It is integrally formed by being connected by a connecting plate portion 44 inclined downward toward the front side. Then, on the upper surface of the substrate portion 42, a ballast 46 and a capacitor 47 which constitute the lighting device are formed.
Are attached with screws and nuts, and a terminal block 48 is attached to the lower surface of the substrate portion 42. Further, the board portion 42 is formed with a notch portion 42a for leading in a power source that communicates with the rear edge portion,
A pair of mounting fittings 49, 49 on both sides are fixed to the lower surface of the board portion 42.

Further, on the front surface of the lamp socket mounting plate portion 43, a lamp socket 51 is mounted at the center of the lamp socket mounting plate portion 43 in the width direction, and the mercury lamp L is attached to the lamp socket 51. Is installed.

The ballast 46, the capacitor 47, the terminal block 48, and the lamp socket 51, which are integrally mounted on the mounting board 41, are connected to each other by electric wires 53 as wirings, and the lighting unit 55 is connected. It is configured.

And, this lighting unit 55 is a device main body.
Mounting holes 57 that are fitted to the rear side of the fitting frame portion 25 of 21 and are formed in the vicinity of the peripheral edge of the mounting substrate 41 and the mounting frame portion 24, respectively.
It is fixed to the instrument body 21 by a screw 60 attached to the screw 58 and a nut 60a screwed to the screw 60. Also,
In this state, the mercury lamp L attached to the lamp socket 51 optically opposes the pair of reflectors 31 on both sides.

A glove unit 61 is attached to the lower side of the instrument body 21, and the glove unit 61 makes the lower opening of the instrument body 21 and the lighting unit 55 attached to the instrument body 21 watertight. It is supposed to be covered. The globe unit 61 is configured by attaching a light-transmitting globe 63 to the globe frame 62. Further, the glove frame 62 has a glove mounting hole 64a for mounting the glove 63 formed on the front side of a lower plate part 64 having a substantially rectangular shape in plan view, and a lower plate part 64.
On the rear side, a pair of fixing parts 64b on both sides are recessed upward, and further, from the peripheral edge of the lower plate part 64, a fitting frame part 64c in the shape of a rectangular tube is formed upward. It has been extended.

The globe 63 is integrally formed of a translucent material into a substantially box-like shape having an open upper surface, and the mounting plate portion 66 extends in four directions from the upper edge.
Has been extended. The globe 63 is fitted in the globe mounting hole 64a from the upper side, and the globe pressers 67a and 67b having a substantially L-shaped cross section are applied to the upper surfaces of the front, rear, left and right mounting plate portions 66, respectively. , 67b
Is fixed to the lower plate portion 64 of the glove frame 62 with screws 69, so that the mounting plate portions 66 are fixed to the glove frame 62 while being sandwiched between the glove pressers 67a and 67b and the glove frame 62. ing.

A waterproof packing (not shown) is attached to the upper surface of the glove frame 62 so as to be in close contact with the glove 63.

A light shielding plate 71 is attached to the glove unit 61 if necessary. The light-shielding plate 71 includes a light-shielding portion 72 having no light-transmitting property, a mounting portion 73 extending from an upper edge of the light-shielding portion 72, and a light-shielding portion.
Reinforcing portions 74, 74 extending from both side portions of 72 are integrally formed of a material having no translucency. The light shielding plate 71 is used in place of the rear side glove retainer 67a, and is fixed to the glove frame 62 by attaching the mounting portion 73 to the glove frame 62 with a screw 69. Then, in this state, the light shielding portion 72 is arranged along the inner side of the globe 63 so as to shield the light beam irradiated from the mercury lamp L backward.

In the glove unit 61, the front end portion of the fitting frame portion 64c of the glove frame 62 is connected to the hinges 35, 35, and the set screws attached to the fixing portions 64b, 64b of the glove frame 62 from below. By screwing 75, 75 onto the mounting brackets 49, 49 of the mounting substrate 41, the fitting body 64c of the glove frame 62 is fitted inside the fitting frame 25 of the equipment body 21,
It is attached to 21 so that it can be opened and closed.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, in this lighting fixture, a metal band 77 inserted through the mounting hole 29 of the mounting arm 27 is wound around a utility pole 78 and is tightened, whereby
A power line (not shown), which is attached to the power pole 78 side while being attached to the power pole 78, is introduced from the power line introduction port 33 into the inside of the instrument body 21, and is connected to the terminal block 48 through the notch 42a. There is.

According to the present embodiment, the mounting board 41
The lamp socket 51, the ballast 46 and the condenser 47 that constitute the lighting device, the terminal block 48, and all other electrical components including the electrical components necessary for lighting the mercury lamp L, and the electric wire 53 that connects these components to each other are attached. Lighting unit 55
The lighting unit 55 is attached to the instrument main body 21. Therefore, it is not necessary to directly attach the electric parts 46, 47, 48, 51 to the large and heavy appliance body 21, and the electric parts 46, 47, 48, 51 can be attached to the appliance body 21.
Since it may be mounted on the mounting board 41 that is smaller than 21 and is light, the workability of assembling the lighting fixture is improved and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

In addition, the lighting unit 55 is assembled in advance, and the lighting unit 55 is mounted on the mounting substrate 41 with the electric components such as the lamp socket 51 and the electric wires 53 for connecting the electric components. It is possible to easily carry out an energization lighting inspection, etc. without mounting it on. Therefore, the manufacturing process of the lighting unit 55 can be performed at a place different from the assembling process of the lighting unit 55, and the production schedule can be afforded.

Further, the light distribution characteristics can be easily adjusted by mounting the light shielding plate 71 which shields the light beam emitted from the mercury lamp L on the glove frame 62. That is, in the state where the light shielding plate 71 is not used, as shown in FIG.
Since the light is also emitted to the rear side of the lighting fixture (the utility pole 78 side), when this lighting fixture is installed in the vicinity of the private house 81, the light of the mercury lamp L is at night depending on the installation location.
Although there may be complaints that it ditches into 82 and is dazzling, according to this embodiment, even after the lighting fixture is once installed, the light shielding plate 71 can be easily attached to the glove frame 62 of the glove unit 61 as a countermeasure. As shown in FIG. 5, the light-shielding portion 72 of the light-shielding plate 71 blocks light rays to the rear side that enter the window 82 of the private house 81, and glare can be easily eliminated.

When it is necessary to block the light rays from the front side of the luminaire, instead of the shading plate 71 attached to the rear side of the inner surface of the globe 63, or together with the shading plate 71,
By attaching the light blocking plate 71 to the front side (the hinge 35 side) of the inner surface of the globe 63, the light rays on the front side can be blocked and the glare on the front side can be easily eliminated.

[0027]

According to the luminaire of the present invention, the lamp socket, the lighting device, the terminal block, and the wiring for connecting them to each other are integrally mounted on the mounting substrate, and the mounting substrate is mounted on the main body of the luminaire. Since it is not necessary to directly attach each part to the fixture body, the assembly work of the lighting fixture can be facilitated. In addition, the lighting inspection can be easily performed without attaching the mounting board to the main body of the fixture in a state where the lamp socket, the lighting device, the terminal block, and the wiring connecting these to each other are mounted on the mounting board.
