Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] However, conventional lighting fixtures with speakers have the problem that the weight increases or the overall size of the lighting fixture becomes larger because an existing-sized speaker is added to the basic structure of the lighting fixture. For example, when a speaker is housed in a housing in which a light source unit is housed, the size of the housing must be increased, so the overall size of the lighting fixture becomes larger. On the other hand, even when a speaker is externally attached to the housing in which the light source unit is housed, the overall size of the lighting fixture increases by the size of the speaker. Moreover, when the speaker is externally attached, the design (designability) of the entire lighting fixture may deteriorate. In addition, there is also a problem that the workability when installing the lighting fixture deteriorates when the weight or size of the lighting fixture increases. <00,00027> These challenges are particularly severe with pendant-type lighting fixtures that are suspended from the ceiling or other surfaces via cords. In other words, because the basic structure of a pendant-type lighting fixture is simple, consisting of a main body with a light source covered by a shade, adding a speaker of existing size to a pendant-type lighting fixture not only increases the weight and overall size of the fixture, but also requires a major change to the basic structure of the fixture.

[0006] This invention was made to solve these problems, and aims to provide a lighting fixture that has a speaker function without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size, even in a suspended lighting fixture. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] To achieve the above objective, one embodiment of the lighting fixture according to the present invention is a suspended lighting fixture comprising: a main body having a light source; a cord supporting the main body; a shade connected to the main body; and at least one vibrator installed on the shade for vibrating the shade, wherein the vibrator is located on the side of the shade opposite to the light source. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to the present invention, a hanging type lighting fixture with speaker functionality can be realized without significantly altering the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The embodiments described below are all specific examples of the present invention. Therefore, the numerical values, shapes, materials, components, arrangement positions of components, connection forms, etc. shown in the following embodiments are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. Thus, among the components in the following embodiments, components not described in the independent claims indicating the highest-level concept of the present invention are described as optional components.

[0011] Note that each figure is a schematic diagram and is not necessarily drawn precisely. Also, in each figure, the same reference numerals are given to substantially the same configurations, and duplicate descriptions are omitted or simplified. Further, in each figure, the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis represent the three axes of a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system. In the present embodiment, the Z-axis direction is the vertical direction, and the direction perpendicular to the Z-axis (the direction parallel to the XY plane) is the horizontal direction. The X-axis and Y-axis are perpendicular to each other and both are perpendicular to the Z-axis. Note that in this specification, the terms "upper" and "lower" do not necessarily refer to the upward direction (vertically upward) and downward direction (vertically downward) in an absolute spatial perception.

[0012] (Embodiment 1) The configuration of the lighting fixture 1 according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of the lighting fixture 1 according to Embodiment 1. In FIG. 1, (a) is a side view of the lighting fixture 1, and (b) is a view of the shade 30 of the lighting fixture 1 seen from above. Note that (a) in FIG. 1 shows a cross-section taken along Ia-Ia in (b) of FIG. 1.

[0013] As shown in Figure 1, the lighting fixture 1 is a pendant light, a type of hanging lighting fixture. The lighting fixture 1 is installed on the ceiling 2 of a building, such as a house or a shop. In other words, the lighting fixture 1 is suspended from the ceiling 2. In this case, the lighting fixture 1 is installed on the ceiling 2 by being attached to a hook ceiling socket 2a provided on the ceiling 2. The hook ceiling socket 2a is a power supply unit for supplying power to the lighting fixture 1, and is electrically connected to the commercial power supply (grid power supply) via wires, for example, on the back side of the ceiling 2. The lighting fixture 1 can receive power from the commercial power supply by being attached to the hook ceiling socket 2a.

[0014] Note that the lighting fixture 1 may be installed on a duct rail installed on the ceiling 2, etc., instead of on the hook-type ceiling fixture 2a. In this case, the duct rail may be of the type embedded in the ceiling 2, of the type directly attached to the ceiling 2, or of the type suspended from the ceiling 2. Furthermore, the installation location on which the lighting fixture 1 is installed is not limited to the hook-type ceiling fixture 2a and the duct rail.

[0015] As shown in Figure 1, the lighting fixture 1 comprises a main body 10 having a light source 11, a cord 20 supporting the main body 10, a shade 30 connected to the main body 10, a flange 40 for attaching the lighting fixture 1 to the ceiling 2, and a vibrator 50 for vibrating the shade 30.

[0016] The main unit 10 comprises a light source unit 11 and a housing 12. A cord 20 is connected to the main unit 10. The light source unit 11 emits light using power supplied by the cord 20.

[0017] The light source unit 11 is a light emitting unit that emits light that becomes the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1. The light source unit 11 emits, for example, white light. In this embodiment, the light source unit 11 has an LED light source composed of LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes).

[0018] As an example, the LED light source of the light source unit 11 is a COB (Chip On Board) type or SMD (Surface Mount Device) type LED module.

[0019] A COB-type LED module comprises a substrate, one or more LEDs (bare chips) mounted on the substrate, and a sealing member that encloses the LEDs. The sealing member encloses one or more LEDs individually or collectively. A resin material containing a phosphor (phosphor-containing resin) can be used as the sealing member. The phosphor LEDs and the sealing member constitute the light-emitting part of the LED light source.

[0020] An SMD type LED module comprises a substrate and one or more SMD type LED elements mounted on the substrate. An SMD type LED element comprises a white package (container) made of resin or ceramic, an LED (LED chip) mounted in a recess of the package, and a sealing member (phosphor-containing resin) enclosed in the recess of the package.

