Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen an einer Wand oder Decke eines Raumes zu befestigenden Raumsensor sowie einen dazugehörigen Montageadapter, mittels dem der Sensor in einer bestimmten Weise montiert werden kann.The present invention relates to a wall or ceiling of a room fastening room sensor and an associated mounting adapter, using the the sensor can be mounted in a certain way.

Bei der Steuerung von Beleuchtungssystemen oder anderen Geräten der Hausleittechnik finden oftmals Raumsensoren Verwendung, mittels denen ein bestimmtes Ereignis festgestellt werden kann, um ein automatisches Betreiben von Lampen oder anderen Geräten zu ermöglichen. Beispielsweise dienen Präsenz- oder Anwesenheitssensoren dazu, das Licht in einem Raum automatisch einzuschalten, wenn eine Person diesen Raum betritt. Helligkeitssensoren wiederum werden z.B. dazu verwendet, die Helligkeit von Lampen derart an die Umgebungshelligkeit anzupassen, daß in einem Arbeitsbereich eine konstante Gesamthelligkeit vorliegt.When controlling lighting systems or other devices Home automation systems are often used as room sensors, by means of which a certain event can be determined to be an automatic operation of Allow lamps or other devices. For example, presence or Presence sensors to automatically switch on the light in a room, when a person enters this room. Brightness sensors in turn are e.g. used to adjust the brightness of lamps to the ambient brightness to adapt that there is a constant overall brightness in a work area.

Das Gehäuse eines Raumsensors ist üblicherweise derart gestaltet, daß der Sensor auf eine bestimmte Weise an der Wand oder Decke eines Raumes befestigt werden kann. Beispielsweise sind pilzartig ausgebildete Sensoren bekannt, die ein zylinderförmiges Basisgehäuse sowie ein vor dem Basisgehäuse angeordnetes kuppelförmiges Kopfteil aufweisen. Das Basisgehäuse ist dabei derart bemessen, daß es in einer üblichen Installationsdose - beispielsweise in einer Eurodose - montiert werden kann.The housing of a room sensor is usually designed such that the sensor is on a certain way can be attached to the wall or ceiling of a room. For example, mushroom-shaped sensors are known which have a cylindrical shape Base housing and a dome-shaped head part arranged in front of the base housing exhibit. The base housing is dimensioned such that it is in a usual Installation box - for example in a Euro box - can be mounted.

Allerdings sind solche Installationsdosen nicht immer auch an den Stellen vorhanden, an denen ein Sensor tatsächlich angeordnet werden soll. Für diesen Fall ist dann eine andere Montageart notwendig, bei der der Sensor beispielsweise außerhalb der Wand oder Decke angeordnet wird. Hierfür wäre allerdings ein Neugestaltung des Sensorgehäuses notwendig, die mit nicht zu vernachlässigenden Kosten verbunden ist.However, such installation boxes are not always available in the places where a sensor should actually be placed. In this case there is one another type of installation necessary, for example, where the sensor is outside the wall or ceiling is arranged. However, this would require a redesign of the Sensor housing necessary, which is associated with non-negligible costs is.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, auf einfache und kostengünstige Weise die Möglichkeit zu eröffnen, einen Sensor in verschiedenen Montageweisen an der Wand oder Decke eines Raumes zu befestigen.The present invention is therefore based on the task of simple and cost-effective way to open up a sensor in different Attach mounting methods to the wall or ceiling of a room.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Raumsensor gemäß den Merkmalen der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst. This task is performed by a room sensor according to the characteristics of the independent claims solved.

Gemäß einem ersten Aspekt der Erfindung ist zu dem Sensor ein Aufputz-Montageadapter vorgesehen, welcher den Abstand zwischen dem Randbereich des Kopfteils des Sensors und der Wand oder Decke eines Raumes ausfüllt. Gemäß einem zweiten Aspekt der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Unterputz-Montageadapter vorgesehen, welcher zum Einsetzen in eine Öffnung einer Wand oder Decke eines Raumes bestimmt ist, wobei der Unterputz-Montageadapter den Abstand zwischen dem Öffnungsrand der Wand- bzw. Deckenöffnung und dem Kopfteil des Raumsensors ausfüllt.According to a first aspect of the invention, there is a surface mounting adapter for the sensor provided which is the distance between the edge region of the Fills the head part of the sensor and the wall or ceiling of a room. According to A second aspect of the present invention is a flush mounting adapter provided which for insertion into an opening in a wall or ceiling of a Space is determined, the flush-mounting adapter the distance between the opening edge of the wall or ceiling opening and the head part of the Fills the room sensor.

