Description

Einbauleuchte mit Basiskörper und domförmigem Reflektor  Recessed luminaire with base body and domed reflector
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Einbauleuchte gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1, welche einen Basiskörper zur Halterung einer Lichtquelle sowie einen domförmigen Reflektor aufweist, der über eine Verbindungseinrichtung lösbar an dem Basiskörper befestigt ist. Insbesondere betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein sogenanntes Downlight. The present invention relates to a recessed luminaire according to the preamble of claim 1, which has a base body for supporting a light source and a dome-shaped reflector which is detachably fastened to the base body via a connecting device. In particular, the present invention relates to a so-called downlight.
Einbauleuchten der vorstehend beschriebenen Art werden üblicherweise in abgehängten Deckensystemen verwendet. Sie werden hierbei in einer kreisrunden Öffnung der abgehängten Decke versenkt angeordnet. Die Montage erfolgt beispielsweise mit Hilfe eines Montagerings, der zunächst an der Decke fixiert wird. Anschließend kann eine Baueinheit bestehend aus Lichtquellenträger und Reflektor an dem Montagering befestigt werden. Über den Reflektor wird dann das von der Lichtquelle abgegebene Licht im Wesentlichen senkrecht nach unten abgegeben. Recessed luminaires of the type described above are commonly used in suspended ceiling systems. They are here sunk in a circular opening of the suspended ceiling sunk. The assembly takes place for example by means of a mounting ring, which is first fixed to the ceiling. Subsequently, a unit consisting of light source carrier and reflector can be attached to the mounting ring. The light emitted by the light source is then emitted substantially vertically downwards via the reflector.
Durch die Wahl und Ausgestaltung des Reflektors kann die Lichtabgabe des Due to the choice and design of the reflector, the light output of the
Downlights in gewisser Weise beeinflusst werden. Oftmals ist auch gewünscht, innerhalb des Reflektors bzw. an dessen Lichtaustrittsöffnung ein optisches Element anzuordnen, um die Lichtabgabe in bestimmter Weise zu beeinflussen. Bei diesem optischen Element kann es sich um einen transparenten Körper mit lichtstreuenden oder lichtbrechenden Eigenschaften handeln. Auch die Montage eines Leuchtenrasters wäre denkbar. Downlights are somehow influenced. Often, it is also desirable to arrange an optical element within the reflector or at its light exit opening in order to influence the light output in a certain way. This optical element may be a transparent body having light-diffusing or refractive properties. The installation of a lighting grid would be conceivable.
In der DE 100 13 087 AI der Anmelderin ist ein Downlight beschrieben, welches die Befestigung derartiger optischer Zusatzbauteile ermöglicht. Hierfür ist ein Haltering vorgesehen, der am Außenumfang eines vorderen Flansches des Reflektors befestigt ist. Dieser Ring ermöglicht das Einsetzen eines optischen Elements, beispielsweise einer transparenten Scheibe. Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine zu der zuvor beschriebenen bekannten Ausführungsform alternative Lösung zur Befestigung eines Zusatzbauteils bei einem Downlight anzugeben. Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Einbauleuchte mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche. Auch die erfindungsgemäße Einbauleuchte weist zunächst einen Basiskörper zur Halterung einer Lichtquelle sowie einen domförmigen Reflektor auf, der über eine Verbindungseinrichtung lösbar an dem Basiskörper befestigbar ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist nunmehr allerdings die Verbindungseinrichtung derart ausgebildet, dass beim Zusammenfügen von Basiskörper und Reflektor zwischen beiden Elementen ein optisches Element zur Beeinflussung der Lichtabgabe aufgenommen und fixiert wird. In DE 100 13 087 AI the applicant, a downlight is described, which allows the attachment of such additional optical components. For this purpose, a retaining ring is provided which is fixed to the outer periphery of a front flange of the reflector. This ring allows the insertion of an optical element, such as a transparent disc. The present invention has for its object to provide an alternative to the previously described known embodiment, a solution for mounting an additional component in a downlight. The object is achieved by a recessed luminaire with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims. Also, the recessed luminaire according to the invention initially has a base body for supporting a light source and a dome-shaped reflector which is releasably attachable to the base body via a connecting device. According to the invention, however, the connecting device is now designed in such a way that when the base body and the reflector are joined together, an optical element for influencing the light output is picked up and fixed between the two elements.
