  • the invention relates to a luminaire device with an accumulator.
  • the sets are often equipped with at least one electric lighting device in the form of an electric candle and a charging station.
  • the electric candles have at least one electrically operated light source, which is usually integrated into the plug body.
  • the candle body may be formed of real wax or other translucent material. The integrated into the candle body illuminates mostly the candle body from the inside.
  • the lighting devices in sets of the aforementioned type may have different configurations.
  • Preferred embodiments are electric candles such as tealights, standard candles or even ball candles, glass ornaments with lights and provided with lights Christmas tree decorations. Due to the rapid consumption of batteries, the prior art has evolved to develop rechargeable electrical lighting fixtures that incorporate built-in nickel metal hydride batteries and can be charged via a charging station. Thus, charging stations for battery-equipped electrical lighting devices are used that do not receive their electrical energy directly from the mains.
  • the luminosity, in particular of the electric candles is relatively low, which is disadvantageous, in particular, in dark seasons, in which electric candles, which are in particular standing outdoors, generally have to be temporarily available for a longer time.
  • the nickel metal hydride accumulators used in the electric candles have too low energy densities and final voltages in order to significantly increase the luminosity or to extend the luminous duration.
  • the lighting device has an extended light duration and increased luminosity.
  • the invention provides that the luminaire device has an accumulator in the form of a lithium-ion accumulator.
  • the invention is based on the idea that the available by the lithium-ion battery higher energy density and rated voltage can be used specifically to extend the use, for example, of electric candles noticeably.
  • a lithium-ion battery supplies a rated voltage from 3.2 volts, which is thus higher than the nominal voltage conventionally used in electric candles. Since, in particular, electric candles in the form of tealights are frequently subjected to prolonged use, with the result that regular recharging of the candle is necessary, it is also advantageous that the set according to the invention in addition to lighting devices also has a corresponding charging station.
  • Another advantage of the invention is also that the cycle life of a lithium-ion secondary battery is increased.
  • an arrangement of tealights is often chosen that encompasses several tealights, as can be found, for example, on tombs.
  • the charging station has a plurality of charging units, wherein in each case a charging unit, an electrical lighting device can be assigned.
  • the charging unit has a charging contact, which is preferably arranged centrally in the charging unit.
  • the charging station is composed of modules, wherein each module has at least one charging unit and the modules are detachably joined together. This also provides the opportunity to offer retrofit kits for already purchased luminaire sets to expand in this way existing collections of electrical lighting devices variable. Due to the modular design of the charging station, the charging stations can also be variably expanded. Expediently, the modules are plugged together, with plug contacts preferably being considered here as connecting elements.
  • the known from the prior art electric candles have a variety of configurations.
  • the diameters of the plug bodies vary.
  • the distance between two charging contacts is a maximum of 30 cm, preferably a maximum of 20 cm, particularly preferably a maximum of 10 cm. This ensures that as well electric candles whose plug bodies have a large diameter, in addition to electric candles whose candle body have smaller diameter, can be charged.
  • This also serves that preferably at least two modules differ in their dimensions from each other. The fact that the dimensions of modules are made variable, the possibility is created to arrange on a charging station electric candles with different diameters next to each other.
  • the candle body of an electric candle is made of wax.
  • a practicable variant of the invention therefore provides that the electrical lighting device is provided with a wax cup, ie. with a shell of wax.
