Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of tent top mount technology and relates to a tent top mount structure. Background Technology

[0002] Modern tents typically have multiple hooks on the inner top wall. Lights are hung on the tent to illuminate the interior. However, the lights need to have corresponding parts on the hooks to be hung. Furthermore, tents are generally quite tall when set up, making it difficult for people to hang lights on the inner top wall using only their own height. This makes the tent difficult to use in poor lighting conditions.

[0003] Currently, existing lighting fixtures and power supplies are typically connected directly to the tent roof. These fixtures usually use LED light panels, and are typically connected to the power supply via wires. However, during installation, the fixtures may wobble, requiring the wires to be secured. This is often done by pressing the wires between the lampshade and the base, using bolts or clips. However, this connection can lead to wobble or dimensional inaccuracies, resulting in insecure wire fixation. Alternatively, the wires may be clamped too tightly, subjecting them to constant pressure during installation. Furthermore, not only must the lampshade and base be aligned, but the wires must also be securely clamped, potentially damaging the wires connected between the lampshade and base. This negatively impacts the lifespan of the lighting fixtures and the stability of the power supply. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a tent top support structure. The technical problem to be solved by this invention is: how to solve the problem of poor power supply stability in existing tent top support structures.

[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A tent top support structure includes a lamp holder and a battery holder for power supply installation. The battery holder is detachably connected to the lamp holder. The lamp holder has a mounting bracket for placing the lamp. The lamp holder has a wire-passing hole communicating with the inner cavity of the battery holder. The mounting bracket has a downward-facing slot. The tent top support structure also includes a pressure plate connected to the lamp holder. The pressure plate is partially embedded in the slot and seals the opening of the slot. A wire-passing gap exists between the upper end of the pressure plate and the top wall of the slot, allowing wires to pass through and communicating with the wire-passing hole.

[0007] Working Principle: The power source within the battery holder can be a battery and / or a solar panel. A downward-facing slot is provided on the mounting frame, and a pressure plate is installed within the slot. The pressure plate seals the slot opening, and a wire passage gap exists between the pressure plate and the top wall of the slot. Therefore, the wires of the lamps placed on the mounting frame can pass through this gap and through the hole into the battery holder, connecting electrically to the power source. During tent top frame installation, the tent fabric is placed between the battery holder and the lamp holder, with the lamp holder largely located within the fabric. Therefore, during installation, the pressure plate presses the wires into the wire passage gap, preventing damage caused by direct contact between the wires and the inner shell of the lamp holder when the wires are led out directly from the slot. The combination of the pressure plate and the slot ensures the wires are firmly pressed between the pressure plate and the top wall of the slot, minimizing contact during installation and ensuring stability during installation and use. This results in a more stable power supply to the lamp holder, further enhancing the stability of the tent top frame structure.

[0008] In the above-described tent top structure, the mounting frame includes an annular mounting ring and multiple connecting plates disposed within the mounting ring and connected to the inner sidewall of the mounting ring. The slot is formed on the mounting ring, and the pressure plate has a mounting portion disposed on the connecting plate and a clamping portion embedded in the slot. The lower end face of the clamping portion is flush with the lower end face of the mounting ring.

[0009] By aligning the lower end face of the clamping part with the lower end face of the mounting ring, the lamp is mounted on the mounting bracket. This ensures that the overall design of the clamping part does not affect the mounting structure of the mounting ring, and also prevents any impact on the size of the wire clearance during lamp holder installation, further improving the stability of the wire routing.

[0010] In the above-mentioned tent top structure, the lamp holder includes a connecting cover connected to the battery holder and a lamp cover pressed on the connecting cover. The mounting bracket is set on the connecting cover. The clamping part is an arc-shaped plate. The inner side of the clamping part is connected to the mounting part. The side wall of the clamping part is close to the side wall of the slot. The lamp cover presses the pressure plate on the connecting plate.

[0011] The design of the connecting cover and the lampshade ensures that the overall lighting brightness of the lamp is between that of the lampshade and the connecting cover. The shape of the clamping part ensures that the clamping part and the mounting ring are close together except for the wire passage gap. Therefore, it does not affect the reflection of the lamp. This ensures stable wiring while minimizing the impact on the lighting of the lamp.

[0012] In the above-described tent top structure, the lamp holder has a guide plate inside the mounting ring. The guide plate is positioned opposite the slot, and the lower end of the guide plate is slightly higher than the top wall of the slot. There is a guide gap between the lower end of the guide plate and the mounting part, allowing the wire to pass through.

[0013] The guide plate allows the wires leading out from the wire passage gap to be guided through the gap into the wire passage hole of the lamp holder, thus making the wire routing more stable. Furthermore, the guide plate does not affect the installation of the pressure plate.

