Abstract

Fastenings (5, 17) permit the lighting unit (1) to be moved from a first position, into its final position with its back flat against the wall or ceiling. This is achieved by pivoting about an axis running parallel to the mounting surface.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anbauleuchte mit Befestigungselementen, welche eine vorläufige Befestigung der Anbauleuchte an einer Wand oder Decke in einer ersten Montagestufe so erlauben, dass die Anbauleuchte einen Abstand zu der Wand oder Decke und ihre Rückseite für einen elektrischen Anschluss zugänglich ist, und welche eine endgültige Befestigung der Anbauleuchte in einer zweiten Montagestufe so erlauben, dass die Rückseite der Anbauleuchte an der Wand oder Decke anliegt, wobei die Befestigungselemente so gestaltet sind, dass die Überführung der Anbauleuchte von der ersten in die zweite Montagestufe mit einer Schwenkbewegung der Anbauleuchte um eine parallel zur Wand oder Decke verlaufende Schwenkachse verbunden ist.The invention relates to a surface-mounted luminaire with fastening elements, which allow a temporary attachment of the surface-mounted luminaire to a wall or ceiling in a first assembly stage so that the surface-mounted luminaire is a distance from the wall or ceiling and its rear side accessible for electrical connection, and which one final Fixing the surface mounted luminaire in a second mounting stage so that the back of the surface mounted luminaire rests against the wall or ceiling, wherein the fastening elements are designed so that the transfer of the surface mounted luminaire from the first to the second mounting stage with a pivoting movement of the surface mounted luminaire around a parallel to Wall or ceiling extending pivot axis is connected.

Derartige Anbauleuchten sind bekannt ( DE 18 92 307 U1 , DE 94 07 583 U1 , DE 89 01 708 U1 ). Bei den bekannten Anbauleuchten erfolgt die Überführung von der ersten Montagestufe in die zweite Montagestufe ausschließlich durch eine Schwenkbewegung. In der Anbaustellung der Leuchte sind die decken- oder wandseitigen Befestigungselemente sichtbar.Such surface-mounted lights are known ( DE 18 92 307 U1 . DE 94 07 583 U1 . DE 89 01 708 U1 ). In the known surface-mounted lights, the transfer from the first assembly stage to the second assembly stage takes place exclusively by a pivoting movement. In the add-on position of the luminaire, the ceiling or wall-mounted fasteners are visible.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Anbauleuchte so zu gestalten, dass die Befestigungselemente bei Bedarf nicht mehr sichtbar sind nachdem die Leuchte in die Anbaustellung überführt worden ist.The invention has for its object to make a surface mounted luminaire so that the fasteners are no longer visible when needed after the lamp has been transferred to the growing position.

Die Aufgabe ist dadurch gelöst, dass die Befestigungselemente ferner so ausgebildet sind, dass die Leuchte durch die Schwenkbewegung zunächst in eine etwa parallel zur Anbaustellung gerichtete Zwischenstellung überführbar ist, und dass die Leuchte dann durch eine quer zu ihrer Rückseite gerichtete Bewegung in die zweite Montagestellung gelangt, die auch die Anbaustellung ist.The object is achieved in that the fastening elements are further designed such that the lamp is first transferred by the pivoting movement in an approximately parallel to the mounting position intermediate position, and that the lamp then passes through a transversely directed to its rear movement in the second mounting position which is also the growing position.

Durch die nunmehr zusätzlich notwendige Querverschiebung der Leuchte gegen die Wand oder Decke können die wand- oder deckenseitigen Befestigungselemente in die Anbauleuchte eintauchen und sind nach Erreichen der Anbaustellung nicht mehr sichtbar.By now additionally necessary transverse displacement of the lamp against the wall or ceiling, the wall or ceiling-side fasteners can immerse in the surface-mounted luminaire and are no longer visible after reaching the growing position.

Eine zweckmäßige Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann darin bestehen, dass die wand-oder deckenseitigen Befestigungselemente ein U-förmiges und somit doppelwinkelförmiges Winkelelement mit mindestens zwei Halteschenkeln sind. Dabei sollte wenigstens ein Halteschenkel aus elastisch biegbarem Material bestehen.An expedient embodiment of the invention may consist in that the wall or ceiling-side fastening elements are a U-shaped and thus double-angle angular element with at least two retaining legs. At least one retaining leg should consist of elastically bendable material.

Bei der Anbauleuchte nach Anspruch 15 sind die Befestigungselemente und die Stirnteile so gestaltet, daß je ein Befestigungselement zugleich an zwei benachbarten Stirnteilen angreifen kann. Hierdurch läßt sich die Anzahl der Befestigungselemente zur Befestigung der Leuchten an der Wand oder Decke reduzieren, da jeweils einander benachbarte Stirnteile durch ein gemeinsames Befestigungselement an der Decke befestigbar sind. Außerdem wird sowohl der Bauaufwand als auch der Montageaufwand wesentlich verringert, weil eine geringere Anzahl Befestigungselemente an der Decke zu montieren sind. Zur Befestigung zwischen den Stirnteilen und den Befestigungselementen eignet sich jeweils eine Einhängevorrichtung oder eine Verrastungsvorrichtung besonders gut, weil hierdurch eine schnelle und handhabungsfreundliche Montage möglich ist.In the surface-mounted luminaire according to claim 15, the fastening elements and the end parts are designed so that each one fastener can simultaneously attack on two adjacent end parts. As a result, the number of fasteners for mounting the lights on the wall or ceiling can be reduced, since each adjacent end portions are fastened by a common fastener on the ceiling. In addition, both the construction cost and the installation effort is significantly reduced because a smaller number of fasteners are to be mounted on the ceiling. For attachment between the end parts and the fastening elements is in each case a suspension device or a latching device is particularly well, because in this way a quick and easy to handle assembly is possible.

Es ist auch vorteilhaft, die Befestigungselemente gabelförmig auszubilden, so daß jeweils ein Gabelteil für das eine Stirnteil und das andere Gabelteil für das andere Stirnteil zur Verfügung steht. Hierdurch wird nicht nur eine platzsparende Bauweise geschaffen, sondern es ist auch möglich, die Stirnteile direkt nebeneinander anzuordnen, so daß Spalten zwischen den Stirnteilen vermieden werden können. Ein weiterer Vorteil dieser erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung besteht darin, daß im befestigten Zustand beide Leuchten wahlweise quer zur Wand oder Decke bewegbar und somit nacheinander montierbar und gegebenenfalls auch demontierbar sind.It is also advantageous to form fork-shaped fastening elements, so that in each case a fork part for the one front part and the other fork part for the other front part is available. As a result, not only a space-saving design is created, but it is also possible to arrange the end portions directly next to each other, so that gaps between the end portions can be avoided. Another advantage of this embodiment of the invention is that in the mounted state both lights are selectively movable transversely to the wall or ceiling and thus successively mounted and optionally also disassembled.

