Definitions

  • the invention relates to a set for a modular lamp arrangement, a lamp arrangement, a lamp and a method for realizing a lamp arrangement using a set according to the invention.
  • Generic sets have several elongated lamp modules, which can be connected to one another and fixed relative to one another to create a lamp arrangement.
  • the luminaire modules have a modular structure so that they can be used in a wide range of applications.
  • the lamp modules are connected in that they each have a module end section at their module ends, which is designed to be connected to a module end section of a subsequent lamp module.
  • the lighting modules are electrically connected to each other.
  • generic lamp modules are often fixed in their positions in relation to one another directly adjacent to one another, with fastening means on their module end sections, such as one or more abutment and/or counter-abutment sections, retaining springs, fastening screws and/or the like.
  • two lamp modules can be connected to one another to form a lamp arrangement that is in an operating position, in particular with the lamp modules being fixed to one another in a force-fitting and/or form-fitting manner, with the lamp arrangement also being able to be changed easily and cost-effectively at a later date by means of a modular design using the lamp modules.
  • Generic lighting modules often have a device carrier to which various electrical functional elements are attached, such as circuit boards with light sources, in particular LEDs, operating devices, radio modules, optical elements, such as diffusers, reflectors and / or lens elements.
  • the lamp modules often include a light exit area from which light generated by the light sources can emerge from the lamp module.
  • the light source is usually shielded from the surroundings, so that the lamp module has a translucent area.
  • generic lighting modules can be electrically connected to one another in such a way that energy supply and control of the lighting modules of a generic lighting arrangement is made possible by a common central energy supply or control.
  • at least one mechanical adapter element that is separate from the lamp modules is usually inserted into receptacles of the lamp modules that correspond to the adapter element and is fixed to these, for example by means of screws, pins or snap hooks.
  • at least one electrical adapter element is often inserted into an industry-standard plug-in device of the first and second lighting modules.

Generic sets are also often unsuitable for use without additional devices in environments in which dirt and liquids, such as dust and water, can come into contact with the interconnected lighting modules.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Set für eine modulare Leuchtenanordnung, eine Leuchtenanordnung, eine Leuchte sowie ein Verfahren zur Realisierung einer Leuchtenanordnung mittels eines erfindungsgemäßen Sets.The invention relates to a set for a modular lamp arrangement, a lamp arrangement, a lamp and a method for realizing a lamp arrangement using a set according to the invention.

Gattungsgemäße Sets weisen mehrere langgestreckte Leuchtenmodule auf, die zu Realisierung einer Leuchtenanordnung miteinander verbindbar und relativ zueinander festlegbar sind. Die Leuchtenmodule sind modular aufgebaut, um in einem breiten Anwendungsspektrum einsetzbar zu sein. Typischerweise werden die Leuchtenmodule dadurch verbunden, dass an sie an ihren Modulenden jeweils einen Modulendabschnitt aufweisen, der ausgebildet ist, mit einem Modulendabschnitt eines anschließenden Leuchtenmoduls verbunden zu werden. Dabei werden die Leuchtenmodule miteinander elektrisch verbunden. Weiterhin sind gattungsgemäße Leuchtenmodule häufig direkt aneinander anliegend in ihren Positionen zueinander festgelegt, wobei sie an ihren Modulendabschnitten Befestigungsmittel, wie beispielsweise einen oder mehrere Anlage- und/oder Gegenanlageabschnitte, Haltefedern, Befestigungsschrauben und/oder dergleichen aufweisen. Mittels der Modulendabschnitte sind zwei Leuchtenmodule zu einer