Description

[0001] KIT FOR PROVIDING A LUMINAIRE AND A LUMINAIRE

[0002] The present invention is directed to a kit for providing a luminaire having a luminaire body and a cover element, as well as to a luminaire preferably obtained by said kit.

[0003] Luminaires, particularly street light luminaires, are well known. These luminaires are often positioned at prominent places so that a well aesthetic appearance is required. In addition, intelligent lighting using sensors and other electronic parts recently became more and more important. For optimal positioning of such electronic parts, they need to be placed at the luminaire itself and often at a position being visible from outside.

[0004] It is thus an object of the present invention to provide a kit for providing a luminaire as well as such a luminaire, which allow for selectively equipping the luminaire with a functional element in an easy way without severely affecting the aesthetical appearance of the luminaire.

[0005] This object is obtained by the independent claims. The dependent claims study further the central idea of the present invention.

[0006] According to a first aspect, the present invention is directed to a kit for providing a luminaire, particularly a street light luminaire. The kit comprises a luminaire body defining a space for receiving lighting electrics, including a light source. The kit further comprises a ring shaped cover element for covering at least part of the space. The cover element comprises at least two ring segments. At least one of the ring segments is a functional ring segment being removably attachable or attached relative to the luminaire body to cover, with a cover section of the functional ring segment, an access opening to access the space. The kit comprises at least two types of the functional ring segments for alternative use. A first type of the functional ring segments is a blank cover. A second type of the functional ring segments is a functional cover comprising an electrical component.

[0007] With the inventive kit it is possible to provide a luminaire with a ring shaped cover element thus having a well aesthetical appearance. To allow for an easy integration of an electrical component to equip the luminaire with a corresponding function, at least one of the ring segments can be the functional ring segment. To equip the electrical component, a corresponding functional cover can be used. In case of a luminaire not requiring (for all functional ring segments or in general) the corresponding function, a blank cover can be used as the functional ring segment. Hence, the luminaire can be equipped with our without such a function without severely affecting the aesthetical appearance of the luminaire. The electrical component may comprise an electrical interface element. Hence, the luminaire can be selectively equipped with a means, namely an electrical interface element, so as to provide any desired feature or function, like sensors, for controlling the luminaire. As the functional ring segment covers an access opening to the space, the electrical interface element can be easily connected with means, namely the lighting electrics, received in the space. Hence, an intelligent luminaire can be easily provided by the kit.

[0008] The electrical interface element may comprise a Zhaga interface element and more preferred a Zhaga Book 18 smart interface element. Hence, standardised electrical interface elements can be used to allow for easily equipping and controlling the luminaire with any desired function.

[0009] Each of the ring segments may be one of the functional ring segments. Hence, all of the ring segments can be selectively provided with either a blank cover or a functional ring segment and thus be selectively equipped, as desired. All of these ring segments thus allow for an easy access to the space via the so covered access opening, which allows for an easy assembly and electrification of the luminaire.

[0010] The ring segments preferably all have the same or identical circumferential extension. Hence, a high aesthetical appearance can be obtained, while allowing for an easy provision of the respective functional ring segment and easy access to the space, as desired.

[0011] The cover sections may all be identical in shape and / or dimension. Hence, the cover sections can be easily interchangeably used. Also, all of the functional ring segments can be used at any desired position, thus resulting in an easy assembly and severely reduced number of different pieces due to the given same parts.

[0012] The cover element may extend about a center of the luminaire or the luminaire body and / or about the luminaire body. Hence, a high aesthetical appearance can be obtained. In case of the cover element extending about the luminaire body, the functional ring segments can be easily functionally provided, as being exposed, and the accessible space can be maximised for ease of use, equipment and assembly.

[0013] The cover element preferably extends along a circle, oval, square, or rectangle. Hence, the cover element can extend in a highly aesthetical way, as desired. Also, the cover element may follow the overall shape of the luminaire if having also a round, oval, square or rectangular shape. This allows for an easy production and assembly as well as a high aesthetical appearance. The ring segments may preferably be evenly distributed along a circumferential extension of the cover element. Hence, the luminaire can be easily produced, and assembly be facilitated. Also, a high aesthetical appearance can be obtained.