Der Erfindung liegt im weiteren die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Leuchte nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 19 so auszugestalten, daß eine Stabilisierung des Lichtbandes erreichbar ist.The invention is based on the further object to design a lamp according to the preamble of claim 19 so that a stabilization of the light band can be achieved.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 19 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in zugehörigen Unteransprüchen beschrieben.This object is solved by the features of claim 19. Advantageous developments of the invention are described in the appended subclaims.

Bei der Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 19 weisen zumindest diejenigen Stirnteile, die in dem Lichtband gegen andere Stirnteile zu richten sind, an ihrer Außenseite mindestens ein Verbindungselement auf, welches zur Herstellung einer Verbindung mit dem benachbarten Stirnteil bestimmt ist. Hierdurch läßt sich das Lichtband durch die axiale Verbindung betreffender Stirnteile miteinander nicht nur in der Längsrichtung des Lichtbandes, sondern auch in der Querrichtung stabilisieren.In the embodiment according to claim 19, at least those end parts, which are to be directed in the light band against other end parts, on its outer side at least one connecting element, which is intended for establishing a connection with the adjacent end part. As a result, the light band can be stabilized by the axial connection of relevant end portions together not only in the longitudinal direction of the light band, but also in the transverse direction.

Die Verbindungselemente weisen vorzugsweise pilzkopfförmige Verdickungen auf, die in entsprechend geformte Hinterschneidungen am benachbarten Stirnteil einfassen. Hierdurch läßt sich eine formschlüssige Verbindung und einfache und montagefreundliche Bauweise erreichen, da ineinandergreifende Stirnteile durch eine quer zu ihrer Längsrichtung gerichteten Bewegung zusammensteckbar und somit montierbar sind. Es eignen sich Befestigungselemente mit pilzkopfförmig oder schwalbenschwanzförmig divergenten Stegen und diese aufnehmenden Nuten sehr vorteilhaft.The connecting elements preferably have mushroom-shaped thickenings, which engage in correspondingly shaped undercuts on the adjacent front part. In this way, a positive connection and simple and easy to install design can be achieved because interlocking end parts by a Direction transverse to its longitudinal direction directed movement can be plugged together and thus mounted. There are fasteners with mushroom-shaped or dovetailed divergent webs and these receiving grooves very beneficial.

Weitere Merkmale in den Unteransprüchen führen zu einfachen und kostengünstig herstellbaren Ausgestaltungen kleiner Bauweise, die eine einfache und schnelle Montage ermöglichen und es außerdem ermöglichen, die Leuchte als Baustellenleuchte zu verwenden, ohne daß mit einem wesentlichen Verschmutzungsgrad der Leuchte zu rechnen ist.Other features in the dependent claims lead to simple and inexpensive to produce designs of small size, which allow easy and quick installation and also allow to use the lamp as a construction site without having to expect a significant degree of contamination of the lamp.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Leuchte 1 von länglicher Bauweise und sie weist zwei an ihren Enden angeordnete Befestigungsvorrichtungen 5 auf, wobei sie sich in einer ersten Bauweise für eine Einzelanordnung eignet und in einer zweiten Bauweise mit mehreren in einer Längsreihe angeordneten Leuchten 1 gleichen Typs dazu eignet, ein sogenanntes Lichtband zu bilden.In the embodiment, the lamp 1 is of elongated construction and it has two arranged at their ends fastening devices 5, wherein it is suitable in a first construction for a single arrangement and in a second construction with a plurality of arranged in a longitudinal row lights 1 of the same type, to form a so-called light band.

Das Gehäuse 2 umfaßt einen länglichen Profilkörper 6, der aus dünnem Material, z. B. Blech, besteht und im wesentlichen die Querschnittsform eines auf dem Kopf stehenden U aufweist, und in der ersten Bauweise zwei kappenförmige Endteile 7, die mit den Enden des Profilkörpers 6 zusammengesteckt sind und den Profilkörper 6 endseitig schließen. Das oder die Endteile 7 bzw. das oder die Stirnzwischenteile 8 sind somit Stirnteile.The housing 2 comprises an elongated profile body 6, which consists of thin material, for. B. sheet metal, and has substantially the cross-sectional shape of an inverted U, and in the first construction, two cap-shaped end portions 7, which are mated with the ends of the profile body 6 and close the profile body 6 end. The one or more end parts 7 or the or the intermediate end parts 8 are thus end parts.

In der zweiten Bauweise der Leuchte 1, die hierbei einen Leuchtenabschnitt bildet, weist der Profilkörper 6 entweder an beiden Enden zusammengesteckte Stirnzwischenteile 8 auf, wenn es sich um einen mittleren Leuchtenabschnitt handelt, oder er weist an einem Ende ein zusammengestecktes Endteil 7 und an seinem anderen Ende ein zusammengestecktes Stirnzwischenteil 8 auf, wenn es sich um einen endseitigen Leuchtenabschnitt des Lichtbandes handelt.In the second construction of the lamp 1, which in this case forms a lamp section, the profile body 6 either at both ends mated end intermediate parts 8, if it is a middle lamp section, or he has at one end a mating end portion 7 and at the other End of a plugged end intermediate part 8, if it is an end-side lighting portion of the light band.

Wie insbesondere aus Fig. 4 und 5 ersichtlich ist, ist die Querschnittsform des Profilkörpers 6 mit oberen, sich seitlich nach unten divergent erstreckenden Seitenabschnitten 6a und unteren, sich von diesen nach unten konvergent erstreckenden Seitenabschnitten 6b zu einer C-förmigen Querschnittsform spezifiziert. Im oberen mittleren Bereich weist der Profilkörper 6 eine eingeformte Rinne 6c auf, die durch einen sich etwa horizontal erstreckenden mittigen Basisabschnitt 6d und von diesem sich seitlich nach oben divergent erstreckenden Seitenabschnitten 6e gebildet ist, von denen sich die Seitenabschnitt 6a, 6b fortsetzen und jeweils eine nach oben gerichtete Wölbung 6f bilden. Von den unteren Seitenabschnitten 6b setzen sich Randstreifen 6g fort, die nach oben gerichtet sind.4 and 5, the cross-sectional shape of the tread body 6 is specified with upper side divergently extending laterally downwards side portions 6a and lower side converging convergent side portions 6b into a C-shaped cross-sectional shape. In the upper middle region, the profile body 6 has a molded-in Channel 6c, which is formed by a central portion 6d extending approximately horizontally and by laterally upwardly divergently extending side portions 6e, from which the side portions 6a, 6b continue and in each case form an upwardly directed curvature 6f. From the lower side portions 6b edge strips 6g continue, which are directed upwards.

