Unter Lichtbandsystem oder Lichtband versteht man in diesem Zusammenhang eine langgestreckte Anordnung von einem oder mehreren kollinearen meist wiederum länglichen Leuchtmodulen, die beispielsweise für Beleuchtungsaufgaben in Hallen, Großraumbüros und Supermärkten, meist in Deckenmontage, eingesetzt werden. Dabei wird als Tragschiene häufig ein relativ langes Profil verwendet, in das dann mehrere gleiche oder auch unterschiedliche Leuchtmodulen eingebaut werden, die an die Durchgangsverdrahtung anzuschließen sind. Das Profil der Tragschiene kann einen Bodenbereich und daran angrenzende Seitenbereiche aufweisen. Als Leuchtmittel werden heutzutage bevorzugt LED eingesetzt, die beispielsweise in Leuchtmodulen mit mehreren LED sowie den für den Anschluss an die Netzspannung erforderlichen Betriebsgeräten zusammengefasst sind. Eine Darstellung eines solchen Lichtbandsystems findet sich beispielsweise in
Die Tragschiene ist üblicherweise entweder direkt oder über Zwischenschaltung von Seilabhängungen zur Realisierung einer abgehängten Beleuchtung mit einem Bauträger, vorzugsweise einer Decke, verbunden und führt den von einem Leitungsnetz gespeisten Leitungsnetzstrom durch die Tragschiene, vorzugsweise über mehrere getrennte Leitungen. Das Betriebsgerät wandelt die vorzugsweise als Wechselspannung bereitgestellte Netzspannung des Leitungsnetzes in einen für die Lichtquellen verwendbaren Strom um, heute im zunehmendem Einsatz von LED-Leuchtmitteln, insbesondere LED-Modulen umfassend eine Platinen mit an den jeweiligen Anwendungsfall auf dieser angeordneten LEDs, in einen Gleichstrom von z.B. 30 Volt. Der über das Leitungsnetz bereitgestellte Leitungsnetzstrom stellt im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung die primäre Seite dar, wohingegen der von dem Betriebsgerät gewandelte Strom als sekundäre Seite bzw. sekundärseitig aufgefasst wird. Als Schnittstelle im Sinne der Erfindung ist jede vordefinierte, vorzugsweise standardisierte Verbindungsmöglichkeit für eine Komponente mit einer anderen zu verstehen.The support rail is usually either directly or via the interposition of wire suspensions for the realization of a suspended lighting with a developer, preferably a ceiling, connected and leads fed by a line network power line through the mounting rail, preferably via a plurality of separate lines. The operating device converts the preferably as AC voltage provided mains voltage of the line network in a usable for the light sources current, today in increasing use of LED bulbs, in particular LED modules comprising a board with the respective application on this arranged LEDs, in a direct current of eg 30 volts. For the purposes of the present invention, the line network current provided via the line network represents the primary side, whereas the current converted by the operating device is understood to be a secondary side or a secondary side. As an interface within the meaning of the invention is any predefined, preferably standardized connection option for a component to understand with another.
Eine modulare Beleuchtungseinrichtung der eingangs genannten Art ist aus der
In
Die bekannten Ausführungsformen sind relativ komplex und vordefiniert und lassen sich insofern schwer an geänderte Bedingungen, z. B. die Änderung von Standards anpassen. Ihre Realisierung in der Montage erfordert jedoch einen erheblichen Aufwand, etwa durch die Verwendung einer Mehrzahl von Einzelteilen. Außerdem können bei der Montage leicht Fehler auftreten. Schließlich lässt sich bei diesen Lösungen nur mit großem Aufwand ein Schutz gegen Umweltbedingungen erreichen. Ferner ist die Zuordnung eines Betriebsgeräts für jedes Leuchtmodul erforderlich. Dieses ist relativ komplex im Aufbau und schränkt die gewünschte Modularität im Sinne einer Variabilität ein. Insofern ist die Anpassung dieser Beleuchtungseinrichtung an andere Seh- bzw. Leuchtaufgaben relativ aufwändig und erfordert dafür geschultes Personal.The known embodiments are relatively complex and predefined and can therefore be difficult to change conditions, for. B. adjust the change of standards. However, their realization in the assembly requires considerable effort, such as through the use of a plurality of items. In addition, errors can easily occur during installation. Finally, it is only with great effort to achieve protection against environmental conditions in these solutions. Furthermore, the assignment of an operating device for each light module is required. This is relatively complex in construction and limits the desired modularity in terms of variability. In this respect, the adaptation of this lighting device to other viewing or lighting tasks is relatively complex and requires it trained personnel.
Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese Nachteile zumindest teilweise zu vermeiden und eine modulare Beleuchtungseinrichtung der eingangs genannten Art vorzusehen, die eine verbesserte modulare Bauweise aufweist, also eine besonders variable Gestaltung und Anpassung der Beleuchtungseinrichtung durch Einsatz geänderter Komponenten ermöglicht. Auch ist ein Lichtband anzugeben, das einfacher aufgebaut und zu montieren ist, und das gleichwohl eine individuelle Stromversorgung der einzelnen Leuchtmodulen ermöglicht.Based on this prior art, the present invention seeks to at least partially avoid these disadvantages and to provide a modular lighting device of the type mentioned, which has an improved modular design, thus allowing a particularly variable design and adaptation of the lighting device by using modified components , Also, a light band is specified, which is simpler in design and to assemble, and nevertheless allows an individual power supply of the individual lighting modules.
Die Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein modulares Beleuchtungssystem nach Anspruch 1 und ein Verbindungssystem nach Anspruch 13.The object is achieved by a modular illumination system according to claim 1 and a connection system according to claim 13.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe im Wesentlichen bereits dadurch gelöst, dass die Beleuchtungseinrichtung ferner ein Adaptermodul umfasst, welches ausgebildet ist zur Verbindung mit der Tragschienenschnittstelle und der Leuchtmodulschnittstelle und ferner eine Adapterschnittstelle zur Verbindung mit dem Betriebsgerät umfasst.According to the invention, this object is essentially already achieved in that the illumination device further comprises an adapter module, which is designed for connection to the DIN rail interface and the light module interface and further comprises an adapter interface for connection to the operating device.
Das Adaptermodul umfasst also somit eine dritte Schnittstelle, nämlich die Adapterschnittstelle zur Verbindung mit dem Betriebsgerät. Das Adaptermodul stellt somit mit eine zwischenschaltbare weitere Modulkomponente dar, welche sowohl die Leitungsführung zwischen den Schnittstellen als auch die Anschlusstechnik bzw. Verbindungstechnik realisiert. Damit ist es erstmalig möglich, dass jede Schnittstelle der modularen Beleuchtungseinrichtung getrennt von den anderen auswechselbar und anpassbar ist, z.B. zur Umsetzung eines neuen Standards. Ferner können in dem Adaptermodul beliebig viele Schnittstellen zur Anordnung von mehreren Betriebsgeräten vorgesehen werden bzw. ausgebildet sein. Damit ermöglicht das erfindungsgemäße Adaptermodul eine sehr große Modularität und Anpassungsmöglichkeit einer modularen Beleuchtungseinrichtung. Das Adaptermodul umfasst also neben den drei Schnittstellen auch die erforderliche Leitungsführung (Verdrahtung), womit dieses eine besonders einfache Anpassung des Beleuchtungssystems an geänderte Beleuchtungs- bzw. Sehaufgaben ermöglicht. Durch das Vorsehen und die Zwischenschaltung des Adaptermoduls zwischen Tragschiene, Betriebsgerät und Leuchtmodul sind die einzelnen Module der Beleuchtungseinrichtung beliebig untereinander kombinierbar und auswechselbar. Egal welches Modul verwendet werden soll, dieses kann durch Auswahl eines entsprechenden Adaptermoduls nach Art eines Baukastenprinzips mit den anderen Modulbauteilen zum Aufbau einer gewünschten Leuchte verbunden bzw. ausgewechselt werden. Die Erfindung stellt durch das Adaptermodul damit eine besonders variable modulare Beleuchtungseinrichtung umfassend mehrere verbindbare Module bereit, mit der durch Zusammensetzen dieser Module die Beleuchtungseinrichtung bzw. durch deren Auswechseln die Beleuchtungseinrichtung einfach und schnell an neue Sehaufgaben und/oder an neue Standards angepasst werden kann.Thus, the adapter module thus includes a third interface, namely the adapter interface for connection to the operating device. The adapter module thus represents with an inter-switchable further module