To do. On the other hand, by interposing the guide member 17, the slide member can be easily arranged even on the instrument body whose upper surface is not flat.
The two pairs of slide members 8 slide in the width direction of the instrument body, respectively, and in this embodiment, they are composed of a combination of two slide members 8 having the same shape. FIG. 6A shows a plan view of the isomorphic slide member 8, and FIG. 6B shows a bottom view of the isomorphic slide member 8. The isomorphic slide member 8 is formed from a plan-viewing rectangular isomorphic slide member base 8a arranged on both outer sides in the width direction of the instrument body and an isomorphic slide member base 8a having the same height in the vertical direction as the isomorphic slide member base 8a. The same as the projecting portion 20 from the isomorphic slide member base 8a so as to be adjacent to the projecting portion 20 at a position higher in the vertical direction than the flat plate-shaped projecting portion 20 projecting in the width direction of the instrument body and the isomorphic slide member base 8a. It is configured to include a rectangular flat plate-shaped regulating portion 21 in a plan view that protrudes in the direction and is discontinuous with the protruding portion 20.
In this embodiment, the isomorphic slide member base 8a and the projecting portion 20 are formed of the same metal plate material, and the regulation portion 21 of another member also formed of the metal plate material is spot welded to the upper surface of the isomorphic slide member base 8a. The same-shaped slide member 8 is formed by being joined by such means. Further, in this embodiment, the slide member side guide portion 22 is formed by bending both ends of the same-shaped slide member base portion 8a and the protrusion 20 in the longitudinal direction of the instrument body upward. The outer surface of the slide member side guide portion 22 in the longitudinal direction of the instrument body slides into contact with the inner surface of the guide member side guide portion 19 in the longitudinal direction of the instrument body, and the slide of the slide member 8 having the same shape in the width direction of the instrument body is guided.
Further, a screw hole 11 is formed in the protruding portion 20 of the slide member 8 having the same shape, and a long hole 10 on the slide member side is formed in the regulating portion 21. Of these, the screw hole 11 formed in the protruding portion 20 of the slide member 8 having the same shape is the one in which the screw portion 12b of the set screw 12 inserted into the elongated hole 5 is screwed from below the main body portion 2 of the instrument main body 1. Is. This set screw 12 has a screw portion 12b and a knob portion 12a, and is used with the screw portion 12b facing upward and the knob portion 12a facing downward. Therefore, if the threaded portion 12b of the set screw 12 inserted into the slotted hole 5 is screwed into the screw hole 11 formed in the protruding portion 20 of the isomorphic slide member 8 and tightened, the isomorphic slide member 8 becomes the main body portion of the instrument body 1. Fixed to 2. Then, the screw portion 12b of the set screw 12 screwed into the mating slide member 8 on the mating side forming the pair is inserted into the slide member side elongated hole 10 formed in the regulation portion 21 of the same shape slide member 8.
When these two slide members 8 having the same shape are combined to form a pair, as shown in FIG. 7, the protruding portion 20 and the regulating portion 21 face each other so that the regulating portion 20 is above the protruding portion 20. Insert 21. As a result, since the regulating portion 21 is superposed on the protruding portion 20 of the paired pair of the same-shaped slide members 8, the screw of the set screw 12 screwed into the screw hole 11 of the protruding portion 20. The protruding portion of the portion 12b penetrates the elongated hole 10 on the slide member side of the regulating portion 21. Therefore, as described above, the set screw 12 in which the screw portion 12b is inserted into the elongated hole 5 from below the main body portion 2 of the instrument main body 1 is screwed into the screw hole 11 of the protruding portion 20 of the slide member 8 of the same shape and tightened. For example, the two isomorphic slide members 8 are fixed to the instrument body 1 respectively.
Further, by loosening the set screw 12 for fixing each of the isomorphic slide members 8, each of the isomorphic slide members 8 can be slid in any direction in the width direction of the instrument body. In this case, the elongated hole 5, the elongated hole 10 on the slide member side, and the threaded portion 12b of the set screw 12 inserted therein are also slide guides in the width direction of the instrument body with respect to each of the paired isomorphic slide member 8. It becomes. Further, the rotation operation of the set screw 12 and the slide operation of the slide member 8 having the same shape in the width direction of the instrument body can be performed by pinching the knob portion 12a of the set screw 12 from below the instrument body 1, that is, from the indoor side. In this embodiment, two pairs of slide members 8 having the same shape can be slid in the same direction. Then, depending on the installation location, it may be easier to install by sliding two slide members 8 having the same shape in the same direction.
An engaging portion 13 is provided on the isomorphic slide member base 8a of the isomorphic slide member 8. The engaging portion 13 engages with the upper end portion of the vertical piece V of the T bar T as in the first embodiment, and is the outer tip portion in the width direction of each instrument body of the slide member 8 having the same shape, that is, the same shape. It is provided on the slide member base 8a. The engaging portion 13 is projected from the same-shaped slide member base 8a toward the outside in the width direction of the instrument body, and is mounted on the upper end surface of the vertical piece V of the T-bar T from the same-shaped slide member base 8a. A contact portion 15 that is projected outward in the width direction of the instrument body and abuts on the inner side surfaces of the vertical pieces V of the pair of T bars T facing each other when the slide member 8 having the same shape is slid outward in the width direction of the instrument body. And have.
