Aus der WO 2011/064396 AI ist eine Deckeneinbauleuchte zum Bilden einer Lichtlinie bekannt. Die Leuchte weist ein längliches, kanalartiges Gehäuse auf, das durch einen, im Querschnitt U-förmigen Profilkörper gebildet ist. Durch die beiden U- Schenkel sind Seitenwände des Gehäuses gebildet, wobei sich zwischen den freien Endbereichen der Seitenwände ein linienartiger Lichtaustrittsbereich erstreckt. Zum Einbau in eine Deckeneinbauöffnung wird das Gehäuse dementsprechend so orientiert, dass die beiden U-Schenkel und somit der Lichtaustrittsbereich nach unten weisen. Aufgrund dieser Gestaltung ist insbesondere während des Einbaus des Gehäuses in eine entsprechende Einbauöffnung die Gefahr gegeben, dass sich die unteren From WO 2011/064396 AI a recessed ceiling light for forming a light line is known. The luminaire has an elongate, channel-like housing which is formed by a profile body which is U-shaped in cross-section. Side walls of the housing are formed by the two U-legs, wherein a line-like light exit region extends between the free end regions of the side walls. For installation in a ceiling installation opening, the housing is accordingly oriented such that the two U-legs and thus the light exit area point downwards. Due to this design, in particular during installation of the housing in a corresponding mounting hole the risk that the lower

Hierdurch ist eine korrekte Befestigung des Gehäuses in der Einbauöffnung erschwert. Bend side wall boundaries so that they no longer extend along a line with the desired accuracy. As a result, a correct attachment of the housing in the mounting hole is difficult.

2011/064396 AI vorgesehen - derart gestaltet ist, dass es sich quer zur Profilachse etwas biegen lässt, so dass sich die Leuchte insbesondere auch zum Einbau in einen gewölbten Deckenbereich eignet. Zur Erzielung der Biegbarkeit sind die Seitenwände mit Schlitzen versehen, die sich bis an die unteren Begrenzungen der Seitenwände erstrecken, so dass zwischen jeweils zwei Schlitzen entsprechende Seitenwand- Segmente gebildet sind. Diese Seitenwand-Segmente sind daher gegenüber einem unerwünschten Verbiegen besonders anfällig. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine entsprechende verbesserte Leuchte anzugeben. Insbesondere soll die Leuchte eine erleichterte präzise Anordnung des Gehäuses ermöglichen. 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. Gemäß der Erfindung ist eine Leuchte zum Bilden einer Lichtlinie vorgesehen, die ein längliches Gehäuse aufweist, das sich entlang einer Längsrichtung erstreckt. Das Gehäuse weist dabei einen Randbereich zur Festlegung eines, sich linienartig entlang der Längsrichtung erstreckenden Lichtaustrittsbereichs auf. Weiterhin weist die Leuchte mindestens ein Fassungselement auf, das den Randbereich fassend angeordnet ist. 2011/064396 AI provided - is designed so that it can be bent slightly transversely to the profile axis, so that the lamp is particularly suitable for installation in a curved ceiling area.

Auf diese Weise lässt sich das Abdeckelement besonders geeignet so weich gestalten, dass es sich - insbesondere auch im Fall einer insgesamt gekrümmten Anordnung des Gehäuses - besonders einfach mit dem Fassungselement verbinden lässt. Preferably, the luminaire further comprises a translucent cover element, which is arranged overlapping the light exit region, wherein furthermore preferably the cover element has a lower degree of hardness than the socket element. In this way, the cover can be particularly suitably designed so soft that it - especially in the case of an overall curved arrangement of the housing - particularly easy to connect to the socket element.

