Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a reflector arrangement for a luminaire, wherein the reflector arrangement has a plurality of reflector chambers arranged in series, via which the light emitted by a light source is emitted in a directionally directed manner.
  • Reflector arrangements of this type are usually used when it is to be avoided that dazzle occurs due to the light emitted by a luminaire.
  • the individual reflector chambers of the arrangement are configured in such a way that the light emitted by the light source can leave the luminaire only at certain angular ranges. These areas are chosen so that an obliquely located below the lamp person can not look directly into the light source.
  • the use of such reflector arrangements also reflections on perpendicular surfaces within a space to be illuminated can be avoided. The directed downwardly emitted light can thus be used in particular to illuminate offices with VDU workstations.
  • the reflector arrangements can also assume different shapes.
  • luminaires which have one or more elongate gas discharge lamps, in particular fluorescent tubes, as the light source.
  • a reflector arrangement arranged in the light emission direction in front of the light source is then likewise elongated and consists of a plurality of reflector chambers arranged in series.
  • annular lights are also known, which have a circular curved light source.
  • the reflector assembly also has a ring structure which is to be arranged in the emission direction in front of the light source.
  • Reflector arrangements of the type discussed above can be created, for example, by first providing two reflector walls which are spaced apart from one another and extend substantially parallel to one another and which are connected to one another by a plurality of latching crossbars.
  • the latching crossbars usually have a slight V-shape and subdivide the overall arrangement into juxtaposed reflector chambers.
  • the German utility model DE 90 17 372 describes a lamp having an elongated light source in a rectangular base body.
  • the elongate light source is also associated with a mirror grid as a reflector, wherein the mirror grid is composed of several individual elements.
  • the European patent application EP 0 359 069 shows a method for producing a lighting grid.
  • grid chambers are formed as individual components, which are then connected to a plurality of strung together on a holding device with each other to a light grid.
  • the German Offenlegungsschrift DE 33 37 901 shows a reflector of an inside mirrored hollow body, on the sides of which openings are provided for introducing a light source.
  • the reflector is preferably made of foldable material and serves as an element for assembly into a grid.
  • the present invention is based on the object to provide a way to produce reflector assemblies in different shapes and lengths in the simplest possible way.
  • the reflector arrangement according to the invention has a plurality of reflector chambers arranged in series.
  • the reflector chambers or groups thereof are separate elements which are suitable and intended for assembly, such that they as a whole constitute the reflector arrangement.
  • the juxtaposed end walls of two adjoining elements together yield a latching transverse web, by means of which the reflector chambers are separated from one another.
  • the end walls of the elements are - seen in the direction of radiation - slightly outward inclined, so that formed by two adjacent elements Rastquersteg is substantially V-shaped, as is the case with the usual V-blades of lamp grids.
  • the end walls of two adjoining elements abut one another at their lower edges.
  • the retractor assembly is thus not formed as previously from the side Retlektor professionn and interposed Rastquerstegen, but instead individual individual elements are assembled into an entire arrangement, wherein the individual elements comprise at least one reflector chamber. It is a modular system available, so to speak, in which the separate elements can be assembled in the desired manner. This makes it possible in particular to form reflector assemblies of any length, which is advantageous if the arrangements must be adapted to certain lights. Furthermore, it is also possible to use slightly curved elements which are assembled into a ring structure in order to form an annular reflector arrangement.
  • the separate elements according to the invention are preferably made of plastic and can be produced in particular by injection molding.
  • the retarder assembly according to the invention has improved optical properties.
  • the elements assembled to form the retractor assembly can be held together by a separate retaining element, but preferably they have their own connecting means, over which they are assembled.
  • the connecting means can form tongue and groove connections, via which a simple and quick assembly of the elements in the manner of a modular system is made possible.
  • Fig. 1 shows a lamp provided in its entirety by the reference numeral 1, in which a reflector assembly according to the present invention is used.
  • the illustrated luminaire 1 is a ceiling luminaire with a box-shaped luminaire housing 2, which is inserted into the circular opening of a ceiling 3.
