- a gap could arise in particular from the fact that - due to the material - change in temperature changes, the dimensions of the plate 8 to a different extent than those of the lamp housing 6.
- a support rail designed correspondingly wide, this can be reliably prevented.
- the holding member 12 has a C-shaped cross section, so that - in the case of a horizontal operating position of the plate 8 - the holding member 30 forms an upper limit 32 for the movement of the plate 8 through the upper C-leg; the lower C-leg can form the support element 30 or the support rail.
- an upper stop for the plate 8 can be formed in a simple manner, so that when the plate 8 is raised, it does not hit in an undesired manner against internal components of the luminaire 2.
- the vertical distance between the support formed by the support member 30 and the upper boundary 32 is selected such that the plate 8 can be raised a maximum of about finger width; In this way, on the one hand, the movement of the plate 8 up to a space-saving limit measure, on the other hand, a simple gripping the support with one finger or multiple fingers is possible, so that in the sequence, the support member 12 on the support down to its release position can be moved.
- the distance between the support and the upper boundary 32 or between the two C-legs is selected such that the plate 8 at most between 1 mm and 20 mm, preferably between 5 mm and 15 mm from the support can be lifted before it abuts the upper limit 32.
- a path length of a few centimeters may be provided, for example between 1 and 15 cm, preferably between 2 and 5 cm.
- the holding element 12 in the operating position flush with the surrounding edge of the lamp housing. 2 is positioned. This is particularly desirable in the case of a recessed ceiling light for aesthetic reasons.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Leuchte mit einem Leuchtengehäuse und einer Haltevorrichtung zur Halterung einer transparenten Platte zur flächigen Lichtabgabe.The invention relates to a luminaire with a luminaire housing and a holding device for holding a transparent plate for surface light output.
Eine Leuchte mit einem Leuchtengehäuse und einer transparenten Platte zur flächigen Lichtabgabe kann beispielsweise in Form einer Deckenleuchte gegeben sein. Eine solche Deckenleuchte kann weiterhin beispielsweise in Form einer Anbau- oder Einbauleuchte vorliegen. Im Fall einer Deckeneinbauleuchte kann vorgesehen sein, dass in der vorgesehenen Einbauposition der Leuchte die Platte derart angeordnet ist, dass sie in einer Ebene mit der umgebenden Decke liegt. Weiterhin beispielsweise kann auch eine Pendelleuchte eine Leuchte mit einem Leuchtengehäuse und einer transparenten Platte zur flächigen Lichtabgabe darstellen.A luminaire with a luminaire housing and a transparent plate for surface light emission can be provided, for example, in the form of a ceiling light. Such a ceiling light may continue to be present, for example in the form of a surface or recessed luminaire. In the case of a recessed ceiling light can be provided that in the intended installation position of the lamp, the plate is arranged such that it lies in a plane with the surrounding ceiling. Furthermore, for example, a pendant lamp can also be a luminaire with a luminaire housing and a transparent plate for surface light output.
Bei einer Leuchte, die eine transparente Platte zur flächigen Lichtabgabe aufweist, ist die Platte bei betriebsbereiter Anordnung der Leuchte üblicherweise gegenüber dem Leuchtengehäuse in einer bestimmten Position vorgesehen. Diese Position der Platte relativ zu dem Leuchtengehäuse sei im Folgenden kurz mit "Betriebsposition der Platte" bezeichnet.In a luminaire which has a transparent plate for surface light emission, the plate is usually provided with the lamp arrangement ready for operation in a specific position relative to the luminaire housing. This position of the plate relative to the lamp housing is hereinafter referred to briefly as "operating position of the plate".
In Zusammenhang mit Wartungs- oder Reinigungsarbeiten oder dergleichen stellt sich bei derartigen Leuchten oft die Aufgabe, das Innere der Leuchte zugänglich zu machen oder diejenige Seite der Platte, die in Betriebsposition zur Innenseite der Leuchte hin gerichtet ist. Hierzu ist, insbesondere im Fall von Deckeneinbauleuchten, in der Regel vorgesehen, die Platte aus ihrer Betriebsposition heraus zu bewegen.In connection with maintenance or cleaning work or the like arises in such lights often the task of making the interior of the lamp accessible or that side of the plate, which is directed in the operating position to the inside of the lamp out. For this purpose, in particular in the case of recessed ceiling lights, usually provided to move the plate out of its operating position.
