Abstract

The support for fixing a light fitting to a wall comprises two distinct parts (12A,12B). The first of these is a fixing element (12A) intended for attachment to a wall (11), and the second is the support (12B) which fits on to the fixing element and provides the mounting for the light fitting (10). The second part (12B) includes a main frame part (48) by which the fitting is attached to the fixing element. This may be attached in one of two different orientations, such that the light fitting extends parallel to the wall (as shown) with the connecting section (15) being attached to the centre of the main frame part (48), or such that the light fitting extends at right angles to the wall with the connection section being attached to one end of the main frame part (48).

Description

La présente invention concerne d'une manière générale la fixation d'un luminaire à un mur.The present invention relates generally fixing a light fixture to a wall.

Elle vise plus particulièrement, mais non nécessairement exclusivement, le cas où ce luminaire est un bloc autonome d'éclairage de sécurité ou un bloc de signalisation du type de ceux disposés à la vue dans les lieux publics pour porter à la connaissance de chacun une quelconque consigne de sécurité ou une quelconque information.More specifically, it does not necessarily exclusively, the case where this luminaire is a autonomous block of emergency lighting or a block of signage of the type displayed on the premises public to bring everyone's knowledge safety instructions or any information.

Mais, en variante, il peut s'agir tout aussi bien d'un autre type de luminaire, et, par exemple, d'une enseigne.Alternatively, however, it may also be a other type of luminaire, and, for example, a sign.

Le problème, pour l'implantation d'un tel luminaire, est que, suivant les installations, et tout en laissant la possibilité d'une éventuelle suspension au plafond, sa fixation à un mur doit pouvoir indifféremment se faire suivant l'une ou l'autre de deux positions distinctes, l'une pour laquelle le luminaire s'étend globalement parallèlement au mur, l'autre pour laquelle il s'étend au contraire sensiblement perpendiculairement à ce mur, suivant une disposition communément dite "en drapeau".The problem, for the implantation of such a luminaire, is that, depending on the facilities, and while leaving the possibility of a possible suspension from the ceiling, its fixing to a wall must be able to be done either according to one or the other of two distinct positions, one for which the luminaire extends generally parallel to the wall, the other for which it extends on the contrary substantially perpendicular to this wall, according to a layout commonly known as "in flag".

Dans le brevet français qui, déposé le 18 mai 1977 sous le No 77 15256, a été publié sous le No 2 391 573, il a été proposé, pour ce faire, une patère formée de deux parties distinctes, à savoir, d'une part, une partie de fixation, par une platine de laquelle elle est adaptée à être fixée au mur à équiper, et, d'une manière plus générale, à une quelconque surface de support, qu'il s'agisse d'un tel mur ou qu'il s'agisse d'un plafond, et, d'autre part, une partie de support, qui est à rapporter sur la partie de fixation, en formant en pratique un simple couvercle pour celle-ci, et qui est apte à recevoir suivant l'une ou l'autre de deux orientations différentes le luminaire à fixer, l'une de ces orientations correspondant à sa fixation parallèlement au mur, et l'autre correspondant à sa fixation en drapeau.In the French patent which, filed on May 18, 1977 under No 77 15256, was published under No 2 391 573, it has was proposed, to do this, a hook formed of two parts distinct, namely, on the one hand, a fixing part, by a plate from which it is adapted to be fixed to the wall to equip, and, more generally, to any support surface, whether such a wall or be a ceiling, and, on the other hand, a support part, which is to be attached to the fixing part, forming in convenient a simple cover for it, and which is suitable for receive according to one or the other of two orientations the fixture, one of these orientations corresponding to its fixing parallel to the wall, and the other corresponding to its flag fixing.

Cette disposition a donné et peut encore donner satisfaction.This provision has given and can still give satisfaction.

Mais, dans le cas où, comme en l'espèce, le raccordement électrique du luminaire se fait par simple enfichage, des moyens de connexion embrochables complémentaires, à broches et alvéoles, étant prévus à cet effet entre lui et un bornier porté par la partie de fixation de la patère ou bourré entre cette partie de fixation et la partie de support associée, elle a pour inconvénient de nécessiter de prévoir systématiquement sur le luminaire, en deux emplacements distincts de celui-ci, deux jeux d'organes de connexion, qui correspondent l'un à sa fixation parallèlement au mur, l'autre à sa fixation en drapeau, et dont un seul est effectivement utilisé en service.But, in the case where, as in the present case, the electrical connection of the luminaire is by simple plug-in, additional plug-in connection means, with pins and alveoli, being provided for this purpose between it and a terminal block carried by the part of fixing the hook or stuffed between this fixing part and the support part associated, it has the disadvantage of requiring to systematically plan on the luminaire, in two separate places from it, two sets of connection, one corresponding to its fixing parallel to the wall, the other to its flag fixing, and only one of which is actually used in service.

Cette duplication redondante des organes de connexion sur le luminaire se fait inévitablement au détriment des coûts.This redundant duplication of the connection elements on the luminaire inevitably comes at the expense of costs.

Dans la demande de brevet allemand No 24 13 006, la patère est en une seule partie, et, par son corps, le luminaire est rapporté sur cette patère suivant l'une ou l'autre de plusieurs orientations possibles.In German patent application No. 24 13 006, the hook is in a single part, and, by its body, the luminaire is attached to this hook according to one or the other of several possible orientations.

Mais le passage du luminaire d'une de ses positions à l'autre se fait par rotation autour d'un axe parallèle au mur, en sorte que, pour l'ensemble de ces positions, le luminaire reste toujours globalement dans un plan perpendiculaire au mur.But the passage of the luminaire from one of its positions to the other is done by rotation about an axis parallel to the wall, so that for all of these positions, the luminaire always remains generally in a plane perpendicular to the Wall.

Dans le brevet allemand No 888 231, le support servant de patère, qui, d'ailleurs, intervient comme s'il était en une seule partie, comporte, pour son application au mur, des facettes s'étendant suivant un profil transversal polygonal, en sorte que, pour l'ensemble de ses positions, le luminaire reste toujours parallèle au mur.In German Patent No. 888 231, the support serving as a coat hook, which, moreover, intervenes as if it were in a single part, includes, for its application to the wall, facets extending along a transverse polygonal profile, so that, for all of its positions, the luminaire always remains parallel on the wall.

De même, dans le brevet américain No 5 249 112, le luminaire reste toujours parallèle au mur.Likewise, in US Patent No. 5,249,112, the luminaire remains always parallel to the wall.

La présente invention a d'une manière générale pour objet une disposition permettant l'obtention de deux orientations orthogonales pour le luminaire tout en évitant l'inconvénient précédemment exposé et conduisant en outre à d'autres avantages.The present invention generally relates to a arrangement for obtaining two orthogonal orientations for the luminaire while avoiding the disadvantage previously exposed and leading to in addition to other advantages.

