Module for installation of a lighting unit in a recess

Abstract

The invention provides a module for installation of a lighting unit in a recess, wherein the module comprises: a first body comprising a first collar; a second body comprising a second collar; at least one flexible strut; wherein the first body and/or the second body is configured to hold said lighting unit; wherein the first body and the second body are rotatable relative to each other around a rotation axis, and are positionally fixed relative to each other in the axial direction of said rotation axis; wherein the at least one flexible strut comprises a respective first end and a respective second end, wherein said first end is fixed to a respective first connection point on the first collar and said second end is fixed to a respective second connection point on the second collar; wherein the at least one flexible strut comprises a strut length, wherein the strut length is at least a factor 1.2 longer than the shortest distance between the respective first connection point and the second collar; wherein the at least one flexible strut is configured to deform in a direction away from the rotational axis when a rotation of the first body and the second body relative to each other reduces the distance between said first connection point and said second connection point. The invention further provides a lighting device comprising said lighting unit and said module.
