Der Verbindungsschenkel weist eine Durchtrittsöffnung auf, wobei das Kontaktierungselement und das LED-Leuchtmodul derart elektrisch leitend und dabei reversibel lösbar miteinander verbunden angeordnet sind, dass diese elektrische Verbindung die Durchtrittsöffnung durchsetzt.According to the invention, a luminaire is provided, which has a carrier element with an elongated, in cross-section U-shaped receiving area, which comprises a first U-leg and a second U-leg and a connecting legs connecting the two U-legs.

Vorteilhaft weist das Kontaktierungselement 6 hierzu eine Buchse 62 für diese elektrische Verbindung zu dem LED-Leuchtmodul 4 auf. Die Buchse 62 kann dabei so angeordnet sein, dass sie in die Durchtrittsöffnung 34 hineinragt oder Letztere durchsetzt. Das LED-Leuchtmodul 4 weist in diesem Fall dementsprechend einen Stecker 42 für die elektrische Verbindung auf, der - im betriebsbereiten Zustand - in die Buchse 62 eingesteckt ist.Preferably, the electrical connection between the contacting
Vorzugsweise ist die Leuchte weiterhin so gestaltet, dass das LED-Leuchtmodul 4 werkzeuglos reversibel lösbar an dem Trägerelement 2 gehaltert angeordnet ist. Hierdurch ist eine besonders einfache Handhabung beim Zusammenbau der Leuchte und gegebenenfalls bei einem Austausch des LED-Leuchtmoduls 4 ermöglicht. Diese Halterung kann beispielsweise in Form einer Magnethalterung und/oder einer Federhalterung oder über eine Rastverbindung ausgestaltet vorgesehen sein.

Das Trägerelement 2 besteht vorzugsweise aus einem Metall, insbesondere aus einem gut wärmeleitenden Metall, beispielsweise aus Aluminium. Für eine besonders geeignete Abfuhr von Wärme, die bei einem Betrieb der Leuchte durch die wenigstens eine LED 5 erzeugt wird, weist das Trägerelement 2 eine, insbesondere nach unten weisende plane Kontaktfläche 21 auf und das LED-Leuchtmodul 4 einen, insbesondere nach oben weisenden planen Oberflächenbereich 41, wobei der plane Oberflächenbereich 41 wärmeleitend die plane Kontaktfläche 21 kontaktierend angeordnet ist. Insbesondere kann das LED-Leuchtmodul 4 eine nach oben weisende Außenwand 43 aufweisen, durch die der Oberflächenbereich 41 gebildet ist, wobei die Außenwand 43 aus einem gut wärmeleitenden Metall besteht, beispielsweise aus Aluminium.The
Im gezeigten Beispiel ist der Magnet 45 des LED-Leuchtmoduls 4 so an der Außenwand 43 angeordnet, dass er sich über den Oberflächenbereich 41 hinaus nach oben vorstehend erstreckt. Vorzugsweise ist an der entsprechend korrespondierenden Stelle des Trägerelements 2 eine entsprechende (in den Figuren nicht gezeigte) Ausnehmung vorgesehen, in welche der Magnet 45 derart eingreift, dass der plane Oberflächenbereich 41 der Außenwand 43 flächig die plane Kontaktfläche 21 des Trägerelements 2 kontaktieren kann.In the example shown, the

