Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The invention relates to a radiation device for a lighting system and a lighting system. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

[0002] Lighting systems offer the possibility of positioning and aligning lighting devices at specific positions if a twisting or pivoting mechanism is present on a radiation unit.

[0003] Support brackets of such lighting systems serve as mechanical mounting means for securing the luminaires to their designated positions, where the emitting unit and the emitted light cone can then be aligned in the desired spatial direction. Such emitting units can advantageously be movable along at least one degree of freedom. In conventional lighting systems, the electrical connection between the emitting unit and the support bracket can be routed via a cable, which can, however, restrict the alignment movement of the emitting unit. In this case, pivoting the emitting unit beyond a rotation of 360°, for example, can be difficult to achieve.

[0004] An electrical connection via a cable can be limited by the length of the cable when it moves. Furthermore, severe and / or frequent deformation of the cable can lead to breakage, resulting in contact failures. Furthermore, a cable can cause additional stiffness in the cable itself, which can be undesirable, especially for very small luminaires.

[0005] Therefore, it is desirable to provide an electrical connection in a movable portion of the radiating unit which is not limited by the length of an electrical connection cable.

[0006] The publication DE 10 2014 205 663 B4 describes a holding arrangement for a functional component of a lighting device, as well as a lighting device. A functional component can be pivotably mounted in a gimbal manner by means of the holding arrangement to enable alignment of the functional component mounted in this manner. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0007] One of the objects of the invention is to find solutions for lighting systems and their emitting unit which allow greater flexibility with regard to movement of the emitting unit in the area of ​​an electrical connection and which can dispense with electrical connecting cables.

[0008] These and other objects are achieved by a radiation device having the features of claim 1 and by a lighting system having the features of claim 15.

[0009] According to a first aspect of the invention, the emitting device for a lighting system comprises a holder with an electrical base contact component for a emitting head;a radiation head which is connected or connectable to the electrical base contact component and comprises a lighting means and an electrical contact device, wherein the electrical contact device comprises a wireless pivoting contact with which the radiation head can be rotated about a pivot axis which extends from the holder to the radiation head, wherein the wireless pivoting contact further comprises a cylindrical contact which can be inserted into the electrical base contact component and along the pivot axis with a contact pin, and / or the electrical contact device comprises a wireless tilting contact with which the radiation head can be rotated about a tilt axis which runs perpendicular to the pivot axis and through the radiation head, wherein the wireless tilting contact comprises a ring contact, on the outside of which a sliding contact rests, wherein the tilting axis runs through a ring center point of the ring contact;

[0010] The wireless swivel contact and the wireless tilt contact are each mechanical and electrical contacts.

[0011] One idea underlying the present invention is to achieve a pivoting and / or tilting movement of the radiation head in the area of ​​the electrical contact guide without having to route a cable contact over the movement point. The electrical contact guide can be achieved by contact components that are movable relative to one another, whereby electrically conductive components touch one another and can be moved relative to one another.

[0012] The emitting head can be permanently connected to the holder and electrically connected to the electrical base contact component, and can have only the tilting contact in the emitting head, perhaps spaced apart from the holder, or it can also have (or instead of) a wireless swivel contact, which can be plugged into the holder and can also be removed when the emitting head is removed from the holder. In the latter case, the emitting head can advantageously be pluggable and removable. The contact pin can be inserted into a central recess in the cylindrical contact.

[0013] According to a first aspect of the invention, the lighting system comprises at least one support carrier with at least one radiation device according to the invention arranged thereon, wherein the holder with the electrical base contact component for the radiation head is arranged on the support carrier.

[0014] A support bracket according to the invention is not limited to specific transverse profiles or cross-sections or design embodiments. For example, the support bracket can be formed with a rectangular cross-section and an elongated extension along one or more directions, such as with sequentially arranged sections. The bracket or multiple brackets can be located on one or more sides of the support bracket, which are adjacent to or facing away from a mounting side of the support bracket.

[0015] On the support beam, one or more brackets may extend away from the support beam at a certain angle.

According to a further development of the emitting device, the sliding contact is connected to the illuminant, and the sliding contact and the ring contact are arranged within the emitting head.

[0017] The illuminant can, for example, comprise at least one LED, which can be arranged in a dedicated socket in the radiating head toward the radiating side of the head. The housing of the radiating head, including the radiating side and the contact guide between the sliding contact and the illuminant, can be rigidly rotated together with the sliding contact around the tilt axis and / or rotated around the pivot axis.