Mit anderen Worten, bei der vorliegenden Erfindung wird im Gegensatz zum Stand der Technik das optische Element nicht an der Lichtaustrittsöffnung des Reflektors befestigt sondern stattdessen zwischen Basiskörper und Reflektor gelagert. Dort wird es beim Zusammenfügen der beiden Elemente fixiert, beispielsweise verklemmt, so dass eine zuverlässige Halterung gewährleistet ist. Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung würde darüber hinaus auch die Möglichkeit eröffnen, zusätzlich an der In other words, in the present invention, in contrast to the prior art, the optical element is not attached to the light exit opening of the reflector but instead stored between the base body and the reflector. There it is fixed when joining the two elements, for example, jammed, so that a reliable support is guaranteed. The solution according to the invention would also open up the possibility, in addition to the
Lichtaustrittsöffnung des Reflektors weitere Zusatzbauteile anzuordnen. Hierfür könnte wiederum die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Lösung verwendet werden. Light exit opening of the reflector to arrange additional components. For this purpose, in turn, the solution known from the prior art could be used.
Die Verbindungsvorrichtung zwischen Basiskörper und Reflektor ist vorzugsweise durch eine Schraubverbindung bzw. eine Bajonettverbindung gebildet. Dies ermöglicht ein einfaches Zusammenfügen beider Elemente. Auch ein Lösen der Verbindung, um beispielsweise das optische Element auszutauschen, ist ohne Weiteres möglich. The connecting device between the base body and the reflector is preferably formed by a screw connection or a bayonet connection. This allows easy joining of both elements. A release of the connection, for example, to replace the optical element, is readily possible.
Als Lichtquelle kommt im vorliegenden Fall vorzugsweise eine Lichtquelle auf LED- Basis zum Einsatz. Es kann sich beispielsweise um eine Platine handeln, auf der mehrere LEDs matrixartig angeordnet sind. In einem derartigen Fall muss The light source used in the present case is preferably an LED-based light source. It may, for example, be a circuit board on which a plurality of LEDs are arranged like a matrix. In such a case must
berücksichtigt werden, dass beim Betrieb der LEDs eine nicht unbeträchtliche Wärme entsteht. Um diese effektiv abführen zu können, ist vorzugsweise vorgesehen, dass der Basiskörper selbst einen Kühlkörper bildet, auf dem die Lichtquelle angeordnet ist. Hierbei kann die Lichtquelle insbesondere in einer Vertiefung des Kühlkörpers angeordnet sein, wobei in der Vertiefung dann ein zusätzlicher Reflektor, insbesondere ein topfartiger Kopfreflektor angeordnet sein kann. It should be taken into account that not inconsiderable heat is generated during operation of the LEDs. To be able to dissipate this effectively, it is preferably provided that the base body itself forms a heat sink on which the light source is arranged. In this case, the light source can be arranged in particular in a recess of the heat sink, wherein in the depression then an additional reflector, in particular a cup-shaped head reflector can be arranged.

An diesem Montagering wird dann die Baueinheit bestehend aus Basiskörper und The installation of the recessed luminaire in a ceiling is preferably again via a mounting ring, which is provided for attachment in the ceiling opening. At this mounting ring is then the assembly consisting of base body and

Eine Verdrehung des Downlights gegenüber der Decke wird hierdurch verhindert. Fixed reflector, which in turn preferably a screw or Bayonet connection is provided. The mounting ring can have latching means for latching or clamping with the ceiling, which are preferably provided in a Auflageb area with a friction-increasing element or with a corresponding coating.

Figures 1 and 2 show first views of the generally provided with the reference numeral 1 recessed luminaire according to the invention in the fully assembled state. It is a so-called downlight, which is to be mounted in the circular opening of a suspended ceiling.
