In addition, a lamp is to be specified, which is connected to such a holding device.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung mit den in den unabhängigen Ansprüchen angegebenen Gegenständen gelöst. Besondere Ausführungsarten der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved according to the invention with the objects specified in the independent claims. Particular embodiments of the invention are indicated in the dependent claims.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist eine Haltevorrichtung zur Halterung einer Leuchte an einer Wand vorgesehen, die ein erstes Halteelement aufweist, das dafür vorgesehen ist, an der Wand fixiert zu werden, sowie ein zweites Halteelement, das dafür vorgesehen ist, mit der Leuchte lagefixiert verbunden zu werden. Das zweite Halteelement ist dabei gegenüber dem ersten Halteelement um eine Schwenkachse schwenkbar angeordnet.According to the invention, a holding device is provided for mounting a lamp on a wall, which has a first holding element which is intended to be fixed to the wall, and a second holding element, which is intended to be fixed in position fixed to the lamp , The second holding element is arranged pivotable relative to the first holding element about a pivot axis.

Durch die schwenkbare Ausgestaltung lässt sich erzielen, dass die Leuchte, ausgehend von einer für den Betrieb vorgesehenen Stellung, von der Wand weg geschwenkt werden kann, so dass ein rückwärtiger Bereich der Leuchte besser zugänglich ist. Hierdurch ist ermöglicht, dass sich die Leuchte leichter an der Haltevorrichtung montieren und von der Haltevorrichtung, genauer von dem zweiten Halteelement lösen bzw. demontieren lässt.The pivotable design makes it possible to achieve that the luminaire, starting from a position provided for operation, can be pivoted away from the wall so that a rearward region of the luminaire is more accessible. This makes it possible for the luminaire to be mounted more easily on the holding device and to be detached or dismounted from the holding device, more precisely from the second holding element.

Erfindungsgemäß weist das zweite Halteelement Tragemittel auf, die dazu ausgebildet sind, die Leuchte in ihrer für den Betrieb vorgesehenen Ausrichtung von oben tragend zu halten. Hierdurch lässt sich erzielen, dass die mit der Haltevorrichtung verbundene Leuchte in der für den Betrieb vorgesehenen Position stabil verbleibt.According to the invention, the second holding element on carrying means, which are adapted to hold the lamp in its intended for operation alignment from above supporting.

Eine besonders einfache Handhabung ist ermöglicht, wenn das zweite Halteelement gegenüber dem ersten Halteelement längs bzw. parallel zu der Schwenkachse nicht verschiebbar gelagert ist.A particularly simple handling is made possible when the second holding element is not displaceable relative to the first holding element along or parallel to the pivot axis.

Erfindungsgemäß umfasst das erste Halteelement einen plattenförmigen Teil, der dafür vorgesehen ist, in Anlage an die Wand gebracht zu werden. Dies ermöglicht eine einfache Montage an der Wand. Dabei ist die Haltevorrichtung derart gestaltet, dass die Schwenkachse im Wesentlichen in einer Ebene verläuft, die durch den plattenförmigen Teil festgelegt ist. Dabei ist die Schwenkachse nicht weiter als 10% der Erstreckung des zweiten Halteelements in einem Schnitt normal zu der Schwenkachse von der Ebene entfernt. Auf diese Weise lässt sich durch Schwenken der Leuchte ein besonders großer Freiraum schaffen, so dass die rückwärtige Zugänglichkeit zur Montage und Demontage der Leuchte weitergehend verbessert ist.According to the invention, the first holding element comprises a plate-shaped part, which is intended to be brought into abutment against the wall. This allows easy mounting on the wall. In this case, the holding device is designed such that the pivot axis extends substantially in a plane which is defined by the plate-shaped part.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine Skizze eines Ausführungsbeispiels einer erfindungsgemäßen Haltevorrichtung 2 mit einer daran befestigten Leuchte 4. In Fig. 2 ist die Haltevorrichtung 2 ohne die Leuchte dargestellt. Fig. 1 shows a sketch of an embodiment of a holding device 2 according to the invention with an attached light 4. In Fig. 2 the holding device 2 is shown without the lamp.

