Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Lampenfassung für zweiseitig gesockelte, jeweils zwei lampenachsparallele Sockelstifte aufweisende Leuchtstofflampen mit einem Fassungsgehäuse und darin befindlichen Kontakten sowie mit einem im Fassungskörper drehbar gelagerten Rotor, der einen Führungsschlitz zum lampenachsqueren Einführen der Lampensockelstifte aufweistThe invention relates to a lamp holder for two-sided socketed, each having two lamp pins parallel to the lamp Fluorescent lamps with a socket housing and in it located contacts and with a rotatable in the socket body mounted rotor, which has a guide slot to cross the lamp axis Introducing the lamp base pins
Im Zuge der Miniaturisierung von Leuchten werden zwangsläufig auch die Leuchtengehäuse, in denen die Lampen und Lampenfassungen untergebracht sind, enger und erschweren den Einsatz und das Auswechseln der Lampen, da diese innerhalb des Leuchtengehäuses mit den Fingern einer Hand nur äußerst mühsam zu erfassen und zu handhaben sind.In the course of miniaturization of lights are inevitable also the luminaire housing in which the lamps and lamp holders are housed, tighter and more difficult to use and the replacement of the lamps, as these are inside the lamp housing very difficult to grasp with the fingers of one hand and are to be handled.
Aus DE 94 09 147 U1 ist eine Ein- und Ausbauhilfe zum Wechsel von zweiseitig gesockelten Leuchtstofflampen bekannt, die als längliche Platine auf die Kontaktstifte der Lampe aufsteckbar ist und sich im eingebauten Zustand von außen erreichbar zwischen Lampensockel und Lampenfassung befindet. Dabei weist die Platine entweder zwei Durchgangslöcher zum Durchstecken der Lampenkontaktstifte auf oder einen oder mehrere Schlitze zum nachträglichen Aufstecken der Platine auf die Lampenkontaktstifte auf. In beiden Ausführungsvarianten ist die Platine mit dem Lampensockel drehbar verbunden.DE 94 09 147 U1 is an installation and removal aid for changing of double-ended fluorescent lamps known as elongated board can be plugged onto the contact pins of the lamp and accessible from the outside between the lamp base when installed and lamp holder. The board either points two through holes for inserting the lamp contact pins on or one or more slots for subsequent insertion the circuit board onto the lamp contact pins. In both versions the circuit board is rotatably connected to the lamp base.
Sofern bei der einen Variante die Platine als separates Werkzeug ausgefuhrt ist, das bedarfsweise an die Lampenkontaktstifte angesteckt wird, besteht der Nachteil, dass dieses separate Werkzeug leicht verloren gehen kann oder umstandlich in der Nähe der Leuchte aufzubewahren ist, was ebenfalls die Wahrscheinlichkeit in sich birgt, dass es im Bedarfsfall nicht zur Verfügung steht. Soweit daran gedacht ist, die Platine dauerhaft mit den Lampenkontaktstiften verbunden zu lassen, ist anzumerken, dass die Platine bei jeder Handhabung einer Lampe auf deren Kontaktstifte aufzufädeln ist und im Falle eines Lampenwechsels von der zu entfernenden Lampe abgezogen werden muss.If the board is a separate tool in one variant is carried out, if necessary, to the lamp contact pins the disadvantage is that this separate tool easily get lost or awkward near the lamp is to be kept, which also contains the probability that it is not available when needed. As far as thought of it the board is permanently connected to the lamp contact pins leave it to be noted that the board has a Thread the lamp onto its contact pins and in the event of a lamp change be removed from the lamp to be removed got to.
Hiervon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Lampenfassung der vorgenannten Art verfügbar zu machen, die sich sehr leicht handhaben lässt und im Bedarfsfall stets zuverlässig zur Verfügung steht.Proceeding from this, the object of the invention is therefore based on a lamp holder of the aforementioned type available make that is very easy to handle and always when needed is reliably available.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht in den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1. Dem gemäß ist die Erfindung gekennzeichnet durch ein Betätigungsglied für den Rotor der Lampenfassung, das flach und im wesentlichen scheibenförmig ausgebildet und an der Ansichtsflache des Rotors befestigt ist und dabei ein im Bedienteil angeordneter Schlitz mit dem Führungsschlitz fluchtet und dadurch, dass das Bedienteil wenigstens einen im wesentlichen radial zur Lampenachse ausgerichteten Betätigungsarm aufweist, der über den Umfang des Fassungskörpers vorsteht.The solution to this problem consists in the features of independent claim 1. Accordingly, the invention is characterized by an actuator for the rotor of the lamp holder, the flat and essentially disc-shaped and on the View face of the rotor is attached and one in the control panel arranged slot is aligned with the guide slot and thereby, that the control unit has at least one substantially radial to the lamp axis Aligned actuating arm that over the The scope of the socket body protrudes.
