Systems and methods for suspending and securing luminaires
A securing system for a luminaire can include a first cable that is configured to be disposed at least partially within a cavity of the luminaire. The securing system can also include a first securing mechanism that receives a first portion of the first cable, where the first securing mechanism is coupled to a first component of the luminaire, where the first securing mechanism has a motile setting and a non-motile setting. The securing system can further include a second securing mechanism that receives a second portion of the first cable, where the second securing mechanism is coupled to a second component of the luminaire. The first securing mechanism, when in the non-motile setting, can secure the first component and the second component in a fixed position relative to each other using the first cable.
1. A securing system for a luminaire, the securing system comprising:
a first cable that is configured to be disposed at least partially within a cavity of the luminaire;
a first securing mechanism that receives a first portion of the first cable, wherein the first securing mechanism is coupled to a first component of the luminaire, wherein the first securing mechanism has a motile setting and a non-motile setting; and
a second securing mechanism that receives a second portion of the first cable, wherein the second securing mechanism is coupled to a second component of the luminaire,
wherein the first securing mechanism, when in the non-motile setting, secures the first component and the second component in a fixed position relative to each other using the first cable,
wherein the first securing mechanism, when in the motile setting, allows the first component and the second component to move from the fixed position relative to each other, and
wherein the cavity is formed, at least in part, by the first component and the second component.
2. The securing system of claim 1 , wherein the second securing mechanism also has the motile setting and the non-motile setting.
3. The securing system of claim 1 , wherein the first securing mechanism is adjustable between the motile setting and the non-motile setting without use of tools.
4. The securing system of claim 1 , wherein the first component of the luminaire comprises a light engine tray, and wherein the second component of the luminaire comprises a power source housing.
5. The securing system of claim 1 , wherein the first cable transmits electrical signals therethrough.
6. The securing system of claim 1 , wherein the motile setting is among a plurality of motile settings.
7. The securing system of claim 1 , wherein the first component comprises at least one first securing feature that secures a first portion of at least one third component of the luminaire when the first securing mechanism is in the non-motile setting.
8. The securing system of claim 7 , wherein the at least one first securing feature has a first profile that complements a second profile of the at least one third component of the luminaire.
9. The securing system of claim 8 , wherein the second profile of the at least one third component of the luminaire comprises a chamfer.
10. The securing system of claim 8 , wherein the second profile of the at least one third component of the luminaire comprises a slot.
11. The securing system of claim 7 , further comprising:
at least one coupling feature disposed in the at least one third component, wherein the at least one first securing feature abuts against the at least one coupling feature.
12. The securing system of claim 7 , further comprising:
at least one coupling feature disposed in the at least one third component, wherein the at least one coupling feature traverses an aperture in the at least one first securing feature.
13. The securing system of claim 7 , wherein the second component comprises at least one second securing feature that secures a second portion of the at least one third component of the luminaire when the first securing mechanism is in the non-motile setting.
14. The securing system of claim 13 , wherein the at least one third component comprises a side panel of the luminaire.
15. The securing system of claim 14 , wherein the side panel has acoustic features.
16. The securing system of claim 13 , wherein the cavity is further formed by the at least one third component.
17. The securing system of claim 13 , wherein the side panel has acoustic features.
18. The securing system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a third securing mechanism that receives a third portion of the first cable, wherein the third securing mechanism is coupled to a structure, wherein the third securing mechanism is used to establish a distance between the structure and the luminaire.
19. The securing system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a third securing mechanism that receives a first portion of a second cable, wherein the third securing mechanism is coupled to the first component of the luminaire, wherein the third securing mechanism has the motile setting and the non-motile setting.
20. The securing system of claim 19 , further comprising:
a fourth securing mechanism that receives a second portion of the second cable, wherein the fourth securing mechanism is coupled to a structure, wherein the third mechanism and the fourth securing mechanism are used in conjunction with the second cable to establish a distance between the structure and the luminaire.