Die Haltevorrichtung 2 ist zur Halterung der Leuchte 4 an einer Wand 6, insbesondere an einer vertikal verlaufenden Wand 6 vorgesehen und weist ein erstes Halteelement 8 auf, das dafür vorgesehen ist, an der Wand 6 fixiert zu werden, sowie ein zweites Halteelement 10, das dafür vorgesehen ist, mit der Leuchte 4 lagefixiert verbunden zu werden. Mit "lagefixiert" sei dabei insbesondere zum Ausdruck gebracht, dass die vorgesehene Verbindungsstruktur zwischen der Leuchte 4 und dem zweiten Halteelement 10 keine Lageranordnung für eine Relativbewegung zwischen diesen beiden Teilen aufweist bzw. keine beweglichen Verbindungsmittel.The holding device 2 is provided for supporting the lamp 4 on a wall 6, in particular on a vertically extending wall 6 and has a first holding element 8, which is intended to be fixed to the wall 6, and a second holding element 10, the is intended to be fixed in position with the lamp 4. With "fixed in position" is in particular expressed that the proposed connection structure between the lamp 4 and the second support member 10 has no bearing assembly for a relative movement between these two parts and no movable connection means.

Das erste Halteelement 8 kann wenigstens eine Durchgangsöffnung 81 aufweisen, die für eine feste Verbindung, beispielsweise eine Schraubverbindung mit der Wand 6 vorgesehen ist.The first retaining element 8 may have at least one passage opening 81, which is provided for a fixed connection, for example a screw connection with the wall 6.

Das zweite Halteelement 10 ist dabei gegenüber dem ersten Halteelement 8 um eine Schwenkachse S, insbesondere Drehachse schwenkbar bzw. drehbar angeordnet. Zu der Verbindung des zweiten Halteelements 10 mit dem ersten Halteelement 8 kann insbesondere ein Bolzen 12 vorgesehen sein, der in der Schwenkachse S bzw. Drehachse angeordnet ist. Es kann insbesondere vorgesehen sein, dass das zweite Halteelement 10 gegenüber dem ersten Halteelement 8 lediglich um die Schwenkachse S beweglich bzw. schwenk- oder drehbar angeordnet ist. Durch den Bolzen 12 und dessen Lagerung an dem ersten Halteelement 8 und dem zweiten Halteelement 10 kann dementsprechend ein Scharnier gebildet sein.The second holding element 10 is arranged opposite the first holding element 8 about a pivot axis S , in particular pivot axis or rotatable. For the connection of the second holding element 10 to the first holding element 8, in particular a bolt 12 may be provided, which is arranged in the pivot axis S or axis of rotation. It can be provided, in particular, that the second holding element 10 is arranged so as to be movable or pivotable or rotatable relative to the first holding element 8 only about the pivot axis S. By the bolt 12 and its bearing on the first holding member 8 and the second holding member 10 may accordingly be formed a hinge.

Vorzugsweise ist die Ausgestaltung der Haltevorrichtung 2 derart, dass die Schwenk- bzw. Drehachse S in der vorgesehenen Ausrichtung der Haltevorrichtung 2 waagrecht verlaufend orientiert ist.Preferably, the embodiment of the holding device 2 is such that the pivoting or rotation axis S is oriented horizontally in the intended orientation of the holding device 2.

In Fig. 3 ist ein schematischer Querschnitt skizziert, der die Haltevorrichtung 2, die Leuchte 4 und die Wand 6 zeigt. Durch die schwenkbare Verbindung der beiden Halteelemente 8, 10 lässt sich die Leuchte 4, ausgehend von einer für den Betrieb vorgesehenen Stellung, von der Wand 6 weg um einen Winkel α ausschwenken. Auf diese Weise wird insbesondere ein rückwärtiger Bereich der Leuchte 4 besser zugänglich und die Leuchte 4 kann einfacher montiert und auch von der Haltevorrichtung 2 bzw. von dem zweiten Halteelement 10 gelöst werden. Hierzu kann beispielsweise die Verwendung eines Werkzeugs, beispielsweise eines Schraubendrehers 20 vorgesehen sein.In Fig. 3 a schematic cross section is sketched showing the holding device 2, the lamp 4 and the wall 6. Due to the pivotable connection of the two holding elements 8, 10, the lamp 4, starting from a position provided for the operation, swing away from the wall 6 by an angle α. In this way, in particular a rear area of the lamp 4 is more accessible and the lamp 4 can be easily mounted and also detached from the holding device 2 and from the second holding element 10. For this purpose, for example, the use of a tool, such as a screwdriver 20 may be provided.

Beispielsweise kann die Haltevorrichtung 2 derart gestaltet sein, dass das zweite Halteelement 10 gegenüber dem ersten Halteelement 8 um mindestens 40°, vorzugsweise mindestens 60° geschwenkt bzw. gedreht werden kann.For example, the holding device 2 may be designed such that the second holding element 10 can be pivoted or rotated relative to the first holding element 8 by at least 40 °, preferably at least 60 °.

