The description of the positional relationship between the components of the utility model (including but not limited to up, down, left, right, inside, outside, etc.) is a definition based on the position state of the components shown in the accompanying drawings. Its purpose is to facilitate the description and understanding of the mechanical structure of the components, and does not represent an absolute limitation on the scope of protection of the utility model; those skilled in the art can understand that when the placement direction of the components in the view changes, the description of the positional relationship may change, but the mechanical structure of the components has not changed essentially.

[0016] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The LED light strip 1 applicable to the utility model is a bare board LED light strip, including a circuit board 11 and LED lamp beads 12 mounted on the circuit board 11. The circuit board 11 is provided with at least a positive circuit and a negative circuit, and may also be provided with a signal circuit. The circuit board 11 is provided with connection terminals 13 protruding from the surface of the circuit board 11 and electrically connected to the positive and negative circuits and the signal circuit.

[0017] refer to Figure 1 A power connection assembly for an LED light strip includes a power connector 2, a pressure strip 3 and a fastening sleeve 4.

[0018] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4The power connector 2 includes a body 21, one end of which is connected to a plurality of power lines 22, and the other end is a light strip connector 20. The light strip connector 20 includes a bottom plate 23 that is integrally molded with the body 21, and a plurality of conductive strips 24 that are mounted on the body 21 and located above the bottom plate 23. A first card slot 25 is provided on the back of the bottom plate 23 near the body 21. The plurality of conductive strips 24 correspond to the wiring terminals 13 on the LED light strip circuit board 11, and are electrically connected to the plurality of power lines 21 respectively. The tail end of the conductive strip 24 faces the outer end of the bottom plate 23, and there is a gap between the conductive strip 24 and the bottom plate 23. A plug-in slot 26 is provided on the upper side of the body 21, and guide ribs 27 are provided on the left and right sides of the body 21. When the LED light strip 1 includes only one set of positive and negative power supply circuits, the light strip connector 20 is provided with only two conductive strips 24; when the LED light strip includes multiple sets of positive and negative power supply circuits or signal circuits, the light strip connector 20 can also be provided with multiple conductive strips 24.

[0019] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The pressure strip 3 includes a plurality of pressure strips corresponding to the conductive strip 24, and the plurality of pressure strips 3 are connected through a mounting portion 31. A plug 32 is provided at the lower side of the mounting portion 31 to cooperate with the plug slot 26 of the power connector 2. A second slot 33 is provided at the upper side of the mounting portion 31. Anti-skid teeth 34 and contacts 35 are provided at the lower side of the tail end of the pressure strip 3. The height difference between the anti-skid teeth 34 and the contacts 35 is equal to the thickness of the conductive strip 24. The pressure strip 3 can also be injection molded into an integral structure with the body 21 of the power connector 2.

[0020] refer to Figure 7 . The fastening sleeve 4 has an inner cavity 40 that is interference-fitted with the light strip connector 20, and the inner cavity 40 includes an upper side surface 41, a lower side surface 42, and left and right side surfaces 43. The interference fit means that after the fastening sleeve 4 is installed, the upper and lower side surfaces 41, 42 thereof are interference-fitted with the pressure strip 3 and the bottom plate 23, so as to achieve the purpose of fixing the LED light strip 1. The upper side surface 41 and the lower side surface 42 are provided with a clamping strip 44 that cooperates with the first clamping groove 25 and the second clamping groove 33, and the left and right side surfaces 43 are provided with a guide groove 45 that cooperates with the guide rib 27. One end of the fastening sleeve 4 connected to the light strip connector 20 is the inner end 4a, and the other end is the outer end 4b. The upper side surface 41 can be further configured as an inclined surface in which the upper and lower spacing L1 of the inner end 4a is greater than the upper and lower spacing L2 of the outer end 4b, so that the interference fit between the inner end 4a of the fixing sleeve and the light strip connector 20 is smaller than the outer end 4b. In this way, on the one hand, the fixing sleeve 4 is easier to install, and on the other hand, the fixing sleeve 4 exerts greater pressure on the pressure strip 3.

[0021] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,and Figure 8The assembly method of the utility model is: firstly, the LED light strip 1 is passed through the fixing sleeve 4, and then the end of the circuit board 11 of the LED light strip 1 is embedded between the bottom plate 23 of the light strip connector 20 and the conductive strip 24, and the connection terminal 13 on the circuit board 11 is aligned with the conductive strip 24; then the pin 32 of the pressure strip 3 is inserted into the plug-in slot 26 of the body 21, and the pressure strip 3 is aligned with the conductive strip 24, and then the fixing sleeve 4 is sleeved to the light strip connector 20, when the inner end 4a of the fixing sleeve 4 is close to the body 21 of the light strip connector 20, the guide ribs 27 on both sides of the body 21 are inserted into the guide grooves 45 on both sides of the fixing sleeve 4, and the fixing sleeve 4 is continuously pushed until the clamping strips 44 on the upper and lower sides of the fixing sleeve 4 are respectively inserted into the first clamping slot 25 and the second clamping slot 33, so that the fixing sleeve 4 is fixed to the power connector 2. At this time, the upper side surface 41 of the inner cavity of the fastening sleeve squeezes the pressure strip 3, so that the anti-slip teeth 34 of the pressure strip 3 are pressed on the circuit board 11, fixing the circuit board and the power connector 2. At the same time, the contact 35 of the pressure strip 3 is also pressed on the conductive strip 24, making the conductive strip 24 in close electrical contact with the terminal 13 on the circuit board 11.

[0022] The upper side of the inner cavity 40 of the tightening sleeve can also be provided with ribs inclined relative to the lower side to apply pressure to the pressure strip. The utility model preferably has an inclined upper side, so that there is no need to consider the alignment problem and it is easier to install. Since the pressure strip 3 and the power connector 2 are an assembled structure, the pressure strip 3 can be made of a material with lower rigidity than the tightening sleeve 4 and the power connector 2 to avoid hard contact with the circuit board 11, thereby protecting the circuit board 11 and providing a more durable tightening force on the circuit board 11. Since the pressure of the tightening sleeve 4 on the circuit board 11 mainly comes from the outer end of the tightening sleeve 4, the clamping strip 44 is arranged at the inner end 4a of the tightening sleeve, the tightening sleeve 4 is easier to install, the tightening sleeve 4 and the power connector 2 are more evenly stressed, and the tensile strength of the LED light strip is stronger. Since the height difference between the anti-slip teeth 34 and the contact 35 is equal to the thickness of the conductive strip 24, the pressure of the pressure strip 3 on the circuit board 11 and the conductive strip 24 can be made the same, preventing the side with lower pressure from loosening. Since the outer surface of the tightening sleeve 4 is flush with the outer surface of the fixing portion 24 of the power connector 2, the product is more beautiful as a whole.

[0023] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the utility model fixes the circuit board by the pressure generated by the interference fit between the fixing sleeve and the light strip connector, and also makes the conductive strip electrically contact with the circuit board terminal, and the pressure is strong and durable; the fixing of the fixing sleeve and the power connector is achieved by the clamping connection between the clamping strip of the fixing sleeve and the clamping groove of the power connector, and the function of the clamping connection is only to prevent the fixing sleeve from slipping out of the power connector, and its function is single, the burden is lower, and the clamping connection is more reliable; in addition, since the fixing sleeve has no movable parts, it can be made of hard materials, and the clamping and fastening force is stronger. Therefore, the utility model has the advantages of stronger tensile resistance of the LED light strip and more reliable electrical connection.

[0024] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, and these all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
