[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0024] like Figure 1-3As shown, the surface-mounted underwater lamp of the utility model is used to be installed at the bottom of a building body storing water, such as a swimming pool, a fountain or an ornamental pool. It includes a lamp body 01 and a mounting bar 02 arranged at the bottom of the lamp body 01. The two ends of the mounting bar 02 are connected to the lamp body 01 by fasteners. When in use, the mounting bar 02 is first fixed to the surface of the building body or the installation position of the building body, and then the lamp body 01 is fixedly installed on the mounting bar 02 by fasteners. The lamp is fixedly installed on the building body.

[0025] The lamp body 01 includes a shell 03 that is in direct contact with the water in the building body, and a mounting plate 04 that is arranged in the shell 03. The mounting plate 04 divides the shell 03 into a sealed chamber and a receiving chamber. The sealed chamber is located between the mounting plate 04 and the top of the shell 03, and the receiving chamber is located between the mounting plate 04 and the bottom of the shell 03. A mounting column 05 extending toward the bottom of the lamp body 01 is arranged on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 04. The mounting column 05 is located in the receiving chamber. A mounting chamber 06 for installing a light source assembly is arranged in the mounting column 05, and the mounting chamber 06 is connected to the sealed chamber. It should also be noted that the mounting plate 04, the shell 03 and the mounting column 05 are formed by mold stamping or injection molding. There is no gap between the mounting plate 04, the shell 03 and the mounting column 05. Ensure the overall sealing of the lamp body 01.

[0026] The mounting plate 04 is fixed with a cover 07 for sealing the mounting chamber 06 by fasteners, and the cover 07 is located in the sealed chamber. A sealing ring or sealant can be provided between the cover 07 and the mounting plate 04 to seal the cover 07 and the mounting plate 04. It should be noted that the sealant or sealing ring between the cover 07 and the mounting plate 04 has a waterproof rating of not less than IP68. The lamp body 01 and the face change are both made of 316 stainless steel, so that the lamp as a whole has corrosion resistance.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, an inlay hole 08 is provided at the opening of the installation chamber 06, the diameter of the inlay hole 08 is larger than the diameter of the installation chamber 06, and the inlay hole 08 is located on the installation plate 04 and is coaxially arranged in a sealed manner. A light-transmitting plate 09 is provided in the inlay hole 08, and a sealing ring 10 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the light-transmitting plate 09, and the waterproof grade of the sealing ring 10 is not less than IP68. The end of the light-transmitting plate 09 passes through the surface cover 07 and is flush with the surface cover 07.

[0028] During the installation process, the sealing ring 10 is first sleeved on the light-transmitting plate 09, and then the sealing ring 10 is placed in the inlay hole 08, and finally the cover 07 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 04 through the fasteners. In the process of screwing the fasteners, the cover 07 squeezes the sealing ring 10 to deform the sealing ring 10, thereby sealing the light-transmitting plate 09, the cover 07 and the lamp body 01. At the same time, at least one sealing strip is provided on the bottom surface of the sealing ring 10. The sealing strip abuts against the lamp body 01. When the sealing strip is squeezed and deformed, it is in close contact with the lamp body 01, further improving the sealing between the light-transmitting plate 09 and the lamp body 01. Since the waterproof grade of the sealing ring 10 is IP68, this means that the waterproof and dustproof grades of the light-transmitting plate 09, the cover 07 and the lamp body 01 are not lower than IP68.

[0029] The lamp body 01 of the utility model is made by an integrated molding process, and an installation chamber 06 is arranged in the lamp body 01, a light source assembly is arranged in the installation chamber 06, a light-transmitting plate 09 is arranged at the opening of the installation chamber 06, a sealing ring 10 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the light-transmitting plate 09, and a surface cover 07 is arranged on the top of the lamp body 01, and the surface cover 07 is used to fix the light-transmitting plate 09 and squeeze and deform the sealing ring 10. During the deformation of the sealing ring 10, both sides of the light-transmitting plate 09 and the surface cover 07 and the lamp body 01 can be sealed accordingly. Compared with the traditional static seal, the extrusion seal effect adopted by the utility model is higher. The waterproof and dustproof performance of the lamp as a whole reaches IP68. And the sealing ring 10 has a certain elasticity, and the resilience of the sealing ring 10 is used to maintain the sealing between the light-transmitting plate 09, the surface cover 07 and the lamp body 01 during long-term use. At the same time, a sealing ring 10 is used to achieve sealing among the light-transmitting plate 09, the surface cover 07 and the lamp body 01, and the structure is simpler than that of traditional underwater mounted lamps.