component, which implements both the routing between the interfaces and the connection technology or connection technology. This makes it possible for the first time that each interface of the modular lighting device is separate from the others interchangeable and adaptable, eg to implement a new standard. Furthermore, any number of interfaces for arranging a plurality of operating devices can be provided or designed in the adapter module. Thus, the adapter module according to the invention allows a very large modularity and customization of a modular lighting device. In addition to the three interfaces, the adapter module thus also includes the required routing (wiring), which enables this to be particularly easy for the illumination system to be adapted to changing lighting or viewing tasks. By providing and the interposition of the adapter module between mounting rail, operating device and light module, the individual modules of the lighting device can be combined with each other and interchangeable. No matter which module is to be used, this can be connected or replaced by selecting a corresponding adapter module in the manner of a modular principle with the other module components to build a desired light. By means of the adapter module, the invention thus provides a particularly variable modular illumination device comprising a plurality of connectable modules with which the illumination device can be easily and quickly adapted to new visual tasks and / or to new standards by assembling these modules, the illumination device or by its replacement.
Dieses erfolgt vorzugsweise weitestgehend oder vollständig werkzeuglos und ohne Einschaltung von spezialisiertem Fachpersonal, also lediglich durch die Verwendung miteinander verbindbarer Module zur Anpassung bzw. Realisierung der jeweiligen Sehaufgabe.This is preferably done as far as possible or completely without tools and without the involvement of specialized personnel, so only through the use of mutually connectable modules for adaptation or realization of the respective visual task.
Die bevorzugte Ausführung sieht vor, dass die primärseitige Tragschienenschnittstelle innerhalb des Adaptermoduls an eine primärseitige Adapterschnittstelle für das Betriebsgerät geführt wird und nach der Wandelung in dem Betriebsgerät eine von der Primärseite getrennte Sekundärseite der Adapterschnittstellen mit der Leuchtmodulschnittstelle verbunden ist.The preferred embodiment provides that the primary-side mounting rail interface within the adapter module to a primary-side adapter interface for the Operating device is guided and after the conversion in the operating device is separated from the primary side secondary side of the adapter interfaces with the light module interface is connected.
Die Schnittstellen können neben der Stromübertragung ferner zur Datenübertragung von Steuerungsdaten ausgebildet sein, z.B. zur Verbindung einer DALI Steuerleitung ausgebildet sein.The interfaces may, in addition to the current transmission, also be designed for data transmission of control data, e.g. be designed to connect a DALI control line.
Die Verbindung wird besonders einfach gestaltet, wenn die Schnittstellen Steckverbinder umfassen, welche im Wesentlichen durch Ausführen einer einfachen translatorischen Bewegung miteinander verbindbar sind. Diese Steckverbinder umfassen vorzugsweise ein erstes, aufnehmendes Steckerteil, welches an einem ersten Fügepartner vorgesehen ist, und ein komplementär zu dem ersten Steckerteil, zweites in dieses einführbare Steckerteil, welches an dem zweiten Fügepartner vorgesehen ist.The connection is made particularly simple if the interfaces comprise connectors which can be connected to one another essentially by carrying out a simple translatory movement. These plug connectors preferably comprise a first, receiving plug part, which is provided on a first joining partner, and a second plug part, which can be inserted into this second plug part, which is provided on the second joining part, being complementary to the first plug part.
