Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sheet lighting luminaire comprising:
  • Such a street lighting luminaire is known from EP-A-0 686 805.
  • the known street lighting luminaire renders it possible to replace an electric lamp in the luminaire with a new lamp in that a hinging cover of the housing is opened and the lampholder with the lamp inside is removed from the lampholder opening of the reflector without opening the light emission window.
  • the hinging cover must first be opened and be fixed in the open position before the lampholder can be brought to the exterior.
  • the old lamp can then be screwed from the lampholder and a new lamp can be inserted. After the lampholder with the lamp has been mounted in the luminaire again, the cover can be closed.
  • a street lighting luminaire is known from US-A-4,028,541 whose transparent plate with the reflector and lampholder with lamp connected thereto can hinge outwards, whereupon the lampholder can be detached for exchanging the lamp.
  • the housing has an opening through which the lampholder can be brought into its operational position in the lampholder opening, which opening in the housing is closed by means of a lid which is detachable from the housing and to which the lampholder is fastened.
  • the street lighting luminaire according to the invention renders it possible to exchange an inserted lamp easily and quickly in that the detachable lid is taken from the housing, and thus bringing the lampholder and the lamp held therein to the outside simultaneously, in one operation. It is a particularly attractive feature of the street lighting luminaire that the lid with the lampholder, the lamp and the connector can be fully detached electrically and mechanically and removed from the housing, so that it is possible to approach the luminaire with a spare set of the lid with the lampholder and connector fastened thereto, complete with a new lamp inserted therein. After removal of the lid from the luminaire, the spare lid assembly is placed, whereby the lamp replacement is effected. The lamp in the lid just removed may be replaced on the way to a next luminaire. The time necessary for the replacement of a lamp can be additionally reduced thereby.
  • the dimensions of the lid need be only a little larger, for example by 2 cm, than the greatest lateral dimension of the lamp to be placed in the luminaire.
  • the lampholder can be removed from its operational position by means of a linear translatory movement away from the housing.
  • This has the advantage of an enhanced ease of replacement, but also of the possibility of using simple, for example commercially available male and female connectors which can be coupled and uncoupled by means of a simple linear translation.
  • the lid itself carries the locking device.
  • This embodiment offers the possibility of unlocking the unit formed by lid, lampholder, connector, and lamp with one hand, for example in one fluent movement, and removing it, and also of placing a new unit with a new lamp inside with the other hand and locking it.
  • the opening in the housing is arranged in a hood with a hinge and a closure which is part of the housing.
  • the hood can only be rotated about the hinge so as to be opened when the lid has been removed. This has the advantage that it is prevented that the lamp and the lampholder can be touched while the hood is open, for example for inspection or maintenance, while they are live.
  • the closure of the hood may be overlapped by the lid, for example, by a projecting tag of the lid.
  • the street lighting luminaire comprises a housing 1 provided with a light emission window 2 and means 3 for holding on to a mast a .
  • a reflector 4 is present in the housing in front of the light emission window and is provided with a lampholder opening 5 at a side which faces away from the means 3 for holding on to a mast a .
  • a lampholder 7, e.g. an Edison lampholder for holding and electrically contacting a one-sided capped electric lamp b within the reflector 4 is detachably fastened in an operational position in the lampholder opening 5.
  • a supply unit 8 for electrically supplying an accommodated lamp b is present in the housing.
  • the lamp shown is a high-pressure sodium discharge lamp with a tubular outer envelope. Alternatively, however, the lamp used may well have an ellipsoidal outer envelope.
  • a male electric connector 71 is electrically, to make a phase and a zero connection, and mechanically connected to the lampholder 7.
  • a female electric connector 9 is arranged in the housing, in electric contact with the male connector 71 and electrically connected to the supply unit 8 via a cable 10.
  • the lampholder 7 with the lamp b inside can be brought from outside the reflector 4 into its operational position in the lampholder opening 5 while bypassing the light emission window 2, and can be removed therefrom also while bypassing the light emission window 2.
  • the male connector 71 and the female connector 9 then make electric contacts and break their electric contacts, respectively.
  • the housing 1 has an opening 11 through which the lampholder 7 can be brought into its operational position in the lampholder opening 5, which opening 11 in the housing 1 is closed with a lid 72 which is detachable from the housing and to which the lampholder 7 is fastened.
  • a hood 12 which can be opened for maintenance of the supply unit 8, of the reflector 4, and of the plate 6, forms part of the housing 1 of the luminaire shown.
  • the hood has a hinge 14 and a closure 15.
  • the opening 11 is present in the hood 12.
  • the lampholder 7 can be removed from its operational position by means of a linear translatory movement from the housing 1, see also Fig. 2.
  • the luminaire has a locking device 73 for the lid 72 of the housing 1 which can be operated without tools.
  • the locking device 73 is supported by the lid 72.
  • the locking device comprises hinging arms which are pressed against the inside of the housing 1, i.e. the inside of the hood 12 of the housing 1 in the Figures, by a spring 76.
  • the locking action can be lifted in that a button 74 at the outside of the lid 72 is pulled out, see Fig. 2. This is rendered even easier in the modification shown in Fig. 2, where a handle 75 is present on the lid 72 by which the unit shown can be gripped and carried. During gripping, it is possible to pull the button 74, so that the locking arms 73 hinge towards one another and their free ends assume a smaller interspacing.
  • the lid 72 may as a result be removed in one fluent movement with one hand while the lock is being operated, complete with the lampholder 7, the lamp b , and the connector 71 from the housing, i.e. from the operational position of the lampholder 7, or may be connected to the housing in said position in such a movement.
  • the hood can only be opened after the lid 72 with the lamp b has been removed from the housing.
  • a projecting tag 77 of the lid 72 overlaps the closure 15 after the lid 72 has been placed.
