前記ケースカバーが前記センサ基板を弾性的に保持したため、突起部に外力が加わっても弾性により吸収できるので突起部およびセンサ基板の損傷を防止できこれらを保護することができる。また前記突起部が前記器具開口部に接触したため、器具本体の器具開口部と突起部の位置関係を一定に保つことができ、突起部に設けたセンサの検知エリアをより一層一定に保つことができる。
【0017】
請求項2記載の照明器具は、請求項1において、前記蓋部が前記ケースカバーと別体に形成され、前記ケースカバーの前記底部の前記折曲部に前記蓋部を外側から嵌合する角孔が形成され、前記角孔の内側に前記蓋部を受ける受け段を設け、前記蓋部は前記角孔に嵌合して前記受け段に係止する板部と、前記板部の中央に貫通した筒部と、前記板部の両端に形成して前記角孔の縁部に抜け止め係止する爪部を有するものである。
【0018】

【0023】
【発明の実施の形態】
この発明の第1の実施の形態を図1から図4により説明する。すなわち、この照明器具は、天井埋込型であり、器具本体1と、センサブロック2とを有する。
【0024】
器具本体1は、図2に示すように天井3の埋込穴4に嵌め込まれ、天井裏の取付ボルト5に座金6とナット7により取付けられる。器具本体1には中央の長手方向に沿ってに富士形反射板8が取付けられ、器具本体1の両端にランプソケット9が取付けられ、反射板8の前側でランプソケット9に直管形のランプ10が装着される。また反射板8の裏面側に安定器11およびセンサブロック2が取付けられる。センサブロック2に対応して図1に示すように反射板8の断面山形の頂部に凹曲面12が形成され、その底部に貫通孔13が形成されている。14は電源線である。
【0025】
センサブロック2は、図3および図4に示すように、ケース15とセンサ16を有する。ケース15はケース本体17と、ケースカバー18からなる。ケース本体17は底浅の箱形であり、ケースカバー18は断面略V字形である。ケースカバー18は開口縁のほぼ四隅の位置にケース本体17の係止受け(図示せず)に係止する取付爪20を突設している。また開口縁の中央の内側より一対の主基板保持用爪19を突出し、ケースカバー18の中央より外方に円筒状の蓋部21を一体に突出し、ケースカバー18の蓋部21の裏面側に一対のセンサ基板保持用爪22を突出している。23は出力線挿通部である。
【0026】
センサ16は、主基板24と可撓な接続線25で接続されたセンサ基板26とを有し、センサ基板26に突起部27を取付け固定し、突起部27の先端にセンサ16を設けている。センサ16はその検知信号を主基板24に送り、主基板24では検知信号により照明器具のランプ10を点灯制御するものである。突起部27を図4に示すように蓋部21に通し、センサ基板26の前面をケースカバー18の内面に当接した状態で、センサ基板26の側縁にセンサ基板保持用爪22が係止し、保持状態となる。さらに主基板24を主基板保持用爪19に引っ掛け、図4(b)に示すようにケース本体17に取付爪20でケースカバー18を取付ける。図4に示すように突起部27はその先端が筒部よりも若干突出している。
【0027】
このセンサブロック2のケース本体17を器具本体1に取付け、反射板8を器具本体1に取付けると、図1に示すよう反射板8の凹曲面12の貫通孔13に突起部27が貫通しセンサ16が器具の外部に露出することとなる。この場合、センサ16を反射板8の貫通孔13の裏側縁部に当接してもよい。
【0028】
この実施の形態によれば、回路基板24、26およびケース15を介して突起部27が器具本体1に取付けられるため、突起部27と器具本体1の位置関係を一定にできるので、突起部27にセンサ16を設けることにより、器具本体1に対する検知エリアを一定にすることができる。とくに、センサ基板26をケースカバー18に保持するため、ケースカバー18の蓋部21の開口部とセンサ16の位置関係を一定に保つことができ、センサ16の突出量を一定に保ち、ケース本体17とケースカバー18間の隙間やケース本体17のたわみの影響を受けない。したがって、ケース本体17、および器具本体1を介して反射板8の貫通孔13との関係も一定にでき、センサ16の検知エリアを一定にできることとなる。また主基板24をケースカバー18に仮保持可能としたため、組立容易になる。
【0029】