sich in einer Betriebsposition befindlichen Leuchtenanordnung miteinander verbindbar, insbesondere unter kraft- und/oder formschlüssiger Festlegung der Leuchtenmodule zueinander, wobei die Leuchtenanordnung durch eine modulare Bauweise mittels der Leuchtenmodule auch nachträglich einfach und kostengünstig veränderbar ist. Gattungsgemäße Leuchtenmodule weisen häufig einen Geräteträger auf, an dem verschiedene elektrische Funktionselemente befestigt sind, wie beispielsweise Platinen mit Lichtquellen, insbesondere LEDs, Betriebsgeräte, Funkmodule, optische Elemente, wie beispielsweise Diffusoren, Reflektoren und/oder Linsenelemente. Die Leuchtenmodule umfassen häufig einen Lichtaustrittbereich, aus dem von den Lichtquellen erzeugtes Licht aus dem Leuchtenmodul austreten kann. Dabei ist die Lichtquelle meist von der Umgebung abgeschirmt, sodass das Leuchtenmodul einen lichtdurchlässig gestalteten Bereich aufweist. In vielen Ausführungen sind gattungsgemäße Leuchtenmodule derart miteinander elektrisch verbindbar, dass eine Energieversorgung und Ansteuerung der Leuchtenmodule einer gattungsgemäßen Leuchtenanordnung durch eine gemeinsame zentrale Energieversorgung bzw. Steuerung ermöglicht ist. Für die mechanische Verbindung wird meist zumindest ein von den Leuchtenmodulen separates mechanisches Adapterelement in zu dem Adapterelement korrespondierend ausgeführte Aufnahmen der Leuchtenmodule eingeführt und an diesen beispielsweise mittels Schrauben, Stiften oder Schnapphaken festgelegt. Für die elektrische Verbindung wird häufig mindestens ein elektrisches Adapterelement in eine branchenübliche Steckeinrichtung des ersten und des zweiten Leuchtenmoduls eingeführt.Generic sets have several elongated lamp modules, which can be connected to one another and fixed relative to one another to create a lamp arrangement. The luminaire modules have a modular structure so that they can be used in a wide range of applications. Typically, the lamp modules are connected in that they each have a module end section at their module ends, which is designed to be connected to a module end section of a subsequent lamp module. The lighting modules are electrically connected to each other. Furthermore, generic lamp modules are often fixed in their positions in relation to one another directly adjacent to one another, with fastening means on their module end sections, such as one or more abutment and/or counter-abutment sections, retaining springs, fastening screws and/or the like. By means of the module end sections, two lamp modules can be connected to one another to form a lamp arrangement that is in an operating position, in particular with the lamp modules being fixed to one another in a force-fitting and/or form-fitting manner, with the lamp arrangement also being able to be changed easily and cost-effectively at a later date by means of a modular design using the lamp modules. Generic lighting modules often have a device carrier to which various electrical functional elements are attached, such as circuit boards with light sources, in particular LEDs, operating devices, radio modules, optical elements, such as diffusers, reflectors and / or lens elements. The lamp modules often include a light exit area from which light generated by the light sources can emerge from the lamp module. The light source is usually shielded from the surroundings, so that the lamp module has a translucent area. In many embodiments, generic lighting modules can be electrically connected to one another in such a way that energy supply and control of the lighting modules of a generic lighting arrangement is made possible by a common central energy supply or control. For the mechanical connection, at least one mechanical adapter element that is separate from the lamp modules is usually inserted into receptacles of the lamp modules that correspond to the adapter element and is fixed to these, for example by means of screws, pins or snap hooks. For the electrical connection, at least one electrical adapter element is often inserted into an industry-standard plug-in device of the first and second lighting modules.

