Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die Erfindung betrifft eine PAR-Lampenanordnung mit einer Einbaulampe, insbesondere einer Halogeneinbaulampe, die in einen Sockel eingesetzt und zumindest abschnittsweise von einem Reflektor umgeben ist, wobei der Sockel und die,Einbaulampe über Kontaktfedern verbunden sind und der Reflektor von einer Streuscheibe abgedeckt ist. Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin eine Sockelanordnung, insbesondere für eine PAR-Lampenanordnung.The invention relates to a PAR lamp assembly with a built-in lamp, in particular a halogen built-in lamp, which is inserted into a socket and at least partially surrounded by a reflector, wherein the base and the integral lamp are connected via contact springs and the reflector is covered by a lens. The invention further relates to a socket arrangement, in particular for a PAR lamp arrangement.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

PAR (Parabolic Aluminized Reflector)-Lampen werden aufgrund ihrer kompakten Bauweise und kostengünstigen Herstellung in der allgemeinen sowie der professionellen Lichttechnik, bspw. in der Diskothekenbeleuchtung oder für Architekturlichtanwendungen in großen Stückzahlen eingesetzt.PAR (Parabolic Aluminized Reflector) lamps are used in large numbers due to their compact design and cost-effective production in the general and professional lighting technology, for example in the discotheque lighting or for architectural lighting applications.

Derartige, beispielsweise aus der US 6 053 623 , EP 0 584 071 B1 und der EP 0 550 934 B1 bekannte PAR-Lampen haben einen aus gepresstem Glas hergestellten und mit Aluminium beschichteten Reflektorkörper mit einer darin eingesetzten Lichtquelle. Der Reflektorkörper ist typischerweise als konkaves Paraboloid ausgebildet, wobei die Lichtquelle vorzugsweise im Fokus des Reflektors angeordnet und von einer Abdeckscheibe verschlossen wird. Als Lichtquelle finden aufgrund ihrer guten Lichtqualität und langen Lebensdauer zunehmend Halogenglühlampen (Halogenbrenner) mit oder ohne Hüllkolben Verwendung. Die an dem Reflektorkörper angebrachte Abdeckscheibe kann zur Beeinflussung der optischen Eigenschaften glatt oder mit einer Oberflächenstruktur, bspw. facettiert ausgeführt sein und dient weiterhin als Sicherheitseinrichtung im Fall eines platzenden Halogenbrenners.Such, for example from the US 6 053 623 . EP 0 584 071 B1 and the EP 0 550 934 B1 known PAR lamps have a reflector body made of pressed glass and coated with aluminum reflector body with a light source inserted therein. The reflector body is typically formed as a concave paraboloid, wherein the light source is preferably arranged in the focus of the reflector and closed by a cover. Due to their good light quality and long service life, halogen incandescent lamps (halogen torches) with or without enveloping bulbs are increasingly being used as the light source. The attached to the reflector body cover can smooth or to influence the optical properties with a Surface structure, for example, be performed faceted and also serves as a safety device in the case of a bursting halogen burner.

Nachteilig bei der vorbeschriebenen Lösung ist, dass derartige PAR-Lampen ein hohes Gewicht aufweisen und aufgrund ihrer aufwändigen Konstruktion und Fertigung in der Herstellung sehr teuer sind.A disadvantage of the above-described solution is that such PAR lamps have a high weight and are very expensive due to their complex design and manufacturing in the production.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine PAR-Lampenanordnung mit einer Einbaulampe, insbesondere einer Halogeneinbaulampe zu schaffen, die ein verringertes Gewicht bei vereinfachtem Fertigungsprozess aufweist.The invention has for its object to provide a PAR lamp assembly with a built-in lamp, in particular a halogen built-in lamp, which has a reduced weight in a simplified manufacturing process.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine PAR-Lampenanordnung mit der Merkmalskombination des Anspruchs 1 und durch eine Sockelanordnung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 15 gelöst. Besonders vorteilhafte Ausführungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben.This object is achieved by a PAR lamp assembly with the combination of features of claim 1 and by a base assembly having the features of claim 15. Particularly advantageous embodiments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

Der Reflektor besteht aus Aluminium und ist mit einer reflektierenden Oberfläche oder Beschichtung versehen. Durch den verwendeten, im Verhältnis zu einem herkömmlichen Glasreflektor leichteren Aluminiumreflektor, wird ein verringertes Gewicht der PAR-Lampenanordnung bei vereinfachtem Fertigungsprozess erreicht.The PAR lamp arrangement according to the invention has a built-in lamp, in particular a halogen built-in lamp, which is inserted in a socket and at least partially surrounded by a reflector, wherein the base and the integral lamp are connected via contact springs and the reflector is covered by a lens. The reflector is made of aluminum and is provided with a reflective surface or coating. By using the aluminum reflector, which is lighter in relation to a conventional glass reflector, a reduced weight of the PAR lamp assembly is achieved with a simplified manufacturing process.

Der Reflektor wird vorzugsweise durch Umformen, insbesondere durch Umbördeln eines Umfangsabschnittes einer Umfangswand des Reflektors mit der Streuscheibe verbunden, wobei der von Reflektor und Streuscheibe begrenzte Raum im Unterschied zu den bekannten Lösungen mit Luft gefüllt ist.The reflector is preferably connected by forming, in particular by crimping a peripheral portion of a peripheral wall of the reflector with the lens, wherein the limited space of the reflector and diffuser is filled in contrast to the known solutions with air.

