Abstract (en)

An adjustable support for lighting sources, for example LED spotlights (L), includes a mounting element (12) for mounting on a surface (S) and a support element (14) to carry a light radiation source (L) which can be oriented with respect to the mounting element (12). Provision is made of a mechanism (16) for controlling the orientation movement of the support element (14), the mechanism including a first toothed sector (180a) and a second toothed sector (180b) arranged side by side, and a toothed actuator (200) movable between an engagement position, in which the actuator (200) counters the orientation movement of the support element (14), and a disengagement position, in which it is possible to orient the support element (14) and thereby orient the direction of the light radiation. A rotary damper (240) meshes with the second toothed sector (180b) for braking the orientation movement of the support element (14) with respect to the mounting element (12).
