  • the housing 18 further comprises a light guide body 90 made of a translucent plastic material and a light emitting diode exit surface 92, wherein the light emitting diode exit surface 92 is provided on the light guide body 90.
  • the connecting element 22 comprises a translucent element 96 and a base element 98, wherein the translucent element 96 or the wall region of the translucent element 96 - as well as the optical fiber body 90 formed on the main body 80 - are formed in cross section in the form of a segment of an ellipse.
  • the light generated or producible by the luminaire 14 or the light-emitting diodes 16 radiates continuously through the light-conducting body 90 and the translucent element 96 of the connecting part 22 into the surroundings of the lighting unit 12 or the lighting system.
  • the light emitting diode exit surface 92 is in the embodiment according to Fig. 6 spaced apart from the inner surface 100 of the wall 21 of the connecting part 22 and the wall of the translucent member 96, but in an alternative embodiment, also on this inner surface 100 abut or lie flat and be integrally connected to this inner surface 100.
  • the main body 80 is received positively in the connecting part 22.
  • the base body 80 has two longitudinal elements 102 extending in the longitudinal direction of the housing 18, which are respectively inserted into longitudinal element receptacles 104 of the base element 98.
  • the connecting part 22 is latchingly connectable with a holding element 68, wherein the Fig. 6 illustrates the locked state.
  • the holding element 68 can be fastened to a building wall by a plurality of screw connections (not illustrated).
  • the connecting part 22 has two latching elements 106 extending in the longitudinal direction of the lighting unit 12, which latching receptacles 108 of the holding element 68 can each be latched by moving the connecting part 22 and the holding element 68 one upon the other.
  • the lighting unit 12 may also have any other design.
  • An exemplary further possible design of a lighting unit 12 of a lighting system according to the invention shows Fig. 7 ,
  • the lighting unit 12 after Fig. 7 differs essentially from the lighting unit 12 after Fig. 6 in that the basic body 80, which likewise has a metal reinforcement 82, has an arcuate wall area.
  • the support member 84 is made of a metallic material, so that the heat generated by the lamp 14 via the support member 84 and the metal reinforcement 82 can be very well dissipated.
  • the 8A to 8C each show schematic sectional views for illustrating the construction of a lighting unit 12 and a one-piece and extruded connecting part 22 of another embodiment of a lighting system.
  • the end portions 24 of the connection parts 22 are received in housing end portions 28 with open interior ends 36.
  • Each connecting part 22 is made of a soft plastic material and lies flat against the inner surface 100 of the housing 18 and is integrally connected to the inner surface 100.
  • the Fig. 9 shows a schematic sectional view for illustrating the formation of a connecting part (22) of a ninth embodiment of a lighting system.
  • the one-piece connecting part 22 consists of a first part 54, a second part 56 and a material web 58.
  • the first and second part 54, 56 are connected to each other by the web of material 58 and about the web material 58 against each other. Further, the first and second part 54, 56 for forming the cavity 27 bounding wall 21 by giving the material web 58 to form a locking connection 116 latching connected to one another.
  • the lighting system 10 after Fig. 10 differs from the above lighting systems essentially by the fact that here a connecting part 22 is provided which connects three light units 12, 13, 29 together.
  • the connecting part is in the form of a T-piece and has a continuous cavity 27.
  • a plurality of connecting parts 22 could be provided in an alternative lighting system, each connecting three light units together.