In diesem Zusammenhang ist es aus dem Stand der Technik bei Deckeneinbauleuchten bekannt, zur Halterung der Platte an dem Leuchtengehäuse eine Haltevorrichtung in Form eines so genannten "Kaschierwinkels" vorzusehen, wobei sich diese Haltevorrichtung relativ zu dem Leuchtengehäuse so bewegen lässt, dass die Platte in der Folge aus ihrer Betriebsposition herausbewegt werden kann und somit Zugang zum Inneren der Leuchte ermöglicht ist.In this context, it is known from the prior art in recessed luminaires, for holding the plate to the luminaire housing to provide a holding device in the form of a so-called "Kaschierwinkels", wherein this Holding device relative to the lamp housing can move so that the plate can be moved out of its operating position in the sequence and thus access to the interior of the lamp is made possible.
Ein Problem hierbei besteht darin, dass die bekannte Haltevorrichtung nach dem beschriebenen Lösevorgang der Platte als Teil vorliegt, das von der restlichen Leuchte separiert ist; hierdurch ist die Gefahr gegeben, dass das Halteelement verloren geht oder unter Umständen beschädigt wird. Auch ist die Handhabung bei der Demontage der Platte vergleichsweise aufwändig.A problem here is that the known holding device after the described release operation of the plate is present as part, which is separated from the rest of the lamp; This creates the risk that the retaining element is lost or may be damaged. Also, the handling when disassembling the plate is relatively expensive.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine entsprechende Leuchte anzugeben, die besonders bedienungsfreundlich und sicher ist.The present invention is based on the object to provide a corresponding light that is very easy to use and safe.
Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung mit dem in dem unabhängigen Anspruch genannten Gegenstand gelöst. Besondere Ausführungsarten der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved according to the invention with the object mentioned in the independent claim. Particular embodiments of the invention are indicated in the dependent claims.
Gemäß der Erfindung ist eine Leuchte mit einem Leuchtengehäuse und einer transparenten Platte zur flächigen Lichtabgabe vorgesehen. Weiterhin umfasst die Leuchte eine Haltevorrichtung zur Halterung der transparenten Platte. Die Haltevorrichtung weist ein Halteelement für die transparente Platte auf. Weiterhin weist die Haltevorrichtung ein Basiselement auf, das dazu vorgesehen ist, fest mit dem Leuchtengehäüse verbunden zu werden oder Teil des Leuchtengehäuses zu bilden, sowie ein Verbindungselement, das einerseits mit dem Halteelement und andererseits mit dem Basiselement verbunden ist, wobei das Verbindungselement gegenüber dem Basiselement und/oder gegenüber dem Halteelement beweglich angeordnet ist.According to the invention, a luminaire is provided with a luminaire housing and a transparent plate for surface light emission. Furthermore, the lamp comprises a holding device for holding the transparent plate. The holding device has a holding element for the transparent plate. Furthermore, the holding device on a base member which is intended to be fixedly connected to the lampshade or to form part of the lamp housing, and a connecting element which is connected on the one hand with the holding element and on the other hand with the base member, wherein the connecting element relative to the base member and / or is arranged to be movable relative to the retaining element.
Dadurch, dass das Halteelement über das Verbindungselement beweglich mit dem Basiselement verbunden ist, wird ermöglicht, dass bei einer Leuchte, die eine erfindungsgemäße Haltevorrichtung aufweist, die Platte aus der Betriebsposition herausbewegt wird und anschließend das Halteelement noch mit dem Leuchtengehäuse verbunden ist beziehungsweise bleibt. Dadurch ist die Gefahr vermindert, dass das Halteelement verloren geht oder beschädigt wird. Außerdem ist die Handhabung bei Demontage und Montage der Platte vereinfacht, da das Halteelement besonders leicht ergriffen werden kann.The fact that the holding element is movably connected to the base element via the connecting element makes it possible for a luminaire having a holding device according to the invention to move the plate out of the operating position and subsequently to connect the holding element to the luminaire housing. This reduces the risk that the retaining element is lost or damaged. In addition, the handling is included Disassembly and assembly of the plate simplified, since the holding element can be particularly easily taken.
