Description
- The invention relates to a lamp, such as a table or floor lamp, comprising a base member and an electric wiring associated with an electric light source.
- German Offenlegungsschrift No. 24 41 193 discloses a lamp, where the base member comprises variously shaped and variously coloured structure members interconnectable in various ways. These structure members may be made of plastics, wood, glass, ceramics or metal. As the members are mutually replaceable, it is possible to achieve a base member of a varying appearance by a varying combination of the structure members. The lamp is provided with a socket, a switch and a terminal block, said three members rendering it possible to build and alter the lamp.
- The object of the invention is to provide a lamp which during the transport to the using site is more compact and easier to pack than previously known, and where possible vulnerable members, such as the socket and the tube for the lamp, are protected in the best possible manner, and further where the completely mounted lamp is reasonably reliable. A further object of the invention is to provide a lamp which is easy to assemble in a specific manner.
- The lamp according to the invention is characterised in that the base member comprises at least one and preferably three conical, hollow, substantially frustoconical members and a dome-shaped member, whereby the members are releasably interconnected and matching in pairs, and that means are provided for keeping together the members. As a result, the relatively few assembling parts can be stored inside one another during the transport. Furthermore, the assembling parts can in fact only be assembled in one manner when they reach the using site, said assembling manner providing a rigid structure. The appearance of the rigid structure does not reflect the fact that it is assembled of several individual parts.
- By situating the dome-shaped member atop the largest frustoconical member, which in turn is placed atop the second largest frustoconical member in turn placed atop the third largest frustoconical member, and by at least the two middle frustoconical members being substantially shell-shaped, and by the base member being frustoconical such that the smallest cross section is situated farthest from the light source, it is ensured that the individual parts can only be assembled in one way, and that said parts can be safely arranged inside one another during the transport.
- According to the invention, the dome-shaped member and the frustoconical members may be interconnected in one or more of the following assembling ways: snap-action, bayonet locking and/or by means of threads, whereby a reliable and assembled structure is achieved.
- Moreover according to the invention the lowermost member may be shaped as a pot comprising at least one opening for a conduit, said opening being of a size exactly allowing insertion of a plug. The resulting lowermost frustoconical member is provided with such a suitable strength that the periphery is not disfigured at the same time as a conduit is allowed to pass out of the lamp.
- Moreover according to the invention the entire electric wiring may be mounted on the dome-shaped member, whereby the resulting electric wiring can be reliably carried out.
- According to the invention the female member of the uppermost junction may be situated on the dome-shaped member, and the male member of said uppermost junction may be situated on the uppermost frustoconical member, and the female member of the middle junction may be situated on the middle frustoconical member, and the male member of said middle junction may be situated on the uppermost frustoconical member, and the female member of the lowermost junction may be situated on the lowermost frustoconical member, and the male member of said lowermost junction may be situated on the middle frustoconical member. In this manner the individual assembling members cannot damage one another during the transport.
- Furthermore according to the invention the junctions can no longer be separated after the assembling procedure, whereby it is avoided that the parts of the lamp accidentally fall apart.
- According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention the lamp is structured such that the conicity of the frustoconical members is in the range of 0° to 40°, preferably in the range of 10° to 30°, especially 20°.
- Moreover according to the invention the joining means may include a wire, at least two wire locks, an upper locking device and a lower locking device with the result that a reliable and centrally arranged junction is obtained.
- According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention both the upper and the lower locking device may comprise a circular disk member with three openings, and the openings of the locking devices may be arranged along a main axis of the disk member, and the opening adjacent the centre may be of a larger diameter than the openings adjacent the periphery of the disk member.
