Abstract

The multipurpose elongate lighting unit has a modular structure, with its functional modules (106, 107, 108) with standardized lateral dimensions not dependent on their length housed in elongate main and side profiles (102, 37).

Description

The invention relates to a modular lighting system for linear trained Illuminant, which in addition to applications in the field of general decorative Be lighting especially for safety lighting in the context of emergency lighting can be used.

Escape route or safety sign lights can either be designed so that a pictogram is illuminated, or there is a corresponding one with transparency Back surface illuminated. The latter form of training is with appropriate users very widespread because the structural and lighting conditions are good prevail and the lights are inexpensive to manufacture. A lamp housing for The inclusion of all functional elements consists of the lower part of the housing and a transparent, transparent lucent or prismatic structured cover that the respective safety sign receives. Alternatively, the luminaire housing is usually made with a cuboid geometry Aluminum frame profiles built up, the outer surfaces are made of sheet metal parts and front and / or back made of opal discs that carry the information symbols. Furthermore, light guide disk arrangements, also referred to as disk lights, are knows, where the pictograms on translucent or clear transparent supports discs are applied and these constructively and optically with appropriate light exit surfaces of the lamp housing are connected so that the luminous flux in the In one or more lamps arranged in the inner region of the lamp housing becomes.

Depending on the requirements regarding recognizability and placement in a building Escape route or safety sign luminaires for different types of installation placed. A distinction is made between wall, wall bracket and ceiling installation, with Dec Pendulum, rope or chain suspension can be used. These are ent speaking mounting elements available as accessories.

According to applicable guidelines, there are defined geometries for pictograms, in particular re safety signs that reflect the shape and geometry of the carrier washers as well as the  Largely define the lights themselves. The luminaire housings are necessary Geometry of the light exit surface always cuboid. Furthermore, they are for a user luminaire housing designed as pictogram luminaires, especially for Schei Illuminate, can only be used for this purpose, not alternatively also for decorative Purposes. All known standard lamps of this type show correspond characteristics.

A certain exception is described in DE 198 17 065, here is a carrier disc arranged in front of the light exit surface of the luminaire housing and essential formed larger than the light exit opening itself adapted to the pictogram. Da through can the support plate with certain training of the edge as certain serve decorative element.

Ohmic light bulbs are being increasingly replaced as illuminants due to their poor efficiency and harmful warming, usually come commercial che, in particular rod-shaped fluorescent lamps, preferably with a tube through knife of 16 mm. The use of meanwhile very bright LEDs are shown in DE 197 46 854, the use of Advantages of both lighting concepts, fluorescent lamp and light emitting diodes, proposed becomes. Due to the lighting requirements described, a corresponding Adequate emergency light for mains operation with fluorescent lamp and for emergency operation with light diodes operated.

Safety sign or escape route luminaires, the modern cold cathode as illuminant fluorescent lamps with tube diameters in the range of 2 to 7 mm or modern ones Fluorescent lamps with a tube diameter of 7 mm (from OSRAM, type FM6 W to 13 W) ver are not yet known for single-battery lights.

Additional path lighting when using light-emitting diodes as illuminants in Ver Binding with an escape route light is shown in DE 197 47 079. Here is before beaten, in an escape route luminaire with a light guide, in the over the side Light entry edges, the light from a variety of light emitting diodes is fed, one sufficient number of LEDs to be arranged so that their luminous flux for Path lighting is used. As an alternative to the use of light-emitting diodes,  that the escape route light has a second lamp system, which the Direct light from at least one fluorescent lamp directly onto the path.

