Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a light or an electrical unit that is provided for connection to a mounting rail, the mounting rail having a mounting rail profile with two side walls and at least one conductor rail arranged in the mounting rail profile with lines that can be contacted.
  • Support rails with a support rail profile and a busbar held in the support rail profile are known from the prior art and are used, for example, to implement elongated so-called continuous lighting systems.
  • a well-known light line system is sold by the applicant under the name "TECTON" and is characterized in that lights or other electrical loads can be flexibly positioned on the mounting rail over the entire length of the system. This is made possible by the fact that due to a special mounting of the lines of the busbar, these are accessible to consumers over essentially the entire length of the continuous lighting system, so that the lines can be contacted not only at fixed positions, but at any point.
  • the WO 2001/091250 A1 such a lighting system.
  • two conductor rails are arranged opposite one another on the two side walls of a U-shaped carrier rail profile that is open at the bottom.
  • the lines of the busbars are then contacted by the lamp or consumer having a rotatable contacting element, which is inserted into the mounting rail from the underside and then rotated by approximately 45°.
  • Contacts arranged on the contacting element are designed in such a way that they are pivoted out to the side as a result of the twisting and ultimately contact the lines of the busbars in the twisted state.
  • the rotatable contacting elements described above were designed and mounted on the lamp or the electrical load in such a way that they could be actuated by a user from below the lamp, ie rotated.
  • the lamp or a carrier element of the lamp or the consumer was then attached to the mounting rail from the underside, in which case the contacting element or elements was/were twisted in this state resting on the mounting rail.
  • the contacting elements had to be accessible for actuation from the underside of the light or the consumer, which usually did not pose a problem, since elongated fluorescent lamps were usually used as the light sources, which were only switched on after the light was attached to the mounting rail could easily be used by the consumer in the sockets of the lamp.
  • LEDs or LED circuit boards are predominantly used as illuminants in lighting technology, even in the case of luminaires that are intended for use with such mounting rails. Since the subsequent arrangement of LED lamps on a luminaire is not sensible or possible and, moreover, a uniform light output can only be achieved if the LEDs are arranged more or less continuously and evenly distributed over the entire length of the light line system, it is usually no longer possible to design the rotatable contacting elements explained above in such a way that they are accessible from the underside.
  • FIG. 4 Such a solution known from the prior art is in figure 4 shown, with the elongate carrier element 110 of a so-called bar light 100 being visible here first, on which a contacting element 120 is rotatably mounted.
  • the carrier element 110 present in the form of a profile element must be attached to the support rail of the continuous lighting system from the underside—not shown—and then the contacting element 120 must be rotated in order to mount the luminaire 100 .
  • the carrier element 110 has side walls 111 on both longitudinal sides, an elongated slot 112 being formed on one side wall 111, through which the end region of a lever 125 connected to the contacting element 120 protrudes.
  • the lever 125 can be pivoted along the slot 112 between the two positions shown, with a corresponding rotation of the contacting element 120 then also taking place.
  • Contacts 122 of the contacting element 120 which are arranged on the outer circumference of the base body 121, are then swung out to the side in this case, so that they rest against the lines of the busbars come.
  • mechanical locking elements are also swiveled out, which engage behind corresponding projections of the mounting rail profile, so that in addition to the electrical contacting, the luminaire 100 is also mechanically fastened to the mounting rail.
  • the lever 125 project laterally to a certain extent in order to allow a comfortable actuation of the contacting element 120.
  • the lateral slit 112 represents a permanent opening and thus a problem if the luminaire 100 is to be protected from the ingress of dust and/or moisture in order to meet the requirements of a so-called IP protection class.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of offering an alternative possibility of reliably contacting the lines of a busbar positioned in a mounting rail profile, with the aim of avoiding the disadvantages mentioned above.
  • connection contacts are now not arranged on a rotatable body, but are part of a linearly laterally adjustable contact block, which can be moved between an open position, in which the contacting element can be inserted and removed from the mounting rail profile, and a contacting position, in which the contact block can be connected to the connection contacts is extended laterally to contact the lines, is adjustable.