Die vorzugsweise identisch ausgebildeten Endteile 7 weisen jeweils eine Stirnwand 7a und sich von dieser zum Profilkörper 6 hin erstreckende und der Querschnittsform des Profilkörpers 6 entsprechend angeordnete und geformte Seitenwandabschnitte 7b, 7d, 7e, 7f, 7g auf, von denen sich Seitenwandabschnitte 7b1, 7d1, 7e1, 7f1, 7g1 fortsetzen, deren Außenflächen bezüglich der Außenflächen der ersteren Seitenwandabschnitte nach innen um ein Versatzmaß a versetzt sind, das der Dicke des Profilkörpers 6 entspricht. Der die Seitenwandabschnitte 7b1, 7d1, 7e1, 7f1, 7g1 übergreifende und daran anliegende Profilkörper 6 füllt die so gebildete Versatzstufe aus, so daß die Oberflächen des Profilkörpers 6 und der Seitenwandabschnitte 7b, 7d, 7e, 7f miteinander abschließen.The preferably identically formed end parts 7 each have an end wall 7a and side wall sections 7b, 7d, 7e, 7f, 7g extending from this to the profile body 6 and corresponding to the cross-sectional shape of the profile body 6, of which side wall sections 7b1, 7d1, Continue 7e1, 7f1, 7g1, whose outer surfaces are offset with respect to the outer surfaces of the former side wall portions inwardly by a Versatzmaß a, which corresponds to the thickness of the profile body 6. The profiled body 6 which overlaps and engages the side wall sections 7b1, 7d1, 7e1, 7f1, 7g1 fills the offset step thus formed, so that the surfaces of the profiled body 6 and the side wall sections 7b, 7d, 7e, 7f terminate with one another.

Zur Befestigung des Profilkörpers 6 mit den Endteilen 7 sind durch Verrastungsausnehmungen 9a und darin einfassende Verrastungsnoppen 9b gebildete Verrastungen 9 gebildet. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Verrastungsnoppen 9b an den Seitenwandabschnitten 7f1 und 7g1 angeordnet und die Verrastungsausnehmungen 9a in den Seitenabschnitten 6f, 6g. Die Verrastungsnoppen 9b weisen vorzugsweise gerundete oder schräge Anlaufflächen auf, wodurch beim Zusammenstecken die die Verrastungsausnehmungen 9a enthaltenden Bereiche selbsttätig ausfedern und dann auf die Verrastungsnoppen 9b einfedern. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Verrastungsvorrichtungen 9 im Bereich der Wölbungen 6f, 7f1 und im Bereich von aufrechten Randstegen 6g, 7g1 angeordnet.For fixing the profiled body 6 with the end parts 7 9 are formed by Verrastungsausnehmungen 9a and therein latching Verrastungsnoppen notches 9. In the embodiment, the latching nubs 9b are disposed on the side wall portions 7f1 and 7g1 and the latching recesses 9a in the side portions 6f, 6g.

In the exemplary embodiment, the latching devices 9 are arranged in the region of the bulges 6f, 7f1 and in the region of upright edge webs 6g, 7g1.

An der Unter- bzw. Innenseite des Basisabschnitts 6d sind in den Endbereichen des Profilkörpers Lampenfassungen 11 befestigt, zwischen denen die Lampe 4 in Form einer Leuchtstoffröhre in üblicher Weise eingesteckt ist. Im Gehäuse 2 ist ein Reflektor 12 mit zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Reflektorseitenwänden 12a angeordnet, die sich bis in den Bereich der Längsseitenränder der Abstrahlöffnung 3 erstrecken. Der Reflektor 12 ist vorzugsweise von unten durch die Abstrahlöffnung 3 einsetzbar und befestigbar, vorzugsweise durch Verrastungsmittel 13, die zwischen ihm und Teilen des Gehäuses 2 wirksam sind. Im Bereich der Abstrahlöffnung 3 sind Lichtbeeinflussungsmittel 14 angeordnet, die beim Ausführungsbeispiel durch Querlamellen 15 gebildet sind, die mit den Reflektorseitenwänden 12a verbunden sind und mit diesen eine Reflektoreinheit bilden. Die Verrastungsmittel 13 können beim Einsetzen des Reflektors 12 bzw. der Reflektoreinheit selbsttätig elastisch ausweichende und mit Teilen des Gehäuses zusammenwirkende Verrastungsnasen gebildet sein, die vorzugsweise an elastisch biegbaren Federbügeln 16 angeordnet sind. Die Lampenfassungen 11 können alternativ an dem wenigstens einen Endteil 7 und dem wenigstens einen Stirnzwischenteil 8 in deren oberem Bereich angeordnet sein.At the bottom or inside of the base portion 6 d lamp sockets 11 are fixed in the end regions of the profile body, between which the lamp 4 is plugged in the usual manner in the form of a fluorescent tube. In the housing 2, a reflector 12 is arranged with two opposite reflector side walls 12a, which extend into the region of the longitudinal side edges of the emission opening 3. The reflector 12 is preferably insertable from below through the emission opening 3 and fastened, preferably by latching means 13, which are effective between it and parts of the housing 2. In the region of the emission opening 3, light-influencing means 14 are arranged, which in the exemplary embodiment are formed by transverse lamellae 15 which are connected to the reflector side walls 12a are and form a reflector unit with these. The latching means 13 may be formed on insertion of the reflector 12 and the reflector unit automatically elastically evasive and cooperating with parts of the housing Verrastungsnasen, which are preferably arranged on elastically bendable spring clips 16. The lamp sockets 11 may alternatively be arranged on the at least one end part 7 and the at least one intermediate end part 8 in its upper region.