Erfindungsgemäß umfasst das Verbindungselement eine Feder, beispielsweise eine Drahtformfeder. Hierdurch lässt sich auf herstellungstechnisch einfache Weise erzielen, dass das Halteelement in Betriebsposition in einem stabilen Zustand gehalten wird. Die Funktionen "Sicherung des Halteelements am Basiselement" und "stabile Halterung der Platte in Betriebsposition" werden in diesem Fall vorteilhaft durch nur ein Element, nämlich das Verbindungselement, erfüllt. Das Basiselement weist zwei Führungselemente zur Führung des Verbindungselements auf.According to the invention, the connecting element comprises a spring, for example a wire-form spring. As a result, it can be achieved in a simple manner in terms of manufacturing technology that the holding element is kept in a stable state in the operating position. The functions "securing the retaining element on the base element" and "stable mounting of the plate in the operating position" are in this case advantageously fulfilled by only one element, namely the connecting element. The base element has two guide elements for guiding the connecting element.
Vorteilhaft ist die bewegliche Anordnung des Halteelements am Basiselement derart gestaltet, dass das Halteelement relativ zu dem Basiselement in eine Betriebsposition des Halteelements gebracht werden kann und aus dieser Betriebsposition wieder heraus bewegt werden kann, wobei sich die Haltevorrichtung oder zumindest das Verbindungselement in einem stabilen Zustand befindet, wenn sich das Halteelement in Betriebsposition befindet. Mit "Betriebsposition des Halteelements" möge dabei diejenige Position des Halteelements bezeichnet sein, in der das Halteelement die Platte in deren Betriebsposition halten kann. Auf diese Weise lässt sich erzielen, dass die Platte allein durch die Haltevorrichtung in ihrer betriebsgemäßen Position gehalten wird. In diesem Fall sind hierfür also keine weiteren Bauteile oder Maßnahmen erforderlich.Advantageously, the movable arrangement of the holding element on the base element designed such that the holding element can be brought relative to the base member in an operating position of the holding member and can be moved out of this operating position again, wherein the holding device or at least the connecting element is in a stable state when the holding element is in the operating position. With "operating position of the holding element" may be designated that position of the holding element, in which the holding element can hold the plate in its operating position. In this way it can be achieved that the plate is held solely by the holding device in its operative position. In this case, therefore, no further components or measures are required for this.
Vorteilhaft ist die bewegliche Anordnung des Halteelements am Basiselement derart gestaltet, dass das Halteelement relativ zu dem Basiselement in eine Löseposition des Halteelements gebracht werden kann und aus dieser Löseposition wieder heraus bewegt werden kann, wobei sich die Haltevorrichtung oder zumindest das Verbindungselement in einem stabilen Zustand befindet, wenn sich das Halteelement in Löseposition befindet. Dabei sei mit "Löseposition des Halteelements" eine Position des Halteelements bezeichnet, in der die Platte ohne Weiteres von dem Leuchtengehäuse separiert werden kann. Hierdurch wird die Handhabung beim Lösen der Platte vom Leuchtengehäuse vereinfacht, weil das Halteelement in Löseposition nicht gehalten werden muss oder zumindest ein Halten des Halteelements in dieser Position einfacher ist.Advantageously, the movable arrangement of the holding element on the base element is designed such that the holding element can be brought relative to the base element in a release position of the holding element and can be moved out of this release position again, wherein the holding device or at least the connecting element is in a stable state when the retaining element is in the release position. In this case, a position of the holding element is designated by "release position of the holding element", in which the plate can be easily separated from the lamp housing. As a result, the handling when releasing the plate is simplified by the lamp housing, because the retaining element in release position does not have to be maintained or at least holding the retaining element in this position is easier.