The luminaire housings of disc lights as pictogram or safety signs are made of sheet metal or plastic parts. The structural length of the luminaire housing is determined by the length of the carrier disc, which in turn is determined by the size of the pictogram, which thus defines the projected detection range for the use of the luminaire in accordance with DIN 4844 or EN 1838 . The functional elements of such a luminaire are: control gear for the lamp or lamps for mains and emergency operation, control electronics, lamps with corresponding sockets and brackets, reflector systems, elements for the electrical connection and for individual batteries, the corresponding battery (usually NiCd battery) also light up Associated charging management with supply from the luminous flux network. These functional elements are arranged in the luminaire housing so that, according to the respective structural conditions, they are screwed onto a carrier plate and wired directly to one another within the housing. The illuminant is arranged in the lower area of the lamp housing directly above the carrier disc, its luminous flux is coupled into it. The lamp housing has a corresponding gap in which the carrier disc is BEFE Stigt. This construction concept has the disadvantages that the respective luminaire can only be used sensibly with a carrier disk, that is to say as a pictogram luminaire. Design variants for other sizes due to larger pictograms or safety symbols for larger recognition distances also require a geometrically adapted housing, which in turn is also to be manufactured. Furthermore, decorative elements or designer training are difficult or impossible to arrange.

Smaller floodlights with cold cathode fluorescent lamps show a first solution to this problem. A uniform aluminum profile element is used as the luminaire housing, which is only cut to a corresponding system dimension for different lengths of one or more rod-shaped lamps. Examples are the lights of the ERG-O-FLOOD miniature display system from ERG Elektro-Röhren-Gesellschaft Göttingen. They consist of a one-piece aluminum profile with a width of 35 mm and a height of 48 mm, which is closed off at the end by plastic end caps. A total of 12 different standard lengths are offered. A transparent tube is arranged inside the aluminum profile, which serves to accommodate a reflector profile. This reflector profile carries on the back one or more electronic operating devices, whereby one operating device can control one lamp. The front of the reflector profile can be provided with a corresponding reflective coating, in front of which the lamp is arranged. As a result, the lamp luminous flux is oriented into a narrow light exit surface arranged along the length of the profile or optionally into a light guide plate arranged therein. The possible applications with and without a light guide arrangement are in the areas of a pictogram lamp for advertising, information and safety signs as well as spotlights for decorative purposes. The construction principle of this arrangement, however, due to the high space requirement for additional functional elements, does not permit use in the sense of a safety sign luminaire with a single battery, and there is also no possibility of arranging further illuminants for additional path lighting.

The object of the invention is to di the advantages of using profile elements rect as a luminaire housing for the constructive solution of different sizes from To introduce pictogram and escape route lights with light guide arrangements the traceability of the system to the function of a pure floodlight for general my decorative lighting purposes even without the use of light guide discs possible, additional path lighting over the possibility of arrangement rer bulbs in a decorative manner and also a manufacturing techni advantage due to the modularity of the functional elements and components.

The object of the invention is achieved by the be in the protection claims written orders.

According to the invention, the use of a lamp family is uniform formed basic profile as a luminaire housing with a division of for the users necessary functional elements in physically separate functional modules. With different functionality, different function modules are created Types, the geometry of which is identical to the same types only by the length dimension in the sense of System dimensions of the respective light differs. The assigned functionality depends on the available installation space, the type and technology of the modules  as well as the technically possible and sensible interfaces with regard to their necessary electrical connections with each other. The system dimension is determined by the length dimension of the illuminant determined. The function modules are described in a basic profile and optionally in additional side panels arranged on the basic profile or additional profiles mounted. The end caps on the end faces of the profile, which in turn ent are trained according to the protection claims, secure the function rooms electrical and mechanical connections of the function modules to each other the as well as to the outside world. A particularly slim design of a basic profile for Achieving a good design is due to the tiered arrangement of several Function modules in the basic profile as well as by using rod-shaped lamps given with a particularly small diameter.

The invention is industrially applicable, since both lights for general decorative Applications as well as for safety lighting in large series industrially be put. In public buildings, hotels, restaurants, airports, events rooms etc., escape route lights are required by law. The invent training of the lamp variants according to the invention without carrier disks for Pikto Grams or safety signs are widely usable for decorative path lighting also for showcase, furniture or counter lighting.