Die Stirnzwischenteile 8 weisen jeweils eine sich quer bzw. im wesentlich rechtwinkelig zur Längsachse 2a des Gehäuses erstreckende Basiswand 8a auf, von deren Rand sich Seitenwandabschnitte 8b1, 8d1, 8e1, 8f1, 8g1 zum zugehörigen Profilkörper 6 hin erstrecken, deren Anordnung und Form den Seitenwandabschnitten 7b1, 7d1, 7e1, 7f1, 7g1 so angepaßt ist, daß der Profilkörper 6 mit geringem Bewegungsspiel auf die Seitenwandabschnitte 8a1, 8b1, 8d1, 8e1, 8f1, 8g1 aufsteckbar und durch Verrastungsvorrichtungen 9 verrastbar, den zwischen den Profilkörper 6 und den Seitenwandabschnitte 7b1 wirksamen Verrastungsvorrichtungen 9 entsprechen, auf deren Beschreibung zwecks Vermeidung von Wiederholungen verwiesen wird.The intermediate end parts 8 each have a base wall 8a extending transversely or substantially at right angles to the longitudinal axis 2a of the housing, from the edge of which side wall sections 8b1, 8d1, 8e1, 8f1, 8g1 extend to the associated profile body 6 whose arrangement and shape are the side wall sections 7b1, 7d1, 7e1, 7f1, 7g1 is adapted so that the profile body 6 with little play on the side wall sections 8a1, 8b1, 8d1, 8e1, 8f1, 8g1 attachable and latched by latching devices 9, the between the profile body 6 and the side wall portions 7b1 correspond to effective locking devices 9, the description of which reference is made to avoid repetition.

Um bei einem Lichtband den zwischen zwei einander stirnseitig benachbarten Profilkörpern 6 den durch die Basiswände 8a vorgegebenen Spalt auszufüllen, sind an den Fußenden der Seitenwandabschnitte 8a1, 8b1, 8d1, 8e1, 8f1 quer zur Längsachse 2a von den Seitenwandstücken 8b nach außen ragende Randstege 8a2 angeordnet, deren Außenflächen im montierten Zustand mit den zugehörigen Seitenabschnitten des Profilkörpers 6 abschließen. Vorzugsweise sind die Randstege 8a2 nur an einer Seitenhälfte der Stirnzwischenteile 8 angeordnet. Dieser Sachverhalt wird weiter unten noch beschrieben.In order to fill the gap predetermined by the base walls 8a in the case of a light band between the two profile bodies 6 adjacent to each other at the end face, edge ridges 8a2 projecting outwardly from the side wall pieces 8b are arranged at the foot ends of the side wall sections 8a1, 8b1, 8d1, 8e1, 8f1 transversely to the longitudinal axis 2a whose outer surfaces terminate in the assembled state with the associated side sections of the profile body 6. Preferably, the edge webs 8a2 are arranged only on one side half of the intermediate end parts 8. This situation will be described below.

Es ist möglich, die Leuchte 1 bzw. das Gehäuse 2 mit nur einer Vorrichtung 5 an der Wand oder Decke bzw. einem entsprechenden Träger zu befestigen. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel mit einer länglichen Leuchte 1 sind zwei Vorrichtungen 5 vorgesehen, die in den Endbereichen der Leuchte 1 angeordnet sind. Die beiden Vorrichtungen 5 sind bezüglich der mit E2 bezeichneten Quermittelebene des Profilkörpers 6 symmetrisch ausgebildet und angeordnet, und deshalb wird im weiteren aus Vereinfachungsgründen nur eine Vorrichtung 5 beschrieben.It is possible to attach the lamp 1 or the housing 2 with only one device 5 to the wall or ceiling or a corresponding carrier. In the embodiment with an elongate lamp 1, two devices 5 are provided, which are arranged in the end regions of the lamp 1. The two devices 5 are formed and arranged symmetrically with respect to the transverse center plane designated by E2 of the profile body 6, and therefore only one device 5 will be described below for reasons of simplification.

Die Vorrichtung 5 weist ein U-förmiges und somit doppel-winkelförmiges Winkelelement 17 mit mindestens zwei Schenkeln 17a, 18a auf, von denen einer ein Basisschenkel 17a ist, der wenigstens ein Befestigungselement zum Befestigen an der Decke aufweist, hier wenigstens einen Querschlitz 19, der eine quer einstellbare Schraubverbindung mit der Decke durch wenigstens eine nicht dargestellte Schraube ermöglicht. Der andere, sich quer zur Anbauseite 10 der Leuchte 1 erstreckende Halteschenkel 18a weist an seinem freien Ende ein Verbindungsteil 21 auf, das mit einem am Gehäuse 2 angeordneten ersten korrespondierenden Verbindungsteil 22a um eine Schwenkachse 23 schwenkbar mit dem Gehäuse 2 verbindbar ist, die sich parallel zur Längsmittelachse des Gehäuses 2 erstreckt und vorzugsweise bezüglich der Längsmittelebene E1 seitlich versetzt ist. Das Verbindungsteil 21 ist beim Ausführungsbeispiel durch einen Hakenschenkel 21a gebildet, der sich vorzugsweise nach innen, d. h. in Richtung auf die Längsmittelebene E1, erstreckt. Wenigstens der Halteschenkel 18a besteht aus elastisch biegbarem Material, z. B. Federstahl, so daß der Halteschenkel 18a beim noch zu beschreibenden Montieren der Leuchte 1 seitlich elastisch ausbiegen sowie hinter einer ein zweites korrespondierendes Verbindungsteil 22b bildenden Verrastungskante einfedern kann. Das Ausbiegen kann selbsttätig durch eine Anlauffläche 24 erfolgen, die durch den schrägen Hakenschenkel 21a gebildet sein kann. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel besteht das Winkelelement 17 aus einem in der Längsrichtung der Leuchte 1 flach angeordneten leistenförmigen Flachmaterial. Das zweite Verbindungsteil 22b weist vom ersten Verbindungsteil 22a einen quer zur Anbauseite 10 bzw. Rückseite 25 gerichteten Abstand b auf, der der Rückseite 25 abgewandt ist.The device 5 has a U-shaped and thus double-angle angular element 17 with at least two legs 17 a, 18 a, one of which is a base leg 17 a, the at least one fastening element for attachment to the Ceiling, here at least one transverse slot 19 which allows a transversely adjustable screw connection to the ceiling by at least one screw, not shown. The other, extending transversely to the mounting side 10 of the lamp 1 holding leg 18a has at its free end a connecting part 21 which is connected to a housing 2 arranged on the first corresponding connecting part 22a about a pivot axis 23 pivotally connected to the housing 2, which are parallel extends to the longitudinal central axis of the housing 2 and is preferably laterally offset with respect to the longitudinal center plane E1. The connecting part 21 is formed in the embodiment by a hook leg 21a, which preferably extends inwards, ie in the direction of the longitudinal center plane E1. At least the retaining leg 18a is made of elastically bendable material, for. As spring steel, so that the retaining leg 18a in the later to be described mounting the lamp 1 laterally elastically bend and behind a second corresponding connecting part 22b forming latching edge can deflect. The bending can be done automatically by a contact surface 24, which may be formed by the oblique hook leg 21a. In the exemplary embodiment, the angle element 17 consists of a strip-shaped flat material arranged flat in the longitudinal direction of the luminaire 1. The second connecting part 22b has from the first connecting part 22a a transversely directed to the mounting side 10 and back 25 distance b, which faces away from the back 25.