Vorzugsweise weist das zweite Halteelement 10 Tragemittel 14 auf, die dazu ausgebildet sind, die Leuchte 4 in ihrer für den Betrieb vorgesehenen Ausrichtung von oben tragend zu halten. Hierdurch ist ermöglicht, dass die Leuchte 4, ausgehend von einer beliebigen ausgelenkten Stellung, einfach um die Schwenkachse S in ihre vorgesehene Ausrichtung geschwenkt werden kann und in dieser verbleibt, ohne dass hierfür zusätzliche besondere Maßnahmen zur Lagesicherung oder Stabilisierung der Leuchte 4 erforderlich wären.Preferably, the second support member 10 has support means 14 which are adapted to hold the lamp 4 in its intended for operation alignment from above supporting. This makes it possible that the lamp 4, starting from any deflected position, can be easily pivoted about the pivot axis S in its intended orientation and remains in this, without requiring additional special measures to secure the position or stabilization of the lamp 4 would be required.

Vorteilhaft ist zwischen dem zweiten Halteelement 10 und der Leuchte 4 eine Rastverbindung vorgesehen, durch die die Leuchte 4 an dem zweiten Halteelement 10 gehalten ist, so dass sowohl das zweite Halteelement 10, als auch die Leuchte 10 entsprechende Rastelemente aufweisen können. Dementsprechend umfassen die Tragemittel 14 vorteilhaft wenigstens ein Rastelement 142, das bevorzugt federnd gestaltet ist. Insbesondere können die Tragemittel 14 aus mehreren, beispielsweise vier Rastelementen gebildet sein. Die Rastelemente können dabei derart ausgestaltet sein, dass sie sich, beispielsweise paarweise miteinander verbunden, wie an sich aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt, seitlich auf das restliche zweite Halteelement 10 aufschieben lassen.Advantageously, a latching connection is provided between the second holding element 10 and the lamp 4, by which the lamp 4 is held on the second holding element 10, so that both the second holding element 10, and the lamp 10 may have corresponding locking elements. Accordingly, the carrying means 14 advantageously comprise at least one latching element 142, which is preferably resilient. In particular, the carrying means 14 can be formed from a plurality of, for example, four latching elements. The locking elements can be designed in this way, in that they can be pushed laterally onto the remaining second holding element 10, for example in pairs, as known per se from the prior art.

Wie aus Fig. 3 exemplarisch hervorgeht, kann vorgesehen sein, dass in der für den Betrieb vorgesehenen Ausrichtung der Leuchte 4 mit der Haltevorrichtung 2 die Tragemittel 14 zumindest überwiegend, vorzugsweise vollständig unterhalb einer waagrechten Ebene E angeordnet sind, die durch die Schwenkachse S verläuft. Auf diese Weise hängt die Leuchte 4 in ihrer vorgesehenen Ausrichtung besonders stabil und sicher an der Haltevorrichtung 2.How out Fig. 3 As an example, it can be provided that in the intended for operation alignment of the lamp 4 with the holding device 2, the support means 14 at least predominantly, preferably completely below a horizontal plane E are arranged, which extends through the pivot axis S. In this way, the lamp 4 depends in its intended orientation particularly stable and secure on the holding device. 2

Wie aus Fig. 1 exemplarisch hervorgeht, kann die Leuchte 4 eine Verdrahtungsbox 44 aufweisen, wobei die Verdrahtungsbox 44 die weiter oben bereits erwähnten Rastelemente 46 der Leuchte 4 aufweist. Weiterhin kann die Leuchte 4 ein Gerätegehäuse 42 aufweisen. Alternativ oder ergänzend können die Rastelemente der Leuchte 4 auch an dem Gerätegehäuse 42 angeordnet sein.How out Fig. 1 As an example, the luminaire 4 may have a wiring box 44, wherein the wiring box 44 has the latching elements 46 of the luminaire 4 already mentioned above. Furthermore, the lamp 4 may have a device housing 42. Alternatively or additionally, the latching elements of the luminaire 4 can also be arranged on the device housing 42.

Vorteilhaft ist das zweite Halteelement 10 gegenüber dem ersten Halteelement 8 längs bzw. parallel zu der Schwenkachse S nicht verschiebbar gelagert. Hierdurch ist die Beweglichkeit der beiden Halteelemente 8, 10 zueinander limitiert und dadurch die Handhabung der Haltevorrichtung 2 bzw. der damit verbundenen Leuchte 4, insbesondere in Zusammenhang mit ihrer Montage und Demontage weitergehend vereinfacht.Advantageously, the second holding element 10 is not displaceable relative to the first holding element 8 along or parallel to the pivot axis S. As a result, the mobility of the two holding elements 8, 10 is limited to each other and thereby further simplifies the handling of the holding device 2 and the associated lamp 4, in particular in connection with their assembly and disassembly.