Nachteilig ist, dass die gattungsgemäßen Leuchtenmodule durch die vielen verschiedenen erforderlichen Teile, die zum Verbinden der Leuchtenmodule dienen, besonders aufwendig zu montieren sind. Da diese Leuchtenmodule üblicherweise an Decken, die mehrere Meter von einem trittsicheren Boden beabstandet sind, in einer schwer zu erreichenden Lage anzuordnen und zu montieren sind, ist eine Montage weiterhin zeitintensiv und zudem gefährlich durchzuführen. Gattungsgemäße Sets sind zudem häufig ungeeignet, ohne zusätzliche Vorrichtungen in Umgebungen eingesetzt zu werden, in denen Schmutz und Flüssigkeiten, wie Staub und Wasser, in Kontakt mit den miteinander verbundenen Leuchtenmodulen gelangen können. Die Verbindungsstellen zwischen den Leuchtenmodulen weisen aufgrund der komplizierten gattungsgemäßen Verbindungsarten häufig eine mangelhafte Dichtigkeit gegenüber derartigen Umwelteinflüssen auf, sodass Schmutz, Feuchtigkeit und Flüssigkeiten in die Leuchte gelangen und diese beschädigen können. Die Erfindung bezieht sich im besonderen Maße zumindest auch auf solche abgedichteten Leuchten bzw. Leuchtenanordnungen. Beispielsweise ist aus dem Dokument DE 101 39 336 A1 ein Set für eine modulare Leuchtenanordnung bekannt, bei dem zwei benachbarte Leuchtenmodule zueinander korrespondierende elektrische Steckeinrichtungen aufweisen, wobei eines der Leuchtenmodule als Fixiervorrichtung eine Spannschraube aufweist und das andere der Leuchtenmodule als Fixiereinrichtung einen Spannstift aufweist, wobei die Leuchtenmodule aneinander fixiert werden, indem die Spannschraube an dem Spannstift angreift und durch Drehen der Spannschraube der Spannstift in eine solche Richtung gezogen wird, dass die Leuchtenmodule aneinander gepresst gehalten sind. Aus DE 10 2018 120 873 A1 ist ein modulares Gehäuse bekannt, das an seinen Enden jeweils zwei elektrische Steckverbinder aufweist, auf die jeweils ein korrespondierender elektrischer Gegensteckverbinder aufgesteckt werden kann, wobei zu jedem Steckverbinder ein Verriegelungsbügel zum Verriegeln eines korrespondierenden Gegensteckverbinders vorgesehen ist. Aus CN 109268715 A ist ein Set für eine modulare Leuchtenanordnung bekannt, das ein Leuchtenmodul aufweist, an dessen Enden eine Leuchtenmodulabdeckung mit elektrischen Anschlüssen abgedichtet aufgesteckt werden kann, wobei diese Leuchtenabdeckung durch einen Rastverschluss an dem Leuchtenmodul gehalten werden kann. Aus US 2015/0177439 A1 ist ein Set für eine modulare Leuchtenanordnung bekannt, bei dem zwei benachbarte Leuchtenmodule aneinander fixiert werden können, indem eine Halteklammer, die die beiden Leuchtenmodule jeweils mit einem Abschnitt hintergreift, an eines der Leuchtenmodule geschraubt wird. Aus EP 2957814 A1 ist ein Set für eine Leuchtenanordnung bekannt, das mehrere Modulgehäusekörper aufweist, die jeweils einen Trägerkörper umfassen, der Seitenwände des jeweiligen Modulgehäusekörpers miteinander verbindet, wobei zwei benachbarte Modulgehäusekörper durch zueinander korrespondierende Fixiereinrichtungen mittels Betätigung eines Drahtbügels aneinander fixiert werden können. Aus KR 2010 0094906 A ist ein Set für eine modulare Leuchtenanordnung bekannt, bei der zwei benachbarte Leuchtenmodule über eine Rastverbindung miteinander verbunden werden können.The disadvantage is that the generic lighting modules are particularly difficult to assemble due to the many different parts required to connect the lighting modules. Since these luminaire modules are usually to be arranged and installed on ceilings that are several meters away from a non-slip floor, in a position that is difficult to reach, assembly is still time-consuming and dangerous to carry out. Generic sets are also often unsuitable for use without additional devices in environments in which dirt and liquids, such as dust and water, can come into contact with the interconnected lighting modules. Due to the complicated generic connection types, the connection points between the lamp modules often have a poor seal against such environmental influences, so that dirt, moisture and liquids can get into the lamp and damage it.