Auch so lässt sich das Abdeckelement geeignet so gestalten, dass es sich besonders einfach montieren lässt. Alternatively it can be provided that the at least one socket element is arranged covering the light exit region, wherein preferably the at least one socket element has a first region and a second region, wherein the two regions differ in their degree of hardness.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Skizze eines Abschnitts einer erfindungsgemäßen Leuchte gemäß einem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel. Die Leuchte ist dazu ausgestaltet, eine Lichtlinie zu bilden. Bei der Leuchte kann es sich beispielsweise um eine Einbauleuchte handeln, insbesondere um eine Deckeneinbauleuchte. Fig. 1 shows a perspective sketch of a portion of a lamp according to the invention according to a first embodiment. The luminaire is designed to form a light line. The luminaire can be, for example, a recessed luminaire, in particular a recessed ceiling luminaire.
Die Leuchte umfasst ein längliches Gehäuse 1 , das sich entlang einer Längsrichtung L erstreckt. In Fig. 2 ist das Gehäuse 1 in separater Form skizziert. In Fig. 3 ist ein Querschnitt normal zu der Längsrichtung L skizziert. Das Gehäuse 1 weist einen Randbereich 3 zur Festlegung bzw. Strukturierung eines Lichtaustrittsbereichs 2 auf, der sich linienartig entlang der Längsrichtung L erstreckt. Der Lichtaustrittsbereich 2 dient insbesondere zur Erzeugung und seitlichen The luminaire comprises an elongated housing 1 which extends along a longitudinal direction L. In Fig. 2, the housing 1 is sketched in a separate form. In Fig. 3 is a cross section normal to the longitudinal direction L sketched. The housing 1 has an edge region 3 for defining or structuring a light exit region 2, which extends in a line-like manner along the longitudinal direction L. The light exit area 2 is used in particular for generating and lateral
Begrenzung der mit der Leuchte zu erzeugenden Lichtlinie. Limitation of the light line to be generated with the luminaire.
Vorzugsweise ist das Gehäuse 1 derart beweglich gestaltet, dass es sich in einer Richtung quer zur Längsrichtung L biegen lässt. Auf diese Weise lässt sich eine insgesamt entsprechend gekrümmte Lichtlinie erzeugen. Dabei kann weiterhin vorzugsweise vorgesehen sein, dass der entsprechende Krümmungsradius begrenzt ist, beispielsweise auf mindestens einen Meter. Auch kann dabei die Gestaltung derart sein, dass sich das Gehäuse 1 um zwei Biegeachsen biegen lässt, die jeweils senkrecht zu der Längsrichtung L orientiert sind und dabei zueinander ebenfalls senkrecht orientiert sind. Preferably, the housing 1 is designed to be movable so that it can be bent in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction L. In this way, an overall correspondingly curved light line can be generated. It may further preferably be provided that the corresponding radius of curvature is limited, for example, to at least one meter. Also, the design may be such that the housing 1 can be bent about two bending axes, which are each oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L and are also oriented perpendicular to each other.
Im gezeigten Beispiel umfasst das Gehäuse 1 einen Seitenwandbereich 6, der einen freien Endbereich aufweist, durch den der Randbereich 3 gebildet ist. In the example shown, the housing 1 comprises a side wall region 6 which has a free end region, by means of which the edge region 3 is formed.
Vorteilhaft kann das Gehäuse 1 in einem Querschnitt normal zu der Längsrichtung L betrachtet in erster Näherung U-förmig sein, wobei der Seitenwandbereich 6 durch einen der beiden U-Schenkel gebildet ist. Insbesondere kann das Gehäuse 1 profilartig gestaltet sein, wobei sich die entsprechende Profilachse parallel zur Längsrichtung L erstreckt. Dementsprechend erstreckt sich - in einem Querschnitt normal zu der Längsrichtung L betrachtet - der Seitenwandbereich 6 entlang einer Haupterstreckung H, die senkrecht zu der Längsrichtung L orientiert ist. Advantageously, viewed in a cross section normal to the longitudinal direction L, the housing 1 can be U-shaped to a first approximation, wherein the side wall region 6 is formed by one of the two U-legs. In particular, the housing 1 may be designed profile-like, with the corresponding profile axis extending parallel to the longitudinal direction L. Accordingly, viewed in a cross section normal to the longitudinal direction L, the sidewall region 6 extends along a main extension H which is oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L.