[0014] The cover element may preferably comprise at least two or at least three or at least four or at least six of the ring segments. Hence, depending on the number of segments, different design concepts can be realised. Also, depending on the size of the luminaire and number of the cover elements, potential access to the space via an access opening of the functional ring element of the ring elements can be facilitated.

[0015] The kit may further comprise a supporting structure for mounting the luminaire. Hence, the luminaire can be provided to come along with a device for easily mounting and supporting the luminaire.

[0016] The supporting structure may preferably comprise at least one or a plurality of supporting arms to carry the luminaire. Hence, an easy but effective structure can be provided as the supporting structure.

[0017] The plurality of supporting arms may preferably be evenly distributed about a circumference of the luminaire body. Hence, in addition to the simple but effective supporting means, a high aesthetical appearance can be obtained. Also, due to the supporting arms being evenly distributed, also the carrying forces can be evenly distributed to each of the supporting arms.

[0018] The supporting structure may preferably comprise a suspension element for a suspended mounting of the luminaire. Hence, the luminaire can be easily provided as a suspension luminaire, if desired.

[0019] The supporting structure may preferably comprise a mechanical connection port for mounting the luminaire to a support element, like a pole or a wall mount. Hence, easy connection of the luminaire to a corresponding support element which is commonly used in the technical field of, e.g., street light luminaires can be provided, thus allowing for an easy mounting of the luminaire.

[0020] The supporting structure may preferably comprise an adjustment section for selectively adjusting a mounting angle a of the luminaire body when being mounted by the supporting structure. Hence, the luminaire can be easily adjusted so as to allow for a desired light emission direction and / or be adapted to the mounting surface type and angle, as desired. The at least one of the ring segments - and preferably the functional ring segment - may comprise the supporting structure. Hence, the supporting structure can be easily integrated into the design. If provided at the functional ring segment, the supporting structure can be provided to the luminaire, as desired, upon assembly thereof. According to a particular embodiment, the at least one of the ring segments and preferably the functional ring segment may comprise the mechanical connection port. Hence, the luminaire can be easily equipped with a means to mount the luminaire to a corresponding support element, as desired.

[0021] The ring segments may be separated from a respective neighbouring one of the ring segments by a spacer. Hence, assembly of the respective ring segments can be facilitated. Also, a high aesthetical appearance can be obtained.

[0022] The spacer may be part of the luminaire body and / or a or the supporting structure of the luminaire. Hence, the supporting structure may have an integral function, thus reducing the number of parts and improving the outer aesthetical appearance. According to a preferred embodiment, the spacer maybe part of the supporting arm(s).

[0023] The luminaire and preferably the supporting structure may comprise a spigot with a or the mechanical connection port to mount the luminaire to a support element, like a pole or a wall mount. Hence, the luminaire can be easily mounted, as desired.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the spigot may comprise an adapter or adapter element to be connected to the mechanical connection port. The adapter element may have another mechanical connection port different from the mechanical connection port, preferably in shape and / or dimension, and being exposed when the adapter element is connected to the mechanical connection port so as to mount the luminaire to the support element. Hence, the luminaire, which comes along with a spigot, may be easily adapted in a way that the mounting ability can be adjusted according to the given circumstances. For instance, the shape of the spigot can be adjusted to comply with a corresponding support element so as to easily fit thereto. Also, by the adapter element, the dimension of the mechanical connection port maybe reduced or increased so as to fit, e.g., to differently dimensioned support elements. Thus, the luminaire provided by the given kit can be provided in such a way that it can be easily mounted to any desired support element or supporting structure in general.

[0025] The kit may further comprise a light source, like an LED light source preferably comprising an LED module or an LED light engine. Hence, a compact and effective as well as long-lasting light source can be provided. Further, the kit may comprise additional lighting electrics, like an LED driver. Hence, the luminaire can be easily equipped with any desired functionality, e.g. for autonomous driving and control of the luminaire.