  • annular light source in the form of a gas discharge lamp 5.
  • the light emitted by this lamp 5 should be radiated towards the bottom, but only within certain angular ranges in order to avoid glare.
  • annular reflector arrangement 10 is provided which, viewed in the emission direction, is arranged substantially in front of the lamp 5.
  • the restriction of the emitted light rays to certain areas is done on the one hand by the reflective outer and inner walls 10a and 10b of the reflector assembly, but in particular by a plurality of transversely arranged thereto - schematically illustrated - Rastquerstegen 13.
  • These locking crossbars 13 divide the cross-section U- shaped reflector assembly 10 in a plurality of reflector chambers 12, which each form a light exit surface on its underside, through which the light of the lamp 5 is discharged.
  • the latching transverse webs 13 At their upper area, each have a recess 11, which allows the lamp 5 to be arranged within the upper area of the reflector arrangement 10.
  • the shape and structure of the inner and outer walls 10a and 10b and the Rastquerstege 13 of the reflector assembly 10 is such that light emitted from the lamp 5 light can leave the emission openings of the light chambers 12 only at certain angles.
  • the walls are each slightly inclined laterally, so that a lateral radiation is possible at smaller angles.
  • the solution according to the invention consists of assembling the reflector arrangement of separate elements, wherein the elements form a reflector chamber or a group of reflector chambers. Corresponding elements are in the Fig. 2a and 2b shown.
  • the element provided with the reference numeral 20 is box-shaped and has two side walls 21 and 22 and two end walls 23 and 24 which are reflective at least on its inner side or provided with a reflective layer and together define a light exit opening for a reflector chamber on its underside ,
  • the elements 20 are to be used to form an annular reflector arrangement, for which reason the side walls 21 and 22 are slightly arcuately curved and the outer side wall 23 has a greater radius of curvature than the opposite inner wall 21.
  • First connecting elements consist in a recess 25a and a pin-shaped projection 25b, which are arranged at the two ends of a laterally adjoining the light exit opening bottom strip 25.
  • a cylindrical groove 26a On the opposite inner side of the element 20 is also a cylindrical groove 26a, which is provided for locking with a columnar projection 26b.
  • the resulting reflector assembly 10 exactly meets the requirements of the lamp in Fig. 1 provided reflector assembly.
  • an annular channel 11 is again formed by corresponding recesses 23a and 24a on the upper sides of the end faces 23, 24, in which the light source can be used.
  • individual Reflector chambers 12 formed, which are separated by transverse webs 13 from each other. It is of particular importance that the reflector transverse webs 13 - as desired in luminaire grids - are slightly V-shaped open upwards. This is achieved in that the latching transverse webs 13 are formed by the two adjoining end walls 23 and 24 of two adjacent elements 20, which are seen in the emission direction, slightly inclined outwards and abut only at their lower edges.
  • each reflector chamber 12 of the reflector assembly 10 is formed by a separate element 20.
  • the reflector assembly 10 according to the invention can thus be created in a simple manner in that a plurality of the elements 20 produced by injection molding is joined together.
  • the tongue and groove connections produced by the connecting elements 25a, 25b and 26a, 26b ensure a reliable hold, so that overall a stable arrangement is achieved.
  • the cost of creating the reflector assembly 10 is in this case significantly lower than was previously the case when assembling many items according to the prior art.
  • An advantage of the inventive solution when creating straight reflector arrangements is that the length of the reflector assembly to be created can be changed in a simple manner by the number of items used. It is therefore possible to provide reflector assemblies of different lengths in a simple manner, without requiring additional effort for this purpose. Furthermore, it would also be possible to form more complex structures for reflector arrangements, provided that the individual elements are shaped accordingly. For example, it would be conceivable to form S-shaped or serpentine reflector arrangements.
  • the present invention provides a solution to create reflector assemblies even more complex forms in a simple and fast way.
  • the reflector assembly formed by means of the composite elements also has excellent optical properties, which is why it can also be used in demanding lighting situations.
