Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Leuchte zur Wand- und/oder Deckenmontage, mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Ferner betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein Lichtband, das zumindest zwei derartige Leuchten aufweist.The present invention relates to a lamp for wall and / or ceiling mounting, with the features of claim 1. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a light strip, which has at least two such lights.

Leuchten, die für die Herstellung eines Lichtbands geeignet sind, besitzen in der Regel eine geradlinige Form, wodurch sich die Leuchten linienartig bzw. bandartig aneinander reihen lassen, so dass sie stirnseitig aneinander stoßen. Lampen, die sich für derartige geradlinige Leuchten eignen, können zweckmäßig ebenfalls eine geradlinige Form besitzen und können zweckmäßig stabförmig oder rohrförmig gestaltet sein. Allgemein bekannt sind Leuchtstoffröhren, die einen Glaszylinder besitzen, der ein Leuchtstoffgas enthält und der an seinen axialen Enden elektrische Anschlüsse aufweist. Die zugehörigen Leuchten besitzen Halterungen mit integrierten elektrischen Kontakten, in welche die Leuchtstoffröhren eingesetzt werden, derart, dass sich die Halterungen außen an den Längsenden der jeweiligen Leuchtstoffröhre befinden.Luminaires, which are suitable for the production of a light band, usually have a rectilinear shape, whereby the lights can line up like a line or band, so that they abut each other frontally. Lamps that are suitable for such rectilinear luminaires may also have a rectilinear shape and may conveniently be designed rod-shaped or tubular. Fluorescent tubes are generally known which have a glass cylinder which contains a phosphor gas and which has electrical connections at its axial ends. The associated lights have brackets with integrated electrical contacts, in which the fluorescent tubes are used, such that the brackets are located on the outside of the longitudinal ends of the respective fluorescent tube.

Mit dem Ziel, elektrische Energie einzusparen, ist es bekannt, derartige Leuchtstoffröhren durch LED-Röhren zu ersetzen, also durch Lampen, bei denen in einem für das abzustrahlende Licht transparenten Rohrkörper eine Vielzahl von LEDs (LED für Licht emittierende Diode) untergebracht sind. Damit diese LED-Röhren anstelle von herkömmlichen Leuchtstoffröhren in herkömmlichen Leuchten verwendet werden können, ist in die jeweilige LED-Röhre eine hierzu erforderliche Leistungselektronik integriert, beispielsweise um eine Netzspannung auf eine von den LEDs benötigte Spannung zu wandeln.With the aim of saving electrical energy, it is known to replace such fluorescent tubes with LED tubes, that is, by lamps in which a plurality of LEDs (LED for light-emitting diode) are housed in a transparent tube body for the light to be emitted. So that these LED tubes can be used in place of conventional fluorescent tubes in conventional lights, a power electronics required for this purpose is integrated into the respective LED tube, for example to convert a mains voltage to a voltage required by the LEDs.

Die LED-Röhren werden dadurch vergleichsweise schwer und teuer. Ferner erzeugen LEDs vergleichsweise viel Wärme, wodurch im Rohrkörper vergleichsweise hohe Temperaturen erreicht werden, was die Lebensdauer der LEDs sowie der Leistungselektronik reduziert. Das Gewicht der LED-Röhren erschwert deren sichere Halterung an bzw. in einer Leuchte. Insbesondere kann es erforderlich seln, ein Leuchtengehäuse im Bereich der stirnseitigen Halterungen zu verstärken.The LED tubes are relatively heavy and expensive. Furthermore, LEDs generate comparatively much heat, whereby comparatively high temperatures are achieved in the tubular body, which extends the life of the LEDs as well the power electronics reduced. The weight of the LED tubes makes their secure mounting on or in a luminaire difficult. In particular, it may be necessary to reinforce a luminaire housing in the region of the end-side brackets.

Eine gattungsgemäße Leuchte ist beispielsweise aus der US 2011/0297971 A1 bekannt. Sie umfasst ein Leuchtengehäuse, das ein geradliniges Tragprofil zur Wand- und/oder Deckenmontage aufweist, eine geradlinige Lampe, die mehrere LEDs aufweist, eine Halteeinrichtung zum Befestigen der jeweiligen Lampe am Leuchtengehäuse und eine Leistungselektronik zur Stromversorgung der wenigstens einen Lampe. Bei der bekannten Leuchte ist die Leistungselektronik in die Lampe integriert. Ferner ist bei der bekannten Leuchte die Halteeinrichtung zum Festlegen der Lampe am Tragprofil angeordnet.A generic lamp is for example from the US 2011/0297971 A1 known. It comprises a luminaire housing which has a rectilinear support profile for wall and / or ceiling mounting, a rectilinear lamp which has a plurality of LEDs, a holding device for fastening the respective lamp to the luminaire housing and power electronics for the power supply of the at least one lamp. In the known luminaire, the power electronics are integrated in the lamp. Furthermore, the holding device for fixing the lamp is arranged on the support profile in the known lamp.

Die vorliegende Erfindung beschäftigt sich mit dem Problem, für eine Lampe bzw. für eine Leuchte der eingangs genannten Art eine verbesserte Ausführungsform anzugeben, die sich insbesondere durch eine erhöhte Lebensdauer der Lampe und/oder durch eine vereinfachte Halterung zwischen Lampe und Leuchtengehäuse auszeichnet.The present invention is concerned with the problem of providing for a lamp or for a lamp of the type mentioned in an improved embodiment, which is characterized in particular by an increased life of the lamp and / or by a simplified mounting between the lamp and the lamp housing.

Dieses Problem wird bei der vorliegenden Erfindung durch den Gegenstand des unabhängigen Anspruchs gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This problem is solved in the present invention by the subject-matter of the independent claim. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

Die Erfindung beruht dabei auf dem allgemeinen Gedanken, bei einer Leuchte, die ein Leuchtengehäuse zur Wand- und/oder Deckenmontage sowie zumindest eine geradlinige, mehrere LEDs aufweisende Lampe umfasst, zumindest eine Halteeinrichtung und wenigstens eine Leistungselektronik vorzusehen, wobei die Halteeinrichtung zum Befestigen der jeweiligen Lampe am Leuchtengehäuse dient, während die Leistungselektronik außerhalb der jeweiligen Lampe am bzw. im Leuchtengehäuse angeordnet ist. Durch die Trennung von Lampe und Leistungselektronik lassen sich die LEDs und die Leistungselektronik thermisch voneinander entkoppeln, was die Lebensdauer der Leistungselektronik sowie der LEDs vergrößert. Gleichzeitig wird dadurch das Gewicht der Lampe um das Gewicht der zugehörigen Leistungselektronik reduziert, was die Halterung der Lampe an der Leuchte vereinfacht. Von besonderem Vorteil ist dabei jedoch die Verwendung einer solchen Halteeinrichtung, die zwischen den beiden Längsenden der jeweiligen Lampe angeordnet ist. Durch diese Positionierung der jeweiligen Halteeinrichtung zwischen den Längsenden der jeweiligen Lampe lässt sich eine erheblich verbesserte Gewichtsverteilung realisieren, was ebenfalls zu einer Entlastung der Halterung bzw. der Halteeinrichtung führt.The invention is based on the general idea, in a luminaire, which includes a luminaire housing for wall and / or ceiling mounting and at least one linear, multiple LEDs having lamp to provide at least one holding device and at least one power electronics, wherein the holding means for securing the respective Lamp on the lamp housing is used while the power electronics outside of the respective lamp is arranged on or in the lamp housing. By the separation of lamp and power electronics The LEDs and the power electronics can be thermally decoupled from each other, which increases the life of the power electronics and the LEDs. At the same time thereby the weight of the lamp is reduced by the weight of the associated power electronics, which simplifies the mounting of the lamp to the lamp. Of particular advantage, however, is the use of such a holding device which is arranged between the two longitudinal ends of the respective lamp. By this positioning of the respective holding device between the longitudinal ends of the respective lamp can be realized a significantly improved weight distribution, which also leads to a discharge of the holder or the holding device.

