Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a leveling device for a luminaire, which allows a height-adjustable mounting of the lamp, in particular in a ceiling.
  • mounting brackets are used, which are bolted to the back of a ceiling above an opening for a lamp.
  • the luminaire housing of the slotlight lights are screwed to the central area of the U-shaped mounting bracket.
  • the wings of the U-shaped mounting brackets are now adjustable in length by means of screws, whereby the luminaire housing can be adjusted flush with the ceiling.
  • a tab is attached in each case with which the mounting bracket can be screwed to the ceiling.
  • a sheet is provided, which is pressed by attaching the lamp to the mounting device by pressing the lamp in the ceiling, whereby an adjustment of the lamp housing can be made according to a ceiling.
  • the leveling of the lamp can be made without disassembly of the lamp, however, is the leveling the lamp only in one direction possible because the compressed metal sheet can not push the lamp back in the other direction.
  • no correction in the other direction can be made more.
  • the present invention is based on the object to improve a device for mounting a lamp in a ceiling such that a leveling of the lamp housing without disassembly of the lamp is possible and the leveling can be made in both directions.
  • a leveling device for height-adjustable mounting a lamp used which has a mounting bracket, a screw and a spring.
  • the screw serves to attach the lamp to the mounting bracket, the spring between the lamp and the mounting bracket is effective.
  • the mounting bracket is U-shaped and the spring is wing-like with a central region and V-shaped wings open.
  • the mounting bracket also has elongated openings in the corners of the U-shape and the wings of the spring pass through the elongated openings in the mounting bracket.
  • the U-shaped configuration of the mounting bracket of the leveling device is particularly advantageous in the current light housings, such as the slotlight light housings, due to their shape.
  • the luminaire may be fastened to the screw with a slotted disc and a sealing element may be mounted between the spring and the luminaire. Due to the slotted a simple and fast attachment of the lamp in the mounting bracket is now possible and in addition is closed by the sealing element of the interior of the lamp housing, so that the lamp can meet, for example, the requirements for the protection IP54.
  • the mounting bracket still has two additional tabs, which have a hole pattern.
  • the hole pattern makes it easy to attach the mounting bracket to a ceiling because it is not necessary to hit a specific hole, but only the area of the tabs.
  • the screw is held by a nut on the mounting bracket.
  • the hole through which the screw engages through the mounting bracket formed as a longitudinal hole, whereby a slight adjustment of the lamp in the transverse direction is possible.
  • the leveling device 1 according to the invention is explained individually. Subsequently, the leveling device 1 according to the invention as a whole - ie in the assembled state - considered in more detail.
  • the Fig. 1a and 1b show a spring 3 of the leveling device 1 according to the invention in two different views.
  • This is a wing-like spring 3 having a central region 10 and two V-shaped wings 11 which adjoin the central region 10.
  • the central region 10 also has a circular hole 12 in the center.
  • FIG. 2a shows the mounting bracket in not yet bent form from above, in FIG. 2b however, the mounting bracket 2 is already bent and in a lateral view.
  • the mounting wing 2 has a U-shape with a central area 13 and two wings 14 extending from the central area 13.
  • a tab 8 is arranged at right angles at the ends of the two wings 14.
  • the tabs 8 are used to attach the mounting bracket 2 to a ceiling 18 and have for this purpose a hole pattern, whereby the assembly is significantly simplified because when mounting the bracket 2 to a ceiling by screwing not exactly a special hole in the tab 8 are taken must, but only the area of the tab 8.
  • the central region 13 of the mounting bracket 2 also has an elongated hole 15 extending in the direction of the two wings 14. In the two corners of the U-shape, ie in the transitions from the central region 13 to the wings 14, in addition, in each case a transversely extending opening 9 is attached.
  • the 3 and 4 Now show a leveling device 1 according to the invention for height-adjustable mounting a lamp 19 in the assembled state or mounted on a ceiling with a lamp.
  • a leveling device 1 according to the invention is shown in the assembled state.
  • the spring 3 is fastened by means of a screw 4 to the mounting bracket 2.
  • the screw 4 extends through the circular opening 12 of the spring 2 and through the elongated opening 15 of the mounting bracket 2.
  • the central portion 10 of the spring 2 is in this case within the U-shape of the mounting bracket 2 and is parallel to the central region 13 of the Mounting bracket 2 is arranged.
  • the screw head of the screw 4 is located on the underside - the side facing away from the central region 13 of the mounting bracket 2 - the central portion 10 of the spring 3.
  • On the outside - the side facing away from the central region 10 of the spring 3 - the central portion 13 of the Mounting bracket 2 is further attached a nut 7, which holds the screw 4 on the mounting bracket 2.
  • the spring 3 is held by the screw 4 and the nut 7 in the mounting bracket 2.
  • a sealing washer 6 and a slotted disc 5 are far away arranged whose function will be described in more detail below.
  • a leveling device 1 according to the invention is shown, which is attached to a ceiling 18, for which the already in the Fig. 2a and 2b described tabs 8 of the mounting bracket 2 are used.
  • These are in particular suspended ceilings, for example made of plasterboard.
  • wood ceilings or ceilings made of other materials would be conceivable.
  • screws 17 are screwed from the bottom completely through the ceiling 18 and then through the hole pattern in the tabs 8 of the mounting bracket 2. The hole pattern, it is not necessary that the screws 17 exactly at a certain point through the ceiling 18th must be screwed, but only in the tabs. 8
  • a luminaire housing 16 a lamp 19 attached.
  • the luminaire housing 16 is held on the screw head of the screw 4 in this case by the slotted disc 5.
  • the slotted disc 5 For mounting the lamp housing 16, the slotted disc 5 must first be removed from the screw 4. Subsequently, the screw head of the screw 4 can be passed through a hole located in the lamp housing 16, said hole having approximately the size of the screw head. Subsequently, the slotted disc 5 is again attached to the screw 4, whereby the lamp housing 16 is held on the screw 4. It should be noted that the diameter of the slotted disc 5 must be larger than the hole in the lamp housing 16.
  • a sealing element 6 is provided between the spring 3 and the luminaire housing 16. This seal member 6 is compressed between the spring 3 and the lamp housing 16, whereby the opening of the lamp housing 16 is sealed.
  • a lamp 19 is shown in a 3D view at the example of two leveling devices 1 according to the invention are mounted.
  • the number of leveling devices 1 which are attached to a lamp 19 here is arbitrary and may depend, for example, on the use of the lamp 19.
  • FIGS. 1 to 5 shown leveling device 1 according to the invention is only one possible embodiment of the present invention. So it is not absolutely necessary that the mounting bracket 2 is screwed to the ceiling 18. Another type of fixation would be conceivable. However, it makes sense to attach the mounting bracket 2 in any way on the ceiling 18, since at the latest when introducing an example transparent cover in the bottom of a lamp housing 16, a certain pressure on the leveling device 1 is exercised.