Eine Sockelanordnung, für eine erfindungsgemäße PAR-Lampenanordnung weist einen Sockel auf, in den eine Kontaktfederanordnung eingeschnappt ist.A base assembly for a PAR lamp assembly according to the invention has a base into which a contact spring assembly is snapped.

Sockel und Einbaulampe sind über die Kontaktfederanordnung verbunden. Diese übernimmt sowohl die elektrische Kontaktierung als auch die mechanische Fixierung der Einbaulampe im Reflektor, so dass auf gesonderte Stromzuführungen verzichtet werden kann. Die Aufnahme der Einbaulampe über Kontaktfedern ermöglicht eine Variation der Einbaulage der Einbaulampe im Reflektor und damit eine Anpassung an verschiedene Ausführungen von Einbaulampen, bspw. an andere Quetschungs- oder Kontaktstiftlängen. Weiterhin wird durch die Aufnahme der Einbaulampe über Kontaktfedern, eine verbesserte Halterung der Einbaulampe bei verringertem Herstellungsaufwand ermöglicht.Base and built-in lamp are connected via the contact spring arrangement. This takes over both the electrical contact and the mechanical fixation of the built-in lamp in the reflector, so that can be dispensed with separate power supply. The inclusion of the built-in lamp via contact springs allows a variation of the mounting position of the built-in lamp in the reflector and thus an adaptation to different versions of built-in lamps, eg. At other crushing or contact pin lengths. Furthermore, it is possible by receiving the built-in lamp via contact springs, an improved mounting of the recessed lamp with reduced manufacturing costs.

Vorzugsweise bildet die Kontaktfederanordnung lampenseitig einen Klemmbereich zum Umgreifen einer Quetschung der Einbaulampe aus.The contact spring arrangement preferably forms on the lamp side a clamping region for encompassing a pinch of the integral lamp.

Die Halterung der Einbaulampe lässt sich vorteilhafterweise über zumindest zwei im Klemmbereich ausgebildete noppenartige Vorsprünge, die in Anlage an zwei Seitenflächen der Quetschung bringbar sind, weiter verbessern.The holder of the built-in lamp can be advantageously via at least two formed in the clamping area knob-like projections, which can be brought into contact with two side surfaces of the pinch, continue to improve.

Um die Eintauchtiefe der Einbaulampe in die Kontaktfederanordnung zu begrenzen, weist diese zumindest einen schlitzförmigen Einführabschnitt auf, in den zumindest eine Nocke der Quetschung der Einbaulampe einführbar und dort festlegbar ist.In order to limit the depth of immersion of the recessed lamp in the contact spring arrangement, this has at least one slot-shaped insertion section into which at least one cam of the pinch of the recessed lamp is insertable and fixable there.

Der Einführabschnitt wird vorteilhafterweise lampenseitig von Eckbereichen begrenzt, die die Nocke der Quetschung hintergreifen und die Einbaulampe in der Kontaktfederanordnung halten.The insertion section is advantageously limited on the lamp side by corner regions which engage behind the cam of the pinch and hold the integral lamp in the contact spring arrangement.

Um das Einführen der Quetschung zu erleichtern, sind die Eckbereiche bei einem Ausführungsbeispiel lampenseitig zumindest abschnittsweise nach außen gebogen.In order to facilitate the insertion of the pinch, the corner regions are bent in an embodiment on the lamp side at least partially outward.

Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist die Kontaktfederanordnung zumindest zwei Kontaktfedern zum elektrischen Kontaktieren der Einbaulampe auf. Vorzugsweise sind die Kontaktfedern baugleich ausgeführt, wobei sich der Herstellungsaufwand der PAR-Lampenanordnung weiter verringert. Durch die elektrisch leitenden Kontaktfedern, kann auf zusätzliche elektrische Anschlüsse der Einbaulampe verzichtet werden.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the contact spring arrangement has at least two contact springs for electrically contacting the built-in lamp. Preferably, the contact springs are designed to be identical, whereby the production cost of the PAR lamp assembly is further reduced. Due to the electrically conductive contact springs, can be dispensed with additional electrical connections of the recessed lamp.

Die Kontaktfedern bilden vorzugsweise jeweils zumindest eine Federlasche aus, die zur Verbindung mit dem Sockel herausgebogen ist. Der Sockel und die Kontaktfedern sind dabei derart gestaltet, dass sie ineinander steckbar und dadurch miteinander verbindbar sind.The contact springs preferably each form at least one spring tab, which is bent out for connection to the base. The base and the contact springs are designed such that they are plugged into each other and thereby connectable.

Als besonders vorteilhaft hat es sich erwiesen, die Kontaktfedern als Blechstanzbiegeteile auszuführen, die zumindest abschnittsweise einen etwa klammerförmigen Querschnitt aufweisen.It has proved to be particularly advantageous to design the contact springs as sheet-metal stamped bent parts which, at least in sections, have an approximately clamp-shaped cross-section.

