Definitions

  • the invention relates to an elongated hanging lamp with at least one mounting portion for holding an end portion of a suspension element, in particular a rope, at a cable support point, wherein this can be moved laterally to the longitudinal extension of the lamp.
  • Lights are often hung on ropes or other flexible suspension on a support, such as a ceiling of a room.
  • the ropes engage in mounting areas on the lamp, for example on the lamp housing or on a connecting element between a plurality of lamp housings. This is done in a present in the attachment area cable support point, d. H. in an approximately punctiform area where the load is transferred to the rope.
  • the problem may arise that different weight distribution with respect to a center of symmetry or a plane of symmetry of the lamp cause an undesirable inclination of the hanging lamp.
  • asymmetrical weight distribution can result, for example, from tolerances of the material thicknesses of the individual components, from asymmetrical built-in components and / or from assembly tolerances.
  • multi-leaf lights in which Illuminants are arranged on both sides of a hanging on ropes connecting element can show this effect pronounced by their comparatively large width.
  • the error can be corrected if the cable support point can be moved so that it lies in the desired mounting position of the lamp vertically above the center of gravity.
  • a suspension device for lighting in which a mountable on the lamp housing holding part is provided with a horizontally extending guide and a sliding along the guide clamping device can accommodate the end of the rope.
  • a mountable on the lamp housing holding part is provided with a horizontally extending guide and a sliding along the guide clamping device can accommodate the end of the rope.
  • the present invention therefore has as its object to provide a suspended luminaire, which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art described.
  • a suspension especially a rope of metal wire or vegetable or synthetic fiber such as hemp or polyamide is used. But there are also wires or monofilaments or tapes, optionally braided, usable if their end portions are designed so that they can be absorbed by the mounting area.
  • the at least one mounting area with guide slot and disk-shaped element is formed on the lamp housing itself. This is especially possible if the lamp is designed relatively narrow and long stretched.
  • the at least one fastening region is mounted approximately in the middle relative to the transverse direction of the luminaire. If the lamp has two or another even number of mutually parallel light housings, the at least a connection element are arranged symmetrically, the attachment area is advantageously formed on the connecting element.
  • a hanging on only one rope light in the longitudinal or transverse direction can be aligned horizontally.
  • at least two attachment regions are preferably present, which are spaced apart in the longitudinal extent of the luminaire. For example, they may be near the ends of the luminaire.
  • the disk-shaped element may be, for example, a circular disk.
  • the disk-shaped element can be limited to the material saving located approximately between the pivot point and guide slot area and preferably formed approximately as a circular segment disc.
  • Such a segment disc needs only in the vicinity of the pivot point for the strength of the connection with the mounting area sufficient amount of material and in the segment as much material as is required for the overlap of the guide slot through the slot in the segment disc.
  • the mounting of the rope and the segment disc in the mounting area is facilitated when the radial slot in the disc-shaped element is open towards the periphery.
  • the disk-shaped element must be rotatable during adjustment so that the suspension element can be moved in the guide slot, it is advantageous if it can be fixed after adjustment in the fulcrum, so that the setting is not changed by accidental shocks. This is preferably achieved by attaching the disc-shaped element with an optionally detachable screw in the fulcrum, which is tightened after adjustment.
  • the definition of the disk-shaped element can be determined by others, the expert promote common measures, for example by roughening the touching surfaces.
  • the suspension element When mounting the suspended luminaire according to the invention, care must be taken that the suspension element does not come loose from the cable support point in the fastening area.
  • the suspension element is advantageously provided at the end facing the lamp with a widening, which is thicker than the width of the guide slot. The weight of the lamp is then transmitted via the lower edges of the guide slot on the expansion and thus on the suspension. It may be helpful to design the widening and guide slot so that the end portion of the hanger can easily slide under load.
  • the expansion can be realized for example by a soldered, screwed or crushed nipple.
  • the light is designed as a light band with at least two adjacent to a common longitudinal axis adjacent luminaire housings.
  • at least one fastening region is arranged in the transition region between adjoining luminaire housings.
  • the term light band is understood to mean an arrangement of a plurality of elongated lamps which are arranged one behind the other in the direction of their longitudinal extent.
  • these luminaires may each have individual luminous tubes or else several luminous tubes lying parallel to one another.
  • Continuous lighting strips are installed, for example, to illuminate large rooms in lengths of up to 30 m and more.
  • the luminaire housings are usually adapted for use in the light band.
  • To connect the lights in the light strip with each other serve so-called light band couplings, which support the end portions of adjacent luminaire housing, replace the end walls of the luminaire housing and replace the electrical Can connect between the lights.
