That is, a pair of screw insertion holes (not shown) are provided in the mounting substrate 21 of the light source block 2 with a through hole interposed therebetween, and the mounting screw 23 inserted through the screw insertion hole is interposed via the spacer 24. The plurality of light source blocks 2 are fixed to the heat conducting plate 5 by screwing into screw holes (not shown) penetrating the heat conducting plate 5 (see FIG. 1). At this time, the mounting position of the light source block 2 with respect to the heat conducting plate 5 is a position where the light emitting diodes 20 are arranged at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction. An insulating sheet 6 made of a material having electrical insulation is interposed between the heat conductive sheet 22 and the heat conductive plate 5.

  The heat conductive plate 5 to which the light source block 2 is fixed is attached to the instrument body 1 using a pair of mounting brackets 7 (see FIG. 3). The mounting bracket 7 includes a pair of mounting pieces 70 and 70 through which screw holes (not shown) are provided, a pair of standing pieces 71 and 71 that rise upward from the end edges of the mounting pieces 70 and 70, and a pair of mounting pieces 70 and 70. A fixed piece 72 bridged at the ends of the upright pieces 71 and 71 is integrally formed by bending a band-shaped metal plate. Then, as shown in FIG. 1A, an attachment screw 23 for attaching the light source block 2 to the heat conducting plate 5 is inserted into a screw insertion hole (not shown) penetrating the support plate 10 and supported. The instrument body 1 is sandwiched between the mounting pieces 70 and 70 and the heat conducting plate 5 by screwing into the screw holes of the pair of mounting pieces 70 and 70 on the upper surface side of the plate 10. A heat conduction plate 5 (light source block 2) is attached to the slab. A light diffusing plate 8 made of a synthetic resin material is placed on the upper ends of the plurality of louvers 3 (see FIG. 1A), and the light emitted from the light emitting diode 20 is diffused by the light diffusing plate 8. ing.

  Next, the ceiling bars 4 and 4 to which the appliance main body 1 is attached will be described.

  The pair of ceiling bars 4 and 4 have the same shape, and as shown in FIGS. 1B and 4, a main part 40 having a long rectangular plate shape and a main part 40 along the longitudinal direction of the main part 40. A fixing bracket mounting portion 41 that protrudes outward from the upper end of the portion 40 and on which the fixing bracket 9 (described later) is mounted, and a horizontal piece 42 connected to the lower end of the main portion 40 along the longitudinal direction of the main portion 40. And a contact portion 43 that hangs downward from one end portion of the horizontal piece 42 along the longitudinal direction of the main portion 40, and extends obliquely downward from the lower end of the contact portion 43 along the longitudinal direction of the main portion 40. The light distribution portion 44 and the mounting portion 45 provided at the lower end of the light distribution portion 44 along the longitudinal direction of the main portion 40 are integrally formed by processing a metal plate such as a steel plate or an aluminum plate. Become. The pair of ceiling bars 4 and 4 are suspended from the ceiling of the structure by a predetermined distance in a direction in which the mounting portions 45 and 45 are located on the outside. The peripheral portion of the material 110 is placed (see FIGS. 1B and 4).

  The fixture 9 is formed by bending a strip-shaped metal plate into a bowl shape, and is inserted into a space surrounded by the standing pieces 71 and 71 and the fixture 72 of the fixture 7 as shown in FIG. The mounting brackets 41 and 41 are placed so as to straddle the pair of ceiling bars 4 and 4. That is, by mounting the pair of mounting brackets 7, 7 attached to the instrument body 1 on the fixing brackets 9, 9 bridged between the fixing bracket mounting portions 41, 41 of the pair of ceiling bars 4, 4. The instrument body 1 is fixed to the ceiling bars 4 and 4. Here, the fixing piece 72 of the mounting bracket 7 is provided with a screw hole 72a, and the tip of the adjustment screw 73 screwed into the screw hole 72a is in contact with the fixing bracket 9 (see FIG. 1B). The vertical position of the instrument body 1 with respect to the ceiling bars 4 and 4 can be adjusted by screwing the adjustment screw 73 with respect to the fixed piece 72. The width dimension of the fixing bracket 9 is set to be slightly shorter than the distance between the pair of standing pieces 71 and 71 in the mounting bracket 7 (see FIG. 1A), and the length of the ceiling bars 4 and 4 is long. The instrument body 1 is substantially fixed also in the direction.