Des Weiteren zeichnet sich die Leistungselektronik dadurch aus, dass sie mit gehäuseseitigen elektrischen Primäranschlüssen elektrisch verbunden ist, über welche die Leuchte an ein Stromnetz elektrisch anschließbar ist. Dieses Stromnetz befindet sich dabei in einem die jeweilige Wand bzw. Decke aufweisenden Gebäude.Furthermore, the power electronics is characterized in that it is electrically connected to the housing-side primary electrical connections, via which the lamp is electrically connected to a power grid. This power grid is located in a wall or ceiling having the respective building.

Die jeweilige Lampe ist vorzugsweise länglich und dabei geradlinig ausgestaltet, insbesondere stab- oder röhrenförmig.The respective lamp is preferably elongate and thereby designed in a straight line, in particular rod-shaped or tubular.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann zumindest eine solche Halteeinrichtung gehäuseseitige elektrische Sekundäranschlüsse aufweisen, die mit elektrischen Anschlussmitteln wenigstens einer solchen Lampe elektrisch verbunden sind und die mit wenigstens einer solchen Leistungselektronik elektrisch verbunden sind. Mit anderen Worten, die elektrische Verbindung zwischen Lampe und Leistungselektronik erfolgt ebenfalls über die Halteeinrichtung, die bereits die mechanische Verbindung zwischen Lampe und Leuchtengehäuse herstellt. Hierdurch vereinfacht sich die Montage.According to an advantageous embodiment, at least one such holding device may have housing-side electrical secondary connections, which are electrically connected to electrical connection means of at least one such lamp and which are electrically connected to at least one such power electronics. In other words, the electrical connection between the lamp and power electronics also takes place via the holding device, which already produces the mechanical connection between the lamp and the lamp housing. This simplifies the assembly.

Gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung ein am Leuchtengehäuse befestigtes Buchsenteil und ein an der wenigstens einen Lampe befestigtes Steckerteil aufweisen, die miteinander steckbar sind und dadurch eine mechanische Steckverbindung bilden, welche die Montage der Lampe an der Leuchte erheblich vereinfacht und die eine mechanische Befestigung der Lampe am Leuchtengehäuse herstellt.According to another advantageous embodiment, the respective holding device may be a fixed to the lamp housing socket part and a at least Having a lamp attached plug part, which are plugged together and thereby form a mechanical connector, which considerably simplifies the installation of the lamp on the lamp and which produces a mechanical attachment of the lamp to the lamp housing.

Gemäß einer zweckmäßigen Weiterbildung können das Buchsenteil und das Steckerteil außerdem eine elektrische Steckverbindung bilden, die im gesteckten Zustand buchsenseitige Kontakte, die mit der jeweiligen Leistungselektronik elektrisch verbunden sind, mit steckerseitigen Kontakten elektrisch verbindet, die mit den Sekundäranschlüssen elektrisch verbunden sind. Auf diese Weise wird eine kombinierte mechanische und elektrische Steckverbindung geschaffen, welche die Montage der Lampe an der Leuchte erheblich vereinfacht. Beim Herstellen der mechanischen Befestigung der Lampe am Leuchtengehäuse wird somit automatisch und gleichzeitig die Lampe elektrisch an die Leistungselektronik angeschlossen.According to an expedient development, the socket part and the plug part can also form an electrical plug-in connection in the plugged state socket-side contacts which are electrically connected to the respective power electronics, with plug-side contacts electrically connected, which are electrically connected to the secondary terminals. In this way, a combined mechanical and electrical connector is created, which greatly simplifies the installation of the lamp on the lamp. When making the mechanical attachment of the lamp to the lamp housing is thus automatically and at the same time the lamp is electrically connected to the power electronics.

Bei einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann die jeweilige Lampe zumindest eine Platine aufweisen, die mehrere derartige LEDs trägt. Ferner kann die jeweilige Lampe einen geradlinigen Platinenträger aufweisen, der an seiner Oberseite die jeweilige Platine trägt und an dessen Unterseite die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung befestigt ist. Die vorgestellte Bauweise führt dazu, dass die Wärme ausschließlich an der Oberseite des Platinenträgers entsteht, so dass die Unterseite des Platinenträgers zur Abstrahlung der Wärme zur Verfügung steht. Somit kann die thermische Belastung der Lampe signifikant reduziert werden. Dabei ist es grundsätzlich möglich, die verbesserte Wärmeableitung, die durch den vorgeschlagenen Aufbau der Lampe realisierbar ist, dazu zu nutzen, mehr LEDs vorzusehen und/oder leistungsstärkere LEDs zu verwenden. Insbesondere kann die hier verwendete Lampe eine relativ hohe Lichtstärke erreichen, die insbesondere signifikant größer ist als bei Leuchtstoffröhren oder LED-Röhren gleicher Größe.In another advantageous embodiment, the respective lamp may have at least one circuit board which carries a plurality of such LEDs. Furthermore, the respective lamp can have a rectilinear platinum carrier which carries the respective circuit board on its upper side and on the underside of which the respective holding device is fastened. The presented construction leads to the fact that the heat arises exclusively at the top of the platinum carrier, so that the underside of the platinum carrier is available for the radiation of the heat. Thus, the thermal load of the lamp can be significantly reduced. It is basically possible to use the improved heat dissipation, which can be realized by the proposed construction of the lamp, to provide more LEDs and / or to use more powerful LEDs. In particular, the lamp used here can achieve a relatively high light intensity, which is in particular significantly greater than in the case of fluorescent tubes or LED tubes of the same size.

Durch die vorstehend vorgeschlagene Bauweise besitzen die LEDs, die am Platinenträger nur an dessen Oberseite angeordnet sind, eine bevorzugte Lichtabstrahlrichtung. Eine Hauptachse der Lichtabstrahlung steht dabei senkrecht auf der Oberseite des Platinenträgers. Ausgehend von dieser Hauptabstrahlrichtung besitzt die Lichtabstrahlung eine kegel- bzw. keilförmige Geometrie, deren Kegel- bzw. Keilwinkel maximal 180°beträgt. Somit unterscheidet sich die hier vorgestellte Lampe signifikant von herkömmlichen Leuchtstoffröhren und LED-Röhren, die ihr Licht in der Umfangsrichtung gleichförmig abschalten.By the construction proposed above, the LEDs, which are arranged on the board carrier only at the top, have a preferred light emission direction. A main axis of the light emission is perpendicular to the top of the platinum carrier. Starting from this main emission direction, the light emission has a conical or wedge-shaped geometry whose conical or wedge angle is at most 180 °. Thus, the lamp presented here differs significantly from conventional fluorescent tubes and LED tubes that uniformly turn off their light in the circumferential direction.