Wie weiterhin beispielhaft in Fig. 2 skizziert, kann der Seitenwandbereich 6 mehrere Seitenwand- Segmente 7 aufweisen, die in einer Reihe entlang der Längsrichtung L angeordnet sind. Dabei kann die Gestaltung derart sein, dass die Seitenwand-Segmente 7 unabhängig voneinander in einer Richtung quer zur Längsachse L biegbar sind, also beispielsweise mit Bezug auf die U-Form nach außen und/oder nach innen. Im gezeigten Beispiel sind hierbei die Seitenwand-Segmente 7 untereinander durch Schlitze 10 getrennt, die sich quer über den gesamten Seitenwandbereich 6 erstrecken. Die Schlitze 10 dienen beim gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel zur Erzielung der oben erwähnten Biegbarkeit des Gehäuses 1. Insbesondere ist im gezeigten As further exemplified in FIG. 2, the sidewall region 6 may comprise a plurality of sidewall segments 7 arranged in a row along the longitudinal direction L. In this case, the design may be such that the side wall segments 7 are bendable independently of each other in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis L, that is, for example, with respect to the U-shape to the outside and / or inside. in the In this case, the side wall segments 7 are separated from one another by slots 10 which extend transversely over the entire side wall region 6. The slots 10 are used in the embodiment shown to achieve the above-mentioned bendability of the housing 1. In particular, is shown in the
Ausführungsbeispiel die Gestaltung derart, dass das Gehäuse 1 sowohl um eine erste Biegeachse biegbar gestaltet ist, die senkrecht zur Längsrichtung L und senkrecht zu der Haupterstreckung H bzw. zu dem Seitenwandbereich 6 orientiert ist, als auch um eine zweite Biegeachse, die senkrecht zu der ersten Biegeachse und senkrecht zu der Längsrichtung L orientiert ist. Embodiment, the design such that the housing 1 is designed to be bendable both about a first bending axis, which is oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L and perpendicular to the main extension H or to the side wall portion 6, as well as a second bending axis perpendicular to the first Bending axis and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L is oriented.
Die Schlitze 10 können - wie in den Figuren 1 und 2 beispielhaft gezeigt - schlaufenförmig ineinandergreifend gestaltet sein, so dass hierdurch eine Begrenzung einer Biegbarkeit des Gehäuses 1 um eine Biegeachse erzielt wird, die senkrecht zur Längsrichtung L und senkrecht zu der Haupterstreckung H der Seitenwand 6 orientiert ist, hier also um die erste Biegeachse. As shown by way of example in FIGS. 1 and 2, the slots 10 can be looped in interlocking fashion, thereby limiting the flexibility of the housing 1 about a bending axis which is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L and perpendicular to the main extension H of the side wall 6 oriented, so here around the first bending axis.
Weiterhin weist die Leuchte ein Fassungselement 4 auf, das den Randbereich 3 fassend angeordnet ist. Durch das Fassungselement 4 lässt sich erzielen, dass der RandbereichFurthermore, the lamp has a socket element 4, which is arranged bordering the edge region 3. By the socket element 4 can be achieved that the edge area
3 stabilisiert ist. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Fassungselement 4 profilartig gestaltet ist, wobei sich die entsprechende Profilachse entlang der 3 is stabilized. In particular, it can be provided that the socket element 4 is designed profile-like, with the corresponding profile axis along the
Längsrichtung L erstreckt. Weiterhin vorzugsweise weist das Fassungselement 4 einen Fassungsbereich 5 auf, der den Randbereich 3 entlang der Längsrichtung L ausgerichtet hält. So lässt sich erzielen, dass der Randbereich 3 besonders exakt linienförmig ausgerichtet ist und bleibt, insbesondere auch dann, wenn das Gehäuse 1 - beispielsweise während einer Einbaumaßnahme - in sich verformt wird.  Lengthwise L extends. Furthermore, preferably, the socket element 4 has a socket area 5, which keeps the edge area 3 aligned along the longitudinal direction L. Thus, it can be achieved that the edge region 3 is aligned and remains particularly precisely linear, in particular even when the housing 1 is deformed, for example during a fitting procedure.
