The protrusion P1 extends towards the direction close to the carrier plate 11, and the two recesses P2 are disposed on the two sides of the protrusion P1, respectively. The protrusion P1 has a top end and two sides. The top end of the protrusion P1 is a flat surface, and the two sides of the protrusion P1 are inclined surfaces. Figure 5 As can be seen, the top end of the protrusion P1 is a flat surface, and the two sides of the protrusion P1 are inclined surfaces.

[0045] Of course, the present embodiment is only used for illustration and not limit the scope of the present application, equivalent modifications or changes made to the panel light with the automatic locking structure according to the present embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present application.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 6 which is a perspective view of the carrier plate of the panel light with the automatic locking structure according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the carrier plate 11 has a wiring hole Cn and a plurality of fixing holes. The plurality of fixing holes are disposed around the wiring hole Cn.

[0047] The centers of the four first fixing holes G1 can be connected to form a first circle, and the centers of the four first fixing holes G1 can be connected to form a second circle. The diameter of the first circle is not equal to the diameter of the second circle. In the embodiment, the diameter of the first circle is greater than the diameter of the second circle. In another embodiment, the diameter of the first circle is smaller than the diameter of the second circle.

[0048] Of course, the embodiment is only used for illustration and not for limiting the scope of the present application, and equivalent modifications or changes made to the panel light with the automatic locking structure according to the embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present application.

[0049] The carrier plate 11 can be fixed to the ceiling by a plurality of fasteners (such as screws, nails, etc.). The panel light 1 further comprises a junction box, and the junction box can also be fixed to the carrier plate 11 by a plurality of fasteners and the plurality of fixing holes.

The first fixing hole G1 can be used to fix a larger size junction box, and the first fixing hole G1 can be used to fix a smaller size junction box. In the embodiment, the number of the plurality of fasteners is four. In another embodiment, the number of the plurality of fasteners can be changed according to actual needs.

[0050] Through the above-mentioned junction box matching structure, different sizes of junction boxes can be fixed to the carrier plate 11. In this way, the panel light 1 can install different sizes of junction boxes, so as to achieve higher practicability.

[0051] Of course, the embodiment is only used for illustration and not for limiting the scope of the present application, and equivalent modifications or changes made to the panel light with the automatic locking structure according to the embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present application.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 7 , which is a first schematic diagram of the installation procedure of the panel light with the automatic locking structure according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the user can first fix the carrier plate 11 to the ceiling CL by the plurality of fasteners, and align the junction hole Cn of the carrier plate 11 with the junction box. Then, the user can fix the junction box and the carrier plate 11 to each other. The frame body 12 can be hung on the carrier plate 11 by the two safety ropes 14. In this way, the frame body 12 can be in a suspended state, so that there is a distance between the frame body 12 and the carrier plate 11. At this time, the user can perform the wiring work alone. The above-mentioned temporary load-bearing structure design greatly simplifies the installation procedure, so as to effectively reduce the labor cost.

[0053] Of course, the present embodiment is only used for illustration and not limit the scope of the present application, equivalent modifications or changes made according to the panel light with automatic locking structure of the present embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present application.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 . Figure 8 The second schematic diagram of the installation procedure of the panel light with automatic locking structure of an embodiment of the present application. Figure 9 The third schematic diagram of the installation procedure of the panel light with automatic locking structure of an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 8 , when the wiring work is completed, the user can move the frame 12 towards the direction of the arrow Aw1, so that the frame 12 approaches the carrier plate 11 and the two safety ropes 14 are in a tension state. Then, the four fixing portions 111 enter the openings Pn of the L-shaped hook portions 1211 of the two first frame strips 121. At this time, the two safety ropes 14 are in a tension state.

[0055] Of course, the present embodiment is only used for illustration and not limit the scope of the present application, equivalent modifications or changes made according to the panel light with automatic locking structure of the present embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present application.

[0056] As shown in Figure 9 , the user can move the frame 12 in the horizontal direction (such as the direction of the arrow Aw2 in the figure), so that the frame 12 moves towards the direction of the carrier plate 11. Then, the L-shaped hook portions 1211 of the two first frame strips 121 of the frame 12 can be respectively embedded with the four fixing portions 111 of the carrier plate 11, so as to combine the frame 12 and the carrier plate 11.

