Description

Technical field

The device relates to equipment elements of lighting systems designed to illuminate streets and roads, squares, parking lots.

State of the art

According to general requirements, light emitting diode modules (LED modules) can have a lamp control gear consisting of one or several devices placed in a special shell and electrically connected between the industrial network and the LED module, which serve to convert the mains voltage ( IEC 61347 Clause 3.1).

The most vulnerable element in LED illuminators is a power source (IP, driver), which is included in the control device located outside the LED module. If the control device is installed high above the ground (road, street lights), then replacing the IP is a very expensive operation, requiring the use of special auto-lifting equipment and high-altitude work. In this regard, it is necessary to increase the reliability of the IP, and in case of failure, the process of replacing it should be simple and quick. Usually directly connected to the IP are the LED blocks, control apparatus elements, and mains voltage wires, most often connected at the connectors corresponding to the degree of protection from P65 to IP68.

A lighting device is known, comprising an LED module configured to be mounted on an arm of a lighting support and a control device mounted in an aluminum shell mounted on the inner surface of the housing cover of the LED module and connected between the industrial network and the LED module (RU 2552100 C1, IPC F21S 8/00, published on 06/10/2015).

A lighting device is known that contains a LED module made of aluminum profile, made with the possibility of fixing the lighting support bracket and a control device that is mounted in a metal sheath, is mounted in the compartment of the LED module housing and is electrically connected between the industrial network and the LED module (RU 2610402 C1, IPC F21V 29/83, published 02/09/2016).

The disadvantage of these analogues is the placement of the control device in the housing of the lighting device. Replacement of the control device is associated with high complexity and the need to attract special vehicles.

In general, the installation of a control device, including a power source, should provide the possibility of reliable fixation and connection to the network; easy installation and removal of elements to be replaced; reliable fastening of removable parts, eliminating the possibility of their spontaneous weakening and loss during operation.

The technical result of the claimed solution is to simplify the design of the holder body and simplify the maintenance of the lighting device, due to the possibility of replacing the control device, including the power source, without dismantling the LED module and the supporting elements of the lighting support.

Brief Description of Utility Model

A utility model can be characterized by the following set of features:

The housing of the holder of the LED module for outdoor lighting, including:

The means of fastening the holder body to the support of the lighting column is made in the form of a U-shaped bracket fixed in the cavity of a metal pipe with the possibility of covering the supporting element of the lighting column and fixing it with locking screws.

The dimensions of the cutout in the metal pipe should provide the possibility of free extraction of the sealed enclosure of the power source, and the cover should reliably cover the housing cavity from atmospheric effects, for this it is equipped with a silicone gasket located around the perimeter of the cover.

For reliable positioning, the sealed casing of the power source is equipped with a flange made with the possibility of its fixation on two pins, mounted on the inner surface of the cavity of the metal pipe, opposite the cover. On the inside, the surface of the lid is provided with an elastic element excluding the vertical displacement of the shell of the power source.

The claimed solution is illustrated by the following drawings:

Detailed description of utility model

As the housing 3 of the holder of the power source 10 used a standard pipe of rectangular cross section. The choice of pipe size depends on the power of the LED module, on the shape and dimensions of the shell of the power source 10. A rectangular cutout is made on the upper surface of the housing 3, slightly larger than the dimensions of the shell of the power source 10. The cover 7 has a movable connection 8 and a threaded detachable connection 9 formed a thumbscrew with a threaded hole in the housing 3.

On the inner surface of the housing 3, opposite the rectangular cutout, two pins 12 are fixed on which flange holes of the shell of the power source 10 are positioned, protecting it from longitudinal and transverse displacement.

On the inner surface of the lid 7, an elastic element 13 made of silicone is glued having a height such that when the shell of the power supply 10 is mounted on the pins 12 and the lid 7 is closed, the shell of the power supply 10 is firmly pressed to the bottom of the cavity 19 of the housing 3. Despite the absence of any - any special mounts, the shell of the power supply 10 is tightly fixed in all directions.

If it is necessary to replace the power source, the following actions are performed:

1. Unscrew the screw 9 with the wing head.

2. Open the cover 7.

3. Disconnect all power supply connectors,

4. Remove the power source 10.

5. The connectors connect to a new power source.

6. A new power source is mounted on the pins.

7. Cover 7 is closed, the screw is tightened.

All operations can be done in 2 minutes.

To control the radiation of the LED module on the cover 7, a modem with a controller can be installed, which is connected to the power source using a connector.