Die Montage erfolgt hierbei mit Hilfe eines Montagerings 50, der zunächst an der Einbauöffnung der - nicht dargestellten - Decke fixiert wird. Anschließend wird die eigentliche Leuchteneinheit an dem Montagering befestigt. Diese Art der Montage von Downlights ist bereits bekannt und soll dementsprechend im Folgenden nicht weiter besprochen werden. Lediglich kurz soll darauf hingewiesen werden, dass die The assembly takes place here using a mounting ring 50, which is first fixed to the mounting hole of the - not shown - ceiling. Subsequently, the actual lighting unit is attached to the mounting ring. This type of installation of downlights is already known and should therefore not be discussed further below. It should be pointed out briefly that the
Befestigung des Montagerings 50 an der Decke mit Hilfe von Rastmitteln erfolgt, welche insbesondere über den Umfang des Rings 50 verteilte Rastarme 55 umfassen, die höhenverstellbar an Stegen 56 angeordnet sind. Zum Einsetzen des Montagerings 50 in die Deckenöffnung werden die Arme 55 derart positioniert, dass sie das  Fixing the mounting ring 50 is carried on the ceiling by means of locking means, which in particular over the circumference of the ring 50 distributed locking arms 55 comprise, which are arranged adjustable in height on webs 56. To insert the mounting ring 50 in the ceiling opening, the arms 55 are positioned so that they
Einsetzen des Montagerings 50 ermöglichen. Anschließend erfolgt ein seitliches Ausschwenken der Arme 55 derart, dass Auflageelemente 57 auf der Oberseite der abgehängten Decke aufliegen. Gemeinsam mit dem an der Unterseite der Decke anliegenden umlaufenden Flansch 51 bewirken die Auflageelemente 57 eine Allow insertion of the mounting ring 50. Subsequently, a lateral pivoting of the arms 55 takes place in such a way that support elements 57 rest on the top side of the suspended ceiling. Together with the voltage applied to the underside of the ceiling surrounding flange 51, the support elements 57 cause a
Verklemmung des Montagerings 50 mit der Decke. Jamming of the mounting ring 50 with the ceiling.
Eine Besonderheit besteht im vorliegenden Fall dabei darin, dass die Auflageelemente 57 mit einem die Reibung erhöhenden Element 58 bzw. einer Beschichtung versehen sind. Es kann sich beispielsweise um einen Gummiring oder ein entsprechendes aufgestecktes Element aus Gummi oder Kunststoff handeln, durch welches die Reibung mit der Oberfläche der Decke deutlich erhöht wird. Hierdurch wird ein unbeabsichtigtes Verdrehen des Montagerings 50 und letztendlich der gesamten Leuchte gegenüber der Decke verhindert. A special feature in the present case is that the support elements 57 are provided with a friction-increasing element 58 or a coating. It may be, for example, a rubber ring or a corresponding plugged element made of rubber or plastic, by which the friction with the surface of the ceiling is significantly increased. As a result, an unintentional rotation of the mounting ring 50 and ultimately the entire lamp is prevented from the ceiling.
Nach dem Fixieren des Montagrings 50 in der Deckenöffnung wird wie bereits erwähnt die eigentliche Leuchteneinheit montiert. Diese besteht im vorliegenden Fall zum einen aus einem Basiskörper sowie zum anderen aus einem domförmigen Reflektor. Wie später noch ausführlich erläutert, wird hierdurch eine modulartige Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Leuchte geschaffen, die es ermöglicht, Reflektoren unterschiedlicher Art zu verwenden und ferner auch in einfacher Weise optische Elemente zur Beeinflussung der Lichtabgabe zu nutzen. After fixing the mounting ring 50 in the ceiling opening the actual lighting unit is mounted as already mentioned. In the present case, this consists on the one hand of a base body and on the other hand of a dome-shaped reflector. As will be explained in detail later, a modular design of the luminaire according to the invention is thereby created, which makes it possible to use reflectors of different types and also to use optical elements for influencing the light output in a simple manner.
Die einzelnen Komponenten dieser zwei Baueinheiten der Leuchte können The individual components of these two building units of the luminaire can
insbesondere auch der Explosionsdarstellung von Figur 4 entnommen werden. Der Basiskörper wird hierbei durch einen zylinderartigen Kühlkörper 10 gebildet, der insbesondere der Halterung und Kühlung der Lichtquelle dient. Im vorliegenden Fall ist die Lichtquelle insbesondere durch ein LED-Modul 15 gebildet, welches mehrere auf einer Platine angeordnete LEDs aufweist. Diese Platine 15 ist in einer Vertiefung des Kühlkörpers 10 angeordnet und vorzugsweise unmittelbar auf dem Kühlkörper befestigt, um eine gute Wärmeübertragung zu ermöglichen. Der Kühlkörper 10, der eine Vielzahl von Kühllamellen 11 aufweist, die sich von einem massiven in particular, the exploded view of Figure 4 are removed. The base body is in this case formed by a cylinder-like heat sink 10, which serves in particular to support and cool the light source. In the present case, the light source is formed in particular by an LED module 15, which has a plurality of LEDs arranged on a circuit board. This board 15 is disposed in a recess of the heat sink 10 and preferably attached directly to the heat sink to allow a good heat transfer. The heat sink 10, which has a plurality of cooling fins 11, extending from a solid
Zentralbereich 12 zur Seite erstrecken, ist hierzu an einer Seite mit einer sich leicht verjüngenden Vertiefung ausgebildet, an deren Boden die Auflagefläche für die LED- Platine gebildet ist. Innerhalb dieser Vertiefung werden dann ferner noch ein domförmiges Kunststoffelement 17 sowie ein domförmiger Kopfreflektor 18 angeordnet. Extend central region 12 to the side, this is formed on one side with a slightly tapered recess, at the bottom of the support surface is formed for the LED board. Within this recess, a dome-shaped plastic element 17 and a dome-shaped head reflector 18 are then also arranged.