Entsprechend einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann zumindest eine solche Halteeinrichtung zum Einstellen einer Drehlage zwischen wenigstens einer solchen Lampe und dem Leuchtengehäuse um eine parallel zur Längsrichtung der Lampe und außerhalb der Lampe verlaufende Drehachse ausgestaltet sein. Sofern eine Lampe der vorstehend beschriebenen Art verwendet wird, die sich durch eine bevorzugte Lichtabstrahlrichtung auszeichnet, kann durch die Drehverstellbarkeit von Lampe und Leuchtengehäuse die Lichtabstrahlrichtung der Lampe bezüglich des Leuchtengehäuses justiert werden. Auf diese Weise kann beispielsweise eine räumliche Ausstrahlung mit Hilfe der Leuchte verbessert werden.According to another advantageous embodiment, at least one such holding device for adjusting a rotational position between at least one such lamp and the lamp housing can be configured around a rotation axis extending parallel to the longitudinal direction of the lamp and outside the lamp. If a lamp of the type described above is used, which is characterized by a preferred Lichtabstrahlrichtung, the Lichtabstrahlrichtung the lamp can be adjusted relative to the lamp housing by the Drehverstellbarkeit of the lamp and the lamp housing. In this way, for example, a spatial radiation can be improved with the help of the lamp.

Entsprechend einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung kann die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung ein die Drehachse definierendes Gelenk aufweisen, das zwischen einer gehäuseseitigen Befestigungsstelle, über welche die Halteeinrichtung am Leuchtengehäuse befestigt ist, und einer lampenseitigen Befestigungsstelle angeordnet ist, über welche die Halteeinrichtung an der Lampe befestigt ist. Das jeweilige Gelenk befindet sich somit zwischen der Lampe und dem Leuchtengehäuse, wodurch das Einstellen eines Lichtabstrahlwinkels bezüglich des Leuchtengehäuses vereinfacht wird.According to an advantageous development, the respective holding device may have a hinge defining the axis of rotation, which is arranged between a housing-side attachment point, via which the holding device is attached to the lamp housing, and a lamp-side attachment point, via which the holding device is attached to the lamp. The respective joint is thus located between the lamp and the lamp housing, whereby the setting of a Lichtabstrahlwinkels is simplified with respect to the lamp housing.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist eine Ausführungsform, bei welcher die Halteeinrichtung zumindest ein an der jeweiligen Lampe befestigtes Lampenteil und zumindest ein am Leuchtengehäuse befestigtes Gehäuseteil aufweist, die separate Bauteile repräsentieren und aneinander befestigt sind. Dabei können die beiden Bauteile beweglich, insbesondere gelenkig, miteinander verbunden sein.Particularly advantageous is an embodiment in which the holding device has at least one lamp part attached to the respective lamp and at least one Having mounted on the lamp housing housing part, which represent separate components and are attached to each other. In this case, the two components can be movable, in particular articulated, connected to each other.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist eine Weiterbildung, bei welcher entweder das jeweilige Lampenteil über die zuvor genannte Steckverbindung an der Lampe lösbar befestigt ist oder das jeweilige Gehäuseteil über die genannte Steckverbindung lösbar am Leuchtengehäuse befestigt ist.Particularly advantageous is a development in which either the respective lamp part via the aforementioned connector is releasably attached to the lamp or the respective housing part is releasably secured via said connector to the lamp housing.

Gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Weiterbildung kann nun vorgesehen sein, dass das jeweilige Lampenteil über ein die jeweilige Drehachse definierendes Gelenk am Gehäuseteil drehverstellbar gehalten ist. Auf diese Weise lässt sich die Drehverstellbarkeit zwischen Lampe und Leuchtengehäuse mit Hilfe der jeweiligen Halteeinrichtung besonders preiswert realisieren.According to another advantageous development, it can now be provided that the respective lamp part is held in a rotationally adjustable manner on the housing part via a hinge defining the respective axis of rotation. In this way, the rotational adjustability between the lamp and the lamp housing can be realized particularly inexpensively with the aid of the respective holding device.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung kann nun die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung zumindest zwei solche Lampenteile aufweisen, die über ein gemeinsames Gelenk oder über separate Gelenke an einem gemeinsamen Gehäuseteil gehalten sind. Insbesondere lassen sich dabei die beiden Lampen unabhängig voneinander relativ zum Leuchtengehäuse hinsichtlich ihrer Drehlage justieren, was die Verwendbarkeit der Leuchte erheblich verbessert.According to a preferred development, the respective holding device can now have at least two such lamp parts which are held on a common housing part via a common joint or via separate joints. In particular, the two lamps can be adjusted independently relative to the luminaire housing with respect to their rotational position, which significantly improves the usability of the lamp.

Gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Weiterbildung kann das jeweilige Gelenk ein Mittelteil und zwei Seitenteile aufweisen, die bezüglich der Drehachse beiderseits des Mittelteils angeordnet sind. Das Mittelteil kann an seiner bezüglich der Drehachse axialen Stirnseiten eine Kontaktfläche aufweisen, die konvex oder konkav gewölbt oder konisch ist. Das jeweilige Seitenteil kann dagegen eine Gegenkontaktfläche aufweisen, die komplementär zur zugewandten Kontaktfläche des Mittelteils geformt ist und mit dieser in Eingriff steht. Durch die vorgeschlagene Formgebung kann ein besonders einfach herstellbares Gelenk realisiert werden, in dem die zueinander verstellbaren Komponenten über Formschluss im Bereich der gewölbten oder konischen, miteinander in Eingriff stehenden Flächen aneinander gehalten sind, wobei die miteinander in Eingriff stehenden Flächen gleichzeitig eine Drehverstellung um die dazu konzentrische Drehachse ermöglichen.According to another advantageous development, the respective joint may have a central part and two side parts, which are arranged with respect to the axis of rotation on both sides of the central part. The middle part may have on its axis of rotation with respect to the axial end faces a contact surface which is convex or concave curved or conical. By contrast, the respective side part may have a mating contact surface which is shaped to be complementary to the facing contact surface of the middle part and is in engagement therewith. The proposed shaping a particularly easy to produce joint can be realized in which the mutually adjustable components via positive engagement in the field the curved or conical, mutually engaging surfaces are held together, wherein the mutually engaging surfaces simultaneously allow a rotational adjustment about the concentric axis of rotation.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist eine Weiterbildung, bei welcher zumindest bei einem Seitenteil die Gegenkontaktfläche und die zugehörige Kontaktfläche bezüglich der Drehachse sternförmig verrippt sind. Durch eine derartige Verrippung lässt sich die Drehverstellung der Lampe bezüglich des Leuchtengehäuses um die Drehachse gestuft realisieren, wobei die einzelnen Stufen durch die Rippen der Verrippung definiert sind. Gleichzeitig bewirken die Rippen, dass die jeweilige eingestellte Relativlage vergleichsweise stabil ist.Particularly advantageous is a development in which at least in one side part, the counter contact surface and the associated contact surface are ribbed in a star shape with respect to the axis of rotation. By such a ribbing, the rotational adjustment of the lamp with respect to the lamp housing can be realized stepped around the axis of rotation, wherein the individual stages are defined by the ribs of the ribbing. At the same time, the ribs cause the respective adjusted relative position to be comparatively stable.

