  • DE 20 2008 012 394 U1 describes an LED lamp, which is composed of a plurality of lighting modules, each having a housing composed.
  • the lighting modules each receive LEDs as lighting and the associated control electronics.
  • the module housings are connected to each other via tabs.
  • For attachment to a post is a holding element to which both sides of the module housing are hinged by means of tabs.
  • the electrical supply of the lighting modules via cable arranged in a cable channel.
  • US 2003/0231491 A1 shows a clamp light, which is hinged hinged to a spring clip. This allows the clamp to table, board or the like. be attached. The light emission direction can be adjusted by pivoting the actual lamp relative to the clamping foot.
  • DE 199 17 283 A1 describes a luminaire with a base body, which receives the electrical components intended for driving bulbs. On the base body one or two wing-like bulb receptacles are rigidly mounted.
  • DE 20 2010 016 068 U1 shows an LED outdoor light with two wings, which are adjustably attached to a mast. Each wing carries its own sub-housing for receiving electrical components.
  • DE 103 43 533 A1 describes a lamp with a housing in which a ballast is arranged. On the housing is a wing profile-like lamp housing by means of a bolt which forms a plain bearing with a plain bearing bearing pivotally mounted. In order to fix the position of the lamp housing relative to the housing 10, the two housings have interlocking detents 50, 62.
  • US 4,143,413 shows a hinge for pivotally mounting a lamp on a post.
  • the swivel joint has a mounting foot and a swivel-mounted receptacle for a pipe as attachment for a signaling device, such as a beacon.
  • DE 10 2010 014 371 A1 describes a luminaire for attachment to a mast.
  • the lamp has a lamp head and a lamp stand, which are mutually pivotable.
  • GB 2469284 A discloses an outdoor light for attachment to a lamppost or wall.
  • the outdoor light has a housing on which a light module is pivotally mounted.
  • the storage between the housing and the light module is effected by an axis which passes through projections of the housing and the light module. For fixing the projections on the axis can be braced against each other.
  • US 2011/0170288 discloses a luminaire with a central body which can be screwed into a conventional E27 socket. On the central body, a plate is attached, which serves as a carrier for four lamp housing. The lamp housing are pivotally attached to the plate via hinges. By locking lugs preferred angular ranges are given.
  • An outdoor luminaire according to the invention for the illumination of outdoor facilities has a luminaire housing, which surrounds electrical components. These electrical components are in the use of bulbs in the form of LEDs in particular ballasts that are costly to buy. Furthermore, at least one light module with a module housing, which surrounds at least one light source, is provided for the exterior light. A terminal plate is provided in the module housing which is transparent to allow light generated by the lamp to pass therethrough. In other words, a separation between a lamp housing and a module housing is made in an outdoor lamp according to the invention, wherein the expensive and costly electrical components are provided in the lamp housing, while at least the bulbs are arranged in the module housing.
  • An outdoor lamp according to the invention is characterized in that the module housing is mounted on the lamp housing via a bearing device and an electrical connection between the at least one lamp and the electrical components is provided to supply the lamps with power.
  • the electrical interface ie the electrical connection
  • the electrical interface can be designed, for example, as a cable.
  • other transmission options for energy are conceivable, such as by induction coupling, sliding contacts or a so-called Near Field Communication (NFC).
  • NFC Near Field Communication
  • non-contact transmissions of the electrical connections have an advantage, since no plug connection is necessary.
  • the bearing device module housing and lamp housing Due to the mechanical coupling in the form of the bearing device module housing and lamp housing are separated. Accordingly, there are two different housings for the two different components, namely the bulbs and the electrical components.
  • the electrical components can thus be protected much better than is the case with the light source.
  • the luminaire housing must not be opened, as was the case with known outdoor lights. Rather, it is sufficient if the module housing is opened. This makes it possible for the electrical components to be irreversibly sealed and, accordingly, for the seal to meet a high degree of safety.
  • an exchange of the entire light module can be done in addition to the bulbs, so that in a cost effective and above all simple way an exchange of individual bulbs can be omitted.
  • the inventive design of an outdoor lamp has the advantage that a thermal decoupling of the electrical components from the light sources and vice versa takes place. Temperature influences that emanate from electrical components on the bulbs and vice versa are minimized or eliminated in this way. If, for example, an electrical component becomes warm during operation of the outdoor lamp, this has hitherto led to the entire interior of a lamp housing having warmed up. This increased temperature could cause the bulbs were impaired in terms of their life. The same applied vice versa, when the bulbs in operation have generated heat which in turn has been detrimental to electrical components. Due to the thermal decoupling in the embodiment according to the present invention, it is possible to disregard the heat influence on the respective other components, ie the electrical components or the lighting means, in the selection of the respective component. This can be created for the particular application ideal selection conditions for the light source, as well as for the electrical components. For example, an ideal choice may be made for minimizing the price or for improving and optimizing the illumination. Even a lower power consumption can be the goal of such optimization.
  • the storage of the module housing can be both reversible, as well as irreversible.
  • the entire light module can be replaced, as has already been explained in detail above.
  • a single light module is particularly easy to construct.
  • such a light module has a board receptacle in which a circuit board with a multiplicity of light sources is arranged.
  • the board receptacle is provided with a cover that covers the board receptacle and arranged therein board. This cover is preferably liquid-tight. Thus, the board is protected from the weather.
  • a cable passage or a cable bushing is provided through which the electrical connection can take place to the bulbs.
  • the luminaire housing in an outdoor luminaire according to the invention is preferably equipped with a fastening section, which is designed for fastening to a holder, in particular a mast.
