Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To thin sockets, and thin a luminaire thereby by providing the sockets in which annular lamps are installed, and arranging plural electric wire inserting ports in the almost parallel direction to an installing surface in the almost tangent direction of a lamp cylinder in the sockets. SOLUTION: Sockets 5A and 5B respectively corresponding to respective annular lamps 3A and 3B are installed in an under surface position of a luminaire main body 1 symmetric to positions of respective lamp holding parts 4A and 4B. A part of the sockets 5A and 5B containing a pin inserting part 6 and a lamp support spring respectively arranged in the sockets 5A and 5B, is exposed under a reflecting plate 2 from an opening 8 of the reflecting plate 2. In a socket body, an electric wire inserting port is opened in one side surface of the body 11 so that a connecting electric wire 14 can be pulled out in the lamp circumferential direction to one side surface orthogonal to the axial direction of a lamp tube body. The socket 5A and 5B are fixed to the main body 1 by screw-fitting a socket installing screw to an installing hole of the main body 1 through an inserting hole and an inserting hole bored in the center of the lamp support spring 21.

2. Description of the Related Art Some lighting fixtures to which a ring-shaped lamp (ring-shaped fluorescent lamp) is attached employ a socket 5 (see FIG. 7) as shown in Registered Design No. 958287. As shown in FIG. 8, the socket 5 is located in the center direction of the ring-shaped lamp in which the electric wire insertion direction is mounted, and can be reduced in size as a lighting fixture. Inclined. Therefore, the mounting direction of the socket 5 to the appliance main body 1 is limited, and the mounting in a state where the socket 5 is rotated by 180 degrees in FIG. 8 cannot be performed.
There is a drawback that the direction of the wire insertion port is limited to one direction, and the length of the connection wire 14 becomes longer depending on the position of the stabilizer 10.

Some sockets corresponding to screw-in type lamps have electric wire insertion ports provided on both side surfaces of the socket. Further, in the socket for a one-base lamp disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-49089, there is a socket having an electric wire insertion port on two orthogonal surfaces of the socket. Each of these sockets requires an electric wire drawing space in addition to the projection surface of the lamp, and in the latter case, if the surface where the electric wire insertion port is provided is the mounting surface side, the electric wire drawing space is required. As a result, there has been a problem that the socket height is increased.

In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, a plurality of lamp pins project in a direction substantially perpendicular to the lamp surface, and the lamp pins are substantially symmetrical with respect to the diameter of the lamp. A socket in which a ring-shaped lamp having a lamp base portion arranged in the socket is mounted, and the socket is provided with a plurality of wire insertion openings in a direction substantially parallel to the mounting surface in a direction substantially tangential to the circumference of the lamp. As a result, the socket can be made thinner, and as a result, the lighting fixture can be made thinner. Moreover, since the wire insertion port is substantially tangential to the circumference of the lamp, the lighting is arranged inside the lamp outer diameter. Since the lighting device can have a fixture structure, the size of the lighting device can be reduced. Further, since the wire insertion port is in a direction substantially parallel to the mounting surface and in a direction substantially tangential to the circumference of the lamp, one socket can be used.
It can be attached by being rotated by 80 degrees, and the connecting wires to the ballast and the like can be shortened.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a ring-shaped lamp having a lamp base having a plurality of lamp pins projecting in a direction substantially perpendicular to the lamp surface and the lamp pins being arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the diameter of the lamp. It is equipped with a socket to be mounted, characterized in that the socket is provided with a plurality of electric wire insertion ports in a direction substantially parallel to the mounting surface in a direction substantially tangential to the circumference of the lamp, so that the socket can be thinned, and as a result, a lighting fixture It is possible to achieve a thin lighting fixture structure, and since the wire insertion port is in a direction substantially tangential to the circumference of the lamp, a lighting fixture structure in which components are arranged inside the lamp outer diameter can be used. In addition, since the wire insertion port is in a direction substantially parallel to the mounting surface and in a direction substantially tangential to the circumference of the lamp, the socket can be rotated by 180 degrees for mounting, and the connection wire to the ballast or the like can be shortened. There is an effect that can be.
