Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of neon light strip technology, specifically a neon light strip that can be bent in multiple directions. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of decorative lighting and landscape lighting, neon light strips are widely used in architectural outlines, advertising signage, and interior atmosphere creation due to their rich colors and uniform light emission. However, traditional neon light strips are limited by their internal structural design, resulting in significant application limitations: their core carrier is a straight FPC (flexible printed circuit board), and the circuit layout and substrate characteristics determine that they can only support bending in a single direction (such as simple forward bending or lateral bending), and the folding angle is strictly limited to within 90°.

[0003] This structural defect makes traditional neon light strips extremely unsuitable for complex curved surfaces, multi-angle shapes, or scenarios requiring three-dimensional bending. Forcibly twisting in multiple directions, folding at large angles, or creating three-dimensional shapes can easily cause FPC circuit breakage, leading to partial or overall failure of the light strip. At the same time, excessive bending can cause the light source (such as LED beads) to shift or fall off, disrupting the uniformity of light emission and severely affecting the lighting effect. In addition, the limitation of a single bending direction greatly restricts design flexibility, making it impossible to meet the diverse and personalized styling needs of modern decoration. It is difficult to promote its application in scenarios such as curved building facades and irregular art installations. Therefore, we have proposed a neon light strip that can be bent in multiple directions. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a neon light strip that can be bent in multiple directions, thus solving the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A multi-directionally bendable neon light strip includes: a segmented FPC rigid board, a control module, neon lights, and reactive capacitors. The control module is fixedly connected to the top surface of the segmented FPC rigid board, and the neon lights are fixedly connected to the top surface of the segmented FPC rigid board in a linear and equidistant manner. Reactive capacitors are fixedly connected to the top surface of the segmented FPC rigid board in a linear and equidistant manner. A high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate is provided on the bottom surface of the segmented FPC rigid board, and the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate is used for multi-directional bending connection between multiple segments of the segmented FPC rigid board.

[0007] Preferably, a transparent protective cover is fixedly connected to the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board, and the transparent protective cover is used to provide external protection for the neon light strip.

[0008] Preferably, a welding protrusion is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board. The welding protrusion is distributed in a rectangular shape at equal intervals on the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board. The welding protrusion is used for welding and fixing with the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate.

[0009] Preferably, the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board is provided with a neon light mounting slot, the neon light mounting slots are linearly and equidistantly distributed on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board, and a reactive capacitor is fixedly connected to the inner side of the neon light mounting slot.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0013] A multi-directionally bendable neon light strip is provided, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This utility model effectively overcomes the limitations of traditional light strip bending through a segmented structure and a high-toughness flexible connection design, possessing significant practical value. Using a multi-segment FPC segmented rigid board as the core load-bearing unit, the linearly equidistantly distributed neon lights and reactive capacitors on the top surface ensure uniform light emission, while the control module precisely regulates the lighting effect. Crucially, the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board is fixed to the welding grooves of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate via welding protrusions. The high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate allows for multi-directional bending between the segments, with bending angles exceeding 90° and even surpassing 180°, avoiding the problems of circuit breakage and light source detachment caused by the forced bending of traditional straight light strips. Simultaneously, the transparent protective cover on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board provides external protection for the internal components. The overall structure not only meets the diverse installation needs of complex curved surfaces and three-dimensional shapes, improving design flexibility, but also ensures the light emission stability and lifespan of the light strip after bending. It is suitable for various decorative lighting scenarios such as building outlines, advertising signs, and indoor atmosphere creation. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0022] A multi-directionally bendable neon light strip includes: an FPC segmented rigid board 1, a control module 5, neon lights 6, and reactive capacitors 7. The control module 5 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, and the neon lights 6 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1. The neon lights 6 are linearly and equidistantly distributed on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1. The reactive capacitors 7 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, and the reactive capacitors 7 are linearly and equidistantly distributed on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1. A high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2 is provided on the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, and the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2 is used for multi-directional bending connection between multiple segments of the FPC segmented rigid board 1.

[0023] Furthermore, a transparent protective cover 4 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, which is used to provide external protection for the neon light strip.

[0024] Furthermore, welding protrusions 10 are fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1. The welding protrusions 10 are distributed in a rectangular and equidistant manner on the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1.

[0025] Furthermore, a neon light mounting slot 8 is provided on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1. The neon light mounting slots 8 are linearly and equidistantly distributed on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, and a reactive capacitor 7 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the neon light mounting slot 8.

The bottom surface of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2 is fixedly connected with connecting weld points 3, which are symmetrically and equidistantly distributed on the bottom surface of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2.

[0027] Furthermore, welding protrusions 10 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the welding groove 9. The FPC segmented rigid plate 1 and the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2 are welded and fixed together. By replacing the original FPC straight plate with the FPC segmented rigid plate 1 and cooperating with the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2, the neon light strip can be bent in multiple directions with a bending angle of more than 180°. At the same time, the FPC segmented rigid plate 1 and the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2 are welded between the welding protrusions 10 and the welding groove 9 in the middle part of the bottom of the FPC segmented rigid plate 1, which can greatly increase the bending angle and toughness.