[0021] In LED modules, for example, blue LED chips that emit blue light when powered on are used as the LED (bare chip). In this case, a silicone resin containing a yellow phosphor such as YAG is used as the sealing material to encase the LED.

[0022] As the light source unit 11 having such an LED light source, an LED bulb with a base can be used. In this case, the light source unit 11, which is an LED bulb, is detachably attached to the main body unit 10. Specifically, the light source unit 11, which is an LED bulb, is attached to the housing 12 of the main body unit 10 by screwing its base into a socket provided in the housing 12 of the main body unit 10. Since the LED bulb has a built-in power supply circuit, commercial AC power is supplied via the main body unit 10.

[0023] Note that the light source unit 11 does not have to be an LED bulb. For example, the light source unit 11 may be fixed to the housing 12 so that it cannot be removed by the user. In this case, the light source unit 11 has an LED light source (LED module) attached to the housing 12, a translucent cover that covers the LED light source, and other components such as a reflector as needed, and the housing 12 has a built-in power supply circuit. Therefore, the LED light source of the light source unit 11 emits light using DC power supplied from the power supply circuit built into the housing 12.

[0024] The housing 12 is a cylindrical case made of resin or metal. If the main unit 10 has a power supply circuit, the power supply circuit is housed inside the housing 12. AC power from the commercial power supply is supplied to the housing 12 via a cord 20. The cord 20 is routed upward from the center of the top of the housing 12.

[0025] The cord 20 is both a support cord for the main body 10 and a power cord for supplying power to the main body 10. One end of the cord 20, the first end 21, is electrically and mechanically connected to the main body 10. The other end of the cord 20, the second end 22, has a flange 40 attached to it. The second end 22 of the cord 20 is the end opposite to the end of the cord 20 that faces the main body 10. Power is supplied to the cord 20 from the commercial power supply via the flange 40.

[0026] The cord 20 is flexible. Specifically, the cord 20 can be freely reshaped by winding, bending, etc.

[0027] Lighting fixture 1 is suspended by a cord 20. Specifically, lighting fixture 1 is installed by suspending the main body 10 and the shade 30 from the ceiling 2 via the cord 20. When lighting fixture 1 is installed, the cord 20 is stretched straight.

[0028] The shade 30 is a cover that covers at least a part of the main body 10. In this embodiment, the shade 30 covers the entire light source 11 and also covers a part of the housing 12. The part of the housing 12 protrudes to the outside through a through hole 31a provided in the center of the upper part 31 of the shade 30.

[0029] Furthermore, the shade 30 is connected to the main body 10. In this embodiment, the shade 30 is connected to the housing 12 of the main body 10. Specifically, the shade 30 is connected to the housing 12 by hooking onto a part of the housing 12. The shade 30 may be fixed to the housing 12 with screws or the like, or it may simply be resting on a stepped portion of the housing 12.

[0030] In this embodiment, the shade 30 is bowl-shaped. That is, the shade 30 has a shape in which the inner diameter gradually increases along the vertical direction. Specifically, the shade 30 has a frustoconical shape as its outer form. That is, the shade 30 has a trapezoidal bowl shape as its cross-section.

[0031] The shade 30 has an upper part 31 and a side part 32. In the shade 30, the upper part 31 is a flat surface with a constant thickness, and the side part 32 is a cylindrical part with a constant thickness and a gradually changing inner diameter. The upper part 31 is provided to cover a small-diameter opening in the side part 32. As described above, a through hole 31a is provided in the center of the upper part 31 of the shade 30, and a part of the housing 12 of the main body 10 protrudes from this through hole 31a. Note that the housing 12 does not have to protrude from the through hole 31a of the shade 30. In this case, the cord 20 pulled out from the housing 12 is inserted through the through hole 31a of the shade 30.

[0032] The shade 30 may or may not be light-transmitting. In this embodiment, the shade 30 is light-transmitting. Because the shade 30 is light-transmitting, it can transmit light from the light source 11.

[0033] The light-transmitting shade 30 may be transparent or diffusive. By using a light-transmitting and diffusive shade 30, the light emitted from the light source 11 and incident on the shade 30 is diffused (scattered) by the shade 30 and then transmitted through the shade 30.

[0034] The shade 30 is made of a translucent material such as a translucent resin material like acrylic or polycarbonate, a glass material, or a translucent ceramic material. In this embodiment, the shade 30 is made of a translucent resin material. In this case, the shade 30 can be a milky white diffusion cover in which a light-diffusing material such as silica particles is dispersed inside.

[0035] Furthermore, the light-transmitting and diffusing shade 30 may be constructed not by dispersing a light-diffusing material inside, but by forming a milky white light-diffusing film containing a light-diffusing material on the surface (inner or outer surface) of the transparent member. Alternatively, the shade 30 may be configured to have light-diffusing properties by applying a diffusion process rather than using a light-diffusing material. For example, the shade 30 may be configured to have light-diffusing properties by forming minute irregularities on the surface of the transparent end cap by applying a surface treatment such as texturing, or by printing a dot pattern on the surface of the transparent end cap.

[0036] Furthermore, if the shade 30 is not light-transmitting, the shade 30 is, for example, a reflective member whose inner surface has high reflectivity. In this case, the light-reflective shade 30 may be made entirely of a white resin or ceramic material, or it may be made of a metal material, or it may be a cover molded into a predetermined shape from a resin or metal material with a light-reflective film formed on its inner surface.

[0037] In this way, the shade 30 controls the light distribution of the lighting fixture 1 by transmitting or reflecting light from the light source 11.

