Description

  The present invention relates to an attachment device, and more particularly, to an attachment device for a straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp to a duct rail.

In recent years, LED illuminating lamps using light emitting diodes (LEDs) are becoming widespread. LED lighting has higher luminous efficiency than conventional lighting such as incandescent bulbs and fluorescent lamps. Therefore, according to the LED illuminating lamp, since the power consumption can be reduced, the power cost can be greatly reduced and the emission of CO ₂ can be greatly reduced. Moreover, the LED illumination lamp has a very long life compared with the conventional illumination lamp. Therefore, the purchase cost of the illumination lamp itself can be reduced, and the number of replacements can be reduced. Therefore, labor and cost for replacement can be greatly reduced. In addition, by using the LED illumination lamp, it is possible to reduce the risk of working at high places such as the ceiling. Further, the LED lighting does not need to use glass as the material of the transparent tube unlike the conventional lighting. For this reason, since a resin or the like is usually used as the material, it is difficult to break and there is little danger in replacement work. As described above, the LED illumination lamp has various excellent features as compared with the conventional illumination lamp, and the replacement is proceeding accordingly.

  As LED lighting, those having various shapes or various connecting terminals are being sold so that they can be mounted in various places. Among them, the straight tube LED fluorescent lamp has the same shape and connection terminal as the conventional straight tube fluorescent lamp and can be attached to an existing lighting device for a straight tube fluorescent lamp, so that it is widely used. It has become to. However, in this case, since the lighting method differs between the conventional fluorescent lamp and the LED fluorescent lamp, existing devices such as a ballast and an inverter are not required for the LED fluorescent lamp. Therefore, when installing the LED fluorescent lamp, it is necessary to perform construction such as wiring change to avoid connection with these devices.

  On the other hand, in the interior of a house or a store, duct rails for attaching and using small lighting fixtures are widely installed on ceiling surfaces, wall surfaces, and the like. Since the lighting equipment can be attached to various places on the rail, the position of the lighting equipment can be freely changed in accordance with, for example, the arrangement of furniture at home and the lifestyle. Duct rails are also used when installing multiple lighting fixtures with various colors and sizes, etc., for spotlighting exhibits and displays for the purpose of enhancing the display effect in showrooms and exhibition halls. It is done.

  Various attachment devices for installing and using various types of illumination lamps on such duct rails have been developed (for example, Utility Model Registration No. 3118854). By using such an attachment device, a conventional fluorescent lamp lighting device can be connected to the duct rail, and a straight tube LED fluorescent lamp can be attached to the duct rail.

  However, when a straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp is attached to the conventional lighting device for a fluorescent lamp connected to the duct rail in this way, the existing ballast, inverter, etc. are unnecessary as described above. Such complicated work is required. In addition, since the fluorescent lamp lighting device has a ballast, an inverter, and other devices, the size is large. In addition, the mounting device for connecting the duct rail and the fluorescent lamp lighting device is perpendicular to the duct rail. Due to the projecting structure, installing a straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp on the duct rail often takes a lot of space and is often in the way. Furthermore, there are LED fluorescent lamps of various colors and lengths, and the duct rail can be used by installing a plurality of straight tube LED fluorescent lamps. However, when a conventional fluorescent lamp lighting device is installed on a duct rail using the above-described mounting device and a straight tube LED fluorescent lamp is mounted, a fluorescent lamp corresponding to the length of each straight tube LED fluorescent lamp is used. It is difficult to attach more straight tube type LED fluorescent lamps because a lighting device for lighting must be prepared and space is required as described above. As described above, although there is a demand for compactly mounting the straight tube type LED fluorescent lamp on the duct rail, there is no mounting device capable of realizing it.
