Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lamps, in particular to a strip light source structure that prevents power lines from being pulled off. Background Art

[0002] In traditional lamp design, the layout of the power cord is often the weak link of the lamp. Since the power cord comes out directly from the controller and then extends outward, this design often exposes and pulls the power cord during the installation, adjustment or maintenance of the lamp. In this state, the power cord is easy to break when subjected to excessive force or improper operation. The breakage of the wire not only means the loss of the lamp's efficacy, but also may cause safety hazards, such as short circuits, and even fire. In addition, once the power cord is damaged, repair or replacement often requires professional technicians and may involve disassembly of the entire lamp, which will bring additional maintenance costs and time consumption.

[0003] In addition, in waterproof light sources, it is usually necessary to place the light strip in the installation slot and then apply sealant in the installation slot. However, in actual operation, since the installation slot is often open at both ends, it becomes difficult to inject sealant, and the continuity and sealing integrity cannot be guaranteed, resulting in a significant reduction in the waterproof effect. In addition, the open slot also means that the two ends of the light strip and the controller are easily exposed to the external environment, increasing the risk of water erosion or physical damage. These problems not only affect the normal service life of the lamp, but may also cause circuit short circuits due to water intrusion, increase safety hazards, and bring inconvenience to installation and maintenance work.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to further improve and perfect the prior art to overcome these deficiencies, and the present invention is made based on this situation. Utility Model Content

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. One of the main innovations of the utility model is the reverse routing structure of the power cord, which significantly improves the durability of the power cord and reduces the risk of power cord damage caused by improper installation or maintenance. The power cord does not extend directly outward from the end of the light strip, but is guided through the corner channel so that the power cord first changes direction inside the end cap and then extends along the length of the shell. Such a routing structure greatly reduces the possibility of the power cord being directly pulled by external forces, because the power cord forms a buffer at the corner inside the end cap, which can absorb and disperse the pulling force caused by improper operation, thereby protecting the power cord from being easily broken.

[0016] 2. In addition, the design of reverse routing of the power cord also allows the power cord to have a longer routing path inside the shell, which not only increases the stability and protection of the power cord, but also leaves room for possible adjustment of the light strip position in the later stage.

[0017] 3. Another important innovation of the utility model is the protective structure for both ends of the light strip and the controller, which can shield and protect the controller and power cord. This design not only improves the overall aesthetics, but also greatly improves the practicality and maintenance convenience of the product. These baffles are designed to be flipped back and forth and easily fixed in the receiving slot, which not only provides solid physical protection for the two ends of the light strip and the controller and power cord therein, but also adds a sense of neatness and refinement to the overall appearance. When the baffles are closed and fixed, the two ends of the light strip, the controller and the power cord are effectively shielded, thereby reducing the risk of damage to these parts due to external factors.

[0018] 4. In addition, this baffle design greatly simplifies the process of applying the sealant. After the baffle is closed and fixed, the first baffle, the second baffle, the first end cover, the second end cover and the light strip form an ideal sealing environment, and the sealant can be applied easily and evenly, ensuring the uniformity and reliability of the sealing effect.

[0026] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 6 The strip light source structure for preventing the power cord from being pulled off shown comprises a strip housing 1, the front side of the housing 1 is provided with a receiving groove 11 arranged along the length direction thereof, and a detachable light strip 2 is provided in the receiving groove 11. One end of the light strip 2 is connected to a controller, and the controller is connected to a power cord.

[0028] The left and right ends of the receiving groove 11 are detachably connected with a first end cap 3 and a second end cap 4, respectively. This detachable design not only facilitates the installation and replacement of the light strip 2, but also provides additional protection for the light strip. When maintaining or replacing the light strip, the user can easily remove the end cap, operate it, and then fix it back, which greatly reduces the risk of damage to the power cord.

[0029] The receiving groove 11 is filled with a sealant for sealing the light strip 2, the first end cap 3 and the second end cap 4. By filling the sealant for sealing the light strip 2, the first end cap 3 and the second end cap 4 in the receiving groove 11, it can not only effectively prevent moisture from entering and protect the circuit from water damage, but also increase the stability of the entire structure, reduce the movement of the light strip and the power cord during use, and further reduce the possibility of breaking. In addition, this design enables the light source to be used underwater, greatly broadening its application scenarios, such as underwater lighting, outdoor waterproof lighting, etc.

[0030] One of the main innovations of the utility model is the reverse routing structure of the power cord, which significantly improves the durability of the power cord and reduces the risk of power cord damage caused by improper installation or maintenance. The details are as follows:

[0031] The core of this reverse wiring structure is the protrusion 31 designed on the first end cover 3, and a corner-shaped wire-threading channel 311 is provided inside the protrusion 311. The advantage of this wire-threading channel design is that it changes the direction of the power line, guides the power line into a specially designed inlet opening 312, and then the power line turns a corner in the channel, and finally guides out through the outlet opening 313, extending toward the other end of the length direction of the housing 1.

[0032] The cleverness of this design lies in the fact that the direction of the power cord is fundamentally different from the traditional straight extension method. The power cord does not extend directly outward from the end of the light strip, but is guided through the corner channel, so that the power cord first changes direction inside the end cap, and then extends along the length direction of the shell. This wiring structure greatly reduces the possibility of the power cord being directly pulled under external force, because the power cord forms a buffer at the corner inside the end cap. This structure can absorb and disperse the tension caused by improper operation, thereby protecting the power cord from being easily broken.

