Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1106917A2] A reversible fixing device for a lighting apparatus to be encased in a support panel such as a false ceiling, comprising: a frame (1) fit to be encased within a hole of the panel, defining an opening (2) for housing the apparatus and comprising a peripheral lip (4) extending outwards, for abutting against the outer face of the panel; sliders (8) placed on the outside of the frame (1), axially slidable between a fixing position, adjacent to said lip (4), and a fitting-up position; means (11, 13) for operating the sliders (8) from the fitting-up position to the fixing position; first elastic means (16) cooperating between the sliders (8) and the lip (4) of the frame (1), for hindering the sliding of the sliders (8) towards said fixing position and radially deformable owing to such sliding, whereby, when said frame (1) is encased said first elastic means (16) force the lip (4) against the panel; and stop means (17, 18) associated to the frame (1), fit for engagement with the sliders (8) in order to stop them in the fixing position. <IMAGE>
