Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify the direction correction of an illumination fixture to be suspended by a cord such as chandelier and establish harmony in relationship with the applied room. CONSTITUTION:The body 1 of a direction correcting device for an illumination fixture consists of a base board 2 and a suspension tool 3 secured to this base board. A cord 5 is led out through a hole 4 provided on the topsurface of this suspension tool 3. The hole edge 7 is detained by a stopper 6 secured to the cord 5, and a chandelier is hung therewith. The holes edge 7 is formed in a serration (saw-teeth) direction downward, and the edge 8 of the stopper 6 is meshed.

[Detailed description of the invention]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a direction adjustment device for a lighting fixture, such as a chandelier, suspended by a cord.

0002

[Prior Art] Conventionally, in a type of lighting fixture that is hung by a cord, the cord is led out from a hole on the top surface of the main body.
There was one in which the hole edge was locked with a stopper fixed to the cord.

0003

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] After this type of lighting equipment is hung from the ceiling, it is necessary to adjust its direction in order to harmonize the relationship with the room. This direction correction is performed by lifting the lighting fixture slightly to release the engagement between the hole edge and the stopper, and then rotating it in a horizontal plane.

However, even if the direction is corrected, the lighting fixture still rotates slightly due to the twist inside the cord's main body.
It is very tedious to have to make direction corrections many times.

[0005] Therefore, the present invention solves the above problems and
The purpose is to easily adjust the direction of lighting equipment.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention provides a lighting device in which a cord is led out from a hole on the upper surface of the main body, and is suspended by locking the edge of the hole with a stopper fixed to the cord. A direction correction device for a lighting fixture is constructed by forming fine irregularities toward the stopper and engaging the edges of the stopper.

[0007]

[Operation] According to the present invention, the hole edge of the main body that is engaged by the stopper fixed to the cord is formed in a finely uneven shape facing downward, so that once the direction is corrected, the stopper and the finely uneven hole edge are formed. Because of the interlocking, twisting of the internal portion of the cord will not act to rotate the luminaire, making orientation corrections very simple.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Examples of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The drawing shows the vicinity of the center of the chandelier to which the present invention is applied, and the main body 1 consists of a base plate 2 and a hanging tool 3 fixed to the base plate 2. A cord 5 is led out from the hole 4, and a stopper 6 fixed to the cord 5 locks the hole edge 7, thereby hanging the chandelier. Then, the hole edge 7 is formed into a fine downward concave-convex shape (sawtooth shape) and is engaged with the edge 8 of the stopper 6.

To further explain this embodiment, a hook plug 9 is connected to the upper end of the cord 5 as is commonly used, and this hook plug 9 is connected to a hook rosette 11 fixed to the ceiling 10. . The part of the cord 5 led out above the hole 4 of the hanging tool 3 is passed through a guide tube 12 fixed to the upper surface of the hanging tool 3, so that the cord 5 is not bent and the chandelier is prevented from tilting. The base plate 2 is provided with a plurality of arms 13 extending radially, and the ends of the arms 13 support a lamp (not shown). Further, a portion of the cord 5 inside the main body 1 is introduced into the lower surface of the base plate 2.

Further, a cylindrical case 14 shown in FIG. 2 is fixed to the base plate 2 and covers the hanging tool 3, and a cover 15 is guided around the outer periphery of the case 14 to connect the hooking rosette 11 and the hooking plug. It covers 9. cover 1
5 is a spring wire 1 fixed to the side of the hanging tool 3 and raised up.
6 is attached to urge the cover 15 upward.

According to the above configuration, after the cover 15 is lowered against the biasing force of the spring wire 16, the hook plug 9 is connected to the hook rosette 11, and this chandelier is attached to the ceiling 1.
Hang it to 0. Next, the direction is corrected to determine the direction of this chandelier in the horizontal plane. That is,
After lifting the main body 1 slightly to release the engagement between the hole edge 7 and the stopper 6, the main body 1 is rotated in a horizontal plane. Once you've decided on the direction in relation to the room, it's a good idea to let go. This allows only one direction correction.

That is, since the hole edge 7 of the main body 1 (hanging tool 3), which is locked by the stopper 6 fixed to the cord 5, is formed into a fine downward concave and convex shape, once the direction is corrected, the edge 8 of the stopper 6 Since the chandelier and the finely uneven hole edge 7 engage with each other, the torsion of the cord 5 inside the main body 1 no longer acts to rotate the chandelier, and only a very simple direction correction is required, reducing the burden on the user. This saves construction work.

[0014]

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, in a lighting fixture such as a chandelier that is hung by a cord, the hole edge of the main body, which is engaged by a stopper fixed to the cord, is formed into a fine downward concave and convex shape. If you correct the direction,
Because the edge of the stopper and the finely uneven hole edge engage, twisting of the cord inside the main body does not act to rotate the lighting fixture, and a simple direction correction is required without putting any burden on the user. This has the effect of harmonizing the relationship with the room.
