Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un module fluorescent tubulaire réalisé dans un profilé métallique présentant une rainure longitudinale de suspension, et comprenant des organes de fonctionnement dudit module. The present invention relates to a tubular fluorescent module produced in a metal profile having a longitudinal suspension groove, and comprising operating members of said module.
L'invention trouve une application particulièrement intéressante dans le domaine de l'éclairage, et plus précisément dans celui des luminaires décoratifs. The invention finds a particularly interesting application in the field of lighting, and more specifically in that of decorative luminaires.
Les modules fluorescents tubulaires connus, conformes au préambule, sont généralement réalisés en profilé extrudé, en aluminium par exemple. Le profil d'extrusion comporte des rainures de fixation faisant saillie à l'intérieur dudit profilé, et destinées à recevoir des organes de fonctionnement dudit module tels que le ballast et le porte-douille du tube fluorescent destiné à équiper le module, un réflecteur, des fixations d'embout, etc... Toutefois, ce type de modules connus présente l'inconvénient d'engager une quantité de matière superflue et donc inutilement coûteuse dans la mesure où les rainures de fixation, qui courent sur toute la longueur du module, ne sont utilisées que sur une portion très réduite localisée aux extrémités du module. Known tubular fluorescent modules, in accordance with the preamble, are generally made of extruded profile, aluminum for example. The extrusion profile includes fixing grooves protruding inside said profile, and intended to receive operating members of said module such as the ballast and the socket holder of the fluorescent tube intended to equip the module, a reflector, end fittings, etc. However, this type of known modules has the disadvantage of involving an unnecessary quantity of material and therefore unnecessarily expensive since the fixing grooves, which run over the entire length of the module , are only used on a very small portion located at the ends of the module.
Aussi, le problème technique à résoudre par l'objet de la présente invention est de proposer un module fluorescent tubulaire conforme au préambule qui permettrait de fixer les organes de fonctionnement sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'avoir recours à des rainures de fixation telles que définies ci-dessus. Also, the technical problem to be solved by the object of the present invention is to propose a tubular fluorescent module in accordance with the preamble which would allow the operating members to be fixed without the need for recourse to fixing grooves such as defined above.
La solution au problème technique posé consiste, selon la présente invention, en ce que ledit profilé est une feuille métallique roulée, et en ce que lesdits organes de fonctionnement sont fixés sur la partie, interne au profilé, de ladite rainure longitudinale de suspension, aux extrémités dudit module. The solution to the technical problem posed consists, according to the present invention, in that said profile is a rolled metal sheet, and in that said operating members are fixed to the part, internal to the profile, of said longitudinal suspension groove, to ends of said module.
Ainsi, en utilisant la rainure longitudinale de suspension elle-même pour fixer les organes de fonctionnement du module, il est fait l'économie des rainures de fixation présentes dans le module connu de l'état de la technique. Thus, by using the longitudinal suspension groove itself to fix the operating members of the module, it is done without the fixing grooves present in the module known from the prior art.
Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, lesdits organes de fonctionnement sont fixés directement sur la rainure longitudinale de suspension par un profil conjugué de celui de la partie interne au profilé de ladite rainure longitudinale. In a particular embodiment, said operating members are fixed directly to the longitudinal suspension groove by a profile combined with that of the internal part of the profile of said longitudinal groove.
Dans un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, lesdits organes de fonctionnement sont fixés sur la rainure longitudinale de suspension par une pièce intermédiaire de fixation. Ce mode de réalisation sera utilisé, de préférence, lorsqu'un rattrapage en hauteur s'avère nécessaire. In another embodiment of the invention, said operating members are fixed to the longitudinal suspension groove by an intermediate fixing part. This embodiment will preferably be used when a height adjustment is necessary.
Un autre avantage de l'invention réside dans le fait que ledit profilé métallique est prélaqué, ce qui conduit à un gain de temps lors de la fabrication du module selon l'invention par rapport au module connu auquel il faut appliquer une opération supplémentaire de peinture. Another advantage of the invention lies in the fact that said metal profile is prepainted, which leads to a saving of time during the manufacture of the module according to the invention compared to the known module to which an additional painting operation must be applied. .