Gemäß einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel weist die Einbaulampe zwei Kontaktstifte auf, die an der Unterseite der Quetschung austreten und jeweils mit einer Stromzuführung mit integrierter elektrischer Sicherung versehen sind, wobei die Stromzuführungen in Richtung von zwei planparallelen Flächen der Quetschung zurückgeführt werden. Durch die etwa U-förmig in Richtung der Einbaulampe zurückgebogenen Stromzuführung, wird eine geringe Bauhöhe der in die Kontaktfederanordnung eingesetzten Einbaulampe erreicht.According to a preferred embodiment, the integral lamp has two contact pins which emerge at the bottom of the pinch and are each provided with a power supply with integrated electrical fuse, wherein the power supply lines are returned in the direction of two plane-parallel surfaces of the pinch. Due to the approximately U-shaped bent back in the direction of the recessed lamp power supply, a small height of the built-in lamp used in the contact spring assembly is achieved.

Vorzugsweise sind die Stromzuführungen mit Kontaktfahnen der Kontaktfedern elektrisch verbunden, insbesondere verschweißt oder verlötet.Preferably, the power supply lines are electrically connected to contact lugs of the contact springs, in particular welded or soldered.

Zur Aufnahme der Stromzuführungen einer in den Sockel einsetzbaren Einbaulampe, weist der Sockel vorzugsweise zumindest eine Ausnehmung auf.For accommodating the power supply lines of a built-in lamp which can be inserted into the base, the base preferably has at least one recess.

Bevorzugte Ausführungen der ErfindungPreferred embodiments of the invention

Anhand der Figuren 1 bis 11 wird zunächst ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen PAR-Lampenanordnung erläutert, bei dem die Einbaulampe als Halogenglühlampe (Halogenbrenner) in Quetschnoppentechnik ausgeführt ist.Based on FIGS. 1 to 11 An exemplary embodiment of a PAR lamp arrangement according to the invention is first explained, in which the integral lamp is designed as a halogen incandescent lamp (halogen burner) in Quetschoppentechnik.

Figur 1 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße PAR-Lampenanordnung 1 mit einer Einbaulampe 2, die in eine Sockelanordnung 4 eingesetzt und von einem Reflektor 6 umgeben ist. Der Reflektor 6 besteht aus Aluminium und ist auf seiner Innenseite, beispielsweise durch Hochglanzeloxierung, mit einer reflektierenden Beschichtung 8 aus hochreinem Aluminium (bspw. Reinheitsgrad 99,98) versehen. Die Sockelanordnung 4 hat einen Keramiksockel 10, der erfindungsgemäß über Kontaktfedern 12, 14, deren Endabschnitte 13 nach unten aus der Sockelanordnung 4 vorstehen, mit der Einbaulampe 2 verbunden ist. Durch den im Verhältnis zu einem konventionellen Glasreflektor leichteren Aluminiumreflektor 6 und die Aufnahme der Einbaulampe 2 über Kontaktfedern 12, 14, wird eine verbesserte Halterung der Einbaulampe 2 bei verringertem Gewicht und Herstellungsaufwand ermöglicht. Eine Reflektoröffnung 15 des Reflektors 6 ist mit einer lichtdurchlässigen Streuscheibe 16 verbunden und von dieser abgedeckt. Dies wird im Folgenden noch näher erläutert. FIG. 1 shows a PAR lamp assembly 1 according to the invention with a built-in lamp 2, which is inserted into a base assembly 4 and surrounded by a reflector 6. The reflector 6 is made of aluminum and is provided on its inside, for example by high-gloss anodization, with a reflective coating 8 of high-purity aluminum (eg, purity 99.98). The base assembly 4 has a ceramic base 10, which according to the invention via contact springs 12, 14, whose end portions 13 project downwardly from the base assembly 4, is connected to the built-in lamp 2. By relative to a conventional glass reflector lighter aluminum reflector 6 and the inclusion of the built-in lamp 2 via contact springs 12, 14, an improved mounting of the built-in lamp 2 is possible with reduced weight and manufacturing cost. A reflector opening 15 of the reflector 6 is connected to a light-transmitting lens 16 and covered by this. This will be explained in more detail below.

Gemäß Figur 2 hat der Reflektor 6 einen etwa parabelförmigen Querschnitt 18, der sockelseitig in einen zylindermantelförmigen Reflektorhals 20 zur Aufnahme eines zylindrischen Haltebereichs 22 des Keramiksockels 10 übergeht und mit diesem durch Vercrimpen verbindbar ist (siehe Figur 1). Der Reflektor 6 geht lichtaustrittsseitig in einen zylinderförmigen Aufnahmeabschnitt 24 mit vergrößertem Durchmesser über und bildet eine Umfangswand 26 zur Aufnahme der Streuscheibe 16 in der Reflektoröffnung 15 aus.According to FIG. 2 the reflector 6 has an approximately parabolic cross-section 18, the base side passes into a cylindrical jacket-shaped reflector neck 20 for receiving a cylindrical holding portion 22 of the ceramic base 10 and is connected thereto by crimping (see FIG. 1 ). The reflector 6 is light exit side in a cylindrical Receiving portion 24 with an enlarged diameter and forms a peripheral wall 26 for receiving the lens 16 in the reflector opening 15 from.