センサ16の検出信号を出力するセンサ基板26と、その制御回路を有する主基板24とを分離することにより、外力を受ける突起部27によって主基板24が変形等の影響を受けるのを防止できる。
【0030】
この発明の第2の実施の形態を図5に示す。すなわち、第1の実施の形態のセンサ基板保持用爪22を、ケースカバー18の略V字形をなす斜面より突起部27の突出方向に対して例えば略45度の傾斜姿勢に突出して、センサ基板保持用爪22の樹脂弾性により突起部27の突出方向に対して弾性を付与するようにしたものである。
【0031】
図5(b)に示すように、反射板8の貫通孔13の口縁に突起部27の先端のセンサ16の周縁が当接するようにしている。その他は第1の実施の形態と同様である。
【0032】
この実施の形態によれば、センサ基板26が弾性体を構成するセンサ基板保持用爪22により保持されているため、蓋部21より突出している寸法分ケース内側方向に移動することができるので、センサ16に外力が加わった場合にセンサ16は内側に移動しケースカバー18内に入り込むと、その後外力はケースカバー18で受けるのでセンサ16を外力から保護することができ、センサ基板26の保護にもなる。
【0033】
この発明の第3の実施の形態を図6に示す。すなわち、第1の実施の形態におけるセンサ基板保持用爪22に代えて、ケース本体17に主基板24を貫通する例えば筒状の一対の支持体33に例えばコイルばねを用いたばね34を設け、センサ基板26に設けたガイド35をばね34に貫通して支持体33に挿入し、支持体33に所定範囲移動可能に取付けたものである。したがって、突起部27のセンサ16の先端部を反射板8の貫通孔13の縁部に弾性係止することができ、また外力が突起部27に加わっても第2の実施の形態と同様にセンサ16を蓋部21の先端まで後退することができる。なお支持体33をセンサ基板26をばね34で連結してガイド35を省略してもよい。
【0034】
器具開口部となる貫通孔13の裏面縁部とセンサ16を接触させることにより、両者の位置関係を一定に保つことができるので、一定の検知エリアをより一層確保することができる。またセンサ16が外力によって押されるときセンサ16を開口部まで可動することができるので、センサ16およびセンサ基板26を保護することができる。
【0035】
この発明の第4の実施の形態を図7および図8に示す。すなわち、第1の実施の形態において、蓋部21がケースカバー18と別体に形成されたものである。この場合、ケースカバー18の中央には角孔37が形成され、保持用爪22の基部に蓋部21を受ける受け段38を設けている。蓋部21は角孔37に嵌合可能な板部39と板部39の中央に貫通した筒部40と、板部39の両端に形成した爪部41からなる。
【0036】
蓋部21の板部39をケースカバー18の表側から角孔37に挿入し受け段38に係止すると同時に爪部41が角孔37の縁部に係止して固定される。その他は、第1の実施の形態と同様である。
【0037】
この発明の第5の実施の形態を図9に示す。すなわち、第2の実施の形態において、蓋部21が第4の実施の形態と同様にケースカバー18と別体に形成されたものである。38′は角孔37の縁部に設けた受け段であり、受け段38と同じ機能を有する。40は蓋部21からセンサ16の突出量であり、センサ可動範囲である。
【0038】
この発明の第6の実施の形態を図10に示す。すなわち、第3の実施の形態において、蓋部21が第4および第5の実施の形態と同様にケースカバー18と別体に形成されたものである。
【0039】
なお、この発明において、突起部27の先端にセンサ16を設けているが、突起部27をセンサで構成してもよい。
【0040】

前記ケースがケース本体およびケースカバーを有し、前記センサ基板は前記突起部を固定し、前記センサ基板は前記ケースカバーで保持するため、組立容易になるとともに、ケースカバーの突起部を露出する部分とセンサの位置関係を一定にでき、ケース本体とケースカバーの間の隙間やケース本体のたわみの影響を受けない。
前記ケースカバーが各基板を保持する保持用爪を有するため、各基板を取付け容易にできる。

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. That is, this lighting fixture is a ceiling-embedded type and has a fixture body 1 and a sensor block 2.
