Definitions

  • the present invention relates to fixing means for fixing a recessed spot in an opening made in a wall and a recessed spot provided with fixing means of this type.
  • the wall in question will often be made in the form of a false ceiling, for example consisting of plasterboard plates.
  • the conventional recessed spotlights are inserted into a wall through an opening and are held in place by means of spring fasteners, the recessed spots in question being provided with a shoulder with which the recessed spot is clamped against the wall via spring fasteners.
  • recessed spots of this type can not be easily recessed and are not well suited for a wall having a maximum thickness.
  • a large number of walls are made of a wooden frame or light metal, on which plates of plasterboard are fixed. When it comes to mounting a recessed spot close to a slat of this frame, proper application of the spring fastening system can be tedious.
  • DE 29.918.913U describes a recessed spot that can not be off-center and takes up a minimum of space in the wall in which it is fixed. It uses a nut with a screw thread that can cooperate with the external screw thread of a sleeve to fix the position of the nut vis-à-vis the wall.
  • This system has the disadvantage that the sleeve must be placed on the other side of the wall, and that by therefore the other side of the wall must be accessible, which is often not the case.
  • the object of the present invention is to offer a solution for at least one of the aforementioned disadvantages and for others.
  • the invention provides fixing means for fixing a recessed spot in an opening in a wall, these fixing means comprising at least one nut and a sleeve, and this sleeve, in which the recessed spot can be fixed, being provided with an external screw thread which is intended to cooperate with the screw thread of the nut, said nut comprising a body (5) which is provided with a shoulder of which two parts (11). are cut by two planes which are applied by tangential contact on the outer surface of the body (8) of the nut (5)
  • a further advantage lies in the fact that the fixing means can be inserted and can be mounted in an existing wall, without having to dismount the wall to access the other side .
  • fastening means can be arranged in very precise alignment with respect to the wall by rotating the sleeve further and / or less far in the nut and regardless of the thickness of the wall .
  • the invention also relates to a recessed spot which is provided with fixing means as described above.
  • the nut 5 is made from a hollow body of cylindrical shape 8 which is provided with a shoulder 9 which is formed by a ring 10 of which two parts 11 are cut along two parallel lines A and B from and other body. With the shoulder 9, the nut 5 rests on the wall 4.
  • the nut 5 which comprises the body 8 and the shoulder 9, is preferably made in one piece.
  • a part of the body 8 of the nut 5 is embedded, in this example, in the opening 3 of the wall 4. Opening 3 and the diameter of the body 8 of the nut 5 are adapted to each other so that there is obtained between these two elements a minimum functional clearance.
  • the nut 5 On its inner side 12, the nut 5 is provided with a screw thread 13.
  • This screw thread 13 cooperates with a screw thread 14 which is applied on the outer side 15 of the sleeve 6.
  • this screw thread 13-14 is preferably made at a right angle and with an extended clearance.
  • the sleeve 6 is provided at the end 16 which is arranged, after mounting the recessed spot 2, closer to the visible side 17 of the wall 4, a chamfer 18 forming an acute angle.
  • this chamfer 18 extends continuously over the entire thickness of the sleeve 6, the end 16 is formed in the form of a sharp edge 19.
  • a reflector 22 made in this embodiment in the form of a parabolic mirror is glued in the reflector holder 7.
  • the lampholder 23 is connected to the reflector support 7 by a leaf spring 24.
  • This leaf spring 24 is dimensioned such that in the mounted state, the lamp 25 is suspended above the reflector 22 so that that between these two elements, a free space 26 remains available.
  • fastening means 1 for fixing a recessed spot 2 in an opening 3 made in a wall 4 is very simple and as indicated below.
  • the edge of the wall 4 around this opening 3 is cleaned and dusted on the non-visible side 27.
  • the nut 5 is then fixed by gluing to the non-visible side 27 of the wall 4.
  • a layer of adhesive is applied. on the side of the shoulder 9, which will be oriented towards the wall.
  • the nut 5 is rotated around the center line F perpendicular to the lines A and B so that it is inserted, with its narrowest measurement E, into the opening 3; after which, it is served through the opening 3 and is returned in the other direction so that it comes to rest with the glue on the shoulder 9, on the non-visible side of the wall.
  • the recessed spot 2 can be applied in the close vicinity of a batten of this frame.
  • This advantage is obtained by the shape of the shoulder 9 such that the shoulder 9 can be oriented so that the lines A and B extend parallel to the batten.
  • the sleeve 6 is then screwed into the nut 5 until the sharp edge 19 of the cutting chamfer 18 comes to lie flush with the visible side 17 of the wall 4.
  • the screw threads 13-14 may optionally be fixed in this position with glue provided for this purpose.
  • the distance between the edge 28 of the wall 4 and the sharp edge 19 is typically 5 to 10 mm.
  • the opening 3 made in the wall 4 may still be slightly beveled, which facilitates the uniform filling of this opening 3 with a light coating, for example consisting of a combination of cellulose with acrylate resin. This type of coating does not become, after drying, as hard as conventional fillers, but it absorbs better the tensions between the materials of the sleeve 6 and the wall 4.
  • the Spring fasteners 20 which are applied to the reflector support 7 will then hook behind the edge 21 of the sleeve 6, facing inwards.
  • the reflector 22 is provided, on the visible side 17 of the wall 4, with a small flat folded edge 29 which is disposed in the plane of the wall 4. With the technique used, this edge 29 could be transformed into a separation However, this method would introduce the formation of annular halos on the wall, which is not advantageous from the point of view of the lighting technique.
  • FIG 5 there is shown an alternative embodiment of fixing means 1 for fixing a recessed spot 2 in an opening 3 formed in a wall 4 according to the invention.
  • the reflector support 7 is replaced by a sheath 30 comprising an embedded cover plate 31 on which is mounted a spherical joint 32. On the other side of this spherical joint 32, is fixed a frame with a support of spot 33.
  • a series of spring-loaded fasteners 20 are attached to the sheath 30. These spring-loaded fasteners 20 are made in such a way that they can come hang on behind. an edge 21 facing inwards, which is pressed against the sleeve 6 and serves as a stop. Thus, the sheath 30 is held in place, also leaving the armature with the spot holder 33.
  • fixing means 1 for fixing a recessed spot 2 in an opening 3 made in a wall 4 is also very simple and almost completely parallel to the preferred embodiment.
  • the angle formed between a central light ray and the axis CC of the sleeve 6 amounts to a maximum of 20 ° to 25 °, when we want to avoid lighting artifacts.
  • the body 8 of the nut 5 does not necessarily have to be made in a cylindrical shape.
  • Another form for the body 8 of the nut 5 is possible, insofar as it is advisable to adapt the shape of the opening 3 made in the wall 4 to the shape of the body 8 so as to be able to fill the edge formed between the two and that needs to be filled with a coating, in a simple way and in accordance with the rules of art.
  • the lateral projections on the body 8 of the nut 5 can also be made otherwise than with the shoulder 9 which has been described above.
  • the essential thing is to be able to insert the nut 5, with its projections, through the opening 3 made in the wall 4 before being able to bring it by rotation in a position in which the projections come to rest stably against the wall 4 and prevent the nut 5 from falling from this position through the opening 3.
  • the reflector support 7 or the sheath 30 can also be fixed to the sleeve 6 differently than with spring-loaded fasteners 20.
  • fixing means 1 for fixing a recessed spot 2 in an opening 3 made in a wall 4 according to the invention can be implemented in all kinds of shapes and dimensions, without departing from the scope of the invention.