Erfindungsgemäß ist es somit nicht mehr notwendig, für die unterschiedlichen Montageweisen jeweils eigene Gehäuse für den Sensor bereitzustellen. Statt dessen wird aus einem immer gleichbleibenden Sensorgehäuse und einem Montageadapter eine Kombination gebildet, die nunmehr die Befestigung auf eine andere Art und Weise ermöglicht.According to the invention, it is therefore no longer necessary for the different Installation ways to provide separate housings for the sensor. Instead is made up of a constant sensor housing and a mounting adapter formed a combination, which is now the attachment in a different way and Way.

Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Beispielsweise kann der Aufputz-Montageadapter ringförmig ausgestaltet sein und im zusammengesetzten Zustand das Basisgehäuse des Sensors formschlüssig umgeben. Der Unterputz-Montageadapter ist vorzugsweise derart ausgestaltet, daß er den Abstand zwischen dem Öffnungsrand der Wand- bzw. Deckenöffnung und einem aktiven Bereich des Kopfteils - bei dem es sich im Falle eines Anwesenheitssensors beispielsweise um eine Linsenanordnung handelt - ausfüllt.For example, the surface mounting adapter can be designed in a ring and assembled state, the base housing of the sensor is positively surrounded. The flush mounting adapter is preferably designed such that it Distance between the opening edge of the wall or ceiling opening and one active area of the head part - which is in the case of a presence sensor for example, a lens arrangement - fills.

Der in Figur 1 dargestellte pilzartig ausgebildete Raumsensor 1 besteht aus einem Basisgehäuse 4 sowie einem an der Vorderseite des Basisgehäuses 4 angeordneten kegel- oder kalottenförmigen Kopfteil 2. Das Basisgehäuse 4 besitzt eine achteckige Form und ist für die Befestigung innerhalb einer Installationsdose ausgebildet, wie später noch erläutert wird.The mushroom-like room sensor 1 shown in FIG. 1 consists of a Base housing 4 and one arranged on the front of the base housing 4 conical or dome-shaped head part 2. The base housing 4 has an octagonal Form and is designed for attachment within an installation box, such as will be explained later.

Bei dem hier dargestellten Raumsensor 1 handelt es sich um einen Bewegungs- bzw. Anwesenheitssensor. Innerhalb des Basisgehäuses 4 sind dementsprechend ein - nicht dargestelltes - infrarot-empfindliches Sensorelement sowie eine dazugehörige Auswerteelektronik angeordnet. Das Kopfteil 2 weist eine Linsenanordnung 3 aus einem infrarot-transparenten Material, wie z.B. Kunststoff auf, die dazu dient, den von dem Sensor 1 erfaßten Detektionsbereich auf das in dem Gehäuse 4 befindliche Sensorelement abzubilden. Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich jedoch nicht nur auf derartige passive infrarot-empfindliche Sensoren (sog. PIR-Sensoren) sondern auf alle Sensortypen, beispielsweise anstelle des hier dargestellten Bewegungs- oder Präsenzsensors auch auf Helligkeitssensoren oder dgl.The room sensor 1 shown here is a movement or Presence sensor. Accordingly, a - not within the base housing 4 shown - infrared-sensitive sensor element and an associated Evaluation electronics arranged. The head part 2 has a lens arrangement 3 an infrared transparent material, e.g. Plastic that serves the detection area detected by the sensor 1 to that located in the housing 4 Map sensor element. However, the present invention is not only related on such passive infrared sensitive sensors (so-called PIR sensors) but on all sensor types, for example instead of the movement or shown here Presence sensor also on brightness sensors or the like.

