[0069] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 Specifically, the electrical connection structure includes a first protection component 4 and a second protection component 5 . The first protection component 4 is provided with an output electrical interface 6 , and the second protection component 5 is provided with an input electrical interface 7 .

[0070] Combination Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, when the light source component 1 is mounted on the first swing arm component 21 or the second swing arm component 22, the first swing arm component 21 or the second swing arm component 22 is mechanically connected to the light source component 1 through the first protection component 4 and the second protection component 5, and the first swing arm component 21 or the second swing arm component 22 is electrically connected to the light source component 1 through the output electrical interface 6 and the input electrical interface 7. When the pivot mechanism 2 includes the first swing arm component 21 and the second swing arm component 22, the first swing arm component 21 and the second swing arm component 22 are mechanically connected through the first protection component 4 and the second protection component 5, and the first swing arm component 21 and the second swing arm component 22 are electrically connected through the output electrical interface 6 and the input electrical interface 7.

[0071] Since the first protection component 4 and the second protection component 5 bear the mechanical stress between the adjacent components at both ends of the electrical connection structure, and the output electrical interface 6 and the input electrical interface 7 are not subjected to any force inside the first protection component 4 and the second protection component 5 respectively, the problem of the output electrical interface 6 and the input electrical interface 7 being easily damaged under the influence of mechanical stress for a long time can be avoided, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection of each component and thus improving the service life of the lighting fixture.

[0072] Please continue reading Figure 6 and Figure 7 The first protection component 4 includes an output fixing seat 41 and an output fixing joint 42, the second protection component 5 includes an input fixing seat 51 and an input fixing joint 52, the output fixing seat 41 is nested in the output fixing joint 42, the input fixing seat 51 is nested in the input fixing joint 52, the output electrical interface 6 is fixed on the output fixing seat 41, and the input electrical interface 7 is fixed on the input fixing seat 51.

[0073] See also Figure 7 The input fixed joint 52 is embedded in the input end of the second rocker component and / or the light source component, and the output fixed joint 42 includes an embedded section 421 and an inserted section 422. The embedded section 421 is embedded in the output end of the first rocker component or the second rocker component, and the inserted section 422 is inserted in the corresponding input fixed joint 52.

[0074] Furthermore, the outer wall of the plug section 422 is provided with a first support surface 423 along its circumference, the first support surface 423 is arranged perpendicular to the axial direction of the output fixed joint 42, and the first support surface 423 is located at one end of the plug section 422 close to the embedded section 421. The inner wall of the input fixed joint 52 is provided with a second support surface 521 along its circumference, the second support surface 521 is arranged perpendicular to the axial direction of the input fixed joint 52, and the second support surface 521 is located at one end of the input fixed joint 52 away from the first support surface 423. The input fixed joint 52 and the output fixed joint 42 are mutually abutted through the first support surface 423 and the second support surface 521, so that the mechanical stress between the adjacent components (such as the first swing arm component and the second swing arm component) at both ends of the electrical connection structure is mainly concentrated on the first protection component 4 and the second protection component 5, thereby avoiding damage to the output electrical interface 6 and the input electrical interface 7.

[0075] In one embodiment, the input fixing joint 52 is threadedly connected to the input end of the second swing arm component and / or the light source component, and the output fixing joint 42 is threadedly connected to the output end of the first swing arm component or the second swing arm component, which is convenient for installation and disassembly.

[0076] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the embedded section 421 is larger than the inner diameter of the plug section 422, the outer diameter of the output fixed seat 41 is matched with the inner diameter of the embedded section 421, the inner wall of the output fixed joint 42 forms a step-like structure at the corresponding first support surface 423, and the end surface of the output fixed seat 41 close to the input fixed joint 52 abuts against the step-like structure. The step-like structure can limit the output fixed seat 41 in the axial direction of the electrical connection structure.

[0077] The output fixing seat 41 is provided with a first fixing hole 411 , and the output electrical interface 6 is fixed to the output fixing seat 41 through the first fixing hole 411 .