Wie insbesondere der in Figur 3 gezeigten Draufsicht auf den Reflektor 6 entnehmbar ist, bildet der Aufnahmeabschnitt 24 eine ringförmige Auflagefläche 28 für die Streuscheibe 16 aus, d.h. die Streuscheibe 16 wird in der Umfangswand 26 aufgenommen und mit der Auflagefläche 28 in Anlage gebracht. Durch Umbördeln eines überstehenden Umfangsabschnittes 30 der Umfangswand 26, wird die Streuscheibe 16, wie in Figur 1 dargestellt, mit dem Reflektor 6 verbunden. Hierzu ist an der in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sphärisch geformten Streuscheibe 16 gemäß Figur 4 und Figur 5 ein tellerförmiger Flansch 32 vorgesehen, d.h. der umgebördelte Umfangsabschnitt 30 der Umfangswand 26 liegt auf einer Ringfläche 34 des Flansches 32 auf und fixiert die Streuscheibe 16 auf dem Reflektor 6. Aufgrund der Verwendung einer Einbaulampe 2, kann auf ein Evakuieren und Versiegeln des von Reflektor 6 und Streuscheibe 16 begrenzten, mit Luft gefüllten Raumes 36 (siehe Figur 1) im Unterschied zu den bekannten Lösungen verzichtet werden. Die verwendeten Streuscheiben 16 können jede aus dem allgemeinen Stand der Technik bekannte Form aufweisen und je nach Anwendungsfall und gewünschtem Raumwinkel, beispielsweise stumpfwinklig für Flächenbestrahlung (Typ FL, Flood) oder spitzwinklig für Punktbestrahlung (Typ SP, Spot) etc. glatt oder mit einer Facettierung ausgeführt sein. Alternativ zu der Einstellung des Raumwinkels (Ausstrahlwinkels) über die Streuscheibe 16, könnte diese über eine Facettierung des Reflektors erfolgen und auf eine Streuscheibe verzichtet werden.As in particular the in FIG. 3 shown top view of the reflector 6 is removed, the receiving portion 24 forms an annular support surface 28 for the lens 16, ie the lens 16 is received in the peripheral wall 26 and brought into contact with the support surface 28. By crimping a projecting peripheral portion 30 of the peripheral wall 26, the lens 16, as in FIG. 1 shown connected to the reflector 6. For this purpose, according to the spherically shaped lens 16 in this embodiment FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 a plate-shaped flange 32 is provided, ie the flanged peripheral portion 30 of the peripheral wall 26 rests on an annular surface 34 of the flange 32 and fixes the lens 16 on the reflector 6. Due to the use of a built-in lamp 2, can evacuate and seal the reflector of the sixth and diffuser 16 limited, with air-filled space 36 (see FIG. 1 ) are dispensed with in contrast to the known solutions. The diffusing discs 16 used may have any shape known from the general state of the art and depending on the application and desired solid angle, for example obtuse for surface irradiation (type FL, Flood) or acute angle for spot irradiation (type SP, spot) etc. smooth or with a faceting be executed. Alternatively to the adjustment of the solid angle (beam angle) on the lens 16, this could be done via a faceting of the reflector and dispenses with a lens.

Figur 6 zeigt eine dreidimensionale Darstellung der erfindungsgemäßen Sockelanordnung 4 mit eingesetzter Einbaulampe 2, wobei die zwei baugleichen, als Blechstanzbiegeteile ausgeführten, Kontaktfedern 12, 14 in den Keramiksockel 10 der Sockelanordnung 4 als Kontaktfederanordnung 37 eingeschnappt sind und sowohl die elektrische Kontaktierung als auch die mechanische Fixierung der Einbaulampe 2 im Reflektor 6 übernehmen. FIG. 6 shows a three-dimensional representation of the socket assembly 4 according to the invention with inserted lamp 2, wherein the two identical, designed as sheet metal stamped bending parts, contact springs 12, 14 are snapped into the ceramic base 10 of the socket assembly 4 as a contact spring assembly 37 and both the electrical contact and the mechanical fixation of the built-in lamp 2 in the reflector 6 take over.

Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Einbaulampe 2 als Halogenglühlampe (Halogenbrenner) in Quetschnoppentechnik ausgeführt.In the illustrated embodiment, the built-in lamp 2 is designed as a halogen incandescent lamp (halogen burner) in Quetschnoppentechnik.

Eine derartige Halogenglühlampe 2 besteht im Wesentlichen aus einer Wendel 38, die beispielsweise in vier Wendelabschnitten 40 aufgeteilt und mittels Noppentechnik in einem Kolben 42 lagefixiert ist. Dieser ist über eine einseitige Quetschung 44 abgedichtet, in der die beiden Endabschnitte der Wendel 38 über jeweils eine Molybdänfolie 46 mit aus der Quetschdichtung herausgeführten Kontaktstiften 48 verbunden sind. Die Quetschung 44 ist dabei derart ausgeführt, dass der mittlere Bereich mit planparallelen Flächen ausgebildet ist, die in Randabschnitte 54, 56 übergehen, die beidseitig, senkrecht über die beiden planparallelen Flächen hinaus vorstehen, so dass der Querschnitt (nicht dargestellt) der Quetschung 44 etwa doppel-T-förmig mit den erweiterten Randabschnitten 54, 56 und dem dazwischenliegenden, von den beiden planparallel verlaufenden Flächen begrenzten Bereich ausgebildet ist., Die beiden Kontaktstifte 48 sind jeweils mit einer Stromzuführung 58, 60 mit einer integrierten elektrischen Sicherung 62, 64 verschweißt, wobei die Stromzuführungen etwa U-förmig in Richtung der beiden planparallelen Flächen der Quetschung 44 zurückgeführt und mit Kontaktfahnen 66, 68 der Kontaktfedern 12, 14 verschweißt sind.Such a halogen incandescent lamp 2 consists essentially of a helix 38, which is divided, for example, into four helix sections 40 and fixed in position in a piston 42 by means of a notch technique. This is sealed by a unilateral pinch 44, in which the two end portions of the coil 38 are connected via a respective molybdenum foil 46 with led out of the pinch seal contact pins 48. The pinch 44 is designed such that the central region is formed with plane-parallel surfaces that pass into edge portions 54, 56 projecting on both sides, perpendicular to the two plane-parallel surfaces, so that the cross section (not shown) of the pinch 44 about The two contact pins 48 are each welded to a power supply 58, 60 with an integrated electrical fuse 62, 64, wherein the power supply lines are returned approximately U-shaped in the direction of the two plane-parallel surfaces of the pinch 44 and with contact lugs 66, 68 of the contact springs 12, 14 are welded.

