Abstract

An adaptor for small fluorescent lamps, in which, in contrast to known adaptors, after insertion into a screw or bayonet socket, the fluorescent lamp sockets arranged on the adaptor can be moved by rotation and pivoting into a position matched to the light and/or to the technical-lighting requirements. Fig. 1 shows the view of an exemplary embodiment of an adaptor according to the invention, having a built-in ballast, which clearly shows the pivoting and rotation capability of the fluorescent lamp sockets on the adaptor. <IMAGE>

Description

Somit können diese sowohl nach den lichttechnischen Erfor-This means that they can be used both according to the lighting requirements

dernissen als auch nach den Dimensionen der Leuchten ausgerichtet werden. Z.B. bei schmalen hohen Leuchtenkörpern können die Leuchtstofflampen nach oben oder unten, bei niedrigen breiten dagegen waagrecht gestellt, bei einseitig angeordneten Leuchtenfassungen wiederum nach einer Seite ausgerichtet werden. Aber auch jede andere beliebige Stellung der Leuchtstofflampen ist möglich, je nach Form, Zweck oder Einsatzort der Leuchte. Eine trennbare Verbindung zwischen Adaptersockel und Adapter erweitert die Einsatzmöglichkeiten, z.B. auch für flache Leuchten.requirements as well as the dimensions of the luminaires will. E.g. in the case of tall, narrow luminaire bodies, the fluorescent lamps can after above or below, in the case of low widths, on the other hand, placed horizontally, in the case of one-sided arranged lamp sockets are in turn aligned to one side. but Any other position of the fluorescent lamps is also possible, depending on the shape, Purpose or place of use of the luminaire. A separable connection between adapter sockets and adapter expands the application possibilities, e.g. also for flat lights.

Durch alle diese Maßnahmen wird dem Einsatz der Kleinleuchtstofflampen ein weiteres umfassenderes Gebiet erschlossen als es bei starren Leuchtstofflampenfassungen möglich ist.Through all of these measures, the use of small fluorescent lamps opened up another broader area than rigid fluorescent lampholders is possible.

Die Abb.1 - 3 zeigen ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen Adapters in zwei um 900 versetzten Ansichten (Abb.1 u.2) und einer Draufsicht (Abb.3) mit eingebautem Vorschaltgerät (5), mit einem Schraubsockel (1), dem Vorschaltgerätegehäuse (2) mit Entlüftungsschlitzen (4) und zwei Leuchtstofflampenfassungen (3 u.3') mit Leuchtstofflampen (6), bei welchem das Vorschaltgerät mit Gehäuse und Leuchtstofflampenfassungen gemeinsam um die Achse (7) schwenkbar sind und jede einzelne Leuchtstofflampenfassung um die Achse (8) drehbar ist Abb.4 zeigt den Adapter mit ansteckbarem Adaptersockel (1) über zwei Steckerstifte (9).Figures 1-3 show an embodiment of an inventive Adapter in two views offset by 900 (Fig.1 and 2) and a top view (Fig.3) with built-in ballast (5), with a screw base (1), the ballast housing (2) with ventilation slots (4) and two fluorescent lamp sockets (3 and 3 ') with Fluorescent lamps (6), in which the ballast with housing and fluorescent lamp sockets can be pivoted together around the axis (7) and each individual fluorescent lamp socket is rotatable around the axis (8) Fig.4 shows the adapter with an attachable adapter base (1) via two connector pins (9).

Adapter für Kleinleuchtstoff lampen Die Erfindung betrifft einen Adapter für einseitig gesockelte Kleinleuchtstofflampen, zum Einsetzen in normale Schraub-oder Bajonettfassungen, mit einer oder mehreren verstellbaren Fassungen für die Leuchtstofflampen, auch zum Einsatz in handelsübliche Glühlampen leuchten. Adapter for small fluorescent lamps The invention relates to a Adapter for small fluorescent lamps with a cap on one side, for insertion in normal Screw or bayonet sockets, with one or more adjustable sockets for fluorescent lamps, also for use in standard incandescent lamps.

Bekannte Adapter für Kleinleuchtstofflampen haben eine starrsitzende Fassung für die Leuchtstofflampe, so daß die Stellung derselben je nach Gewindeauslauf der Schraubfassung oder Lage der Bajonettfassung nach dem Einsetzen des Adapters unbestimmt ist. Dies ist entweder für eine optimale lichttechnische Nutzung unvorteilhaft oder der Adapter ist, je nach Beschaffenheit oder Dimension der Leuchte selbst, in diese gar nicht einsetzbar. Die Verwendung dieser Adapter ist dadurch stark eingeschränkt und damit auch der Einsatz der Kleinleuchtstofflampen. Known adapters for small fluorescent lamps have a rigid fit Socket for the fluorescent lamp, so that the position of the same depending on the thread run-out the screw socket or the position of the bayonet socket after inserting the adapter is indefinite. This is either disadvantageous for an optimal use of the lighting technology or the adapter is, depending on the nature or dimensions of the luminaire itself, cannot be used in this at all. This severely restricts the use of these adapters and thus also the use of small fluorescent lamps.

Der erfindungsgemäße Adapter dagegen ist so ausgebildet, daß die einzelnen Leuchtstofflampenfassungen um eine quer zur Lampenachse liegende Achse und/oder um die Lampenachse drehbar sind und gleichzeitig auch in ihrer Gesamtheit schwenkbar um die Längsachse der den Adapter aufnehmenden Fassung. The adapter according to the invention, however, is designed so that the individual fluorescent lamp sockets around an axis perpendicular to the lamp axis and / or are rotatable about the lamp axis and at the same time also in their entirety pivotable about the longitudinal axis of the holder receiving the adapter.

Dadurch wird erreicht, daß unabhängig von den Gewindeauslauf und der Stellung der den Adapter aufnehmenden Fassung die Leuchtstofflampen in jede beliebige Lage gebracht werden können. This ensures that regardless of the thread run-out and the position of the socket receiving the adapter, the fluorescent lamps in each any position can be brought.