[0028] Structural Description:

[0029] FPC segmented rigid board 1: It adopts flexible printed circuit board material and segmented design. The top surface has linearly equidistant neon light mounting slots 8 for fixing neon lights 6 and reaction capacitors 7. The bottom surface has rectangularly equidistantly distributed welding bumps 10, which can be precisely connected with high-toughness FPC flexible connection board 2. It also has a certain rigidity to avoid damage to the internal circuit when bending, and provides a stable mounting base for various electronic components.

[0030] High-toughness FPC flexible connection board 2: The material is a high-toughness flexible printed circuit board. The top surface has symmetrical and equidistant welding grooves 9, which are welded and fixed to the welding protrusions 10 of the FPC segmented rigid board 1. The bottom surface has symmetrical and equidistant connecting solder points 3. Due to its high toughness, it can drive multiple segments of FPC segmented rigid board 1 to achieve multi-directional bending, which is the key structure for the multi-directional bending function of the light strip.

[0031] Connection solder point 3: Metal conductive solder point, symmetrically and equidistantly fixed to the bottom surface of the high-toughness FPC flexible connection plate 2, is used for electrical connection between the light strip and external power supply and other light strip units to ensure stable current transmission and ensure normal light emission of the light strip as a whole;

[0032] Transparent protective cover 4: Fixed to the top surface of FPC segmented rigid board 1, completely covering the control module 5, neon light 6 and reactive capacitor 7 on the top surface, which can isolate dust, moisture and slight impact, provide external protection for internal components, and at the same time do not affect the light transmission of neon light 6.

[0033] Control module 5: Fixed to the top surface of FPC segmented rigid board 1, with built-in control chip and circuit, can control the lighting effects of neon lights 6 such as brightness, color switching, and flashing frequency through preset programs or external signals. It is the control core of the light strip lighting function.

[0034] Neon light 6: Light-emitting element, linearly and equidistantly fixed to the top part of the FPC segmented rigid board 1 and embedded in the neon light mounting groove 8. Powered and regulated by the control module 5, it can emit light of different colors. The linear distribution ensures that the light strip emits light evenly. It is the core component for the light strip lighting and decoration function.

[0035] Reactive capacitor 7: An electronic component, linearly and equidistantly fixed in the neon light mounting slot 8 on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, electrically connected to the neon light 6 and the control module 5, which can stabilize the circuit voltage, filter, avoid voltage fluctuations from damaging the neon light 6, and ensure the light strip's luminous stability and service life.

[0036] Neon light mounting slot 8: Linearly and equidistantly opened on the top surface of FPC segmented rigid board 1, the size of which matches the neon light 6 and reaction capacitor 7, used to accommodate and fix the two, to prevent the components from shifting or falling off during the bending of the light strip or during use, and at the same time to provide a certain degree of protection for the components.

[0037] Welding groove 9: Symmetrically and equidistantly opened on the top surface of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2, the size of which matches the welding protrusion 10 of the FPC segmented rigid plate 1. The inner side can be welded and fixed with the welding protrusion 10, which not only ensures the firmness of the connection between the two, but also reserves flexible space for bending of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2.

[0038] Welding protrusions 10: rectangular and equidistant fixed to the center of the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, corresponding to the welding grooves 9 of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2. The mechanical fixation and electrical connection between the two are achieved through welding, ensuring the current conduction between the multiple segments of the FPC segmented rigid board 1, while not affecting the bending function.

[0039] Working Principle: When this utility model is used, the FPC segmented rigid board 1 serves as the core load-bearing unit. The linearly equidistant neon light mounting slots 8 on its top surface provide fixed mounting positions for the reactive capacitor 7. The linear equidistant layout ensures uniform brightness and no difference in light and dark when the neon lights 6 are emitting light. The control module 5 is fixed to the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1 and can control the on / off state, color switching, and flashing frequency of the neon lights 6 through its built-in circuitry, achieving diverse lighting effects to meet the lighting needs of different scenarios. Furthermore, the connection and bending functions of the multi-segment FPC segmented rigid board 1 are achieved through the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2. The welding protrusions 10 in the middle of the bottom surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1 precisely align and weld with the welding grooves 9 on the top surface of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting plate 2. The rectangularly equidistantly distributed welding protrusions 10 cooperate with the symmetrically equidistant welding grooves 9 to ensure both connection and bending. The high-toughness FPC flexible connecting board 2 provides a stable connection while allowing sufficient flexibility for bending. When the light strip needs to adapt to complex curved surfaces or three-dimensional shapes, the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting board 2 can drive multiple segments of FPC segmented rigid board 1 to achieve multi-directional bending, breaking through the traditional 90° limit of light strips. Moreover, because the FPC segmented rigid board 1 itself has a certain rigidity, it can avoid excessive stretching or compression of internal circuits during bending, preventing circuit breakage and neon light 6 displacement and detachment, ensuring normal light emission after bending. At the same time, the transparent protective cover 4 on the top surface of the FPC segmented rigid board 1 can isolate external dust, moisture and minor collisions during light strip operation, protecting the internal control module 5, neon light 6 and reaction capacitor 7, and extending the service life of components. The connection solder joints 3 on the bottom surface of the high-toughness FPC flexible connecting board 2 can facilitate the connection of the light strip with external power supplies or other light strip units, ensuring stable power supply.
