Mounting System, Especially for Lamps

Abstract

The invention relates to a mounting system, especially for a lamp, with a mounting unit ( 1 ) and a housing bottom plate ( 4 ) which are connected by a connecting device to connecting elements ( 2, 5 ) cooperating in pairs. The first connecting element ( 2 ) is formed as a ring with a surrounding ridge ( 3 ), and the second connecting element ( 5 ) is formed like a cover with a cover bottom ( 7 ) and a collar portion ( 6 ) consisting of individual clips. The second connecting element ( 5 ) is slidable on the first connecting element ( 2 ) in such a way that its collar portion ( 6 ) with the clips lockingly engages the back face of the ridge ( 3 ) of the first connecting element ( 2 ) and can be brought into a removal position by a force acting on the cover ( 7 ).

1 . Mounting system, especially for lamps, with a mounting unit ( 1 ) fixable to a wall or a ceiling and a housing bottom plate ( 4 ), wherein the mounting unit ( 1 ) and the housing bottom plate ( 4 ) are releasably connected to each other by at least one connecting device and the connecting device comprises connecting elements ( 2 ,  5 ) which are provided on the mounting unit ( 1 ) and the housing bottom plate ( 4 ) and are cooperating in pairs, characterized in that the first connecting element ( 2 ) of the connecting device is formed as a ring with a surrounding ridge ( 3 ) and the second connecting element ( 5 ) is formed like cover with a cover bottom ( 7 ) and a collar portion ( 6 ) consisting of individual clips, wherein the second connecting element ( 5 ) is slidable on the first connecting element ( 2 ) in such a way, that its collar portion ( 6 ) with the clips lockingly engages the back face of the ridge ( 3 ) of the first connecting element ( 2 ), and wherein the second connecting element ( 5 ) can be brought into a removal position by a force acting on the cover ( 7 ) in the direction towards the first connecting element ( 2 ), in which removal position the clip-like collar portion ( 7 ) is extended outwardly and releases the ridge ( 3 ) of the first connecting element ( 2 ).
