Description

  The present invention relates to a lighting apparatus.

  Conventionally, lighting fixtures generally use one light bulb (incandescent bulb, fluorescent lamp, etc.). There are lighting fixtures that use multiple (for example, two) bulbs, but this can be achieved by increasing the illuminance by turning on the multiple bulbs, or by turning on all or part of the multiple bulbs. The main purpose is to change in stages, and a plurality of light bulbs are usually arranged in close proximity.

  By the way, recently, various types of lighting fixtures have been used from the viewpoint of using the lighting fixture as a part of the interior of the room, for example, a lighting fixture using a bulb shade extending in the vertical direction is used. It has been.

  However, in the above-described conventional lighting apparatus using one light bulb or a plurality of light bulbs arranged in close proximity, if the overall length of the light bulb shade is long, the brightness of the light bulb reaches only a part of the light bulb shade. For this reason, it is difficult to ensure sufficient brightness required as a lighting fixture, except when used as a pure interior. Further, since the position where the light bulb is disposed is substantially one place, there is a drawback that it is difficult to cope with light bulb shades of various designs.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a lighting apparatus that can perform sufficient illumination even when the overall length of the light bulb shade is long, and that can cope with light bulb shades of various designs.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the lighting apparatus according to claim 1 of the present invention is a support member extending in the vertical direction, and includes a plurality of support portions provided at predetermined intervals in the vertical direction. And a light emitting member attached to each of the support portions, and an exterior member provided outside the support member. The light emitting member is composed of a light emitting part such as a light bulb or LED (light emitting diode) and a main body part such as a socket to which the light emitting part is attached.
The lighting fixture according to claim 2, wherein the support portion is an opening formed in the support portion of the support member, and the light emitting member is a socket to which a light bulb is attached, and the socket is fixed to the opening portion.

It is characterized by being clamped and held securely.

  The lighting apparatus according to claim 1 is configured such that the light emitting member is attached to a support portion provided at a predetermined interval on a support member extending in a vertical direction, whereby the light emitting member is separated at a predetermined interval. Are connected to each other. For this reason, even when the exterior member (bulb shade) is long, there is an effect that it can be easily handled by arranging the light emitting members at appropriate intervals in the length direction of the exterior member.

  Since the lighting fixture according to claim 2 has a configuration in which the upper end portion of the socket of the light emitting member is inserted and attached to the opening formed in the support member, there is an effect that the light emitting member can be easily attached to the support member. is there.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
The lighting fixture of embodiment was shown in FIGS. The lighting fixture includes a support member 1, a light emitting member 2, an exterior member 3, a power cord portion 4, a stand portion 5, and the like.

  The support member 1 has a substantially rod-like shape extending in the vertical direction, and is provided with support portions 1a at predetermined positions thereof, in the illustrated example, at an upper end and a lower end, and an opening 11 is formed in each of the support portions 1a. ing. The inner diameter of the opening 11 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the upper end 21a of the socket 21. In the illustrated example, a wire having a predetermined diameter is bent into the above shape.

  In the illustrated example, the light emitting member 2 includes a socket 21, a light bulb 22 attached to the upper end 21 a of the socket 21, a fixture 23 for fixing the socket 21 to the opening 11, and the like. The socket 21 has a socket cap 21b to which one end of the power cord portion 4 is connected, and a locking surface 21c is formed between the socket cap 21b and the upper end portion 21a. A male screw 21d is provided on the outer periphery of the upper end portion 21a.

  As the light bulb 22, an appropriate one such as an incandescent light bulb or a fluorescent lamp can be used. The fixture 23 is a ring-shaped member made of synthetic resin or the like, and its inner diameter is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the upper end portion 21a. A female screw 21e is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the fixture 23 to be screwed with the male screw 21d of the upper end 21a. Furthermore, protrusions 23b are formed on the outer periphery of the fixture 23 at substantially equal intervals. As will be described later, the protrusion 23b functions as an anti-slip of the operator's finger when the fixture 23 is screwed into the socket 21 with the upper end 21a.

  The exterior member 3 is a so-called electric shade, has a known shape or structure made of a material such as plastic, cloth, or wood, has a length in the vertical direction longer than that of the support member 1, and The lower end portion is placed on the stand 5 portion.

  The power cord unit 4 includes an intermediate switch 41 and a plug unit 42. The electrical connection between the power cord 4 and the light emitting member 2 (socket 21) is as shown in FIG. That is, the two sockets 21 arranged above and below are connected in parallel between the (−) terminals and between the (+) terminals respectively provided. The (−) terminal and the (+) terminal of the socket 21 arranged on the lower side are connected to the power cord portion 4.

  The stand part 5 is ring-shaped, a fixed part 51 to which one end (lower end) of the support member 1 is fixed at the center part, and leg parts 52 (circular circles at substantially equal intervals in the illustrated example) on the lower outer periphery side. Three legs provided on the circumference are formed respectively. In the illustrated example, the fixing portion 51 has a ring portion having an inner diameter substantially the same as the opening portion 11 of the supporting portion 1a of the supporting member 1.

  In the lighting fixture of the embodiment having the above configuration, a procedure for attaching the light emitting member 2 to the opening 11 of the support portion 1a of the support member 1 will be described with particular reference to FIG. That is, the light bulb 22 and the fixture 23 are first removed from the socket 21.