[0026] The kit may further comprise a gear tray for supporting the light source and preferably the additional lighting electrics inside the space. Hence, all the functional elements of the luminaire can be easily provided at a single gear tray, thus facilitating assembly of the lighting electrics and providing it in a compact manner.

[0027] The present invention is further directed to a luminaire, particularly a street light luminaire, comprising a luminaire body defining a space for receiving lighting electrics, including a light source, and a ring-shaped cover element for covering at least part of the space. The cover element may comprise at least two ring segments. At least one of the ring segments is a functional ring segment, preferably being a blank cover or a functional cover comprising electrical components, the functional ring segment being removably attached relative to the luminaire body to cover, with the cover section, an access opening to access the space.

[0028] This luminaire allows for a high aesthetical appearance while further allowing for the luminaire being easily equipped with a functional ring segment thus, selectively, providing the luminaire with an easy access to the space and a desired electrical functionality, like provision of desired sensors and the like; most preferred by a given standard, like Zhaga. The luminaire comprises all of the features as defined for the luminaires to be provided by the kit, so that - for ease of explanation - it is referred to the explanations made herein above.

[0048] The figures show different views and embodiments of luminaires 1 provided by a kit according to the present invention and parts thereof. The kit as well as the luminaire 1 itself form an individual part of the present invention. Hence, all the features described for the luminaire apply likewise for the luminaire features of the kit and for the luminaire 1 itself. The luminaire 1 preferably is a streetlight luminaire.

[0049] The kit as well as the luminaire 1 itself comprises a luminaire body 2 defining a space S for receiving lighting electrics 3, including a light source 30, as exemplarily derivable from the exploded views of Figs. 2 and 3. As shown in these embodiments, the kit as well as the luminaire 1 itself may comprise said light source 30. The light source maybe an LED light source, as shown, preferably comprising an LED module or an LED light engine. The kit as well as the luminaire 1 itself may further comprise additional lighting electrics, like an LED driver 31.

[0050] The kit as well as the luminaire 1 itself may further comprise a gear tray 9 for supporting the light source 30 and preferably the additional lighting electrics 3 inside the space S, as also derivable from Figs. 2 and 3. With the preferred embodiment of an all-in-one gear tray design, both an LED light engine as well as an LED driver may come along in a complete unit, thus facilitating assembly and reducing size. Also, such a gear tray 9 design may promote flexibility and interchangeability especially with regards to refurbishment purposes of the given kit and luminaire 1. The kit as well as the luminaire i itself further comprises a ring-shaped cover element 4 for covering at least part of the space S, as can be derived from any of Figs. 1-11, 14 and 15.

[0051] The cover element 4 may extend about a centre C of the luminaire 1 or the luminaire body 2 and / or about the luminaire body 2, as derivable from any of Figs. 1-11, 14 and 15.

[0052] The cover element 4 may extend along a circle, as shown in any of the embodiments. Alternatively, the cover element 4 may also extend along an oval, a square, or a rectangle or any other regular or irregular shape, as desired.

[0053] The cover element 4 may comprise at least two or at least three or at least four or at least six or any other desired number of ring segments 5. The ring segments 5 may all have the same or identical circumferential extension, as shown in all of the embodiments and as best seen in the exploded views of Figs. 2 and 3.

[0054] The ring segments 5 may all be evenly distributed along a circumferential extension of the cover element 4, as can also be best derived from Figs. 2 and 3.

[0055] At least one of the ring segments 5 is a functional ring segment 6 being removably attachable or attached relative to the luminaire body 2 to cover, with a cover section 60, an access opening 7 to the space S, as can be best derived from a combination of Figs. 1 and 4 as well as Figs. 5 and 6.

[0056] The cover sections 60 may all be identical in shape and / or dimension, as exemplarily derivable from Figs. 2 and 3.

[0057] Each of the ring segments 5 maybe one of the functional ring segments 6.

