[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 4 shows a conventional under-the-shelf lighting apparatus (first conventional example). This under-the-shelf lighting apparatus is composed of brackets 1 arranged substantially in parallel at predetermined intervals in the lateral direction. It is attached to the lower surface side of the shelf board 2 disposed on the upper side, and includes a lighting device unit 3 and a lamp unit 4 in which a long lamp is accommodated.

The lighting device section 3 is a long box-shaped body 3b in which a lighting device 3a for lighting a lamp is housed, and has a substantially L-shaped projecting side surface in the long direction. A mounting member 5 having a character shape is provided.
Is mounted on the bracket 1 so as to be mounted on the bracket 1, and is attached to the front lower surface of the shelf 2. Further, the lamp body part 4 is configured such that a reflecting plate 4a having a substantially L-shaped cross section from the upper end is integrally provided on a side surface on the front side of the lighting device part 3, and is provided on one lower surface side. It has a long opening, and the side wall of the lighting device section 3 and the reflection plate 4 inside the opening.
Sockets electrically connected to the lighting device section 3 are provided near both ends in a portion substantially surrounded by "a" so that a long fluorescent lamp is accommodated.

FIG. 5 shows another conventional under-the-shelf lighting apparatus (second conventional example). The difference from the first conventional example is that the lamp body 4 is a box-shaped body of the lighting device 3. The lighting device 3a is provided with a reflecting plate 4a provided below the lighting device 3b. The lighting device 3a accommodated in the lighting device unit 3 is located on the upper surface side of the lamp. The configuration is the same as in the conventional example.

FIG. 6 shows another conventional under-the-shelf lighting apparatus (third conventional example). The difference from the first conventional example is that the lamp body 4 has a substantially U-shaped cross section. It is formed in a box shape that opens downward and covers both ends of the long reflector 4a that
A lighting device 3 is provided by attaching mounting members 5 to both ends thereof, and a lighting device unit 3 is attached to one end of the lamp unit 4 so as to abut substantially vertically, and a box-like shape arranged along the bracket 1. It is a body 3b, and the attachment member 5 is provided so as to extend also on the side wall thereof, and the other configuration is the same as that of the first conventional example.

FIG. 7 shows another conventional under-the-shelf lighting apparatus (fourth conventional example). The difference from the third conventional example is that the lighting device 3 has the same length as the lamp body 4.