Die Montage wird zusätzlich vereinfacht, wenn die Steckverbinder gleichzeitig die Verbindung für die primärseitige Hochvolt-Spannung von z.B. 220 Volt Wechselstrom und die sekundärseitige Niedervolt-Spannung von z.B. 30 Volt Gleichstrom realisieren, so dass also nicht mehrere Steckverbinder für die Primär- und Sekundäranschlüsse angeschlossen werden müssen.The assembly is further simplified if the connectors simultaneously connect for the primary-side high voltage of e.g. 220 volts AC and the secondary side low voltage voltage of e.g. 30 volts DC, so do not need to connect multiple connectors for the primary and secondary connections.
Zur besseren Realisierung einer Abdichtung gegen Medieneintritt zwischen den Modulen sind die Stecker insbesondere so ausgebildet, dass diese in Einbaulage verdeckt sind durch die Module bzw. deren Gehäuse. Eine schutzartkonforme Verbindung kann zudem dadurch erzielt werden, dass Dichtelemente zwischen den Steckerteilen vorgesehen sind. Diese können z.B. Ringdichtungen umfassen.To better realize a seal against media entry between the modules, the plugs are in particular designed so that they are hidden in the installed position by the modules or their housing. A Schutzartkonforme connection can also be achieved in that sealing elements are provided between the connector parts. These may include, for example, ring seals.
Der erforderliche Bauraum lässt sich reduzieren, indem das Adaptermodul zur Aufnahme des Betriebsgeräts ausgebildet ist, vorzugsweise zur vollständigen, also verbergenden Aufnahme des Betriebsgeräts. Dieses kann z.B. dadurch erfolgen, dass das Adaptermodul als Gehäuse ausgebildet ist, vorzugsweise als einstückiges Spritzgussteil, welches insbesondere kastenförmig ausgebildet sein kann zum Einsetzen einer oder mehrerer Betriebsgeräte sowie weiterer elektrischer Komponenten bzw. Bauteile der modularen Beleuchtungseinrichtung.The required space can be reduced by the adapter module is designed to accommodate the operating device, preferably for complete, ie concealing recording of the operating device. This may e.g. be effected in that the adapter module is designed as a housing, preferably as a one-piece injection molded part, which may be formed in particular box-shaped for inserting one or more operating devices and other electrical components or components of the modular lighting device.
Die bevorzugte Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass die Schnittstellen neben einer elektrischen Verbindung zudem ausgebildet sind, eine mechanische Befestigung des ersten Fügepartners mit dem komplementär zum ersten Fügepartner ausgebildeten zweiten Fügepartner an der jeweiligen Schnittstelle zu verwirklichen. Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform erfolgt dieses dadurch, dass zwischen dem aufnehmenden Steckerteil und dem in dieses einführbare Steckerteil in Einbaulage lagefixierende Rastmittel ausgebildet sind.The preferred embodiment provides that, in addition to an electrical connection, the interfaces are also designed to realize a mechanical fastening of the first joining partner with the second joining partner formed complementary to the first joining partner at the respective interface. In the preferred embodiment, this is done by the fact that between the receiving plug part and the insertable into this plug part in the installation position fixing locking means are formed.
Die Befestigung des Betriebsgeräts an dem Adaptermodul erfolgt vorzugsweise durch eine Schwalbenschwanzverbindung, wobei also zwischen dem Adaptermodul und dem Betriebsgerät jeweils zwei aufnehmende Schwalbenschwanzführungen ausgebildet sind, in welche an dem komplementären Gegenpart ausgebildete Schwalbenschwanzvorsprünge einsetzbar sind.The attachment of the operating device to the adapter module is preferably carried out by a dovetail connection, so in each case two receiving dovetail guides are formed between the adapter module and the operating device, in which formed on the complementary counterpart dovetail projections can be used.
Die Modularität lässt sich weiter dadurch erhöhen, dass die Leuchtmodulschnittstelle auf der Sekundärseite mehrere, getrennte Kanäle umfasst, mit denen getrennt voneinander verschiedene Leuchtmodule betreibbar und steuerbar sind.The modularity can be further increased by the fact that the lighting module interface on the secondary side comprises a plurality of separate channels with which separate lighting modules can be operated and controlled separately from one another.