Der Kopfreflektor 18, der in weiteren Ansichten in den Figuren 7a und 7b dargestellt ist, dient hierbei dazu, das von den LEDs in einem großen Raumbereich abgestrahlte Licht effektiv zur Unterseite zu richten. Vorzugsweise besteht dieser Kopfreflektor 18 aus einem verhältnismäßig flexiblen Kunststoffmaterial, welches in die entsprechende Form tiefgezogen wurde. Das an der Rückseite befindliche Kunststoffteil 17, dessen Form im Wesentlichen der Form des Kopfreflektors 18 entspricht, bildet hierbei eine Stütze für den Reflektor 18. The head reflector 18, which is shown in further views in FIGS. 7a and 7b, serves here to effectively direct the light emitted by the LEDs in a large spatial area to the underside. Preferably, this head reflector 18 consists of a relatively flexible plastic material, which has been deep-drawn into the appropriate shape. The plastic part 17 located on the rear side, the shape of which corresponds essentially to the shape of the head reflector 18, forms a support for the reflector 18.
Beide Elemente, also Kunststoffteil 17 und Kopfreflektor 18 werden mit Hilfe eines Halterings 20 an dem Kühlkörper 10 fixiert. Der Haltering 20 selbst wird mit Hilfe von Schrauben 21 an dem Kühlkörper 10 angeschraubt. Figuren 8a und 8b zeigen weitere Ansichten dieses Halterings 20, der vorzugsweise aus Kunststoffmaterial gebildet ist und im auf den Kühlkörper 10 aufgeschraubten Zustand das Kunststoffteil 17 mit dem Kopfreflektor 18 klemmend fixiert. Both elements, ie plastic part 17 and head reflector 18 are fixed by means of a retaining ring 20 on the heat sink 10. The retaining ring 20 itself is screwed by means of screws 21 to the heat sink 10. Figures 8a and 8b show further views of this retaining ring 20, which is preferably formed of plastic material and fixed in the screwed on the heat sink 10, the plastic part 17 with the head reflector 18 by clamping.
Eine weitere wesentliche Funktion des Halterings 20 besteht darin, eine lösbare Verbindung für den eigentlichen domförmigen Reflektor 25 der Leuchte 1 zu schaffen. Hierfür ist insbesondere eine Bajonettverbindung zwischen Haltering 20 und Reflektor 25 vorgesehen. Der Reflektor, der in den Figuren 9a und 9b näher dargestellt ist, weist hierzu an der Außenseite der Reflektorwand drei Haken 26 auf, welche mit Another essential function of the retaining ring 20 is to provide a releasable connection for the actual dome-shaped reflector 25 of the lamp 1. For this purpose, in particular a bayonet connection between the retaining ring 20 and reflector 25 is provided. The reflector, which is shown in more detail in Figures 9a and 9b, this has on the outside of the reflector wall three hooks 26, which with
entsprechenden Führungsvorsprüngen 22 an dem Haltering 20 eine corresponding guide projections 22 on the retaining ring 20 a
Bajonettverbindung bilden. Diese ermöglicht ein einfaches und schnelles Befestigen des Reflektors 25 an dem Kühlkörper 10, wobei alternativ hierzu auch eine Make bayonet connection. This allows a simple and fast fastening of the reflector 25 to the heat sink 10, alternatively, a also
Schraub Verbindung denkbar wäre. Dabei ist die Verbindung - im vorliegenden Fall also die Bajonettverbindung - zwischen dem Haltering 20 und dem Reflektor 25 derart ausgebildet, dass beim Befestigen des Reflektors 25 optische Elemente zur Beeinflussung der Lichtabgabe eingefügt und fixiert werden können. Im dargestellten Ausfuhrungsbeispiel soll insbesondere eine Vergleichmäßigung der Lichtabgabe erzielt werden bzw. es ist gewünscht, dass die einzelnen LEDs der LED-Platine nicht mehr individuell wahrnehmbar sind. Hierfür soll im oberen Bereich des Reflektors 25 eine optische Einheit bestehend aus einer Kunststoffscheibe 30 sowie