Da das Bedienglied im Sinne eines Rotor-Betätigungsorgans am Rotor fest angebracht ist, steht es im Bedarfsfall stets zur Verfügung und kann nicht verloren gehen. Eine einfache Handhabung ist gewährleistet, da das Bedienglied zumindest über den Umfang des Fassungskörpers vorsteht, der in der Regel nicht größer ist als der Lampensockeldurchmesser. Ansonsten kann die Ausladung des Bedienglieds selbstverständlich auch so ausgelegt sein, dass sie den Umfang des Lampensockels überragt.Since the control element in the sense of a rotor actuator is permanently attached to the rotor, it is always available when needed and cannot be lost. Easy handling is guaranteed because the control element at least over the scope of Bulb body protrudes, which is usually no larger than that Lamp base diameter. Otherwise the projection of the The control element can of course also be designed so that the Exceeded the circumference of the lamp base.
Die Erfindung weist darüber hinaus weitere Vorteile auf Das am Rotor befestigte Bedienglied überträgt die von Hand ausgeübten Betätigungskrafte unmittelbar auf den Rotor, der dann seinerseits die Lampenkontaktstifte in Drehrichtung mitnimmt. Es werden demnach die Lampenkontaktstifte schonend vom Rotor und nicht über ein krafteinleitendes Werkzeug beaufschlagt Ein weiterer Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, dass das Bedienglied ein sehr einfaches, kleines Bauteil darstellt, dass z.B. als Spritzgießteil aus Kunststoff in einem wenig aufwändigen Spritzgießwerkzeug gefertigt werden kann. Zusätzlich weist die Erfindung den Vorzug auf, dass handelsübliche Rotorfassungen mit diesem Bedienglied nachträglich, d.h. nach Abschluss ihrer grundlegenden Herstellung ausgerüstet werden können. Eine erfindungsgemäße Lampenfassung benötigt daher keine besondere Fertigungsstufe in einem Produktionsprozess Dadurch vereinfacht sich die Disposition beim Fassungshersteller, der lediglich die aktuell benötigte Anzahl an Standardfassungen mit einem Bedienglied auszurüsten brauchtThe invention also has further advantages Rotor-attached control element transmits the manual operating forces directly on the rotor, which in turn is the lamp contact pins in the direction of rotation. So it will be the Lamp contact pins are gentle on the rotor and not on a force-introducing one Tool applied Another advantage of the invention is that the control element is a very simple, small component represents that e.g. as a plastic injection molded part in a little complex injection molding tool can be manufactured. additionally the invention has the advantage that commercially available rotor mounts with this control element, i.e. after completing their basic manufacturing can be equipped. An inventive Lamp holder therefore does not require a special manufacturing stage in a production process This simplifies Disposition at the frame manufacturer, who only needs the one currently required Number of standard sockets to be equipped with one control element need
In konstruktiver Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann das Bedienglied im wesentlichen form- und/oder rastschlüssig mit dem Rotor verbunden sein, also beispielsweise daran fest angeklemmt oder angerastet sein.In a constructive embodiment of the invention, the control element essentially positively and / or non-positively connected to the rotor be, for example, firmly clamped or snapped onto it his.
Gemäß einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel kann das Bedienglied auf seiner dem Rotor zugewandten Rückseite mit wenigstens einem Steck- oder Rastzapfen versehen sein zum Eingriff in wenigstens einen komplementären Durchbruch des Rotors. Diese Ausführung ist vornehmlich für Rotorfassungen besonders interessant, deren Rotor in der Stirnseite sog "Prüfspitzendurchbrüche" aufweist, die das Einführen von Prüfspitzen erlauben, die die hinter diesen Durchbrüchen liegenden Fassungskontakte zum Funktionstest der Leuchte beaufschlagen. Diesbezüglich macht sich die Erfindung das Vorhandensein solcher im Rotor vorhandener Bohrungen zunutze, um darin das Bedienglied mittels korrespondierender Zapfen zu befestigen.According to a preferred embodiment, the Control element on its rear facing the rotor with be provided with at least one plug or locking pin for engagement in at least one complementary breakthrough of the rotor. This Execution is particularly interesting for rotor mounts, whose rotor has so-called "test probe openings" in the front, that allow the insertion of test probes that the behind these Breakthrough socket contacts for the functional test of the Apply light. In this regard, the invention does that Take advantage of the presence of such holes in the rotor to to fix the control element in it by means of corresponding pins.
Das Bedienglied kann selbst wiederum Durchbrüche aufweisen, die mit den Prüfspitzenöffnungen des Rotors fluchten und somit die Funktion der Fassungsprüfung weiterhin gewährleisten. The control element itself can in turn have openings, that are aligned with the probe tip openings of the rotor and thus the Continue to guarantee the function of the frame check.
Entsprechend einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann das Bedienglied auf seiner dem Rotor zugewandten Rückseite mit einer Einsenkung versehen sein, deren Umriss an den Umriss des Rotors angepasst ist. Hierdurch ist eine Formanpassung zwischen Bedienglied und Rotor gegeben, die eine optimale Kraftübertragung vom Bedienglied auf den Rotor bei dessen Drehbetätigung garantiert.According to a further embodiment, this can Control element on its rear facing the rotor with a Be provided with a depression, the outline of which corresponds to the outline of the rotor is adjusted. This is a shape adjustment between the control element and rotor given an optimal power transmission from Operating element on the rotor guaranteed when it is turned.