[0038] Furthermore, the shade 30 does not necessarily have to be light-transmitting and / or highly reflective. In this case, the shade 30 may be made of wood or paper. Also, by making the shade 30 out of a thin material such as paper, film, or sheet, the shade 30 becomes more easily vibrated by the vibrator 50. This makes it possible to improve the volume and quality of the sound output from the lighting fixture 1.

[0039] The flange 40 is provided at the second end 22 of the cord 20. The flange 40 has a wiring fitting 41 attached to the second end 22 of the cord 20 and a cover 42 (flange cover) that houses the wiring fitting 41.

[0040] The wiring fitting 41 is a plug that is electrically and mechanically connected to the ceiling hook 2a installed on the ceiling 2. Specifically, the wiring fitting 41 has a metal terminal (blade) that locks onto the ceiling hook 2a. In this case, by inserting the metal terminal of the wiring fitting 41 into the hole (blade receiver) of the ceiling hook 2a and rotating the wiring fitting 41, the blade of the wiring fitting 41 and the blade receiver of the ceiling hook 2a engage. This allows the wiring fitting 41 and the ceiling hook 2a to be electrically and mechanically connected.

[0041] A cord 20 is routed out from the lower end of the flange 40. Specifically, the cord 20 is inserted through a through-hole provided in the cover 42 of the flange 40. The cover 42 covers the wiring fitting 41 and the hook-type ceiling fitting 2a. The cover 42 is made of, for example, a resin material or a metal material.

[0042] The transducer 50 is composed of a coil and a magnet, and converts electrical signals into mechanical vibration signals. In this embodiment, the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30. This allows the shade 30 to vibrate with the transducer 50, and sound can be transmitted to the user through air vibrations. In other words, the shade 30 functions as the cone of a speaker, and together with the transducer 50, the electrical signals input to the transducer 50 can be converted into sound. For example, by vibrating the shade 30 with the transducer 50, the lighting fixture 1 can output sound such as music or voice (message).

[0043] In this embodiment, the transducer 50 is located on the opposite side of the shade 30 from the light source unit 11. In other words, the transducer 50 is located on the outside of the shade 30. Specifically, the transducer 50 is attached to the outer surface of the upper part 31 of the shade 30. Also, in this embodiment, one transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30.

[0044] The transducer 50 is small and lightweight. Specifically, when the shade 30 is viewed from above, the area of ​​the transducer 50 is smaller than the area of ​​the upper part 31 of the shade 30. The external dimensions of the transducer 50 are, for example, 50 mm or less in length, width, and height, preferably 30 mm or less, but are not limited to these dimensions.

[0045] Furthermore, from the perspective of the aesthetic design of the lighting fixture 1, the transducer 50 should be thin and low in height. For example, the height of the transducer 50 should be smaller than its vertical and horizontal lengths. Also, since vibrations are transmitted more effectively when the mounting surface area of ​​the transducer 50 with the shade 30 is larger, from the perspective of the sound quality and volume output from the lighting fixture 1, the vertical and horizontal lengths (mounting surface area) of the transducer 50 should be larger. For example, the vertical and horizontal lengths of the transducer 50 should be longer than its height.

[0046] The transducer 50 may have wireless communication capabilities such as Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi. This allows the user to play music from the lighting fixture 1 by transmitting sound information (sound source) to the transducer 50 via an information terminal such as a smartphone. In other words, the transducer 50 receives sound information transmitted from the user's information terminal and vibrates in response to an electrical signal corresponding to this sound information.

[0047] As described above, the lighting fixture 1 according to this embodiment is a suspended type lighting fixture comprising a main body 10 having a light source 11, a cord 20 supporting the main body 10, and a shade 30 covering the light source 11. Furthermore, a vibrator 50 that vibrates the shade 30 is installed on the shade 30.

[0048] This allows the vibrator 50 to vibrate the shade 30, thereby emitting sound from the lighting fixture 1. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the vibrator 50 is installed on the shade 30 without changing the basic structure of conventional hanging-type lighting fixtures.

[0049] Thus, according to this embodiment of lighting fixture 1, it is possible to realize a hanging type lighting fixture 1 with speaker functionality without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0050] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1 according to this embodiment, the transducer 50 is located on the opposite side of the shade 30 from the light source unit 11. In other words, the transducer 50 is located on the outside of the shade 30.

[0051] This prevents the design of the lighting fixture 1 from being negatively affected by the installation of the transducer 50. In other words, the good appearance of the lighting fixture 1 can be maintained even with the transducer 50 installed. For example, since the transducer 50 is located on the outside of the shade 30 rather than on the inside, the transducer 50 is less likely to be in the user's line of sight when the user looks up at the lighting fixture 1 from below.

[0052] (Modification 1 of Embodiment 1) Next, a modification 1 of Embodiment 1 will be described using Figure 2. Figure 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of the lighting fixture 1A according to modification 1 of Embodiment 1. In Figure 2, (a) is a side view of the lighting fixture 1A, and (b) is a view of the shade 30A of the lighting fixture 1A from above. Figure 2(a) shows the cross section at IIa-IIa in Figure 2(b).

[0053] As shown in Figure 2, the lighting fixture 1A in this modified example differs from the lighting fixture 1 in Embodiment 1 in that a slit 33 is provided in the shade 30A and a diaphragm 51 is provided in the vibrator 50.