De manière plus précise, elle a pour objet un ensemble comportant un luminaire et une patère pour la fixation du luminaire à un mur, formée de deux parties distinctes, à savoir une partie de fixation, par une platine de laquelle elle est adaptée à être fixée au mur à équiper, et une partie de support, qui est à rapporter sur la partie de fixation à l'aide de moyens d'emboítement complémentaires dont une partie est prévue sur la partie de fixation et l'autre sur la partie de support, et qui est apte à recevoir le luminaire à fixer, cette patère étant d'une manière générale caractérisée en ce que, le luminaire étant muni d'un corps présentant un contour allongé, la partie de support comporte une poutre maítresse présentant un contour semblable à celui du corps du luminaire par laquelle elle est apte à être rapportée sur sa partie de fixation suivant l'une ou l'autre de deux orientations orthogonales l'une par rapport à l'autre, à savoir une première pour laquelle cette poutre maítresse s'étend parallèlement à la platine de la partie de fixation, en sorte que le luminaire s'étend alors lui-même parallèlement au mur, et une deuxième pour laquelle cette poutre maítresse s'étend perpendiculairement à cette platine, en sorte que le luminaire s'étend alors lui-même perpendiculairement au mur, et, donc, en drapeau la partie des moyens d'emboítement complémentaires prévue sur la partie de support comportant un premier jeu de moyens d'emboítement, situé dans une zone médiane de la poutre et par lequel la partie est rapportée sur la partie de fixation suivant sa première orientation, et un deuxième jeu de moyens d'emboítement, situé à proximité d'une extrémité de la poutre et par lequel la poutre est rapportée sur la partie de fixation suivant sa deuxième orientation.More specifically, it relates to a set comprising a luminaire and a hook for fixing the luminaire to a wall, consisting of two separate parts, namely a fixing part, by a plate from which it is adapted to be fixed to the wall to be fitted, and a support part, which is to be brought back on the fixing part using complementary fitting means including one part is provided on the fixing part and the other on the support part, and which is suitable for receiving the fixture to be fixed, this hook being in a way general characterized in that, the luminaire being provided with a body having a elongated outline, the support part comprises a master beam having a contour similar to that of the body of the luminaire by which it is able to be attached to its fixing part according to one or the other of two orientations orthogonal to each other, namely a first for which this master beam extends parallel to the plate of the fixing part, so that the luminaire then extends itself parallel to the wall, and a second for which this master beam extends perpendicular to this plate, in so that the luminaire then extends itself perpendicular to the wall, and, therefore, in flag the part of the complementary nesting means provided on the support part comprising a first set of nesting means, located in a median zone of the beam and by which the part is attached to the fixing part according to its first orientation, and a second set of means socket, located near one end of the beam and through which the beam is attached to the fixing part in its second orientation.

En bref, suivant l'invention, au lieu d'intervenir entre le luminaire et la patère, le choix entre les deux orientations envisageables intervient entre les deux parties constitutives de la patère.In short, according to the invention, instead of intervening between the luminaire and the hook, the choice between the two possible orientations intervenes between the two constituent parts of the coat hook.

Il en résulte, notamment, que, la fixation du luminaire sur la partie de support de la patère se faisant de manière immuable, quelle que soit sa position par rapport au mur, il suffit avantageusement de n'équiper ce luminaire que d'un seul jeu d'organes de connexion.It follows, in particular, that the fixing of the luminaire on the part of support of the hook making itself immutable, whatever its position relative to the wall, it is advantageously sufficient to equip this luminaire only with a single set of connecting members.

  • Tel qu'illustré sur ces figures, et, plus particulièrement, sur la figure 1, il s'agit, globalement, d'assurer la fixation d'un luminaire 10 à un mur 11.As illustrated in these figures, and, more particularly, in FIG. 1, it is, overall, securing a luminaire 10 to a wall 11.

    De manière connue en soi, la patère 12 mise en oeuvre à cet effet est formée de deux parties distinctes, à savoir, d'une part, une partie de fixation 12A, par laquelle elle est adaptée à être fixée au mur 11 à équiper, et, d'autre part, une partie de support 12B, qui est à rapporter sur la partie de fixation 12A, et qui est apte à recevoir le luminaire 10 à fixer.In a manner known per se, the hook 12 used for this purpose is formed of two distinct parts, namely, on the one hand, a fixing part 12A, by which it is adapted to be fixed to the wall 11 to be fitted, and, on the other hand, a support part 12B, which is to be reported on the part of fixing 12A, and which is suitable for receiving the luminaire 10 at to stare.

    Suivant l'invention, et conformément à des modalités décrites plus en détail ultérieurement, la partie de support 12B de la patère 12 est apte à être rapportée sur la partie de fixation 12A associée suivant l'une ou l'autre de deux orientations orthogonales l'une par rapport à l'autre, le luminaire 10 se trouvant disposé parallèlement au mur 11 pour l'une de ces orientations, figure 1, et s'étendant au contraire perpendiculairement à ce mur 11 pour l'autre de celles-ci, figure 17.According to the invention, and in accordance with modalities described in more detail later, the support part 12B of the hook 12 is suitable for being attached to the part of attachment 12A associated according to one or the other of two orthogonal orientations relative to each other, the luminaire 10 located parallel to wall 11 for one of these orientations, figure 1, and extending on the contrary perpendicular to this wall 11 for the other of these, figure 17.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, la partie de fixation 12A de la patère 12 comporte, sous la forme générale d'une pièce en équerre, d'une part, une platine 14, par laquelle elle est adaptée à être fixée au mur 11 à équiper, et, d'autre part, un bras 15, qui s'étend en porte à faux à compter de la platine 14, sensiblement perpendiculairement à celle-ci, et qui est apte à recevoir la partie de support 12B associée.In the embodiment shown, the part of fixing 12A of the hook 12 comprises, in the general form a square piece, on the one hand, a plate 14, by which it is adapted to be fixed to the wall 11 to be fitted, and, on the other hand, an arm 15, which extends cantilevered from of the plate 14, substantially perpendicular thereto, and which is capable of receiving the associated support part 12B.

    En pratique, le bras 15 s'étend en porte à faux à compter du bord supérieur de la platine 14.In practice, the arm 15 extends cantilevered at count from the upper edge of the plate 14.

    Pour le passage de moyens de fixation, tels que vis ou autres, non représentés, propres à permettre l'assujettissement de l'ensemble au mur 11 à équiper, cette platine 14 présente, de manière usuelle, et ainsi qu'il est mieux visible à la figure 3, divers perçages 16, allongés en boutonnière et disposés suivant des orientations différentes.For the passage of fastening means, such as screws or others, not shown, suitable for allowing subjugation of the assembly on the wall 11 to be fitted, this plate 14 has, in the usual way, and as it is better visible at the Figure 3, various holes 16, elongated buttonhole and arranged in different orientations.