Vorzugsweise umfasst das erste Halteelement 8 einen plattenförmigen Teil 82, der dafür vorgesehen ist, in Anlage an die Wand 6 gebracht zu werden. Dies ermöglicht eine besonders einfache Montage der Haltevorrichtung 2 an der Wand 6. Dabei kann insbesondere die wenigstens eine Durchgangsöffnung 81 in dem plattenförmigen Teil 82 ausgebildet sein.Preferably, the first holding element 8 comprises a plate-shaped part 82, which is intended to be brought into abutment against the wall 6. This allows a particularly simple mounting of the holding device 2 on the wall 6. In this case, in particular, the at least one passage opening 81 may be formed in the plate-shaped part 82.

Das zweite Halteelement 10 umfasst vorteilhaft einen weiteren plattenförmigen Teil 104, wobei sich die Tragemittel 14 bzw. die Rastelemente 142 von dem weiteren plattenförmigen Teil 104 nach unten abstehend erstrecken.The second holding element 10 advantageously comprises a further plate-shaped part 104, wherein the carrying means 14 or the latching elements 142 extend from the further plate-shaped part 104 projecting downwards.

Wie aus Fig. 3 beispielhaft hervorgeht, ist die Haltevorrichtung 2 vorteilhaft derart gestaltet, dass die Schwenkachse S im Wesentlichen in einer Ebene PE verläuft, die durch den plattenförmigen Teil 82 des ersten Halteelements 8 festgelegt ist. Mit "im Wesentlichen" sei dabei zum Ausdruck gebracht, dass die Schwenkachse S nicht weiter als ein kleines Maß von der Ebene PE entfernt ist, das beispielsweise 10%, vorzugsweise 5% der Erstreckung L des zweiten Halteelements 10 in einem Schnitt normal zu der Schwenkachse S beträgt.How out Fig. 3 By way of example, the holding device 2 is advantageously designed such that the pivot axis S extends substantially in a plane PE , which is defined by the plate-shaped part 82 of the first holding member 8. By "substantially" is to be expressed that the pivot axis S is no further than a small distance from the plane PE , for example, 10%, preferably 5% of the extension L of the second support member 10 in a section normal to the pivot axis S is.

Auf diese Weise lässt sich durch Schwenken der Leuchte 4 ein besonders großer Freiraum schaffen, so dass die Zugänglichkeit zum rückwärtigen Bereich der Leuchte 4 weitergehend verbessert ist.In this way, can be created by pivoting the lamp 4, a particularly large space, so that the accessibility to the rear area of the lamp 4 is further improved.

Weiterhin vorteilhaft weist das erste Halteelement 8 einen Abstandhalter 84 auf, der dazu ausgebildet ist, die Leuchte 4 in einer für den Betrieb vorgesehenen Stellung in einem Abstand A von der Wand 6 zu halten. Dabei kann der durch den Abstandhalter 84 sichergestellte Abstand A beispielsweise zwischen 5% und 50%, vorzugsweise zwischen 10% und 25% der Erstreckung L des zweiten Halteelements 10 betragen.Further advantageously, the first holding element 8 on a spacer 84 which is adapted to hold the lamp 4 in a designated position for operation at a distance A from the wall 6. In this case, the clearance A secured by the spacer 84 can be, for example, between 5% and 50%, preferably between 10% and 25%, of the extension L of the second holding element 10.

Es kann aber auch eine Ausführung ohne einen solchen Abstandhalter vorgesehen sein; in diesem Fall kann eine unmittelbare Anlage der Leuchte 4 an der Wand 6 vorgesehen sin. Ein zweites Halteelement 10' gemäß einer solchen Variante ist in Fig. 3 in einer um den Winkel α ausgelenkten Stellung angedeutet ist.However, it may also be provided an embodiment without such a spacer; In this case, a direct installation of the lamp 4 can be provided on the wall 6 sin. A second holding element 10 'according to such a variant is in Fig. 3 is indicated in a deflected by the angle α position.

Vorteilhaft weist das zweite Halteelement 10 eine Durchgangsöffnung 102 zur Durchführung einer elektrischen Zuleitung für die Leuchte 4 auf. Hierdurch lässt sich besonders einfach eine elektrische Zuleitung zu der Leuchte 4 herstellen.Advantageously, the second holding element 10 has a passage opening 102 for carrying out an electrical supply line for the light 4. This makes it particularly easy to produce an electrical supply to the light 4.