einer davor angeordneten lichtstreuenden Folie montiert werden. Beide Elemente können - wie nachfolgend gezeigt - nunmehr vor dem Fixieren des Reflektors 25 an dem Haltering 20 in den Ring 20 eingelegt werden. Wird anschließend der Reflektor 25 mittels der Screw connection would be conceivable. In this case, the connection - in the present case, the bayonet connection - between the retaining ring 20 and the reflector 25 is formed such that when attaching the reflector 25 optical elements can be inserted and fixed to influence the light output. In the illustrated embodiment, in particular a homogenization of the light output is to be achieved or it is desired that the individual LEDs of the LED board are no longer individually perceptible. For this purpose, in the upper region of the reflector 25, an optical unit consisting of a plastic disk 30 and a light-scattering film arranged in front of it is mounted. Both elements can - as shown below - now be inserted before fixing the reflector 25 to the retaining ring 20 in the ring 20. Is then the reflector 25 by means of
Bajonettverbindung fixiert, so führt dies gleichzeitig auch zu einer Fixierung der optischen Elemente 30, 31. Aus dem zuvor beschriebenen Zusammenwirken der verschiedenen Komponenten der erfindungsgemäßen Leuchte ergibt sich nunmehr folgende Vorgehensweise beim Zusammenfügen bzw. Montieren. Fixed bayonet connection, this leads at the same time to a fixation of the optical elements 30, 31. From the above-described interaction of the various components of the lamp according to the invention now follows the following procedure when assembling or mounting.
Zunächst werden auf den Kühlkörper 10 mit dem daran befestigten LED-Modul das Kunststoffteil 17 und der Kopfreflektor 18 aufgesetzt. Beide Elemente werden dann mit Hilfe des Halterings 20, der durch die Schrauben 21 auf den Kühlkörper 10 aufgeschraubt wird, fixiert, so dass sich die in Figur 5 dargestellte Anordnung ergibt. Im darauffolgenden Schritt werden dann die optischen Elemente, also die Streufolie 31 und die Kunststoffscheibe 30 in den Haltering 20 eingelegt. Anschließend wird der Reflektor 25 auf den Haltering 20 aufgesetzt und verdreht, um über die First, the plastic part 17 and the head reflector 18 are placed on the heat sink 10 with the attached LED module. Both elements are then fixed by means of the retaining ring 20, which is screwed by the screws 21 onto the heat sink 10, so that the arrangement shown in Figure 5 results. In the subsequent step, the optical elements, that is, the scattering film 31 and the plastic disk 30 are then inserted into the retaining ring 20. Subsequently, the reflector 25 is placed on the retaining ring 20 and rotated to over the
Bajonettverbindung eine Arretierung zu erzielen. Bayonet connection to achieve a lock.
Die sich hierbei ergebende und in Figur 6 dargestellte Baueinheit bestehend aus Kühlkörper 10 und Reflektor 25 wird dann wie anfangs beschrieben an dem The resulting assembly shown in Figure 6 consisting of heat sink 10 and reflector 25 is then as described initially on the
Montagering 50 befestigt. Auch hier erfolgt eine Verbindung wiederum mit Hilfe einer Bajonettverriegelung, wofür der Reflektor 25 an seiner Außenseite weitere Mounting ring 50 attached. Again, a connection is again using a bayonet, for which the reflector 25 on its outside more
vorstehende Zapfen 27 aufweist, die mit den entsprechenden Führungsbahnen 52 an dem Montagering zusammenwirken. Der Reflektor 25 stellt also das Bindeglied zwischen Montagering 50 und Kühlkörper 10 dar. projecting pins 27 which cooperate with the corresponding guideways 52 on the mounting ring. The reflector 25 thus represents the link between mounting ring 50 and heat sink 10.
