DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0038] Example 1: See Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a spring clip structure is inserted into the downlight, including a connecting rod 1, a spring member 2, a spring clip base 3 and a spring clip clip 4; in this embodiment, the above structures are all metal structures, specifically stainless steel sheet structures; wherein the connecting rod is a pin or a shaft rod.
[0039] During processing, mounting ears 5 are integrally formed at both ends of the top edge of the spring clamp base, and a pressing spring sheet 6 is provided at the bottom of the spring clamp base, and the pressing spring sheet and the spring clamp base are V-shaped; in actual application, a convex point can be provided in the middle of the pressing spring sheet to increase the resistance between the spring clamp base and the inner wall of the slot, so as to ensure the effectiveness and stability of the buckle. In this embodiment, the angle between the spring clamp base and the pressing spring sheet is 15-30 degrees. The length and width of the pressing spring sheet can be set as needed, and the pressing spring sheet is a structural sheet formed by cutting and bending the wall of the spring clamp base. During assembly, the spring clamp base and the pressing spring sheet are inserted into the mounting groove of the radiator, and the elastic force of the pressing spring sheet is abutted against the inner wall of the mounting groove for positioning, which improves the convenience and stability of assembly, and does not require additional screws or rivets, reducing the cost and difficulty of assembly.
[0040] In this embodiment, the two ends of the top edge of the spring clip are integrally formed with connecting ears 7; in actual application, the width between the two connecting ears matches the distance between the two mounting ears. Therefore, during assembly, the two mounting ears are located between the two connecting ears. Through the above structure, the convenience and stability of the connection can be improved, and displacement or falling off can also be prevented. During assembly, the mounting ears of the spring clip base are attached to the connecting ears of the spring clip and are rotatably connected through the connecting rod;
[0041] At the same time, during the assembly process, the spring member is sleeved on the connecting rod and is located between the two mounting ears, and one end of the spring member abuts against the side of the spring clip base away from the spring clip clip, and the other end of the spring member abuts against the side of the spring clip clip away from the spring clip base; the spring clip base and the spring clip clip are close to each other under the clamping force at both ends of the spring member. Through the abutment at both ends of the spring member, the distance between the spring clip base and the spring clip clip is relatively fixed. The spring clip base is inserted into the radiator. When it is installed on the ceiling, the spring clip clip will be rotated outward, which will cause the spring member to deform and accumulate force. After the installation is completed, the spring clip clip is firmly clamped into the mounting hole of the ceiling under the resetting action of the spring member.
[0042] In this embodiment, in order to improve the aesthetics of the overall structure and protect the spring clip clip, a spring clip cover 8 is provided on the upper side of the spring clip clip away from the spring clip base. In order to facilitate the assembly convenience and stability of the spring clip cover, through holes and buckle hooks are provided on the upper symmetrical sides of the spring clip cover; the connecting rod is inserted into the through hole 14 and the buckle hook 15. The buckle hook is provided, which has the effect of preventing the bottleneck from loosening. After all accessories are installed in place, the buckle hook can be clamped with one key to prevent the situation of being too loose or too tight due to errors. In addition, in the actual application process, a slot 9 is provided in the middle of the spring clip clip; an insertion protrusion 10 is fixed in the middle of the bottom edge of the spring clip cover; during assembly, the insertion protrusion of the spring clip cover is inserted into the slot and cooperates with the connecting rod to achieve positioning. Through the above structure, the assembly stability and reliability of the spring clip protective cover can be improved, and the assembly convenience of the spring clip protective cover is also improved, which is convenient for disassembly and maintenance operations. The spring clip protective cover can be a plastic structure or a metal structure, which can improve the aesthetics of the overall structure after use.
[0043] In this embodiment, a limiting protrusion 11 is provided on the side of the spring clip; the limiting protrusion is a protrusion sheet formed by stamping on the wall of the spring clip. During assembly, the limiting protrusion is pressed against the side of the spring clip cover, so that a gap for inserting the end of the spring member is provided between the spring clip and the spring clip cover. With the above structure, the assembly effectiveness of the end of the spring member can be improved to prevent the end of the spring member from loosening or falling off.
[0044] The assembly steps are as follows: insert the insertion protrusion of the spring clip cover into the slot of the spring clip clip, so that the two are tightly spliced and combined;
[0045] After assembling the spring clip cover and the spring clip clip, combine the spring clip base with the spring clip clip, align the mounting ear 5 with the circular hole on the connecting ear 7, and align with the hole on the spring cover, place the spring part between the two mounting ears, align the circular hole with the center of the spring part, pass the connecting rod through the spring part and the circular hole, and lock the small nut to fix it.
[0046] The utility model has positive effects: the structure of the utility model is reasonably arranged, and it includes a connecting rod, a spring part, a spring clip base and a spring clip clip. During assembly, the spring clip base, the spring clip clip and the spring part are combined and connected through the connecting rod, which improves the convenience and effectiveness of assembly. Moreover, through the two ends of the spring part, the spring clip base and the spring clip clip can have a clamping elastic force, and the pressing spring sheet and the spring clip base are in a V shape. When assembled with the radiator, the buckle positioning can be achieved by the pressing spring sheet, which improves the convenience and effectiveness of assembly, reduces the use of screws or rivets, reduces the difficulty of assembly, is convenient for disassembly and maintenance operations, and also reduces the processing and assembly costs, and has strong applicability.
[0047] In addition, a spring clip protective cover is arranged on the upper part of the side of the spring clip clip. The insertion protrusion of the spring clip protective cover is inserted into the slot and cooperates with the connecting rod to achieve positioning, which can protect the spring clip clip, improve the overall appearance, and facilitate the disassembly and maintenance operations of the spring clip protective cover. The disassembly and assembly are convenient, which is conducive to maintenance and replacement operations.
