeformt sein. Die Innenfläche des Umfangswandsabschnitts und des Deckenwandabschnitts ist als Reflexionsfläche 16 ausgebildet. Hierzu kann die betreffende Innenfläche der Reflektorwand 14 entsprechend behandelt sein oder mit einer Reflexionsschicht beschichtet sein. Zur Positionierung der Lampe 7 im vorzugsweise oberen Bereich des Innenraums 17 des Reflektors 5 ist im Umfangswandabschnitt der Reflektorwand 14 ein Durchführungsloch 18 vorgesehen, das beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel eine im wesentlichen viereckige Form hat. Der Montagering 8 ist mit einem sich koaxial zu seiner Mittelachse erstreckenden Hülsenschenkel 8a und einem davon nach außen abstehenden Flanschschenkel 8b im Querschnitt winkelförmig geformt. Der Montagering 8 kann noch zu beschreibende Befestigungsmittel aufweisen, mit denen er am freien Rand des Reflektors 5 und/oder am Rand der Einbauöffnung 2 lösbar befestigbar ist. Es ist der Zweck des Montagerings 8, einen in der Montagestellung der Leuchte 1 vorhandenen Spalt zwischen dem Rand der Einbauöffnung 2 und dem Reflektor 5 abzudecken. Er kann auf dem Umfang verteilt angeordnete und von ihm nach oben ragende nicht dargestellte Haltefinger aufweisen, die zu einer lösbaren Befestigung am Einbauöffnungsrand diesen lösbar hintergreifen. Außerdem kann der Montagering 8 den Reflektor 5 tragen und somit ein Teil des bereits erwähnten ersten Haltemittels zum Halten des Reflektors 5 in der Einbauöffnung 2 bilden. Es ist auch möglich, daß der Reflektor 5 außen an seinem unteren Rand nach oben ragende Haltefinger für ein lösbares Hintergreifen des Einbauöffnungsrandes aufweist.In the present exemplary embodiment, the lamp 1 or its reflector 5 has a round cross-sectional shape, the cross-section extending at right angles to the main emission direction 13 extending into the space 4. However, the invention is not limited to a round cross-sectional shape. In the context of the invention, the cross-sectional shape can also differ from a round shape, for example a square or square cross-sectional shape. The reflector 5 consists of a dome-shaped reflector wall 14 with a peripheral wall section which diverges in the main emission direction 13 and which merges into a curved ceiling wall section. An outer flange 15 can be formed on the edge of the peripheral wall section. The inner surface of the peripheral wall section and the top wall section is designed as a reflection surface 16. For this purpose, the relevant inner surface of the reflector wall 14 can be treated accordingly or can be coated with a reflection layer. To position the lamp 7 in the preferably upper area of the interior 17 of the reflector 5, a through hole 18 is provided in the peripheral wall section of the reflector wall 14, which has an essentially square shape in the present exemplary embodiment. The mounting ring 8 is angularly shaped in cross section with a sleeve leg 8a extending coaxially to its central axis and a flange leg 8b projecting outward therefrom. The mounting ring 8 can have fastening means to be described, with which it can be detachably fastened to the free edge of the reflector 5 and / or to the edge of the installation opening 2. It is the purpose of the mounting ring 8 to cover a gap existing in the mounting position of the lamp 1 between the edge of the installation opening 2 and the reflector 5. It can have holding fingers, not shown, distributed over the circumference and projecting upward from it, which detachably engage behind the installation opening edge for detachable fastening. In addition, the mounting ring 8 can carry the reflector 5 and thus form part of the already mentioned first holding means for holding the reflector 5 in the installation opening 2. It is also possible for the reflector 5 to have holding fingers projecting upwards on its lower edge for releasable engagement behind the installation opening edge.
Der Montagering 8 kann auch an seiner Innenmantelfläche einen umlaufenden Innenflansch 8c oder mehrere auf dem Umfang verteilt angeordnete Innenansätze vorzugsweise einteilig angeformt aufweisen.The mounting ring 8 can also have a circumferential inner flange 8c or a plurality of inner lugs distributed over the circumference, preferably integrally formed on its inner circumferential surface.