Bei einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann das Gehäuseteil das Buchsenteil und ein Verbindungsteil des Steckerteils aufweisen, wobei dann das Steckerteil das Verbindungsteil und zumindest ein solches Lampenteil aufweist. Die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung umfasst somit zumindest drei einzelne Bauteile, nämlich das Buchsenteil, das Verbindungsteil und zumindest ein Lampenteil. Die Halteeinrichtung lässt sich dadurch besonders einfach herstellen.In another advantageous embodiment, the housing part may comprise the socket part and a connecting part of the plug part, in which case the plug part has the connecting part and at least one such lamp part. The respective holding device thus comprises at least three individual components, namely the socket part, the connecting part and at least one lamp part. The holding device can be particularly easy to produce.

Erfindungsgemäß weist das Leuchtengehäuse ein geradliniges Tragprofil zur Wand- und/oder Deckenmontage und zumindest einen daran befestigten geradlinigen Geräteträger auf, an dem die wenigstens eine Leistungselektronik angeordnet ist und an dem die wenigstens eine Halteeinrichtung befestigt ist. Hierdurch besitzt das Leuchtengehäuse einen vergleichsweise einfach realisierbaren Aufbau, der außerdem eine einfache Montage ermöglicht.According to the invention, the luminaire housing has a rectilinear support profile for wall and / or ceiling mounting and at least one rectilinear equipment support attached thereto, on which the at least one power electronics is arranged and to which the at least one retaining device is attached. As a result, the lamp housing has a comparatively easy to implement construction, which also allows easy installation.

Gemäß einer zweckmäßigen Ausführungsform kann der jeweilige Geräteträger über wenigstens eine Riegeleinrichtung am Tragprofil gesichert werden, die sich über eine besonders hohe Stabilität bzw. Festigkeit in der Verbindung zwischen Geräteträger und Tragprofil auszeichnet. Zweckmäßig kann nun die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung im Bereich einer solchen Riegeleinrichtung am Geräteträger befestigt sein. Auf diese Weise wird erreicht, dass das Gewicht der Lampe über die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung im Bereich der jeweiligen Riegeleinrichtung in den Geräteträger eingeleitet wird. Im Bereich der jeweiligen Riegeleinrichtung besitzt jedoch der Geräteträger aufgrund seiner gesicherten Anbindung am Tragprofil eine besonders hohe Steifigkeit und Stabilität, was die Halterung der Lampe am Leuchtengehäuse vereinfacht.According to an expedient embodiment, the respective equipment carrier can be secured by at least one locking device on the support profile, which is characterized by a particularly high stability and strength in the connection between equipment carrier and support profile. Suitably, the respective holding device can now be fastened to the device carrier in the region of such a locking device. In this way it is achieved that the weight of the lamp is introduced via the respective holding device in the region of the respective locking device in the equipment carrier. In the area of the respective locking device, however, the device carrier has due to its secure connection to the support profile a particularly high rigidity and stability, which simplifies the mounting of the lamp on the lamp housing.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann der Platinenträger ein Metallprofil, insbesondere ein Leichtmetallprofil, vorzugsweise ein Aluminiumprofil, sein. Durch diese Bauform besitzt der Profilträger zum Einen eine sehr hohe Stabilität, wodurch insbesondere ein Durchbiegen oder Durchhängen der geradlinigen, stabförmigen Lampe vermieden werden kann. Zum Anderen kann der metallische Profilträger Wärme gut ableiten, die im Betrieb der Lampe von den LEDs erzeugt und über bzw. durch die jeweilige Platine in den Profilträger eingeleitet wird. Somit lässt sich die thermische Belastung der Lampe weiter reduzieren, was deren Lebenszeit erhöht.According to an advantageous embodiment of the platinum support may be a metal profile, in particular a light metal profile, preferably an aluminum profile. By this design, the profile support on the one hand has a very high stability, whereby in particular a sagging or sagging of the linear, rod-shaped lamp can be avoided. On the other hand, the metallic profile carrier can dissipate heat well, which is generated by the LEDs during operation of the lamp and introduced via or through the respective board in the profile carrier. Thus, the thermal load of the lamp can be further reduced, which increases their lifetime.

Bei einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann die Abdeckung ein C-förmiges Querschnittsprofil besitzen, dessen Profilöffnung durch den Platinenträger verschlossen ist. Diese Ausgestaltung führt zu einer Bauform, bei welcher der Profilträger nur an seiner Oberseite durch die Abdeckung abgedeckt ist, während er an seiner Unterseite offen ist und der Umgebung ausgesetzt ist. Diese Maßnahme verbessert die Wärmeabstrahlung des Platinenträgers an die Umgebung über seine Unterseite.In another advantageous embodiment, the cover may have a C-shaped cross-sectional profile whose profile opening is closed by the platinum carrier. This configuration leads to a design in which the profile carrier is covered only on its upper side by the cover, while it is open on its underside and exposed to the environment. This measure improves the heat radiation of the platinum support to the environment via its underside.

Zweckmäßig kann die Abdeckung unmittelbar am Platinenträger befestigt sein. Denkbar ist insbesondere eine Verclipsung oder Verrastung. Beispielsweise können sich an der Profilöffnung gegenüberliegende Profilschenkel der Abdeckung mit Rastnasen ausgestattet sein, die mit entsprechenden Rastkonturen zusammenwirken, die an den Längsseiten des Platinenträgers ausgeformt sein können. Die Abdeckung kann, insbesondere durch ihre Herstellung aus Kunststoff, soweit federelastisch gestaltet sein, dass sie quer zu ihrer Längsrichtung auf den Platinenträger aufclipsbar ist.Suitably, the cover can be attached directly to the board carrier. Conceivable is in particular a Verclipsung or Verrastung. For example, at the profile opening opposite profile leg of the cover may be equipped with locking lugs, which cooperate with corresponding latching contours, which may be formed on the longitudinal sides of the platinum carrier. The cover may, in particular by its manufacture from plastic, be designed to be resilient so far that it can be clipped onto the platinum carrier transversely to its longitudinal direction.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform können die trägerseitigen Befestigungsmittel, die am Platinenträger ausgebildet sind, durch wenigstens einen Schraubkanal gebildet sein, in den zum Befestigen der Lampe an oder in der Leuchte zumindest eine Schraube einschraubbar ist. Ein derartiger Schraubkanal charakterisiert sich durch ein Querschnittsprofil, das an zwei sich im Kanal gegenüberliegenden Wänden ein Rillenprofil oder Sägezahnprofil besitzt, das mit einer Schraube nach Art eines Gewindesegments zusammenwirkt. Da sich der jeweilige Schraubkanal innerhalb des Profilkörpers über die gesamte Länge des Platinenträgers erstreckt, lässt sich an jeder beliebigen Stelle zwischen den Längsenden des Platinenträgers eine derartige Schraube befestigen, wodurch eine hohe Flexibilität für die Positionierung einer Halterung zum Verbinden der Lampe mit der Leuchte gegeben ist.According to an advantageous embodiment, the carrier-side fastening means which are formed on the platinum carrier may be formed by at least one screw, in which at least one screw can be screwed to attach the lamp or in the lamp. Such a screw is characterized by a cross-sectional profile having a groove profile or sawtooth profile on two opposite walls in the channel, which cooperates with a screw in the manner of a threaded segment. Since the respective screw extends within the profile body over the entire length of the platinum carrier, such a screw can be fastened at any point between the longitudinal ends of the platinum carrier, whereby a high flexibility for the positioning of a holder for connecting the lamp is given to the lamp ,

Gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform können die elektrischen Anschlussmittel zumindest zwei lampenseitige elektrische Kontakte aufweisen, die über wenigstens zwei elektrische Leitungen mit platinenseitigen elektrischen Kontakten elektrisch verbunden sind, die ihrerseits über Leiterbahnen der jeweiligen Platine mit den LEDs elektrisch verbunden sind. Mit anderen Worten, zwischen den LEDs und den elektrischen Anschlussmitteln der Lampe ist keine Leistungselektronik vorgesehen, so dass die hier vorgestellte Lampe keine zugehörige Leistungselektronik beinhaltet. Vielmehr kann eine derartige Leistungselektronik nunmehr an bzw. in der Leuchte angeordnet werden. Diese Maßnahme reduziert zum Einen das Gewicht der Lampe. Zum Anderen lässt sich die Lampe dadurch preiswerter realisieren. Des Weiteren sind auf diese Weise die Leistungselektronik und die LEDs thermisch voneinander entkoppelt, wodurch die Lebensdauer der Leistungselektronik und/oder der LEDs erheblich vergrößert werden kann.According to another advantageous embodiment, the electrical connection means may comprise at least two lamp-side electrical contacts, which are electrically connected via at least two electrical lines with board-side electrical contacts, which in turn are electrically connected via interconnects of the respective board with the LEDs. In other words, no power electronics are provided between the LEDs and the electrical connection means of the lamp, so that the lamp presented here is not associated Power electronics included. Rather, such power electronics can now be arranged on or in the luminaire. This measure reduces the weight of the lamp on the one hand. On the other hand, the lamp can thus be realized cheaper. Furthermore, the power electronics and the LEDs are thermally decoupled from each other in this way, whereby the life of the power electronics and / or LEDs can be significantly increased.

Gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann zumindest eine Endkappe vorgesehen sein, die auf ein Längsende des Platinenträgers und der Abdeckung aufgesteckt ist. Da der Platinenträger und die Abdeckung jeweils als Profilkörper ausgestaltet sind, die insbesondere durch Strangpressen oder Strangziehen hergestellt sind, ermöglicht die jeweilige Endkappe einen stirnseitigen Abschluss der jeweiligen Lampe, beispielsweise um die elektrischen Komponenten der Lampe, also insbesondere die LEDs vor Staub, Schmutz und Feuchtigkeit zu schützen. Insbesondere kann die jeweilige Endkappe aufgeclipst oder aufgeklebt sein.According to another advantageous embodiment, at least one end cap can be provided, which is attached to a longitudinal end of the platinum carrier and the cover. Since the plate carrier and the cover are each designed as profile body, which are made in particular by extrusion or pultrusion, the respective end cap allows a frontal completion of the respective lamp, for example, the electrical components of the lamp, ie in particular the LEDs from dust, dirt and moisture to protect. In particular, the respective end cap can be clipped or glued.

Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung kann zumindest seine solche Endkappe kappenseitige elektrische Kontakte aufweisen, die beim Aufstecken die platinenseitigen elektrischen Kontakte elektrisch kontaktieren, und die mit den vorstehend genannten elektrischen Leitungen elektrisch verbunden sind. Bei dieser Ausführungsform erfolgt somit die elektrische Kontaktierung der Platinen über diese Endkappe, wobei die Leitungen, die zu den lampenseitigen elektrischen Kontakten führen, von dieser Endkappe ausgehen. Hierdurch lässt sich beispielsweise eine Kabeldurchführung durch den Platinenträger hindurch vermeiden.According to a particularly advantageous development, at least its such end cap can have cap-side electrical contacts which, when plugged in, electrically contact the board-side electrical contacts, and which are electrically connected to the above-mentioned electrical lines. In this embodiment, therefore, the electrical contacting of the boards takes place via this end cap, wherein the lines leading to the lamp-side electrical contacts, emanating from this end cap. As a result, for example, a cable feedthrough through the board carrier can be avoided.

Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die elektrischen Leitungen mittels elektrischer Kabel gebildet sind, die über ihre gesamte Länge oder nur in einem Längsabschnitt in einem Kanal verlaufen, der an der Unterseite des Platinenträgers ausgebildet ist. Hierdurch ist es möglich, die elektrischen Leitungen bzw. die zugehörigen Kabel von einem Längsende der Lampe, zweckmäßig von der vorstehend genannten Endkappe, zu einer quasi beliebigen Position zwischen den Längsenden der Lampe verdeckt und somit geschützt zu verlegen. Ein Kabel umfasst zumindest eine Leitung und eine die Leitung umschließende elektrische Isolierung.According to a particularly advantageous development, it can be provided that the electrical lines are formed by means of electrical cables which extend over their entire length or only in a longitudinal section in a channel which is formed on the underside of the platinum carrier. This makes it possible, the electrical wires and the associated cable from a longitudinal end of the lamp, suitably covered by the above-mentioned end cap to a quasi arbitrary position between the longitudinal ends of the lamp and thus protected to lay. A cable comprises at least one conduit and an electrical insulation surrounding the conduit.

Ein erfindungsgemäßes Lichtband zeichnet sich durch wenigstens zwei Leuchten der vorstehend beschriebenen Art aus, die stirnseitig aneinander stoßen.A light band according to the invention is characterized by at least two lights of the type described above, which abut one another at the front side.

Weitere wichtige Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, aus den Zeichnungen und aus der zugehörigen Figurenbeschreibung anhand der Zeichnungen.Other important features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, from the drawings and from the associated figure description with reference to the drawings.

Es versteht sich, dass die vorstehend genannten und die nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen oder in Alleinstellung verwendbar sind, ohne den Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung zu verlassen.It is understood that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the particular combination given, but also in other combinations or in isolation, without departing from the scope of the present invention.

It is clear that in principle an embodiment with three or more such lamps 3 can be realized.

Zum Befestigen der jeweiligen Lampe 3 am Leuchtengehäuse 2 ist zumindest eine Halteeinrichtung 4 vorgesehen. In der Darstellung der Fig. 1, die nur einen Endabschnitt der Leuchte 1 zeigt, ist nur eine solche Halteeinrichtung 4 erkennbar. Zweckmäßig sind dagegen zwei derartige Halteeinrichtungen 4 vorgesehen, um die jeweilige Lampe 3 am Leuchtengehäuse 2 zu befestigen. Bemerkenswert ist, dass die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung 4 zwischen zwei Längsenden 5 der jeweiligen Lampe 3 angeordnet ist, wobei in Fig. 1 nur das linke Längsende 5 erkennbar ist. Die zu diesem Längsende 5 benachbarte Halteeinrichtung 4 besitzt einen signifikanten Abstand zu diesem Längsende 5, der parallel zu einer Längsrichtung 6 der Lampe 3 gemessen ist. Die jeweilige Lampe 3 besitzt ebenso wie die Leuchte 2 eine geradlinige Gestalt.For fixing the respective lamp 3 to the lamp housing 2, at least one holding device 4 is provided. In the presentation of the Fig. 1 , which shows only one end portion of the lamp 1, only one such holding device 4 can be seen. Conveniently, however, two such holding devices 4 are provided to secure the respective lamp 3 on the lamp housing 2. It is noteworthy that the respective holding device 4 is arranged between two longitudinal ends 5 of the respective lamp 3, wherein in Fig. 1 only the left longitudinal end 5 recognizable is. The adjacent to this longitudinal end 5 holding device 4 has a significant distance to this longitudinal end 5, which is measured parallel to a longitudinal direction 6 of the lamp 3.

