Definitions
- the invention relates to a lighting fixture protection according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention also relates to a lighting fixture according to the preamble of claim 8.
- a light source unit from the Japanese patent publication JP-2001307535 , in which unit, a light-permeable protective element is fitted in the opening of the reflector element.
- Said protective element is realized of a netting element. Its purpose is to prevent the glass splinters from a high-pressure lamp, such as a mercury lamp, from scattering out of the light source unit, in case the lamp should, for one reason or another, explode or be otherwise broken into small pieces.
- the problem here is the net-like structure of the protective element, which probably remarkably reduces the luminosity of the lamp.
- the object of the invention is to eliminate the drawbacks connected to the above described lighting fixtures and particularly to their protective elements.
- Another object of the invention is to realize a novel protection that is in particular suited to be used as an accessory for already installed lighting fixtures, in order to improve safety for instance in the production facilities of food industry.
- a lighting fixture protection according to the invention is characterized by what is set forth in claim 1.
- a lighting fixture according to the invention is characterized by what is set forth in claim 8.
- Independent claims describe preferred embodiments of the invention.
- the invention relates to a light-permeable protection for a lighting fixture, particularly a ceiling lamp or a floodlight for a high space, said lighting fixture comprising a reflector and a replaceable electric light source, such as a mercury lamp, connected thereto, so that the protection is attached in connection with said reflector.
- the protection is realized as a separate accessory including a light-permeable cupola part and a collar provided with fastening means for fastening the cupola part detachably in the lighting fixture reflector, so that it encompasses the light aperture of the reflector.
- the protection is a separate accessory that can be installed in existing industrial lamps or the like.
- it can be purchased as an accessory for new lighting fixtures in industrial or exhibition facilities or in public facilities in general, either new facilities or facilities to be restored.
- This makes it possible to raise the safety level in said facilities, because the risk of scattering glass splinters produced by possibly explosive lamps is eliminated.
- This aspect is particularly important in the illumination of production facilities in the food industry. The spreading of tiny glass splinters in the foodstuffs treated in the production process is not desirable. It is, however, pointed out that a lighting fixture functions and can be used also without a protection according to the invention.
- the collar of the protection is provided with a fastening edge that forms an expansion in the open orifice of the collar, in which expansion the outer edge of the reflector orifice can be fitted so that it is supported against said expansion.
- the fastening edge of the collar is provided with a sealing.
- the protection preferably its collar, is provided with at least one aperture.
- the advantage is that the ventilation in the interior of the protection and the reflector is arranged to be carried out through the aperture.
- the air inside the protection and the reflector is heated and expanded, and through the aperture, the expanding air can be discharged out of the lighting fixture.
- the reflector of the lighting fixture can be a closed reflector, realized without any apertures.
- the aperture is provided with a dust filter.
- the advantage is that dust cannot penetrate into the interior of the lighting fixture along with ventilation.
- the cupola part is a revolution body with a curved surface, preferably an essentially hemispherical body.
- the advantage of this kind of shape is that it endures, without being broken and/or detached, the next impact-like pressure wave following the breaking of the lamp.
- the cupola part is made of plastic, such as acryl, polycarbonate or the like.
- plastic such as acryl, polycarbonate or the like.
- the invention also relates to a lighting fixture, particularly a ceiling lamp or floodlight made for high spaces, which lamp essentially comprises a reflector and a replaceable electric light source, such as a mercury lamp, fitted therein, as well as a light-permeable protection that is attached in connection with the reflector.
- the protection includes a light-permeable cupola part and a collar provided with fastening means for fastening the cupola part detachably to the reflector of the lighting fixture, so that it encompasses the light aperture of the reflector.
- the lighting fixture 2 is an industrial lamp installed in the ceiling, which lamp is used for illuminating high spaces, for example with a height of 5 - 20 m, for instance industrial or corresponding facilities.