Further, in this embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the retaining portion 16 is formed downward from the protruding tip portion of the mounting portion 14. The retaining portion 16 is for regulating the mounting portion 14 from easily falling off from the upper end surface of the vertical piece V of the T bar T when the slide member 8 having the same shape is slid inward in the width direction of the instrument body. Is. The engaging portion 13 is formed by bending a metal plate material or joining / connecting the metal plate material by spot welding or the like, as in the case of the isomorphic slide member 8. In particular, the contact portion 15 is formed by the isomorphic slide member base 8a. It is made of the same plate material as.
When the fixture body 1 of the lighting fixture of this embodiment is attached between two pairs of T-bars T, the fixture body 1 is retracted inward in the width direction of the fixture body with two pairs of slide members 8 having the same shape. Insert between a pair of T-bars T. At this time, the outer end portion of the same-shaped slide member 8 retracted inward in the width direction of the instrument body in the width direction of the instrument body, that is, the tip portion of the mounting portion 14 and the contact portion 15 of the engaging portion 13 is the instrument body of the instrument body 1. Since the outer end portion in the width direction, that is, the peripheral portion 3 is located inside in the width direction of the instrument body, the isomorphic slide member 8 does not interfere with the T bar T.
After inserting the instrument body 1 between the pair of T-bars T, lift the instrument body 1 slightly, pinch the set screw 12 knob 12a with the set screw 12 loose, and each set screw 12 knob 12a. Is moved outward in the width direction of the instrument body, and each of the two isomorphic slide members 8 is slid outward in the width direction of the instrument body. When each of the two isomorphic slide members 8 is slid outward in the width direction of the instrument body, as shown in FIG. 8, the abutting portions 15 of the engaging portions 13 are the inner surfaces of the vertical pieces V of the pair of T bars T facing each other. In that state, the knob portion 12a is rotated to screw and tighten the set screw 12, and each of the two isomorphic slide members 8 is fixed to the main body portion 2 of the instrument main body 1. As a result, the instrument body 1 is positioned between the pair of T-bars T.
At this time, if the building in which the lighting equipment is installed has been built for a long time, the pair of T-bars T may not be parallel to each other. In the lighting fixture of this embodiment, when the fixture body 1 is positioned, the two isomorphic slide members 8 slide freely in the width direction of the fixture body, as in the first embodiment. It can be freely arranged between the pair of T-bars T in the width direction of the instrument body, and as a result, the instrument body 1 can be positioned at an appropriate position. Then, if the instrument body 1 is lowered in this state, the mounting portion 14 of the engaging portion 13 is mounted on the upper end surface of the vertical piece V of the T bar T, and as shown in FIG. 9, the instrument body 1 is paired. It is installed between T bars and T. When the fixture body 1 is attached between the pair of T-bars T, the line LED unit E, which is a light emitter, is attached to the fixture body 1, and the installation of the lighting fixture is completed.
When the line LED unit E is housed in the line LED unit housing of the main body 2 of the fixture body 1 and attached, the slotted hole 5 and the set screw 12 are located above the line LED unit E, so from below, that is, on the indoor side. From here, the slotted hole 5 and the set screw 12 are hidden behind the line LED unit E and cannot be seen, and the appearance is good. If a plurality of pairs of elongated holes 5 formed in the main body 2 of the instrument main body 1 are formed at both ends of the instrument main body in the longitudinal direction of the main body 2, interference between the interfering object and the slide member 8 having the same shape can be avoided and the same shape can be avoided. The slide member 8 can be arranged at an appropriate position.
As described above, the luminaire of this embodiment has the same effect as that of the first embodiment. Further, two pairs of slide members are composed of a combination of two isomorphic slide members 8 having the same shape, and each of the isomorphic slide members 8 has a flat plate-shaped isomorphic slide member base 8a on which the engaging portion 13 is formed. , At the same height as the isomorphic slide member base 8a in the vertical direction, and at a position higher in the vertical direction than the planar flat plate-shaped projecting portion 20 projecting from the isomorphic slide member base 8a in the width direction of the instrument body. A rectangular flat plate-shaped regulating portion 21 that protrudes from the same-shaped slide member base 8a so as to be adjacent to the protruding portion 20 in the same direction as the protruding portion 20 and is discontinuous with the protruding portion 20 is provided. In 21, a long hole 10 on the side of the slide member, which is long in the width direction of the instrument body, is formed to insert the set screw 12 screwed into the slide member 8 having the same shape on the mating side forming the pair. As a result, the long hole 5 on the instrument body 1 side, the long hole 10 on the slide member side, and the set screw 12 serve as guides to each other, and the slide of the same-shaped slide member 8 in the width direction of the instrument body is stabilized, and two slides are made. By making the members the same shape, the number of parts can be reduced.