  • These connections of the luminaires with each other can be made so stable that you only need one mounting area per luminaire housing or even less.
  • Such a fastening region is preferably provided on a light band coupling, because it then carries the end regions of two luminaire housings.
  • FIG. 1a shows the side view of a portion of a suspension lamp according to the invention, in which a lamp housing 1 via a suspension element, in this case a wire rope 2, not at one shown carrier, such as a ceiling or a ceiling joist suspended. Also not shown is the other end of the pendant, which is hung in the same way. The figure also shows that the wire rope is guided by a with a screw 11 attached to the lamp housing 1 segment disc 5, which will be described later in more detail.
  • a suspension element in this case a wire rope 2
  • carrier such as a ceiling or a ceiling joist suspended.
  • the other end of the pendant which is hung in the same way.
  • the figure also shows that the wire rope is guided by a with a screw 11 attached to the lamp housing 1 segment disc 5, which will be described later in more detail.
  • FIG. 1b shows a plan view of the in FIG. 1a represented part of the suspension lamp.
  • a mounting area 3 is marked, in which the segment disc 5 is fixed with the screw 11.
  • FIG. 2 shows the same part of the pendant in an oblique view, again with the top 4 of the lamp housing 1 and segment disc 5, wherein the wire rope 2 is guided by the segment disc 5 and the top 4 in the interior of the lamp housing.
  • the front side of the lamp housing is closed with an end wall 7.
  • the wire rope 2 is provided at its lower end with a nipple 6 which holds the end of the wire rope inside the lamp housing so that it rests on the nipple, and the wire rope 2 otherwise in the openings of the segment disc fifth and the top 4 remains movable.
  • FIG. 4 details of the mounting portion 3, wherein the segment disc 5 is removed.
  • a guide slot 8 is attached, through which the wire rope 2 is performed so that it is displaceable in the guide slot.
  • a threaded bore 16 in the pivot point 10 is intended for receiving the screw 11.
  • a recess 17 is provided adjacent to the end wall 7, which contributes to the formation of a guide slot when two lamp housings are connected together in a light band, as will be described later.
  • FIG. 5 shows the attachment area with the applied segment disc 5, which is initially rotatably mounted in the pivot point 10 with the screw 11.
  • the wire rope 2 extends perpendicular to the plane of the paper through the radial slot 9 and here hidden by the segment disc 5 guide slot 8.
  • the pivot point 10 is located on the center line M of the top 4 of the lamp housing, while the radial slot 9 by about 30 ° deviates from the center line. Accordingly, the cable support point corresponding to the projection of the wire rope 2 is displaced by the distance a against the center line M.
  • the wire rope is moved by the action of the segment disc 5 in the guide slot 8 to the center line.
  • the cable support point can be moved to the other side of the center line. Since the end of the wire rope 2 is thereby displaced in the straight and vertical to the center line guide slot 8, this displacement has no component in the longitudinal direction of the lamp.
  • the wire rope 2 can move in the radial slot 9 during the rotational movement relative to the pivot point 10.
  • the fixing area can, of course, also be provided such that the pivot point 10 is correspondingly outside the center line.
  • the segment disc 5 can be fixed by tightening the screw 11 so that it can no longer be adjusted, for example by vibrations. Both the adjustment of the segment disc and the tightening of the screw 11 can done with one hand, so that the assembly is facilitated.
  • FIGS. 6 to 9 describe a second embodiment of the invention, in which the pendant light is designed as a light band.
  • FIG. 6 This luminaire housing can basically be designed as in the above-described pendant light, but usually the end wall is omitted and by a so-called light band coupling, which is attached to the ends of the abutting luminaire housing and holding them together, replacing them. In this case, only one mounting area 3 in the region of the light band coupling is required.
  • a segment disc 5 is provided with a radial slot 9 as in the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 7 shows a longitudinal section through the connection region of the light band with the wire rope 2, on the nipple 6, the tops 4 of the lamp housing 1 rest.
  • the segment disc 5 is rotatable about the screw 11.
  • FIG. 8 is the attachment area, similar to in FIG. 4 without the segment disc 5 shown.
  • the recesses 17 of the adjoining tops 4 of the lamp housing 1 together form the guide slot for the end of the wire 2.
  • the intended for use as a single lamp guide slots 8 are not used in this case.
  • the threaded hole 16 in the pivot point 10 also serves here for fastening the segment disc. 5
  • FIG. 9 shows the mounting portion 3 for the light band connection with applied segment disc 5. The operation is the same here as to FIG. 5 explained.
  • the suspension can be formed as described above for the individual light.