Insbesondere ist durch die Festlegung von Anlageabschnitt und Gegenanlageabschnitt die Relationsposition der beiden ersten Modulendabschnitte zueinander festgelegt. Die Montageposition bezeichnet dabei eine definierte Position der Bestandteile der Leuchtenanordnung zueinander. Insbesondere sind ausgehend von der Montageposition Anlageabschnitt und Gegenanlageabschnitt entlang der Längsrichtung bewegbar, so dass ihre Relativposition entlang der Längsrichtung nicht durch das Zusammenwirken von Anlagefläche und Gegenanlagefläche festgelegt ist. Insbesondere sind in der Montageposition Anlageabschnitt und Gegenanlageabschnitt um eine Achse, die senkrecht zur Querrichtung verläuft, insbesondere in Längsrichtung verläuft, verdrehsicher festgelegt, sodass vorzugsweise der Anlageabschnitt und der Gegenanlageabschnitt in zumindest drei, insbesondere fünf Freiheitsgraden zueinander festgelegt sind. Bevorzugt sind die Anlagefläche und die Gegenanlagefläche ausschließlich durch eine durchgehende, insbesondere eindimensionale Bewegung, insbesondere in Längsrichtung, des ersten Leuchtenmoduls und des zweiten Leuchtenmoduls zueinander, insbesondere unter Realisierung der Montageposition miteinander in Kontakt bringbar. Dabei wird Bezug genommen auf die dem ersten Modulendabschnitt des ersten Leuchtenmoduls zugeordnete Längsrichtung, wobei bevorzugt die Längsrichtungen der beiden ersten Modulendabschnitte der beiden Leuchtenmodule zunächst parallel zueinander auszurichten sind, bevor die Leuchtenmodule durch die Bewegung und das in Kontakt Bringen von Anlagefläche und Gegenanlagefläche miteinander verbindbar sind. Der erste Modulendabschnitt des ersten Leuchtenmoduls und der erste Modulendabschnitt des zweiten Leuchtenmoduls weisen zueinander korrespondierend ausgebildete elektrische Steckeinrichtungen auf. Die Steckeinrichtungen sind miteinander verbindbar. Vorzugsweise sind die Steckeinrichtungen miteinander durch eine eindimensionale, insbesondere entlang der Längsrichtung gerichtete Bewegung verbindbar. Vorzugsweise sind Gegenanlageabschnitt und Anlageabschnitt einerseits und die Steckeinrichtungen andererseits durch eine einzige Bewegung der Leuchtenmodule zueinander gleichzeitig zumindest mechanisch verbindbar. Unter flächigem Kontakt zwischen Anlagefläche und Gegenanlagefläche ist vorzugsweise ein unmittelbarer Kontakt zu verstehen, wobei sich Anlagefläche und Gegenanlagefläche an mehreren Punkten, die von einander beabstandet sind, berühren.The set according to the invention for a lighting arrangement includes a plurality of lamp modules, each of which extends elongated between two module ends, in particular along a longitudinal direction. The lighting modules preferably each have an extension, with which they extend between their module ends, the extent of which is preferably straight, but can also be curved, for example. The luminaire modules have a cross section perpendicular to the extension at every point along the extension, with particularly preferably the luminaire modules having an interior which is over at least 80%, in particular at least 90%, in particular at least 95% of the extension length along the extension in a plane perpendicular to the Extension is completely closed, for example by a housing section or another wall section of the lighting module. The lamp modules are preferably designed to be elongated in such a way that they extend over an extension length along the extension between their module ends, which is larger, in particular at least twice as large, in particular at least four times as large, than any vertical extension resulting for each position along the extension to the extent, so that at each position along the extent, the maximum extent perpendicular to the extent is smaller, in particular at most half as large, in particular at most a quarter as large, than the extension length of the module along the extent. The module ends of the lamp modules are each formed by a module end section. In particular, the lighting modules each have at least one module end section, preferably two module end sections, by means of which the lighting modules can be connected to one another to create a mounting position. A first lighting module and a second lighting module, in particular each of the lighting modules of the set, has at least a first module end section. The first module end sections are designed to correspond to one another. In particular forms the first module end section also extends all ends of the lamp module perpendicular to the extension over its extension along the extension. Each module end section is preferably assigned a longitudinal direction, which corresponds to the direction of the extension at the module end formed by the respective module end section, whereby the longitudinal