[0057] As can be seen from the above, the panel light 1 also has a special automatic alignment structure. When the plurality of fixing portions 111 of the carrier plate 11 are respectively arranged in the openings Pn of the L-shaped hook portions 1211 of the two first frame strips 121, the two safety ropes 14 are in a tension state. Therefore, when the frame 12 is in a suspended state, the user can move the frame 12 so that the two safety ropes 14 are in a tension state, and the four fixing portions enter the openings Pn of the L-shaped hook portions 1211 of the two first frame strips, and then move the frame 12 in the horizontal direction, so that the frame 12 and the carrier plate 11 are embedded with each other. Therefore, the user can perform the assembly work alone, so as to further simplify the installation procedure, and thus the labor cost can be further reduced.

[0058] Of course, the present embodiment is only used for illustration and not limit the scope of the present application, equivalent modifications or changes made according to the panel light with automatic locking structure of the present embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present application.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 10, which is a fourth schematic diagram of an installation procedure of a panel light with an automatic locking structure according to an embodiment of the present invention, and please also refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 . As shown in the figure, when the frame 12 moves toward the carrier 11, the locking member Fx fixed on the L-shaped hook 1211 of the first frame bar 121 will first enter the recess P2 on one side of the wall 1112 of the corresponding fixing part 111 (this recess P2 is located on the side away from the baffle 113). Then, the locking member Fx will pass through the protrusion P1 and be squeezed by the protrusion P1. Thereafter, the locking member Fx will enter the recess P2 on the other side of the wall 1112 of the corresponding fixing part 111 (this recess P2 is located on the side close to the baffle 113). In this way, the protrusion P1 can provide a limiting function to prevent the locking member Fx from escaping from the recess P2. At the same time, the baffle 113 can also prevent the locking member Fx from escaping from the fixing part 111.

[0060] As can be seen from the above description, the automatic locking structure can provide an automatic locking function after the frame 12 and the carrier 11 are interlocked, thereby interlocking the two first frame bars 121 of the frame 12 and the multiple fixing portions 111 of the carrier 11 to prevent the frame 12 from separating from the carrier 11. This automatic locking structure can effectively enhance the structural stability of the panel light 1, thereby improving safety.

[0061] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the U-shaped mounting structure formed by the U-shaped fixing portion 111 and the inverted U-shaped first frame bar 121 allows the carrier board 11 to be combined with the frame 12 through a simple structural design, significantly reducing the cost of the panel light 1. Therefore, the panel light 1 can meet the needs of various applications.

[0062] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the panel light 1 features a U-shaped mounting structure without mounting holes. This allows the carrier board 11 to be assembled with the frame 12 through a simple structural design and concealed within the frame 12. This results in a more minimalist and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Thus, the panel light 1 can effectively beautify a building's interior space and provide users with an excellent user experience.

[0063] Of course, this embodiment is only used for illustration and does not limit the scope of the present invention. Equivalent modifications or changes made to the panel light with an automatic locking structure according to this embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present invention.

[0064] It is worth mentioning that some existing panel lights are installed on the ceiling through the installation of a ceiling frame. Then, the volume and weight of the above-mentioned installation structure are large, so the installation efficiency is low and the appearance of the panel light is affected. In addition, the cost of the above-mentioned installation structure is high, which greatly limits the application of the panel light. Some existing panel lights can be installed on the ceiling through an installation structure including a carrier plate and a hook. However, this installation structure can improve the appearance of the ceiling lamp, but the installation procedure is relatively complex, so the installation efficiency is still low. In addition, the safety of this installation structure is poor. In addition, some existing panel lights can also be installed on the ceiling through a metal frame with multiple mounting holes. However, this installation structure requires multiple people to perform the installation procedure, so it will increase the labor cost. In addition, this installation structure will also affect the appearance of the ceiling lamp. According to the embodiment of the present application, the panel light includes a carrier plate and a frame body. The carrier plate has two fixed parts arranged at both ends of the carrier plate, and each fixed part is U-shaped and includes an L-shaped support part and a wall connected to each other. The L-shaped support part is connected to the carrier plate. The wall has a protruding part and two recesses. The protruding part extends towards the direction close to the carrier plate, and the two recesses are arranged on both sides of the protruding part, respectively. The top end of the protruding part is a flat surface, and the two sides of the protruding part are inclined surfaces. The frame body has two first frame strips and two second frame strips spliced with each other. The two first frame strips are arranged opposite to each other and correspond to the two fixed parts. The two first frame strips are arranged opposite to each other, and each first frame strip has an L-shaped hook part, so that the cross section of the first frame strip is inverted U-shaped. The L-shaped hook part has an opening. The lamp body is arranged in the frame body. Each fixed part is embedded with the L-shaped hook part of the corresponding first frame strip through the opening of the L-shaped hook part. The automatic locking structure can provide an automatic locking function after the frame body and the carrier plate are embedded with each other, so as to lock the two first frame strips of the frame body and the multiple fixed parts of the carrier plate with each other, so as to prevent the frame body and the carrier plate from being separated. The automatic locking structure can effectively improve the structural stability of the panel light to improve the safety.