[0058] With particular reference to Figs. 4 and 5, the kit further comprises at least two types of the functional ring segments 6 for alternative use; i.e. alternative use at the same position of the luminaire 1. The luminaire 1 itself may comprise one or both types of said functional ring segments 6. A first type of the functional ring segments 61 is a blank cover as shown, for instance, in Figs. 1-4, 14, 15 and 17-20. A second type of the functional ring segments 62 is a functional cover comprising an electrical component 8, as exemplarily derivable from Figs. 5- 10.

[0059] As can be seen from Figs. 5-10, the electrical component may comprise an electrical interface element 80. In the shown exemplary embodiment, the electrical interface element 80 may comprise a Zhaga interface element, more preferred a Zhaga Book 18 smart interface element, for easy and standardised attachment of any desired functional means, like corresponding sensors, to easily equip the luminaire with a desired function. Hence, a corresponding luminaire 1 can be easily equipped with such a function in a highly aesthetical way. Also, by providing the electrical component 8 accordingly, it can be provided at a well exposed position, thus having a highly effective functionality. Also, the use of corresponding electrical interface elements 8o, preferably including a Zhaga interface element, increases the overall flexibility in use of a luminaire i provided by the corresponding kit.

[0060] The kit as well as the luminaire 1 itself may further comprise a supporting structure to for mounting the luminaire 1.

[0061] With reference to the embodiments of Figs. 1-6, the supporting structure io preferably comprises at least one or - here - a plurality of supporting arms 11 to carry the luminaire 1. The plurality of supporting arms n are preferably evenly distributed about a circumference of the luminaire body 2, as shown.

[0062] The supporting structure io may preferably comprise a suspension element 12 for suspended mounting of the luminaire 1, as exemplarily shown in Fig. 11.

[0063] The supporting structure 10 may preferably comprise a mechanical connection port 13, as exemplarily shown in any of Figs. 1-10, 12 and 13 as well as 14, 15 and 18, for mounting the luminaire 1 to a support element too, like a pole or a wall mount.

[0064] With reference to Figs. 7-10, 14, 15, 18 and 20, the supporting structure 10 may preferably comprise an adjustment section 14 for selectively adjusting a mounting angle a of the luminaire body 2 when being mounted by the supporting structure 10.

[0065] With reference to the embodiments of Figs. 7-10 as well as 14, 15 and 17 to 20, at least one of the ring segments 5, preferably here in Figs. 7-10 the functional ring segment 6, may comprise the supporting structure 10; here preferably the mechanical connection port 13 and / or the adjustment section 14.

[0066] The ring segments 5 are preferably separated from a respective neighbouring one of the ring segments by a spacer 15, as can be derived from any of Figs. 1-11, 14 and 15. In the shown embodiments, the spacer 15 preferably is part of the supporting structure 10 of the luminaire 1, here in Figs. 1-6 more preferred part of the supporting arms 11. The spacer 15 may also be part of the luminaire body 2 and / or another supporting structure 10. The kit as well as the luminaire i itself - preferably the supporting structure io - may comprise a spigot 16 with a or the mechanical connection port 13 to mount the luminaire 1 to a support element too, like a pole or a wall mount. Reference is here particularly made to Figs. 1-10, 12 and 13 as well as 14-16, 18 and 20.

[0067] Figs. 7 to 9 and 15 show the spigot 16 with the mechanical connection port 13 being substantially vertically oriented for a post-top mounting on the supporting element 100. Figs. 10, 14, 18 and 20 show the spigot 16 with the mechanical connection port 13 being substantially horizontally oriented for a lateral (e.g. wall) mounting on the supporting element 100.

[0068] In Figs. 7 to 9 on the one hand and Fig. 10 on the other hand, a change between the “vertical” version and the “horizontal” version is obtained by the respective design of the spigot 16. In Fig. 10, the spigot 16 extends straight. In Figs. 7 to 9, the spigot 16 is angled, e.g. by 90°.

