MODULAR LIGHTING

D E S C R I P C I Ó N

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a modular luminaire that can be used in urban and / or outdoor lighting.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

At present, different types of luminaires are known for urban or outdoor students. The typical configuration of these luminaires includes a pole or staff of fixed heights, between 5 meters and 12 meters, or even higher, in whose upper part there are street lighting lamps.

This configuration presents a clear lack of flexibility when implanting an urban or exterior lighting, and must necessarily choose a pole of the existing heights, and can not also orient the luminaires installed therein, and forcing the costly replacement of the pole and luminaires in case of needing extension or modernization of the lighting.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The modular luminaire of the invention has a modular configuration that facilitates the extension of the lighting installations, and their initial implementation; and also allows the orientation of the lamps with ease, even once the luminaire is mounted.

According to the invention, the luminaire comprises:

-a base to be fixed to the ground or firm,

-a stackable intermediate modules (that is, that support successively on their bases), on said socket to configure the luminaire modularly flexibly,

-a top closing module arranged on the stacking of intermediate modules, to finish off the stacking, and which can be used to house the power supply of the luminaire, and

- some vertical rods of rotating union between the bases of said intermediate modules so that the azimuth of the same can be oriented with respect to the terrain; and where said intermediate modules comprise:

-a hollow metal body to accommodate lamps or other equipment,

-a cover of the ends of said body that configure the bases of the intermediate module so that the manufacturing of the modules is facilitated, for example by extrusion, and

-a hooks for the vertical stems, provided in said covers to realize the rotating union between modules.

In addition, with the described configuration, the following additional advantages are obtained by the possibility of having additional elements such as cameras, speakers, Wi-Fi repeaters, etc. in the luminaire thus configured.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

The modular luminaire (1) of the invention comprises (see fig. 1):

-a socket (2),

-a few intermediate modules (3, 4) stackable on said socket (2),

-a top closing module (5) arranged on the stacking of intermediate modules (3, 4), and

-a few vertical rods (7) (see figs. 2 to 6) of rotating connection between the bases (6) of said intermediate modules (3, 4); where said intermediate modules (3, 4) comprise:

-a hollow metal body (8),

-a covers (9) of the ends of said body (8) that configure the bases (6) of the corresponding intermediate module (3, 4), and

-a hooks (10) (see figs 3 and 6) for the vertical stems (7), provided in said covers (9).

In a preferred embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 1, it is provided that the luminaire (1) comprises a blind intermediate module (3) of closed perimeter configuration to accommodate first additional elements (100) to be protected (from moisture, from subtraction, etc.), such as wifi repeaters.

In the preferred embodiment, the arrangement of at least one open intermediate module (4) provided with at least one opening (40) in which lamps (41) are arranged, which are those that provide the arrangement, is also provided. lighting of the luminaire.

Each open intermediate module (4) can mount a lamp (41), as seen in fig 1, or several lamps (41) as seen in figures 5 and 6. Said lamps (41) comprise axes (42) horizontal sides that are rotatably inserted in recesses (43) of the sides of the corresponding opening (40) thus achieving azimuthal orientation with the rotation of the intermediate modules (3, 4) and inclination orientation of the lamps (41) through these axes (42). Likewise, in these modules there may be second additional elements, not represented, that need to be externally accessible to transmit sounds (loudspeakers for messages or broadcasting of messages, associated with the corresponding source of acoustic signal, not shown) or to take images (cameras associated with a transmitter or image recorder element) for example.

A very preferred and simple materialization of the baseboard (2) (see fig. 3) comprises a plate (20) with first lower screws (21) for floor fixing (they can be through) and flanges (22) upper vertical projections; any of the intermediate modules (3, 4) comprising perimeter holes (12) faced with said flanges (22) for the passage of a few second screws (23) captive to fix them (see also fig 2).

For its part, the upper closing module (5) (see Figs. 8 and 9) ideally comprises a flared lower section (50) inside which a housing (51) for the power supply (52) of the lamps is generated (41), and an upper closing sector (53) that overlaps the outside of the lower sector (50). As seen in fig 9, a cover (9) similar to those that form the bases (6) of the intermediate modules (3, 4) can be arranged in the lower section (50) of the upper closing module (5). so that it can be fixed through a rod (7) of the intermediate module that is just below.

As for the vertical stems (7) they comprise threaded studs arranged in the bases (6) of the modules. This allows the rotation around the vertical axis, even 360 degrees, also serving to regulate the tightening; while the covers (9) of the intermediate modules (3, 4) are materialized in plastic, so that they absorb the greater or lesser tightening between them by plastic deformation by adjusting by rotation the position of said intermediate modules (3, 4) .

Taking advantage of this threaded configuration of the stems (7) it has been determined in this embodiment that the hooks (10) for them ideally comprise threaded bushings (20) arranged in the covers (9) for threading said stems (7).

5 With the hollow configuration of the hollow metal bodies (8) that are part of the intermediate modules (3, 4), they can be materialized in aluminum extrusion. It is also provided that said intermediate modules (3, 4) may comprise internal stiffening partitions (15) (see figs 4 and 7), in which vertical forks (16) receiving screws (17) are materialized. Fixing

10 of the covers (9). The intermediate modules (3, 4) can have a cylindrical shape, easily obtainable by extrusion, the covers (9) having a circular shape so that the outer shape is not altered by turning them if the stems (7) meet arranged in the centers of the covers (9).

The nature of the invention, as well as the manner in which it is carried out in practice, is sufficiently described, it should be noted that the provisions indicated above and represented in the attached drawings are subject to modifications in detail as long as they do not alter the fundamental principle.