Der Fassungsträger 6 ist durch an ihm ausgebildete zweite Haltemittel 22 und mit diesen korrespondierende dritte Haltemittel 23, die von außen zugänglich am Reflektor 5 angeordnet sind, unmittelbar am Reflektor 5 positionierbar. Die zweiten und dritten Haltemittel 22,23 bilden eine Schnellschluß Verbindung, insbesondere eine Steckverbindung 24, die es ermöglicht, den Fassungsträger 6 handhabungsfreundlich und schnell am Reflektor 5 zu montieren bzw. zu demontieren. Die zweiten Haltemittel 22 und/oder ihre Tragteile sind vorzugsweise einteilig am Fassungsträger 6 angeformt. Entsprechend sind auch die dritten Haltemittel 23 und/oder ihre Tragteile vorzugsweise einteilig am Reflektor 5 angeformt. Hierdurch ist eine rationelle und kostengünstige Fertigung möglich. Es ist vorteilhaft, die Haltemittel 22,23 so auszubilden, daß sie durch eine etwa in die Hauptabstrahlrichtung 13 verlaufende Bewegung des Fassungsträgers 6 in Halteeingriff bringbar sind und durch eine umgekehrte Bewegung des Fassungsträgers 6 voneinander lösbar sind. Hierzu kann eine Führung mit wenigstens einem Führungsteil dienen, das in der Führung bis zu einer Endstellung verschiebbar, jedoch quer zur Führung formschlüssig in der Führung gehalten ist.The mount carrier 6 can be positioned directly on the reflector 5 by means of second holding means 22 formed on it and corresponding third holding means 23, which are arranged on the reflector 5 and are accessible from the outside. The second and third holding means 22, 23 form a quick-connect connection, in particular a plug-in connection 24, which enables the holder 6 to be assembled and disassembled quickly and easily on the reflector 5. The second holding means 22 and / or their supporting parts are preferably formed in one piece on the frame carrier 6. Correspondingly, the third holding means 23 and / or their supporting parts are also preferably integrally formed on the reflector 5. This makes rational and cost-effective production possible. It is advantageous to design the holding means 22, 23 in such a way that they can be brought into holding engagement by a movement of the holder 6 in the main emission direction 13 and can be detached from one another by a reverse movement of the holder 6. A guide with at least one guide part can be used for this purpose, which can be displaced in the guide up to an end position, but is held in a form-fitting manner in the guide transverse to the guide.
Beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel sind die dritten Haltemittel 23 durch einander gegenüberliegend angeordnete Nuten 23 a in zu beiden Seiten des Durchführungslochs 18 angeordneten Stegwänden 23b gebildet, die sich im wesentlichen parallel zueinander und im wesentlichen parallel zur Hauptabstrahlrichtung 13 erstrecken und vorzugsweise einteilig an der Reflektorwand 14 befestigt sind, vorzugsweise angeformt sind. Der Fassungsträger 6 weist voneinander weg abstehende Führungsstege 22a auf, die mit Gleitspiel in die Führungsnuten 23a passen. Die durch den Pfeil 25 verdeutlichte Einsteckbewegung kann durch die Enden der Führungsnuten 23 a und/oder durch eine Stufenfläche 25a an der Reflektorwand 14 begrenzt sein. Der Fassungsträger 6 kann ein quaderförmiges Fassungsgehäuse 26 aufweisen, in dem eine oder mehrere nur in Fig. 3 dargestellte Fassungen 26a in einem Fassungskörper 26b angeordnet sind, die von der dem Reflektor 5 zugewandten Stirnseite des Gehäuses 26 her mit einer oder mehreren Lampen 7, hier zwei Stück, zugänglich sind. In den Figuren sind die sich quer zur offenen Stirnseite erstreckenden Seitenwände 26c, eine Deckenwand 26d und eine Rückwand 26e des Fassungsgehäuses 26 sichtbar. Die Deckenwand 26d ist vorzugsweise über die Stirnseite des Fassungsgehäuses 26 verlängert, wobei ihre Stirnkante 26f sich bis zum Umfangswandabschnitt des Reflektors 5 erstreckt und entsprechend dessen Form konkav geformt ist. Hierdurch wird ein sich oberhalb des Durchführungslochs 18 aufgrund der Divergenz des Umfangswandsabschnitts ergebender Freiraum abgedeckt, wobei die Verlängerung der Deckenwand 26c einen Schutz gegen Staubbefall der wenigestens einen Fassung bzw. Lampe 7 bildet.In the present exemplary embodiment, the third holding means 23 are formed by mutually opposite grooves 23a in web walls 23b which are arranged on both sides of the through hole 18 and are essentially parallel to one another and extend essentially parallel to the main emission direction 13 and are preferably attached in one piece to the reflector wall 14, are preferably molded on. The frame carrier 6 has guide webs 22a which project away from one another and fit into the guide grooves 23a with sliding play. The insertion movement illustrated by the arrow 25 can be limited by the ends of the guide grooves 23 a and / or by a step surface 25 a on the reflector wall 14. The holder 6 can have a cuboid socket 26, in which one or more sockets 26a, only shown in FIG. 3, are arranged in a socket body 26b, which, with the reflector 5 facing the end of the housing 26, has one or more lamps 7, here two pieces, are accessible. In the figures, the side walls 26c extending transversely to the open end face, a top wall 26d and a rear wall 26e of the socket housing 26 are visible. The top wall 26d is preferably extended over the end face of the socket housing 26, its end edge 26f extending as far as the peripheral wall section of the reflector 5 and being concavely shaped in accordance with its shape. As a result, a free space resulting above the through hole 18 due to the divergence of the peripheral wall section is covered, the extension of the top wall 26c forming a protection against dust infestation of the at least one socket or lamp 7.