[0078] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the end of the input fixing seat 51 away from the output fixing seat 41 is larger than the outer diameter of the end close to the output fixing seat 41, the end of the input fixing seat 51 away from the output fixing seat 41 overlaps the second support surface 521, and the end of the input fixing seat 51 close to the output fixing seat 41 is inserted into the input fixing joint 52. With such a design, the input fixing seat 51 can be limited in the axial direction of the electrical connection structure.

[0079] The input fixing seat 51 is provided with a second fixing hole 511 , and the input electrical interface 7 is fixed to the input fixing seat 51 through the second fixing hole 511 .

[0080] Since the input fixing seat 51 and the output fixing seat 41 are both limited in the axial direction of the electrical connection structure, it is further ensured that the input electrical interface 7 and the output electrical interface 6 will not be subjected to mechanical stress between adjacent components after being plugged in. Moreover, the first protection component 4 and the second protection component 5 as well as the input electrical interface 7 and the output electrical interface 6 are all connected in a plug-in manner, which can realize plug-and-play of each component, is convenient to use, and can also realize circumferential rotation along the electrical connection structure, avoiding the disadvantage that ordinary plug terminals cannot be rotated arbitrarily when used.

The first lever arm 204 has a cavity, and the second lever arm 205 can be disposed in the cavity of the first lever arm 204, so that the first swing arm component 21 has a strong integrity and saves space.

[0082] The first hinge point A, the second hinge point D, the third hinge point B and the fourth hinge point C form a quadrilateral ABCD (as shown by the imaginary connecting lines between the hinge points in the figure), wherein the lengths of the connecting line between the first hinge point A and the third hinge point B (i.e., the AB side (imaginary) of the quadrilateral), the connecting line between the first hinge point A and the second hinge point D (i.e., the AD side (imaginary) of the quadrilateral), and the connecting line between the second hinge point D and the fourth hinge point C (i.e., the DC side (imaginary) of the quadrilateral) are all kept constant.

[0083] Due to the inevitable assembly errors and process tolerances between the first lever arm 204, the second lever arm 205, the swing arm base 201 and the first steering head 203, the first swing arm component 21 is in the first position (such as Figure 8 ) and the second position (as shown Fig. 9 When the first steering head 203 swings between the two directions (as shown in the figure), the direction of the connecting port (i.e., the output electrical interface 6) on the first steering head 203 deviates from the preset direction (such as the vertical direction), and the deviation angle will directly affect the angles of other components connected above the first rocker component 21.

[0084] Based on this, in the embodiment of the utility model, by setting a compensation fine-tuning structure 206 at one end of the second lever arm 205 close to the first steering head 203, the second lever arm 205 is hinged to the first steering head 203 at the fourth hinge point C through the compensation fine-tuning structure 206. The first steering head 203 is provided with an output electrical interface 6, and the distance between the third hinge point B and the fourth hinge point C is adjusted by adjusting the length of the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 in the axial direction of the second lever arm 205, so that the first steering head 203 rotates a certain angle around the second hinge point D so as to always keep the direction of the output electrical interface 6 in a preset direction (such as a vertical direction).

[0085] See also Fig.10 The compensation fine-tuning structure 206 includes a fine-tuning screw 207 and a first connecting rod 208. One end of the first connecting rod 208 is threadedly connected to the fine-tuning screw 207, and the other end of the first connecting rod 208 is hinged to the first steering head 203 at the fourth hinge point C. The fine-tuning screw 207 drives the first connecting rod 208 to move in the axial direction of the second lever arm 205 by rotating.

[0086] Specifically, the fine-tuning screw 207 is arranged parallel to the axis direction of the second lever arm. When the fine-tuning screw 207 rotates in the first direction, the first connecting rod 208 moves away from the swing arm base 201, so that the length of the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 in the axis direction of the second lever arm is extended, that is, the length of the connecting line between the third hinge point B and the fourth hinge point C (that is, the BC side of the quadrilateral (imaginary)) is extended. During the swinging process of the first swing arm component, if the output electrical interface 6 is offset to the third position, such as Fig.11As shown, at this time, the fine-tuning screw 207 is rotated in a first direction (such as counterclockwise), so that the length of the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 in the direction of the second arm axis is extended, and under the push of the first connecting rod 208 and the hinge action of the second hinge point D, the first steering head 203 is rotated counterclockwise around the second hinge point D by a specified angle a, so that the direction of the output electrical interface 6 of the first steering head 203 is always maintained in a preset direction (such as a vertical direction).