La description qui va suivre, en regard des dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, fera bien comprendre en quoi consiste l'invention et comment elle peut être réalisée. The description which follows, with reference to the appended drawings, given by way of nonlimiting examples, will make it clear what the invention consists of and how it can be implemented.
La figure 1 est une vue en coupe d'un premier mode de réalisation d'un module fluorescent tubulaire selon l'invention. Figure 1 is a sectional view of a first embodiment of a tubular fluorescent module according to the invention.
La figure 2 est une vue en coupe d'un deuxième mode de réalisation d'un module fluorescent tubulaire selon l'invention. Figure 2 is a sectional view of a second embodiment of a tubular fluorescent module according to the invention.
La figure 1 montre, en coupe, un module fluorescent tubulaire réalisé dans un profil métallique 10 présentant une rainure longitudinale 20 de suspension ayant, dans l'exemple de la figure 1, la forme d'une queue d'aronde. Cette rainure 20 est destinée à recevoir des moyens 22 de suspension au plafond visibles sur la figure 2; elle sert également au passage des cables électriques alimentant ledit module fluorescent ou un ensemble de modules mis bout à bout. Figure 1 shows, in section, a tubular fluorescent module produced in a metal profile 10 having a longitudinal groove 20 of suspension having, in the example of Figure 1, the shape of a dovetail. This groove 20 is intended to receive means 22 for hanging from the ceiling visible in FIG. 2; it is also used for the passage of electric cables supplying said fluorescent module or a set of modules placed end to end.
Le module tubulaire de la figure I comprend des organes 31, 32 de fonctionnement qui, dans l'exemple proposé, sont un support 31 de ballast et un porte-douille 32 prévus pour équiper un tube fluorescent non représenté. The tubular module of FIG. I comprises operating members 31, 32 which, in the example proposed, are a ballast support 31 and a socket holder 32 intended to equip a fluorescent tube not shown.
Comme on peut le voir à la figure 1, ledit profilé métallique 10 est une feuille de métal, aluminium par exemple, roulée et non un profil extrudé. D'autre part, la figure 1 montre également que les organes 31, 32 de fonctionnement sont fixés sur la partie 21, interne au profil 10, de la rainure 20 de suspension, aux extrémités dudit module. Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 1, les organes de fonctionnement sont fixés directement sur la rainure 20 par un profil 33 aménagé sur le support 31 de ballast et conjugué du profil en queue d'aronde de la rainure 20. Les organes de fonctionnement peuvent ainsi coulisser le long de la rainure, et sont maintenus dans la position désirée par des vis, par exemple. As can be seen in Figure 1, said metal profile 10 is a sheet of metal, aluminum for example, rolled and not an extruded profile. On the other hand, Figure 1 also shows that the operating members 31, 32 are fixed on the part 21, internal to the profile 10, of the suspension groove 20, at the ends of said module. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the operating members are fixed directly to the groove 20 by a profile 33 arranged on the ballast support 31 and conjugate with the dovetail profile of the groove 20. The operating members can thus slide along the groove, and are held in the desired position by screws, for example.
La figure 2 donne un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention, dans lequel les organes 31r 32 de fonctionnement sont fixés sur la rainure longitudinale 20 de suspension par une pièce intermédiaire 40 de fixation. Cette pièce 40 peut être un petit profilé d'aluminium extrudé placé en bout du module fluorescent tubulaire et sur lequel sont vissés les organes 31, 32 de fonctionnement. FIG. 2 gives a second embodiment of the invention, in which the operating members 31r 32 are fixed to the longitudinal groove 20 for suspension by an intermediate fixing piece 40. This part 40 can be a small extruded aluminum profile placed at the end of the tubular fluorescent module and onto which the operating members 31, 32 are screwed.