directions of two module end sections, between which the respective lighting module extends, can run identically, parallel. The first module end section of the first lighting module has a contact section. The first module end section of the second lighting module has a counter-contact section. The abutment section and the counter-contact section are designed to correspond to one another, and in particular they are designed to be joined to one another in a form-fitting, preferably detachable manner, with one of the abutment section and the counter-contact section preferably running all the way around the other, in particular encompassing it. The contact section forms a contact surface and the counter-contact section forms a counter-surface, with the contact surface and counter-contact surface being designed to rest against one another in a mounting position with flat contact, whereby a relative position of the contact section and the counter-contact section to one another along at least one transverse direction, which lies in a transverse plane, in particular in all directions defined by the transverse plane. The transverse plane is perpendicular to the. In particular, the relational position of the two first module end sections to one another is determined by defining the contact section and the counter-support section. The mounting position refers to a defined position of the components of the lighting arrangement relative to one another. In particular, starting from the assembly position The contact section and the counter-contact section can be moved along the longitudinal direction, so that their relative position along the longitudinal direction is not determined by the interaction of the contact surface and the counter-contact surface. In particular, in the assembly position, the contact section and the counter-contact section are secured against rotation about an axis that runs perpendicular to the transverse direction, in particular in the longitudinal direction, so that preferably the contact section and the counter-contact section are fixed to one another in at least three, in particular five, degrees of freedom. Preferably, the contact surface and the counter-contact surface can be brought into contact with one another exclusively by a continuous, in particular one-dimensional movement, in particular in the longitudinal direction, of the first lamp module and the second lamp module, in particular while realizing the assembly position. Reference is made here to the longitudinal direction assigned to the first module end section of the first lamp module, wherein preferably the longitudinal directions of the two first module end sections of the two lamp modules must first be aligned parallel to one another before the lamp modules can be connected to one another by moving and bringing the contact surface and counter-contact surface into contact .

The plug-in devices can be connected to one another. Preferably, the plug-in devices can be connected to one another by a one-dimensional movement, in particular along the longitudinal direction. Preferably, the counter-contact section and the abutment section on the one hand and the plug-in devices on the other hand are at least simultaneously connected to one another by a single movement of the lamp modules mechanically connectable. Flat contact between the contact surface and the counter-contact surface is preferably understood to mean direct contact, with the contact surface and the counter-contact surface touching at several points that are spaced apart from one another.

Das erste Leuchtenmodul weist eine Fixiervorrichtung auf, die zu dem Anlageabschnitt beweglich gelagert ist. Insbesondere ist die Fixiervorrichtung relativ zu der Steckeinrichtung, insbesondere zu dem Anlageabschnitt, insbesondere zu dem ersten Modulendabschnitt des ersten Leuchtenmoduls beweglich gelagert. Insbesondere ist die Fixiervorrichtung drehbeweglich, vorzugsweise um eine Achse, die senkrecht zur Längsrichtung verläuft, zu dem Anlageabschnitt, insbesondere zu der Steckeinrichtung gelagert. Die Fixiervorrichtung ist mittels einer Gleitlagerverbindung zu dem Anlageabschnitt beweglich gelagert. Die Fixiervorrichtung ist vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff und/oder Metall, insbesondere als Blech- und/oder als Spritzgussteil ausgeführt. Das zweite Leuchtenmodul weist eine Fixiereinrichtung auf, die insbesondere relativ zu dem Gegenanlageabschnitt festgelegt ist, wobei ausgehend von der Montageposition die Fixiereinrichtung relativ zur Fixiervorrichtung beweglich ist, insbesondere während Anlageabschnitt und Gegenanlageabschnitt unbewegt in ihrer Relativposition zueinander verharren, die sie in der Montageposition innehaben. Insbesondere ist die