Die Verbindungsteile 21, 22a, 22b sind so ausgebildet, daß die Verbindung durch ein Zusammenstecken oder Einhängen der Verbindungsteile geschlossen und somit die Leuchte 1 aufgehängt werden kann. Dabei ist es vorteilhaft, das Verbindungselement 22a am oberen Rand des Gehäuses 2, z. B. am oberen Längsrand, anzuordnen, so daß die Leuchte 1 entweder in einer abgeschwenkten Stellung mit dem Verbindungsteil 21 verbunden, insbesondere eingehängt, werden kann oder in einer anderen Stellung, z. B. in ihrer Anbaustellung, verbunden und abgeschwenkt werden kann. In der abgeschwenkten Stellung schließt die Rückseite 25 der Leuchte 1 mit der Decke bzw. der Wand einen Winkel W ein, der so groß ist, daß die Leuchte 1 von ihrer Rückseite 25 her für ihren elektrischen Anschluß zugänglich ist und die Adern einer an der Decke oder Wand vorhandenen Stromleitung 20 mit zugehörigen elektrischen Verbindungsteilen 26 verbindbar sind. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel sind die elektrischen Verbindungsteile 26 durch eine Aussparung 27 im Profilkörper 6 zugänglich. Dabei befinden sich die elektrischen Verbindungsteile im Bereich der Aussparung 27 im Profilkörper 6 bzw. unterhalb der Ebene des Basisabschnitts 6d. Die elektrischen Verbindungsteile 26 können durch Steckkontaktelemente gebildet sein, so daß die Adern der Stromleitung 20 handhabungsfreundlich eingesteckt werden können, um die elektrische Verbindung zu schließen. Zugehörige Betriebsmittel wie ein Vorschaltgerät können ebenfalls im Profilkörper 6 unterhalb des Basisabschnitts 6d oder an einer anderen geeigneten Stelle angeordnet sein. Es ist auch möglich, die vorbeschriebenen Betriebsmittel einschließlich die elektrischen Verbindungsteile 26 in der Rinne 6c anzuordnen. In allen diesen Fällen ist die Leuchte 1 von ihrer Rückseite her für einen elektrischen Anschluß zugänglich.The connecting parts 21, 22a, 22b are formed so that the connection can be closed by mating or hooking the connecting parts and thus the lamp 1 can be suspended. It is advantageous, the connecting element 22a at the upper edge of the housing 2, z. B. at the upper longitudinal edge, to arrange, so that the lamp 1 connected either in a pivoted-off position with the connecting part 21, in particular hung, can be or in another position, for. B. in its mounted position, connected and swung. In the pivoted-off position, the back 25 of the lamp 1 with the ceiling or the wall closes an angle W, which is so large that the lamp 1 is accessible from its back 25 for their electrical connection and the wires one on the ceiling or wall existing power line 20 with associated electrical connection parts 26 are connectable. In the embodiment, the electrical connection parts 26 are accessible through a recess 27 in the profile body 6. In this case, the electrical connection parts are in the region of the recess 27 in the profile body 6 or below the plane of the base portion 6d. The electrical connection parts 26 may be formed by plug-in contact elements, so that the wires of the power line 20 can be inserted easy to handle to the electrical connection close. Associated resources such as a ballast can also be arranged in the profile body 6 below the base portion 6d or at another suitable location. It is also possible to arrange the above-described operating means including the electrical connection parts 26 in the channel 6c. In all these cases, the lamp 1 is accessible from its back for an electrical connection.

Zur Fixierung der Leuchte 1 in ihrer an der Decke bzw. Wand gehaltenen Anbaustellung ist eine vorzugsweise durch eine Verrastungsvorrichtung gebildete gegenüberliegende Verbindungsvorrichtung 31 vorgesehen, die vorzugsweise beim Hochschwenken der Leuchte 1 selbsttätig geschlossen wird, hier selbsttätig verrastet. Auch diese Verbindungsvorrichtung 31 kann durch eine Verrastungsnase gebildet sein, die beim Hochschwenken selbsttätig ausweicht und in der Einbaustellung hinter eine Verrastungskante einschnappt.To fix the lamp 1 in its mounted on the ceiling or wall mounting position preferably formed by a latching device opposite connecting device 31 is provided which is preferably closed automatically when pivoting the lamp 1, here automatically locked. This connecting device 31 may also be formed by a Verrastungsnase, which automatically dodges when swiveling and snaps in the installed position behind a Verrastungskante.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel ist ein U-förmiges Winkelelement 17 vorgesehen, das bezüglich der Längsmittelbene E1 spiegelbildlich ausgebildet ist und mit in der Leuchte spiegelbildlich ausgebildeten ersten und zweiten korrespondierenden Verbindungsteilen 22a, 22b zusammenwirkt. Hierdurch ist die Leuchte 1 sowohl von der einen als auch von der anderen Seite handhabungsfreundlich montierbar und bei seiner Montage von der ersten Montagestufe, in der die Verbindungsteile 21, 22a in Verbindung stehen, in die zweite Montagestufe bewegbar, in der das Verbindungsteil 21 mit dem Verbindungsteil 22b in Verbindung steht und die Leuchte 1 sich in ihrer Anbaustellung befindet.In the exemplary embodiment, a U-shaped angle element 17 is provided, which is mirror-inverted with respect to the longitudinal center plane E1 and cooperates with in the luminaire mirror-image formed first and second corresponding connecting parts 22a, 22b. As a result, the lamp 1 is easy to handle both from one side and from the other side mountable and in its assembly from the first mounting stage, in which the connecting parts 21, 22 a are in connection, movable into the second mounting stage, in which the connecting part 21 with the Connecting part 22b is in communication and the lamp 1 is in its mounted position.