[0030] The light-transmitting plate 09 includes a connecting plate 11 located in the inlay hole 08 and an extension section 12 integrally formed by the connecting plate 11. The surface cover 07 is provided with an insertion hole 13 adapted to the extension section 12. The extension section 12 is inserted in the insertion hole 13 and is flush with the surface cover 07. The sealing ring 10 is sleeved on the connecting plate 11. The light generated by the light source assembly in the installation chamber 06 passes through the light-transmitting plate 09 and is scattered outside the surface cover 07.

[0031] A plurality of fixing rods 14 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the mounting plate 04. The fixing rods 14 are located in the accommodation chamber and between the housing 03 and the mounting column 05. The mounting plate 04 is provided with the same number of accommodation holes 15 as the fixing rods 14. The fixing rods 14 are provided with fixing holes 16 coaxially arranged with the accommodation holes 15. The diameter of the accommodation holes 15 is larger than the diameter of the fixing holes 16. The surface cover 07 is provided with fixing columns 17 adapted to the accommodation holes 15. During the installation process, the fixing columns 17 on the surface cover 07 are inserted into the accommodation holes 15, and then the fixing columns 17 are threadedly connected through the fixing holes 16 with the fixing columns 17 by fasteners. The fixing columns 17 are provided on the surface cover 07, and the accommodation holes 15 are provided on the mounting plate 04. The fasteners are in the accommodation chamber, so that the surface of the surface cover 07 is flat and beautiful. At the same time, during the installation process, a sealant is provided between the fixing columns 17 and the accommodation holes 15. This prevents water from entering into the space between the cover 07 and the mounting plate 04 through the gaps between the fixing holes 16 , the fixing columns 17 and the receiving holes 15 , thereby further improving the sealing between the cover 07 and the lamp body 01 .

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, a notch 18 is also provided on the housing 03, and a connecting block 19 is provided on one side of the notch 18. The connecting block 19 is located between the housing 03 and the mounting column 05. One end of the connecting block 19 is integrally formed with the mounting column 05, and the other end is integrally formed with the housing 03. A through hole 20 penetrating the mounting chamber 06 is provided in the connecting block 19, and a transition hole 21 connecting the through hole 20 and the accommodating chamber is provided on one side of the connecting block 19. A waterproof connector 22 is threadedly connected to the transition hole 21. After the external cable passes through the waterproof connector 22 and the through hole 20, it enters the mounting chamber 06 and is electrically connected to the light source assembly. A sealing sleeve is provided in the through hole 20. The sealing sleeve is sleeved on the cable. Through the double sealing of the through hole 20 and the waterproof connector 22, even if the waterproof effect of the waterproof connector 22 decreases over time, the sealing material in the through hole 20 can still play a sealing effect. The waterproof and dustproof level of the above-mentioned sealing sleeve and the waterproof connector 22 is not lower than IP68.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the through hole 20 includes a sealing hole 23 connected to the installation chamber 06 and a connecting hole 24 coaxially arranged with the sealing hole 23, and the sealing hole 23 is conical. The large end of the sealing hole 23 is connected to the connecting hole 24, and the small end of the sealing hole 23 is connected to the installation chamber 06. A sealing sleeve is arranged in the sealing hole 23. The sealing sleeve is sleeved on the cable. The sealing between the cable and the sealing hole 23 is achieved. At the same time, a sealing sleeve can also be arranged in the connecting hole 24. At the same time, the sealing hole 23 is set to a cone to prevent the sealing sleeve from entering the installation chamber 06 when the cable is pulled in the installation chamber 06.

[0034] The opening of the connection hole 24 is threadedly connected with a plug 25. The plug 25 is located on the housing 03. The design of the plug 25 prevents the sealing material of the through hole 20 from contacting with water under normal conditions, and the plug 25 can also play a sealing role. At the same time, it is convenient to install the sealing sleeve.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the light source assembly includes a lamp bead 26 installed at the bottom of the installation chamber 06 by fasteners and a lens arranged directly above the lamp bead 26, a cover plate 27 is arranged on the lens, a pressure ring 28 is arranged on the top of the cover plate 27, and the pressure ring 28 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the installation chamber 06.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, both ends of the mounting bar 02 are provided with integrally formed connecting bars 29, and the connecting bars 29 abut against the side walls of the housing 03. The fasteners are threadedly connected to the connecting bars 29 through the housing 03. The mounting bar 02 is provided with a plurality of T-shaped mounting holes 30. The fasteners are passed through the mounting holes 30 to be fixedly connected to the building body.

[0037] It should be noted that, for the sake of clarity of description, the fasteners described in this application are any one of screws, bolts, and screws.

[0038] If the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0039] The above implementation modes are merely descriptions of the preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary engineering and technical personnel in the field shall fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