[0054] The slit 33 is provided in the peripheral part of the shade 30A around the transducer 50. The slit 33 is a through hole that penetrates the shade 30A and is provided in the upper part 31 of the shade 30A. As shown in Figure 2(b), the slit 33 is provided between the transducer 50 and the main body 10 in a top view. In this modified example, the slit 33 is formed in a straight line, but is not limited to this.

[0055] In this modified example, the transducer 50 is provided with a diaphragm 51. Specifically, the diaphragm 51 is attached to the transducer 50 via a through hole 31b provided in the upper part 31 of the shade 30A. In other words, the diaphragm 51 is inserted through the through hole 31b. The diaphragm 51 is, for example, a plate-shaped member and is made of a metal material, a resin material, a foamed resin material, or paper such as corrugated cardboard or thick paper.

[0056] In this way, by providing a diaphragm 51 on the transducer 50, when the transducer 50 vibrates, not only the shade 30A but also the diaphragm 51 vibrates. In other words, by providing a diaphragm 51 on the transducer 50, the vibration of the transducer 50 can be amplified by the diaphragm 51, causing the shade 30A to vibrate.

[0057] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1A of this modified example, the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30A, similar to the first embodiment described above.

[0058] With this configuration, even in this modified example, it is possible to realize a hanging type lighting fixture 1A with speaker functionality without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0059] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1A in this modified example, the transducer 50 is located on the outside of the shade 30A. Specifically, the transducer 50 is attached to the outer surface of the upper part 31 of the shade 30A.

[0060] This configuration helps to prevent the design of the lighting fixture 1A from being negatively affected by the installation of the transducer 50.

[0061] Furthermore, if the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30A, the vibration of the transducer 50 will cause the shade 30A to vibrate, which may cause fluctuations in the light emitted from the lighting fixture 1A. For example, the light emitted from the lighting fixture 1A may flicker.

[0062] Therefore, in the lighting fixture 1A of this modified example, a slit 33 is provided in the shade 30A, as shown in Figure 2. This allows the slit 33 to block the propagation of vibrations of the shade 30A caused by the transducer 50. Consequently, in the lighting fixture 1A of this modified example, even if the shade 30A vibrates due to the vibration of the transducer 50, the vibration of the shade 30A can be reduced compared to the lighting fixture 1 of the above embodiment 1, which has a shade 30 without a slit, and fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1A can be suppressed.

[0063] In particular, since the slit 33 is provided between the main body 10 having the light source 11 and the vibrator 50 when viewed from above, even if the vibrator 50 vibrates and the shade 30A vibrates, the propagation of the vibration of the shade 30A to the light source 11 can be suppressed. As a result, the vibration of the main body 10 having the light source 11 can be suppressed without excessively suppressing the vibration of the shade 30A for sound output. Therefore, fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1A can be effectively suppressed without significantly reducing the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30A.

[0064] Furthermore, depending on the position and shape of the slit 33, providing a slit 33 in the shade 30A to suppress the propagation of vibrations from the shade 30A can suppress fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1A. However, this can also suppress vibrations from the shade 30A, which may reduce the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30A.

[0065] Therefore, in this modified example, a diaphragm 51 is provided on the transducer 50. With this configuration, even if the vibration of the shade 30A is suppressed by providing a slit 33 in the shade 30A, the vibration of the diaphragm 51 can compensate for the suppression of the vibration of the shade 30A. As a result, even if a slit 33 is provided in the shade 30A, a decrease in the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30A can be effectively suppressed.

[0066] The addition of a diaphragm 51 to the transducer 50 may also be applied to other embodiments and modifications. For example, in the lighting fixture 1 of Embodiment 1 described above, in which the shade 30 does not have a slit, a diaphragm 51 may be added to the transducer 50. This allows the diaphragm 51 to vibrate in addition to the shade 30 by the transducer 50, thereby improving the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30.

[0067] Furthermore, in this modified example, a diaphragm 51 is provided on the transducer 50, but it is not necessary to provide a diaphragm 51 on the transducer 50.

[0068] (Modification 2 of Embodiment 1) Next, a modification 2 of Embodiment 1 will be described using Figure 3. Figure 3 is a diagram showing the configuration of the lighting fixture 1B according to modification 2 of Embodiment 1. In Figure 3, (a) is a side view of the lighting fixture 1B, and (b) is a view of the shade 30B of the lighting fixture 1B from above. Figure 3(a) shows the cross section at IIIa-IIIa in Figure 3(b).

[0069] As shown in Figure 3, the lighting fixture 1B in this modified example differs from the lighting fixture 1 in Embodiment 1 in that it is provided with a vibration damping structure 60 to dampen vibrations and that the vibrator 50 is provided with a diaphragm 51.

[0070] The vibration damping structure 60 is provided at the point where the shade 30B and the main body 10 are connected. In this modified example, the vibration damping structure 60 is the connection point between the shade 30B and the main body 10, and has an elastically deformable shape. In this modified example, the vibration damping structure 60 is provided on the inner circumference of the through hole 31a of the shade 30B.

[0071] The diaphragm 51 is attached to the transducer 50 via a through hole 31b provided in the upper part 31 of the shade 30B, similar to the modification 1 of the embodiment 1 described above. Therefore, in this modification as well, when the transducer 50 vibrates, not only the shade 30B but also the diaphragm 51 vibrates.

[0072] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1B of this modified example, the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30B, similar to the first embodiment described above.

[0073] With this configuration, even in this modified example, it is possible to realize a hanging type lighting fixture 1B with speaker functionality without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0074] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1B of this modified example, the transducer 50 is located on the outside of the shade 30B. Specifically, the transducer 50 is attached to the outer surface of the upper part 31 of the shade 30B.

