Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a hanging lighting fixture used for decoration, etc., and particularly to a hanging lighting fixture for decoration that is composed of a plurality of lighting units.

When installing a conventional decorative hanging lighting fixture, a double work is required to support the fixture using a hanging device or the like, and then to perform electrical wiring. The work is complicated, such as fixing with screws, and is a very time-consuming work, especially for lighting fixtures that have multiple lighting units. Therefore, there is an inconvenience that changing the combination of the plurality of lighting units requires a great deal of effort.

Furthermore, each lighting unit had only a single light bulb, making it difficult to vary the illumination light.

In view of the above-mentioned conventional inconveniences, this invention allows the latching work to also serve as the electrical wiring work, and the work is very simple.In addition, it is easy to change combinations such as connections, and the illumination light can be easily changed. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a decorative hanging lighting fixture.

In summary, each lighting unit of the above-mentioned lighting equipment includes a hooking member made of a conductor and provided with hooks at both ends thereof, and two light bulbs,
Connect the electrode wires of the two light bulbs to each of the hooking members, and select which of the two light bulbs to light and the glass globe that covers each lighting unit and has openings at the top and bottom. The invention is characterized by comprising a means for doing so.

Examples of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway external sketch of one lighting unit of a decorative hanging lighting fixture which is an embodiment of this invention. Reference numerals 1 and 2 are both conductive hooking members, and both ends thereof are bent into a fishhook shape, and the hooking portions 1a,
1b, 2a, and 2b are formed. One electrode wire 3a of the light bulb 3 is connected to the diode 6 on the hanging member 1.
and one electrode wire 4 of the light bulb 4.
a is connected via a diode 7. The diodes 6 and 7 are connected in opposite directions and form part of a lighting switching device to be described later. The other electrode wires 3b and 4b of the two light bulbs 3 and 4 are connected to the hooking member 2.
Further, the two hanging members 1 and 2 are fixed at symmetrical positions by transparent insulating fixing members 5a and 5b without being electrically short-circuited. The latching members are spaced apart between the upper and lower fixing members 5a and 5b, and the upper opening 8a of the bell-shaped glass globe 8 is
The size is approximately equal to the outer circumference of the fixing member 5a. By passing the lighting unit from the lower opening 8b of the glass globe 8 to the upper opening 8a, the glass globe 8 is held in the widened part of the hanging members 1 and 2 of the lighting unit. . The upper light bulb 4 of the two light bulbs connected to the hanging member is connected to the upper opening 8 of the glass globe 8.
By lighting up this light bulb 4, it is possible to make the glass globe 8 shine.

FIG. 2 is an external view of a lighting fixture in which a plurality of the above-mentioned lighting units are connected and hung. Voltage is supplied to the latches 9a and 9b of the latching device 9 attached to the ceiling (approximately 12V is considered appropriate). The lighting units A, B, and C shown in FIG. 1 are connected and latched to the latching fittings 9a and 9b, and the latching portions 1a and 2a of the lighting unit A are connected to the latching fittings 9a and 9b. By being hooked, electric power is supplied to the light bulbs 3 and 4 to light them up, and a power supply voltage is also conducted to the hook portions 1b and 2b. Therefore, the hanging parts 1b, 2 of the lighting unit A
Illumination unit B, which is hooked to b by hooks 1a and 2a, lights up in the same way and conducts electricity to 1b and 2b. The same applies to lighting unit C. Further, as shown in the figure, by inserting a spacer 20 between the lighting units, the intervals between the lighting units can be set freely.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the wiring in a decorative hanging lighting fixture that is an embodiment of this invention, and FIG.
3 shows the wiring of the lighting switching device when using a DC power source, FIG. 3B shows the wiring of the lighting switching device when using an AC power source, and FIG. 3C shows the wiring of the lighting unit. . When using a DC power supply, wire it as shown in Figure 3A, and by interlocking switches 10 and 11, each
If it is in contact with 0', 11', 9a side is +, 9b
The connected diode D1 has a negative side and a positive side on the hooking member 1 of the lighting unit shown in Fig. 3C.
And D2 turns on the light bulb 3. In addition, when the switches 10 and 11 are connected to 10'' and 11'' in FIG. 3A, the 9a side becomes negative and the 9b side becomes positive, and in FIG. 3C, the latch member 2 becomes positive and the light bulb 4 lights up.

When using an AC power source, install a switch 13 on one power supply line as shown in Figure 3B, and connect two diodes 14 and 15 behind the contacts 13' and 13'' in opposite directions. However, if switch 13 is connected to 13',
In FIG. 3C, the light bulb 3 lights up and the switch 13
When connected to 13'', the light bulb 4 lights up.

The above wiring corresponds to the means for selecting lighting of this invention.

In this way, according to this invention, the hooking work also serves as the electrical wiring work, and the work is just hooking, so installation or combination can be simplified.
Changes can be made easily. In addition, spacers and the like can be freely combined, and the illumination light can be changed depending on which of the two light bulbs is turned on, so there is an advantage that the design of the lighting fixture and the image of the illumination light can be changed.