Die bevorzugte Ausführungsform sieht die Ausbildung des Leuchtmoduls mit LED Leuchtmitteln vor, welche auf einer Leiterplatte zur Umsetzung der jeweiligen Sehaufgabe angeordnet sind. Eine derartige Leiterplatte besteht vorzugsweise aus Fiberglas oder einem anderen laminierten Material, auf deren Oberseite geätzte oder aufgedruckte Leiterbahnen vorgesehen sind, die mit verschiedenen Komponenten, wie Transistoren, Widerständen oder integrierten Schaltkreisen sowie den LEDs bestückt sind.The preferred embodiment provides for the design of the light module with LED bulbs, which on a circuit board to implement the respective visual task are arranged. Such a circuit board is preferably made of fiberglass or other laminated material, on the top of etched or printed printed circuit traces are provided, which are equipped with various components, such as transistors, resistors or integrated circuits and the LEDs.
Durch die Erfindung wird eine modulare Gestaltung von Lichtbändern bzw. Lichtbandleuchten vereinfacht, also sich über längere Abschnitte von mehreren Metern unterhalb einer Decke, z.B. in einem Großraumbüro oder einer Werkhalle, kollinear erstreckende Leuchtmodulen, welche gemäß den Arbeitsstättenrichtlinien eine ausreichende Leuchtstärke für die jeweilige Sehaufgabe und dieses zudem möglichst blendfrei bereitstellen.The invention simplifies a modular design of strip lights, that is, over longer sections of several meters below a ceiling, e.g. in an open-plan office or a workshop, collinearly extending light modules, which according to the workplace guidelines provide sufficient luminosity for the respective visual task and this also possible glare-free.
Zur Erhöhung der Modularität, also der Variabilität in und Anpassung an verschiedene Beleuchtungssituationen kann die Tragschienenschnittstelle auch mehrteilig ausgebildet sein, also mehrere Netzversorgungs-Anschlussmittel umfassen, welche also die Netzversorgung von der Tragschiene abgreifen und zur primärseitigen Betriebsgerät-Schnittstelle weiterleiten, aber daneben auch durch das Adaptermodul an ein weiteres Netzversorgung-Anschlussmittel weiterleiten. Somit kann das Adaptermodul auch zur Durchleitung der primärseitigen Netzversorgung ausgebildet sein, was durch jeweils zwei vorzugsweise identisch ausgebildete Netzversorgungs-Anschlussmittel erfolgen kann, die z.B. an gegenüberliegenden Stirnenden des Adaptermoduls angeordnet sein können.To increase the modularity, so the variability in and adaptation to different lighting situations, the DIN rail interface can also be designed in several parts, ie several power supply connection means comprise, which thus tap the power supply from the mounting rail and forward to the primary-side operating device interface, but also by the Forward adapter module to another power supply connection means. Thus, the adapter module can also be designed for the passage of the primary-side power supply, which can be done by two preferably identically designed power supply connection means, e.g. can be arranged at opposite ends of the adapter module.
Diese Netzversorgungs-Anschlussmittel können lösbar mit dem Adaptermodul verbunden oder in bei der Fertigung in diesem integriert sein, z.B. im Spritzgussprozess. Vorzugsweise verbinden die Netzversorgungs-Anschlussmittel die Tragschiene mit dem Adaptermodul und sind dazu vorzugsweise als Stecker ausgebildet.These power supply connection means can be detachably connected to the adapter module or incorporated into it during production, for example in the injection molding process. Preferably, the power supply connection means connect the mounting rail with the adapter module and are preferably designed as a plug.