[0075] This configuration helps to prevent the design of the lighting fixture 1B from being negatively affected by the installation of the transducer 50.

[0076] Furthermore, in the modified lighting fixture 1B, a vibration damping structure 60 is provided at the point where the shade 30B and the main body 10 are connected. In this modified example, the vibration damping structure 60 is the connection point between the shade 30B and the main body 10, and has an elastically deformable shape.

[0077] With this configuration, even if the vibrator 50 vibrates and the shade 30B vibrates, the vibration of the shade 30B is attenuated by the vibration damping structure 60, thus suppressing the propagation of the vibration of the shade 30B to the light source unit 11. As a result, the vibration of the main body unit 10, which has the light source unit 11, can be suppressed without suppressing the vibration of the shade 30B that is used to output sound. Therefore, fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1B can be suppressed without affecting the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30B.

[0078] Furthermore, by making a portion of the shade 30B a vibration damping structure 60, vibrations of the main body 10 can be suppressed without the need for new parts, thereby preventing fluctuations in the light emitted by the lighting fixture 1B.

[0079] Furthermore, depending on the shape of the vibration damping structure 60, providing the vibration damping structure 60 to the shade 30B may suppress vibrations of the shade 30B, resulting in a decrease in the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30B.

[0080] Therefore, in this modified example, as in Modification 1 of Embodiment 1 described above, a diaphragm 51 is provided on the vibrator 50. With this configuration, even if the vibration of the shade 30B is suppressed by providing the vibration damping structure 60 on the shade 30B, the vibration of the diaphragm 51 can compensate for the suppression of the vibration of the shade 30B. As a result, even if the vibration damping structure 60 is provided on the shade 30B, it is possible to effectively suppress a decrease in the sound quality and volume output from the shade 30B.

[0081] In this modified example, a diaphragm 51 is provided on the transducer 50, but it is not necessary to provide a diaphragm 51 on the transducer 50.

[0082] Furthermore, in this modified example, the vibration damping structure 60 is made part of the shade 30B, but it is not limited to this. In other words, the vibration damping structure 60 may be separate from the shade 30B. In this case, as shown in the lighting fixture 1C in Figure 4, a vibration-absorbing material that absorbs vibrations may be inserted between the shade 30C and the housing 12 of the main body 10 as the vibration damping structure 60C. In other words, a vibration-absorbing material may be sandwiched between the connection part between the shade 30C and the housing 12 of the main body 10. As the vibration damping structure 60C, which is the vibration-absorbing material, for example, vibration-damping rubber such as urethane rubber or cushioning material such as a packing can be used. In this case as well, fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1C can be suppressed.

[0083] Furthermore, the vibration damping structures 60 and 60C in this modified example may be applied to other embodiments and modified examples.

[0084] (Embodiment 2) Next, Embodiment 2 will be described using Figure 5. Figure 5 is a diagram showing the configuration of the lighting fixture 1D according to Embodiment 2. In Figure 5, (a) is a side view of the lighting fixture 1D, and (b) is a top view of the shade 30D of the lighting fixture 1D. Figure 5(a) shows a cross-section at Va-Va in Figure 5(b).

[0085] As shown in Figure 5, the lighting fixture 1D according to this embodiment differs from the lighting fixture 1 in the first embodiment in the configuration of the shade 30D. Specifically, in the lighting fixture 1D according to this embodiment, the shade 30D has a recess 34 that is recessed on the light source 11 side. In this embodiment, the transducer 50 is housed in the recess 34 of the shade 30D. Specifically, the transducer 50 is placed on the bottom of the recess 34.

[0086] In this embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30D of the lighting fixture 1D.

[0087] With this configuration, in this embodiment as well, it is possible to realize a hanging type lighting fixture 1D with speaker functionality without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0088] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1D of this embodiment, the transducer 50 is located on the outside of the shade 30D. In particular, in this embodiment, the transducer 50 is housed in a recess 34 provided in the shade 30D.

[0089] This configuration allows the transducer 50 to be hidden by the shade 30D. As a result, when a user looks up at the lighting fixture 1D from below, the transducer 50 is less likely to be in the user's line of sight compared to the lighting fixture 1 of Embodiment 1, which has a shade 30 without a recess. Therefore, the deterioration of the design of the lighting fixture 1D due to the installation of the transducer 50 can be further suppressed.

[0090] Furthermore, the depth of the recess 34 should be greater than or equal to the height of the transducer 50. This allows the transducer 50 to be completely hidden by the shade 30D, so that when the user looks up at the lighting fixture 1D from below, the transducer 50 is not in the user's field of vision.

[0091] (Modified version of Embodiment 2) Next, a modified example of Embodiment 2 will be described using Figure 6. Figure 6 is a diagram showing the configuration of the lighting fixture 1E according to a modified example of Embodiment 2. In Figure 6, (a) is a side view of the lighting fixture 1E, and (b) is a view of the shade 30E of the lighting fixture 1E from above. Figure 6(a) shows a cross-section at VIa-VIa in Figure 6(b).

[0092] As shown in Figure 6, the lighting fixture 1E in this modified example differs from the lighting fixture 1D in Embodiment 2 in that a slit 33E is provided in the shade 30E and a diaphragm 51 is provided in the vibrator 50.

[0093] As shown in Figure 6(b), the slit 33E is provided in the peripheral part of the shade 30E around the transducer 50. The slit 33E is a through-hole that penetrates the shade 30E and is provided in the upper part 31 of the shade 30E. Specifically, the slit 33E is provided at the bottom of a recess 34 provided in the shade 30E.

