Description

Streetlight.

The present invention relates to a lamppost, comprising a pole and a luminaire, said inclination being able to tilt post between a plurality of positions.

Background of the invention

The street lamps currently used for the lighting of public spaces comprise a vertical pole provided with a luminaire at its upper end.

The inconvenience of the street lamps currently known is that they do not allow to illuminate certain spaces, due to the vertical arrangement of the post.

For example, it is currently not possible light a tree from inside, since the tree trunk prevents the placement of the lamppost.

In addition, another inconvenience of the street lamps known is that its luminaire is fixed at the upper end of the post, so it is necessary to use a crane to access said luminaire for maintenance reasons.

Description of the invention

With the lamp of the invention are achieved solve the aforementioned problems, presenting other advantages that They will be described.

The lamppost of the present invention comprises a pole and a luminaire mounted on said pole, and is characterized by the fact that said post comprises inclination means, for placing said inclined post in a plurality of stable positions.

Thanks to this feature the lamppost can be tilt to illuminate areas that are currently not accessible with the use of vertical street lamps, such as, for example, the Inside a tree.

According to a preferred embodiment, said means Tilt include:

- a foot comprising a pair of plates provided with a plurality of holes;

- a lower body located in the part bottom of said post, said lower body provided with a pair of complementary holes to said foot holes, said lower body being placed between said foot plates; Y

- pins that determine the inclination of said lower body with respect to said foot, when crossing the holes of the foot and lower body in one position determined.

Preferably, said lower body comprises  a curved bottom surface and a pair of projections that they house inside a couple of entrees provided in the part upper of each plate of said foot. In this way, the body lower can rotate around said projections, allowing the post tilt.

Advantageously, said luminaire is mounted on a support tube that slides along said post. From This way, you can easily access the luminaire, simply placing it in its lower position.

In addition, said support tube is located around said post, said support tube comprising some internal wheels that slide along grooves provided on the outside of said post.

Preferably, said post comprises in its upper end pulleys, one for a drive cable of the movement of the support tube and another for the cable electric.

Said electric cable comprises a section in spiral, so that it can stretch or shrink depending on the position of the support tube in the post.

Brief description of the drawings

For a better understanding of how much has been exposed Some drawings are accompanied in which, schematically and only to non-limiting example title, a case study of realization.

Figure 1 is a schematic view of a lamppost of the present invention, placed in an inclined position illuminating the inside of a tree;

Figure 2 is an exploded view of the lamppost of the present invention; Y

Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view. of the lamppost post of the present invention, at the height of the luminaire support socket.

Description of a preferred embodiment

As can be seen in Figure 1, the lamppost of the present invention comprises a post 1 and at least a luminaire 2 located in its use position near the end top of said post 1.

According to the invention, the post 1 can be tilted between a plurality of stable positions, for example for illuminate the inside of a tree, as shown in the figure one.

To allow such inclination, post 1 it comprises a lower body 3, with its curved lower surface, comprising a pair of through holes 4 and a pair of projections 5, as seen in Figure 2.

The lamppost of the present invention also it comprises a foot provided with a pair of vertical plates 6 that each comprises an inlet 7 for said projections 5, and also a plurality of holes 8 complementary to the holes 4 of the lower body 3.

In this way, the relative position of said holes 4, 8 determines the inclination of the lamp post 1. To fix this relative position of said holes 4, 8, in the same pins 9 are introduced.

For example, post 1 can lean on seven different positions, separated from each other 2.5º. This way, the post 1 can be placed vertically, that is, at 0 °, or inclined 2.5º, 5º, 7.5º, 10º, 12.5º or 15º with respect to the vertical.

The lamppost of the present invention also it comprises a support tube 10 that can slide along said post 1. Said support tube 10 carries said luminaire 2 or luminaires and comprises internally a plurality of wheels 11 which slides along grooves 12 provided in said post 1.

On the other hand, said post 1 comprises some internal pulleys 13 for the passage of the drive cable 14 of the movement of the support tube and for the passage of the electric cable fifteen.

Said electric cable 15 comprises a section in spiral 16, so that it can stretch or shrink depending on the position of said support tube 10.

To fix the support tube 10 in position, said lower body 3 comprises a pair of anchoring elements 17, in which the drive cable 14 is fixed.

The lamppost of the present invention also it comprises a concrete support base 17 on which it is placed a concrete tube 18, which will be located below from the ground level once the lamppost is installed. At the level of ground, the lamppost comprises a pair of panels 19 that can be fill with soil material.

Although reference has been made to a concrete embodiment of the invention, is evident to an expert in the matter that the lamppost described is susceptible of numerous variations and modifications, and that all the details mentioned they can be replaced by technically equivalent ones, without depart from the scope of protection defined by the attached claims.