Die Schnellschlußverbindung bzw. Steckverbindung 24 ermöglicht ein handhabungsfreundliches und schnelles Montieren bzw. Demontieren des Fassungsträgers 6 am Reflektor 5, nämlich durch einfaches Einstecken der zweiten Haltemittel 22 in die dritten Haltemittel 23. Dies kann vor dem Einbau des Reflektors 5 in die Einbauöffnung 2 erfolgen, wobei der soweit vormontiere Reflektor 5 mit dem Betriebsmittelgehäuse 11 und dem Fassungsträger 6 in einer gekippten Position in die Einbauöffnung 2 einsteckbar und dann in seine Normalstellung gekippt werden kann. Eine Möglichkeit zur Positionierung des Reflektors 5 an der Einbauwand 5 kann - wie vorbeschrieben - durch den Montagering 8 oder durch am Reflektor 5 angeordnete Haltemittel erfolgen. Es ist von Vorteil, den Fassungsträger 6 in seiner in die Steckfassung 24 eingesteckten Position durch wenigstens ein Positionierelement lösbar zu positionieren, vorzugsweise durch eine Klemm- oder Verrastungsvorrichtung, die lösbar oder vorzugsweise zu ihrer Lösung manuell überdrückbar sind. Eine Klemmvorrichtung kann z.B. dadurch gebildet sein, daß im Endbereich der Steckfassung seitlich wenigstens ein Klemmnocken 27 angeordnet, insbesondere angeformt ist, der das zugehörige Haltemittel 22 in der Einsteckendstellung klemmt und somit arretiert. Zum Lösen ist diese Klemmung vorzugsweise manuell überdrückbar. Bei allen Ausgestaltungen kann der Montagering 8 auch als Träger zur lösbaren Befestigung von Zubehörteilen, z.B. für eine den Innenraum 17 des Reflektors 5 abdeckende Scheibe dienen. Dies ist aus Vereinfachungsgründen nicht dargestellt.The quick-connect connection or plug-in connection 24 enables the mount holder 6 to be mounted and removed on the reflector 5 in a manner which is easy to handle and quick to handle, namely by simply inserting the second holding means 22 into the third holding means 23. This can be done before the reflector 5 is installed in the installation opening 2. the reflector 5, which has been preassembled so far, can be inserted into the installation opening 2 in a tilted position with the operating medium housing 11 and the mount support 6 and then tilted into its normal position. One possibility for positioning the reflector 5 on the installation wall 5 can - as described above - take place through the mounting ring 8 or through holding means arranged on the reflector 5. It is advantageous to releasably position the socket carrier 6 in its position inserted into the socket 24 by at least one positioning element, preferably by a clamping or latching device, which can be releasably or preferably manually overridden to solve it. A clamping device can be formed, for example, in that at least one clamping cam 27 is arranged laterally in the end region of the plug-in socket, in particular integrally formed, which clamps the associated holding means 22 in the inserted end position and thus locks it. This release can preferably be manually overridden to release. In all configurations, the mounting ring 8 can also serve as a carrier for the detachable fastening of accessories, for example for a pane covering the interior 17 of the reflector 5. For reasons of simplification, this is not shown.
Der Reflektor 5, der Fassungsträger 6 und/oder der Montagering 8 bestehen vorzugsweise aus einem Material, das durch Spritzgießen (Spritzguß) oder Druckgießen (Druckguß) herstellbar ist, z.B. Aluminium oder Kunststoff, wobei die Teile mit ihren Anbauteilen jeweils einstückig geformt sind und einfach und kostengünstig durch Spritzgießen hergestellt werden können.The reflector 5, the holder 6 and / or the mounting ring 8 are preferably made of a material that can be produced by injection molding (injection molding) or die casting (die casting), e.g. Aluminum or plastic, whereby the parts with their attachments are each formed in one piece and can be produced simply and inexpensively by injection molding.
Die Lampen 7 können nach dem Anmontieren des Fassungsträgers 6 an den Reflektor 5 von dessen Innenraum 17 montiert, d.h., in die Fassungen 26a eingesetzt, werden. The lamps 7 can be mounted on the reflector 5 from the interior 17 thereof, i.e. inserted into the sockets 26a, after the mounting of the holder 6.
