[0001] The present invention relates to a formwork and to a method for forming a lamp incorporated
in a plasterboard wall or in a wall made of fiber-cement sheets or in a wall made
of materials for on-site construction to be clad, for example made of hollow bricks
or concrete.
[0002] In a previous patent application
EP3374694A1 by the same applicant, an assembly and a method for forming a lamp incorporated in
a masonry wall, in particular in a reinforced concrete wall, were described.
[0003] An assembly and a method for forming a substantially parallelepiped-shaped single-piece
panel in which a lamp body is completely embedded and which can be inserted and fixed
between bricks, blocks or panels that form the wall or a cladding of the wall, in
particular the panels of external insulation have been described in another previous
patent application
EP3540308A1 by the same applicant.
[0004] Conversely, it has not yet been proposed how to form a lamp incorporated in a plasterboard
wall or in a wall made of fiber-cement sheets in order to obtain the same excellent
functional, structural and aesthetic effects achieved by means of the teachings described
in the patent applications cited.
[0005] US 2018/238534 A1 discloses a furnishing structure with a linear extension which is suitable for generating
a continuous light strip and which is adapted to be integrated within building backgrounds
of the most varied nature, and which is made of masonry work, plasterboard, wood,
etc.
WO 2011/151272 A1 relates to the use of a LED strip fitting or a kit of parts for finishing a wall,
a ceiling or a construction. The luminaire comprises a first integratable component
for building in a construction and a second component for cooperating with the first
integratable component, so as to provide indirect illumination.
EP 2 375 151 A2 discloses a partition wall with integrated lighting. The wall has a laminar carrier
body comprising a recess in which an integrated lamp is arranged, where the recess
is defined by a lamp profile.
US 2015/226401 A1 discloses a wall wash light fixture which includes a housing having a bottom plate
at least partially defining an opening; a light source disposed within the housing;
and a reflector disposed such that light emitted from the light source is received
by the reflector and reflected.
[0006] One object of the present invention is therefore to bridge such a gap by proposing
an assembly and a method that can allow for the installation of a lamp in a plasterboard
wall or in a wall made of fiber-cement sheets.
[0007] Another object of the invention is to propose an assembly and a method that can advantageously
also be used to install a lamp in a wall made of materials for on-site construction
to be clad, for example in hollow bricks or reinforced concrete.
[0008] Another object of the invention is to propose an assembly and a method that also
make it possible for a non-specialized operator, for example the same plasterboard
installer or bricklayer, to incorporate a lamp in a plasterboard wall or in a wall
made of fiber-cement sheets or in a wall made of materials for on-site construction
to be clad in a manner that is quick, safe and at the same time very precise.
[0009] Said objects are achieved by an assembly according to claim 1, by a method according
to claim 7 and by a method according to claim 8. The dependent claims describe preferred
embodiments of the invention.

[0011] In the following description, elements that the different embodiments have in common
or that are equivalent are indicated by the same reference numerals.
[0012] In addition, unless stated otherwise, features described with reference to one embodiment
can also be used in other embodiments.
[0013] In said drawings, 1 indicates, as a whole, an assembly for forming a lamp incorporated
in a plasterboard wall 2 or in a wall 3 made of fiber-cement sheets or in a wall 4
made of materials for on-site construction to be clad.
[0014] The assembly 1 comprises a lamp body 10 and a formwork 20.
[0015] The lamp body 10 houses a light source 12.
[0016] The formwork 20 defines a rebated front wall 22 suitable to be attached to the inner
side of a plasterboard panel 2' or a panel 3' made of fiber-cement sheets or cladding
4' of the wall 4 to be clad.
[0017] The formwork 20 also defines a light-emitting cavity 24 that forms a seat 26 at the
back for housing the lamp body 10 and a light-emitting opening 28 at the front in
the front wall 22.
[0018] The light-emitting opening 24 is delimited by a peripheral frame 30 that extends
perpendicularly from the front of the front wall 22 and such that the front edge 30'
of the peripheral frame 30 is flush with the outer side of the plasterboard panel
2' or the fiber-cement sheet 3' or of the cladding 4' of the wall, as shown in Fig.
6, 7 and 11.
[0019] The light-emitting cavity 24 is delimited at the bottom by an inclined surface 32
towards which the light generated by the light source 12 is projected and which ends
in the light-emitting opening 28.
[0020] In other words, in a preferred embodiment, the lamp body 10, when positioned in its
housing seat 26, is not only arranged in a withdrawn position with respect to the
light-emitting opening 28, but also in a raised position such that an observer stood
in front of the wall 2, 3, 4, is not blinded by the direct light of the light source
12 (Fig. 10).
[0021] The formwork 20 is also provided with retaining means 34 that cooperate with the
inclined surface 32 in order to hold a cladding sheet 5 of the inclined surface 32.
[0022] This cladding sheet 5 can be made from the same material as the wall (plasterboard,
fiber-cement, cladding), and can therefore be obtained and installed by the same plasterboard
installer or bricklayer, or from a different material. For example, the cladding sheet
5 can be made of anodized aluminum and can be supplied together with the formwork
20.
[0023] Fig. 9 shows a few examples of cladding sheet 5a, 5b, 5c that can not only differ
in terms of materials but also shape. For example, the cladding sheet 5b has a concave
upper side rather than a flat one.
[0024] In one embodiment, the formwork 20 is formed as one piece having an extruded profile
21. In this case, the assembly 1 can comprise two side caps 40 suitable to close the
open ends of the extruded profile 21 so as to form the lateral sides of the light-emitting
cavity 24.
