Description

  The present invention relates to a lighting apparatus such as a spotlight.

The luminaire described in the utility model registration gazette according to No. 2555968 (hereinafter referred to as “conventional example 1”) has a lighting fixture attached to the tip of a pipe-like holder part and a cap-like attachment to the rear base of the holder part. The part is fixed by a nut, and the latching body is detachably attached to the attachment part. The luminaire is used by being directly or indirectly attached to a wall, a ceiling, a stand, or the like via a latching body or by removing the latching body.
The lighting fixture described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-103346 (hereinafter referred to as “conventional example 2”) is provided with a support frame as illustrated in the description of lines 2 to 8 in paragraph 0006 of FIG. The support frame is connected to a box-shaped holding body incorporating an inverter. This holding body holds a ground terminal connection device, and the ground terminal connection device is connected to a wiring duct attached to the ceiling so as to be movable, inserted and removed. This lighting fixture is intended to save energy by being combined with an inverter. Recently, a spotlight having such a holding body has become mainstream.

In the conventional example 1, since various mounting methods can be selected, for example, there is an advantage that it is possible to cope with different conditions of exhibition at an exhibition place (exhibition place of exhibition, product display place of department store, etc.) If you want to use the inverter to display the exhibition lights, you must place the inverter behind the ceiling or behind the wall and work on the electrical connection between the luminaire and the inverter at the work site. The cost is high, and in particular, a large exhibition hall where international exhibitions are performed requires construction of a large number of lighting fixtures.
In Conventional Example 2, since the lighting fixture is attached to a box-shaped holding body incorporating an inverter, the problem of Conventional Example 1 is solved, but in general, a spotlight type lighting fixture is held as in Conventional Example 2. In addition to the type of mounting part with a body, there are a pipe (arm) type mounting part type with a cap at the base as in Conventional Example 1, and a clip type mounting part type with a mounting clip attached. Conventional example 2 cannot be applied to this type.
Proposals were made for a luminaire that could save energy by combining it with an inverter even if the type of attachment connected to the luminaire was different.
The objective of this invention is providing the lighting fixture which can aim at an energy saving combining with an inverter, even if the type of an attaching part differs.

A first feature of the present invention includes an illumination part and an attachment part connected to the illumination part. The illumination part includes an illuminating lamp and incorporates an inverter. It can be attached to the attachment means.
The second feature of the present invention is that the illuminating lamp and the inverter are connected via a holding frame on the premise of the first feature.
According to a third feature of the present invention, on the premise of the first feature, the illuminating lamp and the inverter are connected via a groove-shaped holding frame arranged between the two, and the holding frame is The holding portions projecting from both sides and are opposed to each other are connected to the mounting portion, and the rear side of the illuminating lamp is located between the both holding portions.
According to a fourth feature of the present invention, on the premise of the first feature, the illuminating lamp and the inverter are connected via a holding frame disposed between the two. The holding frame is connected to the illuminating lamp and the inverter. The space between them is secured.

  According to the present invention, since the inverter is built in the lighting part, it can be attached to an attaching means such as an exhibition hall without questioning the kind of the attaching part, and the construction becomes easier compared to the conventional example, Cost can be suppressed.

The attachment body 17 is formed of a pipe having a predetermined length, the upper end portion is connected to the central portion of the attachment frame 16, and the seat portion 18 is attached to the lower portion. The seat portion 18 is formed in a cap shape, and is directly or indirectly attached to attachment means 20 (FIG. 2) such as a wall or a ceiling. The cord 15 drawn out from the rear plate 13 passes through the attachment body 17 and the seat portion 18 through the attachment frame 16 and is guided downward in FIG.

The usage method of the lighting fixture 1 is demonstrated.
Lighting equipment 1 stands up from the floor according to the situation at the site of use in order to illuminate products, exhibits, models, indoor spaces, etc. in department stores, exhibition halls, and other fashion venues. The seat portion 18 is placed on the floor to fix the seat portion, and the seat portion 18 is fixed to the wall or ceiling when used attached to the wall or ceiling.

4 and 5, a lighting fixture 101 as another embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The luminaire 101 has substantially the same configuration as that of the luminaire 1 described above, and includes an illuminating unit 102 having a built-in inverter 105 and an attachment unit 103 connected to the illuminating unit. In part 2, attachment part 103 corresponds to attachment part 3, and inverter 105 corresponds to inverter 5.
In the lighting fixture 101, description of the component part which is common in the lighting fixture 1 is abbreviate | omitted, and only a different part is demonstrated.
In the illuminating unit 102 of the luminaire 101, a body unit 106 and a hood 107 that is a cover that covers the illuminating lamp 104 are integrally formed. The holding frame 110 is formed in a “U” shape, and is attached to the back portion of the trunk portion 106 so as to hold it. An inverter 105 is coupled to the back of the holding frame 110. The holding frame 110 is fixed to the front plate 112 of the inverter 105. Reference numeral 109 denotes a socket.
The mounting portion 103 of the lighting fixture 101 includes a mounting frame 116 and a box-shaped mounting body 117. The upper ends of the holding portions 116 a on both sides of the attachment frame 116 are attached to the arm portions 110 a of the holding frame 110 by bolts 119. A box-shaped attachment body 117 shown in FIG. 4 is attached to the lower portion of the attachment frame 116 by a connecting member. The mounting body 117 is provided with a wiring duct ground connection terminal device 121. The rotating shaft portion 121a of the ground connection terminal device 121 for the wiring duct protrudes from the mounting body 117, and a pair of locking projections 121b and terminal portions 121c that are respectively disposed on the upper and lower sides of the outer periphery of the rotating shaft portion. It is set horizontally. The rotating shaft 121a is rotated by the rotation operation of the operation handle 121d, and the engaging protrusion 121b can be engaged and disengaged from a side groove (not shown) in the wiring duct 120, and the terminal portion 121c is connected to the internal terminal portion. Can contact. The rotating shaft 121a is movable in the length direction of the wiring duct 120 along the opening groove. Reference numeral 121e denotes a ground terminal that penetrates the axis of the rotary shaft 121a and is exposed from the end, and can contact a ground electrode path provided in the wiring duct 120.