Fixiervorrichtung zu dem Anlageabschnitt lösbar gelagert, wobei insbesondere die Lagerung durch ein elastisches Verformen der Fixiervorrichtung und/oder des Fixierabschnitts lösbar ist. Die Fixiervorrichtung ist ausgehend von der Montageposition mittels einer Bewegung, insbesondere einer Drehbewegung, insbesondere einer Verrastungsbewegung relativ zur Fixiereinrichtung in Eingriff bringbar unter Realisierung einer Betriebsposition. Der flächige Kontakt zwischen der Anlagefläche und der Gegenanlagefläche ist während dieser Bewegung aufrechterhalten. Vorzugsweise ist die Fixiervorrichtung ausgehend von der Betriebsposition mittels einer insbesondere gleichen, entgegengerichteten Bewegung relativ zur Fixiereinrichtung aus dem Eingriff bringbar, insbesondere unter Realisierung der Montageposition. Insbesondere erfolgt während der Bewegung der Fixiervorrichtung relativ zur Fixiereinrichtung unter Realisierung der Betriebsposition eine Relativbewegung, insbesondere eine Gleitbewegung zwischen der Anlagefläche und der Gegenanlagefläche zueinander und insbesondere der korrespondierenden elektrischen Steckeinrichtungen zueinander, insbesondere entlang der Längsrichtung. Die korrespondierenden Steckeinrichtungen sind in der Betriebsposition elektrisch leitend verbunden. Insbesondere weisen die Steckeinrichtungen jeweils mehrere, voneinander insbesondere senkrecht zur Längsrichtung des jeweiligen Modulendabschnitts beabstandete, galvanisch getrennte Kontaktstellen auf. Bevorzugt werden die korrespondierenden Steckeinrichtungen während der Bewegung der Fixiervorrichtung relativ zur Fixiereinrichtung zur Realisierung der Betriebsposition ausgehend von der Montageposition mit zumindest einigen ihrer Kontaktstellen elektrisch leitend verbunden, alternativ sind sie bereits im Montagezustand elektrisch leitend verbunden. Insbesondere wird während der Bewegung ein hemmender Kraftschluss zwischen den Steckereinrichtungen erzeugt. Insbesondere sind die korrespondierenden Steckereinrichtungen ausgebildet, zwischen einander elektrische Informationssignale und Versorgungsleistung zu übertragen. In der Betriebsposition ist durch den Eingriff der Fixiervorrichtung mit der Fixiereinrichtung eine Relativposition der Leuchtenmodule in einer Längsrichtung festgelegt. Die Längsrichtung verläuft senkrecht zur Querrichtung, wobei bevorzugt die Längsrichtung dem ersten Modulendabschnitt des ersten Leuchtenmoduls zugeordnet ist. Insbesondere ist in der Betriebsposition zwischen der Fixiervorrichtung und der Fixiereinrichtung eine Haltekraft in Längsrichtung wirksam, wobei die Fixiereinrichtung und die Fixiervorrichtung durch die Haltekraft aneinander angelegt sind. Bevorzugt sind durch den Eingriff von Fixiereinrichtung und Fixiervorrichtung die zueinander weisenden, durch die ersten Modulendabschnitte ausgebildeten Stirnseiten der beiden Leuchtenmodule in Längsrichtung gegeneinander gepresst. Vorzugsweise ist die Fixiereinrichtung und/oder die Fixiervorrichtung elektrisch isolierend ausgebildet, sodass durch diese kein von dem jeweiligen Leuchtenmodul übertragenes elektrisches Signal leitbar ist. Insbesondere sind das erste und das zweite Leuchtenmodul in der Betriebsposition zueinander formschlüssig festgelegt, insbesondere dergestalt, dass ein Verdrehen und/oder ein Verschieben zueinander vermieden ist. Das erfindungsgemäße Set kann weitere Merkmale aufweisen, die aus den Erläuterungen gattungsgemäßer Sets ersichtlich sind.The first lamp module has a fixing device which is mounted movably relative to the contact section. In particular, the fixing device is movably mounted relative to the plug-in device, in particular to the contact section, in particular to the first module end section of the first lamp module. In particular, the fixing device is rotatably mounted, preferably about an axis that runs perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, to the contact section, in particular to the plug-in device. The fixing device is movably mounted to the contact section by means of a plain bearing connection. The fixing device is preferably made of plastic and/or metal, in particular as a sheet metal and/or injection molded part. The second lamp module has a fixing device which is fixed in particular relative to the counter-contact section, the fixing device being movable relative to the fixing device starting from the assembly position, in particular while the abutment section and the counter-contact section remain stationary in their relative position to one another, which they hold in the assembly position. In particular, the fixing device is mounted in a detachable manner relative to the contact section, wherein in particular the mounting can be detached by elastically deforming the fixing device and/or the fixing section. The fixing