Um die Installationsmöglichkeiten für den in Fig. 1 dargestellten Raumsensor 1 zu erweitern, ist zunächst ein Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 vorgesehen, dessen Ober- und Unterseite in den Figuren 2a und 2b dargestellt ist. Dieser ringförmige Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 weist eine kegelstumpfförmige Mantelfläche 7 auf, die an ihrer Oberkante von einer eine Öffnung 9 aufweisenden ringförmigen Auflagefläche 8 begrenzt ist. Die Form der Öffnung 9 entspricht dabei dem Querschnitt des achteckigen Basisgehäuses 4, so daß der Raumsensor 1 von der Oberseite her auf den Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 aufgeschoben werden kann, wobei dieser dann das Basisgehäuse 4 formschlüssig umfaßt. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine Gesamtstruktur, wie sie in Figur 3 dargestellt ist. To the installation options for the room sensor 1 shown in Fig. 1 expand, a surface mounting adapter 6 is initially provided, the top and Bottom is shown in Figures 2a and 2b. This ring-shaped surface mounting adapter 6 has a truncated cone-shaped lateral surface 7, which on its Top edge of an annular support surface 8 having an opening 9 is limited. The shape of the opening 9 corresponds to the cross section of the octagonal base housing 4, so that the room sensor 1 from the top to the Surface mounting adapter 6 can be pushed, this then Base housing 4 includes a form fit. This creates an overall structure as shown in Figure 3.

Im zusammengesetzten Zustand bildet die kegelstumpfförmige Außenseite 7 des Aufputz-Montageadapters 6 gemeinsam mit dem kalottenförmigen Kopfteil 2 das Gehäuse der aus dem Sensor 1 und dem Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 gebildeten Kombination. Das Basisgehäuse 4 ist dabei innerhalb des ringförmigen Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 angeordnet, so daß die auf diese Weise gebildete Kombination in einer Aufputzmontage an der Wand oder Decke eines Raums befestigt werden kann. An dem Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 und dem Basisgehäuse 4 können - nicht dargestellte - Verrastelemente vorgesehen sein, die einen festen Zusammenhalt zwischen dem Sensor 1 und dem Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 ermöglichen.In the assembled state, the frustoconical outside 7 of the Surface mounting adapter 6 together with the dome-shaped head part 2 Housing formed from the sensor 1 and the surface mounting adapter 6 Combination. The base housing 4 is inside the ring-shaped surface mounting adapter 6 arranged so that the combination thus formed in surface mounting can be attached to the wall or ceiling of a room. On the surface mounting adapter 6 and the base housing 4 can - not shown - latching elements are provided, which have a solid cohesion enable between the sensor 1 and the surface mounting adapter 6.

Die Figuren 4a und 4b zeigen einen erfindungsgemäßen Unterputz-Montageadapter 10, der eine sogenannte Unterputzmontage bzw. den Deckeneinbau des Sensors 1 ermöglicht. Dieser Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 ist ebenfalls ringförmig ausgebildet und besitzt eine zylinderförmige Seitenwand 11, die an ihrer Oberseite von einer ringförmigen Oberfläche 12 mit einer Kreisöffnung 13 begrenzt ist. Eine Verbindung zwischen dem Sensor 1 und diesem Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 erfolgt dadurch, daß der Sensor 1 von der Unterseite her in den ringförmigen Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 eingesetzt wird. Hierdurch ergibt sich die in Figur 5 dargestellte Konfiguration. Die Kreisöffnung 13 der ringförmigen Oberseite 12 ist dabei derart bemessen, daß lediglich die Linsenanordnung 3 als aktiver Bereich des kalottenförmigen Kopfteils 2 hindurchragt.Figures 4a and 4b show a flush mounting adapter according to the invention 10, the so-called flush mounting or the ceiling installation of the sensor 1 allows. This flush mounting adapter 10 is also annular and has a cylindrical side wall 11 which on its upper side by a annular surface 12 is delimited with a circular opening 13. A connection between the sensor 1 and this flush mounting adapter 10 that the sensor 1 from the bottom in the annular flush mounting adapter 10 is used. This results in the one shown in FIG. 5 Configuration. The circular opening 13 of the annular top 12 is such dimensioned that only the lens assembly 3 as the active area of the dome-shaped head part 2 protrudes.

