Description

Device to replace LED lamps with a vertical bulb.

Object of the invention

The present model is intended to replace the lamp of a luminaire of the type that is recessed in the ceiling to give light in a vertical direction from top to bottom, by an LED system, in order to obtain a powerful light bulb and low consumption.

The luminaires called downlight have two lamps that illuminate directly and in a vertical position (descending light), so that the light is projected concentrated in a single point, thus preventing the light from expanding throughout the rest of the cabin. Commonly these lamps are wrapped in a reflector that concentrates the beam of light in a fairly small area, which results in a very characteristic illumination.

This type of luminaire is normally hidden or recessed in a false ceiling directing all the direct light flow towards the immediately inferior surface.

Background of the invention

Currently the use of downlight type luminaires is very widespread and in most cases they are equipment that includes two conventional or low-consumption lamps, since their appearance on the market is prior to the recent diffusion of LEDs, applied as a medium of lighting for its high performance and low consumption. We are not aware of the existence of a device that allows adapting an LED lighting system equipped with a suspension system in lamps of this type, in order to take advantage of the existing installation.

Description of the invention

The device object of this model allows to take advantage of the existing installation of a recessed vertical spotlight, replacing the usual lamp or lamps with LED. This device is formed by a series of parts mounted on a perforated aluminum disc, which has a perimeter equivalent to the reflector of the focus to be changed. On the lower side of the perforated disc there is a LED plate fixed, whose conductive cables exit through the center towards the upper face of said disc; while a heat sink radiator emitted by LEDs is usually fixed on the upper face.

According to an important characteristic of this model, wires are also fixed on the upper face, normally attached to the fixing screws of said thermal radiator, which have a length greater than the reflector of the focus, so that they exit at the bottom thereof and they can thus be fixed in the focus structure, or even at the edge of the hole made to the reflector. This simple wire allows the disc to be placed inside the reflector at the desired height and therefore to keep it separated enough from the protective glass of the focus, in order to avoid its deterioration by the direct heat emitted by the LEDs.

Description of the figures

To complement the description that is being made and in order to facilitate the understanding of the characteristics of the invention, a set of drawings is attached to the present specification in which, for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, the following has been represented:

Figure 1 shows paths in elevation and upper plan of the device object of this model.

Figure 2 shows an elevation view of a recessed vertical spotlight inside which this device object of this model is installed.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As can be seen in the referenced figures, the device described in this report has been designed to replace the lamps of a conventional luminaire of the type called “downlight”, obtaining a considerable energy saving, while retaining the same level and qualities of existing lighting.

This device comprises the following elements:

a) A perforated disk (1) that has a perimeter equivalent to the reflector (6) of the existing focus. b) An LED plate (2), fixed by the lower face of the perforated disk (1), whose conductive cables exit through the center towards the upper face of said disk. c) A radiator (3), fixed by the upper face of the disk (1), coinciding in the area in which the LED plate (2) is fixed by the lower face. d) Wires (4), fastened in the screws (5) for fixing the radiator (3), which are longer than the spotlight reflector (6).

The characteristic that differentiates this model and makes its design novel is its fastening system, which is carried out by means of the wires (4,) held in the disk (1) by means of the screws used to attach the radiator (3 ) in it, which allows to achieve extremely low manufacturing costs, while designing a very simple installation system.

5 For the installation of this element we will begin by straightening the clamping wires (4) with respect to how they are placed for packaging (see figure 1), so that they are perpendicular to the disk (1) and with their ends as close as possible.

Once the downlight has been disconnected and disassembled, having removed the glass and the lamps to be renewed, the reflector cap (6) is removed and a hole is made in it that allows the fastening wires 10 (4) to pass through it. and of the electrical connection cables, the latter can also pass through the existing holes through which the conventional lamps were inserted. Then the ends of the wires are introduced through the hole made, and the disc (1) is introduced into the reflector cap (6) until it reaches a depth such that it is approximately one centimeter in height in the hole below between it and the bottom of the holes in the reflector through which conventional lamps were introduced, in order to

15 facilitate the entry of outside air. When the disc (1) has reached the optimum height, the clamping wires (4) are folded out of the reflector (6) or the structure (8) of the focus, so that it cannot move from its position. Once the power cable is also passed and the connection to the power supply is made, the LEDs (2) will be in operation instead of the existing lamp, being able to be installed with or without glass.

Once the nature of the invention has been sufficiently described, as well as a preferred embodiment,

20 indicates to the appropriate effects that the materials, shape, size and arrangement of the described elements may be modified, provided that this does not imply an alteration of the essential characteristics of the invention claimed below:
