Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an orientable lighting appliance, suitable in particular but not exclusively for wall installations, having considerable usefulness and convenience of use.
  • Lighting appliances are known, which substantially comprise a projector which can be rotated around an arm suitable for wall or ceiling installations. These lighting appliances are normally used for directly and distinctly illuminating a certain target and their particular characteristic is that they can be easily orientated depending on the requirements of use.
  • Some lighting appliances therefore envisage specific blocking mechanisms in the position of the projector once it has been oriented as required, but these mechanisms are not only complicated to produce and manoeuvre but also have external activating elements which in some way disturb the aesthetic appearance of the lighting appliance itself.
  • Document EP-A-1 477 725 discloses a wall mounted luminaire provided with a rotatably light guide device for guiding a light flux emitted by a light means.
  • the light guide device comprises a detent device pivotably mounted about an axis of rotation for fixing a light guide element in some detent positions.
  • this detent device is able to adjust the light flux according to a limited number of predetermined positions only.
  • document US 2003/227772 A1 discloses a light fixture provided with a device for adjusting the internal reflector, wherein the device is in the form of a ratchet and pawl mechanism and it is thus able to rotate the reflector according to a limited number of predefined increments only.
  • An objective of the present invention is therefore to provide an orientable lighting appliance, suitable in particular for direct wall or ceiling installations but also possibly on specific guiding rails, which is capable of eliminating the above drawbacks, simplifying the orientation and making the subsequent blocking of the projector which rotates around its supporting arm, more stable.
  • a further objective of the present invention is to provide an orientable lighting appliance with a limited encumbrance, an extremely simple structure and with regulation and blocking elements which are totally or almost invisible for an external observer, and at the same time easy to activate.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 these schematically show an orientable lighting appliance comprising a supporting arm 10 which supports and is constrained to at least one projector or lamp space 12 inside which at least one light source is envisaged (not shown).
  • the light source contained inside the lamp space 12 can consist for example of a lamp of the discharge type or a halogen lamp, charged at either the supply voltage or at a low voltage by the interposition of a suitable transformer.
  • the lamp space 12 contains in its interior all the elements necessary for the correct functioning of the lighting appliance, i.e. possible reflecting walls and/or shields, reactors, transformers and various electric components, whereas the supporting arm 10, inside which at least one groove 14 is envisaged ( figure 4 ) for the passage of electric supply wires, is suitable for direct fixing to walls or ceilings or on a specific guiding rail or on an analogous structure by means of its connecting portion 16.
  • the constraint between the lamp space 12 and the supporting arm 10 is provided by means of a hinge 18 around which the lamp space 12 can be rotated by a user in order to obtain the desired orientation.
  • the lamp space 12 and the supporting arm 10 of the lighting appliance are produced in metal, for example in aluminum pressure die-casting, and in a thermoplastic material.
  • the lighting appliance is equipped with a rod or lever 20 slidingly coupled with the arm 10 and constrainable thereto, hinged onto the lamp space 12 by means of a pin 22 having a rotation axis parallel and distanced with respect to the rotation axis of the hinge 18 which connects the lamp space 12 to its supporting arm 10.
  • the rod 20 On the free end of the rod 20, i.e. the opposite end to that on which the rotation pin 22 is situated, there is an opening 24 capable of receiving in its interior at least one block bead 26, or any other analogous fixing means, whose function is to allow the rod 20 to be constrained to the supporting arm 10 and consequently keep the lamp space 12 in a fixed position with respect to its arm 10 according to a desired tilting, as can be seen for example in the schematized drawings of figures 1 and 2 .
  • the rod 20 is situated inside the arm 10, in a position hidden from an outside observer, and its movement with respect to said arm 10 is made possible by the fact that the rod 20 itself slides inside a specific guide channel defined by one or more opposite guiding walls 28 and 30 situated in the body of the arm 10.
  • the opening 24 can be dimensioned so as to allow a predefined translation movement of the rod 20 inside the arm 10 thus allowing the projector 12 to rotate according to a pre-established width angle, for example up to 80°-90°.
  • the block bead 26 cooperates both with the wall 28, engaging and disengaging the rod 20 to select and maintain a certain position of the projector 12 which rotates around its own hinge 18, and also with the opening 24, to define a run-end with the two opposite ends of the opening 24, which defines the two extreme positions which the projector 12 and have with respect to the supporting arm 10.
  • the supporting arm 10 can also be equipped with a top or closing casing 32 which allows access and inspection of the rod 20, of the hinge 18 and rotation pin 22, in addition to the supply wires of the light source. If said top 32 is present, the bead 26 can also have the function of blocking the top 32 of the arm 10.
  • the top 32 has a suitable internal protuberance equipped with an opening (not shown), suitable for being inserted in a corresponding groove 34, envisaged on the arm 10 in correspondence with the wall 28, when the top itself 32 is assembled in position, so that the bead 26, by introducing it into the above opening, exerts the double function of being engaged with the rod 20 and blocking the top 32 on the supporting arm 10.
  • the supporting arm 10 can be produced in a single piece, whereas the rod 20 can also optionally be situated outside the arm 10, maintaining however the same functional characteristics.
  • the projector 12 is rotated around the hinge 18 which constrains it to the supporting arm 10. This rotation simultaneously also causes the rototranslation of the pin 22 with respect to the axis of the fixed hinge 18 and the consequent movement of the rod 20 inside the arm 10.
  • the rototranslation movement of the rod 20 is blocked by fixing the block bead 26 so that, thanks to the screwing force applied on the threadings of the hole situated on the arm 10, the block bead itself 26 compresses the rod 20 against the guiding wall 28, thus constraining said rod 20 to the body of the arm 10. In this way, the projector 12 is kept firmly in position preventing any accidental movement with respect to the supporting arm 10.
  • the orientable lighting appliance which can be installed on walls or ceilings, according to the present invention, achieves the objectives indicated above, as it allows the projector to be blocked in position and rapidly unblocked to be re-oriented by simply acting on the block bead, easily accessible from the outside but not at all cumbersome and with an extremely reduced visible impact, which controls the position of the translatable rod with respect to the supporting arm.
