[0032] Grille lights are a type of lighting fixture widely used in offices with suspended ceilings. Their light source is typically a fluorescent tube. Existing grille lights are typically fixed to the ceiling via a mounting structure, connected to the mounting structure with screws or clips. However, these mounting methods have significant drawbacks. For example, screw connections can be difficult to align the screw holes, making installation inconvenient. Clip-on connections require prying open the clips when removing the grille light for maintenance, making disassembly inconvenient.

[0033] To address this technical problem, the present invention provides a grille lamp comprising a lamp body and a mounting cover. The lamp body is embedded in the mounting cover, and the two are connected by a snap-fit ​​assembly. To remove the lamp body, simply press the lamp body to release the connection with the mounting cover. To install the lamp body, simply insert the lamp body into the mounting cover and press the lamp body again to connect the two. This convenient operation and the ingenious structure of the snap-fit ​​assembly enable quick installation and removal of the lamp body and mounting cover.

[0034] It should be noted that the light source can be installed in the lamp body, and the mounting cover can be installed in scenes such as a suspended ceiling or a ceiling.

[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 6The grille lamp provided by one embodiment of the present invention includes a lamp body 100 and a mounting cover 200. Specifically, the outer wall of the lamp body 100 is provided with a card interface 110, and the mounting cover 200 is provided with a card assembly 210, which can be engaged with the card interface 110. The clamping assembly 210 includes a mounting plate 211, a clamping block 213, an elastic reset member 230 and a limiting rod 240. The mounting plate 211 is arranged on the mounting cover 200. The mounting cover 200 has a notch. The mounting plate 211 can be clamped on the notch of the mounting cover 200 to close the notch and is installed on the mounting cover 200 by screws. A first limiting groove 212 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 211 close to the inner cavity of the mounting cover 200. The clamping block 213 is slidably arranged in the first limiting groove 212. One end of the elastic reset member 230 is fixed on the mounting plate 211, and the other end is connected to the clamping block 213. The clamping block 213 is provided with a second limiting groove 214. One end of the limiting rod 240 is rotatably set on the mounting plate 211, and the other end is slidably set in the second limiting groove 214.

[0036] It should be noted that the limiting rod 240 can fix the clamping block 213 in the first position or the second position, and the elastic return member 230 can move the clamping block 213 from the first position to the second position. The second limiting groove 214 has a first stop point 217 and a second stop point 218. When the clamping block 213 is in the first position, one end of the limiting rod 240 is located at the first stop point 217, and the clamping block 213 is now engaged with the clamping interface 110 of the lamp body 100. When the clamping block 213 is in the second position, one end of the limiting rod 240 is located at the second stop point 218, and the clamping block 213 is now disengaged from the clamping interface 110 of the lamp body 100.

[0037] In addition, the second limiting groove 214 has a first slide 219 and a second slide 220, the first slide 219 and the second slide 220 are connected in the first position, the first stop point 217 is located on the first slide 219, and the second stop point 218 is located on the second slide 220. There is a height difference at the connection between the first slide 219 and the second slide 220 so that one end of the limiting rod 240 moves in a predetermined direction.

[0038] Specifically, the second limiting groove 214 is also provided with a limiting portion 221, which can limit the movement direction of the limiting rod 240, that is, when the limiting rod 240 is located at the first stop point 217, it pushes the clamping block 213 to move upward, and the end of the limiting rod 240 located in the second limiting groove 214 can only move from the first slide 219 to the second slide 220 under the limiting action of the limiting portion 221. The limiting rod 240 moves from the first stop point 217 to the second stop point 218, and the limiting rod 240 loses its limiting effect on the clamping block 213. The clamping block 213 moves downward under the action of the elastic reset member 230, and the clamping block 213 disengages from the card interface 110. When the limit rod 240 is located at the second stop point 218, the clamping block 213 is pushed to move downward. One end of the limit rod 240 located in the second limit groove 214 can only move along the second sliding path to the first slide 219 under the action of the height difference at the connection between the first slide 219 and the second slide 220. The limit rod 240 moves from the second stop point 218 to the first stop point 217. The limit rod 240 limits the clamping block 213, so that the clamping block 213 cannot return to its original position under the action of the elastic reset member 230. At this time, the clamping block 213 is clamped with the card interface 110, which plays the role of fixing the lamp body 100.

[0039] It should be noted that the mounting plate 211 is provided with a first limiting block 250, and the clamping block 213 is provided with a clamping portion. The first limiting block 250 can limit the clamping portion so that the clamping portion is clamped into the card interface 110. Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the clamping portion is provided with a first abutting portion 215 and a second abutting portion 216. When the clamping block 213 is in the first position, the first abutting portion 215 abuts the first limiting block 250, and the second abutting portion 216 abuts the lamp body 100. When the clamping block 213 is in the second position, the first abutting portion 215 is disengaged from the first limiting block 250, and the second abutting portion 216 is disengaged from the lamp body 100.

[0040] It should be noted that the clamping block 213 is also provided with a weight-reducing groove 260, which can reduce the weight of the clamping block 213, so that less force is required to push the clamping block 213. The mounting plate 211 is provided with a third limiting groove, which can limit the rotation of the limiting rod 240, that is, the third limiting groove can limit the rotation angle of the limiting rod 240.

[0041] In addition, the lamp body 100 is provided with a third abutting portion 400, which abuts against the clamping block 213 and can push the clamping block 213 to move along the first limiting groove 212. The lamp body 100 is provided with a second limiting block 300, which can align the third abutting portion 400 with the clamping block 213. Specifically, after the lamp body 100 is embedded in the mounting cover 200, the third abutting portion 400 abuts against the clamping block 213, and the second limiting block 300 limits the two ends of the mounting plate 211 so that the third abutting portion 400 can align with the clamping block 213. When the lamp body 100 is pressed, the abutting block pushes the clamping block 213 to move, and under the action of the second limiting block 300, the abutting block will not deviate from the clamping block 213.

[0042] It should be noted that the mounting cover 200 is provided with a first mounting portion 310, and the mounting cover 200 can be connected to the ceiling screws through the first mounting portion 310. The mounting cover 200 is also provided with a slot that can be engaged with a mounting structure such as a beam to fix the mounting cover 200 to the position of the ceiling or ceiling.

[0043] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the scope of the present invention.