Bei einer Weiterentwicklung sind die Verbindungsmittel ferner so ausgebildet, dass jeweils nur abgestimmte Fügepartner miteinander verbindbar sind. Unter abgestimmt ist zu verstehen, dass dann also beispielsweise durch die entsprechenden Verbindungsmittel nur das für das jeweilige Leuchtmodul passende Betriebsgerät verwendbar ist und somit Fehlanschlüsse und Fehlmontagen wirksam ausgeschlossen werden.In a further development, the connecting means are further designed so that only matched joining partners are connected to each other. Sub-tuned to understand that then, for example, by the corresponding connection means only suitable for the respective lighting module operating equipment is used and thus faulty connections and incorrect assembly are effectively excluded.
Die Verbindungsmittel können z.B. eine Schwalbenschwanzführung zwischen dem Adaptermodul und dem Betriebsgerät umfassen, wobei das Betriebsgerät vorzugsweise in das Adaptermodul einschiebbar ausgebildet ist zur Verwirklichung der Befestigung der beiden Fügepartner. Bevorzugt sind die elektrischen Verbindungsmittel, insbesondere Steckverbinder, so ausgebildet bzw. angeordnet, dass eine elektrische Verbindung erst in der End- bzw. Einbaulage erfolgt.The connection means may e.g. a dovetail guide between the adapter module and the operating device include, wherein the operating device is preferably designed insertable into the adapter module for realizing the attachment of the two joining partners. Preferably, the electrical connection means, in particular plug-in connectors, are designed and arranged such that an electrical connection only takes place in the final or installation position.
Das Adaptermodul kann eine weitere Schnittstelle zur Datenübertragung zwischen dem mindestens einen LED-Modul und einem Steuerungsmodul umfassen, z.B. für DALI-Steuergeräte, z.B. zur Erfassung und Steuerung der Helligkeit und oder Steuerung der Beleuchtungseinrichtung.The adapter module may comprise a further interface for data transmission between the at least one LED module and a control module, e.g. for DALI controllers, e.g. for detecting and controlling the brightness and / or control of the illumination device.
Es ist ferner vorteilhaft, wenn die Module der Beleuchtungseinrichtung SELV-kompatibel ausgebildet sind.It is also advantageous if the modules of the lighting device are SELV-compatible.
IP-Schutzklassen können mit der modularen Beleuchtungseinrichtung insbesondere dadurch realisiert werden, dass die Schnittstellen bzw. die Verbindungen zwischen den Modulen abgesichert ausgebildet sind, also angepasst sind zur Erfüllung einer für den jeweiligen Einsatzfall benötigten Schutzklasse zum Schutz von Menschen gegen potenzielle Gefährdung bei der Benutzung unter verschiedenen Umgebungsbedingungen. Für Feuchträume erfolgt dieses durch Verwendung von Dichtelementen, z.B.IP protection classes can be realized with the modular illumination device in particular by the fact that the interfaces or the connections between the modules are protected, so adapted to fulfill a required for the particular application protection class for the protection of people against potential danger during use different environmental conditions. For wet rooms, this is done by using sealing elements, eg
Dichtringen, welche dichtend in die Schnittstellen einsetzbar sind.Sealing rings, which can be used sealingly in the interfaces.
Zur Erfindung gehört auch ein Verbindungssystem nach Anspruch 13.The invention also includes a connection system according to claim 13.
Wenn das Verbindungssystem nur starre, miteinander unbeweglich verbindbare Teile umfasst, stellt es neben der elektrischen gleichzeitig auch eine mechanische Verbindung zwischen dem Adaptermodul, gegebenenfalls mit der Leuchtmodul, und der Tragschiene her. Diese Verbindung ist bei der Montage sehr einfach herzustellen. Man braucht nur die drei Teile des Verbindungssystems zusammenzustecken.If the connection system comprises only rigid, mutually immovably connectable parts, it provides not only the electrical but also a mechanical connection between the adapter module, possibly with the light module, and the mounting rail forth. This connection is very easy to produce during assembly. All you have to do is plug the three parts of the connection system together.