[0087] When the fine-tuning screw 207 rotates in the second direction, the first connecting rod 208 moves toward the direction close to the swing arm base 201, so that the length of the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 in the direction of the second arm axis is shortened, that is, the length of the connecting line between the third hinge point B and the fourth hinge point C (that is, the BC side of the quadrilateral (imaginary)) is shortened. The first direction and the second direction are opposite rotation directions. During the swinging process of the first swing arm component, if the output electrical interface 6 is offset to the fourth position, such as Fig.12 As shown, at this time, the fine-tuning screw 207 is rotated in the second direction (such as clockwise), so that the length of the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 in the direction of the second arm axis is shortened, and under the pulling of the first connecting rod 208 and the hinge action of the second hinge point D, the first steering head 203 is rotated around the second hinge point D in the clockwise direction by a specified angle a, so that the direction of the output electrical interface 6 of the first steering head 203 is always maintained in a preset direction (such as vertical direction).

[0088] After the first swing arm component 21 is adjusted by the compensation fine-tuning structure 206, the lengths of at least one set of opposite sides in the quadrilateral formed by the first hinge point A, the second hinge point D, the third hinge point B and the fourth hinge point C are not equal. For example, the length of the BC side (imaginary) of the quadrilateral is adjusted by the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 so that the length of the BC side (imaginary) of the quadrilateral is greater than or less than the length of the AD side (imaginary) of the quadrilateral, that is, the quadrilateral is adjusted to a trapezoidal structure.

[0089] Please continue reading Fig.10 In one embodiment, the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 further includes a locking member, and a first connecting hole 209 is provided on the first connecting rod 208, and the locking member is passed through the first connecting hole 209. After the compensation fine-tuning structure 206 is adjusted, the locking member is adjusted to abut against the fine-tuning screw 207 to achieve locking of the compensation fine-tuning structure 206.

[0090] See also Fig.13The second arm 205 also includes a locking device 210, a sleeve 211 and a pre-tightening assembly 212. One end of the sleeve 211 is connected to the rocker base 201 through the locking device 210, and the other end of the sleeve 211 is connected to the first steering head 203 through the compensating fine-tuning structure 206. The pre-tightening assembly 212 is arranged in the sleeve 211, and the locking device 210 is used to drive the pre-tightening assembly 212 to undergo elastic deformation along the axial direction of the sleeve 211. The pre-tightening force generated by the pre-tightening assembly 212 has a vertical component force equal to the gravity exerted on the first rocker component.

[0091] The pre-tightening assembly 212 includes a pre-tightening element 214 and a sliding rod 215. One end of the pre-tightening element 214 is fixed to the end of the sleeve 211 near the swing arm base 201, and the other end of the pre-tightening element 214 is sleeved on the sliding rod 215. The locking device 210 includes a locking rope 216. One end of the locking rope 216 is fixed to the swing arm base 201, and the other end of the locking rope 216 is fixed to the sliding rod 215 by passing through the first hinge point A and the pre-tightening element 214. During the swinging process of the first swing arm component 21, the sliding rod 215 is driven to slide axially along the sleeve 211 by the change in the length of the locking rope 216 passing through the first hinge point A, so that the pre-tightening element 214 is elastically deformed along the axial direction of the sleeve 211.

[0092] In one embodiment, the preload element 214 is a spring, and the spring is in a compressed state during the swinging of the swing arm assembly.

[0093] The preload element 214 has a preset preload force, which can at least resist the weight of the first swing arm component. Preferably, the preset preload force can resist the total weight of the first swing arm component and other components thereon (such as the second swing arm component and the light source component).