Im Rahmen der Erfindung ist es auch möglich, das Verbindungsteil 21 bzw. den Hakenschenkel 21a direkt am Basisschenkel 17a anzuordnen. In einer solchen ersten Verbindung bzw. Einhängung kann die Leuchte ebenfalls den gewünschten Winkel W und Freiraum zwischen sich und der Wand bzw. Decke bilden und mit der gegenüberliegenden Verbindungsvorrichtung 31 fixiert sein.In the context of the invention, it is also possible to arrange the connecting part 21 or the hook leg 21a directly on the base leg 17a. In such a first connection or suspension, the lamp can also form the desired angle W and clearance between itself and the wall or ceiling and be fixed to the opposite connection device 31.

Die bezüglich der vertikalen Längsmittelebene auf einer Seite oder auf beiden Seiten angeordneten Verbindungsteile 21 bzw. 22a, 22b sind vorzugsweise an den Stirnteilen, hier an dem wenigstens einen Endteil 7 und dem wenigstens einen Stirnzwischenteil 8, angeordnet. Die Befestigungselemente sind Teile des Gehäuses 2 bzw. der Leuchtenwanne.The connection parts 21 and 22a, 22b arranged on one side or on both sides with respect to the vertical longitudinal center plane are preferably arranged on the end parts, here on the at least one end part 7 and the at least one intermediate end part 8. The fasteners are parts of the housing 2 and the lamp tray.

Bezüglich der ersten und zweiten korrespondierenden Verbindungsteile 22a, 22b sind die insbesondere identischen Endteile 7 und die Stirnzwischenteile 8 im wesentlichen gleich ausgebildet, was Fig. 4 und 8 bzw. 9 erkennen lassen. Die ersten und zweiten korrespondierenden Verbindungsteile 22a, 22b sind durch mit der Innenseite der Stirnwand 7a oder der jeweiligen Basiswand 8a verbundene und von dieser abstehende Bauteile gebildet. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel ist zu beiden Seiten der Längsmittelebene E1 ein Z-förmiger Wandvorsprung 35 angeordnet, in dessen oberem Wandabschnitt jeweils eine Einhängeöffnung 36 für die zugehörigen Hakenschenkel 21a angeordnet ist. Das zweite korrespondierende Verbindungsteil 22a ist durch die zugehörige Ecke 37 zwischen dem sich jeweils schräg nach außen und unten erstreckenden und somit Einführungsflächen bildenden mittleren Wandabschnitt und dem sich von der Ecke 37 nach innen erstreckenden unteren Wandabschnitt des Wandvorsprungs 35 gebildet ist. Längs der Mittelachse 2a gesehen, bilden die außen neben den ersten korrespondierenden Verbindungsteilen 22a vorhandenen Freiräume Einstecköffnungen 39 für die Verbindungsteile 21 bzw. die Hakenschenkel 21a. Unterhalb dieser Einstecköffnungen 39 befinden sich in den Seitenwandabschnitten 7e, 7e1 und in dem Basisabschnitt 6d weitere Einstecköffnungen 41, 41a für die Verbindungsteile 21, durch die die Verbindungsteile 21 zu den zweiten korrespondierenden Verbindungsteilen 22b gelangen, wenn die Verbindungs- bzw. Befestigungsteile gegeneinander bewegt werden.With regard to the first and second corresponding connecting parts 22a, 22b, the in particular identical end parts 7 and the intermediate end parts 8 are substantially identically formed, which can be seen Fig. 4 and 8 and 9, respectively. The first and second corresponding connection parts 22a, 22b are formed by components connected to the inside of the end wall 7a or the respective base wall 8a and protruding therefrom. In the exemplary embodiment, a Z-shaped wall projection 35 is arranged on both sides of the longitudinal center plane E1, in the upper wall portion of each of which a suspension opening 36 for the associated hook legs 21a is arranged. The second corresponding connection part 22a is formed by the associated corner 37 between the respective middle wall portion extending obliquely outwards and downwards and thus forming guide surfaces, and the lower wall portion of the wall projection 35 extending inwardly from the corner 37. Seen along the central axis 2a, the free spaces present outside the first corresponding connecting parts 22a form insertion openings 39 for the connecting parts 21 and the hook legs 21a. Below these insertion openings 39 are located in the side wall portions 7e, 7e1 and in the base portion 6d further insertion openings 41, 41a for the connecting parts 21, through which the connecting parts 21 to the second corresponding connecting parts 22b, when the connecting or fastening parts are moved against each other ,

Für eine Montage einer Einzelleuchte oder eines Lichtbandes werden die Winkelelemente 17 in einem axialen Mittelabstand d voneinander an der Wand oder Decke vormontiert, der bei einer Einzelleuchte der Länge des Profilkörpers 6 und beim einem Lichtband der Länge des Profilkörpers 6 zuzüglich der axialen Breite von zwei Randstegen 8a2 entspricht. Nach der Montage kann die betreffende Leuchte 1, die bezüglich ihrer elektrischen Betriebsteile wie Vorschaltgerät und elektrische Verbindungsteile 26 vormontiert ist, im vorbeschriebenen Sinne in die erste Montagestufe gemäß Fig. 1 bzw. Fig. 12 verbunden bzw. eingehängt werden. Danach wird die Leuchte 1 in eine horizontale Montagezwischenstellung geschwenkt und dann in ihre zweite Montagestufe bzw. Anbaustellung bewegt, wobei die Verbindungs- bzw. Befestigungselemente aufeinander zu bewegt werden und verrasten. Die Ausgestaltung kann so getroffen sein, daß es nicht möglich ist, nach einem Lösen der Verrastung die Leuchte aus Sicherheitsgründen in ihre erste Montagestufe zurückzubewegen.For mounting a single luminaire or a light band, the angle elements 17 are preassembled at an axial center distance d from each other on the wall or ceiling, the case of a single luminaire of the length of the profile body 6 and a light band of the length of the profile body 6 plus the axial width of two edge webs 8a2 corresponds. After assembly, the relevant lamp 1, which is preassembled with respect to their electrical operating parts such as ballast and electrical connection parts 26, in the above sense in the first assembly stage shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 12 are connected or mounted. Thereafter, the lamp 1 is pivoted into a horizontal mounting intermediate position and then moved to its second mounting stage or mounting position, wherein the connecting or fastening elements are moved towards each other and lock. The design can be made such that it is not possible to move back after loosening the latch, the light for safety in their first assembly stage.