    Pour le passage des câbles électriques nécessaires à la desserte du luminaire 10, la platine 14 présente, en outre, dans sa zone médiane, un large évidement 17, qui, dans la forme de réalisation représentée, est compartimenté en deux par une cloison médiane 18.For the passage of the electric cables necessary for the service of luminaire 10, plate 14 has, in addition, in its central area, a large recess 17, which, in the form shown, is divided into two by a center partition 18.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, la platine 14 présente, en saillie sur sa surface avant, à l'aplomb du bras 15, deux flasques 19, qui, parallèles l'un à l'autre, s'étendent à compter du bras 15, en concourant au raidissement de l'ensemble, et qui, au voisinage de l'évidement 17, se prolongent chacun respectivement par des becs 20.In the embodiment shown, the plate 14 presents, projecting from its front surface, directly above the arm 15, two flanges 19, which, parallel to each other, extend from arm 15, contributing to stiffening of the assembly, and which, in the vicinity of the recess 17, is each extend respectively by spouts 20.

    Ces becs 20 sont de nature à permettre, si désiré, le maintien, au droit de l'évidement 17, d'une barrette de connexion, non représentée, dont la tenue est assurée par la seule élasticité, et qui a à charge de former un relais entre les câbles électriques arrivant de l'extérieur et des câbles électriques, également non représentés, internes à la patère 12.These nozzles 20 are such as to allow, if desired, the maintenance, at the right of the recess 17, of a bar of connection, not shown, which is maintained by the single elasticity, and which is responsible for forming a relay between electrical cables coming from outside and cables electric, also not shown, internal to the hook 12.

    Pour son appui sur le mur 11 à équiper, la platine 14 comporte, en saillie sur sa surface arrière, au moins deux bossages 22, 23, qui, arrondis transversalement, sont établis à distance l'un de l'autre, parallèlement à ses bords supérieur et inférieur.For its support on the wall 11 to be fitted, the plate 14 has, projecting from its rear surface, at least two bosses 22, 23, which, rounded transversely, are established at a distance from each other, parallel to its upper edges and lower.

    Le bossage 22, qui s'étend en pratique sur toute la largeur de la platine 14, au voisinage du bord supérieur de celle-ci, est formé de manière rigide par la tranche de nervures 24 qui, parallèles l'une à l'autre, s'étendent, de place en place, le long de cette largeur, sensiblement perpendiculairement au bras 15.The boss 22, which extends in practice over the entire width of the plate 14, in the vicinity of the upper edge of it is rigidly formed by the edge of ribs 24 which, parallel to each other, extend from place in place, along this width, substantially perpendicular to the arm 15.

    Suivant l'invention, le bossage 23, qui, lui ne s'étend que sur une fraction de la largeur de la platine 14, dans la zone médiane de celle-ci, et au voisinage de son bord inférieur, appartient à une barrette 25, qui, distincte de la platine 14, est rapportée de manière réglable en position sur celle-ci, pour permettre un réglage d'assiette par rapport au mur 11 à équiper.According to the invention, the boss 23, which does not extends only over a fraction of the width of the plate 14, in the middle zone thereof, and in the vicinity of its edge lower, belongs to a bar 25, which, distinct from the plate 14, is attached in an adjustable manner to the position on this, to allow a trim adjustment relative to the wall 11 to be fitted.

    La barrette 25 comporte, à ses extrémités, deux bras 26, par lesquels elle est engagée, à coulissement, pour son guidage, dans des fentes 29 de la platine 14, et qui, pour sa retenue sur celle-ci, se terminent chacun par un crochet 30.The bar 25 has, at its ends, two arms 26, by which it is engaged, slidingly, for its guide, in slots 29 of the plate 14, and which, for its retained on it, each end with a hook 30.

    Pour le réglage en position de la barrette 25, des douilles taraudées 32 sont noyées, à la manière d'inserts, dans la platine 14, entre les fentes 29 de celle-ci, pour la mise en oeuvre de vis 33 servant de simples butées d'appui à cette barrette 25.To adjust the position of the bar 25, threaded inserts 32 are sunk, like inserts, into the plate 14, between the slots 29 thereof, for setting using screws 33 serving as simple abutments for supporting this bar 25.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, le bras 15 est d'un seul tenant avec la platine 14, et il a une largeur inférieure à celle de celle-ci, en intervenant dans sa zone médiane.In the embodiment shown, the arm 15 is integral with the plate 14, and has a width lower than that, by intervening in its area median.

    En outre, dans cette forme de réalisation, la partie de fixation 12A de la patère 12 comporte, à la racine de ce bras 15, un flasque 34, qui, de contour globalement arrondi en demi-cercle, relie latéralement, et de part et d'autre, le bras 15 à la platine 14, en s'étendant de la zone médiane de ce bras 15 aux bords latéraux de cette platine 14.Furthermore, in this embodiment, the part fixing 12A of the hook 12 comprises, at the root of this arm 15, a flange 34, which, of generally rounded outline in semicircle, connects laterally, and on both sides, the arm 15 to plate 14, extending from the middle zone of this arm 15 at the lateral edges of this plate 14.

    Préférentiellement, la partie de fixation 12A de la patère 12 comporte, intérieurement, une armature 35, qui, intervenant, elle aussi, à la manière d'un insert, s'étend pour partie au sein de sa platine 14, et, pour partie, au sein de son bras 15, et qui, par exemple, est en métal.Preferably, the fixing part 12A of the hook 12 has, internally, a frame 35, which intervening, too, like an insert, extends to part within its plate 14, and, in part, within its arm 15, which, for example, is made of metal.

    Pour le reste, cette partie de fixation 12A est en matière synthétique.For the rest, this fixing part 12A is in synthetic material.

    Préférentiellement, il est associé, à la partie de fixation 12A de la patère 12, un capot 36, formant couvercle, et indépendant de la partie de support 12B associée.Preferably, it is associated, with the part of fixing 12A of the hook 12, a cover 36, forming a cover, and independent of the associated support part 12B.

    Pour l'essentiel, et ainsi qu'il est mieux visible sur les figures 2 et 8, ce capot 36 comporte une paroi de façade 37, qui est hémicylindrique, au contour du flasque 34, et une paroi de fond 38, qui s'étend transversalement à la base de la paroi de façade 37. For the most part, and as it is better visible on Figures 2 and 8, this cover 36 has a front wall 37, which is semi-cylindrical, around the flange 34, and a bottom wall 38, which extends transversely to the base of the front wall 37.

    A sa partie supérieure, la paroi de façade 37 présente, dans sa zone médiane, une échancrure 40, prolongée par une gouttière 41, pour le passage des câbles électriques internes à la patère 12.At its upper part, the front wall 37 has, in its median zone, a notch 40, extended by a gutter 41, for the passage of electric cables internal to the hook 12.