  In a state where the instrument main body 1 is attached to the ceiling bars 4 and 4, louvers 3 and 3 are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the instrument main body 1 below the respective light source blocks 2 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. In addition, the light distribution portions 44 and 44 of the ceiling bars 4 and 4 are arranged in the short direction of the instrument body 1, respectively, and are latticed surrounded by the pair of louvers 3 and 3 and the pair of light distribution portions 44 and 44. The light emitting diode 20 is disposed in the center of the space. And among the light radiated | emitted from the light emitting diode 20, a part of light radiated | emitted in the transversal direction of the instrument main body 1 is reflected by the light distribution parts 44 and 44, light distribution is controlled, and the instrument main body 1 Glare is suppressed by blocking a part of the light emitted in the longitudinal direction by the louvers 3 and 3.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, the light emitting diodes 20 of the plurality of light source blocks 2 supported by the long instrument body 1 are provided so as to be arranged in a straight line at equal intervals along the longitudinal direction of the instrument body 1. Therefore, unlike the conventional example in which a straight tube fluorescent lamp is used as a light source, the light quantity at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the instrument body does not decrease, so that it is possible to realize line illumination in which the light quantity along the longitudinal direction is substantially uniform. it can. In addition, in the present embodiment, since the plurality of louvers 3 are arranged at equal intervals along the longitudinal direction of the instrument body 1, the uniformity of the amount of light along the longitudinal direction can be improved.

  By the way, the lighting fixture A of this embodiment has a plurality of units embedded therein so as to be arranged linearly along the longitudinal direction between the pair of ceiling bars 4 and 4. In the present embodiment, when a plurality of instrument bodies 1 are arranged between the ceiling bars 4 and 4 so as to be linearly arranged along the longitudinal direction, the instrument bodies 1 are arranged at both ends in the longitudinal direction. Each louver 3 is arranged at a position where the interval between the louvers 3 is equal to the interval between the other louvers 3 excluding both ends. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, the louver 3 is not provided at one end in the longitudinal direction (the left end in FIG. 3), and the distance from the left louver 3 to the left end of the instrument body 1 is made equal to the interval between the louvers 3. Also, since the louver 3 is provided only at the other end in the longitudinal direction (the right end in FIG. 3), when the left end of one instrument body 1 and the right end of the other instrument body 1 are aligned with each other, The right end louver 3 of the other instrument body 1 is located at the left end of the instrument body 1, and the distance between the left end louver 3 of one instrument body 1 and the right end louver 3 of the other instrument body 1 is set to the respective instrument body. The distance between the louvers 3 at 1 and 1 can be made equal.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the plurality of instrument bodies 1 are arranged between the ceiling bars 4 and 4 so as to be linearly arranged along the longitudinal direction, both end portions in the longitudinal direction of the respective instrument bodies 1 are arranged. Since each louver 3 is arranged at a position where the interval between the louvers 3 arranged on the same is equal to the interval between other louvers 3 except for both ends, the plurality of instrument bodies 1 are arranged in the longitudinal direction. Thus, the uniformity of the amount of light along the linear direction can be improved.

  By the way, the luminous efficiency of light-emitting diodes decreases when the temperature rises due to self-heating due to energization. Therefore, in lighting fixtures that use light-emitting diodes as the light source, the heat generated by the light-emitting diodes can be efficiently dissipated, and It is important to suppress the rise. Therefore, in the lighting fixture A of this embodiment, the heat conductive plate 5 thermally coupled to the base 20a of the light emitting diode 20 is brought into close contact with the metal fixture main body 1 so that the light emitting diode 20 and the fixture main body 1 are heated. The heat generated by the light emitting diode 20 is conducted to the instrument body 1 to improve heat dissipation. Further, since the plurality of louvers 3 are integrally formed on the instrument main body 1, the plurality of louvers 3 can function as heat radiating fins to further improve the heat dissipation. Further, since the side plates 11 and 11 of the appliance main body 1 are in contact (adhering) with the contact portions 43 and 43 of the ceiling bars 4 and 4, the light emitting diode 20 is connected to the ceiling bars 4 and 4 via the appliance main body 1. In addition, there is an advantage that heat dissipation can be further improved by thermal coupling.

  In addition, as the light emitting diode 20 which comprises the light source block 2, you may employ | adopt the structure provided with the lens part 20c for condensing the light taken out from the dome-shaped cap 20b as shown in FIG. The lens portion 20 c is formed by integrally forming a condensing convex lens 20 d and a support 20 e that supports the convex lens 20 d with a synthetic resin material having translucency, and is mounted on the lower surface of the mounting substrate 21.
