Arch-shaped LED lamps

Abstract

Floor lamps with arch-shaped support rod are provided. Such floor lamps include a cap and a dome-shaped wall projecting from the top of the cap which is provided with a plurality of through-holes. An LED optical group provides a dissipation plate in contact with the dome-shaped wall. The plate has a plurality of holes or open curvilinear recesses along the peripheral edge, arranged substantially to conceal from the observer the dissipation wall.

4. The device of claim 1, comprising a bell onto which the cap fits in a mobile manner, wherein a portion of the bell forms the dome-shaped wall.

5. The device of claim 4, wherein the optical group comprises a driver for piloting the LEDs, coupled to the dissipation plate and connected to the LED light source.

6. The device of claim 5, comprising a connector positioned at the end of the rod and electrically powered, the support rod configured to pass through the dome-shaped wall and connected to the driver group.

7. The device of claim 1, wherein the dissipation plate is concave so as to adhere to the inner surface of the dome-shaped wall.

8. The device of claim 7, wherein the optical group comprises a driver for piloting the at least one LED, coupled to the dissipation plate and connected to the LED light source.

9. The device of claim 8, comprising a connector positioned at the end of the rod and electrically powered, the support rod configured to pass through the dome-shaped wall and connected to the driver group.

10. The device of claim 7, comprising a bell onto which the cap fits in a mobile manner, wherein a portion of the bell forms the dome-shaped wall.

11. The device of claim 10, wherein the optical group comprises a driver for piloting the at least one LED, coupled to the dissipation plate and connected to the LED light source.

12. The device of claim 11, comprising a connector positioned at the end of the rod which is electrically powered, the support rod configured to pass through the dome-shaped connect and connected to the driver group.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

(1) FIG. 1 shows a lighting device according to the present invention.

(2) FIG. 2 shows a detail of the diffuser group of the lighting device in FIG. 1.

(3) FIGS. 3 and 4 show assembly diagrams of some components of the diffuser group in FIG. 2.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(4) With reference to the appended drawings, reference numeral 1 indicates a floor lighting device.

(5) The device 1 comprises a base 2, preferably made by marble, having for example a parallelepiped shape.

(6) Moreover, the device 1 comprises a support rod 4, projecting from the base 2, comprising a first substantially vertical section 4a and a second arched section 4b.

(7) In addition, the lighting device comprises a diffuser group 10, supported by the rod 4.

(8) The diffuser group 10 comprises a cap 12 in the shape of a spherical segment, open above by means of an upper aperture 14.

(9) Preferably, the cap is opaque.

(10) Preferably, a dome-shaped wall 18 provided with a plurality of through holes comes out of the aperture 14.

(11) Preferably, the diffuser group 10 comprises a bell 30, which the cap 12 is fitted onto, in a mobile manner. Part of the bell 30 forms the dome-shaped wall 18 which comes out of the aperture 14 of the cap.

(12) The device 1 further comprises an optical group for the electrical connection and support of the light source.

(13) Preferably, the optical group comprises a connector 40, such as a cabling jack, positioned at the terminal end of the rod 4, from which an electric cable concealed inside it, comes out.

(14) In addition, the optical group comprises a plug 44 suitable for engaging with the bell 30, crossing it, and suitable for the insertion of the connector 40.

(15) For example, the plug 44 comprises an abutment base 44a, abutting with the outer surface of the bell 30, and an insert 44b which projects from the base 44a, which crosses the bell 30.

(16) In addition, the optical group comprises an LED light source 46 and a dissipator group 48, suitable for engaging with the bell 30, inside it, on the side opposite the plug 44.

(17) The dissipator group 48 comprises a driver 50 for piloting the LEDs, connectable to the connector 40 which crosses the bell 30, and a dissipation plate 52, destined to come into contact with the bell 30.

(18) Preferably, the plate 52 is concave, similarly to the bell 30, to adhere to its inner surface.

(19) In addition, the plate 52 is fitted with holes 54 or, along the peripheral edge, of open curvilinear recesses 56 to correspond with the holes 20 of the bell, so that to an observer the presence of the plate 52 is practically concealed.

(20) In addition, the plate 52 has a seat 58 centrally for the insertion of the insert 44b of the plug 44, and a pin 60 projecting into it, which crosses the bottom of the insert 44b and engages the connector 40.

(21) Preferably, the bell 30 and the plate 52 are made by metal, for example by steel.

(22) Preferably moreover the cap 12 is made by metal, for example by steel.

(23) Innovatively, the lighting device described above makes it possible to have LED lighting and at the same time to conceal various functional elements which could detract from the aesthetic appearance of the device.
