[0030] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0031] See attached document Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 7 The present invention provides an LED tube protection frame, including a base 1, a support frame 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a connecting rod 3 fixedly connected to the front side of the top of the support frame 2, a positioning plate 4 fixedly connected to the front side of the two connecting rods 3, a support mechanism provided on the front side of the positioning plate 4, and a protection mechanism provided on both sides of the positioning plate 4.

[0032] The support mechanism includes multiple positioning frames 5, all of which are located on the front side of the positioning plate 4. Each positioning frame 5 has a connecting frame 6 embedded inside it. Each connecting frame 6 has a support plate 7 fixedly embedded inside it. Each support plate 7 has two connecting brackets 8 fixedly connected to its top. Each connecting bracket 8 has a wrapping airbag 9 embedded inside it. Each wrapping airbag 9 has an exhaust pipe 10 fixedly connected to its bottom. Each support plate 7 has an air pump 11 fixedly connected to its bottom. The exhaust pipe 10 is connected to the output end of the air pump 11. Each support plate 7 has a buffer groove 12 on its top. Each buffer groove 12 has two limiting rods 13 fixedly embedded inside it. Each limiting rod 13 has two limiting blocks 14 sleeved on its outer side. Each limiting block 14 has a support rod 15 connected to its top. Each support plate 7 has a tray 16 on its top. Each support rod 15 is connected to the bottom of the tray 16.

[0033] The protection mechanism includes multiple electric push rods 17, a fixed plate 18 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the positioning plate 4, multiple electric push rods 17 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the fixed plate 18 respectively, lifting plates 19 are fixedly connected to the outer ends of multiple electric push rods 17, toothed plates 20 are fixedly connected to the outer sides of multiple lifting plates 19, gears 21 are provided on the outer sides of multiple toothed plates 20, multiple gears 21 are meshed with multiple toothed plates 20 respectively, transmission rods 22 are fixedly connected inside multiple gears 21, movable plates 23 are fixedly sleeved on the outer sides of multiple transmission rods 22, and multiple movable plates 23 are located on both sides of multiple positioning frames 5 respectively;

[0034] In this embodiment, the user places multiple lamp tubes on top of multiple trays 16, with both ends of the lamp tubes extending into the two connecting brackets 8, so that both ends of the lamp tubes are positioned on top of the two support blocks 26. After placement, multiple air pumps 11 are activated to inflate multiple airbags 9, causing the airbags to clamp and fix the multiple lamps. After clamping, multiple electric push rods 17 are activated, retracting to move multiple lifting plates 19 and connecting plates 34, causing the two support plates 7 at the top and bottom to move downwards, allowing multiple fixing blocks 32 to embed into the corresponding... The multiple fixed frames 31 are placed inside to make the overall structure more stable. In addition, the movement of multiple lifting plates 19 drives the movement of multiple toothed plates 20, the movement of multiple toothed plates 20 drives the rotation of multiple gears 21, the rotation of multiple gears 21 drives the rotation of multiple transmission rods 22, and the rotation of multiple transmission rods 22 drives the rotation of multiple movable plates 23. When the top and bottom support plates 7 are moved to the maximum position, the multiple fixed blocks 32 are embedded inside the multiple fixed frames 31. At the same time, the multiple movable plates 23 also rotate to the corresponding positions. The multiple movable plates 23 shield the exposed lamp tubes at the top to prevent foreign objects from hitting or squeezing them and causing damage to the lamp tubes.

[0035] To achieve the purpose of shock absorption and buffering, the device adopts the following technical solution: multiple support plates 7 are fixedly connected to base plates 24 on both sides, multiple base plates 24 are fixedly connected to the top of multiple telescopic rods 25, multiple telescopic rods 25 are fixedly connected to the top of multiple telescopic rods 25, multiple limiting rods 13 are fitted with first damping springs 27 on the outside, multiple first damping springs 27 are fixedly connected between multiple limiting blocks 14, and multiple telescopic rods 25 are fitted with second damping springs 28 on the outside;

[0036] Under the action of the first damping spring 27 and the second damping spring 28, when the overall structure encounters shaking, multiple lamp tubes are subjected to damping and buffering treatment, making the lamp tubes more stable.

[0037] To achieve the limiting purpose, this device employs the following technical solution: Multiple connecting frames 6 are fixedly connected to slide rails 29 on both sides; multiple positioning frames 5 have slide grooves 30 on their inner sides, with the slide rails 29 matching the slide grooves 30; multiple support plates 7 and the bottom of the two top movable plates 23 are fixedly connected to multiple fixed frames 31; multiple connecting frames 8 have multiple fixed blocks 32 fixedly connected to the inner sides of the top and bottom movable plates 23, with the fixed blocks 32 matching the fixed frames 31 respectively; and multiple limiting blocks 14 are respectively connected to multiple support rods 15. Multiple support rods 15 are connected to multiple pallets 16 via hinges. Two fixed plates 18 are fixedly connected to both sides of the positioning plate 4. Multiple fixed plates 18 are respectively sleeved on the outside of multiple transmission rods 22. Multiple fixed plates 18 are respectively connected to multiple transmission rods 22 via rolling bearings. Positioning grooves 33 are opened on the top of multiple pallets 16. Multiple lifting grooves 34 are opened on the front side of the positioning plate 4. Multiple lifting plates 19 pass through the front side of the two lifting grooves 34 respectively. Multiple lifting plates 19 are respectively fixedly connected to the top and bottom positioning frames 5.

[0038] The design of slide rail 29 and slide groove 30 makes it easy for users to remove the connecting frame 6, making it convenient for users to install or remove the light tube.

[0039] The usage process of this invention is as follows: The user places multiple lamp tubes on top of multiple trays 16, with both ends of the lamp tubes extending into the two connecting frames 8, so that both ends of the lamp tubes are positioned on top of the two support blocks 26. After placement, multiple air pumps 11 are activated to inflate multiple airbags 9, clamping and fixing the multiple lamps. After clamping, multiple electric push rods 17 are activated, retracting to move multiple lifting plates 19 and connecting plates 34, causing the top and bottom support plates 7 to move downwards, embedding multiple fixing blocks 32 into the corresponding fixing frames 31, making the overall structure more stable. Additionally, the movement of the lifting plates 19 moves multiple toothed plates 20, causing multiple toothed plates 20 to move. The movement of plate 20 drives multiple gears 21 to rotate, which in turn drives multiple transmission rods 22 to rotate, which in turn drives multiple movable plates 23 to rotate. When the top and bottom support plates 7 move to their maximum positions, multiple fixed blocks 32 are embedded into multiple fixed frames 31, and at the same time, multiple movable plates 23 also rotate to their corresponding positions. The multiple movable plates 23 shield the exposed lamp tubes at the top, preventing damage to the lamp tubes caused by external objects hitting or squeezing them. Under the action of the first damping spring 27 and the second damping spring 28, the multiple lamp tubes are damped and buffered when the overall structure shakes, making the lamp tubes more stable. The design of the slide rail 29 and the slide groove 30 makes it easy for users to remove the connecting frame 6, making it easy for users to install or remove the lamp tubes.
