Abstract
The invention relates to a rotary device for use for lighting systems which ensure flexible and, if required, even mobile illumination of a room, for example of a television studio. The rotary device according to the invention is mounted at intersections of a transport rail system for conveying transport units, for example lamps. It has two components which can be rotated relative to one another and of which one is in the form of a pivot bearing, serving for fastening at the intersection, for the other, while the other is a rail support containing at least one rail section. According to the invention, each rail section of the rail support is provided with contact tracks so that the transport unit present on the rail section and having current collectors can obtain energy.
Claims5
A rotary lighting system, comprising at least one lamp-carrying transport unit;
- a rail support having at least one rail section for receiving the at least one lamp-carrying transport unit;
- and a pivot bearing for rotatably receiving the rail support,
- wherein the at least one rail section has contact tracks, wherein the lamp-carrying transport unit has current collectors cooperating with the contact track for communicating current to the at least one lamp-carrying transport unit, and wherein the rail support has contact pins for connecting the contact tracks of the at least one rail section with a power source, whereby power is fed to the at least one lamp-carrying transport unit.
