[Figure 6] 1 is a perspective view showing the installation of a cubicle 1 to which a lighting device support member 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is attached. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0015] The lighting device support member 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is used as a support member for a lighting device to which an LED lighting device 10 or the like is attached. Here, in the case of this embodiment, the lighting device attached to the lighting device support member 100 will be described as an example in which the LED lighting device 10 is attached, but the lighting device attached to the lighting device support member 100 is not limited to this.

[0016] Furthermore, the lighting device support member 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention can be attached to the top surface 5 of the cubicle 1 and used to illuminate the area near the front door 3 of the cubicle 1 with the LED lighting device 10. Here, the object to which the lighting device support member 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention can be attached is not limited to the cubicle 1, but can be any housing for electrical equipment.

[0017] Hereinafter, a lighting device support member 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a perspective view illustrating the lighting device support member 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a side view of the lighting device support member 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention (a view of the first side plate portion 111 and the second side plate portion 112 as seen from the front).

[0018] The bottom plate portion 105 is configured to serve as a base portion when the lighting device support member 100 is attached to the cubicle 1. The bottom plate portion 105 has a longitudinal direction that is aligned with the elongated LED lighting device 10 to be attached. In FIG. 1 , the left side of the bottom plate portion 105 is the front side 101 of the lighting device support member 100 (the side illuminated by the LED lighting device 10 supported by the lighting device support member 100), and the right side is the rear side 102 of the lighting device support member 100.

[0019] The bottom plate portion 105 is provided with through-holes 106, and the lighting device support member 100 is attached to the cubicle 1 through these through-holes 106 with fastening means such as bolts and nuts. In this embodiment, three through-holes 106 are provided, but the number of through-holes 106 can be any number as long as it is two or more. Furthermore, the through-holes 106 may be circular through-holes or elongated holes.

[0020] At both ends in the longitudinal direction, a first side plate 111 is provided that stands upright from the bottom plate 105, and a second side plate 112 is provided that extends perpendicular to the direction in which the first side plate 111 stands upright. The first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 form a substantially L-shaped frame portion as shown in Fig. 2 at both ends of the bottom plate 105. In this embodiment, a pair of such substantially L-shaped frame portions is provided, but the number of such frame portions provided can be any number as long as it is two or more.

[0021] Illumination device support plate portions 130 are provided so as to extend in the longitudinal direction from the two second side plate portions 112. In the present embodiment, the illumination device support plate portions 130 extend from the two second side plate portions 112 in a direction such that the illumination device support plate portions 130 face each other, but this direction is not necessarily required.

[0022] The lighting device support plate 130 is provided with a through-hole 136 that is used when attaching the LED lighting device 10 to the lighting device support plate 130. Such a through-hole 136 may be a circular through-hole, a U-shaped notch, or an elongated hole. The type of through-hole 136 that can be provided on the lighting device support plate 130 may be arbitrary.

[0023] 2, the main surface 131 on the front side 101 of the lighting device support plate 130 has an inclination angle of θ. The main surface 131 of the lighting device support plate 130 has an inclination angle θ that moves away from the first side plate 111 as it goes upward. The inclination angle θ may be any angle as long as it is greater than 0° and less than 90°, but the inclination angle θ is preferably set to 45°.

[0024] A blind plate 150 is provided along the longitudinal direction on the side of the lighting device support plate 130 extending from the second side plate 112. This blind plate 150 is provided so as to communicate with the bottom plate 105 and the first side plate 111 at both ends. By arranging a power supply line (not shown) to the LED lighting device 10 on the rear side 102 of the blind plate 150, the power supply line can be hidden from view from the front door 3 side of the cubicle 1.

[0025] Next, we will explain how to attach the LED lighting device 10 to the lighting device support member 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, which is configured as described above. Fig. 3 is a perspective view illustrating how to attach the LED lighting device 10 to the lighting device support member 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 4 is a side view of how the LED lighting device 10 is attached to the lighting device support member 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention (a view of the first side plate portion 111 and the second side plate portion 112 from the front).

[0026] It is assumed that threaded holes (not shown) are drilled on the surface of the LED lighting device 10 that is opposite to the irradiation surface 13. Fastening means such as bolts are inserted into the through-holes 136 of the lighting device support plate 130 and screwed into the threaded holes, thereby fixing the LED lighting device 10 to the lighting device support plate 130 as shown in FIG.

[0027] The main surface 131 of the lighting device support plate 130 has an inclination angle θ, so that when the LED lighting device 10 is fixed to the lighting device support plate 130, the normal to the illumination surface 13 of the LED lighting device 10 is attached to the lighting device support member 100 with a depression angle of θ. This depression angle θ is preferably set to 45°, which makes it possible to efficiently illuminate the front door 3 side of the cubicle 1.

[0028] 5 is a perspective view illustrating the attachment of the lighting device support member 100, to which the LED lighting device 10 is attached, to the cubicle 1. By utilizing the penetration portion 106 in the bottom plate portion 105, the lighting device support member 100 can be attached to the top surface 5 of the cubicle 1 with fastening means such as bolts. This allows the front door 3 side of the cubicle 1 to be illuminated by the irradiation surface 13 of the LED lighting device 10.

[0029] 6 is a diagram showing an example of installation of a cubicle 1 to which a lighting device support member 100 is attached. In this example, one lighting device support member 100 is attached to one cubicle 1, but the lighting device support member 100 may be attached to the cubicle 1 in any manner. For example, two lighting device support members 100 may be attached to one cubicle 1, or one lighting device support member 100 may be attached to two adjacent cubicles 1.

[0030] As described above, the lighting device support member 100 of the present invention has a main surface 131 of the lighting device support plate portion 130 that supports the lighting device with an inclination angle θ. With this lighting device support member 100 of the present invention, it is possible to provide the desired lighting near the front of the cubicle without performing work to attach a hanging bolt to the ceiling slab.

[0031] Although the present invention has been described above based on the embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various modifications to the above embodiments and combinations of the embodiments within the scope of the same or equivalent to the present invention are also included in the scope of the present invention.