Vorzugsweise ist hierzu das Fassungselement 4 derart gestaltet, dass es sich quer zur Längsrichtung L weniger auslenken lässt als der Randbereich 3 bzw. der  Preferably, for this purpose, the socket element 4 is designed such that it can deflect less than the edge region 3 or the transversely to the longitudinal direction L.
Seitenwandbereich 6. Andererseits ist weiterhin vorzugsweise das Fassungselement 4 jedoch auch derart elastisch gestaltet, dass es sich quer zur Längsachse biegen lässt, derart, dass die für das Gehäuse 1 vorgesehen Biegbarkeit durch das FassungselementSide wall portion 6. On the other hand, however, further preferably the socket element 4 is also designed so elastic that it can bend transversely to the longitudinal axis, such that the flexibility provided for the housing 1 by the socket element
4 nicht eingeschränkt ist. Beispielsweise kann das Fassungselement 4 zumindest überwiegend aus einem Kunststoff bestehen, beispielsweise Polycarbonat und/oder das Gehäuse zumindest überwiegend aus einem Metall, beispielsweise Aluminium. Entsprechend zweckmäßig kann die Gestaltung derart sein, dass sich das 4 is not limited. For example, the socket element 4 at least predominantly consist of a plastic, for example polycarbonate and / or the housing at least predominantly of a metal, for example aluminum. According appropriately, the design may be such that the
Fassungselement 4 entlang der Längsrichtung L betrachtet über zumindest zwei, vorzugsweise über alle der Seitenwand-Segmente 7 hinweg erstreckt.  Socket element 4 viewed along the longitudinal direction L over at least two, preferably extends over all of the side wall segments 7 away.
Wie im gezeigten Beispiel der Fall, kann der Fassungsbereich 5 - in einem Querschnitt normal zu der Längsrichtung L betrachtet - den Randbereich 3 von zwei As in the example shown, the socket area 5 - viewed in a cross-section normal to the longitudinal direction L - the edge portion 3 of two
gegenüberliegenden Seiten kontaktieren. So lässt sich eine besonders geeignete Ausrichtung des Randbereichs 3 bewirken. Contact opposite sides. Thus, a particularly suitable alignment of the edge region 3 can be effected.
Der Fassungsbereich 5 kann hierzu derart geformt sein, dass er zwei Schenkel 11 aufweist, die sich parallel zur Haupterstreckung H des Seitenwandbereichs 6 erstrecken und die den Randbereich 3 von zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten umfassen. For this purpose, the socket area 5 can be shaped such that it has two legs 11 which extend parallel to the main extension H of the side wall area 6 and which comprise the edge area 3 of two opposite sides.
Ein besonders einfacher Zusammenbau der Leuchte lässt sich erzielen, wenn das Fassungselement 4 mit dem Randbereich 3 über eine Rastverbindung verbunden ist, insbesondere lediglich über die Rastverbindung. Im gezeigten Beispiel weist hierzu der Randbereich 3 Noppen 12 auf, die mit Bezug auf die U-Form nach innen weisen und die mit dem Fassungsbereich 5 zur Erzielung der Rastverbindung zwischen dem Randbereich 3 und dem Fassungselement 4 wechselwirken. Wie aus den Figuren 1 bis 3 hervorgeht, ist bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel das Fassungselement 4 so gestaltet, dass es den Lichtaustrittsbereich 2 nicht überdeckt. A particularly simple assembly of the lamp can be achieved if the socket element 4 is connected to the edge region 3 via a latching connection, in particular only via the latching connection. In the example shown, for this purpose, the edge region 3 nubs 12 which have inwardly with respect to the U-shape and which interact with the socket portion 5 to achieve the locking connection between the edge portion 3 and the socket member 4. As can be seen from FIGS. 1 to 3, in the exemplary embodiment shown, the socket element 4 is designed such that it does not cover the light exit region 2.
