Description

[0001] The present invention is directed to a luminaire having a luminaire body and a gear tray received within the luminaire body.

[0002] Luminaires with gear trays are well known. Gear trays are often used to collect lighting components, like light sources and drivers, in a single unit for pre-assembly and easy handling during final installation. Such gear trays are usually equipped with corresponding lighting components before being mounted to the luminaire body. Therefore, the gear tray is fixed to the luminaire body by a number of screws. The luminaire thus needs to be fully equipped with the lighting component before being mounted to the place of operation, e.g. a ceiling. Hence, the luminaire is quite heavy for installation, and subsequent accessibility to the lighting components (e.g. for maintenance) is impeded. Alternatively, the luminaire body may already be mounted, before the gear tray is then fixed. This option requires two persons fro installation, one holding the gear tray and the other one fixing the same by the screws. This requires a high number of human resources and results in time consuming maintenance.

[0003] It is thus an object of the present invention to provide a luminaire with a luminaire body and a gear tray, which allows for an efficient and safe installation and maintenance.

[0004] This object is obtained by the subject-matter of the independent claim. The dependent claims study further the central idea of the present invention.

[0005] According to a first aspect, the present invention is directed to a luminaire comprising a gear tray having a mounting section for carrying lighting components. The luminaire further comprises a luminaire body defining a lighting space for receiving the gear tray. Moreover, the luminaire comprises a hinge for connecting the gear tray to the luminaire body in a manner to be pivotable about a pivot axis. The hinge comprises a pin element and a receiving element. The pin element has a flat cross-section when viewed along the pivot axis, with a first dimension D1 (e.g. a length, width or thickness) along a first axis being oriented orthogonally to the pivot axis, and a second dimension D2 (e.g. a length, width or thickness) along a second axis being oriented orthogonally to the pivot axis and the first axis, wherein D1 < D2. The receiving element has a receiving slot for receiving and pivotally supporting the pin element. The receiving slot comprises a pivoting section for receiving the pin element in a freely rotatable manner about the pivot axis. The pivoting section has a minimum (e.g. diameter) extension P orthogonal to the pivot axis at any rotation angle about the pivot axis of P > D2. The receiving slot further comprises an insertion section leading, along an insertion axis, into the pivoting section for inserting the pin element, in an assembling state, into the receiving slot and further sliding it - i.e. through the insertion section - along the insertion axis into the pivoting section. The insertion section has a slot width W of D1 < W < D2 so as to prevent the gear tray from being freely rotatable, relative to the luminaire body, about the pivot axis. The hinge is designed such that, when the pin element is received in the pivoting section, the gear tray can be pivoted, in the freely rotatable manner, at least between the assembling state and an operational state in which the gear tray is completely received in the lighting space and the pin element be tilted relative to the insertion section or the insertion axis (at least at its end towards the pivoting section) so as to prevent the pin element from entering the insertion section.

[0006] The specific design of the hinge element allows for an easy assembly of the gear tray to the luminaire body. For connecting these two elements, the pivoting section is simply tilted to be oriented in the assembling state, thus allowing insertion into the insertion section. Once reaching the pivoting section, the gear tray and the luminaire body can be pivoted relative to each other thus resulting in the pin element be relatively pivoted inside the receiving element towards and into the operational state. As the pivoting section is tilted relatively to the insertion axis, the pin element is prevented from entering the insertion section; at least in the operational state. Hence, the gear tray is securely carried by the luminaire body. As the gear tray is securely held at the luminaire body, installation and maintenance can be facilitated even with only one person, as there is no need for a cumbersome simultaneous holding and fixing of the gear tray.

[0007] The gear tray may be pivotally connected to the luminaire body by the hinge such that, when the pin element is received in the pivoting section, the gear tray urges, by gravity, into a mounting state being angularly positioned between the assembling state and the operational state. Hence, the gear tray is automatically moved (i.e. pivoted) into the mounting state, which allows for a stable secure connection of the gear tray to the luminaire body, while facilitating the assembly.

[0008] At the mounting state and preferably also at the assembling state, the gear tray, preferably at least its mounting section, may at least be partially exposed from the lighting space. Hence, installation and maintenance is further facilitated as the access to the gear tray is improved.

[0009] At any pivoting angle between the assembling state and the operational state, preferably including the mounting state, the pin element can be tilted relative to the insertion section so as to prevent the pin element from entering the insertion section. Hence, as the gear tray is securely held connected at any position - apart from the intended assembling state for allowing connection of the gear tray to the luminaire body -, safety during installation and maintenance is improved. In particular, in the case in which the gear tray automatically urges into the mounting section by gravity, the gear tray is automatically positioned in an orientation which defines a safe connection of the gear tray to the luminaire body, thus increasing safety of the luminaire, e.g. at least during installation and maintenance.

[0010] The luminaire may have a longitudinal extension along an extension axis. Preferably, the extension axis may be oriented parallel to the pivot axis. Hence, the given arrangement can be easily provided at a longitudinal luminaire.

[0011] The luminaire body may extend longitudinally along the extension axis. Hence, the luminaire may comprise a corresponding lighting space. The gear tray may extend longitudinally along the extension axis. Hence, the gear tray may provide sufficient space for receiving corresponding lighting components. Also, in case both the luminaire body and the gear tray extend longitudinally along the extension axis, a sufficient space for receiving the lighting components can be provided, while the luminaire can be made compact.

[0012] The gear tray may be made of a plate material having a defined material thickness T. The gear tray may be made of a metal plate, e.g. by being stamped and formed. Hence, the gear tray can be easily manufactured. In case of a metal plate, the gear tray may integrate a potential heat dissipation function. Preferably, the material thickness T may be at T = D1. Hence, the plate-like material may simply be used to provide the flat cross section of the pin element, thus facilitating the production of the hinge.