Wie im gezeigten Beispiel der Fall ist das Trägerelement 2 vorzugsweise profilartig gestaltet, wobei es einen horizontalen Hauptschenkel aufweist, durch den sowohl der Verbindungsschenkel 33 gebildet ist, als auch der Boden der Ausnehmung 22. Hierdurch ist ein besonders geeigneter Wärmeabtransport ermöglicht. Dabei ist die Ausnehmung 22 vorteilhaft breiter als der Aufnahmebereich 3, beispielsweise mindestens doppelt so breit, wobei durch das Trägerelement 2 zu beiden Seiten des Aufnahmebereichs 3 Außenflächen der Leuchte gebildet sind, so dass auf diese Weise ein besonders effektiver Abtransport von Wärme in einen Außenbereich der Leuchte ermöglicht ist.As in the example shown, the
Vorzugsweise erstreckt sich die Ausnehmung 22 über die gesamte Länge der Leuchte. Zum Abschluss der Ausnehmung 22 an den beiden längsseitigen Endbereichen der Leuchte können dabei Endkappen vorgesehen sein.Preferably, the recess 22 extends over the entire length of the lamp. At the end of the recess 22 at the two longitudinal end portions of the lamp end caps may be provided.
Wie aus
Im gezeigten Beispiel ist die Ausnehmung 22 länglich, insbesondere parallel zur Längsachse L gestaltet, wobei sie zwei seitliche Begrenzungswände 221, 222 aufweist, die sich ebenfalls parallel zur Längsachse L, vorzugsweise senkrecht nach unten erstrecken. Das LED-Leuchtmodul 4 weist dabei vorteilhaft zwei Seitenwände 48, 49 auf, wobei die Gestaltung derart ist, dass die Begrenzungswände 221, 222 der Ausnehmung 22 insbesondere als Führungsflächen zur Führung der Seitenwände 48, 49 des LED-Leuchtmoduls 4 beim Befestigen des LED-Leuchtmoduls 4 am Trägerelement 2 ausgestaltet sind. Hierdurch lässt sich besonders geeignet eine Lagesicherung des LED-Leuchtmoduls 4 in einer Richtung quer zur Längsachse L erzielen. Das LED-Leuchtmodul 4 kann beispielsweise insgesamt eine etwa quaderförmige Form aufweisen, wobei die Außenwand 43 die obere Deckfläche des Quaders bildet und die zwei Seitenwände 48, 49 zwei Seitenwände des Quaders.In the example shown, the recess 22 is elongated, in particular designed parallel to the longitudinal axis L , wherein it has two

