  • this adapter has a very voluminous central Housing part for receiving the ballast and ignition arrangement, which none Installation in correspondingly narrow luminaires allowed.
  • An adapter is known from German published patent application DE 198 22 460.5, which essentially has the structure described in the introduction.
  • the adapter is used to lock the ring-shaped fluorescent lamp a snap device in the form of two hook-shaped extensions the narrow side walls of the case on which the fluorescent lamp rests and an extension of the base plate in the form of a resilient tongue that the fluorescent lamp from the the hook-shaped Extensions on the opposite side partially embraced and against presses these hook-shaped extensions.
  • This lock has the disadvantage that in the case of a production of the housing and in particular the resilient tongue made of plastic this tongue through the light, especially the fluorescent lamp itself, its spring action over time loses and can break when the lamp is replaced.
  • the holding properties deteriorate and possibly lead to destruction of the adapter when replacing the lamp.
  • the adapter should be easy and quick to assemble with the Enable fluorescent lamp.
  • the adapter should also have a fixed one Allow the lamp to sit in the adapter regardless of the burning position of the lamp.
  • the adapter with an integrated ballast and ignition arrangement for circular fluorescent lamps with pin base for connection to conventional incandescent lamp holders, the adapter being a housing for Includes this integrated ballast and ignition arrangement and on this housing a concentric formation with a screw or Bayonet base is attached, the housing is essentially cuboid Has shape and essentially within that of the annular Fluorescent lamp enclosed space and at both ends of the housing a bracket is attached, which the pin base Fluorescent lamp or the discharge vessel of the fluorescent lamp partially embraced, the first bracket additionally a socket for receiving and electrical contacting of the pin base, solved in that the second bracket a sliding device for Has locking of the annular fluorescent lamp.
  • the sliding device is permanent and also against vibrations secure attachment of the lamp in the adapter that reaches the Lamp both in the hanging burning position with the adapter base facing upwards as well as in the standing burning position with downwards Adapter base and in the vertical burning position with the side facing Holds the adapter base securely.
  • due to the lack of spring effects in the case of the plastic holder for the lamp a possible breakage of a resilient holding part excluded due to material fatigue.
  • the ballast and ignition arrangement is advantageously mounted on a circuit board. By attaching the terminal contacts of the pin base one electrically connected to this ballast and ignition assembly board Circuit board or - even more advantageously - directly on this ballast and ignition arrangement board will further simplify the manufacture of the Adapter reached.
  • the housing of the adapter is optimal from a lower part, an upper part and put together a sliding part.