    Pour son maintien, par simple encliquetage, sur la partie de fixation 12A de la patère 12, le capot 36 comporte, d'une part, en saillie sur sa paroi de fond 38, des crochets 42, qui, tel que schématisé en traits interrompus sur la figure 6 pour l'un d'eux, coopèrent, chacun respectivement, avec des bourrelets 43 que présente en correspondance en saillie à cet effet la platine 14 de cette partie de fixation 12A, en bordure de fentes 45 propres à leur engagement, et, d'autre part, au voisinage de la partie supérieure de la paroi de façade 37, mais en retrait par rapport à celle-ci, des ergots 46, qui, tel que schématisé en traits interrompus sur la figure 5 pour l'un d'eux, coopèrent en simple engagement avec des fentes 47 que présente, également, en correspondance, à cet effet, le flasque 34 de cette partie de fixation 12A, au voisinage des bords latéraux de la platine 14.For its maintenance, by simple snap-fastening, on the fixing part 12A of the hook 12, the cover 36 comprises, on the one hand, hooks on its bottom wall 38, hooks 42, which, as shown schematically in broken lines in the figure 6 for one of them cooperate, each respectively, with beads 43 that presents in correspondence projecting to this effect of the plate 14 of this fixing part 12A, at the edge slots 45 specific to their engagement, and, on the other hand, to the neighborhood of the upper part of the front wall 37, but set back from it, lugs 46, which, as shown schematically in broken lines in Figure 5 for one of them, cooperate in simple engagement with slots 47 that also presents, in correspondence, for this purpose, the flange 34 of this fixing part 12A, in the vicinity of the edges side of the plate 14.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, la partie de support 12B de la patère 12 comporte, globalement, d'une part, une poutre maítresse 48, par laquelle elle est apte à être rapportée sur la partie de fixation 12A à laquelle elle est associée, et, d'autre part, un organe de support 50, par lequel elle est apte à recevoir le luminaire 10.In the embodiment shown, the part of support 12B of the hook 12 generally comprises, on the one hand, a master beam 48, by which it is able to be attached to the fixing part 12A to which it is associated, and, on the other hand, a support member 50, by which it is suitable for receiving luminaire 10.

    Pour assurer l'assujettissement l'une à l'autre de la partie de support 12B et de la partie de fixation 12A de la patère 12, il est prévu, entre la poutre maítresse 48 de cette partie de support 12B et le bras 15 de cette partie de fixation 12A, des moyens d'emboítement complémentaires.To ensure the subjugation of the support part 12B and the fixing part 12A of the coat hook 12, it is provided between the master beam 48 of this support part 12B and the arm 15 of this fixing part 12A, complementary nesting means.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, ces moyens d'emboítement complémentaires comportent, en saillie sur la surface inférieure du bras 15, au moins un bossage 51, et, en creux sur la surface supérieure de la poutre maítresse 48, au moins deux cuvettes 52 qui, identiques l'une à l'autre, et complémentaires, chacune, du bossage 51 précédent, sont établies à distance l'une de l'autre, et, pour l'intervention d'une vis de fixation 53 propre à permettre l'assujettissement de la poutre maítresse 48 au bras 15, le bossage 51 du bras 15 comporte axialement un alésage 54 et le fond de chacune des cuvettes 52 de la poutre maítresse 48 comporte, en correspondance, un perçage 55, figure 12.In the embodiment shown, these means complementary fittings include, projecting from the lower surface of the arm 15, at least one boss 51, and, in hollow on the upper surface of the master beam 48, at at least two bowls 52 which, identical to each other, and each complementary to the previous boss 51 are established at a distance from each other, and, for intervention a fixing screw 53 suitable for allowing securing from the master beam 48 to the arm 15, the boss 51 of the arm 15 axially has a bore 54 and the bottom of each of bowls 52 of the master beam 48 comprises, in correspondence, a hole 55, figure 12.

    En pratique, dans la forme de réalisation représentée, il y a, en saillie sur la surface inférieure du bras 15, deux bossages 51, qui sont établis à une distance D l'un de l'autre, et la poutre maítresse 48 comporte, en correspondance, ainsi qu'il est mieux visible sur les figures 2 et 9, deux jeux J, J' de deux cuvettes 52, qui sont disposés suivant deux directions orthogonales l'un par rapport à l'autre, et dont les deux cuvettes 52 sont écartées l'une de l'autre d'une distance D égale à celle des bossages 51.In practice, in the embodiment shown, there are, projecting from the lower surface of the arm 15, two bosses 51, which are established at a distance D from one another, and the master beam 48 comprises, in correspondence, thus that it is better visible in FIGS. 2 and 9, two sets J, I 'of two bowls 52, which are arranged in two directions orthogonal to each other, and whose two bowls 52 are spaced from each other by a distance D equal to that of the bosses 51.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, la poutre maítresse 48 est largement allongée, avec, en plan, un contour légèrement en navette.In the embodiment shown, the beam Mistress 48 is largely elongated, with a contour in plan slightly by shuttle.

    L'un, J, des jeux de cuvettes 52 s'étend dans sa zone médiane, parallèlement à ses bords longitudinaux, c'est-à-dire parallèlement à sa direction d'allongement.One, J, of 52 sets of cups extends into its area median, parallel to its longitudinal edges, i.e. parallel to its direction of elongation.

    L'autre, J', des jeux de cuvettes 52 s'étend à proximité d'une de ses extrémités transversales, perpendiculairement à sa direction d'allongement.The other, J ', from sets of 52 bowls extends to proximity of one of its transverse ends, perpendicular to its direction of elongation.

    Préférentiellement, l'alésage 54 de chacun des bossages 51 du bras 15 de la partie de fixation 12A est taraudé et appartient à une douille 57 surmoulée dans un tel bossage 51 à la manière d'un insert, figure 4.Preferably, the bore 54 of each of the bosses 51 of arm 15 of fixing part 12A is tapped and belongs to a socket 57 molded in such a boss 51 like an insert, figure 4.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B comporte, en pleine surface, divers opercules défonçables 58.In the embodiment shown, the beam master 48 of the support part 12B comprises, in full surface, various knockouts 58.

    Elle présente, en outre, à sa périphérie, pour des raisons qui apparaítront ultérieurement, une feuillure 59.It also presents, at its periphery, for reasons which will appear later, a rebate 59.

    En pratique, cette feuillure 59 est formée par un bord tombé 60 qui, à l'une au moins des extrémités transversales de la poutre maítresse 48, présente, localement, une échancrure 61, pour le passage éventuel des câbles électriques internes à la patère 12. In practice, this rebate 59 is formed by an edge fallen 60 which at at least one of the transverse ends of the master beam 48, locally has a notch 61, for the possible passage of internal electric cables on the hook 12.