device is, starting from the assembly position, by means of a movement, in particular a rotary movement, in particular a latching movement, relative to the fixing device Intervention can be brought to realize an operating position. The surface contact between the contact surface and the counter-contact surface is maintained during this movement. Preferably, the fixing device can be brought out of engagement relative to the fixing device, starting from the operating position, in particular by means of a similar, opposite movement, in particular while realizing the assembly position. In particular, during the movement of the fixing device relative to the fixing device while realizing the operating position, a relative movement, in particular a sliding movement, takes place between the contact surface and the counter-contact surface to one another and in particular the corresponding electrical plug-in devices to one another, in particular along the longitudinal direction. The corresponding plug-in devices are electrically connected in the operating position. In particular, the plug-in devices each have a plurality of galvanically separated contact points that are spaced apart from one another, in particular perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the respective module end section. Preferably, the corresponding plug-in devices are electrically conductively connected to at least some of their contact points during the movement of the fixing device relative to the fixing device to realize the operating position starting from the assembly position; alternatively, they are already electrically conductively connected in the assembled state. In particular, an inhibiting frictional connection is generated between the plug devices during the movement. In particular, the corresponding plug devices are designed to transmit electrical information signals and supply power between each other. In the operating position, the engagement of the fixing device with the fixing device results in a relative position of the lamp modules a longitudinal direction. The longitudinal direction runs perpendicular to the transverse direction, with the longitudinal direction preferably being assigned to the first module end section of the first lighting module. In particular, in the operating position between the fixing device and the fixing device, a holding force is effective in the longitudinal direction, with the fixing device and the fixing device being applied to one another by the holding force. Preferably, due to the engagement of the fixing device and the fixing device, the mutually facing end faces of the two lamp modules formed by the first module end sections are pressed against one another in the longitudinal direction. Preferably, the fixing device and/or the fixing device is designed to be electrically insulating, so that no electrical signal transmitted by the respective lighting module can be conducted through them. In particular, the first and second lighting modules are fixed to one another in a form-fitting manner in the operating position, in particular in such a way that twisting and/or displacement relative to one another is avoided. The set according to the invention can have further features that can be seen from the explanations of generic sets.

Das erfindungsgemäße Set bringt im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Sets für Leuchtenanordnungen wesentliche Vorteile mit sich. Denn durch das Set ist es ermöglicht, eine Leuchtenanordnung ohne zusätzliches Adapterelemente und damit mit einer relativ geringen Anzahl an Teilen zu realisieren. Dadurch ist eine besonders kostengünstige Herstellung des Sets ermöglicht. Die Leuchtenmodule sind an ihren Modulendabschnitten mittels einer einfachen Bewegung verbindbar. Dadurch ist zum einen die erforderliche Montagezeit zum Verbinden der Leuchtenmodule des Sets unter Realisierung der Betriebsposition und zum anderen die Arbeitssicherheit erheblich verbessert, da die zur Realisierung der Betriebsposition erforderlichen Arbeitsschritte auf einfache Bewegungen reduziert ist. Die modulare Gestaltung der Leuchtenmodule des Sets lässt es weiterhin zu, verschiedene Leuchtenmodule mit verschiedenen Längen und Eigenschaften zu unterschiedlichsten Anordnungen zu verbinden, ohne die Leuchtenmodule an die Umgebung anzupassen. So kann es allgemein gewünscht sein, zwischen Leuchtenmodulen, die mittels einer Lichtquelle Licht emittieren, ein Leuchtenmodul anzuordnen, welches weitere elektrische Komponenten, wie drahtlose Kommunikationsschnittstellen, Betriebsgeräte und/oder Sensoren und insbesondere keine Lichtquellen aufweist. Dadurch, dass sich Fixiervorrichtung und Fixiereinrichtung in der Betriebsposition im Eingriff befinden, sind die miteinander verbundenen