Abstract

In order to simplify mounting in a mounting ring (10) that can be clamped in an opening (21) of the suspension ceiling, the device has a plurality of segments which delimit an annular opening and are made of elastomeric material. These segments (16) are mounted in the mounting ring and can be pressed together by means of clamping parts (17) which can be operated from below, so that the inside diameter of the segments (16) is reduced by the process of being pressed together. The light fixture (12) is held firm in this way. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung gemäß dem Ober­begriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Wenn Beleuchtungskörper in abgehängten Decken eingebaut werden (z.B. als Down-Lights), dann sind bei bekannten Vorrichtungen, aufwendige Rahmengestelle erforderlich, die durch die Deckenöffnung oberhalb der abgehängten Decke montiert werden müssen. Da die Einbautiefe durch das Rahmengestell vorgegeben ist, muß die Einstellung des Beleuchtungskörpers vor dem Einbau des Down-Lights erfolgen.If lighting fixtures are installed in suspended ceilings (e.g. as downlights), then with known devices, complex frame frames are required, which must be installed through the ceiling opening above the suspended ceiling. Since the installation depth is determined by the frame, the lighting fixture must be adjusted before installing the downlight.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Montagevorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, mit der der Be­leuchtungskörper von unten in beliebiger Einbautiefe fi­xiert werden kann.The object of the invention is to provide a mounting device of the type mentioned at the outset, with which the lighting fixture can be fixed from below at any installation depth.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kennzeich­nenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention can be found in the subclaims.

Anhand der Zeichnung, in der ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung dargestellt ist, sollen die Erfindung sowie weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Verbesserungen der Erfindung näher erläutert und beschrieben werden.Based on the drawing, in which an embodiment of the invention is shown, the invention and further advantageous refinements and improvements of the invention are to be explained and described in more detail.

Ein Deckeneinbauring 10 für eine zylindrische Leuchte 12 besitzt im Querschnitt eine L-Form, deren einer Schenkel 20 in eine Öffnung 21 in einer abgehängten Decke 14 un­tergebracht bzw. eingeschoben ist, wogegen der radial nach außen ragende Schenkel 22 flanschartig unter die Decke 14, die Öffnung 21 umfassende, angeschlagen ist. An dem Einbauring 10 und zwar an der Stirnseite des Ste­ges 20, der kreiszylinderförmig ausgebildet ist, sind Schraubenbolzen 23 befestigt, deren Längsachse parallel zur Mittelachse des Deckenringes 10 verläuft. Mittels der Schraubenbolzen 23 können Klemmstücke 13 festge­klemmt werden, wobei die Decke 14 zwischen dem Flansch­rand 22 und den Klemmstücken 13 mittels auf die Schrau­ benbolzen 23 aufgeschraubter Muttern 24 festgeklemmt wird. Das Anziehen der Schraubenmuttern 24 auf den Schraubbolzen 23 erfolgt vor dem Einbau der Leuchte 12. Nach elektrischem Anschluß wird der Beleuchtungskörper 12 von unten in den Deckeneinbauring 10 eingeschoben. Die Verklemmung des Beleuchtungskörpers 12 erfolgt mit­tels Gummisegmenten 16, die in einen Rücksprung 25 am Einbauring 10 eingelegt sind und mittels Druckplatten 17, die auf den Gummisegmenten 16 aufliegen, verquetscht werden, so daß aus dem Zwischenraum zwischen den Druck­platten 17 und dem Rücksprung 25 Gummiwulste 18 heraus kommen, die den lichten Innendurchmesser verringern und zwar soweit, daß sich die Gummisegmente 16 mit ihren Gummiwulsten 18 von außen gegen den Beleuchtungskörper 12 andrücken. Das Verquetschen der Gummisegmente 16 er­folgt mittels den Einbauring 10 durchdringender Schrau­ben 15, die nach Einbau des Beleuchtungskörpers 12 bzw. nach dessen Einsetzen von unten angezogen werden können, so daß die Gummisegmente den Beleuchtungskörper 12 fest­halten. Der Beleuchtungskörper 12 wird dabei in jeder beliebigen Einbautiefe festgehalten und nach dem Lösen der Schrauben gehen die Gummisegmente 16 wieder in ihre Ausgangslage zurück und der Beleuchtungskörper 12 kann wieder verstellt bzw. herausgenommen werden.A ceiling mounting ring 10 for a cylindrical lamp 12 has an L-shape in cross section, one leg 20 of which is accommodated or inserted into an opening 21 in a suspended ceiling 14, whereas the radially outwardly projecting leg 22 is flange-like under the ceiling 14, the Comprehensive opening 21 is struck. Screw bolts 23 are fastened to the mounting ring 10, specifically on the end face of the web 20, which is circular-cylindrical, the longitudinal axis of which runs parallel to the central axis of the ceiling ring 10. Clamping pieces 13 can be clamped by means of the screw bolts 23, the cover 14 between the flange edge 22 and the clamping pieces 13 by means of the screw bolt 23 screwed nuts 24 is clamped. The screw nuts 24 are tightened onto the screw bolts 23 before the lamp 12 is installed. After the electrical connection, the lighting fixture 12 is pushed into the ceiling mounting ring 10 from below. The lighting fixture 12 is jammed by means of rubber segments 16, which are inserted into a recess 25 on the mounting ring 10, and squeezed by means of pressure plates 17, which rest on the rubber segments 16, so that 25 rubber beads 18 from the space between the pressure plates 17 and the recess come out that reduce the clear inner diameter and that far that the rubber segments 16 press with their rubber beads 18 from the outside against the lighting fixture 12. The rubber segments 16 are squeezed by means of the mounting ring 10 penetrating screws 15, which can be tightened from below after installation of the lighting fixture 12 or after it has been inserted, so that the rubber segments hold the lighting fixture 12 in place. The lighting fixture 12 is held in any installation depth and after loosening the screws the rubber segments 16 return to their starting position and the lighting fixture 12 can be adjusted or removed again.