Wenn das Halteelement ein Auflageelement für die Platte umfasst, lässt sich - im Fall einer horizontalen Ausrichtung der Platte in Betriebsposition - folgender besonders bedienungsfreundlicher Ablauf zum Herausbewegen der Platte aus der Betriebsposition ermöglichen: Zunächst wird die Platte in einem Bereich, der an das Auflageelement grenzt, gegen die Schwerkraft nach oben gedrückt, in einem weiteren Schritt wird dann das Auflageelement erfasst und aus der Betriebsposition heraus nach unten gezogen. Dies stellt eine besonders handhabungsfreundliche Bedienungsabfolge dar; insbesondere lässt sich das Halteelement beziehungsweise das Auflageelement leicht ergreifen, wenn die Platte nach oben gedrückt und somit von der Auflage entfernt ist; auf diese Weise kann auch ermöglicht sein, dass sich die Platte ohne Zuhilfenahme eines Werkzeugs aus der Betriebsposition herausbewegen lässt.If the holding element comprises a support element for the plate, it is possible-in the case of a horizontal alignment of the plate in the operating position-to allow the following particularly user-friendly procedure for moving the plate out of the operating position. First, the plate is placed in an area adjacent to the support element. pressed against gravity up, in a further step, then the support element is detected and pulled out of the operating position down. This represents a particularly easy-to-use operating sequence; in particular, the holding element or the support element can be easily gripped when the plate is pushed upwards and thus removed from the support; In this way it can also be possible that the plate can be moved out of the operating position without the aid of a tool.
Wenn dabei das Auflageelement eine Auflageschiene umfasst, kann erzielt werden, dass bei einer temperaturbedingten relativen Längenänderung zwischen der Platte und dem Leuchtengehäuse die Bildung eines sichtbaren Spalts vermieden wird.In this case, if the support element comprises a support rail, it can be achieved that the formation of a visible gap is avoided with a temperature-related relative change in length between the plate and the lamp housing.
Erfindungsgemäß weist das Halteelement einen C-förmigen Querschnitt auf. Beispielsweise kann also eine Auflageschiene mit einem C-förmigen Querschnitt vorgesehen sein. Hierdurch kann - bei horizontaler Ausrichtung der Platte in Betriebsposition - ein oberer Anschlag für die Platte gebildet werden, mit dem zuverlässig verhindert werden kann, dass die Platte bei einem Anheben ungewollt gegen innen liegende Bauteile der Leuchte stößt. Dabei ist der C-förmige Querschnitt derart ausgebildet ist, dass die Platte zwischen den beiden C-Schenkeln maximal zwischen 1 mm und 20 mm, vorzugsweise maximal zwischen 5 mm und 15 mm bewegt werden kann.According to the invention, the holding element has a C-shaped cross section. For example, therefore, a support rail can be provided with a C-shaped cross-section. In this way can - with horizontal alignment of the plate in the operating position - an upper stop for the plate are formed with the reliable can be prevented that the plate accidentally abuts when lifting against internal components of the lamp. In this case, the C-shaped cross-section is formed such that the plate between the two C-legs maximum of between 1 mm and 20 mm, preferably a maximum of between 5 mm and 15 mm can be moved.
Vorteilhaft ist in diesem Fall das Basiselement der Haltevorrichtung Teil des Leuchtengehäuses. Die Leuchte kann eine Deckenleuchte, vorzugsweise eine Deckeneinbauleuchte sein. Vorteilhaft ist das Halteelement in Betriebsposition bündig mit dem umgebenden Rand des Leuchtengehäuses positioniert.In this case, the base element of the holding device is advantageously part of the luminaire housing. The lamp can be a ceiling light, preferably a Be recessed ceiling light. Advantageously, the holding element is positioned in the operating position flush with the surrounding edge of the lamp housing.