- the lighting fixture 2 comprises a reflector 3 and, as fitted therein, a replaceable electric light source 4, such as a mercury lamp, a high-pressure sodium lamp as well as mechanical and electric connecting elements 5 for connecting the lamp in the lighting fixture and further to an electricity source, advantageously the mains.
- a support element 6 the lighting fixture 2 can be attached to the ceiling, but it can also be attached to the wall or to a pillar by suitable suspension elements.
- the shape of the reflector 3 of the lighting fixture 2 is a rotation paraboloid, but it can also have some other geometrical shape, such as a truncated cone or the like, the cross-section of which can be a circle, an ellipse, a square, a rectangle or a combination of these.
- the protection 1 is detachably attached in connection with the reflector 3, particularly in its light aperture 31, as is illustrated in Figures 1 and 3.
- the protection 1 is realized to be a separate accessory that includes a light-permeable cupola part 11 and a collar 12.
- Fastening means 13 are provided for fastening the cupola part 11 of the collar 12 in the lower part of the reflector 3, particularly in the light aperture 31 of the reflector, so that it encompasses the light aperture 31.
- the fastening means 13 are realized by means of screws 13a.
- the screws 13a are arranged at regular angle intervals, for instance at intervals of 90 degrees, on the circumference of the collar 12, so that in the protection fastening step, they can be turned towards the collar 12 and the interior of the protection 1, for fastening the protection to the reflector, and respectively in the removal step, they can be turned outwards from the collar 12 and from the interior of the protection, for detaching the protection from the reflector in order to remove it.
- the collar 12 of the protection 1 is annular in shape, and it is provided with a fastening edge 12a.
- the fastening edge 12a forms, in the open orifice of the collar 12, an expansion in which the outer edge 32 encompassing the orifice 31 of the reflector 3 can be fitted, so that it is supported against the interior of the expansion.
- the fastening edge 12a of the collar 12 is provided with a sealing 16, preferably a sealing strip.
- the sealing 16 is compressed in between the outer edge 32 of the reflector 3 and the fastening edge 12a, so that it forms an air-tight lock between the interior and exterior that the reflector and the protection have in common.
- the screws 13a serving as the fastening means 13 hold the reflector 3, by its outer edge 32, inside the fastening edge 12a, and consequently the protection 1 and the reflector 3 of the lighting fixture 2 mutually attached.
- the fastening means 13 can be realized by means of a hoop and a latch arrangement.
- the hoop is connected to the top part of the collar 12.
- the protection 1 is attached in connection with the reflector 3
- the hoop is tightened around the lower part of the reflector of the lighting fixture by means of one or several latches belonging to the latch arrangement.
- the hoop is loosened by opening the latches, and respectively the protection can be detached from the reflector 3.
- the collar 12 of the protection 1 is provided with at least one aperture 14. Through said aperture 14, the ventilation of the interior of the reflector 3 and the protection 1 is arranged to be carried out.
- a dust filter 15 is provided in connection with the aperture/apertures 14.
- the collar 12 is provided with a pocket 17, in which pocket an advantageously plate-like, porous and elastic dust filter can be fitted and easily replaced.
- the cupola part 11 of the protection is a revolution body with a curved surface, preferably a body with an essentially hemispherical shape.
- the cupola part 11 is made of plastic, such as acryl, polycarbonate or the like.
- the invention also relates to a lighting fixture 2 that is provided with a protection 1 described above.
- said lighting fixture 2 is a ceiling lamp or a floodlight made for high spaces, which lamp comprises a reflector 3 and as fitted therein, a replaceable electric light source 4, such as a mercury lamp, and a light-permeable protection 1 that is attached in connection with the reflector.
- the protection 1 comprises a light-permeable cupola part 11 and a collar 12 provided with fastening means 13 for fastening the cupola part detachably in the reflector 3 of the lighting fixture, so that it encompasses the light aperture 31 of the reflector 3.
- the protection 1 is preferably realized and fastened in the reflector 3 by methods and elements that are described in the specification and/or drawings above.