Gemäß Figur 7 haben die, in die Sockelanordnung 4 eingesetzten Kontaktfedern 12, 14 eine etwa rechteckförmige Grundform, mit die Quetschung 44 der Einbaulampe 2 etwa U-förmig von außen umgreifenden Haltelaschen 70, 72, die lampenseitig gemeinsam einen Klemmbereich 74 ausbilden. Die Einbaulampe 2 wird über die etwa doppel-T-förmig ausgebildete Quetschung 44 in den Klemmbereich 74 eingeführt und dort über zumindest zwei im Klemmbereich 74 ausgebildete noppenartige Vorsprünge 76, 78, der beiden Kontaktfedern, die gemäß Figur 6, federnd in Anlage an zwei Seitenflächen der Quetschung 44 gebracht sind, gehalten. Zur Fixierung der Einbaulampe 2 in Radialrichtung sind im Klemmbereich 74 an jeder Haltelasche der Haltelaschen 70, 72 nach innen hin aufeinander zu gebogene Umfangsabschnitte 84, 86 derart ausgebildet, dass diese etwa senkrecht zu den beiden planparallelen Flächen der Quetschung 44 verlaufen. Die lichte Weite D zwischen den beiden Kanten der Umfangsabschnitte 84, 86 entspricht in etwa der Dicke der Quetschung 44, d. h., dem Abstand der beiden planparallelen Flächen, sodass die Umfangsabschnitte 84, 86 bei eingesetzter Einbaulampe 2 die beiden vorspringenden Randabschnitte 54, 56 der Quetschung 44 hintergreifen. Jede der Haltelaschen 70, 72 ist mit einer Ausnehmung 88 versehen und liegt nach dem Einsetzen der Einbaulampe 2 federnd an den beiden vorspringenden Randabschnitten 54, 56 der Quetschung 44 an, wobei die Quetschung 44 den Klemmbereich 74 diagonal durchsetzt und die Umfangsabschnitte 84, 86 auf jeweils zwei Innenflächen 90, 92 der Quetschung 44 aufliegen, so dass die Einbaulampe 2 in Radialrichtung lagefixiert ist. Die Kontaktfedern 12, 14 ermöglichen dabei eine Variation der Einbaulage in Längsrichtung des Reflektors 6 und damit eine Anpassung an die Abmessungen unterschiedlicher Einbaulampen 2, bspw. mit anderen Quetschungs- oder Kontaktstiftlängen.According to FIG. 7 have, used in the socket assembly 4 contact springs 12, 14 an approximately rectangular basic shape, with the pinch 44 of the built-in lamp 2 approximately U-shaped from outside embracing retaining tabs 70, 72, the lamp side together form a clamping region 74. The built-in lamp 2 is inserted via the approximately double-T-shaped pinch 44 in the clamping region 74 and there via at least two formed in the clamping portion 74 knob-like projections 76, 78, the two contact springs, according to FIG. 6 , resiliently brought into contact with two side surfaces of the pinch 44 held. For fixation of the built-in lamp 2 in the radial direction are in the clamping portion 74 on each retaining tab of the retaining tabs 70, 72 towards each other curved towards peripheral portions 84, 86 formed such that they are approximately perpendicular to the two plane-parallel surfaces of the pinch 44. The clear width D between the two edges of the peripheral portions 84, 86 corresponds approximately to the thickness of the pinch 44, ie, the distance between the two plane-parallel surfaces, so that the peripheral portions 84, 86 with inserted lamp 2, the two projecting edge portions 54, 56 of the pinch 44 behind. Each of the retaining tabs 70, 72 is provided with a recess 88 and is after insertion of the built-in lamp 2 resiliently to the two projecting edge portions 54, 56 of the pinch 44, wherein the pinch 44 passes through the clamping portion 74 diagonally and the peripheral portions 84, 86 rest on two inner surfaces 90, 92 of the pinch 44, so that the built-in lamp 2 is fixed in position in the radial direction. The contact springs 12, 14 allow a variation of the installation position in the longitudinal direction of the reflector 6 and thus an adaptation to the dimensions of different built-in lamps 2, for example. With other pinch or pin lengths.