[0094] The locking rope 216 is fixed on the swing arm base 201 via the first hinge point A. The first hinge point A, the third hinge point B and the connection point E of the locking rope 216 and the sliding rod 215 form a vector triangle (ABE). The pre-tightening element 214 has a preset pre-tightening force. After being fixed on the swing arm base 201, the locking rope 216 can form a reaction force relative to the pre-tightening force of the pre-tightening element 214. When the first swing arm component is swinging, the sliding rod 215 and the pre-tightening element 214 are driven to slide by changing the length of the pivot axis of the locking rope 216 via the first hinge point A, thereby dynamically adjusting the pre-tightening force of the pre-tightening element 214. For example, the initial pre-tightening force of the pre-tightening element 214 is set to: when the first swing arm component is placed vertically (i.e., nearly parallel to the central axis of the swing arm base), the total weight of the first swing arm component and other components located thereon. When the first swing arm component is placed vertically, the locking rope 216 and the pivot axis at the first hinge point A are similar to a tangent state. At this time, the length of the locking rope 216 around the pivot axis at the first hinge point A is the shortest, and the AE side of the vector triangle is the longest. The initial vertical upward preload force of the preload element 214 and the total weight of the first swing arm component and other components located thereon offset each other, and the entire lamp is close to zero gravity. When the first swing arm component is tilted at a certain angle, the length of the locking rope 216 around the first hinge point A becomes longer, and the locking rope 216 pulls the sliding rod 215 to slide to compress the preload element 214, and the AE side of the vector triangle becomes shorter, thereby dynamically adjusting the preload force of the preload element 214 so that the vertical component of the preload force is equal to the total weight of the first swing arm component and other components located thereon.

[0095] This embodiment constructs a vector triangle (ABE) which, based on the equilibrium equation of the plane force system (the vector triangle solves the dynamic balance problem), generates a partial upward component of force and a mutual balance between the overall product mass gravity, thereby achieving adjustment and hovering of the lamp at any position in the use space without any rebound or sagging after adjustment.

[0096] Furthermore, a first plug 217 and a second plug 218 are fixedly provided on the inner walls of both ends of the sleeve 211 , respectively. One end of the preload element 214 abuts against the first plug 217 , and the sliding rod 215 slides between the first plug 217 and the second plug 218 .

[0097] Furthermore, a silencer tube 213 is sleeved in the sleeve 211, and the pre-tightening element 214 and the sliding rod 215 are both located in the silencer tube 213, and the pre-tightening element 214 and the sliding rod 215 move within the length of the silencer tube 213, thereby preventing the pre-tightening component 212 from generating noise during the sliding process.

[0098] See also Fig.14The locking device 210 includes a locking rope 216, a guide wheel 219 and a second connecting rod 220. One end of the second connecting rod 220 is hinged to the swing rod base, the other end of the second connecting rod 220 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 211, and the guide wheel 219 is rotatably arranged on the second connecting rod 220. One end of the locking rope 216 is fixed to the swing rod base 201, and the other end of the locking rope 216 is wound around the guide wheel 219 and passed through the pre-tightening assembly 212 and fixed to the end of the pre-tightening assembly 212 away from the swing rod base 201.

[0099] Under the guidance of the wire wheel 219, the portion of the locking rope 216 on the side of the wire wheel 219 away from the swing arm base 201 is always parallel to the central axis of the pre-tightening assembly 212. During the rotation of the swing arm base 202 around the swing arm base 201, there is rolling friction between the locking rope 216 and the wire wheel 219, and the portion of the locking rope 216 located in the sleeve 211 is always parallel to the central axis of the pre-tightening assembly 212, so that the locking rope 216 and the internal structure of the sleeve 211 can be prevented from sliding friction, thereby protecting the locking rope 216 from damage. Since there is no sliding friction between the locking rope 216 and the internal structure of the sleeve 211, it will not affect the pre-tightening force of the pre-tightening assembly 212, thereby improving the stability of the lighting fixture.