  • a light or an electrical unit for a mounting rail which has a mounting rail profile with two side walls and at least one busbar, which is arranged on one of the two inner sides of the side walls of the mounting rail profile and has lines that can be electrically contacted, with the Luminaire or the electrical unit has a contacting element for electrical and, if necessary, mechanical connection to the mounting rail, and wherein the contacting element can be inserted into the mounting rail profile and has connection contacts, which are adjustable so that when the contacting element is in contact with lines when it is inserted into the mounting rail profile to get to the power rail.
  • the contacting element has at least one linearly laterally adjustable contact block with at least one connection contact, which can be positioned between an open position, in which the contacting element can be inserted and removed from the mounting rail profile, and a contacting position, in which the contact block with the connection contact can be laterally contacted for contacting the Lines is extended, is adjustable.
  • a contacting element for the electrical and mechanical connection of a lamp or an electrical unit to a mounting rail, which has a mounting rail profile with two side walls and at least one busbar, which is arranged on one of the two inner sides of the side walls of the mounting rail profile and has lines that can be electrically contacted , wherein the contacting element can be inserted into the mounting rail profile and has connecting contacts, which are adjustably mounted so that when the contacting element is inserted into the mounting rail profile, it comes into contact with lines of the busbar, and wherein, according to the invention, the contacting element has at least one linearly laterally adjustable contact block with at least has a connection contact, which can be adjusted between an open position, in which the contacting element can be inserted and removed from the support profile, and a contacting position, in which the contact block with the connection contact is extended laterally for contacting the lines.
  • the contacting element is preferably made to have two contact blocks with connection contacts pointing in opposite directions, with both contact blocks being coupled in such a way that, starting from the open position, they can be transferred into the contacting position, moving away from one another.
  • This configuration is particularly useful when corresponding conductor rails are arranged on both side walls of the mounting rail, as is the case, for example, with the "TECTON" system mentioned above.
  • Both contact blocks can then move in opposite directions or towards one another in order to transfer the contacting element from a state in which it can be inserted into the mounting rail or removed from the mounting rail, into a state in which the lines of the busbars be contacted to carry out.
  • Both contact blocks can advantageously interact with one another in order to use the linear movement according to the invention for contacting the lines.
  • the two contact blocks are connected to one another via articulated arms that form a parallel guide.
  • the two contact blocks are mounted pretensioned in the contacting position, with suitable pressing or actuating elements being arranged on the contacting element or a carrier element of the lamp or the electrical unit, which enable the contact blocks to be manually pressed together into the open position .
  • the two contact blocks only have to be temporarily pressed together for inserting or removing the contacting element from the mounting rail. If, on the other hand, the pressure or actuating elements are relieved, the contact blocks automatically migrate to the side in order to contact the conductors of the busbars.
  • another preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the contacting element is designed in such a way that a movement directed axially into the mounting rail profile is converted into a lateral movement of the two contact blocks.
  • the two contact blocks are connected to one another via articulated arms that form a toggle joint.
  • the toggle joint can be designed such that when pressure is exerted on the contact blocks in a direction opposite to the direction of insertion into the mounting rail profile, the contact blocks are transferred from the open position to the contacting position.
  • the contact blocks When the contacting element is inserted into the mounting rail, the contact blocks automatically move laterally into the contacting position, which represents a particularly efficient and convenient configuration of the contacting element according to the invention.
  • a solution that is comparable to the variant just described provides that the two contact blocks are mounted on a support of the lamp or the electrical unit by means of a wedge guide in such a way that when pressure is exerted on the contact blocks in a direction opposite to the direction of insertion into the mounting rail profile Contact blocks are pushed by a wedge arranged on the carrier from the open position to the contacting position. In this case, too, the insertion movement is automatically used to move the contact blocks laterally into the contacting position.
  • the contact blocks are pretensioned in the open position, in particular are connected to one another accordingly via a tension spring.
  • the contact blocks of the contacting element according to the invention can also have, in addition to the contacts for contacting the lines of the busbars, also outwardly pointing latching elements for mechanical attachment to the mounting rail profile.