The solution according to the invention produces numerous advantageous effects compared to the state of the art. A main advantage is that with a one-off manufacture of tools for a basic profile, end caps, protective tubes of function modules and optionally one or more side or additional profiles a system kit for a family of luminaires of different sizes, since only the length The cutting of profiles and protective tubes determines the system size. Here are the Function modules, particularly in the case of electronics made from printed circuit boards, as carrier materials lien exist for different system dimensions only of the smallest necessary dimension determined and can always be used with it or by simply changing the length of the lei Adapt the top plate with the same layout. This is a significant saving of Tool costs compared to solutions that are different for different sizes re housing and components need.  

In applications as an escape route luminaire with a corresponding Lichtleitscheibeanord voltage from a carrier disk with a pictogram, additional path lighting can be achieved very advantageously by means of additional function modules arranged in side profiles with light sources. Therefore, the light guide plate arrangement does not have to take any partial luminous fluxes for the exit in the direction of the escape route, the light source assigned for the light guide disc arrangement can thus be configured in its luminous flux optimally with regard to the required luminance in the pictogram. Furthermore, it can be achieved that the light fluxes directed to the floor are optionally reinforced with the same lamp structure in a simple manner by additional arrangement of light sources. With such flexible construction concepts for rescue luminaires, the requirements of standard EN 1838 are also met, which calls for an increased level of lighting compared to the rescue routes themselves for lighting in the area of safety devices such as first aid points or fire fighting devices.

Furthermore, functional modules in which lamps are arranged can be used very well build compact, because the necessary operating devices (power supplies, electronic pre switching devices) can be implemented separately within another function module. An operating device can operate several lamps. An increased The space requirement of the individual function modules for larger system outputs is also limited the system length is distributable. This is particularly true for batons to be arranged in a rod shape belt modules for self-contained luminaires. This makes Pro very elegant and small file can even be used for large pictogram lights, which is a good design design of luminaire housings.

There is also the advantage that the lamp housing without a carrier or light guide disc separately can be used both for decorative lighting purposes and for pure path lighting, also in the area of safety lighting. This expands the range of applications of a corresponding luminaire family without additional tools cost significantly. The traceability of the system to a pure floodlight application is given with the modular principle by arranging additional side and / or additional profiles or design elements a wide range of product variations are possible. Furthermore, the construction principle shown minimizes manufacturing and maintenance Expenses because the functional modules do not or only when they are installed in the profiles  need to be slightly attached. They are through the inner contours of the profiles fixed without additional aids, the end caps are the only mounting elements for preventing displacement in the longitudinal direction of the profile.

The use of the latest light sources, such as cold cathode fluorescent lamps or lights diode rows, in addition to the pleasantly small design, have a very long service life 100,000 hours, which saves the user very little maintenance reached.

The arrangement of protective tubes to accommodate the functional modules means that Training of luminaires generally in protection class II according to the European luminaire standard EN 60598 possible, despite the use of metallic profile elements as luminaires housing. From a safety point of view, a higher quality version is achieved and the installation is simplified compared to standard products with Me Protection class I tall casings

The invention is explained using the following ways of carrying it out.

Fig. 13 shows the formation of an outer end cap of the floodlight shown in Fig. 12, wherein additional fittings are arranged on the base element according to Fig. 7.

The lamp shown in FIG. 1 in a first embodiment as an escape route luminaire 1 with a single battery has a basic profile 2 with end caps 10 , a light guide disk arrangement having a carrier disk 3 and a safety symbol 4 being implemented. Rope elements 5 for suspended ceiling mounting are attached to the end caps 10 . The power cord 52 and the bus or control line 53 are fed through the cable bushings 18 .

FIG. 2 shows the escape route luminaire 1 shown in FIG. 1 without assembly elements and feed lines in a partially exploded view. In basic profile 2 , the functional elements according to the invention are divided into three functional modules and arranged in floors, starting below directly above the carrier plate 3 with the narrowest module for the illuminant, the functional module lamp 6 , above the functional module battery 7 and above the functional module operating electronics 8 , The basic profile 2 is made of aluminum, all functional modules are arranged in protective tubes 9 made of transparent, thin-walled polycarbonate. They secure the electrical insulation to the basic profile as well as the mechanical fixation of the function modules.