Um die Eintauchtiefe der Einbaulampe 2 in die Kontaktfederanordnung 37 zu begrenzen, ist an den Kontaktfedern 12, 14 jeweils ein etwa schlitzförmiger Einführabschnitt 94, 96 ausgebildet, in den jeweils eine, an den beiden Seitenflächen der Quetschung 44 ausgebildete Nocke 98 (siehe Figur 6) der Einbaulampe 2 einführbar und dort festlegbar ist. Die Einführabschnitte 94, 96 werden lampenseitig von zwei in den Einführabschnitt auskragenden Eckbereichen 100, 102 begrenzt, die die Nocken 98 der Quetschung 44 im eingesetzten Zustand der Einbaulampe 2 hintergreifen und diese in der Kontaktfederanordnung 37 halten. Um das Einführen der Quetschung 44 und der Nocken 98 zu erleichtern, sind die Eckbereiche 100, 102 an lampenseitigen Abschnitten 104, 106 nach außen gebogen.In order to limit the immersion depth of the built-in lamp 2 in the contact spring assembly 37, an approximately slot-shaped insertion portion 94, 96 is formed on the contact springs 12, 14, in each of which, formed on the two side surfaces of the pinch 44 cam 98 (see FIG. 6 ) of the built-in lamp 2 can be inserted and fixed there. The insertion sections 94, 96 are delimited on the lamp side by two corner regions 100, 102 projecting into the insertion section, which engage behind the cams 98 of the pinch 44 in the inserted state of the integral lamp 2 and hold them in the contact spring arrangement 37. To facilitate the insertion of the pinch 44 and the cams 98, the corner portions 100, 102 are bent outward on lamp-side portions 104, 106.

Wie insbesondere Figur 8 entnehmbar ist, die eine Seitenansicht einer Kontaktfeder 12, 14 der Kontaktfederanordnung 37 zeigt, ist diese an dem Endabschnitt 13 um 180° in Richtung des etwa klammerförmigen Klemmbereichs 74 zurückgebogen und an einem Halteabschnitt 108, 114 zu einer Federlasche 116 herausgebogen. Die Federlaschen 116 sind derart gestaltet, dass sie in den Keramiksockel 10 steckbar sind und in diesem verrasten. Die Federlaschen 116 weisen eine geringere Breite B (siehe Figur 7) als ein Endabschnitt 13 der Kontaktfedern 12, 14 auf. In einem Bereich zwischen dem Klemmbereich 74 und der Federlasche 116 ist ein weiterer noppenartiger Vorsprung 118, 120 ausgebildet, der mit Montageausnehmungen 122, 124 des Keramiksockels 10, gemäß Figur 10, in Eingriff bringbar ist und die Kontaktfedern 12, 14 zusätzlich im Keramiksockel 10 fixiert. Um das Einführen der Kontaktfedern 12, 14 in einen nicht dargestellten Stecker sowie die Kontaktierung zu verbessern, sind diese an dem Endabschnitt 13 mit Fasen 110, 112 und mit einer Durchgangsbohrung 126 (siehe Figur 7) versehen.In particular FIG. 8 can be removed, which shows a side view of a contact spring 12, 14 of the contact spring assembly 37, this is bent back at the end portion 13 by 180 ° in the direction of approximately clip-shaped clamping portion 74 and bent out at a holding portion 108, 114 to a spring tab 116. The spring tabs 116 are designed such that they can be plugged into the ceramic base 10 and lock in this. The spring tabs 116 have a smaller width B (see FIG. 7 ) as an end portion 13 of the contact springs 12, 14. In a region between the clamping region 74 and the spring clip 116, a further knob-like projection 118, 120 is formed, which with mounting recesses 122, 124 of the ceramic base 10, according to FIG. 10 , is engageable and the contact springs 12, 14 additionally fixed in the ceramic base 10. In order to improve the insertion of the contact springs 12, 14 into a connector, not shown, as well as the contacting, these are at the end portion 13 with chamfers 110, 112 and with a through hole 126 (see FIG. 7 ) Mistake.

Gemäß Figur 9 hat der Keramiksockel 10 der erfindungsgemäßen Sockelanordnung 4 einen von zwei planparallelen Flächen 128, 130 begrenzten rundstirnigen Grundkörper 132, der in den etwa zylindrischen Haltebereich 22, mit im Verhältnis zu dem Abstand der planparallelen Flächen 128, 130 vergrößertem Durchmesser zur Aufnahme des Reflektorhalses 20 übergeht (siehe Figur 1). An dem Grundkörper 132 sind an beiden planparallelen Flächen 128, 130 Ausnehmungen 134, 136 ausgebildet, die sich in dem zylindrischen Haltebereich 22 in jeweils zwei Ausklinkungen 138, 140 fortsetzen, in die Abschnitte des Reflektorhalses 20 bei der Vercrimpung des Reflektors 6 mit der Sockelanordnung 4 eingreifen und eine formschlüssige Verbindung ausbilden (siehe Figur 10).According to FIG. 9 the ceramic base 10 of the socket arrangement 4 according to the invention has a round-ended basic body 132 delimited by two plane-parallel surfaces 128, 130, which merges into the approximately cylindrical holding region 22 with an enlarged diameter in relation to the spacing of the plane-parallel surfaces 128, 130 for receiving the reflector neck 20 ( please refer FIG. 1 ). On the base body 132, recesses 134, 136 are formed on both plane-parallel surfaces 128, 130, which continue in the cylindrical holding region 22 in two notches 138, 140, into the sections of the reflector neck 20 during the crimping of the reflector 6 with the base arrangement 4 engage and form a positive connection (see FIG. 10 ).