Letztendlich ergibt sich dann die in den Figuren 1 und 2 in perspektivischen Ansichten sowie in den Figur 3a bis 3c in Schnittdarstellungen gezeigte Anordnung. Hierbei ist klar erkennbar, dass die optischen Elemente bestehend aus Kunststoffscheibe 30 und Streufolie 31 zwischen dem Reflektor 25 und dem mit Hilfe des Halterings 20 fixierten Kopfreflektor 18 eingeklemmt werden. In dem Bereich zwischen LED-Modul 15 und Streufolie 31 wird hierdurch eine sogenannte Lichtkammer 60 gebildet, in der eine Vermischung bzw. Umlenkung der Lichtstrahlen derart erfolgt, dass eine möglichst gleichmäßig hell leuchtende Lichtabgabe erzielt wird. Auch die Nutzung mehrerer verschiedenfarbiger LEDs zum Erzeugen von Licht in einer bestimmten Mischfarbe oder einer gewünschten Farbtemperatur wäre denkbar. Finally, the arrangement shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in perspective views as well as in the sectional views in FIGS. 3a to 3c are shown. It can be clearly seen that the optical elements consisting of plastic disk 30 and scattering film 31 between the reflector 25 and fixed by means of the retaining ring 20 Head reflector 18 are clamped. In the area between LED module 15 and scattering film 31, a so-called light chamber 60 is thereby formed, in which a mixing or deflection of the light beams takes place in such a way that a light output that is as bright as possible is achieved. It would also be conceivable to use a plurality of differently colored LEDs for producing light in a specific mixed color or a desired color temperature.
Das zuvor beschriebene erfindungsgemäße Konzept, nämlich die optischen Elemente zur Beeinflussung der Lichtabgabe zwischen Kopfrefiektor und Domrefiektor einzuklemmen, ist nicht auf die dargestellten scheibenartigen optischen Elemente beschränkt. Denkbar wäre beispielsweise auch, Leuchtenraster oder vergleichbare Elemente in entsprechender Weise anzuordnen. Ferner könnten im Falle The inventive concept described above, namely to clamp the optical elements for influencing the light output between the head reflector and the domrefector, is not limited to the disk-like optical elements shown. It would also be conceivable, for example, to arrange luminaire screens or comparable elements in a corresponding manner. Furthermore, in the case
scheibenartiger Elemente auch lichtbeeinfiussende Elemente mit Prismenstrukturen oder dergleichen eingesetzt werden. disk-like elements and lichtbeeinfiussende elements are used with prismatic structures or the like.
Desweitern eröffnet die modulartige Bauweise der erfindungsgemäßen Leuchte die Möglichkeit, in einfacher Weise einen Wechsel des Reflektors vorzunehmen. Furthermore, the modular design of the luminaire according to the invention opens up the possibility of easily changing the reflector.
Beispielhaft sind in den Figuren 10 bis 12 weitere Ausführungsbeispiele By way of example, further exemplary embodiments are shown in FIGS. 10 to 12
erfindungsgemäßer Einbauleuchten dargestellt, bei denen jeweils unterschiedliche Reflektoren verwendet wurden. Die Figuren zeigen, dass durch den Austausch derAccording to the invention recessed luminaires shown in which each different reflectors were used. The figures show that by replacing the
Reflektoren das Erscheinungsbild der Leuchte und auch deren Lichtabgabe beeinfiusst werden kann. So ist bei der Variante der Figuren 10a bis 10c der Reflektor 25 höher ausgestaltet, wodurch sich eine stärker gebündelte Lichtabgabe zur Unterseite hin ergibt. Die Varianten der Figuren 11 und 12 entsprechen dem ersten und zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel, allerdings weist hier der Reflektor 25 an der Unterseite keinen umlaufenden Rahmen auf. Bei dieser sog. rahmenlosen Variante ist auch der Reflectors the appearance of the lamp and also their light output can be afffiusst. Thus, in the variant of FIGS. 10a to 10c, the reflector 25 is designed to be higher, resulting in a more concentrated light output towards the underside. The variants of FIGS. 11 and 12 correspond to the first and second embodiments, but here the reflector 25 has no peripheral frame on the underside. In this so-called frameless variant is also the
Montagering etwas anders gestaltet, da er nun entweder nach Montage verputzt wird oder von der Oberseite her an der Decke befestigt wird. Das Zusammenfügen und Montieren der Leuchte erfolgt allerdings in sämtlichen Beispielen in gleicher Weise, so dass letztendlich unterschiedlich ausgestaltete Einbauleuchten realisiert werden können. Bei all diesen Varianten besteht der oben beschriebene Vorteil der Möglichkeit, in einfacher Weise optische Elemente zum Beeinflussen die Lichtabgabe anordnen zu können. Mounting ring designed a little differently, since it is now either plastered after installation or is attached to the ceiling from the top. However, the assembly and assembly of the luminaire takes place in the same way in all the examples, so that finally differently designed recessed luminaires can be realized. In all these variants, the advantage described above of the possibility of being able to easily arrange optical elements for influencing the light output.