The basic profile 2 also contains a gap-like contour 41 , which serves to receive the carrier disk 3 for the security symbol 4 or other pictograms and thus serves as a light exit opening. The gap width of this contour corresponds to the thickness of the carrier disk 3 . Both components are connected by means of screws or bolts 29 via lateral bores 44 in base profile 2 and carrier disk 3 .

The end caps serve to complete the basic profile 2 . They consist of a non-electrically conductive material, preferably thermoplastic such as polycarbonate. The same end cap is arranged symmetrically on each side of the basic profile 2 . They are constructed in two parts from an inner end cap 11 and an outer end cap 12 . The inner end cap 11 lies directly on the end face of the base profile 2 , is connected to it by two screws 28 and carries the contact unit 14 on the outward-facing side for contacting the functional modules with one another and to the outside with the luminous flux network and optionally necessary bus or Tax instructions.

Inner and outer end caps show common, mutually symmetrical contours 25 for receiving cable bushings 18 for the power cord and BUS or control lines. The cable feed thus takes place on the upper side of the end caps, cable feedthroughs 18 being arranged with a closed membrane, which can optionally be broken through when in use. The fixed connec tion of the outer end cap 12 with the inner end cap 11 and the base profile 2 takes place via four fastening screws 27 .

During assembly or service, after removing the outer end cap 12, the power supply terminal 19 and the terminal 20 for bus and control lines are accessible.

Fig. 3 shows the sectional view of the basic profile 2 , which is equipped with the function modules of an escape route luminaire according to FIGS . 1 and 2. The protective tubes 9 are provided with corresponding inner contours 39 , which are used to hold parts of the functional modules, in particular circuit boards, battery housings or other support systems. The inner contours 40 of the basic profile 2 are formed by radii, webs and edges in accordance with the outer geometry of the protective tubes 9 , so that these are fixed in their position without additional aids. Only the inner Kontu ren 39 of the protective tubes 9 are designed according to the geometry of the components of the function modules. The base profile 2 remains when using different components of the functi onsmodule always unchanged. Protective tubes 9 for functional modules of the same type always fit into the designated positions in the profile elements due to their identical outer geometry.

In FIG. 4 is a simplified diagram of a first embodiment of the shown in Fig. 1 and rescue lamp shown in Figure 2 with single battery with respect to the functional layout and electrical connection of the functional modules, wherein a first function module operating electronics 8, the electronic operating device for the Leuchtmit tel (ECG) 47 , The control electronics 48 and the charging electronics 49 , a second function module battery 7, the rechargeable battery 50 with electrical lines 51 , a third function module lamp 6, the illuminant 34 as a cold cathode fluorescent lamp with connecting leads 45 and connectors 23 and a contact unit 14 , the power terminal 19 , terminal for BUS or control lines 20 , a light-emitting diode 30 , a test button 31 and electrical connection technology 21 and 22 for functional modules with each other.

The mains voltage, the battery voltage, BUS and control signals as well as the electrical connections to the light emitting diode 30 and to the test button 31 are forwarded by the contact unit 14 directly via a plug connector 21 to the functional module operating electronics 8 . The LED 30 and the test button 31 are operated by the control electronics 48 , the LED signals the operating state of the lamp, in particular the function of the charge management, the test button is used to test the battery operation.

The connecting line 45 for the lamp operating voltage is connected directly to the operating electronics 8 function module and to the lamp function module via plug connector 23 . The battery voltage is not connected directly to the operating electronics 8 function module via a plug connector 22 , but is looped via the contact unit 14 , so the operating electronics 8 function module is completely dead when the plug connector 21 is released . A common ground connection is still implemented for all extra-low voltages and internal control signals.