Die Leuchte weist jedoch weiterhin vorzugsweise ein lichtdurchlässiges However, the luminaire further preferably has a translucent
Abdeckelement 8 auf, das den Lichtaustrittsbereich 2 überdeckend angeordnet ist. Hierdurch lässt sich ein Schutz eines von dem Gehäuse 1 gebildeten Innenraums der Leuchte erzielen; außerdem lässt sich das Abdeckelement 8 als optisch wirksames Element zur Bildung der Lichtlinie gestalten. Beispielsweise kann das Abdeckelement 8 als optischer Diffusor gestaltet sein. Vorzugsweise weist das Abdeckelement 8 einen geringeren Härtegrad auf als das Fassungselement 4. Auf diese Weise lässt sich insbesondere erzielen, dass sich das Abdeckelement 8 beim Zusammenbau der Leuchte besonders einfach anbringen bzw. montieren lässt. Covering 8, which is arranged covering the light exit region 2. This makes it possible to achieve protection of an interior of the luminaire formed by the housing 1; In addition, the cover 8 can be designed as an optically active element to form the light line. For example, the cover 8 may be designed as an optical diffuser. Preferably, the cover element 8 has a lower degree of hardness than the socket element 4. In this way, it is possible in particular to achieve that the cover element 8 is particularly easy to attach or assemble when assembling the lamp.
Beispielsweise kann die Abdeckung aus PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylat) bestehen. Dies ist besonders vorteilhaft mit Bezug auf die mechanischen und optischen For example, the cover may consist of PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate). This is particularly advantageous with respect to the mechanical and optical
Eigenschaften des Abdeckelements 8. Properties of the cover 8.
Vorteilhaft kann die Gestaltung derart sein, dass das Abdeckelement 8 - insbesondere unmittelbar - mit dem Fassungselement 4 verbunden ist, vorzugsweise über eine Rastverbindung, insbesondere lediglich über die Rastverbindung. Durch die Bildung der Rastverbindung zwischen dem Abdeckelement 8 und dem Fassungselement 4 lässt sich das Abdeckelement 8 besonders einfach mit dem Fassungselement 4 verbinden. Advantageously, the design can be such that the cover element 8 - in particular directly - is connected to the socket element 4, preferably via a latching connection, in particular only via the latching connection. Due to the formation of the latching connection between the cover 8 and the socket element 4, the cover 8 can be particularly easily connected to the socket element 4.
In Fig. 6 ist das Fassungselement 4 im normalen Querschnitt skizziert gezeigt. Wie ersichtlich, ist im gezeigten Beispiel das Fassungselement 4 derart geformt, dass es im normalen Querschnitt betrachtet in erster Näherung eine H-Form aufweist, wobei die beiden oberen Hälften der Schenkel des H's die Schenkel 11 bilden, die den In Fig. 6, the socket element 4 is shown in the normal cross-section sketched. As can be seen, in the example shown, the socket element 4 is shaped such that, viewed in the normal cross-section, it has, in a first approximation, an H-shape, with the two upper halves of the legs of the H forming the legs 11, which
Randbereich 3 umfassen; die beiden unteren Hälften der Schenkel des H's umschreiben einen Aufnahmebereich für einen Randbereich 13 der Abdeckung 8. Der Aufnahmebereich kann dabei eine Rastnase 14 aufweisen, wobei der Randbereich 13 der Abdeckung 8 derart elastisch gestaltet ist, dass er sich zur Bildung der Border area 3 include; the two lower halves of the legs of the H describe a receiving area for an edge region 13 of the cover 8. The receiving area can have a latching lug 14, wherein the edge portion 13 of the cover 8 is designed so elastic that he is to form the
Rastverbindung zwischen dem Abdeckelement 8 und dem Fassungselement 4 verformt und von der Rastnase 14 gehalten wird. Locking connection between the cover 8 and the socket element 4 is deformed and held by the locking lug 14.
