Definitions

  • the subject of the invention relates to a luminaire, e.g. a recessed ceiling or luminaire, with a housing in which a reflector and a light source are arranged.
  • Reflectors are usually made in the prior art of aluminum or other material which is reflective or matt reflective coated. To achieve the desired light control, the reflector surface is brought into a desired shape, usually in a stamping bending process.
  • the reflectors are usually suitable for a type of lamp and can not be replaced after the final assembly of the lamp or only with considerable effort.
  • the prefabricated reflectors have the disadvantage that they require a lot of space due to their three-dimensional shape during storage and transport.
  • US 2005/0259413 A1 discloses a lighting device with a reflector.
  • the reflector is formed by a flexible material, for example by a silver or aluminum coated polyester film or polycarbonate film.
  • US 5,988,836 discloses a luminaire with fluorescent lamps and a flexible reflector.
  • the reflector is held in position in a pair of channels by the residual stress, so that its shape can be adjusted by changing the length.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a luminaire of the type mentioned above, which have an easier to handle assembly and disassembly reflector.
  • a luminaire in particular luminaire for lighting wedge, interior light or outdoor light, for example ceiling recessed or surface-mounted luminaire, pendant luminaire, floor or wall luminaire, with a housing having at least two opposite walls, at least one light source and a reflector, the Viewed from a light exit side of the lamp behind the light source, wherein the reflector is formed of a flexible reflector flat material, which is flat in the de-energized state, and is clamped between the two walls, so that a curvature of the reflector in a cross section perpendicular to the side walls is formed by an internal stress of the reflector sheet to deflect a portion of the light emitted from the lamp, wherein at least one edge of the reflector sheet, which along a extending said walls, two or more tabs are formed, which are inserted in two or more sections in the wall in question.
  • the use of flexible reflector sheet material makes the reflector easy to assemble and disassemble.
  • the shape of the reflector required for light guidance can be achieved solely by clamping the reflector sheet between two walls of the housing, because the reflector material bends by itself due to its residual stress.
  • the curvature of the reflector surface can be defined by the choice of the distances between the opposite walls and optionally further contact points of the reflector within the housing.
  • This type of luminaire is particularly suitable for flat luminaire designs, e.g. Recessed ceiling or surface mounted luminaires, which have a relatively large reflector with a comparatively small curvature with respect to the light exit surface.
  • the reflector sheet material has at least one edge extending along one of the walls, two or more tabs, which are inserted in two or more sections of the wall in question.
  • the tab may in particular have a rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal or semicircular shape.
  • at least one side is provided with a slope for easy insertion into the cutout.
  • the cutouts in the respective wall preferably have a width which corresponds to the width of the tab directly on the edge of the reflector material. As a result, the tab is positively on the neck.
  • more than two tabs and cutouts are provided to prevent sagging of the reflector in the areas between the tabs along the wall.
  • the cut-outs in the wall have a dimension perpendicular to the adjacent edge of the reflector, which allows the tab to slide back against the residual stress of the reflector material and disengage the tab from the cut-outs.
  • the tab lies with the surface of the reflector flat material facing the luminous means at an edge of the reflector
  • the tab By pushing back the tab against the residual stress, the tab can be solved under elastic deformation of the reflector from the neck.
  • the dimensions of the cutouts perpendicular to the edge are greater than finger widths, ie more than about 20 mm, to allow for the retraction of the tab, a penetration of the cutout, so that the tab can be disengaged at its outer edge with a finger through the cutout ,
  • the reflector can be removed from the housing without tools.
  • the cutout In the assembled state of the reflector, however, the cutout is not visible, because it is behind the reflector as seen from the light exit side.
  • a portion of the reflector rests against a bottom wall of the housing.
  • the bottom wall can connect the two walls, between which the reflector is clamped.
  • the curvature is determined by the position of the reflector edges, which bear against the walls, and the further support on the reflector base.
  • the support on the reflector base is preferably flat in order to give the adjoining region of the reflector the same shape as the housing base.
  • the floor can be level.
  • the at least one luminous means is arranged in the area of the luminaire opposite the support of the reflector.
  • ballasts arranged in space regions between the housing and the reflector resources of the lamp.
  • the lamp comprises lighting means in the form of one or more, preferably parallel, tubular lamps, e.g. Fluorescent lamps, on.
  • the lamps are arranged with their longitudinal extent preferably parallel to the walls between which the reflector is clamped, because along this direction the reflector is rectilinear.
  • Preferred lamps further include LEDs or OLEDs, e.g. arranged at the bottom of the housing.
  • the reflector may end adjacent to the LEDs or OLEDs and there at an intermediate wall, e.g. a step, be attached.
  • a foamed PET material microwave polyethylene terephthalate
  • These materials have an elasticity that allows a uniform curvature in the clamped state of the reflector.
  • the thickness of the reflector material is preferably between 0.5 mm and 1.5 mm.
  • the luminaire according to the invention has a flat housing.
  • These lights are particularly suitable as ceiling lights for mounting on or in the ceiling.
  • a luminaire is shown according to an embodiment of the invention in a cross section, wherein the light exit side 2 of the luminaire facing upward.
  • the luminaire has a box-shaped housing 4, which has a height to width ratio of about 7:60.
  • the longitudinal sides of the luminaire are bounded by side walls 6, which in the preferred embodiment simultaneously serve as walls for holding a reflector 8.
  • the reflector 8 is made of foamed PET, which, when no voltage is applied, is flat.
  • the reflector 8 is clamped between the walls 6 such that it assumes a concave curvature in the cross-sectional plane perpendicular to the walls 6. In this case, a region of the reflector 8 rests on a bottom wall 10 of the housing 4 in the middle region. In this area, the reflector is flat.
  • the longitudinal extension of the fluorescent tubes is perpendicular to the image plane of the FIG. 1 , ie parallel to the walls 6.
  • the attachment of the reflector 8 is provided on the side walls 6.
  • tabs 16 are provided with a rectangular cross-section.
  • the tab 16 are made of the same material as the reflector in one piece with it.
  • Each tab 16 is inserted in a cutout 18 in the housing side wall 6 and abuts against the edge of the cutout 18 facing the light exit surface. Due to the residual stress of the reflector flat material, the tab 16 is pressed toward the edge of the cutout 18 facing the light exit side 2.
  • the cutout 18 points in a direction perpendicular to the edge 14 (ie in the vertical of the Figures 1 and 2 ) has a dimension greater than about 20 mm.
  • FIG. 3 is shown in perspective view a side wall 6 over the entire length of the lamp.
  • the reflector has a corresponding number of tabs 16.
  • the multiple attachment points of the reflector bending of the reflector along the edge 14 is prevented.
  • the reflector extends in a straight line parallel to the fluorescent tubes, whereby a uniform geometry in each cross section perpendicular to the walls 6 is achieved.
  • ballast 20 is arranged in the illustrated embodiment. This area is not visible from the outside so that it can be used for electrical equipment of the luminaire. Although the area is not visible, the area is still easily accessible by removing the reflector.
  • the walls 6 can also be provided as intermediate walls within a luminaire housing.
  • two or more reflectors can be arranged in the manner shown next to each other between each outer wall and an intermediate wall or two partitions.
