Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
The rim adapter 13 of the ceiling luminaire 11 according to this embodiment is disposed between the ceiling provided with the rim 27 and the luminaire main body 21, so that the stable installation of the ceiling luminaire 11 can be performed. It is realized. The ceiling lighting device 11 may be provided with a sealing body 24 of the hook-type wiring device 12 on the flange edge 27 of the ceiling lighting device 11. When 21 is attached, the upper surface of the luminaire main body 21 is only in contact with the lower surface of the thin rim 27, and there is a risk of shaking with the rim 27 as a center. There is no denying the danger that the hook-type wiring device 12 will be damaged or the ceiling lighting device 11 will fall. Then, the stable lighting fixture 11 for a ceiling is implement | achieved by using the collar adapter 13 which concerns on this invention. In the following description, the longitudinal direction of the collar 27 is described as the front-rear direction, and the direction orthogonal to the same direction is described as the left-right direction. However, these relationships only indicate a relative positional relationship.

  The rim adapter 13 according to this embodiment is arranged between the ceiling provided with the rim 27 and the luminaire main body 21 so that the ceiling luminaire 11 can be stably attached without stumbling. The support 31 made of a rigid material such as metal or hard synthetic resin, the ceiling surface corresponding part 14 attached to the upper surface thereof, and the elastic member 15 attached to the ceiling surface corresponding part 14 With.

  The support 31 is a disk-shaped member having an insertion portion 33 for allowing the hook-type wiring device 12 to pass through in the center, and a counter device portion 32 is provided at a lower portion thereof. This anti-apparatus part 32 abuts on the upper surface of the luminaire main body 21 for stable attachment, and the entire lower surface of the support 31 may abut on the luminaire main body 21. Then, the counter instrument part 32 made of an elastic member such as a sponge is provided on the outer periphery of the support 31 in an annular shape. By providing the anti-instrument part 32 in an annular shape, the entire illuminating device main body 21 can be contacted substantially evenly, and insects can be prevented from entering to exhibit insect-proof performance.

  The insertion portion 33 is an opening larger than the sealing body 24 of the hook-type wiring device 12 fixed to the flange 27 and can pass the sealing body 24. On the other hand, an opening is smaller than the sealing adapter 25 that is detachably attached to the lower portion of the sealing body 24, and a counter-sealing adapter portion 34 that abuts on the upper surface of the sealing adapter 25 is provided. Specifically, the support 31 includes a cylindrical portion extending downward at the center thereof, the central opening of the cylindrical portion is the insertion portion 33, and the lower end of the cylindrical portion is the anti-ceiling adapter portion 34. . During the mounting operation, the sealing body 24 is passed through the insertion portion 33 of the support 31 and the sealing adapter 25 is attached to the sealing body 24 that slightly protrudes from the insertion portion 33, so that the ceiling adapter portion 34 is mounted on the upper surface of the sealing adapter 25. In this state, the collar adapter 13 is supported by the hook-type wiring device 12.

  Next, a ceiling surface corresponding portion 14 is attached to the upper surface of the support 31 of the flange adapter 13. This attachment can be performed by a non-removable fixing means such as welding or a removable fixing means such as a screw. In this example, the ceiling surface corresponding portion 14 is a member in which three step portions having different heights, ie, a first corresponding portion 41, a second corresponding portion 42, and a third corresponding portion 43, are provided in a step shape in the order of height. It is made of a rigid material such as metal or hard synthetic resin. In this example, one ceiling surface corresponding portion 14 is attached to each of the four locations of right front, left front, right rear, and left rear in plan view. Or, conversely, the number and the position of providing one can be changed as appropriate. Further, the two right and left ceiling surface corresponding parts 14 can be connected and integrated, or all the ceiling surface corresponding parts 14 can be connected and integrated.

  The flange 27 is arranged between the left and right ceiling surface corresponding portions 14. More specifically, lighting fixtures in the valley between the front right ceiling surface corresponding portion 14 and the left front ceiling surface corresponding portion 14 and in the valley between the right rear ceiling surface corresponding portion 14 and the left rear ceiling surface corresponding portion 14. The upper surface of the main body 21 serves as a flange corresponding portion 44. Therefore, the length between the left and right ceiling surface corresponding portions 14 is set to be longer than the left and right width of the flange 27. Therefore, in this example, in a state where the collar edge 27 is coordinated above the collar edge corresponding part 44, two first corresponding parts 41 and two second corresponding parts symmetrically sandwiching the collar edge corresponding part 44. 42 and the 3rd corresponding | compatible part 43 are coordinated. In the front-rear direction, two first corresponding portions 41, second corresponding portions 42, and third corresponding portions 43 are arranged symmetrically in the front-rear direction across the insertion portion 33. Stable support in the direction is realized.