[0024]
As shown in FIG. 2, the instrument main body 1 is fitted into the embedding hole 4 of the ceiling 3 and is attached to the mounting bolt 5 on the back of the ceiling by a washer 6 and a nut 7. A Fuji-type reflector 8 is attached to the appliance body 1 along the central longitudinal direction, lamp sockets 9 are attached to both ends of the appliance body 1, and a straight tube lamp is attached to the lamp socket 9 on the front side of the reflector 8. 10 is mounted. Further, the ballast 11 and the sensor block 2 are attached to the back side of the reflecting plate 8. Corresponding to the sensor block 2, as shown in FIG. 1, a concave curved surface 12 is formed at the top of the mountain-shaped cross section of the reflecting plate 8, and a through hole 13 is formed at the bottom. Reference numeral 14 denotes a power line.
[0025]
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the sensor block 2 includes a case 15 and a sensor 16. The case 15 includes a case main body 17 and a case cover 18. The case body 17 has a shallow bottom box shape, and the case cover 18 has a substantially V-shaped cross section. The case cover 18 is provided with projecting claws 20 projectingly engaged with locking receptacles (not shown) of the case body 17 at substantially four corners of the opening edge. Further, a pair of main substrate holding claws 19 protrude from the inside of the center of the opening edge, and a cylindrical lid portion 21 protrudes integrally from the center of the case cover 18 to the back side of the lid portion 21 of the case cover 18. A pair of sensor board holding claws 22 protrude. Reference numeral 23 denotes an output line insertion portion.
[0026]
The sensor 16 has a main substrate 24 and a sensor substrate 26 connected by a flexible connection line 25, and a protrusion 27 is attached and fixed to the sensor substrate 26, and the sensor 16 is provided at the tip of the protrusion 27. . The sensor 16 sends the detection signal to the main board 24, and the main board 24 controls lighting of the lamp 10 of the lighting fixture by the detection signal. As shown in FIG. 4, the projection 27 is passed through the lid 21, and the sensor substrate holding claw 22 is engaged with the side edge of the sensor substrate 26 with the front surface of the sensor substrate 26 being in contact with the inner surface of the case cover 18. And it will be in a holding state. Further, the main board 24 is hooked on the main board holding claws 19 and the case cover 18 is attached to the case main body 17 with the mounting claws 20 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the tip of the protrusion 27 protrudes slightly from the cylindrical portion.
[0027]
When the case main body 17 of the sensor block 2 is attached to the instrument main body 1 and the reflection plate 8 is attached to the instrument main body 1, the protrusion 27 penetrates the through hole 13 of the concave curved surface 12 of the reflection plate 8 as shown in FIG. 16 will be exposed outside the instrument. In this case, the sensor 16 may be in contact with the rear side edge of the through hole 13 of the reflecting plate 8.
[0028]
According to this embodiment, since the protrusion 27 is attached to the instrument main body 1 via the circuit boards 24 and 26 and the case 15, the positional relationship between the protrusion 27 and the instrument main body 1 can be made constant. By providing the sensor 16 with the sensor 16, the detection area for the instrument body 1 can be made constant. In particular, since the sensor substrate 26 is held by the case cover 18, the positional relationship between the opening of the lid portion 21 of the case cover 18 and the sensor 16 can be kept constant, the amount of protrusion of the sensor 16 can be kept constant, and the case body 17 and the case cover 18 and the case body 17 are not affected by the deflection. Therefore, the relationship between the case main body 17 and the instrument main body 1 and the through hole 13 of the reflector 8 can be made constant, and the detection area of the sensor 16 can be made constant. Further, since the main board 24 can be temporarily held on the case cover 18, assembly is facilitated.