Diese Mittel können Formschluss bewirken, beispielsweise elastische Rastverbindungen zwischen Anschlussteil und Verbindungsteil einerseits und zwischen Verbindungsteil und Geräteteil andererseits sein. Auch kraftschlüssige Verbindungen, beispielsweise durch elastische Dichtungen zwischen den Kragen des Verbindungsteils und den Steckeraufnahmen des Anschluss- und Geräteteils sind möglich. Durch eine solche Verbindung kann der Adaptermodul mit der Leuchtmodul mechanisch mit der Tragschiene verbunden werden.In a preferred embodiment of the connection system according to the invention means are provided which allow connections between the three components connecting part, device part, connecting part. These means can cause positive locking, for example, be elastic locking connections between the connecting part and connecting part on the one hand and between the connecting part and the device part on the other hand. Also non-positive connections, for example by elastic seals between the collar of the connecting part and the plug receptacles of the connection and device part are possible. By such a connection, the adapter module with the light module can be mechanically connected to the mounting rail.
Die Durchgangsverdrahtung ist vorzugsweise durch ein Flachbandkabel realisiert, das auf dem Bodenabschnitt der Tragschiene aufliegt.The through-wiring is preferably realized by a ribbon cable, which rests on the bottom portion of the support rail.
Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die Steckeraufnahmen des Anschlussteils auf der der Durchgangsverdrahtung zugewandten Seite mit Schneidklemmen versehen, welche beim Anbringen die Isolierung der Leiter in der Durchgangsverdrahtung durchdringen und so den Kontakt herstellen können. Hierzu sind vorteilhaft zur Gewährleistung der Schutzart die Durchführungen für die Durchgangsverdrahtung im Anschlussteil abgedichtet. Dazu kann das Anschlussteil bekannter Weise aus einem Basisteil, welches die Durchgangsverdrahtung aufnimmt, und einem Aufsteckteil, das die Kontakte umfasst, so dass diese mit ihren Schneiden beim Aufstecken des Aufsteckteil auf das Basisteil die Isolierung der Leiter in der Durchgangsverdrahtung durchdringen und den Kontakt herstellen können.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the plug receptacles of the connection part are provided on the through-wiring side with insulation displacement terminals which, when attached, penetrate the insulation of the conductors in the through-wiring and thus the contact can produce.

Die Steckkontakte weisen an dem zur Durchgangsverdrahtung zeigenden Ende Schneiden auf, die beim Aufstecken des Verbindungsteils auf das Anschlussteil so geführt werden, dass sie die Isolierung der Leitungen in der Durchgangsverdrahtung durchdringen und so den Kontakt mit den Steckkontakten herstellen.In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting part is provided only with guide openings for the corresponding plug contacts of the connecting part. The plug contacts have at the pointing end for through-wiring cutting, which are performed when attaching the connecting part to the connector so that they penetrate the insulation of the wires in the through-wiring and so make contact with the plug contacts.
Bei noch einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann das Geräteteil mit dem die Steckeraufnahmen aufweisenden Ende von innen nach außen durch die Stirnwand des Adaptermoduls durchgesteckt werden. Durch das Aufstecken des Verbindungsteils ist dieses dann ohne weiteres formschlüssig mit dem Adaptermodul verbunden.In yet another preferred embodiment of the invention, the device part can be pushed through with the end having the plug receptacles from inside to outside through the end wall of the adapter module.

- DALI line (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface).
Bei einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist das Verbindungssystem mit einer Phasenwahleinrichtung versehen. Solche Phasenwahleinrichtungen sind an sich bekannt und beispielsweise in
Vorzugsweise umfasst das erfindungsgemäße Verbindungssystem Dichtungen, um das Eindringen von Staub und Strahlwasser durch die Spalte zwischen Anschlussteil und Verbindungsteil bzw. Verbindungsteil und Geräteteil abzudichten. Dadurch wird die Schutzart IP 65 sichergestellt.Preferably, the connection system according to the invention comprises seals to seal the penetration of dust and jet water through the gaps between the connection part and connection part or connecting part and device part. This ensures degree of protection IP 65.
