DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0027] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and through specific embodiments.

[0028] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, an ambient light is disclosed, which includes a bottom case 100 and a top case 200 that cooperate with each other. A light-transmitting strip 300 is provided at the connection of the outer sides of the bottom case 100 and the top case 200; a first limiting block 110 and a second limiting block 120 are provided on one side of the bottom case 100 close to the light-transmitting strip 300. A lamp bracket 400 is snap-fitted at the first limiting block 110 and the second limiting block 120. The lamp bracket 400 extends along the length direction of the light-transmitting strip 300. An installation groove 410 is formed at the top of the lamp bracket 400. A lamp tube 500 is installed at the installation groove 410. A light-transmitting hole 420 is formed at the bottom of the lamp bracket 400. The light-transmitting hole 420 communicates with the installation groove 410. The light-transmitting hole 420 extends along the length direction of the lamp bracket 400. The light generated by the lamp tube 500 is irradiated outward through the light-transmitting hole 420 and the light-transmitting strip 300.

[0029] The above-mentioned ambient light has a novel structure. The lamp bracket 400 is snap-fitted on the first limiting block 110 and the second limiting block 120 of the bottom case 100. The top case 200 and the bottom case 100 are fixed by screws. The top case 200 in the installation fit can further press the lamp bracket 400, making the structural connection more stable; and the lamp bracket 400 is used to install the lamp tube 500. The light is irradiated through the light-transmitting hole 420 and the light-transmitting strip 430, which can make the light more concentrated and ensure a certain light intensity; it also means that the light diffusion is limited, effectively preventing the irradiated light from being too strong and facilitating use; the overall structure is convenient for assembly, which can effectively improve production efficiency and reduce production costs.

[0030] Further, a reflective baffle 600 is provided above the lamp tube 500. A plurality of convex blocks 610 are fixedly provided on the bottom surface of the reflective baffle 600. The plurality of convex blocks 610 are linearly arrayed along the length direction of the reflective baffle 600. A convex strip 620 is fixedly provided on the top surface of the reflective baffle 600. The convex strip 620 extends along the length direction of the reflective baffle 600; the reflective baffle 600 is adapted to the shape of the installation groove 410. The top case 200 is fixedly provided with a plurality of pressing pieces 210 corresponding to the installation groove 410. When the top case 200 is installed on the bottom case 100, the pressing pieces 210 extend into the installation groove 410. The pressing pieces 210 abut against the convex strip 620 to form a limitation. The convex blocks 610 abut against the lamp tube 500. A first reflective coating 630 is coated on one side of the reflective baffle 600 close to the lamp tube 500; the setting of the reflective baffle 600 can further limit the light diffusion, making the light refract uniformly in the direction of the lamp tube 500 and downward, reducing unnecessary light diffusion, making the light better concentrated, and ensuring a certain light intensity.

[0031] Further, both sides of the reflective baffle 600 are bent downward to form an arc concave structure.

[0032] Further, the groove width of the installation groove 410 is greater than the diameter of the lamp tube 500. Reflective grooves 470 are formed on two opposite groove walls of the installation groove 410. The reflective grooves 470 include inclined surfaces that refract downward, and a second reflective coating 480 is coated on the inclined surfaces. The lamp bracket 400 is made of black thermoplastic. The black thermoplastic is formed by combining polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS), combining the excellent characteristics of the two materials, the formability of the ABS material and the mechanical properties, impact strength, temperature resistance, and ultraviolet resistance of PC. The lamp bracket 400 is a black structure and does not reflect light, restricting the light to be refracted only through the first reflective coating 630 and the second reflective coating 480, so that the light can be refracted better towards the bottom of the installation groove 410, towards the light-transmitting holes 420 and the light-transmitting strips 300.

[0033] Further, a plurality of connection columns 130 for fixing screws are installed on the bottom shell 100. The top shell 200 is provided with a plurality of through holes 210 corresponding to the connection columns 130, and the top shell 200 and the bottom shell 100 are reinforced by screws.

[0034] Further, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 140 are fixedly arranged on the outer wall of each connection column 130, and the bottom of the reinforcing ribs 140 is fixedly connected to the bottom shell 100. This structural design can reinforce the connection columns 130 and prevent the connection columns 130 from breaking or being damaged.

[0035] Further, a first card slot 310 and a second card slot 320 are respectively formed on the inner sides of both ends of the light-transmitting strip 300. The lamp bracket 400 is fixedly provided with a first convex block 430 corresponding to the first card slot 310. The first convex block 430 is adapted to the shape of the first card slot 310. A second convex block 440 is fixedly provided corresponding to the second card slot 320. The second convex block 440 is adapted to the shape of the second card slot 320. The light-transmitting strip 300 is installed on the first convex block 430 and the second convex block 440 of the lamp bracket 400 through the first card slot 310 and the second card slot 320. This structural design can enable the light-transmitting strip 300 to be better clamped on the lamp bracket 400, facilitating disassembly and assembly and reducing the production difficulty.

[0036] Further, the light-transmitting strip 300 is made of transparent PC. A PVD light-transmitting coating is coated on the outer wall of the light-transmitting strip 300. This structural design can maintain sufficient light transmittance so that the light irradiation is not too strong.

[0037] Further, the first limiting block 110 has a plate-like structure, the second limiting block 120 is composed of two plate bodies that cross each other in a cross shape, a first limiting hole 450 corresponding to the first limiting block 110 is formed in the lamp bracket 400, the first limiting hole 450 is adapted to the shape of the first limiting block 110, a second limiting hole 460 corresponding to the second limiting block 120 is formed in the lamp bracket 400, the second limiting block 120 is adapted to the shape of the second limiting hole 460, and the lamp bracket 400 is mounted on the first limiting block 110 and the second limiting hole 120 on the bottom case 100 through the first limiting hole 450 and the second limiting hole 460.

[0038] The present invention is described by way of preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes or equivalent substitutions can be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and other embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