Um eine Befestigung des Sensors 1 in diesem Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 zu ermöglichen, ist die zylinderförmige Seitenwand 11 an mehreren Stellen 14 unterbrochen, wobei innerhalb dieser Freiräume 14 Rastnasen 15 angeordnet sind, die im eingesetzten Zustand des Sensors 1 mit dem Kopfteil 2 verrasten. An der Seitenwand 11 des Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 sind ferner zwei Ausnehmungen 16 vorgesehen, die zur Halterung von Befestigungsfedern 17 dienen. Mit Hilfe dieser Befestigungsfedern 17 wird die aus dem Sensor 1 und dem Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 gebildete Kombination an der Wand oder Decke befestigt, wie später erläutert wird.To fix the sensor 1 in this flush mounting adapter 10 enable, the cylindrical side wall 11 is 14 at several locations interrupted, 14 locking lugs 15 being arranged within these free spaces, which engage with the head part 2 when the sensor 1 is in use. At the Side wall 11 of the flush-mounting adapter 10 are also two recesses 16 provided that serve to hold mounting springs 17. With the help of this Fastening springs 17 is the sensor 1 and the flush-mounting adapter 10 formed combination attached to the wall or ceiling, such as will be explained later.

Anhand der Figuren 6a-8b sollen nunmehr die verschiedenen Montagemöglichkeiten für den Raumsensor bzw. die durch den Sensor und die Montageadapter gebildeten Kombinationen erläutert werden.The various mounting options are now to be explained using FIGS. 6a-8b for the room sensor or those formed by the sensor and the mounting adapter Combinations are explained.

Die Figuren 6a und 6b zeigen dabei zunächst den allein - also ohne Montageadapter - an einer Decke 18 eines Raumes befestigten Sensor 1. Die Montage erfolgt hier mit Hilfe einer in der Decke 18 angeordneten Installationsdose 19 - beispielsweise handelt es sich hierbei um eine Eurodose - in die das Basisgehäuse 4 eingesetzt und befestigt werden kann. Wie der Darstellung zu entnehmen ist, liegt dabei das kalottenförmige Kopfteil 2 des Sensors 1 an der Unterseite der Decke 18 an. Die Stromversorgungs- und Datenleitung 5 des Sensors 1 erstreckt sich von der Installationsdose 19 durch die Decke 18.FIGS. 6a and 6b initially show that alone - that is to say without a mounting adapter - sensor 1 attached to a ceiling 18 of a room With the help of an installation box 19 arranged in the ceiling 18 - for example it is a Eurodose - in which the base housing 4 is inserted and can be attached. As can be seen from the illustration, this is because dome-shaped head part 2 of the sensor 1 on the underside of the ceiling 18. The Power supply and data line 5 of the sensor 1 extends from the Installation box 19 through the ceiling 18.

Die Figuren 7a und 7b zeigen die Möglichkeit, den Sensor 1 mittels einer Aufputzmontage an einer Decke 18 eines Raumes zu befestigen, also an deren Außen- bzw. Unterseite. Diese Montageweise ist beispielsweise dann notwendig, wenn in der Decke 18 keine Installationsdose vorhanden ist.FIGS. 7a and 7b show the possibility of using a sensor 1 To be surface-mounted on a ceiling 18 of a room, that is, on the ceiling Outside or bottom. This method of assembly is necessary, for example, if there is no installation box in the ceiling 18.

Der Sensor 1 wird hierzu in der oben beschriebenen Weise mit dem Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 verbunden. Die aus dem Sensor 1 und dem Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 gebildete Kombination kann dann an der Decke mittels (nicht dargestellter) Schrauben befestigt werden, wobei das Gehäuse 4 des Sensors 1 nun vollständig innerhalb des Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 angeordnet ist, so daß dieser den Abstand zwischen dem Randbereich des Kopfteils 2 und der Decke 18 ausfüllt. Die ringförmige Auflagefläche 8 des Aufputz-Montageadapters 6 bildet dabei die Auflagefläche für das Kopfteil 2, die kegelstumpfförmige Seitenfläche 7 des Aufputz-Montageadapters 6 bildet gemeinsam mit der Abdeckung 2 das Gesamtgehäuse der Sensor-Montageadapter-Kombination.The sensor 1 is for this purpose in the manner described above with the surface mounting adapter 6 connected. The sensor 1 and the surface mounting adapter 6 combination formed can then on the ceiling using (not shown) screws are attached, the housing 4 of the sensor 1 now is completely arranged within the surface mounting adapter 6, so that this fills the distance between the edge region of the head part 2 and the ceiling 18. The annular support surface 8 of the surface mounting adapter 6 forms the Support surface for the head part 2, the frustoconical side surface 7 of the Surface mounting adapter 6 forms together with the cover 2 Complete housing of the sensor mounting adapter combination.

