## Abstract

A lamp, including an illuminant, a housing, and a shielding element, wherein the illuminant is situated in the housing, wherein the shielding element at least partially covers a first end area of the housing and protrudes from the first end area, characterized in that the shielding element has a first standing area that is directed away from the housing.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A lamp comprising:
a housing having a first end area;
an illuminant provided in the housing, the lamp having a recess that extends through the housing; and
a shielding element provided on the housing to at least partially cover and protrude from the first end area of the housing, and having a first standing area opposite the housing.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the first standing area includes a flat portion configured to support the lamp on a horizontal plane.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the first standing area has a ring-shaped design.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the recess extends centrally through the housing.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the shielding element protrudes circumferentially from the first end area of the housing.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the shielding element has a rotationally symmetrical design.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The lamp according claim 1, wherein the illuminant is a multi-colored light source configured to illuminate in different colors.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the housing has a second standing area with a flat portion configured to support the lamp on a horizontal plane.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The lamp according to claim 8, wherein the second standing area is situated in a second end area of the housing, wherein the second end area is situated opposite from the first end area.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the lamp has a control unit configured to control the illuminant.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The lamp according to claim 10, wherein the control unit is configured to adjust the brightness of the illuminant.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The lamp according to claim 1, wherein the lamp includes a stand configured to receive the housing.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The lamp according to claim 12, wherein the stand is configured to be received in the recess.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The lamp according to claim 12, wherein the stand includes a stop element, wherein the stop element is shaped to be coupled to the second end area of the housing.

### Claim 15 (depends on 1)

The lamp according claim 1, wherein the lamp includes a rechargeable energy store.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The lamp according to claim 15, wherein the energy store is chargeable via the contact sensor.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

The lamp according to claim 15, wherein the energy store is inductively chargeable.

### Claim 18 (depends on 15)

The lamp according to claim 15, wherein the illuminant is a multi-colored light source configured to illuminate in different colors to indicate a state of charge of the energy store.

### Claim 19 (depends on 1)
