Abstract
Description
- The subject of the present invention is a suspended lighting apparatus.
- As is known, various types of lighting apparatus exist that can be suspended from a wall or a ceiling, both for domestic use and for use in other environments.
- US-A-4,118,760 discloses a ceiling lamp comprising an adjustable hanger for electric lights on which one or a plurality of electric lamps is slidably positionable along an elongated housing having non-electrified rails.
US-A-5,440,469 which is the closest prior art describes a low voltage track lighting fixture comprising a cylindrical member engaged to a pair of plugs, each plug supporting a vertically oriented electrified rod. Slidably positioned on the rods are a second pair of plug elements engaged to a lamp holding element. - There also exist types of apparatus that can be adjusted in their extension in the vertical direction, for example by means of complex pantograph systems.
- Even though the apparatus of the type described above is able to perform the function for which it is designed, there is still room for a number of interesting and important improvements.
- A purpose of the present invention is therefore to provide a suspended lighting apparatus in which the spotlight can be oriented as desired so that it can be appropriately positioned according to the particular lighting requirements.
- Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a suspended lighting apparatus which can be installed in a simple and economical way, i.e., without having to resort to costly materials or complex technologies.
- These and other purposes are achieved by a suspended lighting apparatus, according to Claim 1, to which the reader is referred for reasons of brevity.
- Further characteristics of the present invention are moreover defined in the subsequent claims.
- Further purposes and advantages of the present invention will emerge clearly from the ensuing description and from the annexed drawings, which are provided purely to furnish explanatory and non-limiting examples, and in which:
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a suspended lighting apparatus according to the present invention;
- Figure 2 is a view of the lighting apparatus of Figure 1 in one first possible configuration of use;
- Figure 3 is a view of the lighting apparatus of Figure 1 in one second possible configuration of use;
- Figure 4 is a view of the lighting apparatus of Figure 1 in one third possible configuration of use; and
- Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view of a detail of the articulated-joint system of the apparatus illustrated in the previous figures.
- With particular reference to the aforementioned figures, the suspended lighting apparatus according to the invention is designated, as a whole, by the
reference number 10. - The suspended
lighting apparatus 10 comprises aspotlight 11 provided with alight source 12, and a plurality ofslender suspension elements - The
steel cables cross member 16, and thespotlight 11 is, in turn, suspended from afork 15, shaped like an upturned U, which is connected to thecross member 16 in such a way that it can turn. - The
lighting apparatus 10 is provided with a furtherslender suspension element 17 which, in a substantially central position, accompanies theelectric lead 18 of theapparatus 10 so as to keep it tensioned. - In particular, the
electric lead 18 is connected to theslender suspension element 17 by means ofclamps 26. - According to alternative embodiments of the invention, the
slender suspension elements - Figure 5 illustrates the hooking system for the
leads balls 27 inserted into recesses orholes 28. - The
lighting apparatus 10 also has a threadedelement 19 which is slotted in thecross member 16 to connect it to thefork 15 in such a way that it is free to turn. - In addition, the
fork 15 is provided with asafety locking element 20, for example a grub screw, which engages with the threadedelement 19, the purpose of the arrangement being to configure an articulatedjoint 23. - Also provided is a
grub screw 25, which makes it possible to block reciprocal rotation of the threadedelement 19 and thecross member 16. - The
spotlight 11 of thelighting apparatus 10 can also turn with respect to thefork 15 thanks to twohinges 21 set on the sides of thespotlight 11 itself. - The
lighting apparatus 10 is also provided with adevice 22 for fast height-adjustment of the position of the apparatus, by adjusting the vertical development of thecables - Operation of the lighting apparatus according to the invention is illustrated in what follows.
- The height from the floor of the apparatus can be adjusted by means of the
device 22, by releasing thesteel cables - In addition, the
fork 15 can be made to rotate about a substantially vertical axis, by means of the articulatedjoint 23, consequently causing also thespotlight 11 with itslight source 12 to rotate. - Finally, the
spotlight 11 can be made to rotate about a substantially horizontal axis, by means of thehinges 21. - The above movements reveal the particular and advantageous flexibility of use guaranteed by the present invention.
- It should be noted that the inventive ideas presented herein may of course be applied also to spotlights having a shape that is different from the one illustrated and represented by way of example.
- The characteristics, as well as the advantages, of the suspended lighting apparatus according to the present invention emerge clearly from the foregoing description.