The socket-side contacts 14 are electrically connected via lines 16 to the power electronics 7. The plug-side contacts 15, however, are electrically connected via corresponding lines 17 to the secondary terminals 10.

Wie sich den Fig. 2, 4 und 11 bis 15 entnehmen lässt, weist die jeweilige Lampe 3 zumindest eine Platine 18 auf, die mehrere LEDs 19 trägt. Des Weiteren besitzt die jeweilige Lampe 3 einen Platinenträger 20, der als geradliniger Profilkörper ausgestaltet ist und der eine Oberseite 21 sowie eine davon abgewandte Unterseite 22 aufweist. Die Platine 18 ist an der Oberseite 21 angeordnet, so dass sich auch nur an der Oberseite 21 die LEDs 19 befinden. Die Halteeinrichtung 4 ist an der Unterseite 22 des Platinenträgers 20 befestigt.How the Fig. 2 . 4 and 11 to 15 can be seen, the respective lamp 3, at least one circuit board 18 which carries a plurality of LEDs 19. Furthermore, the respective lamp 3 has a platinum carrier 20, which is designed as a rectilinear profile body and which has an upper side 21 and an underside 22 facing away therefrom. The circuit board 18 is arranged on the upper side 21, so that the LEDs 19 are also located only on the upper side 21. The holding device 4 is attached to the underside 22 of the platinum carrier 20.

Durch den gezeigten Aufbau besitzt die Lampe 3 eine vorbestimmte Abstrahlrichtung, deren Hauptachse oder Hauptebene in den Fig. 2 und 3 mit 23 bezeichnet ist.Due to the structure shown, the lamp 3 has a predetermined emission direction, whose main axis or main plane in the Fig. 2 and 3 denoted by 23.

Entsprechend den Fig. 2 bis 9 kann die hier gezeigte Halteeinrichtung 4 so ausgestaltet sein, dass damit eine Drehlage zwischen der jeweiligen Lampe 3 und dem Leuchtengehäuse 2 bezüglich einer Drehachse 24 einstellbar ist, die sich parallel zur Längsrichtung 6 der jeweiligen Lampe 3 und außerhalb der jeweiligen Lampe 3 erstreckt. Gemäß den Fig. 4 bis 9 besitzt die jeweilige Haltevorrichtung 4 zumindest ein Gelenk 25, das die Drehachse 24 definiert und das zwischen einer gehäuseseitigen Befestigungsstelle 26 und einer lampenseitigen Befestigungsstelle 27 angeordnet ist. Über die gehäuseseitige Befestigungsstelle 26 ist die Halteeinrichtung 4 am Gehäuse 2 befestigt. Über die lampenseitige Befestigungsstelle 27 ist die Halteeinrichtung 4 an der jeweiligen Lampe 3 befestigt. Bei den hier gezeigten Ausführungsformen umfasst die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung 4 für die jeweilige Lampe 3 ein Lampenteil 28, das an der jeweiligen Lampe 3 befestigt ist, sowie ein Gehäuseteil 29, das am Leuchtengehäuse 2 befestigt ist.According to the Fig. 2 to 9 For example, the holding device 4 shown here can be designed such that a rotational position between the respective lamp 3 and the lamp housing 2 with respect to a rotation axis 24 is adjustable, which extends parallel to the longitudinal direction 6 of the respective lamp 3 and outside the respective lamp 3. According to the Fig. 4 to 9 the respective holding device 4 has at least one hinge 25 which defines the axis of rotation 24 and which is arranged between a housing-side attachment point 26 and a lamp-side attachment point 27. About the housing-side attachment point 26, the holding device 4 is attached to the housing 2. About the lamp-side attachment point 27, the holding device 4 is attached to the respective lamp 3. In the embodiments shown here, the respective holding device 4 for the respective lamp 3 comprises a lamp part 28 which is fixed to the respective lamp 3, and a housing part 29 which is fixed to the lamp housing 2.

Dabei ist das jeweilige Lampenteil 28 über das die zugehörige Drehachse 24 definierende Gelenk 25 am Gehäuseteil 29 drehverstellbar gehalten. Bei der in Fig. 4 gezeigten Ausführungsform ist nur ein einziges Lampenteil 28 über das Gelenk 25 am Gehäuseteil 29 drehverstellbar gehalten. Bei der in Fig. 5 gezeigten Ausführungsform besitzt die Halteeinrichtung 4 dagegen genau zwei derartige Lampenteile 28, die über zwei separate Gelenke 25 an einem gemeinsamen Gehäuseteil 29 um separate Drehachsen 24 drehverstellbar gehalten sind. Erkennbar sind die beiden Gelenke 25 dabei unabhängig voneinander, so dass die an den Lampenteilen 28 befestigten Lampen 3 unabhängig voneinander bezüglich des Leuchtengehäuses 2 drehverstellbar sind.In this case, the respective lamp part 28 is rotatably held on the housing part 29 via the hinge 25 defining the associated axis of rotation 24. At the in Fig. 4 shown embodiment, only a single lamp part 28 is held rotatably adjustable via the hinge 25 on the housing part 29. At the in Fig. 5 shown embodiment, the holding device 4, however, has exactly two such lamp parts 28, which are held on two separate joints 25 on a common housing part 29 about separate axes of rotation 24 rotationally adjustable. Visible, the two joints 25 are independent of each other, so that the attached to the lamp parts 28 lamps 3 are independent of each other with respect to the lamp housing 2 rotatable.

Wie den Fig. 2 und 3 entnehmbar ist, kann mit Hilfe des jeweiligen Gelenks 25 die Hauptabstrahlrichtung 23 der jeweiligen Lampe 3 zumindest in der einen Richtung innerhalb eines Verstellbereichs 54 verstellt werden.Like that Fig. 2 and 3 can be removed, the main radiation direction 23 of the respective lamp 3 can be adjusted at least in one direction within an adjustment range 54 with the aid of the respective joint 25.

Wie den Fig. 4 bis 9 weiter zu entnehmen ist, besitzt das jeweilige Gelenk 25 ein Mitteilteil 30 sowie zwei Seitenteile 31, wobei die beiden Seitenteile 31 bezüglich der Drehachse 24 beiderseits des Mittelteils 30 angeordnet sind. Das jeweilige Mittelteil 30 besitzt an seinen axialen Stirnseiten 32, die voneinander abgewandt sind, jeweils eine Kontaktfläche 33, die bei den gezeigten Beispielen eine konkave Konizität besitzt. Im Unterschied dazu besitzen die Seitenteile 31 jeweils an einer dem Mittelteil 30 zugewandten Seite eine Gegenkontaktfläche 34, die komplementär zur zugehörigen bzw. zugewandten Kontaktfläche 33 geformt ist und mit dieser in Eingriff steht. Beim gezeigten Beispiel sind die Gegenkontaktflächen 34 somit mit einer konvexen Konizität versehen. Die gewählten Konizitäten sind dabei koaxial zur Drehachse 24 ausgerichtet, wodurch die miteinander in Eingriff stehenden Flächen 33, 34 die Drehachse 24 definieren.Like that Fig. 4 to 9 can be seen further, the respective joint 25 has a Mitteilteil 30 and two side parts 31, wherein the two side parts 31 are arranged with respect to the axis of rotation 24 on either side of the central part 30. The respective central part 30 has at its axial end faces 32, which are remote from each other, each having a contact surface 33, which has a concave conicity in the examples shown. In contrast to this, the side parts 31 each have on a side facing the middle part 30 a mating contact surface 34, which is shaped complementarily to the associated or facing contact surface 33 and is in engagement therewith. In the example shown, the mating contact surfaces 34 are thus provided with a convex conicity. The selected Konizitäten are aligned coaxially with the axis of rotation 24, whereby the mutually engaging surfaces 33, 34 define the axis of rotation 24.