[0033] In addition, this design also allows the power cord to have a longer routing path inside the housing, which not only increases the stability and protection of the power cord, but also leaves room for possible adjustment of the light strip position in the future. When maintaining or replacing the light strip, the operator does not have to worry about direct pulling damage to the power cord due to operation, thus ensuring the stability and safety of the light source system.

[0034] Another important innovation of the utility model is the protective structure for both ends of the light strip 2 and the controller, which can shield and protect the controller and power cord, and also facilitate the application of sealant. This design not only improves the overall aesthetics, but also greatly improves the practicality and maintenance convenience of the product. The details are as follows:

[0035] In the traditional design of light strips, the two ends of the light strips and the controller are often directly exposed to the external environment, which not only affects the appearance, but also easily causes these key components to be damaged under the influence of external forces or the external environment. The utility model effectively solves this problem by providing a flip-closed baffle on each of the first end cover 3 and the second end cover 4, namely the first baffle 32 and the second baffle 41.

[0036] These baffles are designed to be flipped back and forth and easily snapped into the receiving slots 11, which not only provide solid physical protection for the two ends of the light strip and the controller and power cord therein, but also add a sense of neatness and refinement to the overall appearance. When the baffles are closed and fixed, the two ends of the light strip and the controller and power cord are effectively shielded, thereby reducing the risk of damage to these parts due to external factors.

[0037] In addition, this baffle design greatly simplifies the process of applying the sealant. After the baffle is closed and fixed, the first baffle 32, the second baffle 41, the first end cover 3, the second end cover 4 and the light strip 2 form an ideal sealing environment, and the sealant can be applied easily and evenly, ensuring the uniformity and reliability of the sealing effect. This not only enhances the protection performance of the light source structure, but also ensures the waterproof and dustproof performance under long-term use, greatly extending the service life of the product.

[0038] In summary, the utility model not only provides additional protection for key components by adding a flip-closed baffle design at both ends of the light strip, but also facilitates the application of sealant, thereby improving the overall durability and protection, while also bringing convenience to the user's installation and maintenance work.

[0039] More specifically, if Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the first baffle plate 32 is rotatably connected or flexibly connected to the first end cover 3 , and the second baffle plate 41 is rotatably connected or flexibly connected to the second end cover 4 .

[0040] Among them, the rotation connection is usually achieved by using a mechanical structure such as a hinge. This method allows the baffle to rotate along a fixed axis to achieve the opening and closing function. The hinged method provides a clear rotation path for the baffle, making the opening and closing action both stable and reliable. Specifically, a rotation mechanism similar to a door hinge will be installed between the first end cover 3 and the first baffle 32, and between the second end cover 4 and the second baffle 41 to ensure that the baffle can be easily flipped open or closed.

[0041] On the other hand, flexible connection provides a different technical path. In this design, the first baffle 32 is flexibly connected to the first end cover 3 as an integral extension, that is, the first baffle 32 is integrally connected to the first end cover 3 and the connection between the two is flexible. This connection method usually uses the elasticity of the material itself to allow the baffle to flip. A significant advantage of this design is that the number of parts is reduced, because the baffle and the end cover are integrally formed, thereby reducing the complexity and cost of assembly. Similarly, the second baffle 41 is also flexibly connected to the second end cover 4 in a similar manner. This flexible connection method not only maintains the functionality of the baffle, but also increases the beauty and simplicity of the overall design.

[0042] More specifically, the two inner side walls of the receiving groove 11 are respectively provided with a slot 111 arranged along the length direction thereof, the first baffle 32 is respectively provided with a first buckle 321 which is elastic and can be mutually engaged with the corresponding slot 111 on both sides, and the second baffle 41 is respectively provided with a second buckle 411 which is elastic and can be mutually engaged with the corresponding slot 111 on both sides. The coordinated use of the elastic buckle and the corresponding slot ensures the sealing and stability of the baffle when it is closed, which is very important for dustproof, waterproof and preventing the baffle from loosening under vibration or impact. This structure not only improves the overall structural stability, but also simplifies the installation and maintenance process of the light strip.

[0043] More specifically, the two inner side walls of the receiving groove 11 are respectively provided with slots 112 for the two long sides of the light strip 2 to be inserted and slide therein. The slots 112 provide accurate guidance and fixed positions for the two long sides of the light strip. These slots 112 enable the light strip 2 to slide smoothly along the groove into position during installation, and also facilitate replacement or maintenance of the light strip when necessary.

[0044] The first end cap 3 is provided with a first plug-in portion 33 that can be inserted into one end of the two slots 112, and the second end cap 4 is provided with a second plug-in portion 42 that can be inserted into the other end of the two slots 112. The first end cap 3 and the second end cap 4 respectively use the first plug-in portion 33 and the second plug-in portion 42, which can be accurately inserted into the slots 112 of the receiving groove 11, thereby providing a solid and accurate closure for both ends of the light strip. This plug-in method simplifies the assembly process and improves the sealing and overall stability of the light source.

[0045] More specifically, the light strip 2 itself is composed of a strip-shaped PCB board 21, on which are mounted a plurality of light-emitting lamp beads 22. These lamp beads are precisely arranged on the PCB board according to a specific spacing and configuration to ensure uniform distribution of light and efficient light-emitting performance.

[0046] More specifically, the light source structure further includes a specially designed mounting profile 5, which has a mounting groove 51 for inserting the housing 1 from one end. In order to adapt to the protrusion 31 of the housing 1 and prevent interference during the insertion process, an avoidance notch 52 is designed on the rear side wall of one end of the mounting groove 51. This design not only makes the overall installation process smooth and unobstructed, but also ensures the correct positioning of the housing 1 in the profile, further improving the stability and reliability of the light source structure.
