The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0027] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a focusing aquarium light includes a housing assembly 1, a light source 2, a lens assembly 32 3, and a bracket assembly 4. The housing assembly 1 includes a base 5 and a focusing assembly 6, which is detachably connected to the base 5. The light source 2 and the lens assembly 32 3 are disposed between the focusing assembly 6 and the housing assembly 1. The focusing assembly 6 is used to adjust the lens assembly 32 3 to move closer to or further away from the light source 2 along the optical output axis. The bracket assembly 4 is connected to the end of the base 5 away from the focusing assembly 6.
[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the focusing assembly 6 includes a focusing tube 61 and a connecting tube 62. The focusing tube 61 is sleeved between the base 5 and the connecting tube 62, and the focusing tube 61 forms a continuously enclosed light source cavity 10 between the base 5 and the connecting tube 62. The focusing tube 61 is rotatably connected to the base 5 and the connecting tube 62 with the light output axis as the center. The inner wall of the focusing tube 61 is provided with an internal thread 611 extending from one end to the other end. The lens 32 assembly 3 is threadedly connected to the focusing tube 61 through the internal thread 611. The focusing tube 61 is used to drive the lens 32 assembly 3 to move closer to or away from the light source 2 when it rotates.
[0030] In this embodiment, the lens 32 assembly 3 is adjusted directly away from or closer to the light source 2 via the focusing tube 61, eliminating the need for a complex intermediate focusing structure and achieving direct, reliable, and fast focusing.
[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lens assembly 32 includes a lens holder 31 and a lens 32 disposed in the light-transmitting hole of the lens holder 31;
[0032] The lens holder 31 includes a frame 311, which is annular. Multiple support blocks 312 are arranged circumferentially around the outer perimeter of the frame 311 with the axis of the frame 311 as the center. The ends of the multiple support blocks 312 away from the frame 311 are screwed to the internal thread 611 of the focusing cylinder 61.
[0033] The connecting cylinder 62 includes a connecting part 621. The end of the connecting part 621 near the focusing cylinder 61 is provided with a plurality of limiting parts 622 distributed circumferentially around the axis of the connecting part 621. The limiting parts 622 and the support block 312 are distributed alternately. The limiting parts 622 are located between the frame 311 and the focusing cylinder 61. The limiting parts 622 extend axially from the connecting part 621 to the base 5. The limiting parts 622 are threadedly connected to the end near the base 5.
[0034] In this embodiment, when focusing is required, the focusing cylinder 61 is manually held and rotated. During the rotation, the adjusting cylinder drives the support block 312 that is threadedly connected to the focusing cylinder 61. Under the action of the limiting part 622, the support block 312 cannot rotate with the focusing cylinder 61. However, due to the movement of the internal thread 611 towards or away from the light source 2, the lens 32 assembly 3 as a whole moves towards or away from the light source 2 along the optical axis to achieve the focusing effect.
[0035] The above structure directly sets the focusing mechanism between the focusing cylinder 61, the lens holder 31 and the connecting cylinder 62, without the need for additional focusing components, which simplifies the structure, reduces costs, improves assembly efficiency, and makes focusing convenient, quick and reliable.
[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, annular mounting grooves 20 are provided at the connection between the base 5 and the focusing cylinder 61, and at the connection between the connecting part 621 and the focusing cylinder 61.
[0037] In this embodiment, the above structure ensures the stability of each component and the whole while achieving detachability, and also makes the light source cavity 10 form a continuously closed structure on all four sides to ensure the light output effect.
[0038] In this embodiment, the design of the annular mounting groove 20 can improve the sealing and rotational reliability of the connection points between the focusing cylinder 61 and the base 5 and the connecting part 621.
[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the outer side of the focusing cylinder 61 is provided with a plurality of raised ribs 612 distributed circumferentially around the axis of the focusing cylinder 61, and the raised ribs 612 extend from one end of the focusing cylinder 61 to the other end.
[0040] In this embodiment, the above structure allows the heat transferred from the light source cavity 10 to the focusing tube 61 to be transferred to the air through the rib 612, which has a good heat dissipation effect. At the same time, the outer wall of the focusing tube 61 forms an uneven structure, which increases the friction when the hand contacts the focusing tube 61, making it easy and convenient to rotate the focusing tube 61 for focusing.
[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the support block 312 and the adjacent limiting part 622 are in a clearance fit; the frame 311 and the limiting part 622 are in a clearance fit.
[0042] In this embodiment, the above structure, when not focusing, restricts the support block 312 from rotating relative to the focusing cylinder 61 thread under external force, thereby improving product reliability and operational stability.
[0043] In this embodiment, the above structure effectively improves the dustproof effect of the light source cavity 10 by controlling the gap between the frame 311 and the limiting part 622 and the gap between the support block 312 and the adjacent limiting part 622.
[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the bracket assembly 4 includes a connecting rod 41 and a clamping part 42. The connecting rod 41 is a hollow structure and is threadedly connected to the base 5. A power cord 30 is provided inside the connecting rod 41. One end of the power cord 30 passes through the base 5 and is connected to the light source 2. The other end passes through the connecting rod 41 and the clamping part 42 and is sequentially provided with a control module 40 and a plug 50.
[0045] In this embodiment, the above structure, through the connecting rod 41, allows the aquarium light to be installed at a certain height on the aquarium, thus facilitating the display needs of different lighting focal lengths; in addition, the connecting rod 41 and the base 5 are connected by a detachable threaded connection, which makes it easy for the power cord 30 to be passed through the connecting rod 41 and the base 5 in sequence during assembly, thereby optimizing the structure and improving processing efficiency.
[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the clamping part 42 is provided with a clamping opening 421 that extends from one side of the clamping part 42 to the other side. The clamping part 42 is provided with two or more locking bolts 7. The locking bolts 7 extend from the outside of the clamping part 42 through the threaded hole of the clamping part 42 and into the clamping opening 421.
[0047] In this embodiment, the clamping part 42 is used to connect with the fish tank. By adjusting the tightness of the locking bolt 7, the width of the clamping opening 421 is changed, so as to achieve convenient and quick connection and fixation with the fish tank.
[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, heat dissipation fins 51 are provided around the outer perimeter of the base 5.
[0049] In this embodiment, the above structure improves the heat dissipation effect of the light source 2.
[0050] Furthermore, the light-transmitting hole of the connecting part 621 gradually increases in size in the direction away from the light source 2.
[0051] In this embodiment, the above structure improves the light emission angle of the aquarium light.
[0052] For those skilled in the art, various other corresponding changes and modifications can be made based on the technical solutions and concepts described above, and all such changes and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the claims of this invention.