[0014] In the above-described tent top structure, the guide plate is positioned between two adjacent connecting plates, with both sides of the guide plate connected to the corresponding connecting plates, and the lower end surface of the guide plate is an arc surface.

[0015] This structure makes the guide plate more stable. The lower end of the guide plate is curved, which reduces the friction on the wires during routing and further improves the stability of the wire routing.

[0016] In the above-described tent top structure, the upper end of the mounting part protrudes to form a positioning post, and the connecting plate is provided with a positioning groove into which the positioning post can be inserted.

[0017] The combination of positioning pins and positioning slots enables circumferential positioning of the pressure plate, thus making the pressure plate setting more stable.

[0018] In the above-described tent top structure, the cable hole is located diagonally above the guide plate, and the cable hole is opened at the center of the connecting cover.

[0019] The placement of the wire guide hole allows the wires leading from the guide gap to quickly enter the wire guide hole, further improving the stability of the wire routing.

[0020] In the above-mentioned tent top structure, the upper end of the lamp holder has an annular sealing ring, and the outer side wall of the sealing ring is provided with several snap-fit ​​blocks along the circumference. The battery holder has an annular positioning plate, and the positioning plate is provided with several snap-fit ​​grooves with side openings along the circumference. The snap-fit ​​blocks slide into the snap-fit ​​grooves from the corresponding openings. The lamp holder has heat dissipation vents below the snap-fit ​​blocks, and the heat dissipation vents are connected to the inner cavity of the lamp holder.

[0021] The design of the snap-fit ​​blocks and slots allows the lamp holder to be fully connected to the battery holder simply by rotating the snap-fit ​​block until it slides into the corresponding slot. This makes the connection between the lamp holder and the battery holder more secure. The lamp holder also has heat dissipation vents below the snap-fit ​​blocks. This facilitates the molding of the snap-fit ​​blocks, reducing molding costs, and allows the heat from the lamp to be evenly transferred to the battery holder. Since the battery holder is located outside the tent, it has good heat dissipation, further enhancing the overall heat dissipation effect of the lamp.

[0022] In the above-mentioned tent top structure, the battery storage base includes a housing, the positioning plate is disposed on the housing, and the housing has forming holes that correspond one-to-one with the snap-fit ​​grooves, and the forming holes are connected to the corresponding snap-fit ​​grooves.

[0023] The molding holes facilitate the molding of the mounting slots on the positioning plate and allow the heat from the lamp holder's heat dissipation vents to be quickly transferred to the battery holder, further improving the lamp's heat dissipation effect.

[0024] In the above-mentioned tent top structure, the lamp holder is provided with a sealing ring located outside the sealing ring. When the lamp holder is connected to the battery holder, the sealing ring is in contact with the outer wall of the positioning plate.

[0025] The sealing ring design prevents rainwater and other impurities from entering the battery holder or lamp holder through the space between the sealing ring and the positioning plate. This ensures a good overall operating environment for the tent top structure, unaffects lighting, and improves the waterproof and dustproof performance of the tent top structure.

[0026] In the above-described tent top structure, the battery holder has an annular protective ring, which is located on the outside of the positioning plate. When the lamp holder is connected to the battery holder, the sealing ring is located inside the protective ring, and there is a clearance space between the sealing ring and the protective ring.

[0027] The protective ring serves as a primary barrier, blocking larger amounts of rainwater. The space provided by the protective ring ensures that it does not interfere with the installation of the lamp holder and the battery holder, further improving the installation efficiency of the tent roof structure.

[0028] Compared with existing technologies, this tent top mount structure has the following advantages: During installation, the pressure plate can press the wire into the wire passage gap, thus avoiding damage caused by the wire coming into contact with the inner shell of the lamp holder during installation when the wire is directly led out of the slot. Through the cooperation of the pressure plate and the slot, the wire is pressed tightly between the top wall of the pressure plate and the slot, so it is not easy to touch the wire during installation, ensuring the stability of the wire during installation and use, thereby making the power supply to the lamp holder more stable and further improving the stability of the tent top mount structure.

[0039] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the tent top structure includes a lamp holder 2 and a battery holder 1 for mounting a power source 11. The lamp holder 2 includes a connecting cover 22 connected to the battery holder 1 and a lamp cover 23 pressed on the connecting cover 22. The battery holder 1 and the lamp holder 2 are detachably connected. The connecting cover 22 is provided with a mounting bracket 24 for placing the lamp 21.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 1-9As shown, the lamp holder 2 has a wire hole 25 that communicates with the inner cavity of the battery holder 1, and the mounting bracket 24 has a slot 24a with the opening 24b facing downward. The tent top structure also includes a pressure plate 3 connected to the lamp holder 2. The pressure plate 3 is partially embedded in the slot 24a and blocks the opening 24b of the slot 24a. There is a wire passage gap 4 between the upper end of the pressure plate 3 and the top wall of the slot 24a, which allows the wire to pass through and communicates with the wire hole 25.