Im einfachsten Fall ist die Dichtung eine Ringdichtung, die in den die Steckkontakte umgebenden Kragen beispielsweise am Verbindungsteil eingelegt wird, und die so bemessen ist, dass nach dem Einführen der Steckeraufnahme in den Kragen ein dichtender Presssitz entsteht. Um ein unbeabsichtigtes Verschieben der Ringdichtung zu verhindern, kann diese in eine Nut im Innern des Kragens oder auch am Umfang der Steckeraufnahme eingelegt werden.In the simplest case, the seal is a ring seal, which is inserted into the collar surrounding the plug contacts, for example, on the connecting part, and which is dimensioned so that after insertion of the connector receptacle in the collar, a sealing interference fit arises. To prevent inadvertent displacement of the ring seal, this can be inserted into a groove in the interior of the collar or on the circumference of the connector receptacle.
Alternativ kann die Dichtung auch als Lippendichtung ausgebildet sein. Eine weitere Alternative ist eine Einsteckdichtung, die beispielsweise als passender Block in den Kragen des Steckers einführbar ist und Öffnungen für die Steckkontakte aufweist. Es kann vorkommen, dass das Verbindungssystem weniger Steckkontakte und korrespondierende Steckeraufnahmen aufweist als maximal möglich sind. Für diesen Fall sind die Öffnungen der Blockdichtung Vielseitiger verwendbar ist diese Blockdichtung zunächst mittels Durchstoßlippen verschlossen, die beim Anschließen nur von den vorhandenen Steckkontakten durchstoßen werden.Alternatively, the seal may also be formed as a lip seal. Another alternative is a plug-in seal which can be inserted, for example, as a matching block in the collar of the plug and having openings for the plug contacts. It may happen that the connection system has fewer plug contacts and corresponding plug receptacles than are possible at maximum. For this case, the openings of the block seal Versatile used this block seal is first closed by piercing lips, which are pierced when connecting only from the existing plug contacts.
Zu Erfindung gehört auch ein Verbindungssystem, dass sich im erfindungsgemäßen Lichtband verwenden lässt und das ein Anschlussteil, ein Verbindungsteil und ein Geräteteil wie sie oben beschrieben sind umfasst.The invention also includes a connection system which can be used in the light band according to the invention and which comprises a connection part, a connection part and a device part as described above.
Insbesondere gehört zu Erfindung auch ein Verbindungsteil zur Verwendung in diesem Verbindungssystem, das einen ersten, senkrecht zur Durchgangsverdrahtung ausrichtbaren Abschnitt mit einem ersten Kragen, einen zweiten, senkrecht vom ersten abgewinkelten Abschnitt mit einem zweiten Kragen sowie Kontaktstifte, die innerhalb des Verbindungsteils von dem Bereich im ersten Kragen in den Bereich im zweiten Kragen verlaufen.In particular, the invention also includes a connector for use in this connector system comprising a first portion perpendicular to the through-wiring portion having a first collar, a second portion perpendicularly angled from the first portion having a second collar, and contact pins disposed within the connector portion of the portion in FIG first collar in the area in the second collar run.
Weitere Vorteile der Erfindung bestehen darin, dass die Lichtbandsysteme aus einer geringen Zahl standardisierter Bauteile bzw. Baugruppen montiert werden können, wobei der unabhängige Betrieb der einzelnen Leuchtmodulen weiter möglich ist. Beispielsweise können Anschlussteil und Geräteteil in jeweils einheitlicher Form für Lichtbänder unterschiedlicher Größe, beispielsweise unterschiedlicher Tiefe des Profils, hergestellt werden und nur das Verbindungsteil individuell der konkreten Ausführungsform angepasst sein. Dadurch ergibt sich eine Kostensenkung für die Herstellung und Vorratshaltung der Bauteile.Further advantages of the invention are that the lighting systems can be assembled from a small number of standardized components or assemblies, the independent operation of the individual lighting modules is still possible. For example, the connection part and the device part can be produced in each case in a uniform shape for light bands of different sizes, for example different depths of the profile, and only the connecting part can be individually adapted to the specific embodiment. This results in a cost reduction for the production and stockpiling of components.