[0094] In this modified example, multiple slits 33E are provided. Specifically, four slits 33E are provided. Furthermore, the multiple slits 33E are arranged to surround the vibrator 50. In this modified example, each of the four slits 33E is formed in an arc shape and arranged in a ring. The vibrator 50 is then surrounded by the four ring-shaped slits 33E.

[0095] In this modified example, the transducer 50 is provided with a diaphragm 51. Specifically, the diaphragm 51 is attached to the transducer 50 via a through hole 31b provided in the upper part 31 of the shade 30E. In this modified example, the through hole 31b is provided in the center of the bottom of the recess 34. Thus, in this modified example, since the transducer 50 is provided with a diaphragm 51, when the transducer 50 vibrates, not only the shade 30E but also the diaphragm 51 vibrates. In other words, by providing the transducer 50 with a diaphragm 51, the vibration of the transducer 50 can be amplified by the diaphragm 51 to vibrate the shade 30E.

[0096] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1E in this modified example, the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30E, similar to the embodiment 2 described above.

[0097] With this configuration, even in this modified example, it is possible to realize a hanging type lighting fixture 1E with speaker functionality without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0098] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1E in this modified example, the transducer 50 is located on the outside of the shade 30E. Specifically, the transducer 50 is housed in a recess 34 provided in the shade 30E.

[0099] This configuration makes it possible to prevent the design of the lighting fixture 1E from being negatively affected by the installation of the transducer 50, even in this modified example.

[0100] Furthermore, in the modified lighting fixture 1E, a slit 33E is provided in the shade 30E. This allows the slit 33E to block the propagation of vibrations from the vibrator 50 to the shade 30E. Therefore, fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1E can be suppressed.

[0101] In particular, in this modified example, since multiple slits 33E are formed to surround the vibrator 50, even if the vibrator 50 vibrates and the shade 30E vibrates, the propagation of the vibration of the shade 30E to the light source 11 can be effectively suppressed. Therefore, fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1E can be effectively suppressed.

[0102] Furthermore, depending on the position and shape of the slit 33E, providing a slit 33E in the shade 30E to suppress the propagation of vibrations in the shade 30E can suppress fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1E, but may reduce the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30E. However, in this modified example, since a diaphragm 51 is provided on the vibrator 50, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the shade 30E.

[0103] In this modified example, the transducer 50 is provided with a diaphragm 51 and the shade 30E is provided with a slit 33E, but either the diaphragm 51 or the slit 33E may be provided.

[0104] (Embodiment 3) Next, Embodiment 3 will be described using Figure 7. Figure 7 is a diagram showing the configuration of the lighting fixture 1F according to Embodiment 3. In Figure 7, (a) is a side view of the lighting fixture 1F, and (b) is a view of the shade 30 of the lighting fixture 1F from above. Figure 7(a) shows the cross section at VIIa-VIIa in Figure 7(b).

[0105] The lighting fixture 1F according to this embodiment and the lighting fixture 1 according to Embodiment 1 above differ in the position where the transducer 50 is installed. Specifically, in the lighting fixture 1 according to Embodiment 1 above, the transducer 50 was located on the opposite side of the shade 30 from the light source 11 side, but in the lighting fixture 1F according to this embodiment, as shown in Figure 7, the transducer 50 is located on the same side of the shade 30 as the light source 11 side. In other words, in the above embodiment, the transducer 50 was located on the outside of the shade 30, but in this embodiment, the transducer 50 is located on the inside of the shade 30. Specifically, in lighting fixture 1F, the transducer 50 is attached to the inner surface of the upper part 31 of the shade 30.

[0106] Except for the installation position of the transducer 50, the lighting fixture 1F in this embodiment and the lighting fixture 1 in the above embodiment 1 have the same configuration.

[0107] Therefore, in the lighting fixture 1F of this embodiment, the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30, similar to the first embodiment described above.

[0108] With this configuration, in this embodiment as well, it is possible to realize a hanging type lighting fixture 1F with speaker functionality without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0109] Furthermore, in the lighting fixture 1F of this embodiment, unlike in the first embodiment described above, the transducer 50 is located on the same side as the light source unit 11 (i.e., on the inside of the shade 30) relative to the shade 30.

[0110] This configuration offers acoustic advantages compared to the case where the transducer 50 is installed outside the shade 30, as in Embodiment 1 described above. For example, it can improve the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the lighting fixture 1F.

[0111] Furthermore, if the position of the lighting fixture 1F is relatively low relative to the user's line of sight when it is installed (for example, if the user is looking at the outer surface of the upper part 31 of the shade 30), then the transducer 50 should be installed inside the shade 30, as in this embodiment, rather than on the outside of the shade 30. This allows the transducer 50 to be covered by the shade 30, making it less likely for the user to notice the presence of the transducer 50.

[0112] (Embodiment 4) Next, Embodiment 4 will be described using Figure 8. Figure 8 is a diagram showing the configuration of lighting fixture 1G according to Embodiment 4.

[0113] The lighting fixture 1G according to this embodiment and the lighting fixture 1 according to Embodiment 1 differ in the position where the transducer 50 is installed. Specifically, in the lighting fixture 1 according to Embodiment 1, the transducer 50 was installed on the shade 30, but in the lighting fixture 1G according to this embodiment, as shown in Figure 8, the transducer 50 is installed on the cord 20. In this case, the installation position of the transducer 50 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to install it on the lower part of the cord 20 (closer to the shade 30). The transducer 50 is attached and fixed to a part of the cord 20 by a mounting member or the like.