Der Montagevorgang sieht daher wie folgt aus: Bohren der Befestigungslöcher für die Winkelelemente 17, Montieren der Winkelelemente 17, komplette Leuchte 1 seitlich abgehängt aufhängen, elektrischen Anschluß herstellen und Leuchte 1 in die Anbaustellung bewegen. Ein elektrischer Anschluß der Leuchte 1 nach ihrer mechanischen Montage ist deshalb nicht mehr erforderlich.The assembly process therefore looks like this: drilling the mounting holes for the angle elements 17, mounting the angle 17 elements, complete lamp 1 hang suspended from the side, make electrical connection and lamp 1 in the Move cultivation position. An electrical connection of the lamp 1 after its mechanical assembly is therefore no longer necessary.

Es ist im übrigen vorteilhaft, die Leuchte 1 vor ihrer Montage an der Wand oder Decke, z.B. werkseitig, mit dem Leuchtmittel 4 zu bestücken und wenigstens den Reflektor 12 bzw. 15 oder die Abstrahlöffnung 3 mit einer lichtdurchlässigen Folie abzudecken und dadurch vor Verschmutzung zu schützen. Eine so ausgebildete Leuchte kann nach ihrer Montage und dem elektrischen Anschluß als Baustellenbeleuchtung verwendet werden. Wenn die Bauarbeiten abgeschlossen sind, braucht nur noch die Folie abgezogen zu werden.Moreover, it is advantageous for the luminaire 1 to be mounted on the wall or ceiling, e.g. factory, to equip with the light source 4 and cover at least the reflector 12 or 15 or the emission opening 3 with a translucent film and thereby protect against contamination. Such a trained light can be used after their installation and the electrical connection as construction site lighting. When the construction is done, all you have to do is remove the foil.

Aufgrund der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung kann die Montage der Leuchte einschließlich der Anschluß ans elektrische Versorgungsnetz von einer einzigen Person durchgeführt werden, ohne daß eine weitere Person die Leuchte halten muß, wie es bei bekannten Leuchten der Fall ist.Due to the inventive design, the assembly of the lamp including the connection to the electrical supply network can be performed by a single person, without another person must hold the lamp, as is the case with known lights.

Es ist im Rahmen der Erfindung möglich, die Endteile 7 oder Stirnzwischenteile 8 jeweils durch ein Winkelelement 17 zu befestigen, wie es bei einer Einzelleuchte der Fall ist. Bei einem Lichtband ist es zur Einsparung der erforderlichen Anzahl von Winkelelementen 17 vorteilhaft, jeweils zwei einander benachbarte Stirnzwischenteile 8 durch ein gemeinsames Winkelement 17 zu befestigen. Hierfür sind die Winkelelemente 17 durch einen Schlitz 30 gabelförmig geformt, wobei die Breite des Schlitzes 19 mit Bewegungsspiel an die Summe der Dicke der Basiswände 8a angepaßt ist, so daß die Basiswände 8a in den Schlitz 30 passen und vom Winkelelement 17 übergriffen werden können. Durch diese gabelförmige Ausbildung erhält das Winkelelement 17 vier Verbindungselemente 21 bzw. Federarme, von denen jeweils ein Paar, das quer einander gegenüber liegt, die Befestigung des zugehörigen Stirnzwischenteils 8 besorgt. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung ist es vorteilhaft, daß die beiden einander benachbarten Leuchten 1 unabhängig voneinander, z.B. nacheinander, bewegt und montiert werden können. Dabei bleibt die Befestigung der anderen Leuchte 1 unbeeinträchtigt. In den Basiswänden 8a sind etwa mit der Rinne 6c fluchtende Ausnehmungen 8c vorhanden, so daß darin eine Durchgangsverdrahtung verlegt werden kann.It is possible within the scope of the invention to fasten the end parts 7 or intermediate end parts 8 in each case by an angle element 17, as is the case with a single luminaire. In the case of a light band, in order to save the required number of angle elements 17, it is advantageous to fasten two mutually adjacent intermediate end parts 8 by a common angle element 17. For this purpose, the angle elements 17 are fork-shaped by a slot 30, wherein the width of the slot 19 is adapted to play with the sum of the thickness of the base walls 8a, so that the base walls 8a fit into the slot 30 and can be overlapped by the angle member 17. Due to this fork-shaped design, the angle element 17 receives four connecting elements 21 and spring arms, of which in each case a pair which is transverse to each other, the attachment of the associated intermediate end part 8 worried. In this embodiment, it is advantageous that the two mutually adjacent lights 1 independently of one another, e.g. successively, can be moved and mounted. The attachment of the other lamp 1 remains unaffected. In the base walls 8a, recesses 8c are provided, which are aligned approximately with the groove 6c, so that a through-wiring can be laid therein.

Zur Verwendung der Leuchte 1 für ein Lichtband ist es ferner vorteilhaft, an den einander zugewandten Seiten der Stirnzwischenteile 8 miteinander in Eingriff stehende Verbindungsteile anzuordnen. Hierzu eignen sich vorzugsweise formschlüssig ineinandergreifende Verbindungsteile 41, 42, von denen das eine Verbindungsteil 41 eine kopfartige Verbreiterung 41a, z.B. einen Steg, und das andere Verbindungsteil 42 eine entsprechend geformte Hinterschneidung 42a, z.B. eine Nut, aufweist. Hierdurch werden die einander benachbarten Leuchten 1 bzw. das Lichtband in der Längsrichtung stabilisiert.For use of the light 1 for a light band, it is also advantageous to arrange on the mutually facing sides of the intermediate end parts 8 mutually engaging connecting parts. Suitable for this purpose are preferably interlocking mating connecting parts 41, 42, of which the one connecting part 41 is a head-like widening 41 a, for example a web, and the other connecting part 42 has a correspondingly shaped undercut 42a, for example a groove. As a result, the adjacent lights 1 and the light band are stabilized in the longitudinal direction.