Dabei sei mit Betriebsposition des Halteelements 12 eine Position bezeichnet, in der das Halteelement 12 relativ zum Basiselement 14 derart positioniert ist, dass es - wenn die Haltevorrichtung 10 in die Leuchte 2 eingebaut ist - die Platte 8 in deren Betriebsposition gegenüber dem Leuchtengehäuse 6 halten kann.The movable arrangement of the holding
In
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass für das Halteelement 12 in Betriebsposition ein Anschlag gebildet ist, beispielsweise - wie in den Figuren andeutungsweise zu erkennen - durch das Basiselement 14. Im Fall einer Deckenleuchte beziehungsweise in einem Fall, in dem die Platte 8 in ihrer Betriebsposition horizontal angeordnet ist, kann also ein oberer beziehungsweise vertikaler Anschlag für das Halteelement 12 gebildet sein, der eine weitere Aufwärtsbewegung des Halteelements 12 aus der Betriebsposition heraus verhindert. Dies trägt zur weitergehenden Stabilisierung bei. Außerdem kann ein weiterer beziehungsweise horizontaler Anschlag für das Halteelement 12 gebildet sein, der eine Bewegung des Halteelements 12 in eine Richtung, die von der Platte 8 weg weist, verhindert. Die Halterung wird hierdurch besonders zuverlässig. Ein derartiger weiterer beziehungsweise horizontaler Anschlag kann beispielsweise durch das Basiselement 14 oder durch das Leuchtengehäuse 6 gebildet sein.It can be provided that a stop is formed for the holding
Weiterhin kann die bewegliche Anordnung des Halteelements 12 am Basiselement 14 derart gestaltet sein, dass das Halteelement 12 relativ zu dem Basiselement 14 in eine "Löseposition" des Halteelements 12 gebracht werden kann und aus dieser Löseposition wieder heraus bewegt werden kann. Dabei sei mit "Löseposition" eine Position des Halteelements 12 bezeichnet, in der die Platte 8 ohne Weiteres von dem Leuchtengehäuse 6 separiert werden kann.Furthermore, the movable arrangement of the holding
In
Wie im Fall des Ausführungsbeispiels gezeigt, kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Verbindungselement 16 eine Feder umfasst, beispielsweise durch eine Feder gebildet ist. Im gezeigten Beispiel ist das Verbindungselement 16 durch einen vorzugsweise im Querschnitt runden, gebogenen Federdraht gebildet, also durch eine Federspange beziehungsweise eine Drahtformfeder. Hierdurch lässt sich auf einfache Weise erzielen, dass das Halteelement 12 in seine Betriebsposition und in seine Löseposition gebracht werden kann, wobei sich in beiden Fällen das Verbindungselement 16 in einem stabilen Zustand befindet. Hierfür kann beispielsweise vorgesehen sein, dass das Basiselement 14 zwei Führungselemente 20, 22 aufweist, die zur Führung des Verbindungselements 16 dienen, während das Halteelement 12 von der Betriebsposition in die Löseposition bewegt wird oder von der Löseposition in die Betriebsposition. Die Führungselemente 20, 22 können beispielsweise Gleitflächen für das Verbindungselement 16 aufweisen. Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Führungselemente 20, 22 herstellungstechnisch vorteilhaft durch nach außen gebogene Ausstanzungen des Basiselements 14 gebildet.As shown in the case of the embodiment, it can be provided that the connecting
Zur Stabilisierung des Zustands des Verbindungselements 16 bei Löseposition des Halteelements 12 kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Verbindungselement 12 in Form der Drahtfeder an seinen beiden Endbereichen Abbiegungen 28, 29 aufweist, die Anschläge an den beiden Führungselementen 20, 22 bilden. Zur weitergehenden Stabilisierung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Abbiegungen 28, 29 jeweils U-förmig gestaltet sind, so dass sie besonders stabil an den Führungselementen 20, 22 einrasten können. Diese Variante ist in
Eine Führung für das Verbindungselement 16 am Halteelement 12 kann beispielsweise durch zwei Führungsöffnungen 24, 26 gebildet sein.A guide for the connecting
Durch die Ausbildung des Verbindungselements 16 als Feder ist es weiterhin leicht erzielbar, dass das Halteelement 12 in Löseposition in eine Richtung bewegt werden kann, die quer zu derjenigen Kante der Platte 8 verläuft, die durch das Halteelement 12 gehalten wird. Hierdurch ist die Handhabung bei Montage und Demontage der Platte 8 weiterhin vereinfacht.Due to the design of the connecting
Wie aus den
