Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that a lighting instrument having an electric bulb socket is necessary for lighting up since a section connected with a power supply in a practical stabilizer built-in type fluorescent lamp is an electric bulb base shape. <P>SOLUTION: Illumination using no lighting instrument is possible by preparing a lighting device wherein a ceiling wiring tool for a lighting instrument is directly set up to be a power source, and the problem can be solved. Upon using the lighting device, problems for costs, weight, and a design of a conventional lighting device can be solved in comparison with the case in which the stabilizer built-in type fluorescent lamp with an electric bulb base is turned on. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a fluorescent lamp with a built-in ballast that does not have a cap for a light bulb. In particular, a fluorescent lamp, a lighting device that lights the fluorescent lamp, and a supply device that supplies power to the lighting device are directly or via an electric wire. It is related with the illuminating device characterized by being integrated and can be connected to a ceiling wiring fixture and a power outlet.

  In general, a ballast built-in type fluorescent lamp is intended to replace a light bulb, and therefore a connection portion with a power source has a shape of a cap for a light bulb. Many types of these ballast fluorescent lamps have already been put into practical use.

  On the other hand, in recent years, installation of ceiling wiring fixtures for installing lighting fixtures on the ceilings of houses has become widespread. Examples of names of ceiling wiring devices are called “round hook ceiling”, “square hook ceiling”, “hook embedded rosette”, and “hook exposed rosette”. Many types of lighting fixtures suitable for these ceiling wiring fixtures have already been put into practical use.

  Among the above lighting fixtures, many types of lighting fixtures having a bulb socket have already been put into practical use. When using a fluorescent lamp with a built-in ballast as a light source for residential lighting, these bulb sockets are used. It had to be lit using the luminaire it had.