In Fig. 7 ist eine Variante des Fassungselements 4 gezeigt, bei der auf der Außenseite eine Dichtlippe 19 ausgebildet, beispielsweise angeformt ist. Diese Ausführung eignet sich besonders, wenn die Leuchte als Einbauleuchte konzipiert ist. Durch die In Fig. 7 a variant of the socket element 4 is shown, in which on the outside a sealing lip 19 is formed, for example, is formed. This version is particularly suitable when the luminaire is designed as a recessed luminaire. By the
Dichtlippe 19 lässt sich besonders geeignet ein dichter Abschluss mit dem Rand einer entsprechenden Einbauöffnung erzielen. Wie bereits erwähnt und in Fig. 3 beispielhaft skizziert, kann das Gehäuse 1 im normalen Querschnitt betrachtet in erster Näherung eine U-Form aufweisen, so dass es zwei U-Schenkel aufweist, wobei der Seitenwandbereich 6 durch den einen der beiden U-Schenkel gebildet ist. Die beiden U-Schenkel sind entsprechend der U-Form durch einen Verbindungsschenkel 15 miteinander verbunden. Sealing lip 19 is particularly suitable to achieve a tight seal with the edge of a corresponding mounting hole. As already mentioned and outlined by way of example in FIG. 3, the housing 1 may, in the normal cross-section, have, as a first approximation, a U-shape, so that it has two U-legs, wherein the sidewall region 6 is formed by the one of the two U-legs is. The two U-legs are connected to each other according to the U-shape by a connecting leg 15.
Vorzugsweise ist die Leuchte weiterhin mit Bezug auf eine, durch den Preferably, the luminaire is further with respect to one, through which
Verbindungsschenkel 15 verlaufende Mittelebene M auf der, dem Seitenwandbereich 6 gegenüberliegenden Seite analog gestaltet, insbesondere symmetrisch. Es kann also insbesondere ein entsprechend gestaltetes weiteres Fassungselement 4' vorgesehen sein, das einen entsprechenden weiteren Randbereich 3' fassend angeordnet ist. Connecting leg 15 extending median plane M on the side wall region 6 opposite side designed analog, in particular symmetrical. It can therefore be provided in particular a correspondingly designed further socket element 4 ', which is arranged a corresponding further edge region 3' summarizing.
In Fig. 4 ist das Gehäuse 1 mit dem Fassungselement 4 und dem weiteren In Fig. 4, the housing 1 with the socket element 4 and the other
Fassungselement 4' verbunden skizziert. Socket element 4 'connected sketched.
In Fig. 8 ist eine Skizze zu einer möglichen Gestaltung des Abdeckelements 8 gezeigt. Gemäß dieser Ausführung umfasst das Abdeckelement 8 einen, beispielsweise aus PMMA bestehenden mittleren Bereich 81, der vorzugsweise opal gestaltet ist und beispielsweise aus PMMA gefertigt ist. Der Randbereich 13 sowie der entsprechend analog gestaltete gegenüberliegende Randbereich 13' kann beispielsweise lichtdicht, vorzugsweise schwarz gestaltet sein. So lässt sich besonders geeignet eine präzise seitliche Begrenzung der Lichtlinie bewirken. Das Fassungselement 4 kann beispielsweise weiß gestaltet sein. Besonders gute mechanische Eigenschaften lassen sich dabei erzielen, wenn der mittlere Bereich 81 etwas weicher gestaltet ist als die beiden Randbereiche 13, 13'. FIG. 8 shows a sketch of a possible design of the cover element 8. According to this embodiment, the cover element 8 comprises a, for example made of PMMA middle region 81, which is preferably designed opal and is made for example of PMMA. The edge region 13 and the analogously designed opposite edge region 13 ', for example, light-tight, preferably be designed black. This makes it particularly suitable to effect a precise lateral boundary of the light line. The socket element 4 may be designed, for example, white. Particularly good mechanical properties can be achieved if the middle region 81 is somewhat softer than the two edge regions 13, 13 '.
