Device for connecting a luminaire (light) to two current-carrying bars (low-voltage busbar (conductor rail)

The device essentially consists of two cylinders of approximately equal size, the one from an insulating material, the other from metal, which are placed on different sides of the two bars (1) forming a busbar and are held under stress by in each case one endless helical spring (28) being placed under stress around the two projecting cylinder parts. The metal cylinder (20) consists of two cylinder parts (20a, 20b) which are connected to one another in a fixed manner in terms of rotation but are, however, electrically insulated from one another by means of a disc (27). The luminaire (2) is connected to the one cylinder part (20a) via a metal pipe (4) so that in this respect the electrical connection is also made. The electrical connection to the other cylinder part (20b) is made by means of an insulated electric line (4a) accommodated by the pipe. By rotating the metal cylinder (20) about its axis and by jointly displacing the two cylinders it is possible to change the luminaire setting.
