Основание опоры светильника

Номер: RU0000174555U1
Автор: Дмитрий Юрьевич Хорев
Принадлежит: Дмитрий Юрьевич Хорев

Полезная модель относится к непереносимым осветительным устройствам или системам, в частности к конструктивному исполнению уличных фонарей и выносных опор, а именно к конструктивным элементам и арматуре и может быть использована как для защиты кабелей и электрооборудования от действия внешней среды, так и для декорирования фонарных столбов и опор. Техническим результатом предлагаемого основания опоры светильника является повышение срока службы и снижение трудоемкости сборки, что позволяет снизить трудозатраты и повысить конкурентоспособность изделия. Для достижения заявленного технического результата в основании опоры светильника, содержащем оболочку, в которой выполнены отверстия для болтового соединения, изменена конструкция оболочки. Оболочка выполнена из одной детали в форме усеченного конуса из линейного полиэтилена низкой плотности. Изготовление оболочки из линейного полиэтилена низкой плотности снижает вес изделия, обеспечивает высокую коррозионную стойкость, прочность и устойчивость к механическим воздействиям, что повышает срок службы изделия. Кроме того, за счет гибкости и упругости материала это позволяет выполнить оболочку из одной детали, что повышает герметичность, сокращает время монтажа/демонтажа, снижает трудоемкость и расходы при изготовлении. Эти преимущества делают оболочку более конкурентоспособной на рынке аналогичных товаров. Таким образом, указанные преимущества заявленного основания опоры светильника позволили повысить срок службы изделия и снизить трудоемкость сборки, что обеспечило снижение трудозатрат и повышение конкурентоспособности изделия. 2 ил.

Christmas is a holiday that is observed by people all over the world where the most common scene displayed is the nativity scene. Typically the nativity scene is a stable with a baby lying in a cradle and surrounded by individuals and animals. While the nativity sets may include a lighted star, unfortunately, they do not include a star where the rays of the star actually shine on and illuminate the manger. The present invention comprises a first pole which supports a lighted star and a spotlight that is oriented to illuminate the nativity scene. The present invention further comprises a second pole located near the nativity set. Glittering strings stretched from the lighted star to the second pole together with the focused illumination from the spotlight provides the RAYS that emulates the rays of the star shined on the manger and led the three Kings to the newborn Jesus.