[0065] In addition, according to the embodiment of the present application, the panel light has a special U-shaped installation structure. Through the U-shaped fixed part and the inverted U-shaped first frame strip, the U-shaped installation structure can combine the carrier plate and the frame body through a simple structure design, so that the cost of the panel light is greatly reduced. Therefore, the panel light can meet the needs of different applications.

[0066] In addition, according to the embodiment of the present application, the panel light has a U-shaped installation structure without mounting holes, so that the carrier plate can be combined with the frame body through a simple structure design and hidden inside the frame body.

In this way, the panel light can effectively beautify the interior space of the building to provide users with excellent use experience.

[0067] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the panel light also includes two safety ropes. These two safety ropes correspond to the two first frame bars and also to the multiple fixing portions. The ends of each safety rope are respectively fixed to the corresponding first frame bar and fixing portion. The user can first secure the carrier plate to the ceiling and then suspend the frame using the two safety ropes, creating a suspended state with a certain distance between the frame and the carrier plate. At this point, the user can perform wiring work independently and, after completion, reassemble the frame and carrier plate. This temporary load-bearing structure design significantly simplifies the installation process, effectively reducing labor costs.

[0068] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the panel light also features a unique automatic alignment structure. When the multiple fixing portions of the carrier plate are respectively positioned within the openings of the L-shaped hooks of the two first frame bars, the two safety ropes are tensioned. Therefore, when the frame is suspended, the user can move the frame to tighten the two safety ropes, allowing the multiple fixing portions to enter the openings of the L-shaped hooks of the two first frame bars. The user can then move the frame horizontally to engage the frame and carrier plate. This allows the user to perform assembly independently, further simplifying the installation process and reducing labor costs. As can be seen from the above, the panel light with an automatic locking mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention can indeed achieve excellent technical results.

[0071] When the frame 12 is in the floating state, the user can move the frame 12. At this time, the two support plates 16 can provide automatic guiding and positioning functions, so that the four fixing portions enter the openings Pn of the L-shaped hook portions 1211 of the two first frame strips. When the four fixing portions of the carrier plate 11 are arranged in the openings Pn of the L-shaped hook portions 1211 of the two first frame strips 121, the two support plates 16 are parallel to the frame 12 and the carrier plate 11. Then, the user moves the frame 12 in the horizontal direction, so that the frame 12 and the carrier plate 11 are embedded with each other.

[0072] As described above, the two support plates 16 can be used as a temporary bearing structure, and can also provide automatic positioning and guiding functions. Through the structural design of the support plates 16, the panel lamp 1 can provide more accurate automatic guiding and positioning functions, so as to simplify the installation process and reduce the labor cost.

[0073] Of course, the embodiment is only used for illustration and does not limit the scope of the present application. Equivalent modifications or changes made to the panel lamp with the automatic locking structure according to the embodiment should still be included in the patent scope of the present application.

[0074] In summary, according to the embodiment of the present application, the panel lamp includes a carrier plate and a frame. The carrier plate has two fixing portions arranged at both ends of the carrier plate, and each fixing portion is U-shaped and includes an L-shaped support portion and a wall connected with each other. The L-shaped support portion is connected with the carrier plate. The wall has a protruding portion and two recesses. The protruding portion extends towards the direction close to the carrier plate, and the two recesses are arranged at both sides of the protruding portion, respectively. The top end of the protruding portion is a flat surface, and both sides of the protruding portion are inclined surfaces. The frame has two first frame strips and two second frame strips spliced with each other. The two first frame strips are arranged opposite to each other and correspond to the two fixing portions. Each first frame strip has an L-shaped hook portion, so that the cross section of the first frame strip is inverted U-shaped. The L-shaped hook portion has an opening. A lamp body is arranged in the frame. Each fixing portion is embedded with the L-shaped hook portion through the opening of the L-shaped hook portion of the corresponding first frame strip. The automatic locking structure can provide an automatic locking function after the frame and the carrier plate are embedded with each other, so as to lock the two first frame strips of the frame and the fixing portions of the carrier plate with each other, so as to prevent the frame and the carrier plate from being separated. The automatic locking structure can effectively improve the structural stability of the panel lamp, so as to improve the safety.

[0075] In addition, according to the embodiment of the present application, the panel lamp has a special U-shaped mounting structure.