[0013] The gear tray may comprise the pin element, while the luminaire body may comprise the receiving element. Hence, the gear tray can be provided in a compact manner, while the luminaire body can provide the corresponding receiving element, e.g. inside the lighting space, without affecting the overall size and functionality of the luminaire.

[0014] The gear tray may comprise, in cross-sectional view when seen along the pivot axis, a tray shape having a centre bottom section and two opposite side wing sections. Due to this convex layout, a corresponding design can be provided to allow for an easy attachment of lighting components, as desired, in a protected manner. Also, the three-dimensional shape allows for increased space, e.g. to attach corresponding lighting components.

[0015] The centre bottom section and / or at least one or both of the wing sections may comprise the mounting section. Hence, the lighting components can be provided at any desired position of the gear tray.

[0016] One of the side wing sections may comprise the pin element. Hence, the pin element can be easily provided, preferably as an integral part of the gear tray and more preferred of the side wing section. Due to the side wing section being angled / tilted with respect to the bottom section, the automatic urging, by gravity, into the mounting state can be easily obtained based on the design and orientation of the gear tray and its sections.

[0017] One of the side wing sections, preferably the other one of the side wing sections, may comprise a fixing section preferably at its distal end. The fixing section may be designed such that it lies flat at the luminaire body in the operational state. Hence, sufficient surface area can be provided to easily attach, e.g. screw or clamp or the like, the gear tray to the luminaire body. Also, in case the gear tray is used for heat dissipation, heat may be easily transferred from the gear tray to the luminaire body, as desired, thus increasing efficiency of the luminaire.

[0018] In the operational state, the gear tray may be arranged to be fixed relative to the luminaire body and preferably through the fixing section. Hence, the gear tray, in the operational state, can be easily secured, thus increasing safety of the luminaire.

[0019] The luminaire further comprises a fixing element, like a screw, for fixing the gear tray relative to the luminaire body in the operational state. Hence, the gear tray can be effectively secured to the luminaire body; preferably by commonly known means.

[0020] The gear tray and the luminaire body may respectively comprise a connection structure for a snap-fit connection to relatively fix the gear tray to the luminaire body in the operational state. Hence, the gear tray may be secured to the luminaire body by integrated features, thus avoiding additional elements, which results in facilitated installation and maintenance.

[0021] In the operational state, the gear tray - preferably its centre bottom section and / or its mounting section - on the one hand and the luminaire body on the other hand define a receiving space therebetween for receiving at least part of the lighting components to be carried by the gear tray. Hence, the corresponding lighting components can be securely carried in a protected area - namely the receiving space. Also, lighting components for controlling, e.g. the light sources of the luminaire, can be provided at a position where they are not affecting or even blocking the light emission.

[0022] The insertion section or its insertion axis may extend linearly. Hence, insertion of the pin element can be easily obtained by transversely sliding the gear tray relative to the luminaire body, thus facilitating the assembly.

[0023] The pivoting section may have a circular shape with a diameter D of D = P. Hence, the pivoting section forms a simple space for allowing an accurate pivoting of the pin element therein.

[0024] The pivoting section may have a longitudinal extension along a longitudinal axis, with a section width S orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of S > D2. Hence, the pin element can be easily guided, even in a pivotable manner, through the potentially longitudinal pivoting section, thus allowing for an accurate positioning of the gear tray within the lighting space, as desired. Hence, preferably, a combined rotational and translational positioning of the gear tray can be obtained.

[0025] The luminaire may further comprise a luminaire cover. The luminaire cover preferably extends longitudinally along the extension axis. The luminaire cover may cover the lighting space at a side opposite to the luminaire body so as to enclose, together with the luminaire body, the gear tray in the lighting space. Hence, the gear tray as well as the lighting components to be carried therewith, can be easily protected within the lighting space.

[0026] The luminaire cover may comprise or is a clear cover and / or a diffusor cover and / or a lens element. Hence, the luminaire cover can be provided with any desired function for passing and directing light emitted from a light source within the lighting space for desired light emission.

[0027] The luminaire may further comprise two end caps provided at opposite axial sides of the lighting space, respectively, to cover the respective axial sides. Hence, the lighting space can be covered even at axial sides as to effectively protect the lighting components housed in the luminaire, while increasing security to a user by effectively avoiding access to the interior of the luminaire.

[0028] The luminaire may further comprise a lighting component being attached to the gear tray so as to be arranged in the lighting space at least in the operational state of the gear tray. Hence, the lighting component can be easily and effectively provided on the pivotable gear tray. Particularly, the lighting component may be attached to the gear tray so as to be arranged in the receiving space within the lighting space, at least in the operational state of the gear tray.

[0029] Hence, the lighting component can be effectively and securely provided within the receiving space in a compact manner.

[0030] The lighting component may be detachably mounted to the gear tray. Hence, maintenance of the luminaire can be facilitated.

[0031] The lighting component may comprise a light source arranged to allow light emitted from the light source to exit the luminaire, preferably through the luminaire cover, for lighting purposes when the gear tray is in the operational state. Hence, the luminaire can be equipped with corresponding light sources, as desired.

[0032] The light source may be an LED light source, preferably comprising an LED module and / or an LED light engine. Hence, a compact, long-lasting and energy-saving light source can be provided.

[0033] The lighting component may comprise an LED driver and / or an electrical connector and / or an electrical wiring and / or a sensor and / or a Bluetooth device and / or a lighting optic and the like.