  • the effect can also be achieved in this case that, in addition to contacting the lines of the busbars, the luminaire or the electrical unit is also mechanically fastened to the mounting rail profile.
  • At least one of the contacts of the contacting element according to the invention can be mounted on its contact block so that it can be adjusted in height. This opens up the possibility of making flexible contact with the various lines of the busbars, for example in order to assign a specific function to the consumer or the light.
  • the light according to the invention is preferably an LED bar light.
  • the design of the contacting element according to the invention opens up the possibility of continuously arranging LEDs as lighting means over the entire length of the lamp.
  • an arrangement for light emission with a mounting rail which has a mounting rail profile with two side walls and at least one busbar, which is arranged on one of the two inner sides of the side walls of the mounting rail profile and has lines that can be electrically contacted, with a lamp or an electrical unit exists as described above.
  • Busbars are preferably arranged on both sides of the mounting rail.
  • the present invention is not limited to this special trunking system, but that the contacting elements according to the invention can always be used in principle whenever corresponding contacts of the contacting element have to be moved laterally to contact the lines of a mounting rail of a trunking system in order to connect the lines of a contact busbar.
  • the support rail with the conductor rails arranged therein is therefore shown only schematically.
  • connection to data lines used for communication would also be conceivable, whereby in particular the connection of sensors, cameras or similar components would be conceivable, which themselves transmit data via the lines of the light line system, which are then used, for example, for the automated control of the system.
  • the present invention includes all conceivable electrical units that can be connected to a power rail in a meaningful way.
  • the support rail 10 of the continuous-row system 1 has a downwardly open, U-shaped support rail profile 15 as a load-bearing element, which encloses an elongated receiving space 18 with two side walls 16 and a horizontal wall 17 connecting the side walls 16, into which the following is explained in more detail described contacting element is to be introduced.
  • Busbars 20 with contactable lines 25 are arranged on both inner sides of the side walls 16, which can be contacted by the lights or other electrical units to be connected to the system 1.
  • the storage of the lines 25 can be carried out by specially designed, consisting of an insulating material line support elements that form elongated grooves or channels open towards the inside, in which the lines 25, which are connected by uninsulated wires are formed, are stored.
  • the configuration of the busbars 20 could also vary.
  • the lines 25 are mounted in such a way that they are accessible from the interior 18 of the mounting rail 10 and can be contacted accordingly from this direction.
  • the lines 25 do not necessarily have to cover the entire be accessible along the length of the system 1, but it would also be conceivable that contacting is only possible or provided in sections.
  • the present figures show a so-called bar light 30 as the light to be connected to the system 1, which corresponds to the representation according to FIGS Figures 1a and 1b in the mounted state rests against the underside of the support rail profile 15 and has an elongate profile body 31 as a supporting element.
  • the profile body 31 is also used here in particular for mounting the lamps, any components for the power supply of the lamps and any optical components which are present and which influence the light output of the lamp 30 in the desired manner.
  • the design of these components is independent of the present invention, which is why these components are not shown in detail in the figures and are not to be explained in more detail below.
  • the lamp 30 is designed to be mechanically fastened to the mounting rail 10 and to contact at least some of the lines 25 of the two busbars 20, which is made possible with the aid of the contacting elements according to the invention described in more detail below.
  • the contacting elements are designed in such a way that they can be converted from a first configuration into a second configuration.
  • the contacting element is designed in such a way that it can be inserted into the interior 18 of the mounting rail 10 and, in particular, does not collide with the bottom edges of the side walls 16 of the mounting rail profile 15 . In this state, there is also no contacting of the lines 25 of the busbars 20.
  • the contacting element is in a state in which at least some of the lines 25 of the busbars 20 are contacted.
  • mechanical latching or locking elements also engage behind corresponding projections on the mounting rail 10, so that mechanical attachment to the mounting rail 10 also takes place in addition to the electrical contacting.
  • the contacting element is therefore also responsible for fastening the unit to be connected to the mounting rail 10 .
