Abstract
A lighting system has at least one luminaire having a connection portion, and has a fastening device, with a housing; an electrical contact-making connection, which can be detachably inserted into a supply connection of the luminaire, which supply connection is formed in the connection portion; at least one retaining pin, which has a securing portion, wherein the retaining pin, in a fitted state of the fastening device, extends through a slot formed in the connection portion of the luminaire, and the securing portion of the retaining pin is engaged behind a region of the connection portion that defines the slot; and a fastening portion for fastening a retaining cord and/or for connecting the terminals of an electrical supply cable.
Claims16
A lighting system comprising:
- at least one luminaire having a connection portion, and
- a fastening device, wherein the fastening device comprises:
- a housing;
- an electrical contact-making connection, provided for being detachably inserted into a supply connection of the luminaire, which supply connection is formed in the connection portion and complements said electrical contact-making connection;
- at least one retaining pin, which protrudes from the housing and has a securing portion, wherein the retaining pin, in a fitted state of the fastening device with the contact-making connection inserted in the supply connection of the luminaire, extends through a slot formed in the connection portion of the luminaire, and the securing portion of the retaining pin is engaged behind a region of the connection portion that defines the slot;
- and
- a fastening portion for fastening a retaining cord or for connecting terminals of an electrical supply cable, the fastening portion being coupled to the housing.
A lighting system comprising at least two luminaires, wherein a connection portion of a first luminaire can be connected to a connection portion of a second luminaire by a connector, wherein the connector comprises:
- a connector housing;
- a first electrical contact-making connection and a second electrical contact-making connection,
- wherein the first and second electrical contact-making connections each have a complimentary design to the supply connection of the corresponding luminaire and can be detachably inserted into said supply connection;
- at least one first retaining pin and at least one second retaining pin, wherein the first and second retaining pins each protrude from the connector housing and have a securing portion,
- wherein in a fitted state of the connector with the first and second contact-making connections of the connector each inserted in the respective supply connections of the first and second luminaires, the first retaining pin extends through a slot formed in the connection portion of the first luminaire, and the securing portion of the first retaining pin is engaged behind a region of the connection portion of the first luminaire, which region defines the slot, and the second retaining pin extends through a slot formed in the connection portion of the second luminaire, and the securing portion of the second retaining pin is engaged behind a region of the connection portion of the second luminaire, which region defines the slot.