Die Höhe der Seitenwand 7 des Aufputz-Montageadapters 6 ist mindestens gleich hoch - vorzugsweise jedoch etwas höher - wie das Basisgehäuse 4. Dementsprechend steht das Gehäuse 4 gegenüber dem Aufputz-Montageadapter 6 nicht hervor, so daß die gesamte Kombination bündig an der Unterseite der Decke 18 befestigt werden kann. Die Anschlußleitung 5 für den Sensor 1 erstreckt sich dabei durch eine kleine innerhalb der Decke 18 befindliche Öffnung, eine Installationsdose ist zur Montage des Sensors 1 nicht notwendig.The height of the side wall 7 of the surface mounting adapter 6 is at least the same high - but preferably a little higher - like the base housing 4. Accordingly the housing 4 does not protrude from the surface mounting adapter 6, so that the entire combination can be attached flush to the underside of the ceiling 18 can. The connecting line 5 for the sensor 1 extends through a small one opening located in the ceiling 18, an installation box is for mounting of sensor 1 is not necessary.

Die Figuren 8a und b zeigen schließlich die Unterputz- oder Deckeneinbaumontage der aus dem Sensor 1 und dem Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 gebildeten Kombination, die sich insbesondere für eine Montage in dünnen abgehängten Raumdecken 19 anbietet. Hierbei wird die aus dem Sensor 1 und dem Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 gebildete Kombination in eine in der Raumdecke 19 befindliche Öffnung eingesetzt, so daß die ringförmige Oberseite 12 des Unterputz-Montageadapters 10 an der Unterseite der Raumdecke 19 anliegt. Hierbei füllt der Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 den Abstand zwischen dem Öffnungsrand der Deckenöffnung und der Linsenanordnung 3 des Kopfteils 2 aus, die Linsenanordnung 3 ragt nur geringfügig über die Unterseite der Decke 19 hervor.Figures 8a and b finally show the flush or ceiling installation that formed from the sensor 1 and the flush mounting adapter 10 Combination that is particularly suitable for mounting in thin suspended Offers ceiling 19. This is the sensor 1 and the flush-mounting adapter 10 formed combination in a located in the ceiling 19 Opening used so that the annular top 12 of the flush mounting adapter 10 bears against the underside of the ceiling 19. Here, the Flush mounting adapter 10 the distance between the opening edge of the Ceiling opening and the lens assembly 3 of the head part 2, the Lens arrangement 3 protrudes only slightly beyond the underside of the ceiling 19.

Eine Befestigung der aus dem Sensor 1 und dem Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 gebildeten Kombination erfolgt durch die Befestigungsfedern 17, die derart vorgespannt sind, daß sie den Unterputz-Montageadapter 10 nach oben drücken. Da durch die Außenkanten der ringförmigen Oberseite 12 des Adapters 10 allerdings eine weitere Aufwärtsbewegung verhindert wird, wird hierdurch eine ausreichende Befestigung des Unterputz-Montageadapters 10 mit dem darin angeordneten Sensor 1 ermöglicht. Die Anschlußleitung 5 des Sensors 1 verläuft in dem oberhalb der abgehängten Raumdecke 17 befindlichen Freiraum.A fastening of the sensor 1 and the flush mounting adapter 10 Combination formed by the mounting springs 17, which are are biased that they push the flush mounting adapter 10 upwards. There through the outer edges of the annular top 12 of the adapter 10, however a further upward movement is prevented, this is sufficient Fastening of the flush mounting adapter 10 with the sensor 1 arranged therein allows. The connecting line 5 of the sensor 1 runs in the above the suspended ceiling 17 located free space.

Die dargestellten Beispiele verdeutlichen, daß mit Hilfe der beiden erfindungsgemäßen Montageadapter auf einfache Weise die Montagemöglichkeiten für einen einzigen Sensor vergrößert werden können. Hierzu ist keine aufwendige und kostenintensive Neugestaltung des Sensorgehäuses notwendig, vielmehr ist es ausreichend, einen einfach und kostengünstig herzustellenden Adapter zu verwenden.The examples shown illustrate that with the help of the two Mounting adapter according to the invention the mounting options in a simple manner can be enlarged for a single sensor. This is not a complex one and costly redesign of the sensor housing is necessary, rather it is sufficient to use an adapter that is simple and inexpensive to manufacture.