[0025] In some embodiments, the formwork formed as an extruded profile 21 can have a longitudinal
extension that is much greater than its vertical dimension, or a plurality of formworks
can be brought together without side caps so as to form a continuous linear lamp.
In this case, the side caps 40 would not be necessary either.
[0026] It should be noted that, in one embodiment shown in Fig. 1, 3 and 5, the formwork
20 is provided with a wall 41 at the front for closing the light-emitting opening
28. This closing wall 41 can easily be moved by the peripheral frame 30 once the formwork
20 is placed on-site, for example on account of the reduced thickness of its edge
that connects to the peripheral frame 30. The closing wall 41 protects the light-emitting
cavity 24 during the steps of installing the formwork 20 and stiffens the structure
itself of the formwork 20. In particular, when the formwork 20 is placed on-site,
the closing wall 41 prevents the weight that can bear down thereon from tending to
squash the light-emitting cavity 24, which would thus impede the subsequent insertion
of the lamp body 10.
[0027] In one embodiment, the light source 12 comprises one or more LED light source cables
mounted on a printed circuit board 12'.
[0028] In one embodiment, the lamp body 10 comprises, in addition to the light source, electrical
and/or electronic circuits for controlling the light source. The lamp body 10 is also
intended for receiving a power supply 13 and an electrical connector for electrically
connecting to power supply and/or control cables.
[0029] The lamp body 10 may also comprise optical elements for controlling the light beam
generated by the light source 12.
[0030] In one embodiment, the lamp body 10 is also provided with heat dissipation means
for the heat generated by the light source.
[0031] In one embodiment, the lamp body 10 and the light-emitting cavity 24 are dimensioned
so as to allow the lamp body 10 to be inserted into the housing seat 26 through the
light-emitting opening 28 and the light-emitting cavity 24.
[0032] In one embodiment, the lamp body 10 is insertable into its housing seat 26 by a snap
fit. For example, the walls of the formwork 20 that delimit the housing seat 26 form
undercuts 26' that engage with corresponding resilient tabs 11 made in the lamp body
10.
[0033] In one embodiment, the extruded profile 21 forms, in the rear portion of the light-emitting
cavity 24, a longitudinal retaining wall 42 that extends from a rear wall 44, substantially
in parallel with the inclined surface 32, and has an upper side shaped suitable for
snap engaging with the lamp body 10 and an end tooth 44' that can interact with the
cladding sheet 5 of the inclined pane.
[0034] In one embodiment, the cladding sheet 5 of the inclined surface 32 is provided with
fastening means 5', for example a fastening tooth, which cooperate with the retaining
means 34 and also comprise a hole, for example, in which the fastening tooth can engage
so that said cladding sheet is fastened to the inclined surface 32.
[0035] It should be noted that, in order to create, as far as possible, surface continuity
between the outer side of the panel 2, sheet 3 or cladding 4 and the cladding sheet
5 of the inclined surface 32, the cladding sheet 5 has a lower end that is counter-shaped
to the lower side of the peripheral frame 30. According to the invention, this lower
end is cut so as to form a horizontal support base that rests against the horizontal
lower side of the peripheral frame 30.
[0036] In one embodiment, a rear opening 46 is made in a rear wall of the formwork 20, which
delimits the housing seat 26 of the lamp body 10, suitable for the passage of the
end of a corrugated tube 50 that can carry the electrical power supply/control cables
for the lamp body 10.
[0037] The installation of the assembly 1 in a plasterboard wall 2 or in a wall 3 made of
fiber-cement sheets is carried out as follows.
[0038] A window 2a; 3a is made in a plasterboard panel 2' or in a fiber-cement sheet 3',
which has dimensions that correspond to the light-emitting opening 28.
[0039] The electrical power supply/control cables of the lamp are brought in the proximity
of the region where the lamp is positioned.
[0040] The formwork 20 is fixed to the inside of the panel or sheet so as to pass the peripheral
frame 30 through the window 2a; 3a.
[0041] For example, the formwork 20 is fixed by means of screws and/or glue applied to the
front wall 22 of the formwork 20.
[0042] At this point, the panel or sheet is fixed to the bars 60 of the frame of the plasterboard
or fiber-cement wall.
[0043] It is therefore possible to proceed with positioning a cladding sheet 5 on the inclined
surface 32.
[0044] The electrical cables are connected to the lamp 10.
[0045] The lamp body 10 is fastened to its housing seat 26.
[0046] When the lamp is installed in a wall made of materials for on-site construction,
the method is carried out as follows.
[0047] The electrical power supply/control cables of the lamp are brought in the proximity
of the region where the lamp is positioned.
[0048] A recess 70 is made in the wall that is suitable to house the formwork 20 and the
electrical cables are therefore pulled inside this recess 70.
[0049] The formwork 20 is inserted into the recess 70 so that the peripheral frame 30 protrudes
with respect to the outside of the wall that is not clad such that the front edge
30' of the peripheral frame 30 will be flush with the outer side of the cladding once
it has been glued to the wall.
[0050] After having locked the formwork 20 in position in the recess 70, a layer of cladding
adhesive 72 is applied to the wall to be clad and to the front wall 22 of the formwork
such that said walls are coplanar.
[0051] At this point, the cladding can be applied to the wall and a cladding sheet 5 can
be positioned on the inclined surface 32.
[0052] The electrical cables are therefore connected to the lamp body and the lamp body
is attached to its housing seat.
[0053] It should be noted that, in order to use said formwork 20 with panels, sheets or
cladding having different thicknesses, a spacer 80, for example in the form of an
extruded profile screwed to the front wall 22, can be arranged between the front wall
22 of the formwork and the inner side of the panel, sheet or cladding.
[0054] The scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims.