  An elastic member 15 is arranged on each ceiling surface corresponding part 14. The elastic member 15 is fixed on any one of the first corresponding part 41, the second corresponding part 42, and the third corresponding part 43 depending on the vertical length of the flange 27. For this fixing, various fixing means such as screws, pins, clips, etc. can be used in addition to adhesives and adhesives. In addition, since this fixing is only necessary to prevent falling off during the work, it may be a fixing or locking that is easy to remove, such as concavity and convexity or a slight adhesive, or simply arranged without fixing at all. It ’s enough. Specifically, when the vertical length of the collar edge 27 is 24 to 27 mm, the elastic member 15 is arranged on the first corresponding portion 41 (see FIGS. 4A and 5). When the vertical length is 27 to 31 mm, the elastic member 15 is arranged on the second corresponding portion 42 (see FIGS. 4B and 6). When the vertical length is 31 to 34 mm, the elastic member 15 is disposed on the third corresponding portion 43 (see FIGS. 4C and 7).

  The flange adapter 13 is placed between the lighting fixture body 21 and the ceiling 26 in a state where the elastic member 15 is compressed. It will be attached to the ceiling 26 stably while receiving a repulsive force.

  Here, as a more desirable form of the elastic member 15, a sponge formed by foaming plastic such as polyurethane or rubber is used. More preferably, the elastic member 15 has a multi-layer structure of a lower sponge 51 and an upper sponge 52, and the lower sponge 51 is a harder sponge than the upper sponge 52. If only a hard sponge is used, there may be a case where the upper and lower dimensional difference of about 3 to 4 mm cannot be sufficiently absorbed when compressed. On the other hand, if only a soft sponge is used, there is a possibility that the ceiling lighting apparatus 11 cannot be reliably supported because there is no waist. Therefore, by using both in combination, it is possible to achieve a reliable support while absorbing a vertical dimensional difference of about 3 to 4 mm when the ceiling lighting device 11 is mounted.

  5 and 6 prevents the third corresponding portion 43 from coming into direct contact with the ceiling and damaging the ceiling when the mounting is completed, and is composed of a soft sponge. However, it can be appropriately selected and used as long as it can prevent scratches due to contact, such as a tape or sheet of synthetic resin or cloth.

Next, a procedure for attaching the ceiling lighting fixture 11 to the ceiling provided with the collar 27 using the collar adapter 13 according to this embodiment will be described.
(1) The vertical height of the collar 27 is measured.
(2) According to the measurement result, the elastic member 15 is determined and fixed at any position of the first corresponding part 41, the second corresponding part 42, and the third corresponding part 43. In addition, it is also desirable to provide a dedicated gauge with a memory indicating which position of the first corresponding portion 41, the second corresponding portion 42, and the third corresponding portion 43 the elastic member 15 should be fixed to. Further, this gauge can be printed on the instruction manual or the packaging box of the flange adapter 13.
(3) Position the collar adapter 13 on the collar edge 27. Specifically, the sealing body 24 attached to the collar edge 27 is passed through the insertion part 33 while the collar edge 27 extends along the collar edge corresponding part 44.
(4) The sealing adapter 25 is attached to the sealing body 24 while lifting the collar adapter 13 to compress the elastic member 15. At that time, the ceiling adapter portion 34 of the insertion portion 33 is placed on the upper surface of the ceiling adapter 25 so that the collar adapter 13 is supported. Therefore, even if the hand is released from the collar adapter 13, it does not fall.
(5) The ceiling lighting device 11 is fixed to the locking claw 28 of the ceiling adapter 25 through the ceiling adapter 25 through the central hole 23 of the ceiling lighting device 11. At that time, it is most preferable that the counter instrument part 32 is compressed, the elastic member 15 is slightly compressed, and the anti-ceiling adapter part 34 is slightly lifted from the upper surface of the sealing adapter 25 than the state (4). Even if the elastic adapter 15 is not compressed as compared with the state (4) and the sealing adapter part 34 is kept in contact with the upper surface of the sealing adapter 25, there is no problem in using it.

Thus, the installation of the ceiling lighting device 11 is completed, and the ceiling lighting device 11 is engaged with the ceiling adapter 25 in a state where the device unit 32 and the elastic member 15 are compressed (in other words, in a stretched state). It is stopped and a stable support to the ceiling is realized. In addition, as described above, it is possible to reliably support the device without fine adjustment of the device.
The flange adapter 13 can be used not only for the round ceiling lighting fixture 11 but also for the square ceiling lighting fixture 11 as shown in FIG. The support 31 is made of a metal plate. However, the support 31 is not necessarily formed of a plate-like member, provided that the ceiling lighting device 11 can be passed, and that the ceiling surface corresponding part and the device part can be supported. Alternatively, it may be composed of a metal pipe or bar.