  • the first exemplary embodiment of a contacting element according to the invention is provided with the reference number 40 .
  • it has two so-called contact blocks 41 and 42, which are arranged on both sides of a longitudinal center plane E and carry contacts 43 pointing in opposite directions or respectively outwards.
  • the number and the height positioning of the contacts 43 are only shown as examples in the figures and can, of course, also vary.
  • the contact blocks 41, 42 are coupled to one another via a so-called toggle joint 45.
  • This toggle joint 45 is formed by a first arm 46 which projects vertically upwards and is rigidly connected to the carrier 31 of the lamp 30 .
  • the arm 46 is connected via a joint 47 to two pivoted arms 48, the end regions of which are in turn coupled in an articulated manner to one of the contact blocks 41 and 42, respectively.
  • a tension spring 49 is provided, which connects the end regions of the two arms 48 to one another.
  • the toggle joint 45 formed in this way now enables the two contact blocks 41 and 42 to be moved from the in Figure 1a illustrated position, which corresponds to an open position of the contacting element 40, in Figure 1b position shown can be transferred.
  • the two contact blocks 41 and 42 are slightly extended laterally to the side in such a way that the outer ends of the contact tongues 43 now come into contact with the lines 25 of the busbars 20 .
  • latching lugs 44 of the contact blocks 41, 42 engage behind latching projections provided at the lower end of the side walls 16 of the mounting rail 10.
  • the lamp 30 is not only electrically connected to the lines 25 of the busbars 20, but is also fixed mechanically to the mounting rail 10.
  • the position of the arms 48 in the contacting position of the contact blocks 41 and 42 shown is also such that the contact blocks 41 and 43 are locked by the tension spring 49 in the position shown.
  • FIGS. 2a and 2b show a second exemplary embodiment of a contacting element according to the invention, which is now provided with the reference number 50 .
  • This also offers the advantage that the two contact blocks 51, 52, which are equipped with corresponding contacts 53, come into contact with a stop 19 or the wall 17 when they are pushed into the receiving space 18 of the mounting rail 10 and then automatically migrate to the side. Again, the axial insertion movement is converted into a lateral movement of the contact blocks 51, 52.
  • a guide element 55 used for this purpose is in turn firmly connected to the carrier 31 of the lamp 30 and forms two guide surfaces 56 that project upwards at an incline which in turn can slide over a tension spring 59 interconnected contact blocks 51, 52.
  • the contact blocks 51, 52 have side walls facing the guide surfaces 56, which have a corresponding inclination, so that a change in the height of the contact blocks 51, 52 compared to the guide element 55 is converted into a lateral movement.
  • the contact blocks 51, 52 then assume a position in which, on the one hand, the contacts 53 contact the lines 25 of the busbars and, on the other hand, latching projections 54 engage behind the support rail 10.

  • FIGS Figures 3a and 3b A third exemplary embodiment of a contacting element 60 according to the invention is shown in FIGS Figures 3a and 3b shown.
  • an axial movement is not automatically converted into a lateral movement of the two contact blocks 61,62.
  • both contact blocks 61, 62 are connected to one another via a parallel guide 65.

  • both contact blocks 61, 62 are biased to an outward position.
  • leaf springs 69 located in the space between the contact blocks 61, 62 ( Figure 3a ) and on the other hand a spiral spring 70 positioned in the lower area ( Figure 3b ). Both variants cause the contact blocks 61, 62 to be pretensioned in the outwardly directed contacting position.
  • the two contact blocks 61, 62 In order to insert the contacting element 60 into the interior 18 of the mounting rail 10, it is therefore necessary for the two contact blocks 61, 62 to be temporarily moved towards one another against the spring force, which can be done manually by means of two laterally provided pressure fields 71, 72. If these pressure pads 71, 72 are relieved in the inserted state of the contacting element 70 in the interior 18 of the mounting rail 10, the contact blocks 61, 62 automatically move outwards again due to the spring force and in turn there is contact with the lines 25 of the busbars 20 and additionally also one mechanical locking with the mounting rail 10 via the locking elements 64.
