Deflection component for a luminaire and associated luminaire
View Patent ↗A deflection component for a luminaire is hollow and consists of two sections, of which a first section is parallel to the axis and a second section in contrast runs obliquely outwards.
1. A deflection component for use in a luminaire, which defines an axis, together with a high-pressure discharge lamp, characterized in that the deflection component:
is manufactured from sprung sheet metal and is hollow, and
comprises two sections, the first section comprising a hollow-cylindrical part, which is aligned axially parallel and at least one tongue is stamped out in the first section, the tongue being a holding means, while a second section comprises a funnel-shaped part, adjoins said first section, and is inclined outwards at an angle with respect to the axis.
2. A luminaire, which defines a longitudinal axis, having a high-pressure discharge lamp, in which a discharge vessel is the only bulb, the discharge vessel being aligned axially and having two seals, the luminaire having a housing with a concave, rotationally symmetrical reflector, and being equipped with an apex opening at the end of the reflector, a holding apparatus for the first seal of the discharge vessel being fitted in the region of said reflector, the luminaire also having a deflection component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the length of the second section and the angle of the second section are configured such that shadowing of a discharge arc of the high-pressure discharge lamp is prevented.
3. A luminaire, which defines a longitudinal axis, having a high-pressure discharge lamp, in which a discharge vessel is the only bulb, the discharge vessel being aligned axially and having two seals, the luminaire having a housing with a concave, rotationally symmetrical reflector, and being equipped with an apex opening at the end of the reflector, a holding apparatus for the first seal of the discharge vessel being fitted in the region of said reflector, the luminaire also having a deflection component in accordance with claim 1 .
4. The luminaire as claimed in claim 2 , characterized in that the deflection component is fixed directly on the first seal.
5. The luminaire as claimed in claim 2 , characterized in that the deflection component is a separate part, which is connected to a housing part, in particular to the holding apparatus.
6. The luminaire as claimed in claim 2 , characterized in that the luminaire has an additional cooling apparatus in the region of the second seal.
7. The luminaire as claimed in claim 6 , characterized in that the cooling apparatus comprises at least one cooling plate, which is arranged transversely with respect to the axis of the luminaire.
8. The luminaire as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the length of the second section and the angle of the second section are configured such that the deflection component deflects air flow towards substantially the upper half of the discharge vessel.