Bei den hier gezeigten Ausführungsformen sind beide Gegenkontaktflächen 34 und die zugehörigen Kontaktflächen 33 bezüglich der Drehachse 24 sternförmig verrippt, d.h. dass mehrere bezüglich der Drehachse 24 sternförmig angeordnete Rippen 35 vorgesehen sind. Die Rippen 35 der Kontaktflächen 33 sind auf die Rippen 35 der Gegenkontaktflächen 34 so abgestimmt, dass die Lampenteile 28, welche die Seitenteile 31 aufweisen, gestuft gegenüber dem Gehäuseteil 29 drehverstellbar sind, welches das Mittelteil 30 aufweist.In the embodiments shown here, both mating contact surfaces 34 and the associated contact surfaces 33 are ribbed in a star shape with respect to the axis of rotation 24, i. a plurality of ribs 35 arranged in a star shape with respect to the axis of rotation 24 are provided. The ribs 35 of the contact surfaces 33 are matched to the ribs 35 of the mating contact surfaces 34 so that the lamp parts 28, which have the side parts 31, are rotationally adjustable with respect to the housing part 29, which has the central part 30.

Wie sich insbesondere den Fig. 4 und 5 entnehmen lässt, umfasst das jeweilige Gehäuseteil 29 einerseits das Buchsenteil 12 und andererseits ein Verbindungsteil 36 des Steckerteils 13, während das Steckerteil 13 neben dem Verbindungsteil 36 zumindest ein solches Lampenteil 28 aufweist.How in particular the 4 and 5 can be seen, the respective housing part 29 comprises on the one hand the socket part 12 and on the other hand, a connecting part 36 of the plug part 13, while the plug part 13 next to the connecting part 36 has at least one such lamp part 28.

Die Fig. 6a und 6b zeigen zwei um 90° zueinander verdrehte Ansichten eines derartigen Buchsenteils 12, das auf geeignete Weise am Leuchtengehäuse 2 befestigt werden kann. Bevorzugt ist hier eine Clipsverbindung. Bevorzugt handelt es sich beim Buchsenteil 12 um ein einteiliges Spritzgussteil, insbesondere aus Kunststoff.The Fig. 6a and 6b show two rotated by 90 ° to each other views of such a female part 12 which can be secured to the lamp housing 2 in a suitable manner. Preferred here is a clip connection. Preferably, the socket part 12 is a one-piece injection-molded part, in particular made of plastic.

Die Fig. 7a und 7b zeigen ein Lampenteil 28 in zwei um 90° zueinander verdrehten Ansichten. Erkennbar umfasst das Lampenteil 28 die beiden Seitenteile 31. Bevorzugt handelt es sich beim Lampenteil 28 um ein einteiliges Spritzgußteil, insbesondere aus Kunststoff.The Fig. 7a and 7b show a lamp part 28 in two rotated by 90 ° to each other views. Visible, the lamp part 28 comprises the two side parts 31. Preferably, the lamp part 28 is a one-piece injection molded part, in particular made of plastic.

Bevorzugt handelt es sich beim Verbindungsteil 36 um ein einteiliges Spritzgussteil, insbesondere aus Kunststoff.The Fig. 8a and 8b show such a connecting part 36 for an embodiment with only one joint 25 in two rotated by 90 ° to each other views. Preferably, the connecting part 36 is a one-piece injection-molded part, in particular made of plastic.

Die Fig. 9a und 9b zeigen ein derartiges Verbindungsteil 36 für eine Ausführungsform mit zwei Gelenken 25. Bevorzugt handelt es sich bei diesem Verbindungsteil 36 um ein einteiliges Spritzgussteil, insbesondere aus Kunststoff.The Fig. 9a and 9b show such a connecting part 36 for an embodiment with two joints 25. Preferably, this connecting part 36 is a one-piece injection molded part, in particular made of plastic.

Gemäß den Fig. 2 und 3 umfasst das Leuchtengehäuse 2 bevorzugt ein geradliniges Tragprofil 37, das sich zur Wand bzw. Deckenmontage eignet, sowie zumindest einen am Tragprofil 37 befestigten geradlinigen Geräteträger 38, an dem die Leistungselektronik 7 und die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung 4 befestigt sind. Der Geräteträger 38 ist bei der hier gezeigten Ausführungsform in das Tragprofil 37 randseitig eingeclipst, wodurch eine lösbare Verbindung zwischen Geräteträger 38 und Tragprofil 37 hergestellt ist. Um diese lösbare Verbindung zu sichern, kann zumindest eine in Fig. 1 angedeutete Riegeleinrichtung 39 vorgesehen sein, die zwischen einem Verriegelungszustand und einem Entriegelungszustand verstellbar ist. Im Verriegelungszustand führt die Riegeleinrichtung 39 zu einer intensiven Aussteifung des Leuchtengehäuses 2 im Bereich der Riegeleinrichtung 39. Gleichzeitig wird dadurch der Geräteträger 38 am Tragprofil 37 gesichert. Erkennbar ist nun gemäß Fig. 1 die jeweilige Halteeinrichtung 4 im Bereich einer derartigen Riegeleinrichtung 39 am Geräteträger 38 befestigt. Somit ist die Halteeinrichtung 4 im Bereich der größten Steifigkeit des Leuchtengehäuses 2 angeordnet.According to the Fig. 2 and 3 the luminaire housing 2 preferably comprises a rectilinear support profile 37 which is suitable for wall or ceiling mounting, and at least one rectilinear equipment support 38 attached to the support profile 37 to which the power electronics 7 and the respective holding device 4 are fastened. The device carrier 38 is in the embodiment shown here clipped into the support section 37 at the edge, whereby a detachable connection between the device carrier 38 and support section 37 is made. To secure this detachable connection, at least one in Fig. 1 indicated locking device 39 may be provided, which is adjustable between a locking state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the locking device 39 leads to an intensive stiffening of the lamp housing 2 in the region of the locking device 39. At the same time thereby the device carrier 38 is secured to the support section 37. Recognizable is now according to Fig. 1 the respective holding device 4 is fastened to the device carrier 38 in the region of such a locking device 39. Thus, the holding device 4 is arranged in the region of maximum rigidity of the lamp housing 2.

Die in den Fig. 1 bis 3 gezeigte Leuchte 1 kann beispielsweise zum Herstellen eines hier nicht gezeigten Lichtbands verwendet werden, bei dem zumindest zwei derartige Leuchten 1 stirnseitig aneinander stoßen.The in the Fig. 1 to 3 shown light 1 can be used, for example, for producing a light band, not shown here, in which at least two such lamps 1 abut each other frontally.

