Description

The present invention relates to an LED fluorescent lamp (LED illumination) that has been attracting attention as an energy-saving measure in recent years, and a field related to its fixture.
LED fluorescent lamp illumination is a series of light source units mounted with a plurality of LED (light-emitting diode) spheres, heat-dissipated, covered with a light-transmitting cover on the light-emitting part side, Among the series of lighting fixtures having a connection unit similar to a conventional straight tube type fluorescent lamp and having a function of converting from an AC power source to a DC power source, the invention product is a circular type fluorescent lamp. A straight pipe type product excluding the shape.

Unlike conventional light bulb-type lighting fixtures, conventional fluorescent lamp lighting fixtures are known to have both-end insertion methods that do not use a spiral shape or the like in joining the fixture main body and the lighting main body.

Compared with the insertion method, the connection in the spiral shape is stronger than the connection in the fixture, so the probability that the lighting body will drop is low, and in the case of a straight tube type fluorescent lamp, Due to the length of the lighting body, the weight of the lighting body is large. If it falls, it may cause an accident or injury.

In recent years, lighting fixtures using LED spheres that consume less power than conventional fluorescent lamps have appeared from the viewpoint of reducing CO2 emissions.
The LED lighting fixture has been developed with a shape and a joint configuration so that the LED lighting fixture can be installed on an existing fixture body such as a light bulb type or a fluorescent lamp type.

LED lighting fixtures are characterized by low power consumption compared to conventional incandescent bulbs and fluorescent lamps. On the other hand, the straightness of light possessed by LED bulbs is uniform throughout the surroundings for the purpose of lighting fixtures. The wide angle type LED sphere is currently widely used as the LED sphere for these lighting applications because it is disadvantageous in that it is brightened.

However, even when a wide-angle type LED sphere is used as compared with the conventional fluorescent lamp illumination, the light source (LED sphere) portion of the LED type luminaire is bright and the luminaire main body is not uniformly bright.
For this reason, recently, a product that realizes light diffusion close to that of conventional fluorescent lamp illumination by providing a light-diffusing cover or the like around the LED lighting apparatus has been developed.

Next, the weak point of the LED sphere is that it is vulnerable to heat. LED spheres developed by each company are known to have different lifetimes depending on their temperature. Increasing the lifetime of the LED leads to a longer lifetime of the product. Heat treatment is an important issue, and we are striving to study each company.

Even in LED fluorescent lamp (LED lighting) fixtures, how to configure the heat dissipation unit is a theme that determines the quality of the product itself, but the heat dissipation system is a heat treatment that generates heat from the LED itself, Both the environment due to the temperature is related to the life of the LED, but since the outside temperature is a natural environment, if the product itself cannot be accepted if it cannot be used in a certain adaptation environment, the LED itself It is important to dissipate the heat generated by.

In the heat dissipation treatment of the heat generated by the LED itself, a method is generally known in which heat is released to a material having a high thermal conductivity. However, these materials often have a high specific gravity centering on a metal. For this reason, when LED lighting is manufactured using the heat radiating unit comprised with the metal, the weight of product itself will increase.

On the other hand, lighting fixtures are usually installed at high places such as the ceiling, so if such a heavy product falls for some reason, it may hit people directly or break things. There is a possibility that damage will come out. Therefore, the device which suppresses the weight of LED lighting itself as much as possible is also needed. Therefore, it is necessary to make the heat dissipation unit lighter by using a material with low specific gravity and a material with high thermal conductivity, so it is necessary to make it compact. Yes.

Against this background, as methods for preventing the fall of conventional fluorescent lamps, the “bar-shaped fluorescent lamp tube fall prevention device” utility model publication No. Hei 7-7011, and the “straight tube fluorescent lamp socket” utility model publication No. Hei 5-15379 In addition, there have been applications for preventing the lighting device body from falling by using the invention and the inventive technology, such as “Illuminating device” registered utility model No. 3138682, but these technologies are merely used for mounting fixtures. This is a method for preventing the fall, and does not promote heat dissipation of the lighting fixture itself.

Of course, in conventional fluorescent lamp fixtures installed without applying these techniques, there are many cases in which people have been injured because they actually fell. .
As an example, in the JR West Kosai Line “Near Makino Station” that occurred on February 21, 2009, “A station attendant was notified that a fluorescent lamp had fallen while the train was running near Makino Station, We confirmed that the fluorescent lamp had fallen in a broken state on the floor, and the customer (one person) and his hands were injured lightly. "
This information is the content posted on the JR West website, and the inventor and the applicant do not aim for any slander or slander about the company. In explaining the background art of the present invention, it is up to reference to examples from publicly available information.

The technology described in the background art of the present invention is only a technique for preventing the fall of the conventional fluorescent lamp illumination, etc., and the heat dissipation treatment of the LED fluorescent lamp illumination that has been commercialized in recent years is related to the product itself. It is required to solve simultaneously the problem of preventing damage such as an efficient heat dissipation treatment and an accident due to a product drop, which are also problems for maintaining a shape close to the conventional fluorescent lamp illumination imposed on the product.
In addition, since the LED fluorescent lamp fixture itself has a long life and a large number of LEDs are used in one LED fluorescent lamp, it is expensive compared to conventional fluorescent lamp fixtures. The possibility of being stolen cannot be denied.

In order to solve such problems, the present invention provides a fixing portion of the product of the present invention at any place on the ceiling part of the installation equipment for a straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp. The straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp cover portion of the present invention is fixed so as to cover the straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp. The heat generated by lighting the straight tube LED fluorescent lamp through the product of the present invention is connected to the heat radiating section of the tube type LED fluorescent lamp) and connected to the heat dissipation section using a screw or a magnet. Therefore, even when the straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp is detached from the mounting fixture, the product of the present invention can be supported to prevent the fall. Furthermore, a preventive measure can be taken by making it the structure which cannot be removed easily as antitheft.

By introducing the product of the present invention, it is possible to take fall prevention measures and anti-theft measures for weight-related problems with heat radiation units possessed by LED fluorescent lamp illumination configured in various designs and specifications in various places. In addition, since the heat dissipation effect of the LED fluorescent lamp illumination itself can be assisted, it is possible to extend the life of the LED bulb itself.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