Figur 10 zeigt eine von unten gesehene Ansicht des Keramiksockels 10, wobei dieser zwei parallel verlaufende Montageausnehmungen 122, 124 zur Aufnahme der Kontaktfedern 12, 14 aufweist. Die Ausnehmungen 122, 124 verlaufen mit etwa T-förmigem Querschnitt diametral beabstandet entlang der Längsachse des Keramiksockels 10 und erstrecken sich, wie insbesondere aus Figur 11 ersichtlich ist, die den Schnitt A-A aus Figur 9 zeigt, bis etwa in den zylindrischen Haltebereich 22 des Sockels 10 und bilden im weiteren Verlauf schlitzförmige Abschnitte 144, 146 aus. Der etwa T-förmige Querschnitt der Montageausnehmungen 122, 124 dient zur Aufnahme, der an den Kontaktfedern 12, 14 ausgebildeten Federlaschen 116, d.h. die Federlaschen 116 schnappen in diesem Bereich in den Keramiksockel 10 ein und sichern die Kontaktfedern 12, 14 in der Montageausnehmung 122, 124. Vorzugsweise sind die Federlaschen 116 und die Montageausnehmungen 122, 124 derart dimensioniert, dass die Federlasche 116, die von dem T- und dem schlitzförmigem Abschnitt gebildeten Vorsprünge 148, 150 hintergreift. Zur Aufnahme von Stromzuführungen 58, 60 und Sicherungen 62, 64 der in den Sockel 10 einsetzbaren Einbaulampe 2 hat der Keramiksockel 10 eine sacklochförmige Ausnehmung 73, die sich entlang seiner Längsachse erstreckt. Dadurch wird eine geringe Bauhöhe der in die Kontaktfedern 12, 14 eingesetzten Einbaulampe 2 erreicht. FIG. 10 shows a view from below of the ceramic base 10, wherein this two parallel mounting recesses 122, 124 for receiving the contact springs 12, 14 has. The recesses 122, 124 extend with approximately T-shaped cross-section diametrically spaced along the longitudinal axis of the ceramic base 10 and extend, as in particular from FIG. 11 it can be seen that the cut AA FIG. 9 shows, until approximately in the cylindrical holding portion 22 of the base 10 and form in the course of slit-shaped portions 144, 146 from. The approximately T-shaped cross-section of the mounting recesses 122, 124 serves to receive the spring tabs 116 formed on the contact springs 12, 14, ie the spring tabs 116 snap into the ceramic base 10 in this area and secure the contact springs 12, 14 in the mounting recess 122 , 124. Preferably, the spring tabs 116 and the mounting recesses 122, 124 are dimensioned such that the spring tab 116 engages behind the projections 148, 150 formed by the T- and slot-shaped portions. For receiving power supply lines 58, 60 and fuses 62, 64 of insertable into the base 10 built-in lamp 2 of the ceramic base 10 has a blind hole-shaped recess 73 which extends along its longitudinal axis. As a result, a small overall height of the built-in lamp 2 used in the contact springs 12, 14 is achieved.

In den Figuren 12 bis 13 ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer PAR-Lampenanordnung dargestellt, bei dem die Einbaulampe 2 mit einem Balkengestell zur Halterung der Wendel ausgeführt ist.In the FIGS. 12 to 13 an embodiment of a PAR lamp assembly is shown, in which the built-in lamp 2 is designed with a beam frame for holding the coil.