Fig. 5 shows the formation of the inner end cap 11 , which is to be removed in the service and maintenance case from the basic profile 2 , from the side which is accessible for the establishment of the electrical connections for electrical installation when the outer end cap is removed. It carries the contact unit 14 , a one-sided, non-plated-through circuit board 15 , the conductor side pointing inwards. It is connected to the inner end cap 11 with three fastening screws SS. On this circuit board, the mains connection terminal 19 and the terminal 20 for bus or control signals are provided on the circuit board side.

Furthermore, the light-emitting diode 30 and the test button 31 are arranged, which protrude through the outer end cap for viewing and actuation purposes. Connectors 21 and 22 (see also FIG. 6) are arranged on the conductor side, the counterparts of which can be found on the functional modules to be contacted or on their connecting lines. The dimensions of the printed circuit board extend over the end faces of those functional modules that are to be contacted in the area of the basic profile 2 . The conductor tracks on the circuit board 15 make the necessary connections between the terminals 19 and 20 and the connectors 21 and 22 . The inner end cap 11 is also formed with contours 26 for realizing a strain relief when using flexible connecting lines and the contours 25 for receiving cable entries. The contours 25 are symmetrically divided with the outer end cap 12 executed ( Fig. 7).

Openings 24 are implemented both behind and below the printed circuit board 15 for carrying out internal wiring from the operating electronics function module to the lamp function module.

Fig. 6 shows the inner end cap 11 from that side which faces the basic profile during assembly and is used to make the electrical connections to the func ons modules. The inner end cap 11 has corresponding openings 24 for the plug connectors 21 and 22 and for carrying out wiring, which are adapted to the plug connectors and line geometries in the dimensions. Furthermore, the plug connector 21 is arranged as a touch-proof socket strip in surface mounting (SMD technology) on the conductor side of the printed circuit board 15 . The outward-facing side of the printed circuit board 15 (component side) thus remains free of dangerous voltages even without an additional cover. Furthermore, all live parts and contacts remain protected from contact even when the inner end cap 11 is removed from the base profile; the operational electronics functional module is separated from the mains and battery voltage by forcibly loosening the connector 21 , and it can be a safe service to replace the lamp or function modules.

Fig. 7 shows the outer end cap 12 , which is trough-shaped, is flush with the inner end cap, completely encloses it and thus forms a functional space 13 for the contact unit 14 . Outside there are contours 17 with threaded insert 16 for rope suspension or connection of the lamp with additional fastening elements. At the same time, the threaded insert 16 made of conductive material can be used via the end caps on both sides for the two-pole supply of low voltage to the contact unit. This enables low-voltage operation of the luminaire via an external power supply when installing with conductive cable elements.

A breakthrough 56 for the light-emitting diode serves for its detection from the outside, the breakthrough 57 allows the test button to be actuated from the outside. The contours 25 for receiving two cable entries are symmetrically divided with the inner end cap 11 ( Fig. 5).

Break-out contours 58 , which are shown as a taper of the side wall thicknesses, are used when arranging additional side fittings to open the necessary wiring paths.

In FIG. 8 is a particularly useful form is shown formed a protective tube for a function module lamp 6 in exploded view. It consists of a two-part protective tube with upper part 32 and lower part 33 for receiving the Trä gerplatte 35 , the cold cathode fluorescent lamp 34 used , for. B. with a length of 350 mm, determines the system size of the lamp. On the support plate 35 , which is designed as a printed circuit board, the lamp holders 36 are mounted, into which the lamp is clipped interchangeably. The supply of the lamp voltage takes place from a single-ended 2-pin connector 23 through corresponding conductor tracks on the circuit board to the lamp sockets 36 . Due to the two-part design of the protective tube, there is the possibility that a lamp can be changed without the support plate 35 having to be removed from the lower part 33 . The upper part 32 is clipped onto the lower part 33 and can be easily released and snapped on again. This means that the function module can be used flexibly.

