Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate the attachment and removal of a panel by constituting a panel support part on each end lower side of a lighting equipment from a square inner frame having the upper surface opened and an outer frame covering the lower surface and longitudinal double sides of the inner frame and having hinge parts on both the longitudinal ends, and supporting the panel by a groove formed by the inner frame and outer frame. CONSTITUTION:The lower side of the end plate 11 of a fluorescent lamp lighting equipment with panel is formed of a square inner frame 12 having the upper surface opened and an outer frame 13 covering the lower surface and longitudinal double sides of the inner frame 12, and the outer frame 13 is formed of a resin material having hinge parts 14 on both the longitudinal ends. A panel support groove 15 is provided between the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 13, a light permeable panel 7 fitted into and supported by the panel support groove 15 is disposed on at least one side of the surface and reverse display parts of the fluorescent lamp lighting equipment with panel. Thus, the panel can be supported by the inner frame and the outer frame. Further, the panel can be taken out by opening the outer frame, and the attachment and removal of the panel is facilitated.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to improvements in fluorescent lamp lighting fixtures with panels.

[Conventional technology]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there are fluorescent lamp lighting equipment with a panel, such as a guide light equipment that indicates a safe guidance direction or an indicator light equipment that displays a destination.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the guide light equipment includes a fluorescent lamp 2 mounted inside a main body 1 having a rectangular shape.
A structure is implemented in which a back plate 3 is screwed to the back surface of the main body 1, and a translucent panel 4 is further screwed to the front surface using a support frame 5.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, according to the guide light fixture with the above structure, the panel is supported by screws attached to the main body using a support frame, so there are a large number of parts, and the panel must be removed when attaching or detaching the fluorescent lamp. It has the disadvantage that it requires a lot of work.

In particular, guide light equipment may be installed at high places, so
It is desirable that the panel be easy to install and remove after installation.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention was invented in view of the above points, and is a panel-equipped fluorescent lighting fixture that has a simple structure, allows easy installation and removal of panels, and allows work to be performed safely even at high places. The purpose is to provide

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has the following configuration. That is, in claim 1, a fluorescent lamp is attached to a socket provided on the inner surface of the end plate, and a panel is provided on at least one side of the front and back display sections.

Further, the lower panel support portions at both ends are composed of an inner frame and an outer frame that covers the lower surface of the inner frame and both sides in the longitudinal direction.

In addition, the inner frame has an open top surface and a square shape, and has hinges at both ends in the longitudinal direction, and the panel is held in a groove formed by the inner frame and the outer frame. Configure.

In claim 2, an appropriate number of protrusions are formed on the inner surface of the support surface that is bent by the hinge of the outer frame to support the lower surface of the panel.

[Effect]

According to the panel-equipped fluorescent lighting fixture having the above-described structure, the panel can be easily supported by the inner frame and the outer frame, and the panel can be taken out by opening the outer frame.
Further, at this time, the panel can be engaged with the protrusion of the outer frame to prevent it from falling off.

〔Example〕

The present invention will now be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6. In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes an end plate of a fluorescent lamp lighting fixture with a panel, and the lower side of the lighting fixture has a regular inner frame 12 with an open top surface and a square configuration, and a lower surface of the inner frame 12 and both sides in the longitudinal direction. It is constituted by an outer frame 13 that covers the outer frame 13.

Further, the outer frame 13 has hinge portions 14 at both ends in the longitudinal direction and is made of a resin material. Furthermore, a panel support groove 15 is provided between the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 13. 16 is an end cover disposed at both ends of the end plate 11; 17 is a translucent panel fitted and supported in the panel support groove 15 between the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 13; It is arranged on at least one side of the front and back display parts of the lighting equipment.

Also, the panel 17 has a structure that displays on one side.

It consists of a display panel 17 on the front side, and an opaque plate on the back side.

Reference numeral 18 indicates an appropriate number of protrusions provided on the inner surface of the outer frame, and is configured to support the panel 17.

Further, sockets are disposed at both ends of the end plate 11, and a 20 watt fluorescent lamp, for example, is attached to the sockets.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention includes a panel support section at the lower side of both ends of a lighting equipment, which includes a regular inner frame having an open upper surface and a square configuration, and a fixed inner frame that covers the lower surface and both sides of the inner frame in the longitudinal direction. It consists of an outer frame made of resin material with hinges at both ends of the direction, and the panel is held in a groove formed by the inner frame and the outer frame, making it easy to attach and detach the panel. can be done.

In addition, an appropriate number of protrusions are formed on the inner surface of the support surface that can be bent by the hinge of the outer frame, so when removing the panel, the panel engages with the protrusions and does not fall off, allowing for safe work. I can do it.