[0043] Working principle: The power source 11 in the battery holder 1 can be a battery and / or a solar panel. A slot 24a with an opening 24b facing downwards is provided on the mounting frame 24, and a pressure plate 3 is installed inside the slot 24a. The pressure plate 3 seals the opening 24b of the slot 24a, and there is a wire passage gap 4 between the pressure plate 3 and the top wall of the slot 24a. Therefore, the wires of the lamps 21 placed on the mounting frame 24 can pass through the wire passage gap 4 and the wire passage hole 25 to enter the battery holder 1 and connect electrically with the power source 11 inside the battery holder 1. During the installation of the tent top structure, the tent fabric is placed on top of the battery holder. Between the power base 1 and the lamp base 2, the lamp base 2 is generally located inside the tarpaulin. Therefore, during installation, the wire can be pressed onto the wire passage gap 4 by the pressure plate 3, thus avoiding damage caused by the wire coming into contact with the inner shell of the lamp base 2 when the wire is directly led out from the slot 24a. Through the cooperation of the pressure plate 3 and the slot 24a, the wire is pressed tightly between the pressure plate 3 and the top wall of the slot 24a, so it is not easy to touch the wire during installation, ensuring the stability of the wire during installation and use. This makes the power supply of the lamp base 2 more stable and further improves the stability of the tent top structure.

[0044] like Figure 1-7As shown, the mounting bracket 24 includes an annular mounting ring 24c and multiple connecting plates 24d disposed within the mounting ring 24c and connected to the inner sidewall of the mounting ring 24c. A connecting post 24e is located in the middle of the mounting bracket 24. One end of each connecting plate 24d is connected to the connecting post 24e. A wire hole 25 is formed on the connecting post 24e. Multiple support bars 24c1 are provided on the outer sidewall of the mounting ring 24c. The lamp 21 is an annular lamp plate, which is fitted onto the mounting ring 24c and abuts against the support bars 24c1. A slot 24a is formed on the mounting ring 24c. The pressure plate 3 has a mounting part 31 disposed on the connecting plate 24d and a clamping part 32 embedded in the slot 24a. The upper end of the mounting part 31 protrudes to form a positioning post 31a. A positioning groove 24d1 is formed on the connecting plate 24d for the positioning post 31a to be inserted. The clamping part... The lower end face of 32 is flush with the lower end face of the mounting ring 24c. The clamping part 32 is an arc-shaped plate. The inner side of the clamping part 32 is connected to the mounting part 31. The side wall of the clamping part 32 is close to the side wall of the slot 24a. The lamp cover 23 presses the pressure plate 3 onto the connecting plate 24d. The lamp holder 2 has a guide plate 26 inside the mounting ring 24c. The guide plate 26 is directly opposite the slot 24a, and the lower end face of the guide plate 26 is slightly higher than the top wall of the slot 24a. There is a guide gap 27 between the lower end of the guide plate 26 and the mounting part 31 for the wire to pass through. The guide plate 26 is set between two adjacent connecting plates 24d. The two sides of the guide plate 26 are connected to the corresponding connecting plates 24d respectively. The lower end face of the guide plate 26 is an arc surface. The wire hole 25 is located diagonally above the guide plate 26. The wire hole 25 is opened at the center of the connecting cover 22.

[0045] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the upper end of the lamp holder 2 has an annular sealing ring 28. Several snap-fit ​​blocks 28a are arranged circumferentially on the outer wall of the sealing ring 28. The battery holder 1 has an annular positioning plate 12. Several snap-fit ​​grooves 12a with side openings are opened circumferentially on the positioning plate 12. The snap-fit ​​blocks 28a slide into the snap-fit ​​grooves 12a from their respective openings. The lamp holder 2 has heat dissipation vents 29 below each snap-fit ​​block 28a. The heat dissipation vents 29 communicate with the inner cavity of the lamp holder 2. The battery holder 1 includes a housing 13, and the positioning plate 12 is mounted on the housing 13. The lamp holder 2 has a forming hole 13a that corresponds to the snap-fit ​​groove 12a and is connected to the corresponding snap-fit ​​groove 12a. The lamp holder 2 has a sealing ring 210 located outside the sealing snap ring 28. When the lamp holder 2 is connected to the battery holder 1, the sealing ring 210 fits against the outer wall of the positioning plate 12. The battery holder 1 has a ring-shaped protective ring 14. The protective ring 14 is located outside the positioning plate 12. When the lamp holder 2 is connected to the battery holder 1, the sealing ring 210 is located inside the protective ring 14. There is a clearance space 5 between the sealing ring 210 and the protective ring 14.