[0069] Alternatively, as shown in the embodiments of Figs. 14 to 20, the spigot 16 may have a curved or slanted connection surface 160 (see, e.g., in Fig. 16), which corresponds to a curved or slanted connection surface 161 of the supporting structure 10 on the side of the ring segment 5 or of the functional ring segment 6 (see, e.g., in Fig. 17). By rotating the spigot 16 about an axis X which orthogonally traverses the connection surface(s) 160, 161 by 180°, one can easily switch between the “vertical” version (e.g. Fig. 15) and the “horizontal” version (e.g. Figs. 14, 18 and 20).

[0070] The adjustment section 14 may comprise a joint 140, like a pivot joint, to selectively adjust the mounting angle a of the luminaire body 2, as exemplarily illustrated in Figs. 7 to 10. The adjustment section 14 may also comprise a corresponding form fit structure 141, with a first structure section 142 on the luminaire body’s or (functional) ring segment’s side and a second structure section 143 on a distant element, like the spigot 16. The form fit structure 141 is designed such that it allows the two structure sections 142, 143 to obtain a form fit connection in at least two or more mounting angle a positions of the luminaire body 2; preferably within the respective mounting orientation (i.e. “vertical” version or “horizontal” version). For example, as shown, the first and second structure sections 142, 143 may comprise a toothed structure provided on a / the curved or slanted connection surfaces 160, 161, which here exemplarily allow for five different mounting angle a positions per orientation. When being in the desired mounting angle a position, a fixing element 19 (like a screw; here there are shown two screws) is provided to fixedly connect the two cooperating elements (here the spigot 16 to the (functional) ring segment 5 (6)). The fixing element 19 may be provided such that it can slightly be loosened to still connect the two cooperating elements, but to allow to move / slide these elements relative to each other (here preferably substantially along the cooperating curved or slanted connection surfaces 160, 161) to thus change between the respective mounting angle a positions within the respective same mounting orientation; e.g. in 50steps). To allow switching between the “vertical” version and the “horizontal” version, the fixing elements 19 may be removed, the cooperating elements (e.g. spigot 16 and (functional) ring segment 5 (6)) be rotated about the axis X by 180°, and the fixing elements 19 be attached again. In this orientation, the mounting angle a position maybe adjusted as just described, i.e. preferably before providing or fully tightening the fixing element(s) 19. Preferably once the fixing elements 19 are fixed, a space of the (functional) ring segment 5 (6)) in which the fixing elements 19 are at least partially received can be closed by a cover member 21 which can also be secured by another fixing element 20 (here another screw).

[0071] For example, Fig. 12 shows a support element too (e.g. a pole or a post) having a (post -top) diameter of 76mm, wherein Fig. 13 shows a support element too (e.g. a pole or a post) having a (post-top) diameter of 60mm. In Fig. 13, it is exemplarily shown that the spigot 16 may comprise an adapter or adapter element 17 to be connected to the mechanical connection port 13. The adapter element 17 may have another mechanical connection port 18 differing from the mechanical connection port 13, preferably in shape and / or (here) dimension. The other mechanical connection port 18 is exposed when the adapter element 17 is connected to the mechanical connection port 13 so as to mount the luminaire 1 to the support element too. The adapter element 17 thus allows for mounting the luminaire 1 to different types (e.g. differing in diameter) of support elements too by selectively providing the spigot 16 with the adapter element 17.

[0072] In the shown embodiments of Fig. 12 and 13, the luminaire 1 is mounted in a “non-flush” manner to the support element too, as shown by the step at the mechanical connection port 13 side (cf. Fig. 12) or at the other mechanical connection port 18 side (cf. Fig. 13), respectively, between spigot 16 and support element too.

[0073] The adapter element 17 may also be used for the same type of support element too, e.g., to choose between either a “non-flush” mount (i.e. by omitting the adapter element 17), as shown in Fig. 12, or a “flush” mount (not shown) between spigot 16 and support element too to provide clean lines and low visual noise. The latter maybe obtained, e.g., in case the other mechanical connection port 18 has the same size / dimension as the (post-top) size / dimension of the support element too. A “non-flush” mount may allow for a more flexible application to different sizes / dimensions / shapes of the support element too, so that there is no need to know the support element’s size / dimension / shape before supply. The present invention is not limited by the embodiments described herein above as long as being covered by the appended claims.