Bei der vorliegenden Ausgestaltung sind mehrere Ausführungsbeispiele für eine solche Formschlußverbindung dargestellt. Gemäß einem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel ist auf der Außenseite 43 der Stirnzwischenteile 8 bezüglich der Längsmittelebene E1 auf der einen Seite eine vertikale hinterschnittene Ausnehmung 42a und auf der anderen Seite im gleichen Abstand e von der Mitte ein Verbindungssteg mit einem verdickten Kopf 41a angeordnet, insbesondere einteilig angeformt, der mit geringem Bewegungsspiel in die Hinterschneidung 42a paßt. Die Hinterschneidung 42a und die Verbreiterung 41a sind bezüglich der Längsmittelebene E1 und/oder E2 spiegelbildlich jedoch konträr ausgebildet, wobei die Außenfläche 43a der einen Seite, in der sich die Hinterschneidung 42a befindet, bezüglich der Außenfläche 43b der anderen Seite, von der die Verbreiterung 41a vorsteht, axial um die axiale Abmessung der Hinterschneidung 42a und der Verbreiterung 41a versetzt ist, so daß beide Verbindungsteile in der gleichen Querebene, jedoch konträr zueinander, angeordnet sind. Die Stufenfläche 44 des Versatzes kann axial verlaufen oder ebenfalls parallel zur Längsrichtung der Hinterschneidung 42a und der Verbreiterung eine weitere Hinterschneidung aufweisen.In the present embodiment, several embodiments of such a positive connection are shown. According to a first embodiment, on the outer side 43 of the intermediate end parts 8 with respect to the longitudinal center plane E1 on one side a vertical undercut recess 42a and arranged on the other side at the same distance e from the center of a connecting web with a thickened head 41a, in particular integrally formed, which fits with little play in the undercut 42a. The undercut 42a and the widening 41a are mirror-inverted, however, with respect to the longitudinal center plane E1 and / or E2, the outer surface 43a of the one side, in which the undercut 42a is located, with respect to the outer surface 43b of the other side, from which the widening 41a projecting, axially offset by the axial dimension of the undercut 42a and the widening 41a, so that both connecting parts in the same transverse plane, but in opposite directions, are arranged. The step surface 44 of the offset may extend axially or also parallel to the longitudinal direction of the undercut 42a and the broadening have a further undercut.

Diese Ausgestaltung ermöglicht es, die Stirnzwischenteile 8 mit identischer Form auszubilden, soweit wenigstens ihre Außenseiten 43 betroffen sind. Es ist deshalb nur eine Art Stirnzwischenteil 8 erforderlich. Zwei zueinander gehörige Stirnzwischenteile 8 werden in zueinander um 180° verdrehten Stellungen angeordnet und montiert, wobei sie zueinander passen, siehe Fig. 10. Die Montage erfolgt in der Längsrichtung der vorzugsweise länglichen Hinterschneidung 42a bzw. der länglichen Verbreiterung 41a, die parallel zueinander verlaufen. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel ist diese Richtung rechtwinkelig zur Anbauseite 10 bzw. Rückseite 25 der Leuchte 1 angeordnet. Es können jedoch auch andere in der vorhandenen Querebene verlaufende Richtungen verwirklicht werden.This embodiment makes it possible to form the intermediate end parts 8 with identical shape, as far as at least their outer sides 43 are concerned. It is therefore only a kind of intermediate end part 8 required. Two mutually associated intermediate end parts 8 are arranged and mounted in mutually rotated by 180 ° positions, they fit together, see Fig. 10. The assembly takes place in the longitudinal direction of the preferably elongated undercut 42a and the elongated widening 41a, which extend parallel to each other. In the embodiment, this direction is perpendicular to the mounting side 10 and back 25 of the lamp 1 is arranged. However, other directions running in the existing transverse plane can also be realized.

Der bezüglich der Ebenen E1 und/oder E2 spiegelbildlich und konträr ausgebildete Längs-Versatz der Außenflächenteile 43a ermöglicht den Fortfall des Randstegs 8a2 bezüglich der Längsebene E2 jeweils auf einer Seite, wie es die Fig. 8 bis 10 zeigen. Auch hierbei können die Stirnzwischenteile 8 trotz des axialen Versatzes identisch ausgebildet werden, wobei in der aneinanderliegenden Stellung der Stirnzwischenteile 8 (in Fig. 10 angedeutet dargestellt), in der sie um 180° verdreht zueinander angeordnet sind, die Randstege 8a2 in der Querrichtung hintereinander angeordnet sind, so daß nur eine Breite der Randstege 8a2 axial zur Geltung kommt.With respect to the planes E1 and / or E2 mirror-inverted and contrarily formed longitudinal offset of the outer surface portions 43a allows the elimination of the edge web 8a2 with respect to the longitudinal plane E2 each on one side, as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10 show. Here, too, the intermediate end parts 8 can be formed identically despite the axial offset, wherein in the adjacent position of the intermediate forehead parts 8 (shown in Fig. 10 shown) in which they are rotated by 180 ° are arranged to each other, the edge webs 8a2 are arranged in the transverse direction one behind the other, so that only one width of the edge webs 8a2 comes to the fore axially.

Die angestrebte Stabilisierung läßt sich auch dann erreichen, wenn wenigstens ein Verbindungsteil 42 positiver Form an dem einen Stirnzwischenteil 8 und ein Verbindungsteil entsprechend negativer Form an dem anderen Stirnzwischenteil 8 angeordnet ist. Bei einer solchen Ausgestaltung bedarf es jedoch zweier Stirnzwischenteile 8 mit unterschiedlicher Form.The desired stabilization can also be achieved if at least one connecting part 42 of positive shape is arranged on the one end intermediate part 8 and a connecting part of corresponding negative shape on the other end intermediate part 8. In such an embodiment, however, it requires two intermediate end parts 8 with different shape.

Bei einer Ausgestaltung mit Verbindungsteilen 41, 42 ist die Anordnung der deckenseitigen und leuchtenseitigen Verbindungselemente 17, 21, 22a, 22b so ausgebildet, daß beim im wesentlichen geradlinigen Bewegen der Leuchte 1 aus der Montagezwischenstufe in die zweite Montagestufe die Verbindungsteile 41, 42 in Verbindung gebracht und in ihre Verbindungsstellung bewegt werden.In an embodiment with connecting parts 41, 42, the arrangement of the ceiling-side and light-side connecting elements 17, 21, 22a, 22b is formed so that the connection parts 41, 42 brought in the substantially rectilinear movement of the lamp 1 from the intermediate assembly stage in the second assembly stage and moved into their connection position.

Die Ausgestaltungen der Leuchten 1 mit einem gemeinsamen deckenseitigen Verbindungselement 17 und die Ausgestaltungen mit Verbindungselementen 41, 42 eignen sich sowohl für eine Anbauleuchte bzw. -lichtband als auch für eine abgehängte Leuchte bzw. Lichtband bzw. Pendelleuchte.The embodiments of the luminaires 1 with a common cover-side connecting element 17 and the embodiments with connecting elements 41, 42 are suitable both for a surface-mounted luminaire or -lichtband and for a suspended luminaire or light strip or pendant light.

Mit den Bezugszahlen 45,45a sind oberhalb der Lampe 4 angeordnete Lichtblenden bezeichnet.Reference numbers 45, 45a designate light apertures arranged above the lamp 4.