Leuchtenmodule fest aneinander gehalten gegen ein versehentliches Lösen gesichert. Allgemein kann natürlich zumindest ein Leuchtenmodul einen Modulendabschnitt aufweisen, der nicht dazu ausgebildet ist, mit einem Modulendabschnitt eines weiteren Leuchtenmoduls verbunden zu werden. Dadurch ist es ermöglicht, Endabschnitte der Leuchtenanordnung in optisch ansprechender Weise zu gestalten, die weiterhin zusätzliche Eigenschaften aufweisen können, wie beispielsweise Leitungszuführungen, dekorative Endabschnittselemente, oder Befestigungsmöglichkeiten an in der Umgebung der Leuchtenanordnung befindlichen Elementen. Durch die erfindungsgemäße einfache und kompakte Gestaltung ist es außerdem möglich, erhöhte Dichtigkeitsanforderungen zu erfüllen, wie sie in Feuchtraumanwendungen oder auch in Reinraumanwendungen gefordert sind.The set according to the invention has significant advantages compared to conventional sets for lighting arrangements. The set makes it possible to create a lighting arrangement without additional adapter elements and therefore with a relatively small number of parts. This enables the set to be manufactured particularly cost-effectively. The lamp modules can be connected at their module end sections by means of a simple movement. This means, on the one hand, the assembly time required to connect the lighting modules of the set to achieve the operating position and, on the other hand, the Occupational safety is significantly improved because the work steps required to realize the operating position are reduced to simple movements. The modular design of the lighting modules in the set also allows different lighting modules with different lengths and properties to be connected to form a wide variety of arrangements without having to adapt the lighting modules to the surroundings. Thus, it may generally be desirable to arrange a lamp module between lamp modules that emit light by means of a light source, which has further electrical components, such as wireless communication interfaces, operating devices and/or sensors and in particular no light sources. Because the fixing device and fixing device are in engagement in the operating position, the interconnected lamp modules are held firmly together and secured against accidental loosening. In general, of course, at least one lighting module can have a module end section that is not designed to be connected to a module end section of a further lighting module. This makes it possible to design end sections of the lamp arrangement in a visually appealing manner, which can also have additional properties, such as cable feeds, decorative end section elements, or fastening options to elements located in the vicinity of the lamp arrangement. The simple and compact design according to the invention also makes it possible to meet increased tightness requirements, such as those required in wet room applications or in clean room applications.

Die Teilbewegungen können gleichzeitig ausführbar sein. Die Teilbewegungen können gekoppelt sein, so dass beide Teilbewegungen nur gemeinsam ausführbar sind, beispielsweise indem eine starre Verbindung zwischen den Fixiereinrichtungsabschnitten und eine weitere starre Verbindung zwischen den Fixiervorrichtungsabschnitten vorgesehen ist. Eine der Teilbewegungen oder jede Teilbewegung kann eine Rotation, eine Translation oder einer überlagerte Rotation und Translation umfassen. Insbesondere werden die Fixiereinrichtungsabschnitte und/oder die Fixiervorrichtungsabschnitte ausgehend von der Montageposition unter Realisierung der Betriebsposition relativ zueinander, insbesondere aneinander, elastisch verformt.

Insbesondere ist zumindest einer der Fixiereinrichtungsabschnitte relativ zum Gegenanlageabschnitt unbeweglich.In a preferred embodiment, the fixing device has at least two Fixing device sections.

In particular, the movement of the fixing device relative to the fixing device is in the manner of a push crank or a crank loop. In particular, the movement is a rigid body movement without a movement-relevant deformation of the fixing device and/or the fixing device. In particular, a one-dimensional movement describes a movement about a rotation axis or pivot axis or along a movement axis. In particular, the movement can be carried out in only one direction of movement starting from the assembly position and is blocked in the direction of movement when the operating position is reached.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist der erste Modulendabschnitt des ersten und des zweiten Leuchtenmoduls jeweils eine Stützfläche auf, wobei die Stützflächen der Leuchtenmodule in der Betriebsposition aneinander anliegen, insbesondere aneinander gepresst sind, insbesondere in Längsrichtung aneinander gepresst sind.
