Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a lighting device mainly used for store lighting.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, when a plurality of lighting fixtures are installed in series on a ceiling surface in store lighting, etc., a cover is attached between the end portions to improve the appearance.

However, conventional covers only address the problem of appearance, and are not effective as decorations.

This invention was created with these points in mind.
In addition to connecting the lighting fixtures, it also supports the lighting fixtures and provides a good appearance.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a connector integrally formed from a metal plate, and this connector 1 can be used as shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 2, wide connecting portions 3 are provided at both ends of the elongated base plate portion 2, and connecting holes 4 are bored in the connecting portions 3.

Further, a through hole 5 is bored in the longitudinal center of the base plate 2, and a nut 6 is fixed to the base plate 2 on the upper surface of the through hole 5 by welding or the like to form a support portion 7. .

Note that edge pieces 8 are bent and formed on both upper sides of the substrate portion 2.

In this case, the connector 1 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 as well as FIGS. Connector 1
The substrate portion 2 is bent in three stages so as to form a right angle as a whole.

The connector 1 is not limited to a straight line or a right angle, but may be bent at an appropriate angle, curved in an arc, or the like.

Next, in FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 11 denotes a cover integrally formed of synthetic resin or the like;
has a bellows-shaped body 12 that is extendable and bendable, and engagement pieces 13 are provided protruding from both sides of openings at both ends of the body 12.

Further, an insertion hole 14 is formed in the upper central portion of the body portion 12 in the longitudinal direction.

The cover 11 is fitted on the outside of the connector 1.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a lighting device such as an elongated fluorescent lamp device, and this lighting device 21 has recesses 23 formed on the upper surface of the end frame 22 at both ends, and mounting holes 24 are bored in the four parts 23. .

Reference numeral 31 denotes a rod-shaped hanging tool that is superimposed on the ceiling surface, and the lower end of this hanging tool 31 has an eagle section 32 that is screwed into the nut 6.
is formed.

When a plurality of lighting fixtures 21 are installed linearly on a ceiling surface, the connecting tool 1 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is used, and the hanging tool 31 is arranged as shown in FIG. 7, Hanging tool 31
The lower end of the cover 11 is inserted through the insertion hole 14, the threaded portion 32 is screwed onto the nut 6 of the connector 1 in the cover 11, and the connector 1 is suspended together with the cover 11 by the hanging tool 31.

Further, the lighting fixture 21 is disposed between the pair of connectors 1 having the covers 11, and is fixed by screwing the screw from the connecting hole 4 in the connecting part 3 of the connector 1 into the mounting hole 24 at the end of the lighting fixture 21. , the lighting fixture 21 is fixed between the pair of connectors 1.

Furthermore, the retaining piece 13 at the end of the cover 11 is attached to the lighting fixture 21.
It is inserted and fitted into the inner side of the end frame 22 of.

In this way, the pair of lighting fixtures 21 are integrally connected to the connecting portions 3 at both ends of the connector 1, and each lighting fixture 21 is connected in sequence.

Note that the lighting fixtures 21 at both ends are directly suspended by hanging tools 31.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 7, the lighting fixtures 21 can be installed in a straight line with the cover 11 interposed between each lighting fixture 21.

In addition, when a plurality of lighting fixtures 21 are installed in a ring shape on a ceiling surface, the connecting tool 1 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 is used, and the hanging tool 31 is arranged as shown in FIG. Each hanging device 3
1, and attach the lighting fixtures 21 between each connector 1. When connecting the lighting fixtures 21 in a straight line as described above, the number of the lighting fixtures 21 is the number of the hanging fixtures 31. In addition, when the lighting fixtures 21 are connected in a ring, the number of hanging fixtures 31 may be the number of lighting fixtures 21 plus one.

In addition, in the above embodiments, a linear type and a right-angled type of connector 1 are shown, but the connector 1 may be bent at any angle from a straight line or curved into a curved shape. By using these, the lighting fixtures 21 can be arranged in a predetermined shape.

Furthermore, by forming the cover 11 to have the same diameter and the same shape as the end portion of the lighting fixture 21, and making them approximately the same thickness, the cover 11 can be constructed as a series of pieces.
The shape of the intermediate portion can be formed into a desired shape.

According to the present invention, it is possible to integrally connect and connect the lighting fixtures with each other using the connector, and to support the lighting fixtures, and furthermore, it is possible to easily and accurately obtain a predetermined interval between the lighting fixtures using the connector. This makes it easy to arrange lighting fixtures at pre-designed intervals.Furthermore, since the lighting fixtures are fixed to each other, each lighting fixture does not move individually and does not sway due to vibrations. This reduces the risk of falling due to earthquakes, etc.

In addition, the bellows-shaped cover that surrounds the coupling device covers all the coupling and hanging mechanisms, giving it a good appearance. By selecting a desired shape such as a straight line, a bent shape, or a curved shape, a desired continuous configuration can be easily obtained.
