[0037] See also Figure 1 to Figure 7 The utility model relates to a flexible linear light, which comprises a silicone shell 1, a reinforcing component 2, a flexible light-emitting component 3 and a plastic plate 4, wherein:

[0038] An accommodating space 11 is provided inside the silicone shell 1; the reinforcing component 2 includes a bottom plate 21 and two side plates 22 which are fixedly connected, and the bottom plate 21 and the two side plates 22 are in contact with the wall surface of the accommodating space 11; the flexible light-emitting component 3 is connected to the plastic plate 4 by means of adhesive 7, and the plastic plate 4 is placed between the two side plates 22 and is arranged on the bottom plate 21; the flexible light-emitting component 3 includes a flexible circuit board 31 attached to the plastic plate 4 and a plurality of LED lamp beads 32 electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 31.

[0039] The reinforcing component 2 in a flexible linear lamp involved in the present invention is composed of a bottom plate 21 and two side plates 22. The reinforcing component 2 is made of metal or hard plastic material, and can be connected to the silicone shell 1 by injection molding, wherein the two side plates 22 are respectively abutted against the shell walls 100 of the silicone shell 1 on both sides of the accommodating space 11, and the bottom plate 21 is abutted against the shell wall of the silicone shell 1 at the bottom of the accommodating space 11 to improve the strength of the shell wall 100 there and prevent it from deforming. In this way, it can be ensured that the wall surface of the accommodating space 11 will not touch the flexible light-emitting component 3, and the surface of the reinforcing component 2 is relatively smooth, and the friction resistance between the reinforcing component 2 and the flexible light-emitting component 3 is relatively small, which can ensure a smooth insertion process, reduce the risk of scratching the silicone shell 1 and avoid the occurrence of malfunction of the flexible light-emitting component 3, thereby improving the yield rate of the final product. At the same time, the flexible light-emitting component 3 is connected to the plastic plate 4 by adhesive 7, which increases the strength of the flexible light-emitting component 3, not only further facilitates the smooth insertion of the flexible light-emitting component 3 into the accommodating space 11, but also effectively prevents the flexible light-emitting component 3 from bending and breaking during installation and use.

[0040] Preferably, the reinforcing component 2 may further include a top plate connected to the two side plates 22 , and the flexible light-emitting component 3 is disposed between the top plate and the bottom plate 21 , so that the flexible light-emitting component 3 can be better protected.

[0041] In this solution, the silicone shell 1 includes a light-shielding outer frame 12 and a light-transmitting inner core 13 installed in the light-shielding outer frame 12. The light-shielding outer frame 12 is provided with at least one light outlet and exposes the light-transmitting inner core 13. The light emitted by the flexible light-emitting component 3 passes through the light-transmitting inner core 13 and is emitted along the light outlet. Preferably, the gap between the light-transmitting inner core 13 and the light-shielding outer frame 12 forms an accommodating space 11. The bottom plate 21 is in contact with the light-shielding outer frame 12, and the LED lamp beads 32 face the light-transmitting inner core 13.

[0042] In this solution, a silicone sleeve 5 is provided on the outer side of the silicone shell 1. It should be noted that when the silicone shell 1 is hit by an external collision, there is a risk of the light-shielding outer frame 12 and the light-transmitting inner core 13 being separated, and the silicone sleeve 5 protects the silicone shell 1, thereby preventing the light-shielding outer frame 12 from being separated from the light-transmitting inner core 13, thereby increasing the service life of the linear light. The silicone sleeve 5 can be set to different colors as needed, such as setting the color of the silicone sleeve 5 according to the color of the wall on which it is installed, so that the flexible linear light is consistent with the wall color and more beautiful.

[0043] In this solution, both sides of the silicone shell 1 are respectively provided with insertion transverse grooves 51. Specifically, the flexible linear light is connected to the corresponding application component through the insertion transverse grooves 51.

[0044] In this solution, two positioning grooves 14 are provided on one side of the accommodating space 11, and the side panels 22 are installed in the corresponding positioning grooves 14. It should be understood that the light-shielding outer frame 12 and the light-transmitting inner core 13 are both made of flexible silicone material, which is easy to deform. When the silicone shell 1 is deformed by force, the edge of the light-transmitting inner core 13 is easy to separate from the light-shielding outer frame 12, affecting the overall structural stability of the silicone shell 1. To solve this problem, the present application adds a positioning groove 14, and the side panel 22 protrudes into the positioning groove 14, and is integrally connected with the light-shielding outer frame 12 and the light-transmitting inner core 13. In this way, the strength of the edge of the light-transmitting inner core 13 and the corresponding position of the light-shielding outer frame 12 can be improved, so that the place is not easy to deform, thereby ensuring that the light-transmitting inner core 13 is stably connected to the light-shielding outer frame 12.

[0045] Preferably, the angle between the side plate 22 and the bottom plate 21 is 60°-90°.

[0046] In this solution, the side of the accommodating space 11 opposite to the flexible light-emitting component 3 is a first refractive surface 15, and the first refractive surface 15 is composed of a plurality of planes with different inclinations. With this design, the light emitted by the flexible light-emitting component 3 is refracted outward when passing through the first refractive surface 15, so that the light is evenly diffused and then emitted from the light outlet, thereby making the flexible line light evenly illuminated, improving the user experience. As another preferred solution, the first refractive surface 15 can also be a curved surface.

[0047] Furthermore, the transparent inner core of the silicone shell 1 is provided with a light-transmitting channel 16, which is arranged above or to the side of the accommodating space 11; at least one second refractive surface 17 is provided in the light-transmitting channel 16, and the second refractive surface 17 is composed of a plurality of planes with different degrees of inclination. The second refractive surface 17 has the same function as the first refractive surface 15, which is to make the light diffuse evenly, and will not be described in detail here. Preferably, an inclined surface and a curved surface are also provided in the light-transmitting channel 16.

[0048] In this solution, the flexible light-emitting assembly 3 is connected with a power line 6, and the silicone housing 1 is provided with a receiving hole 18 for installing the power line 6. With this design, the power line 6 is in a hidden structure, which improves the aesthetics of the flexible linear light.

[0049] Further explanation, the position of the light outlet and the number of light-transmitting channels 16 in the present application will affect the final lighting effect, and can be improved according to the use requirements. In order to more clearly illustrate the technical concept of the utility model, multiple specific embodiments are provided based on the above technical solution.