Eine besonders geeignete Ausrichtung des Randbereichs 3 lässt sich weiterhin bewirken, wenn sich das Fassungselement 4 entlang der Längsrichtung L betrachtet zumindest im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Erstreckung des Gehäuses 1 bzw. der Leuchte erstreckt. So lässt sich insbesondere ein fugenloses Erscheinungsbild des Fassungselements bewirken. Dementsprechend ist das Fassungselement 4 A particularly suitable alignment of the edge region 3 can furthermore be achieved if the socket element 4 extends along the longitudinal direction L at least substantially over the entire extent of the housing 1 or the lamp. Thus, in particular, a seamless appearance of the socket element can be effected. Accordingly, the socket element 4
vorzugsweise als "Endlos "-Material konzipiert. Es kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, dass entlang der Längsrichtung L mehrere entsprechende Fassungselemente 4 in einer Reihe vorgesehen sind. Weiterhin vorzugsweise weist die Leuchte eine, beispielsweise in Fig. 4 skizzierte, Lichtquelle 9 auf, insbesondere in Form einer LED-Lichtquelle, die derart in dem Gehäuse 1 angeordnet ist, dass ein von der Lichtquelle 9 abgestrahltes Licht den Lichtaustrittsbereich 2 durchsetzend in einen Außenraum der Leuchte strahlt. Beispielsweise kann die Lichtquelle 9 an dem Verbindungsschenkel 15 gehalten angeordnet sein. In Fig. 5 ist eine perspektivische Ansicht des Gehäuses 1 mit den beiden Fassungselementen 4, 4', jedoch ohne das Abdeckelement 8 skizziert. Man erkennt die Anordnung der Lichtquelle 9 in dem durch das Gehäuse 1 gebildeten Innenraum der Leuchte. preferably designed as "endless" material. But it can also be provided that along the longitudinal direction L a plurality of corresponding socket elements 4 are provided in a row. Furthermore, the luminaire preferably has a light source 9, sketched for example in FIG. 4, in particular in the form of an LED light source, which is arranged in the housing 1 such that a light emitted by the light source 9 passes through the light exit region 2 into an outer space the lamp shines. For example, the light source 9 may be arranged held on the connecting leg 15. 5, a perspective view of the housing 1 with the two socket elements 4, 4 ', but without the cover 8 is sketched. It can be seen the arrangement of the light source 9 in the housing formed by the housing 1 of the lamp.
Vorzugsweise ist die Lichtquelle 9 durch mehrere LED-Einheiten gebildet, die sich entlang der Längsrichtung L in einer Reihe erstrecken, insbesondere gleichmäßig voneinander beabstandet. Der Abstand zwischen den LED-Einheiten kann dabei beispielsweise jeweils zwischen 2 und 10 cm betragen. Beispielsweise können die LED-Einheiten derart gestaltet sein, dass sie die Schutzart IP 68 erfüllen. Preferably, the light source 9 is formed by a plurality of LED units, which extend along the longitudinal direction L in a row, in particular evenly spaced from each other. The distance between the LED units can be, for example, between 2 and 10 cm. For example, the LED units may be designed to meet IP 68 protection.
Vorteilhaft können die LED-Einheiten, beispielswiese durch entsprechende Advantageously, the LED units, for example, by appropriate
Linsenelemente, derart gestaltet sein, dass das abgegebene Licht in einem Lichtkegel abgegeben wird, der sich entlang der Längsrichtung L weiter erstreckt als quer zur Längsrichtung L, also sozusagen in Längsrichtung L aufgeweitet. Lens elements, be designed such that the emitted light is emitted in a cone of light which extends along the longitudinal direction L further than transversely to the longitudinal direction L, so to speak expanded in the longitudinal direction L.