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es in diesem Fall, wenn das Auflageelement 30 - wie in den Figuren gezeigt - eine Auflageschiene umfasst, weil hierdurch vermieden werden kann, dass bei Betrachtung der Leuchte 2 von außen zwischen dem betreffenden Rand der Platte 8 und dem Leuchtengehäuse 6 oder sonstigen Bauteilen der Leuchte 2 beziehungsweise der Haltevorrichtung 10 ein Spalt sichtbar wird. Ein derartiger Spalt könnte insbesondere dadurch entstehen, dass sich - werkstoffbedingt - bei Temperaturänderungen die Abmessungen der Platte 8 in anderem Maße verändern als diejenigen des Leuchtengehäuses 6. Mit einer Auflageschiene, entsprechend breit gestaltet, lässt sich dies zuverlässig verhindern.It is particularly advantageous in this case, when the support member 30 - as shown in the figures - includes a support rail, because this can be avoided that when viewing the
Weiterhin vorteilhaft weist das Halteelement 12 einen C-förmigen Querschnitt auf, so dass - im Fall einer horizontalen Betriebsposition der Platte 8 - das Halteelement 30 durch den oberen C-Schenkel eine obere Begrenzung 32 für die Bewegung der Platte 8 bildet; der untere C-Schenkel kann das Auflageelement 30 bzw. die Auflageschiene bilden. Hierdurch lässt sich auf einfache Weise ein oberer Anschlag für die Platte 8 bilden, so dass bei einem Anheben der Platte 8 diese nicht in ungewollter Weise gegen innen liegende Bauteile der Leuchte 2 stößt. Dabei ist es im Hinblick auf eine einfache Handhabung besonders vorteilhaft, wenn der vertikale Abstand zwischen der durch das Auflageelement 30 gebildeten Auflage und der oberen Begrenzung 32 derart gewählt ist, dass die Platte 8 maximal etwa um Fingerbreite angehoben werden kann; auf diese Weise lässt sich einerseits die Bewegung der Platte 8 nach oben auf ein raumsparendes Maß begrenzen, andererseits wird ein einfaches Ergreifen der Auflage mit einem Finger beziehungsweise mehreren Fingern ermöglicht, so dass in der Folge das Halteelement 12 an der Auflage nach unten in seine Löseposition bewegt werden kann.Further advantageously, the holding
Beispielsweise kann also vorgesehen sein, dass der Abstand zwischen der Auflage und der oberen Begrenzung 32 beziehungsweise zwischen den beiden C-Schenkeln derart gewählt ist, dass die Platte 8 maximal zwischen 1 mm und 20 mm, vorzugsweise zwischen 5 mm und 15 mm von der Auflage abgehoben werden kann, bevor sie an die obere Begrenzung 32 stößt.For example, it may thus be provided that the distance between the support and the
Für die Bewegung des Halteelements 12 zwischen der Betriebsposition und der Löseposition kann eine Weglänge von einigen Zentimetern vorgesehen sein, beispielsweise zwischen 1 und 15 cm, vorzugsweise zwischen 2 und 5 cm.For the movement of the holding
Bei einer erfindungsgemäßen Leuchte kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Halteelement 12 in Betriebsposition bündig mit dem umgebenden Rand des Leuchtengehäuses 2 positioniert ist. Dies ist insbesondere im Fall einer Deckeneinbauleuchte aus ästhetischen Gründen wünschenswert.In a luminaire according to the invention it can be provided that the holding
Mit der vorliegenden Erfindung wird eine besonders bedienungsfreundliche Möglichkeit angegeben, bei einer entsprechenden Leuchte die transparente Platte aus der Betriebsposition heraus zu bewegen und von der Leuchte zu lösen, um Zugang zum Inneren der Leuchte zu ermöglichen. Die Erfindung ermöglicht dabei eine besonders sichere Handhabung, weil bei diesem Vorgang keine separaten Teile gebildet werden müssen. Außerdem erlaubt die Erfindung eine Demontage der Platte, die mit besonders einfachen Handgriffen, auch ohne Werkzeug, möglich ist und dabei auch eine unter ästhetischen Gesichtspunkten ansprechende Lösung bietet.With the present invention, a particularly user-friendly option is given to move the transparent plate out of the operating position and release it from the luminaire in order to allow access to the interior of the luminaire with a corresponding luminaire. The invention allows a particularly safe handling, because in this process no separate parts must be formed. In addition, the invention allows disassembly of the plate, which is possible with very simple handles, even without tools, while also offering an aesthetically pleasing solution.