[0029]
By separating the sensor substrate 26 that outputs the detection signal of the sensor 16 from the main substrate 24 having the control circuit, the main substrate 24 can be prevented from being affected by deformation or the like by the projection 27 that receives an external force.
[0030]
A second embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. That is, the sensor substrate holding claw 22 of the first embodiment protrudes in an inclined posture of, for example, approximately 45 degrees with respect to the protruding direction of the protrusion 27 from the substantially V-shaped inclined surface of the case cover 18, Elasticity is imparted to the protruding direction of the protrusion 27 by the resin elasticity of the holding claws 22.
[0031]
As shown in FIG. 5 (b), the periphery of the sensor 16 at the tip of the projection 27 is in contact with the lip of the through hole 13 of the reflecting plate 8. Others are the same as in the first embodiment.
[0032]
According to this embodiment, since the sensor substrate 26 is held by the sensor substrate holding claws 22 constituting the elastic body, the sensor substrate 26 can be moved inwardly by the dimension protruding from the lid portion 21. When an external force is applied to the sensor 16, the sensor 16 moves inward and enters the case cover 18. Thereafter, the external force is received by the case cover 18, so that the sensor 16 can be protected from the external force. Also become.
[0033]
A third embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. That is, instead of the sensor substrate holding claw 22 in the first embodiment, a spring 34 using, for example, a coil spring is provided on a pair of cylindrical support bodies 33 that penetrate the main substrate 24 in the case body 17, for example. A guide 35 provided on the substrate 26 is inserted into the support 33 through the spring 34 and attached to the support 33 so as to be movable within a predetermined range. Therefore, the tip of the sensor 16 of the protrusion 27 can be elastically locked to the edge of the through hole 13 of the reflector 8, and even if an external force is applied to the protrusion 27, the same as in the second embodiment. The sensor 16 can be retracted to the tip of the lid portion 21. Note that the guide 35 may be omitted by connecting the support 33 to the sensor substrate 26 with the spring 34.
[0034]
Since the sensor 16 is brought into contact with the back edge of the through-hole 13 serving as the instrument opening, the positional relationship between the two can be kept constant, so that a constant detection area can be further secured. Further, since the sensor 16 can be moved to the opening when the sensor 16 is pushed by an external force, the sensor 16 and the sensor substrate 26 can be protected.
[0035]

【The invention's effect】
According to the lighting device of the first aspect, since the projection is fixed to the instrument body via the sensor substrate and the case, the positional relationship between the projection and the instrument body can be made constant, so that the sensor is provided on the projection. Thereby, the detection area with respect to an instrument main body can be made constant.
The case has a case main body and a case cover, the sensor substrate fixes the protrusion, and the sensor substrate is held by the case cover, so that the assembly is easy and the portion of the case cover that exposes the protrusion The position of the sensor and the sensor can be kept constant, and the sensor is not affected by the gap between the case body and the case cover or the deflection of the case body.
Since the case cover has holding claws for holding the substrates, the substrates can be easily attached.
Since the circuit board is separated into the sensor board and the main board that fix the protrusions, the board that outputs the detection signal and the board that has the control circuit can be separated, and the main part is separated by the protrusions that receive external force. It is possible to prevent the substrate from being affected by deformation or the like.
Since the case cover elastically holds the sensor substrate, even if an external force is applied to the protruding portion, it can be absorbed by elasticity, so that the protruding portion and the sensor substrate can be prevented from being damaged and protected. In addition, since the protrusion comes into contact with the instrument opening, the positional relationship between the instrument opening of the instrument body and the protrusion can be kept constant, and the detection area of the sensor provided on the protrusion can be kept more constant. it can.