[0100] Specifically, the locking rope 216 is located between the wire wheel 219 and the second connecting rod 220, and there is a gap between the locking rope 216 and the second connecting rod 220 to avoid sliding friction between the locking rope 216 and the second connecting rod 220. The locking rope 216 passes around the wire wheel 219 and passes through the pre-tightening element 214 to be fixed on the sliding rod 215.

[0101] Furthermore, the locking device 210 further includes a wire wheel pressure cover 221 , and both ends of the rotating shaft of the wire wheel 219 are rotatably mounted on the second connecting rod 220 through two wire wheel pressure covers 221 .

[0102] Furthermore, the portion of the locking rope 216 disposed on the rocker base 201 is bent multiple times to form a curve, so that the locking rope 216 increases static friction multiple times, thereby improving the stability of the locking device.

[0103] Specifically, see Fig.15 and Fig.16 The swing rod base 201 includes a swing rod base body 222 and a wire pressing fixing plate 223. The swing rod base body 222 is provided with a curved slot 231. The locking rope 216 is passed through the curved slot 231, so that the locking rope 216 forms a corresponding curved segment. Fig.15 As shown, the locking rope 216 is wound through the bending slot 231 and forms the first and second bending changes at the point F. Fig.16As shown, the locking rope 216 forms the third and fourth bending changes at the G point after winding through the bending slot 231. And the end of the locking rope 216 is pressed between the wire pressing fixing plate 223 and the swing rod base body 222 through a fastener.

[0104] The locking rope 216 cleverly increases static friction multiple times through the curved design, and the locking rope 216 is very stable due to the function of the wire pressing fixing plate 223, so it is not easy to loosen. In this way, while compressing the preload element, the reaction force calculation is more accurate, so the mass gravity and reaction force calculation of the overall product are more accurate, and the product experience performance is more superior.

[0105] See also Figure 17-Figure 19 , the first pivot shaft 224 at the first hinge point A is built into the cavity of the rocker assembly 202 (first lever arm 204), the rocker base 201 further includes a sleeve fixing plate 227, a damping sleeve 230 and a fastener 229, the sleeve fixing plate 227 is fixed to the rocker base body 222 through the fastener 229, and the sleeve fixing plate 227 and the rocker base body 222 are sleeved on the first pivot shaft 224 through the damping sleeve 230. The damping sleeve 230 includes a first sleeve 225 and a second sleeve 226, which are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the rocker base body 222 and the sleeve fixing plate 227. The first sleeve 225 and the second sleeve 226 are both adapted to the first pivot shaft 224, and the first sleeve 225 and the second sleeve 226 are combined to form a cavity structure for accommodating the first pivot shaft 224.

[0106] The rocker arm base body 222 is installed on one side of the first pivot shaft 224 via the first bushing 225, and the bushing fixing plate 227 is installed on the other side of the first pivot shaft 224 via the second bushing 226, and the bushing fixing plate 227 is fixed to the rocker arm base body 222 by the fastener 229, thereby realizing a two-in-one fixing method of the rocker arm base 201 and the rocker arm assembly 202, making the structure more compact and rigorous, and the space for multiple structures to be used together is smaller.

[0107] Furthermore, there is a gap (for example, 0.6 mm) between the first sleeve 225 and the second sleeve 226. By adjusting the fastener 229, the distance between the first sleeve 225 and the second sleeve 226 can be changed, so that the damping force between the damping sleeve 230 and the first pivot shaft 224 is increased or decreased. In this embodiment, the damping force between the damping sleeve 230 and the first pivot shaft 224 is adjusted by adjusting the damping, so as to prevent the swing arm assembly from rebounding or sagging after adjustment, so that the overall lamp can better achieve the balance adjustment of gravity and reaction force.

[0108] The lighting fixture provided by the utility model integrates a variety of geometric mechanics principles, comprehensively designs the natural gravity of the product and the friction generated during the connection of the mechanism, and constructs a vector triangle to solve the dynamic balance problem. The lamp can be adjusted and hovered at any position in the use space, and can be rotated and adjusted at any angle (more than 360°) with just a light touch, without any rebound or sagging after adjustment.