Gemäß Figur 12, die eine dreidimensionale Ansicht einer erfindungsgemäßen Sockelanordnung 4 zeigt, ist die Einbaulampe 2 als Halogenglühlampe (Halogenbrenner) in Balkengestelltechnik ausgeführt. Eine derartige Halogenglühlampe 2 hat eine Wendel 152, die beispielsweise mit vier Wendelabschnitten 154 versehen und über ein Balkengestell 156, das zwei Wendelhalter 155 mit etwa U-förmigen Krümmungen 157 sowie ein hakenartiges Halteelement 159 aufweist, in einem Kolben 158 lagefixiert ist. Die zwei Wendelhalter 155 und das Halteelement 159 sind in ihrer Lage zueinander durch einen Querbalken 161 aus Quarzglas fixiert, wobei die beiden Wendelhalter 155 in einer Ebene liegen. Der Kolben 158 ist über eine, bereits in Figur 6 erläuterte, einseitige Quetschung 44 abgedichtet, in der die beiden Endabschnitte der Wendel 152 über Stromzuführungen und jeweils eine Molybdänfolie 46 mit aus der Quetschdichtung herausgeführten Kontaktstiften 48 verbunden sind. Die beiden Kontaktstifte 48 sind jeweils mit einer Stromzuführung 58, 60 mit einer integrierten elektrischen Sicherung verschweißt, wobei die Stromzuführungen etwa U-förmig in Richtung der Quetschung 44 zurückgeführt und mit an Kontaktfedern 160, 162 angeordneten Kontaktfahnen 164, 166 verschweißt sind. Die Sockelanordnung 4 hat einen Keramiksockel 168, der sich von dem bereits in den Figuren 9 bis 11 erläuterten Keramiksockel lediglich durch zwei im Grundkörper 132 vorgesehene Ausnehmungen 170, 172 unterscheidet. Diese sind durchgängig in dem Grundkörper 132 ausgebildet und weisen in der Draufsicht jeweils einen etwa halbkreisförmigen Abschnitt 174 der von einem geraden Abschnitt 176 begrenzt wird auf, wobei die beiden geraden Abschnitte 176 im Wesentlichen parallel zueinander verlaufen. Die beiden Ausnehmungen 170, 172 dienen der Materialeinsparung und bewirken eine weitere Gewichtsreduzierung der PAR-Lampenanordnung.According to FIG. 12 showing a three-dimensional view of a base assembly 4 according to the invention, the integral lamp 2 is designed as a halogen incandescent lamp (halogen burner) in beam frame technology. Such a halogen incandescent lamp 2 has a helix 152 which is provided, for example, with four helical sections 154 and is fixed in position in a piston 158 via a beam frame 156, which has two helical holders 155 with approximately U-shaped curvatures 157 and a hook-like retaining element 159. The two spiral holders 155 and the holding element 159 are fixed in their position relative to each other by a transverse bar 161 made of quartz glass, wherein the two coil holders 155 lie in one plane. The piston 158 is above, already in FIG. 6 explained, one-sided pinch seal 44 sealed, in which the two end portions of the coil 152 are connected via power supply lines and one molybdenum foil 46 with led out of the pinch seal contact pins 48. The two contact pins 48 are each welded to a power supply 58, 60 with an integrated electrical fuse, wherein the power supply lines are approximately U-shaped returned in the direction of the pinch 44 and welded to contact springs 160, 162 contact lugs 164, 166 welded. The base assembly 4 has a ceramic base 168 extending from the already in the FIGS. 9 to 11 explained ceramic base only by two provided in the main body 132 recesses 170, 172 different. These are formed continuously in the base body 132 and each have in plan view an approximately semicircular portion 174 bounded by a straight portion 176, wherein the two straight portions 176 are substantially parallel to each other. The two recesses 170, 172 serve to save material and cause a further reduction in weight of the PAR lamp assembly.

Figur 13 zeigt eine Vorderansicht einer der beiden Kontaktfedern 160, 162 der Sockelanordnung 4 aus Figur 12. Um die Eintauchtiefe der Einbaulampe 2 in die Kontaktfederanordnung zu begrenzen, ist an den Kontaktfedern 160, 162 jeweils ein etwa schlitzförmiger Einführabschnitt 94, 96 ausgebildet, in den jeweils eine, an den beiden Seitenflächen der Quetschung 44 ausgebildete Nocke 98 (siehe Figur 12) der Einbaulampe 2 einführbar ist. Die Kontaktfedern 160, 162 unterscheiden sich von den bereits in den Figuren 7 und 8 beschriebenen Kontaktfedern im Wesentlichen dadurch, dass die Einführabschnitte 94, 96 lampenseitig nicht von in den Einführabschnitt auskragenden Eckbereichen (siehe Figur 7) begrenzt werden, d.h. die Nocken 98 der Quetschung 44 liegen im eingesetzten Zustand der Einbaulampe 2 lediglich an den Einführabschnitten an (siehe Figur 12). Dadurch wird eine definierte Positionierung der Einbaulampe 2 in der Kontaktfederanordnung ermöglicht. FIG. 13 shows a front view of one of the two contact springs 160, 162 of the base assembly 4 from FIG. 12 , In order to limit the immersion depth of the built-in lamp 2 in the contact spring arrangement, an approximately slot-shaped insertion section 94, 96 is formed on the contact springs 160, 162, in each case one, on the two side surfaces of the pinch 44th trained cam 98 (see FIG. 12 ) of the built-in lamp 2 can be inserted. The contact springs 160, 162 differ from those already in the FIGS. 7 and 8th described contact springs essentially in that the insertion sections 94, 96 on the lamp side not projecting from the insertion in the corner regions (see FIG. 7 ) are limited, ie the cams 98 of the pinch 44 are in the inserted state of the built-in lamp 2 only at the insertion (see FIG. 12 ). As a result, a defined positioning of the built-in lamp 2 in the contact spring arrangement is made possible.

Die Montage der PAR-Lampenanordnung 1 ist bei beiden vorbeschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen ähnlich und weist im Wesentlichen folgende Schritte auf: In einem ersten Arbeitsgang werden die beiden Kontaktstifte 48 der Einbaulampe 2 jeweils mit einer Stromzuführung 58, 60 mit einer integrierten elektrischen Sicherung 62, 64 verschweißt und die Stromzuführungen 58, 60 etwa U-förmig in Richtung der beiden planparallelen Flächen 50, 52 der Quetschung 44 zurückgebogen. Anschließend werden die Kontaktfedern 12, 14 bzw. 160, 162 in den Keramiksockel 10; 168 eingesteckt und durch den Eingriff der Federlaschen 116 im Sockel 10 mit diesem zu einer Kontaktfederanordnung 37 verbunden. In einem unabhängigen Arbeitsgang wird die Streuscheibe 16 in die zylinderförmige Umfangswand 26 des Aluminiumreflektors 6 eingelegt und durch Umbördeln eines Umfangsabschnittes 30 mit dem Reflektor 6 verbunden.