Hierzu ist das weitere LED-Leuchtmodul 4' vorteilhaft mit Bezug auf die Längsachse L benachbart zu dem zuerst genannten LED-Leuchtmodul 4 angeordnet.For this purpose, the further LED lighting module 4 'is advantageously arranged with respect to the longitudinal axis L adjacent to the first-mentioned
Insbesondere kann die Leuchte insgesamt mehr als zwei entsprechend gestaltete LED-Leuchtmodule aufweisen, die entlang der Längsachse L eine Linie bildend angeordnet sind, wie dies in
Ein besonders einfacher Zusammenbau der Leuchte bzw. ein besonders einfaches Einsetzen der LED-Leuchtmodule ist dabei ermöglicht, wenn die Leuchte so gestaltet ist, dass das wenigstens eine weitere LED-Leuchtmodul 4' ebenfalls in der Ausnehmung 22 eingesetzt angeordnet ist. Dementsprechend sind die LED-Leuchtmodule der Leuchte vorteilhaft alle mit derselben Form gestaltet.A particularly simple assembly of the lamp or a particularly simple insertion of the LED lighting modules is made possible when the lamp is designed so that the at least one further LED lighting module 4 'is also arranged inserted in the recess 22. Accordingly, the LED lighting modules of the lamp are advantageously all designed with the same shape.
Die Leuchte kann weiterhin vorteilhaft anstelle eines LED-Leuchtmoduls ein Element mit einer anderen Funktion aufweisen, beispielsweise ein Blindstück oder ein Sensorelement u.s.w.The luminaire can furthermore advantageously have an element with a different function instead of an LED luminous module, for example a dummy piece or a sensor element, etc.
Des Weiteren kann gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung vorgesehen sein, dass zumindest einige der LED-Leuchtmodule 4, 4' wahlweise in unterschiedlichen Orientierungen, insbesondere in zwei um 180° Grad verdrehten Orientierungen an dem Trägerelement 2 angeordnet werden können. Dies ist insbesondere dann sinnvoll, wenn die optischen Elemente, also beispielsweise die Linsen des LED-Leuchtmoduls 4 derart ausgebildet sind, dass sie eine asymmetrische Lichtabgabe bewirken. In diesem Fall sollten nämlich die jeweils an den Endbereichen des Trägerelements 2 befindlichen LED-Leuchtmodule 4 jeweils in unterschiedlichen Orientierungen angeordnet sein, um insgesamt gesehen wieder eine symmetrische Lichtabgabe für die Leuchte zu bewirken.Furthermore, according to an advantageous development of the invention, it can be provided that at least some of the
Die Möglichkeit zur wahlweisen Anordnung eines LED-Leuchtmoduls 4 kann in einfacher Weise dadurch eröffnet werden, dass das Leuchtmodul 4 zwei, vorzugsweise jeweils um 180° verdreht zueinander angeordnete Stecker 42 aufweist. Bei dem in
Im Fall von mehreren LED-Leuchtmodulen weist die Leuchte vorzugsweise zur Stromversorgung der LED-Leuchtmodule und auch zur Übertragung von Steuersignalen an die LED-Leuchtmodule eine interne Verdrahtung, insbesondere in Form eines Kabelbaums auf, die in dem Aufnahmebereich 3 verlaufend angeordnet ist. Hierdurch lässt sich die interne Verdrahtung besonders geschützt anordnen. Außerdem lässt sich auf diese Weise erzielen, dass die interne Verdrahtung bei typischer Betrachtung der Leuchte nicht zu sehen ist, insbesondere auch nicht bei abgenommenem LED-Leuchtmodul. In diesem Fall ist lediglich der Blick auf das Kontaktierungselement 6 freigegeben, wie in der
Für eine vorteilhafte elektrische Verbindung zwischen der internen Verdrahtung und dem Kontaktierungselement 6 weist Letzteres vorzugsweise Lötkontakte 62 oder Schneidklemmen oder dergleichen auf. Diese sind vorzugsweise auf der Platine 6 ausgebildet.For an advantageous electrical connection between the internal wiring and the contacting

Als Lichtquelle kann das Indirekt-Leuchtmodul 7 wenigstens eine LED, beispielsweise einen LED-Streifen aufweisen, der vorteilhaft in dem Grundkörper angeordnet ist.

Beim oben beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Leuchte länglich und stellt insoweit eine Langfeldleuchte dar. Allerdings ist die erfindungsgemäße Leuchte nicht auf diese Formgestaltung eingeschränkt. Es kann beispielsweise auch vorgesehen sein, dass das Trägerelement bzw. das Basisgehäuse anstelle einer länglichen Form eine rechteckige oder quadratische oder runde Grundform aufweist.In the embodiment described above, the lamp is elongated and represents a long-field lamp so far. However, the lamp according to the invention is not limited to this design. It can also be provided, for example, that the carrier element or the base housing instead of an elongated shape has a rectangular or square or round basic shape.
Weiterhin handelt es sich bei der oben beschriebene Leuchte um eine Pendelleuchte. Auch dies ist nicht jedoch beschränkend. Die Leuchte kann beispielsweise auch als Deckeneinbauleuchte, als Anbauleuchte, als Downlight, als Wandleuchte, als Stehleuchte etc. gestaltet sein.Furthermore, the luminaire described above is a pendant luminaire. Again, this is not limiting. The light can also be used as a Ceiling recessed luminaire, as a surface-mounted luminaire, as a downlight, as a wall lamp, as a floor lamp, etc.
Die Basis des LED-Leuchtmoduls bietet die Möglichkeit der vielfältigen Varianz der Leuchten-Bauform in Abhängigkeit von der Modulgröße des LED-Leuchtmoduls.The basis of the LED lighting module offers the possibility of the varied variance of the luminaire design as a function of the module size of the LED luminaire module.