    Pour coopération avec la gouttière 41 du capot 36, l'un des flancs longitudinaux du bord tombé 60 présente, également, localement, dans sa partie médiane, une échancrure 63.For cooperation with the gutter 41 of the cover 36, one of the longitudinal sides of the fallen edge 60 has, also, locally, in its middle part, a notch 63.

    Pour des raisons qui apparaítront ultérieurement, l'autre de ces flancs longitudinaux présente, lui aussi, localement, dans sa zone médiane, une échancrure 64, au droit d'un cran 65 disposé en retrait.For reasons that will appear later, the other of these longitudinal sides also has locally, in its middle zone, a notch 64, at right a notch 65 set back.

    Par un réseau de nervures 66, la poutre maítresse 48 forme, enfin, sur sa surface inférieure, dans la forme de réalisation représentée, un chemin de câble 67, qui court sur toute sa longueur à compter de l'échancrure 61 de son bord tombé 60, et sur lequel interviennent, transversalement, à distance l'un de l'autre, deux serre-câble 68.Through a network of ribs 66, the master beam 48 forms, finally, on its lower surface, in the form of illustrated embodiment, a cable tray 67, which runs on its entire length from the notch 61 on its edge fell 60, and on which intervene, transversely, to distance from each other, two cable ties 68.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, l'organe de support 50 que présente la partie de support 12B de la patère 12 s'étend dans la zone médiane de la poutre maítresse 48, perpendiculairement à celle-ci, et le long d'un de ses bords longitudinaux.In the embodiment shown, the support 50 presented by the support part 12B of the hook 12 extends in the middle zone of the master beam 48, perpendicular to it, and along one of its edges longitudinal.

    Cette partie de support 12B a donc, globalement, une configuration en T, dont le jambage est formé par l'organe de support 50 et la traverse par la poutre maítresse 48.This support part 12B therefore has, overall, a T-shaped configuration, the jamb of which is formed by the support 50 and crosses it with the master beam 48.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, l'organe de support 50 forme une pièce qui, pour faciliter la réalisation de l'ensemble, est distincte de la poutre maítresse 48 et est rapportée sur celle-ci par des vis de fixation 70, figures 2 et 9.In the embodiment shown, the support 50 forms a part which, to facilitate the realization from the assembly, is distinct from the master beam 48 and is attached thereon by fixing screws 70, Figures 2 and 9.

    Globalement, cet organe de support 50 comporte une platine 71, qui s'étend en bordure du bord longitudinal de la poutre maítresse 48 le plus éloigné du jeu J de cuvettes 52, une console 72, qui forme des oreilles 73 pour le passage des vis de fixation 70, et deux flasques latéraux 75, qui raccordent la console 72 à la platine 71, en s'étendant le long des bords latéraux de celle-ci.Overall, this support member 50 includes a plate 71, which extends along the longitudinal edge of the master beam 48 furthest from the set J of bowls 52, a console 72, which forms ears 73 for the passage of fixing screw 70, and two lateral flanges 75, which connect the console 72 to the plate 71, extending along side edges of it.

    Pour le raccordement électrique du luminaire 10, l'organe de support 50 porte un bornier 76. For the electrical connection of luminaire 10, the support member 50 carries a terminal block 76.

    Préférentiellement, et tel que représenté, ce bornier 76 est rapporté de manière amovible sur l'organe de support 50, pour faciliter son raccordement aux câbles électriques internes à la patère 12, et, pour le passage de ceux-ci, la platine 71 de l'organe de support 50 est ajourée par un large évidemment 77.Preferably, and as shown, this terminal block 76 is removably attached to the support member 50, to facilitate its connection to internal electrical cables to the hook 12, and, for the passage of these, the plate 71 of the support member 50 is perforated by a wide obviously 77.

    En pratique, dans la forme de réalisation représentée, le bornier 76 est encliqueté sur l'organe de support 50, les flasques latéraux 75 de celui-ci formant localement, à cet effet, des pattes 78, conformées en crochet et élastiquement déformables.In practice, in the embodiment shown, the terminal block 76 is snapped onto the support member 50, the lateral flanges 75 thereof forming locally, at this effect, legs 78, shaped hook and elastically deformable.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, le luminaire 10 est supposé être, à titre d'exemple, un bloc autonome d'éclairage de sécurité.In the embodiment shown, the luminaire 10 is assumed to be, for example, a self-contained block security lighting.

    Un tel luminaire 10 ne relevant pas, en propre, de la présente invention, il ne sera pas décrit dans tous ses détails ici.Such a luminaire 10 does not, in itself, fall under the present invention, it will not be described in all its details here.

    Seuls en sont décrits les éléments nécessaires à la compréhension de l'invention.Only the elements necessary for the understanding of the invention.

    Il suffira, pour l'essentiel, d'indiquer, à ce sujet, que, pour le support d'une source de lumière 79, constituée par exemple par un tube fluorescent, tel que schématisé en traits interrompus sur la figure 15, ce luminaire 10 comporte un corps 80 renfermant, par lui-même, tous les éléments nécessaires à la desserte de cette source de lumière 79.It will be sufficient, for the most part, to indicate, on this subject, that, for the support of a light source 79, constituted by example by a fluorescent tube, as shown schematically in lines interrupted in FIG. 15, this luminaire 10 comprises a body 80 containing, by itself, all the elements necessary for serving this light source 79.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, le corps 80 est globalement allongé, suivant un contour, légèrement en navette, semblable à celui de la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B de la patère 12, et le logement 81 qu'il présente pour la mise en place de la source de lumière 79 s'étend longitudinalement, en creux, à sa surface inférieure, dans la zone médiane de celle-ci.In the embodiment shown, the body 80 is generally elongated, following a contour, slightly in shuttle, similar to that of the master beam 48 of the support part 12B of the hook 12, and the housing 81 which it present for the placement of the light source 79 extends longitudinally, recessed, at its lower surface, in the middle area of it.

    Abstraction faite de son contour légèrement en navette, le corps 80 est globalement parallélépipédique.Leaving aside its slightly shuttle, the body 80 is generally parallelepiped.

    Suivant l'invention, il est prévu, entre, d'une part, l'organe de support 50 que comporte la partie de support 12B de la patère 12, et, d'autre part, le corps 80 du luminaire 10, des moyens d'emboítement complémentaires, à nervures 83 et rainures 84, pour un montage de ce corps 80 sur cet organe de support 50 par simple coulissement.According to the invention, there is provided, on the one hand, the support member 50 which comprises the support part 12B of the hook 12, and, on the other hand, the body 80 of the luminaire 10, complementary fitting means, with ribs 83 and grooves 84, for mounting this body 80 on this member of support 50 by simple sliding.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, les nervures 83 appartiennent à l'organe de support 50, et elles font saillie sur la surface extérieure des flasques latéraux 75 de celui-ci.In the embodiment shown, the ribs 83 belong to the support member 50, and they make projection on the outer surface of the side flanges 75 of this one.