[0114] Except for the installation position of the transducer 50, the lighting fixture 1G in this embodiment and the lighting fixture 1 in the above embodiment 1 have the same configuration.

[0115] As described above, in the lighting fixture 1G of this embodiment, the transducer 50 is installed on the cord 20.

[0116] In this configuration, when the transducer 50 vibrates, the vibration of the transducer 50 propagates through the cord 20 like a string telephone and reaches the shade 30. This causes the shade 30 to vibrate. In other words, in this embodiment as well, the transducer 50 vibrates the shade 30. Specifically, in the first embodiment described above, the transducer 50 directly vibrated the shade 30, but in this embodiment, the transducer 50 indirectly vibrates the shade 30 via the cord 20. By vibrating the shade 30 with the transducer 50 in this way, sound can be output from the lighting fixture 1G.

[0117] Therefore, in this embodiment as well, a hanging type lighting fixture 1G with speaker functionality can be realized without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0118] Furthermore, in this embodiment as well, sound is output from the lighting fixture 1G by vibrating the shade 30, so it is preferable that the vibrator 50 that vibrates the shade 30 be installed close to the shade 30. Therefore, it is preferable to install the vibrator 50 on the lower part of the cord 20, more preferably on the part of the cord 20 that is close to the shade 30. Also, by installing it in this way, the vibrator 50 is hidden by the shade 30 when the user looks up at the lighting fixture 1G from below, so it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the appearance design of the lighting fixture 1G due to the presence of the vibrator 50.

[0119] Furthermore, by installing the transducer 50 on the cord 20 as in this embodiment, it is possible to suppress fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1G compared to the case where the transducer 50 is directly attached to the shade 30 as in Embodiment 1 above.

[0120] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, the transducer 50 can be added later by installing it on the cord 20. For example, the transducer 50 can be attached to the cord 20 when installing the lighting fixture 1G on the ceiling or the like, or after the lighting fixture 1G has been installed on the ceiling or the like.

[0121] In this embodiment, when the transducer 50 is installed on the cord 20, the contact area between the transducer 50 and the cord 20 is smaller than the contact area between the transducer 50 and the shade 30 when the transducer 50 is installed on the shade 30. Therefore, when the transducer 50 is installed on the cord 20, the vibration of the transducer 50 may not be transmitted as effectively as when it is installed on the shade 30. To address this, as shown in Figure 9, when installing the transducer 50A on the cord 20, it is preferable to use a transducer 50A that is wrapped around the cord 20. This allows the mounting surface (contact surface) of the transducer 50A with respect to the cord 20 to be concave, so that even when using a small transducer 50A, the contact area between the transducer 50A and the cord 20 can be increased, improving the sound quality and volume of the sound output from the lighting fixture.

[0122] (Embodiment 5) Next, Embodiment 5 will be described using Figure 10. Figure 10 is a diagram showing the configuration of the lighting fixture 1H according to Embodiment 5.

[0123] In the lighting fixture 1H according to this embodiment, the transducer 50 is not installed on the shade 30. Specifically, as shown in Figure 10, in the lighting fixture 1H according to this embodiment, the transducer 50 is installed on the flange 40. In this embodiment, the transducer 50 is located inside the cover 42 of the flange 40 and is fixed to the cover 42.

[0124] Except for the installation position of the transducer 50, the lighting fixture 1H in this embodiment and the lighting fixture 1 in the above embodiment 1 have the same configuration.

[0125] As described above, in the lighting fixture 1H of this embodiment, the transducer 50 is installed on the flange 40.

[0126] In this configuration, when the transducer 50 vibrates, the vibration of the transducer 50 propagates from the flange 40 to the cord 20 and reaches the shade 30. This causes the shade 30 to vibrate. In other words, in this embodiment as well, the transducer 50 vibrates the shade 30. Specifically, in this embodiment, the transducer 50 indirectly vibrates the shade 30 via the flange 40 and the cord 20. By vibrating the shade 30 with the transducer 50 in this way, sound can be output from the lighting fixture 1H.

[0127] Therefore, in this embodiment as well, a hanging type lighting fixture 1H with speaker functionality can be realized without significantly changing the basic structure of the lighting fixture, while suppressing an increase in weight and size.

[0128] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the transducer 50 is housed within the cover 42 of the flange 40. This allows the transducer 50 to be hidden by the cover 42, making it invisible to the user, thus preventing the installation of the transducer 50 from negatively impacting the appearance of the lighting fixture 1H.

[0129] Furthermore, by installing the transducer 50 on the flange 40 as in this embodiment, it is possible to suppress fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1H compared to the case where the transducer 50 is directly installed on the shade 30 as in Embodiment 1 above.

[0130] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, the transducer 50 can be retrofitted by installing it on the flange 40. For example, when installing a lighting fixture 1H on a ceiling or the like, the transducer 50 can be attached to the flange 40.

[0131] (Other variations) Although the lighting fixture according to the present invention has been described above based on embodiments and modifications, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and modifications.

