Abstract

Eine Halogen-Niedervoltleuchte besitzt ein Trafogehäuse (23), an dem stromführende Leiterstangen (1) befestigt sind, die zur Armatur (9) der Niedervoltlampe führen. Die stromführenden Leiterstangen (1) sind quer zu ihren Längsachsen verschwenkbar an außerhalb des Trafogehäuses (23) angeordneten Kontakten (2) angelenkt. Die Kontakte sind als Druckkontakte ausgebildet. Die schwenkbare Anlenkung der Leiterstange erlaubt deren senkrechte Ausrichtung unabhängig davon, wie sorgfältig und genau das Trafogehäuse an der Decke montiert ist.A low-voltage halogen lamp has a transformer housing (23) to which live conductor bars (1) are attached, which lead to the armature (9) of the low-voltage lamp. The current-carrying conductor bars (1) are pivotably articulated transversely to their longitudinal axes to contacts (2) arranged outside the transformer housing (23). The contacts are designed as pressure contacts. The pivotable linkage of the ladder bar allows it to be aligned vertically regardless of how carefully and precisely the transformer housing is mounted on the ceiling.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Halogen-Niedervoltleuchte mit einem Trafogehäuse, an dem stromführende Leiter­stangen befestigt sind, die zur Niedervoltlampe führen.The invention relates to a halogen low-voltage lamp with a transformer housing, to which live conductor bars are attached, which lead to the low-voltage lamp.

Bei bekannten Konstruktionen dieser Art sind die Leiterstangen üblicherweise starr mit dem Trafogehäuse verbunden. Dies hat zur Folge, daß eine sorgfältige Ausrichtung der Leuchte vergleichsweise schwierig ist. Es genügen geringfügige Unebenheiten in der Decke, die zu wesentlich größeren Auslenkungen der Leiterstangen aus der Senkrechten führen.In known constructions of this type, the conductor bars are usually rigidly connected to the transformer housing. As a result, careful alignment of the lamp is comparatively difficult. Slight bumps in the ceiling are sufficient, which lead to much larger deflections of the conductor bars from the vertical.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Er­findung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Halogen-Nieder­voltleuchte der als bekannt vorausgesetzten Art so auszubilden, daß eine senkrechte Ausrichtung der Leiterstangen besonders einfach möglich ist.Based on this prior art, the invention has for its object to design a halogen low-voltage lamp of the type presumed to be known so that a vertical alignment of the conductor bars is particularly easy.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß da­durch, daß die stromführenden Leiterstangen quer zu ihren Längsachsen verschwenkbar an außerhalb des Trafo­gehäuses angeordneten Kontakten angelenkt sind.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the current-carrying conductor bars are pivotally articulated transversely to their longitudinal axes to contacts arranged outside the transformer housing.

Die schwenkbare Anlenkung an außerhalb des Trafoge­häuses angeordneten Kontakten erlaubt eine senkrechte Ausrichtung der Leiterstangen unabhängig von der Montagegenauigkeit des Trafogehäuses.The pivotable articulation on contacts arranged outside the transformer housing allows the conductor bars to be aligned vertically, regardless of the accuracy of installation of the transformer housing.

Bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen sowie in der nachfolgenden Zeichnungs­beschreibung im einzelnen beschrieben. In der Zeichnung zeigen:

  • Figur 1 - eine perspektivische teilweise geschnittene Darstellung der Halogen-Niedervoltleuchte, wobei der linke Bereich eine Explosions­darstellung zeigt,
  • Figur 2 - eine Explosionsdarstellung des Klemmkon­takts.
Preferred embodiments of the invention are described in detail in the subclaims and in the following description of the drawings. The drawing shows:
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective, partially sectioned illustration of the halogen low-voltage lamp, the left area showing an exploded view,
  • Figure 2 - an exploded view of the terminal contact.

In einem nur angedeuteten Trafogehäuse 23 sitzt ein Trafo 12, von dessen Sekundärseite die Leiter 13 zu insgesamt mit 2 bezeichneten Kontakten geführt sind.A transformer 12 is seated in a transformer housing 23, which is only indicated, from the secondary side of which the conductors 13 are guided to a total of 2 contacts.

Die Kontakte bestehen aus einer Klemmschraube 14, die in die Kabelaufnahme 15 eingeschraubt ist und das Kabelende in der Kabelaufnahme 15 fixiert.The contacts consist of a clamping screw 14 which is screwed into the cable receptacle 15 and fixes the cable end in the cable receptacle 15.

Die Kabelaufnahme 15 besitzt an ihrem unteren Ende ein Gewinde und durchsetzt eine Hülse 16. Der im Durch­messer kleinere Bereich der Kabelaufnahme 15 wird von einer Druckfeder 17 umgeben. Die Druckfeder liegt in einer zentralen Ausnehmung der Hülse 16 und liegt einerseits am Boden dieser Hülse 16 an, andererseits an der Oberseite einer Hutmutter 5. Die Hutmutter 5 be­sitzt eine Kugelfläche 3 an ihrer Unterseite. Die Hutmutter kann unter Druck nach oben ausweichen.The cable receptacle 15 has a thread at its lower end and passes through a sleeve 16. The area of the cable receptacle 15, which is smaller in diameter, is surrounded by a compression spring 17. The compression spring lies in a central recess in the sleeve 16 and is in contact with the bottom of this sleeve 16 and with the top of a cap nut 5. The cap nut 5 has a spherical surface 3 on its underside. The cap nut can deflect upwards under pressure.

Die Hülse 16 besitzt ferner einen Gewindebereich 2a, auf den eine Überwurfmutter 7 aufgeschraubt ist.The sleeve 16 also has a threaded region 2a, onto which a union nut 7 is screwed.

In der Überwurfmutter 7 liegt am oberen Ende einer Leiterstange 1 ein Klemmring 4, der mit einer Madenschraube 6 an der Leiterstange fixiert ist.In the union nut 7 there is a clamping ring 4 at the upper end of a ladder rod 1, which is fixed to the ladder rod with a grub screw 6.

Das Vorsehen des Klemmrings mit Madenschraube erlaubt eine Kürzung der Leiterstange auf jede gewünschte Länge.The provision of the clamping ring with grub screw allows the conductor bar to be shortened to any desired length.

Am unteren Ende besitzt die Leiterstange 1 ein Gewinde 1a, das in eine Gewindebuchse 8 eingeschraubt ist, welche zu einer Stange 22 der insgesamt mit 9 bezeich­neten Armatur gehört. Das Ende 22a der Stange 22 wird in eine Gewindebohrung 9a der Armatur 9 eingeschraubt. Mit 18 ist die Fassung bezeichnet, mit 19 ein Schirm. Eine Klemmplatte 20 sichert den Schirm 19 an der Armatur 9.At the lower end, the conductor rod 1 has a thread 1 a, which is screwed into a threaded bushing 8, which belongs to a rod 22 of the armature designated overall by 9. The end 22a of the rod 22 is screwed into a threaded bore 9a of the fitting 9. With 18 the version is designated, with 19 a screen. A clamping plate 20 secures the screen 19 on the fitting 9.
