Die Lichtleiterplatte 25 weist zwei große Hauptoberflächen auf, die über kleine, randseitige Schmalflächen miteinander verbunden sind. Die LED-Lichtquelle 26 ist dabei derart angeordnet, dass das Licht über eine Schmalseite der Lichtleiterplatte 25 in Letztere eingestrahlt wird. Im gezeigten Beispiel umfasst die LED-Lichtquelle 26 eine Platine, auf der mehrere LEDs, vorzugsweise längs einer horizontalen Gerade verlaufend, angeordnet sind.In the embodiment shown, the
Vorzugsweise ist dabei die LED-Lichtquelle 26 relativ zu der Lichtleiterplatte 25 verschiebbar gelagert angeordnet, insbesondere verschiebbar gegenüber dem Trägerblech 23. Die LED-Lichtquelle 26 kann insbesondere an einem LED-Lichtquellen-Trägerelement 27 angeordnet sein, das verschiebbar gegenüber dem Trägerblech 23 gelagert angeordnet ist.Preferably, the
Beim gezeigten Beispiel ist diese Lagerung derart, dass die LED-Lichtquelle 26 durch das LED-Lichtquellen-Trägerelement 27 auf diejenige Schmalseite der Lichtleiterplatte 25 zu verschoben werden kann, durch die das Licht in Letztere eingestrahlt wird. Dabei ist das LED-Lichtquellen-Trägerelement 27 so geformt, dass es zur Halterung der Lichtleiterplatte 21 dient; hierzu kann es insbesondere in der für den Betrieb der Leuchte vorgesehenen Stellung die Lichtleiterplatte 25 randseitig umfassen. In
Beim gezeigten Beispiel weist die Leuchte weiterhin eine lichtdurchlässige Abdeckscheibe 5 auf, durch die hindurch das Licht von der Leuchte nach außen abgegeben wird, so dass also durch die Abdeckscheibe 5 eine Lichtabgabefläche der Leuchte gebildet ist. Diese Abdeckscheibe 5 ist dabei an dem Rahmenelement 3 abgestützt angeordnet.In the example shown, the lamp further comprises a
Vorzugsweise weisen die Profilelemente 35 des Rahmenelements 3 hierzu jeweils einen horizontalen Schenkel 32 auf, auf dem die Abdeckscheibe 5 aufliegend gelagert angeordnet ist. Dieser Schenkel 32 kann sehr schmal gestaltet sein, da er nicht als Angriffselement für Verbindungselemente wie beispielsweise Schrauben dienen muss. Beispielsweise kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Schenkel 32 eine Breite aufweist, die maximal 8 mm beträgt. Die Leuchte kann hierdurch vorteilhaft so gestaltet werden, dass sie einen besonders schmalen sichtbaren Rand aufweist.For this purpose, the
Mit der Leuchte lässt sich also ein besonders gutes Verhältnis zwischen der Größe der Lichtabgabefläche und dem sichtbaren Rahmen der Leuchte erzielen.With the lamp, therefore, a particularly good ratio between the size of the light emitting surface and the visible frame of the lamp can be achieved.
Im gezeigten Beispiel ist raum- und materialsparend die Abdeckscheibe 5 durch die Lichterzeugungseinheit 2 lagefixiert angeordnet. Insbesondere weist hierzu das LED-Lichtquellen-Trägerelement 27 eine nach unten weisende Anlagefläche 271 auf, die die Abdeckscheibe 5 in ihrer Lage von oben sichert.In the example shown, space and material saving the
Weiterhin weist die Leuchte vorteilhaft ein vorzugsweise plattenförmiges optisches Element 6 auf, das planparallel zu der Abdeckscheibe 5 angeordnet ist und das ebenfalls an dem Rahmenelement 3 abgestützt angeordnet ist. Dabei kann es sich bei diesem optischen Element 6 insbesondere um ein optisches Element zur Lichtlenkung, beispielsweise um eine Prismenplatte handeln. Hierdurch lässt sich das von der Leuchte abgegebene Licht vorteilhaft entblenden.Furthermore, the lamp advantageously has a preferably plate-shaped
Im gezeigten Beispiel weist die Leuchte außerdem noch ein weiteres, vorzugsweise plattenförmiges optisches Element 7 auf, das ebenfalls planparallel zu der Abdeckscheibe 5 angeordnet ist und das ebenfalls an dem Rahmenelement 3 abgestützt angeordnet ist. Hierbei kann es sich insbesondere um eine Diffusor-Platte oder eine Diffusor-Folie handeln. Wenn das weitere optische Element 7 diffus wirkend gestaltet ist, lässt sich eine besonders homogene Ausleuchtung der Lichtabgabefläche bis zum Rand hin erzielen.In the example shown, the lamp also has another, preferably plate-shaped optical element 7, which is also arranged plane-parallel to the
Im gezeigten Beispiel werden die Abdeckscheibe 5, das optische Element 6 und das weitere optische Element 7 durch Andruck der Anlagefläche 271 des das LED-Lichtquellen-Trägerelement 27 von oben fixiert gehalten.In the example shown, the
Durch die beschriebene Gestaltung der Leuchte lässt sich eine sehr homogene Ausleuchtung der Lichtabgabefläche erzielen, insbesondere eine gute Ausleuchtung bis zum Randbereich der Lichtabgabefläche hin.The described design of the luminaire makes it possible to achieve a very homogeneous illumination of the light emission surface, in particular a good illumination up to the edge region of the light emission surface.
Zum Zusammenbau der Lichterzeugungseinheit 2 lässt sich das Federelement 22 an dem Trägerblech 23 vormontieren. Die Leuchte ist vorzugsweise so gestaltet, dass sowohl die Lichterzeugungseinheit 2, als auch das Rahmenelement 3 in der Fertigung jeweils separat vormontiert werden können. Anschließend lassen sich die beiden genannten Teile dann zusammenbauen, und zwar ohne, dass hierfür ein weiteres Teil erforderlich wäre, also insbesondere schraubenlos und vorzugsweise ohne Zuhilfenahme eines Werkzeugs. Die Leuchte kann insbesondere weiterhin so gestaltet sein, dass sie aus der Lichterzeugungseinheit 2 und dem Rahmenelement 3 besteht, also keine weiteren Teile umfasst.To assemble the
Zum Lösen des Rahmenelements 3 von der Lichterzeugungseinheit 2 kann ein Spezialwerkzeug vorgesehen sein, mit dem sich die Schulterfläche 21 entsprechend nach innen biegen lässt.For releasing the frame element 3 from the