[0132] For example, in embodiments 1 to 5 described above, only one transducer 50 was installed, but this is not limited to this. In other words, multiple transducers 50 may be installed in a single lighting fixture. Specifically, as shown in the lighting fixture 1I in Figure 11, four transducers 50 may be installed on the outer surface of the upper part 31 of the shade 30I. In this case, the four transducers 50 may include a transducer 50 for high frequencies and a transducer 50 for low frequencies. Also, when installing multiple transducers 50, slits 33 may be placed between two adjacent transducers 50, as shown in Figure 11. For example, as shown in Figure 11, if four transducers 50 are installed in a ring shape at 90-degree intervals, it is preferable to form four slits 33 radially at 90-degree intervals. In other words, it is preferable to form a slit 33 for each transducer 50. This allows the slits 33 to block the propagation of vibrations from each transducer 50 when a transducer 50 for high frequencies and a transducer 50 for low frequencies are installed, preventing interference between the vibrations of each transducer 50. In other words, the sounds become less likely to blend together. Therefore, the sound quality of the sound output from the lighting fixture 1I can be improved.

[0133] Furthermore, while Figure 11 shows linear slits 33 radially formed between two adjacent transducers 50, the design is not limited to this. For example, as shown in Figure 12, the shape of each of the four slits 33J formed on the upper part 31 of the shade 30J may be arc-shaped. In this case, each slit 33J may be positioned such that a portion is located between two adjacent transducers 50 and another portion is located between the transducer 50 and the main body 10. This prevents the vibrations of each transducer 50 from interfering with each other and suppresses the propagation of vibrations of each transducer 50 to the main body 10 having the light source 11. Therefore, the sound quality of the sound output from the lighting fixture 1I can be improved, and fluctuations in the illumination light of the lighting fixture 1I can also be suppressed.

[0134] Furthermore, although the light source unit 11 of the main body 10 was exposed in embodiments 1 to 5 described above, this is not limited to this. For example, a translucent cover 70 covering the light source unit 11 may be provided, as in the lighting fixture 1K shown in Figure 13. In this case, a transparent cover or a milky white diffuser cover can be used as the translucent cover 70.

[0135] Furthermore, in embodiments 1 to 5 described above, the shape of the shades 30 to 30E was a trapezoidal bowl shape in cross-section, but this is not limited to this.

[0136] For example, as shown in Figure 14, the shape of the shade 30L may be a bowl shape (e.g., hemispherical) that forms part of a sphere. In this case, in order to make the transducer 50 less visible to the user, the transducer 50 should be installed on the outside of the shade 30L. Specifically, the transducer 50 should be installed on the outer surface of the upper part of the shade 30L. Although not shown in the figures, the shape of the shade may also be a bowl shape of other shapes such as a cone.

[0137] Furthermore, the shape of the shade 30M may be cylindrical, as shown in the lighting fixture 1M in Figure 15. In this case, the transducer 50 may be installed inside the shade 30M. In particular, when the shade 30M is a long, slender tube, as shown in the lighting fixture 1M in Figure 15, it is preferable to install the transducer 50 inside the shade 30M rather than outside. This allows the transducer 50 to be covered by the shade 30M, making it less likely for the user to notice the presence of the transducer 50.

[0138] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 16, the external shape of the shade 30N may be spherical. In this case, the transducer 50 should be installed inside the shade 30N in order to make it difficult for the user to see. When the lighting fixture 1N is installed at a high position relative to the user's line of sight, the transducer 50 should be installed above the shade 30N. On the other hand, when the lighting fixture 1N is installed at a relatively low position relative to the user's line of sight, the transducer 50 should be installed below the shade 30N.

[0139] Furthermore, the shape of the shade 30O may be a rectangular tube, as shown in the lighting fixture 1O in Figure 17. In this case, the transducer 50 should be installed on the outside of the shade 30O in order to make it less visible to the user. Specifically, the transducer 50 should be installed on the upper outer surface of the shade 30O. Also, the shade 30O shown in Figure 17 is composed of a wooden frame and paper (such as Japanese paper) that covers the opening of the wooden frame. This makes it easier for the paper constituting the shade 30O to vibrate due to the transducer 50, thereby improving the volume and quality of the sound output from the lighting fixture 1O.

[0140] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 18, the shape of the shade 30P may be flat. For example, the shade 30P can be a disc or a rectangular plate. In this case, in order to make the transducer 50 less visible to the user, the transducer 50 should be installed on the upper side of the shade 30P. Specifically, the transducer 50 should be installed on the upper outer surface of the shade 30P.

[0141] Furthermore, in embodiments 1 to 5 described above, the LED light source of the light source unit 11 was a BY-type white LED light source that emits white light using a blue LED chip and a yellow phosphor, but it is not limited to this. For example, a phosphor-containing resin containing a red phosphor and a green phosphor may be used, and this may be combined with a blue LED chip to emit white light. In addition, to improve color rendering, a red phosphor or a green phosphor may be added in addition to the yellow phosphor. Furthermore, an LED chip that emits a color other than blue may be used. For example, an ultraviolet LED chip that emits ultraviolet light with a shorter wavelength than the blue light emitted by a blue LED chip may be used, and white light may be emitted using a blue phosphor, a green phosphor, and a red phosphor that are mainly excited by ultraviolet light and emit blue light, red light, and green light, respectively.

[0142] Furthermore, while embodiments 1 to 5 above illustrate the use of LEDs as the light-emitting elements of the light source unit 11, the light-emitting elements of the light source unit 11 may also be semiconductor light-emitting elements such as semiconductor lasers, organic EL (Electro-Luminescence), inorganic EL, or other solid-state light-emitting elements. In addition, the light source unit 11 may be composed of fluorescent lamps or the like instead of solid-state light-emitting elements.

[0143] Furthermore, the present invention also includes forms obtained by applying various modifications to the above embodiments as conceived by those skilled in the art, or forms realized by arbitrarily combining the components and functions of the above embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