FIGS. 9 and 10 show another embodiment of a multi-use lighting lamp according to the invention as an escape route 101, in which parts corresponding to parts of the Anord voltage according to the first embodiment correspond, characterized marked with a reference numbers, which is increased by 100. In this embodiment, in addition to the first embodiment, two side profiles 37 of the same length are arranged on the base profile 102 . They are screwed to the base profile 102 on corresponding tabs 42 on the upper side thereof. For this purpose, the basic profile 102 has a contour 43 arranged on the top left and right, which is set back somewhat to the surface in order to accommodate the tabs 42 without the height of the basic profile 102 being exceeded. In the basic profile 102 , the known function modules of the first embodiment are in turn arranged in protective tubes: function module battery 108 , function module operating electronics 107 and function module lamp 106 , the luminous flux of the illuminant 134 being coupled into the carrier disk 103 with safety signs 104 . A further function module lamp 106 is installed in the side profiles 37 on the left and right, the luminous flux of these modules is directed toward the path area located under the lamp in order to illuminate it. The end caps 110 are identical to the first embodiment functionally and structurally, but are geometrically designed so that they cover the end face contour of the entire system. This is achieved either by integrally forming the inner and outer end caps 111 , 112 in accordance with this geometry or by snapping additional elements onto the first embodiment of the inner and outer end caps 11 and 12 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and 5, 6 and 7 ,

The electrical connection of the function modules lamp 106 located in the side profiles 37 to the function module operating electronics 107 takes place at the end within the functional space of the outer end caps 112 by appropriate wiring and via plug connectors.

In Fig. 11, a further embodiment is a multi-function indicator according to the invention shown as an escape route lamp 201, in which parts corresponding to parts of an arrangement, according to the first embodiment correspond, ge with a reference mark are marked, which is increased by 200. In this embodiment, in contrast to the second embodiment, a further additional profile 38 is arranged below the basic profile 202 at a distance, which accommodates a function module lamp and the carrier disk 203 with safety signs 204 . This light guide disk arrangement is thus realized in a manner remote from the basic profile 202 . The basic profile 202 contains only the functional module operating electronics and the functional module battery.

The end caps 210 are in turn identical to the first and second embodiment, functionally and constructively constructed from the outer end cap 211 and the inner end cap 212 , but are geometrically designed so that they cover the frontal contour of the entire system. This is in turn achieved either by integrally trained end caps of this geometry or by snapping additional elements onto the shape of the end caps 10 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and 5, 6 and 7.

The electrical connection of the basic module lamp located in the additional profile 38 to the functional module operating electronics is also carried out on the front side within the functional space of the extended outer end caps 212 by appropriate wiring.

In Fig. 12, a further embodiment of the multifunctional light according to the invention is shown as a floodlight 301 for decorative lighting or as a path light without a carrier for pictograms, in which parts that correspond to parts of the arrangement according to the first embodiment are identified by a reference number, which around 300 is increased. On the base profile 302 , two side profiles 37 are arranged with lamps according to the embodiment in FIG. 9. The light exit openings are in accordance with the gap-shaped contours 341 in the side profiles 37 and in the base profile 302 , the protection against accidental contact with the lamps is always ensured by protective tubes of the function module lamp, and furthermore the interior is protected against the ingress of dirt. For a suspended ceiling mounting, corresponding rope elements 305 are attached to the outer end caps 312 , each with a fastening screw 354 .

FIG. 13 shows an outer end cap 312 of the floodlight shown in FIG. 12, which consists of a base element as the outer end cap 12 according to FIG. 7 and is supplemented with corresponding additional shaped pieces 46 . The geometry of these additional shaped pieces 46 corresponds to the cross-sectional shape of the side profiles 37 , so that they cover the end face completely constantly. The connection of the additional shaped pieces 46 to the base elements is realized by adhesive bonding. The contours 58 in the outer end caps 12 as Basisele elements are broken out to guide inner wiring in the direction of the front loading area of the side profiles 37 .

All lamp variants described are designed so that they are suitable with appropriate construction elements as accessories for the usual and already described types of assembly. These construction elements can be arranged according to their training at different locations, on the base profile 2 at the top by screwing in the area of the contour 43 or for ceiling mounting with suspension according to the threaded pieces 16 of the outer end caps 12 with screws 54 according to FIGS. 1 and 7th