  • a fastening section which is designed for fastening to a holder, in particular a mast.
  • the bearing device itself is generally the storage of the module housing on the lamp housing. This means that the module housing is statically supported on the luminaire housing.
  • the bearing device is the possibility of a statically determined mounting of the module housing on the luminaire housing.
  • An outdoor lamp according to the invention can be further developed in that the bearing device is designed for an angular adjustment of the module housing relative to the lamp housing.
  • Such an angular adjustment can be adjusted so to speak, the angle of the lamp relative to the lamp housing and thus also relative to a connection to a holder.
  • the angular adjustment makes it possible to adjust the illumination or the direction of the illumination by means of an outdoor lamp according to the invention. Due to the angular adjustment one and the same outdoor light can be used for a variety of Ausleuchtsituationen so that the number of pieces for the production of an outdoor lamp according to the invention for a variety of situations is correspondingly larger. This reduces the cost of a single outdoor lamp according to the present invention.
  • the angular adjustment can take place during assembly. In particular, during assembly of the bearing device, the corresponding angular adjustment can be performed.
  • An outdoor lamp according to the invention is further developed in particular to the effect that the bearing device is designed for a tool-free angular adjustment of the module housing relative to the lamp housing.
  • This allows an even easier handling of the storage device.
  • a particularly simple and quick adjustability on site when mounting the outdoor light in the outdoor facilities is possible.
  • a setting in the workshop is no longer necessary in this embodiment.
  • the tool-free angled adjustment takes place, for example, by means of clamping means, latching means or other devices which serve within the bearing device, an angular adjustment to allow and at the same time in the appropriately selected angled orientation to form the bearing device as a statically determined storage of the module housing on the lamp housing.
  • the bearing device has mutually corresponding locking lugs, which are respectively arranged on the module housing and the lamp housing and mutually engaging the module housing to the lamp housing at a defined angle to each other.
  • the angular adjustment is carried out in this way.
  • at least one locking lug on the lamp housing and at least one latching lug formed on the module housing, said corresponding latching noses together at least partially form the bearing device.
  • the bearing device is thus formed as a functional feature both by the module housing, as well as together with the lamp housing.
  • the mutually corresponding locking lugs each form stops or abutment surfaces, which engage with each other to perform the statically determined storage of the module housing on the lamp housing.
  • the angle can be provided by selecting the correspondence of individual locking lugs, which should be adjustable.
  • the individual locking lugs and / or the bearing device are in particular provided symmetrically, so that a statically determined storage is produced with high mechanical stability. If, for example, a cable bushing is provided in the middle between the luminaire housing and the module housing, then in the case of a symmetrical design of the latching lugs they can be arranged to the left and right of the cable bushing.
  • the bearing device has at least one stop which defines a maximum angular adjustment of the module housing relative to the lamp housing.
  • a stop defines, for example, plus / minus 15 °, so that in a neutral starting position, which is substantially parallel to the luminaire housing of the outdoor light, 15 ° can be pivoted upwards and 15 ° downwards.
  • This stop is also used, in the event that the locking lugs would break off over material aging, to prevent complete dropping of the light module.
  • This is generated by the additional stop a further assurance for the operability of an outdoor lamp according to the invention.
  • such stops may be formed as the cooperation of additional surfaces of the two housings. Of course, these attacks can also be part of the storage device.
  • the angular adjustment allows complete folding of the module housing relative to the lamp housing such that the outdoor lamp has reduced external dimensions in this state.
  • a complete folding of the module housing relative to the lamp housing generates a transport state in which the transport to the mounting point can be made in particularly compact dimensions .. This reduces the transport costs, as well as the packaging costs for an outdoor lamp according to the invention.
  • the cover disk in the case of an outdoor luminaire according to the invention, it is possible for the cover disk to have at least one optical system for influencing the beam path of the light generated by the at least one luminous means through the Has cover lens through.
  • the cover plate itself is at least partially formed as an optical system.
  • An optical system is for example a lens or a reflector.
  • Such an optical system is preferably provided in each case for each luminous means.
  • the module housing and / or the luminaire housing are designed to be liquid-tight in an outdoor luminaire according to the invention.
  • This liquid-tight training prevents the ingress of water to the lamp and / or to the electrical and electrical components.
  • this may be an irreversible seal, which brings with it an increased degree of sealing.
  • Such irreversible seal can also serve for the mechanical fixing of individual housing parts to each other.
  • the irreversible tightness is possible in an outdoor lamp according to the invention in that the module housing and the lamp housing are separated from each other. In this way, a low-cost and relatively compact small module in the form of the light module can be replaced without affecting the entire outdoor lamp and the expensive components such as the lamp housing and the electrical components contained therein.
  • FIG. 1 schematically shows an embodiment of an outdoor lamp 10 according to the invention. This is connected via a mounting portion with a holder 100, here in the form of a mast.
  • the outdoor light 10 is used to illuminate outdoor facilities. It has two separate units.

  • a cover plate 42 as for example as a cover plate 42 in the FIGS. 4a and 4b can be seen.
  • FIG. 1 it will be appreciated that the two housings, namely the luminaire housing 20 and the module housing 40, are arranged separately from one another. There is no thermal coupling between these two housings. Thus, the components contained, namely the electrical components in the lamp housing 20 and the lamps 32 in the module housing 40 are thermally decoupled from each other. Between these two housings 20 and 40 there is an electrical connection 60, as for example the FIG. 3 can be seen.
  • FIG. 3 In a schematic perspective, the light module 30 is shown during the arrangement in the storage device 50. Only cut the case 20 is shown here.