    Il s'agit en pratique de nervures dont la section transversale est globalement en queue d'aronde.In practice, these are ribs whose cross section transverse is generally in dovetail.

    Corollairement, les rainures 84 appartiennent au corps 80, et elles ont globalement une section transversale en queue d'aronde complémentaire de la précédente.As a corollary, the grooves 84 belong to the body 80, and generally have a tail cross section dovetail complementary to the previous one.

    En pratique, ces rainures 84 affectent les flancs latéraux 85 d'un évidement 86 que le corps 80 du luminaire 10 présente localement dans sa zone médiane pour son emboítement sur l'organe de support 50, figure 13.In practice, these grooves 84 affect the sides side 85 of a recess 86 that the body 80 of the luminaire 10 present locally in its middle zone for nesting on the support member 50, FIG. 13.

    Globalement, les nervures 83 de l'organe de support 50 et les rainures 84 du corps 80 du luminaire 10 s'étendent transversalement par rapport à la poutre maítresse 48, parallèlement au plan de celle-ci.Overall, the ribs 83 of the support member 50 and the grooves 84 of the body 80 of the luminaire 10 extend transversely with respect to the master beam 48, parallel to the plane thereof.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, il est prévu, entre le corps 80 du luminaire 10 et la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B de la patère 12, des moyens d'engagement complémentaires, à tenons 88 et mortaises 89, pour confirmer le blocage de ce corps 80 sur cette poutre maítresse 48.In the embodiment shown, it is planned, between the body 80 of the luminaire 10 and the master beam 48 of the support part 12B of the hook 12, means of additional engagement, with tenons 88 and mortises 89, for confirm the blocking of this body 80 on this master beam 48.

    En pratique, deux tenons 88 sont prévus, et ils appartiennent à la poutre maítresse 48, en faisant saillie, à distance l'un de l'autre, et parallèlement l'un à l'autre, sur la tranche d'un des flancs longitudinaux de son bord tombé 60, figures 10 et 11.In practice, two studs 88 are provided, and they belong to the master beam 48, projecting, to distance from each other, and parallel to each other, on the edge of one of the longitudinal flanks of its fallen edge 60, Figures 10 and 11.

    En correspondance, le corps 80 du luminaire 10 présente, en creux, sur sa surface supérieure, deux mortaises 89, qui, parallèles l'une à l'autre, débouchent également sur sa face arrière, en étant chacune respectivement disposées de part et d'autre de l'évidement 86. In correspondence, the body 80 of the luminaire 10 presents, in hollow, on its upper surface, two mortises 89, which, parallel to each other, also lead to its rear face, each being respectively arranged with on either side of the recess 86.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, il est prévu, également, entre le corps 80 du luminaire 10 et la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B de la patère 12, des moyens d'encliquetage, pour assurer le maintien de ce corps 80 sur cette partie de support 12B au terme de son engagement sur l'organe de support 50 que comporte celle-ci.In the embodiment shown, it is also provided between the body 80 of the luminaire 10 and the master beam 48 of the support part 12B of the hook 12, latching means, to ensure the maintenance of this body 80 on this support part 12B at the end of its engagement on the support member 50 that it comprises.

    En pratique, ces moyens d'encliquetage comportent, sur la poutre maítresse 48, le cran 65 accessible à la faveur de l'échancrure 64 affectant l'un des flancs longitudinaux de son bord tombé 60, et, sur le corps 80 du luminaire 10, un cran 90 porté par une languette élastiquement déformable 91, qui, portée en saillie par ce corps 80 sur sa surface supérieure, dans la zone médiane de celle-ci, s'étend parallèlement à cette surface supérieure, en direction de la face avant du corps 80, figures 2, 13 et 14.In practice, these latching means comprise, on master beam 48, notch 65 accessible thanks to notch 64 affecting one of the longitudinal flanks of its dropped edge 60, and, on the body 80 of the luminaire 10, a notch 90 carried by an elastically deformable tongue 91, which, carried by this body 80 on its upper surface, in the middle zone thereof, extends parallel to this upper surface, towards the front face of the body 80, Figures 2, 13 and 14.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, il est prévu, par ailleurs, entre le corps 80 du luminaire 10 et le bornier 76 porté par l'organe de support 50, des moyens de connexion embrochables complémentaires, à alvéoles 93 et broches 94, pour un raccordement par simple enfichage du corps 80 au bornier 76 lors même de l'engagement de ce corps 80 sur l'organe de support 50.In the embodiment shown, it is provided, moreover, between the body 80 of the luminaire 10 and the terminal block 76 carried by the support member 50, means for additional plug-in connection, with cells 93 and pins 94, for connection by simply plugging in the body 80 to terminal block 76 even when this body is engaged 80 on the support member 50.

    En pratique, dans la forme de réalisation représentée, les alvéoles 93 sont portés par le bornier 76, et les broches 94, portées par le corps 80 du luminaire 10, font saillie sur le fond de l'évidement 86 de ce corps 80, parallèlement aux surfaces supérieure et inférieure de celui-ci.In practice, in the embodiment shown, the cells 93 are carried by the terminal block 76, and the pins 94, carried by the body 80 of the luminaire 10, protrude on the bottom of the recess 86 of this body 80, parallel to the upper and lower surfaces thereof.

    Dans la forme de réalisation plus particulièrement représentée sur les figures 1 à 16, le luminaire 10 comporte, en sus de son corps 80, un capot 95, qui est translucide, et qui est rapporté, de manière amovible, sur ce corps 80, à la surface inférieure de celui-ci, de manière à recouvrir le logement 81 qui y est prévu pour la mise en place d'une source de lumière 79.In the embodiment more particularly shown in FIGS. 1 to 16, the luminaire 10 comprises, in addition to its body 80, a cover 95, which is translucent, and which is removably attached to this body 80, at the lower surface thereof, so as to cover the housing 81 which is provided there for the installation of a source of light 79.

    En pratique, ce capot 95 a un contour allongé, légèrement en navette, identique à celui du corps 80, pour former en quelque sorte un prolongement vers le bas de celui-ci, de la même manière que ce corps 80 forme un prolongement vers le bas de la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B de la patère 12.In practice, this cover 95 has an elongated outline, slightly in shuttle, identical to that of body 80, for somehow form a downward extension of this one, in the same way as this body 80 forms a downward extension of the center beam 48 of the part support 12B of the hook 12.

