Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] This invention relates to a frame mount used for attaching a frame to a lighting fixture.

[Background technology]

Existing lighting equipment 1 as shown in Figure 6
When attaching a frame 3 equipped with louvers 2 etc. as shown in the figure, conventionally, a frame mounting tool (hanger) as shown in Fig. 7 is used.
4 is used. Here, the lighting fixture 1 is shown as a Fuji type. As shown in the figure, the frame fixture 4 is a long body made by bending a metal plate, and includes a main body 4a having a sideways U-shaped cross section, and one side piece of the main body 4a. A receiving part 4b having an L-shaped cross section is provided at the lower end of the receiving part 16a so as to project laterally from the main body 4a with the tip facing upward, and two claws 4c are provided by notches in the other side piece 16b. .

The frame 3 is attached as follows. First, the frame fixture 4 is attached to the reflector plate (Fuji type reflector plate) 5 of the lighting fixture 1. Reflector plate 5
has an upward opening 5a, and an inward flange (lug) 6 is formed by bending the edge of the opening 5a.
is provided. The main body 4a of the frame fixture 4 is fitted into the protrusion 6a forming the side portion of the flange 6. At this time, the receiving portion 4b is made to come out of the reflecting plate 5. Next, the claw 4c is bent, and the protrusion 6a is sandwiched between the intermediate piece 16c of the main body 4a and the claw 4c, so that the frame mount 4 does not come off the reflector 5. Then, frame mounts 4 are attached to both sides of the reflector 5, and the frame 3 is mounted by hooking the protrusions provided on the frame 3 onto the receiving parts 4b of the frame mounts 4.

The conventional frame mount requires bending the claws when attaching it to the reflector, making it troublesome to attach the frame to the lighting fixture. Therefore, there has been a need for a frame mount that can be easily attached to the reflector.

[Purpose of invention]

This invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and the purpose of this invention is to provide a frame mount that can be easily attached to a reflector.

[Disclosure of invention]

To achieve the above object, this invention provides a frame mount used to attach a frame to a lighting fixture having an upward opening and a reflector plate having inward protrusions at both ends of the opening. The main body is provided with a main body that is placed on the side edge of the reflector, and the main body is provided with protrusions at both ends that are engaged with the protrusions of the reflector to prevent it from coming off. The gist of the present invention is a frame mount for a lighting device, characterized in that a receiving part for receiving the frame is provided on the facing side.

This idea will be explained in detail below.

FIG. 1 shows a frame fixture (hanger) according to this invention. As shown in the figure, the frame fixture 7 is an elongated body formed by bending a metal plate, and includes a main body 8 having a U-shaped cross section that is turned sideways. At the lower end of one side piece 8a of the main body 8, there is a receiving part 9 having an L-shaped cross section, with the tip facing away from the U-shaped opening, that is, upward, and
A protrusion 10 is provided at the front and rear ends of the other side piece 8b and extends from the side piece 8b.

This frame fixture 7 is used as shown in FIGS. 2-4. The case where the frame 3 shown in FIG. 6 is attached to the lighting fixture 1 shown in FIG. 6 will be explained. First, the frame fixture 7 is attached to the reflector plate 5. Here, the length from the tip of one protrusion 10 of the frame mount 7 to the tip of the other protrusion 10 is a (see FIG. 1), and the length of the main body 8 or the receiving portion 9 is
The length from the front end to the rear end is b, and the opening 5a
If the length of is c (see Figure 2), the diagonal length of the opening 8a is d, and the length from the inner surface of the front end to the inner surface of the rear end of the reflector plate 5 is e, then a is generally c must be longer than d and e, and b must be shorter than c. First, as shown in FIG. 2, the frame fixture 7 is tilted and dropped into the reflection plate 5 through the opening 5a. Next, align the length direction of the frame fixture 7 with the length direction of the opening 5a, lift the frame fixture 7, and insert the receiving part 9 into the opening 5a, as shown in FIG.
a, and at the front and rear ends of the opening 5a, a protrusion 6 forming a part of the flange 6 is provided.
The protrusions 10 are applied to the lower surfaces of b and 6c to lock them. The protrusion 10 prevents the frame attachment from coming off. Next, the receiving part 9 is lowered, and the main body 8 is placed on the side edge of the reflecting plate 5 so as to fit into a U-shape as shown in FIG. After attaching the frame mounts 7 to both sides of the reflector 5, attach the reflector 8.
is fixed to the main body 11 of the lighting fixture 1 using screws (thumb screws for fixing the reflector plate) 12, etc., and receives the protrusion 3a having an L-shaped cross section provided at the upper end of the frame 3 with the tip facing downward. It is listed in section 9. In this way, the frame 3 is attached to the lighting fixture 1. In Figure 4, 2 is the louver, 13 is the socket, 1
4 is a lamp, 15 is a ballast, and socket 1
3 is provided on the lower slope of the reflection plate 5, and the louver 2 is provided with a protrusion 3 provided on the lower end of the frame 3.
It is listed on b.

As mentioned above, the frame mount according to the present invention can be easily attached to the reflector without requiring the operation of bending the claws unlike conventional mounts. Therefore, by using the frame mount according to this invention, it is possible to easily mount a frame to a lighting fixture.

Note that the frame fixture according to this invention is not limited to the structure shown in FIG. 1, nor is it limited to one formed by bending a metal plate. For example, it may be as shown in FIG. This frame fixture 17 has a structure similar to that shown in FIG. 3, with the side piece 8b of the main body 8 bent into an L-shape. The frame fixture 17 is a long body formed by bending a metal plate, and has a main body with a substantially U-shaped cross section laid down sideways, and the lower end of the longer side piece (projecting piece) 18a of the main body 18. has a receiving part 19 with an L-shaped cross section, the tip of which is on the opposite side of the U-shaped opening,
That is, the protrusion piece 20 is provided to face upward and protrude laterally from the main body 18, and at the lower end of the shorter side piece 18b of the main body 18 is a protrusion piece 20 that protrudes outward.
is provided. A protrusion 21 extending from the protrusion piece 20 is provided at the front and rear ends of the protrusion piece 20. This frame mount is used in the same manner as in the previous embodiment.

[Effect of idea]

The frame mount for lighting equipment according to this invention is a frame mount used to attach a frame to a lighting equipment that has an upward opening and a reflector plate having inward protrusions at both ends of the opening. The main body is provided with a main body that is placed on the side edge of the reflector, and the main body is provided with protrusions at both ends that are engaged with the protrusions of the reflector to prevent it from coming off, and the protrusions are directed toward the outside of the main body. Since there is a receiving part on the side for receiving the frame, it can be easily attached to the reflector.