[0018] According to a further development of the radiating device, the sliding contact comprises a first sliding contact and a second sliding contact, each as partial contacts, and the ring contact comprises a first ring contact and a second ring contact, each as partial contacts, for a positive and negative direct current connection of the illuminant, wherein the first sliding contact and the second sliding contact are arranged next to one another along a direction parallel to the tilt axis and each extend in a curved shape to the associated ring contact, and wherein the first ring contact and the second ring contact are arranged next to one another along the tilt axis.

[0019] The DC polarity can advantageously be fed to the lamp with a positive pole and a negative pole via the first and second sliding contacts, which can be connected to the corresponding ring contacts. The sliding contacts can advantageously have arc symmetry and press against the ring contacts along their curvature, preferably under a certain mechanical tension, so that contact can be maintained even during tilting. Due to the adjacent arrangement, the tilting movement can occur simultaneously and to the same extent at both poles (first and second sliding contacts).

[0020] According to a further development of the radiation device, the wireless tilting contact allows a rotation of the radiation head by a predetermined angle of less than 180° relative to the pivot axis and / or the wireless pivoting contact allows a rotation of the radiation head by greater than or equal to 360° around the pivot axis.

[0021] The longitudinal extension of the housing of the radiation head can advantageously run along the pivot axis in the non-tilted state of the radiation head, whereby tilting away from this can then occur, for example by 90 ° or more.

[0022] According to a further development of the radiation device, the cylindrical contact of the wireless pivoting contact extends out of the radiation head at a first end thereof, wherein the first end faces away from a radiation side of the radiation head.

[0023] The contact with the electrical base contact component and the enclosure in the holder can be made at a predetermined distance from the housing of the radiation head.

[0024] The electrical base contact component may be a connection to an electrical wiring in the support bracket of the luminaire system.

[0025] The electrical base contact component itself can comprise a contact pin that can be inserted into the interior of the cylindrical contact of the emitting head. If the emitting device does not comprise a pivoting contact, the electrical base contact component can be connected directly to the conductors in the emitting head. The electrical base contact component can be connected to electrical conductors in the support bracket of the lighting system, whereby the electrical conductors in the support bracket can be implemented as cables or wirelessly as contacts with conductor tracks, rails, circuit boards, or the like.

[0026] According to a further development of the radiating device, the cylindrical contact of the wireless swivel contact is connected to the ring contact of the wireless tilting contact through the interior of the radiating head.

[0027] The contact guide to the ring contact can advantageously lead into the interior of the radiation head.

[0028] According to a further development of the radiation device, the radiation head comprises a hollow housing component and a mounting element, in which mounting element the cylindrical contact of the wireless pivoting contact and the ring contact of the wireless tilting contact are mounted and connected to one another, and the mounting element comprises on its outer side two pivot pins along the tilting axis, which are engaged in corresponding recesses in the hollow housing component and are rotatable with the mounting element relative to the hollow housing component about the tilting axis.

[0029] The edging element can achieve a tilting movement of the edging element relative to the hollow housing component, whereby the radiation head can be tilted relative to the pivot axis.

[0030] According to a further development of the radiation device, the contact pin and the cylindrical contact plugged together with it mechanically fix the radiation head to the holder against movement along the pivot axis.

[0031] The cylindrical contact can remain guided along the pivot axis and the radiating head can be tilted relative to it, whereby the housing of the radiating head can have a recess for the cylindrical contact in the region of the tilt relative to the cylindrical contact.

[0032] According to a further development of the radiation device, the radiation head has a weight of less than or equal to 10 g.

[0033] According to a further development of the radiation device, an outer housing of the radiation head has a length along its cylindrical axis of symmetry of less than or equal to 21 mm.

[0034] According to a further development of the radiation device, in the non-tilted state, a length of the radiation head from its radiation side to the end of the cylindrical contact is less than or equal to 29.5 mm.

[0035] According to a further development of the radiation device, the holder has a diameter of less than or equal to 9 mm.

[0037] According to a further development of the lighting system, the support beam can be oriented horizontally, vertically or tilted relative to a weight force.

[0038] The lighting system can be conveniently mounted on a ceiling or wall. Due to its compact size, the system's mounting bracket also makes it ideal for mounting on a wall or ceiling of display shelves, showcases, etc. (Suspended mounting is also possible). The mounting bracket can be mounted on a bracket or detached from a ceiling or wall, for example, on a freestanding bracket or frame.