    En forme générale de cuvette, il présente, à chacune de ses extrémités transversales, une fente 96, pour coopérer en encliquetage avec une patte 97, élastiquement déformable et conformée en crochet, que le corps 80 présente en correspondance en saillie sur sa surface inférieure, figures 15 et 16.In the general shape of a bowl, it presents, to each from its transverse ends, a slot 96, for cooperating snap-in with a tab 97, elastically deformable and shaped hook, that the body 80 has in correspondence projecting from its lower surface, figures 15 and 16.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, enfin, le corps 80 du luminaire 10 est gainé par un fourreau 99, qui s'étend librement entre, d'une part, la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B de la patère 12, et, d'autre part, le capot 95, en étant retenu par celui-ci, et qui est donc amovible.In the embodiment shown, finally, the body 80 of luminaire 10 is sheathed by a sheath 99, which extends freely between, on the one hand, the master beam 48 of the support part 12B of the hook 12, and, on the other hand, the hood 95, being retained by it, and which is therefore removable.

    Pour la retenue du fourreau 99, qui est par exemple métallique, le capot 95 présente, en saillie sur sa surface extérieure, tout au long de celle-ci, un bourrelet 100, cependant que, à sa partie supérieure, le fourreau 99 s'emboíte dans la feuillure 59, prévue à cet effet, de la poutre maítresse 48.For retaining the sheath 99, which is for example metallic, the cover 95 has, projecting from its surface outside, all along the latter, a bead 100, however, at its upper part, the sleeve 99 fits in the rebate 59, provided for this purpose, of the beam mistress 48.

    Au montage, il peut par exemple être procédé comme suit.For mounting, it can for example be carried out as follows.

    Dans un premier temps, la patère 12 est d'abord mise en place sur le mur 11 à équiper.At first, the hook 12 is first put in place on wall 11 to be fitted.

    Il suffit, pour cela, de fixer à ce mur 11 la partie de fixation 12A de cette patère 12, de rapporter, verticalement, de bas en haut, avec l'orientation choisie, sur cette partie de fixation 12A, la partie de support 12B, suivant la flèche F1 de la figure 2, et d'assurer le câblage du bornier 76 porté par cette dernière.To do this, simply attach the part 11 to this wall. fixing 12A of this hook 12, to bring back, vertically, from bottom to top, with the chosen orientation, on this fixing part 12A, the support part 12B, according to arrow F1 in Figure 2, and ensure the wiring of the terminal block 76 carried by the latter.

    Ce câblage peut par exemple se faire directement à partir des câbles électriques provenant de l'extérieur, ou, comme déjà précédemment indiqué, il peut se faire par l'intermédiaire d'une barrette de connexion rapportée sur la platine 14 de la partie de fixation 12A et de câbles électriques internes à cette dernière. This wiring can for example be done directly to from electrical cables coming from outside, or, as already indicated, it can be done by via a connection strip attached to the plate 14 of the fixing part 12A and cables electric internal to the latter.

    Dans l'un et l'autre cas, la mise en place du capot 36 sur la partie de fixation 12A peut se faire après la mise en place de la partie de support 12B ou avant cette dernière.In either case, the installation of the cover 36 on the fixing part 12A can be done after the setting in place of or before the support part 12B.

    La mise en place du capot 36 n'implique en effet qu'un mouvement vertical de celui-ci, de bas en haut, suivant la flèche F1 de la figure 2, jusqu'à son encliquetage sur la partie de fixation 12A à laquelle il est associé.The installation of the cover 36 in fact only involves vertical movement of it, from bottom to top, following the arrow F1 in FIG. 2, until it clicks into place on the fixing part 12A with which it is associated.

    Si désiré, la patère 12 peut alors être laissée en attente jusqu'à la finition de l'immeuble concerné, le bornier 76 répondant par lui-même à toutes les exigences de sécurité requises.If desired, the hook 12 can then be left in wait until the building concerned is finished, the terminal block 76 self-fulfilling all security requirements required.

    Il suffit, ensuite, après cette finition, de rapporter le corps 80 du luminaire 10 sur la partie de support 12B de la patère 12, en l'engageant, horizontalement, par son évidement 86, sur l'organe de support 50 que comporte à cet effet cette dernière, suivant la flèche F2 de la figure 2, d'engager, verticalement, de bas en haut, sur le corps 80, le fourreau 99, suivant la flèche F3 de cette figure 2, et; enfin, d'encliqueter, verticalement, de bas en haut, sur le corps 80, le capot 95, suivant la flèche F4 de la figure 2.It is enough, then, after this finishing, to bring back the body 80 of the luminaire 10 on the support part 12B of the hook 12, engaging it, horizontally, by its recess 86, on the support member 50 which this purpose comprises for this purpose last, following arrow F2 of FIG. 2, to engage, vertically, from bottom to top, on the body 80, the sheath 99, along arrow F3 of this figure 2, and; finally, to snap, vertically, from bottom to top, on the body 80, the cover 95, along arrow F4 in FIG. 2.

    En pratique, le fourreau 99 est ajusté serré.In practice, the sheath 99 is adjusted tight.

    Lorsque, comme indiqué, il est métallique, il confère, avantageusement, à l'ensemble, un aspect métallique, cependant que, intérieurement, une double isolation se trouve assurée, ce qui, en permettant à l'ensemble de satisfaire aux exigences normatives en la matière, évite d'avoir à prévoir une quelconque mise à la terre.When, as indicated, it is metallic, it confers, advantageously, overall, a metallic appearance, however that, internally, double insulation is ensured, which, by allowing the whole to meet the requirements normative in the matter, avoids having to provide a any grounding.

    Lorsque, comme représenté sur la figure 1, le luminaire 10 doit être disposé parallèlement au mur 11, c'est par son premier jeu J de cuvettes 52 que la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B de la patère 12 est engagée sur les bossages 51 du bras 15 de la partie de fixation 12A sur laquelle elle doit être rapportée.When, as shown in Figure 1, the luminaire 10 must be placed parallel to wall 11, this is by its first set J of bowls 52 that the master beam 48 of the support part 12B of the hook 12 is engaged on the bosses 51 of the arm 15 of the fixing part 12A on which it should be reported.

    La poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B s'étend alors parallèlement à la platine 14 de la partie de fixation 12A. The master beam 48 of the support part 12B then extends parallel to the plate 14 of the part of fixing 12A.

    En variante, lorsque, comme représenté à la figure 17, le luminaire 10 doit être disposé en drapeau, perpendiculairement au mur 11, c'est au contraire par son deuxième jeu J' de cuvettes 52 que la poutre maítresse 48 coopère avec le bras 15.Alternatively, when, as shown in Figure 17, the luminaire 10 must be arranged in a flag, perpendicular to wall 11, it is on the contrary by its second set J 'of bowls 52 that the master beam 48 cooperates with the arm 15.

