Abstract

The aquarium lid consists of a glass or plastic plate, to which are firmly stuck plastic clips over the tubes, and cable casings. Plastic pieces with sockets take each end of a fluorescent tube which is pressed into them so that each end is water-proof. The fluorescent tubes can be easily changed. The cable is inserted into the socket in such a way that there is no tension on, or twisting of, the cable. The power units are in a separate box. The lid is not hinged, and rests loosely on the aquarium.

Description

  

  
 



   Die Erfindung betrifft eine Aquarium-Deckenbeleuchtungsanlage, die wasserdicht ausgebildet ist und aus rostfreien Werkstoffen besteht.



   Die bekannten Deckenbeleuchtungen für Aquarien bestehen nicht aus 100% rostfreien und ozonfesten Stoffen.



   Beleuchtungsanlagen dieser Art sind anfällig für Korrosion.



   Zu den Nachteilen bekannter Anlagen zählen vor allem die Reparaturanfälligkeit, die geringe Lebensdauer, die mangelnde Sicherheit und die ungenügende spektrale Energieverteilung.



   Die Erfindung bezweckt diese und andere Nachteile zu beseitigen.



   Im folgenden wird anhand der Zeichnung ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung näher beschrieben.



   Es zeigen:
Fig. 1 eine Ansicht von aussen,
Fig. 2 ein Schnittbild und
Fig. 3 ein Schnittbild der   Deckelauflage    mit Kabelloch.



   Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Deckenbeleuchtung besteht aus einer Glas- oder Kunststoffplatte a, Kunststoffbriden b, Kunststoffteile c mit Fassungen, Kabelführungskanäle d und Leuchtstoffröhren e.



   Die Kunststoffbriden b und die Kabelführungskanäle d sind gemäss Fig. 1 mit dem Deckel (Platte) a durch wasserfesten Klebstoff fest verbunden. Die Kunststoffbriden dienen zur Befestigung der Leuchtstoffröhren.



   Gemäss Fig. 2 ist der Fassungseinsatz g und das Leuchtstoffröhrenende e in einem Kunststoffteil c wasserdicht einge drückt. Die Leuchtstoffröhren können einfach und gefahrlos ausgewechselt werden.



   Die Zugentlastung des Kabels f ist in der Fassung g so bewerkstelligt, dass keine Verdrehung des Kabels möglich ist. Die Vorschaltgeräte befinden sich in einem separaten Kasten. Der Deckel (Platte) a gem. Fig. 3 ist scharnierfrei und wird lose auf das Aquarium aufgelegt.

   The invention relates to an aquarium ceiling lighting system which is waterproof and consists of rustproof materials.



   The well-known ceiling lights for aquariums are not made of 100% rust-free and ozone-proof materials.



   Lighting systems of this type are prone to corrosion.



   The disadvantages of known systems include, above all, the susceptibility to repair, the short service life, the lack of safety and the inadequate spectral energy distribution.



   The invention aims to obviate these and other disadvantages.



   An exemplary embodiment of the invention is described in more detail below with reference to the drawing.



   Show it:
Fig. 1 is a view from the outside,
Fig. 2 is a sectional view and
3 shows a sectional view of the cover support with a cable hole.



   The ceiling lighting shown in Fig. 1 consists of a glass or plastic plate a, plastic clips b, plastic parts c with sockets, cable ducts d and fluorescent tubes e.



   The plastic clips b and the cable guide channels d are firmly connected to the cover (plate) a by means of a waterproof adhesive, as shown in FIG. The plastic clips are used to attach the fluorescent tubes.



   According to Fig. 2, the socket insert g and the fluorescent tube end e is pressed in a waterproof plastic part c. The fluorescent tubes can be exchanged easily and safely.



   The strain relief of the cable f is accomplished in the socket g in such a way that no twisting of the cable is possible. The ballasts are in a separate box. The cover (plate) a gem. Fig. 3 is hinge-free and is placed loosely on the aquarium.



   PATENT CLAIM



   Aquarium ceiling lighting system, characterized in that it is designed to be waterproof and consists of rustproof materials.



   SUBCLAIMS
1. System according to claim, characterized in that the socket inserts of the fluorescent tubes and their ends are surrounded by plastic parts in a watertight manner.



   2. System according to claim, characterized in that the cables are led out in plastic channels.



   3. System according to claim, characterized in that it has one or more fluorescent tubes.



   4. System according to claim, characterized in that the aquarium lid serving as a carrier for part of the system is hinge-free.
