Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of LEDs, in particular to a bendable rubber-coated profile structure and a light strip. Background Art

[0002] In the installation of LED light strip products, profiles (extrudate) are often used as auxiliary installation accessories to fix and protect LED light strip products from damage due to external impact, so that LED products can be used both indoors and outdoors. Generally, profiles are objects with certain geometric shapes made of metal materials and materials with certain strength and toughness (such as plastic, aluminum, glass fiber, etc.) through rolling, extrusion or casting.

[0003] like Figure 1 As shown, an existing profile structure is shown, which is made of aluminum, stainless steel or other metals, and can be made into an auxiliary fixing shell according to the appearance of different products. Usually the profile is set as a U-shaped groove, and the product is fixed by being embedded in the body, so as to achieve the effect of protection.

[0004] exist Figure 1 The profile in the example has a U-shaped cross-section. In other examples, it can also be square, circular, triangular or other special-shaped surfaces. However, this type of profile is mostly hard and long and cannot be bent. The outer shell is generally made of aluminum or other hard materials. When used in some harsh outdoor environments, especially long-term use in water, it is easy to cause rust, corrosion and damage to the metal shell of the profile.