    La poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B s'étend alors perpendiculairement à la platine 14 de la partie de fixation 12A.The master beam 48 of the support part 12B then extends perpendicular to the plate 14 of the part fixing 12A.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, le corps 80 du luminaire 10 présente, à sa surface inférieure, de part et d'autre du logement 81 prévu pour la mise en place de la source de lumière 79, des moyens d'encliquetage 103, pour la suspension éventuelle d'une plaque translucide 104, de nature à en faire, si désiré, un bloc de signalisation, cette plaque translucide 104 pouvant par exemple comporter à cet effet, de manière connue en soi, de quelconques pictogrammes.In the embodiment shown, the body 80 of luminaire 10 has, on its lower surface, both other of the housing 81 provided for the establishment of the source light 79, latching means 103, for the possible suspension of a translucent plate 104, of a nature to make it, if desired, a signaling block, this plate translucent 104 which may for example include, for this purpose, in a manner known per se, of any pictograms.

    Cette plaque translucide 104, qui est destinée à être éclairée par sa tranche par la source de lumière 79, ne relève pas par elle-même de la présente invention, et elle ne sera donc pas décrite en détail ici.This translucent plate 104, which is intended to be illuminated by its edge by the light source 79, does not fall not by itself of the present invention, and it will not therefore not described in detail here.

    Elle n'a en outre été que partiellement schématisée, en traits interrompus, sur la figure 18.It was also only partially schematized, in broken lines in Figure 18.

    Il suffira d'indiquer que, suivant l'invention, elle est équipée de deux broches 105 qui, disposées parallèlement l'une à l'autre, à distance l'une de l'autre, le long de son bord supérieur, s'étendent perpendiculairement à son plan, en la traversant de part en part, à la faveur, par exemple, chacune, d'une patte 106.It will suffice to indicate that, according to the invention, it is equipped with two pins 105 which, arranged in parallel to each other, at a distance from each other, along its upper edge, extend perpendicular to its plane, in crossing it right through, in favor, for example, each with a tab 106.

    Pour chacune des extrémités de ces broches 105, les moyens d'encliquetage 103 comportent une échancrure 108, qui, ouvrant vers le bas par un débouché 109 de largeur supérieure à leur diamètre, est globalement coudée en équerre et se termine en cul-de-sac par un fond 110 arrondi à ce diamètre, en étant bordée, vers le bas, par une patte 111, qui referme sur plus de 180° le fond 110, et qui est élastiquement déformable. For each of the ends of these pins 105, the latching means 103 include a notch 108, which, opening downwards through an outlet 109 of greater width to their diameter, is generally angled at right angles and ends in a cul-de-sac with a bottom 110 rounded to this diameter, being bordered, downwards, by a tab 111, which closes over more than 180 ° the bottom 110, and which is elastically deformable.

    Conjointement, il est substitué au capot 95 précédent, un capot 95' présentant sur son fond une fente 112 pour le passage de la plaque translucide 104.Jointly, it is substituted for the previous cover 95, a cover 95 ′ having on its bottom a slot 112 for the passage of the translucent plate 104.

    A la différence du capot 95 précédent, ce capot 95' peut être opaque si désiré.Unlike the previous cover 95, this cover 95 ' can be opaque if desired.

    Pour le reste, le capot 95' a la même configuration que le capot 95, et il présente donc, comme lui, des fentes 96 lui permettant d'être rapporté de manière amovible par encliquetage sur les pattes 97 du corps 80 du luminaire 10.For the rest, the cover 95 'has the same configuration that the cover 95, and therefore has, like him, slots 96 allowing it to be removably attached by snap-fastening on the legs 97 of the body 80 of the luminaire 10.

    Dans ce qui précède, il a été supposé que le luminaire 10 devait être fixé à un mur 11.In the above, it has been assumed that the luminaire 10 had to be fixed to a wall 11.

    Mais il possible, si désiré, de le suspendre à un plafond, tel que schématisé à la figure 19.But it is possible, if desired, to hang it on a ceiling, as shown in Figure 19.

    Dans ce cas, seule la poutre maítresse 48 de la partie de support 12B de la patère 12 est utilisée.In this case, only the master beam 48 of the part support 12B of the hook 12 is used.

    Il suffit, pour cela, de mettre à profit certains de ses opercules défonçables 58 pour l'implantation de suspentes 114.It is enough, for this, to take advantage of some of its knockouts 58 for the installation of lines 114.

    Si ces suspentes 114 sont creuses, elle peuvent assurer par elles-mêmes le cheminement des câbles électriques nécessaires.If these lines 114 are hollow, they can ensure by themselves the routing of electric cables required.

    En variante, d'autres opercules défonçables 58 peuvent être mis à profit pour la traversée de ces câbles électriques.Alternatively, other knockouts 58 may be taken advantage of for crossing these electrical cables.

    Les dispositions correspondantes relevant de l'homme de l'art, elles ne seront pas décrites plus en détail ici.The corresponding human provisions of art, they will not be described in more detail here.

    Il ressort de ce qui précède que, au lieu d'être considérée comme précédemment, comme appartenant à la patère 12, la partie de support 12B de cette patère 12 peut être aussi bien considérée comme appartenant au luminaire 10.It follows from the above that, instead of being considered previously, as belonging to the coat hook 12, the support part 12B of this hook 12 can also be well regarded as belonging to luminaire 10.

    Cette partie de support 12B, qui est solidaire du corps 80 du luminaire 10 par l'intermédiaire de l'organe de support 50 qu'elle comporte, forme, en effet, avec ce corps 80, et, le cas échéant, avec le fourreau 99 et le capot 95, 95' éventuellement associé, un sous-ensemble unitaire, et elle est propre par elle-même à la fixation de ce sous-ensemble unitaire à une quelconque surface de support, qu'il s'agisse d'un mur 11 ou d'un plafond. This support part 12B, which is integral with the body 80 of luminaire 10 by means of the support 50 which it comprises, forms, in fact, with this body 80, and, if necessary, with the sheath 99 and the cover 95, 95 ' possibly associated, a unitary subset, and it is proper by itself to the fixing of this unitary sub-assembly to any support surface, be it a wall 11 or a ceiling.

    Elle comporte, pour ce faire, globalement, comme précédemment indiqué, une poutre maítresse 48, par laquelle elle est apte à être rapportée sur la surface de support à équiper, et un organe de support 50, par lequel elle est apte à recevoir le corps 80 du luminaire 10 à fixer, avec des moyens d'emboítement à nervures 83 et rainures 84 entre cet organe de support 50 et ce corps 80, pour un montage du corps 80 sur l'organe de support 50 par simple coulissement.To do this, it generally includes, as previously indicated, a master beam 48, through which it is able to be attached to the support surface at equip, and a support member 50, by which it is adapted to receive the body 80 of the luminaire 10 to be fixed, with means interlocking ribs 83 and grooves 84 between this member support 50 and this body 80, for mounting the body 80 on the support member 50 by simple sliding.
