Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an emergency lighting device.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In the past, some devices were equipped with a charging monitor lamp to check the charging status of the battery, or to have an inspection switch to check the abnormal lighting of the battery.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, since the charging monitor lamp uses a light emitting diode or the like and has low brightness, it has a drawback that visibility of the lighting state is poor under the lighting of the lighting lamp or during the daytime. Also, because the pulling ring of the inspection switch hangs down from the device, there was also a drawback that the appearance was poor.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an emergency lighting device that can improve the visibility of the charging monitor lamp and improve the appearance thereof.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The emergency lighting device of the present invention includes a battery, a main body of a device holding an emergency light that is lit by the battery, an inspection switch for checking the operation of the emergency light, and a charging monitor lamp for checking the charging state of the battery. An emergency lighting device including: an elastic light-shielding tube that is held by the main body of the device, stores the charging monitor lamp therein, and detachably fits the pulling ring of the inspection switch. It is.

[0006]

[Action]

 According to the configuration of the present invention, the state of charge of the battery is confirmed by the charge monitor lamp, and the emergency light of the emergency light is confirmed by removing the pulling ring of the inspection switch from the light shielding tube and pulling. In this case, since the charging monitor lamp is housed in the light-shielding cylinder, the visibility is improved because the charging monitor lamp is not affected by the light such as the normal light by looking inside the light-shielding cylinder. Also, by fitting the pulling ring of the inspection switch onto the light shielding tube, the pulling ring does not hang down, so the appearance is improved.

【Example】

 An embodiment of this invention will be described with reference to FIGS. That is, this emergency lighting fixture includes a battery 1, a fixture body 2, an emergency light 3, an inspection switch 4, a charging monitor lamp 5, and a light shielding tube 6. The battery 1 is exchangeably housed in a battery box 7 and is connected to a lead wire 9 via a connector 8 with a fuse. The lead wire 9 is passed through a metal flexible pipe 10 that connects the battery box 7 and the instrument body 2. Reference numeral 11 denotes a battery replacement cover, which is opened by loosening the thumbscrew 12. The battery box 7 is installed behind the ceiling (not shown).

The instrument body 2 holds an emergency light 3 that is turned on by a battery 1. The instrument main body 3 of the embodiment has a gate shape composed of a crosspiece 13 and a pair of side columns 14, and has a frame 15 attached to the lower end of the ceiling for engaging with the lower surface of the ceiling. A lamp socket 16, a ballast (not shown), a power supply terminal (not shown), a lighting block 17 having a built-in charging circuit and a lighting circuit are attached to the crosspiece 13, and the lead wire 9 is connected to the circuit connecting terminal ( (Not shown). A reflector support spring 18 is provided on the side of the lamp socket 16, and a reflector 19 is detachably attached to the reflector support spring 18. Reference numeral 20 denotes a mounting metal fitting that is provided in the side pillar 14 so as to be retracted and is locked to the back surface of the ceiling. The instrument body 3 is passed through an embedded hole (not shown) in the ceiling so that the frame 15 is locked to the ceiling surface. Then, the mounting bracket 20 is fixed to the rear surface of the ceiling.

The emergency light 3 is attached to the lamp socket 16 and is always lit by the power of the commercial power source as a normal light by the lighting circuit, and is lit by the power of the battery 1 in an emergency. The inspection switch 4 is connected to the commercial power source and cuts off the commercial power source to set the lighting circuit to the power failure state of the commercial power source to operate the emergency lighting circuit to light up by the power of the battery 1.

In the charging monitor lamp 5, a light emitting diode is used as an example, and a collar 29 for mounting is formed on the peripheral portion. The light-shielding tube 6 is an elastic body which is held by the instrument body 2 and accommodates the charging monitor lamp 5 therein and which allows the pulling wheel 22 of the inspection switch 4 to be detachably fitted on the outside. In the embodiment, rubber is used, and a base end portion 23 which is one end portion is formed thickly, and a pair of inner collars 21 are formed inside thereof, and the charging monitor lamp 5 is pushed in, whereby the charging monitor is inserted between the inner collars 21. The collar 29 of the lamp 5 is locked. Further, a peripheral groove 24 for mounting is formed on the outer periphery of the base end portion 23. A notch 25 is formed at the tip of the mounting bracket 26, and the charging monitor lamp 5 is attached to the mounting bracket 26 by locking the notch 25 in the circumferential groove 24. The base end 27 of the mounting bracket 26 is fixed by a screw 28. It is attached to the instrument body 2.

According to this embodiment, the state of charge of the battery 1 is confirmed by the charge monitor lamp 5, and the pulling ring 22 of the inspection switch 4 is detached from the light shielding tube 6 and pulled to confirm the emergency lighting of the emergency light 3. To do. In this case, since the charging monitor lamp 5 is housed in the light-shielding cylinder 6, the visibility is good because the charging monitor lamp 5 is not affected by the light of the normal light 3 or the like by looking inside the light-shielding cylinder 6. Further, by fitting the pulling wheel 22 of the inspection switch 4 onto the light shielding tube 6, the pulling wheel 22 does not hang down, so that the appearance is improved.

Since the light-shielding tube 6 is made of rubber, the charging monitor lamp 5 and the mounting hardware 26 can be easily mounted.

[Effect of the device]

 The emergency lighting device of the present invention has an elastic light-shielding tube which is held in the main body of the apparatus and accommodates the charging monitor lamp inside and the pulling ring of the inspection switch is detachably fitted on the inside thereof. As a result, the charging monitor lamp is not affected by the light of ordinary lights and the visibility is good.In addition, by fitting the pulling ring of the inspection switch onto the light shielding tube, the pulling ring does not hang down, so the appearance is good. There is an effect.