Entsprechend den Fig. 10 bis 15 umfasst die jeweilige Lampe 3 neben der Platine 18 mit den LEDs 19 und dem Platinenträger 20 außerdem eine Abdeckung 40, die ebenfalls als geradliniger Profilkörper ausgestaltet ist und die für das Licht der LEDs 19 transparent bzw. transluzent ist. Die Abdeckung 40 kann leicht opak sein, um die Lichtabstrahlung der singulären LEDs 19 zu homogenisieren. Die Abdeckung 40 ist außerdem am Platinenträger 20 befestigt und zwar derart, dass sie an der Oberseite 21 des Platinenträgers 20 einen Hohlraum 41 begrenzt, in dem die Platine 18 mit den LEDs 19 angeordnet ist. Der Platinenträger 20 weist an seiner Unterseite 22 trägerseitige Befestigungsmittel 42, mit deren Hilfe die Lampe 3 an bzw. in der jeweiligen Leuchte 1 befestigt werden kann, sowie die bereits genannten elektrischen Anschlussmittel 11 auf, von denen in Fig. 11 rein exemplarisch zwei Leitungen 43 angedeutet sind. Über diese Anschlussmittel 11 kann die jeweilige Lampe 3 mit einer Stromversorgung der zugehörigen Leuchte 1 elektrisch kontaktiert werden. Diese Stromversorgung umfasst dabei die Leistungselektronik 7.According to the 10 to 15 the respective lamp 3 next to the board 18 with the LEDs 19 and the board carrier 20 also includes a cover 40 which is also configured as a straight profile body and which is transparent or translucent for the light of the LEDs 19. The cover 40 may be slightly opaque be to homogenize the light emission of the singular LEDs 19. The cover 40 is also attached to the platinum support 20, specifically in such a way that it delimits a cavity 41 on the upper side 21 of the platinum support 20, in which the circuit board 18 with the LEDs 19 is arranged. The platinum carrier 20 has on its underside 22 carrier-side fastening means 42, by means of which the lamp 3 can be attached to or in the respective lamp 1, and the already mentioned electrical connection means 11, of which in Fig. 11 purely exemplary two lines 43 are indicated. About this connection means 11, the respective lamp 3 can be electrically contacted with a power supply of the associated lamp 1. This power supply includes the power electronics. 7

Erkennbar ist die Lampe 3 stabförmig konzipiert. Die Lampe 3 besitzt dabei jedoch keinen Kreisquerschnitt, sondern eher einen D-förmigen Querschnitt.Visible, the lamp 3 is designed rod-shaped. However, the lamp 3 does not have a circular cross-section, but rather a D-shaped cross-section.

Der Platinenträger 20 ist vorzugsweise ein Metallprofil, und zwar insbesondere ein Leichtmetallprofil, vorzugsweise ein Aluminiumprofil. Der metallische Platinenträger 20 erzeugt zum Einen eine hohe Stabilität und Formsteifigkeit für die Lampe 3. Zum Anderen kann der metallische Platinenträger 20 Wärme, die im Betrieb der Lampe 3 von den LEDs 19 erzeugt wird, nach außen abführen. Dies wird insbesondere dadurch begünstigt, dass die LEDs 19 ausschließlich an der Oberseite 21 angeordnet sind, so dass die Unterseite 22 zur Abstrahlung der Wärme an die Umgebung zur Verfügung steht.The platinum carrier 20 is preferably a metal profile, in particular a light metal profile, preferably an aluminum profile. The metallic platinum carrier 20, on the one hand, produces high stability and dimensional stability for the lamp 3. On the other hand, the metallic platinum carrier 20 can dissipate heat, which is generated by the LEDs 19 during operation of the lamp 3, to the outside. This is facilitated in particular by the fact that the LEDs 19 are arranged exclusively on the upper side 21, so that the underside 22 is available for radiating the heat to the surroundings.

Die Abdeckung 40 ist im Profil C-förmig, wobei eine Profilöffnung 44 durch den Platinenträger 20 verschlossen ist. Mit anderen Worten, das C-förmige Querschnittsprofil der Abdeckung 40 ist auf die Oberseite 21 des Platinenträgers 20 aufgesetzt. Auf diese Weise ist der zuvor genannte Hohlraum 41 einerseits durch die Abdeckung 40 und andererseits durch den Platinenträger 20, insbesondere durch dessen Oberseite 21 in der Umfangsrichtung geschlossen begrenzt.The cover 40 is C-shaped in profile, wherein a profile opening 44 is closed by the platinum carrier 20. In other words, the C-shaped cross-sectional profile of the cover 40 is placed on the top 21 of the board carrier 20. In this way, the aforementioned cavity 41 on the one hand by the cover 40 and on the other hand limited by the platinum carrier 20, in particular closed by the top 21 in the circumferential direction.

Bevorzugt ist die Abdeckung 40 unmittelbar am Platinenträger 20 befestigt. Gezeigt ist im Beispiel eine Clipsverbindung 45, bei der Rastnasen 46, die an sich gegenüberliegenden Wänden des C-förmigen Querschnittsprofils der Abdeckung 40 ausgeformt ist, an entsprechenden Rastkonturen 47 in Eingriff stehen, die zwischen Oberseite 21 und Unterseite 22 an voneinander abgewandten Längsseiten des Platinenträgers 20 ausgeformt sind.Preferably, the cover 40 is attached directly to the platinum carrier 20. Shown in the example is a clip connection 45 in which latching noses 46, which is formed on opposite walls of the C-shaped cross-sectional profile of the cover 40, engage corresponding latching contours 47, which are between the top side 21 and bottom 22 on opposite longitudinal sides of the board carrier 20 are formed.

Im gezeigten Beispiel sind die trägerseitigen Befestigungsmittel 42 durch einen einzigen, zentralen Schraubkanal 48 gebildet, der einander zugewandte, mit einem Rippenprofil oder Sägezahnprofil ausgestattete Kanalwände besitzt, derart, dass in den Schraubkanal 48 zumindest eine Schraube (nicht gezeigt) einschraubbar ist, beispielsweise um im Bereich der lampenseitigen Befestigungsstelle 27 das jeweilige Lampenteil 28 mit dem Platinenträger 20 zu verschrauben.In the example shown, the carrier-side fastening means 42 are formed by a single, central screw 48 having facing each other, equipped with a rib profile or sawtooth channel walls, such that in the screw 48 at least one screw (not shown) can be screwed, for example, in Area of the lamp-side attachment point 27 to screw the respective lamp part 28 to the board carrier 20.

Die elektrischen Anschlussmittel 11 umfassen vorzugsweise zwei lampenseitige elektrische Kontakte 55, die über die zuvor genannten elektrischen Leitungen 43 mit platinenseitigen elektrischen Kontakten 49 elektrisch verbunden sind, die ihrerseits über Leiterbahnen 50 mit den LEDs 19 elektrisch verbunden sind. Die Leiterbahnen 50 sind dabei integral auf der Platine 18 ausgebildet.The electrical connection means 11 preferably comprise two lamp-side electrical contacts 55, which are electrically connected via the aforementioned electrical lines 43 with board-side electrical contacts 49, which in turn are electrically connected via conductor tracks 50 with the LEDs 19. The conductor tracks 50 are integrally formed on the board 18.

Diese lampenseitigen Kontakte 55 können beim Montieren der Lampe 3 dann mit den Sekundäranschlüssen 10 der jeweiligen Halteeinrichtung 4 elektrisch kontaktiert werden.These lamp-side contacts 55 can then be electrically contacted with the secondary terminals 10 of the respective holding device 4 when mounting the lamp 3.

Bevorzugt besitzt die Lampe 3 zumindest an einem ihrer Längsenden 5 eine Endkappe 51, die auf das jeweilige Längsende des Platinenträgers 20 und der Abdeckung 40 aufgesteckt ist.
