Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lamps, in particular to a pull-rope lantern. Background Art

[0002] Lanterns, as a traditional lighting tool, have evolved from traditional candlelight lighting to existing bulb lighting. For example, the Chinese patent application with application number: CN202220362999.4, entitled: "A detachable decorative lantern". The main structure of the lantern includes an upper cover, a lower cover, a support column and a lantern frame arranged between the upper cover and the lower cover. When installing, the support column needs to be plugged between the upper cover and the lower cover first, and then the lantern frame needs to be plugged into the corresponding connection holes on the upper cover and the lower cover. The installation method is relatively cumbersome and the assembly efficiency is low. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a pull-rope lantern, which solves the problem that the existing lanterns are relatively complicated to assemble and have low assembly efficiency.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a pull-rope lantern, including a supporting tube, an upper cover arranged at the upper end of the supporting tube and a lower cover arranged at the lower end of the supporting tube, both the upper cover and the lower cover are provided with hooks, and the lantern also includes a connecting rope, which cooperates with the hook to fasten the upper cover and the lower cover to the supporting tube.

[0005] Furthermore, a plurality of hooks are provided around the end surfaces of the upper cover and the lower cover that are away from each other, and the connecting ropes are wound around the hooks accordingly.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, a hook ring is arranged on the circumference of the upper cover and the lower cover, and then a connecting rope is wrapped around the hook to tighten the upper cover, the lower cover and the support tube, and the installation method is relatively convenient.

[0007] Furthermore, the connecting rope is in a "bow" shape and is connected to the hooks of the upper cover and the lower cover in sequence, or the connecting rope is in a ring structure, and the two ends of the ring are correspondingly tightened on the hooks of the upper cover and the lower cover.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the "bow" winding method of the connecting rope only requires one connecting rope to complete the assembly of the lantern, which reduces the composition of the lantern parts. At the same time, the winding method makes the connecting rope lines smooth and beautiful, adding extra visual appeal to the lantern, especially on lanterns made of transparent or translucent materials. Such a knot design can also become one of the decorative elements, enhancing the overall artistic effect. At the same time, the connecting rope forms a tensioned state between the upper cover and the lower cover of the lantern. This layout increases the friction and restraint between the various parts of the lantern. Even when encountering slight external forces (such as wind blowing, accidental bumps), it can ensure that the lantern structure is stable and not easy to loosen, thereby improving the overall durability. The closed-loop connecting rope does not require a complex winding method. It only needs to set the two ends of the connecting rope on the corresponding hooks of the upper cover and the lower cover to conveniently complete the tightening assembly of the lantern.

[0009] Furthermore, a limiting ring is provided at the joint between the upper cover and the lower cover and the support tube, and an insertion connection is formed between the limiting ring and the support tube.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting ring can prevent the radial position of the upper cover, the lower cover and the support tube from shifting along the support tube after they are tightened, thereby effectively enhancing the structural stability of the three after being tightened by the connecting rope.

[0011] Furthermore, the limiting ring includes an insert ring and a bottom ring, the insert ring is connected to the upper cover or the lower cover through the bottom ring, the insert ring is plugged into the support tube, and the bottom ring is abutted against the end of the support tube.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the insertion rod is plugged into the support tube to limit its radial direction, and the bottom ring is used to improve the sealing performance of the connection between the upper cover, the lower cover and the support tube after they are combined.

[0013] Furthermore, the limiting ring includes an outer ring and an inner ring, an annular groove is formed between the outer ring and the inner ring, and the end of the supporting tube is correspondingly inserted into the annular groove.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the annular groove can also achieve the above-mentioned limiting and sealing effects.

[0015] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs are provided on the outer periphery of the limiting ring and between the upper cover and the lower cover.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the provision of reinforcing ribs helps to improve the structural strength of the upper cover and the lower cover.

[0017] Furthermore, both the upper cover and the lower cover are provided with limiting grooves for accommodating the connecting rope.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the limiting groove, the connecting rope clamped on the upper cover and the lower cover can be limited and stored, so as to improve the aesthetics of the product and also limit and stabilize the connecting rope.

[0019] Furthermore, the limiting grooves are distributed along the radial direction of the upper cover and the radial direction of the lower cover.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting grooves are distributed along the radial direction of the upper cover and the lower cover, which is consistent with the position arrangement of the connecting rope wrapped between the upper cover and the lower cover.

[0021] Furthermore, the connecting rope is made of elastic material.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic material can automatically adjust the tension according to the change of the distance between the connecting parts, which means that during installation or use, even if the upper cover and the lower cover of the lantern move slightly, the elastic material can maintain a proper tightening state and will not cause structural instability or damage due to over-tightening or over-loosening;

[0023] The elastic material can absorb a certain amount of vibration and swaying, reduce the impact on the hanging point or the hand-held part, and improve the comfort during use. At the same time, the ductility of the elastic material makes it easier and quicker to fix and unlock the upper and lower covers of the lantern. Users can easily complete the operation without complicated tools or skills, which improves the convenience of use. When stretched and recovered, the elastic material can evenly disperse the force, reduce the wear on the connection parts, and extend the overall service life of the lantern.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are:

[0025] 1. In the utility model, through the design of the hooks and connecting ropes on the upper cover and the lower cover, the user can easily fix the upper cover and the lower cover on the support tube or remove them from the support tube without complicated tools, which is convenient for the assembly, disassembly and maintenance of the lantern. At the same time, the coordinated use of the hooks and the connecting ropes arranged on the upper cover and the lower cover can ensure that the upper cover and the lower cover are stably fastened to the two ends of the support tube, so that the lantern structure is relatively stable and the risk of tipping over or falling apart is reduced.

[0026] 2. In the utility model, the upper cover, the support tube and the lower cover are conveniently assembled by connecting ropes. In actual use, the tightness between the upper cover and the lower cover can be adjusted by connecting ropes, and the support tubes of different lengths can be conveniently replaced to achieve the purpose of conveniently adapting to the assembly of lanterns of different heights and realizing convenient adjustment of the height of the lantern.

[0035] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and 4 The lantern includes a main body 100, which includes a support tube 120, an upper cover 110 arranged at the upper end of the support tube 120 and a lower cover 130 arranged at the lower end of the support tube 120. The support tube 120 is made of a light-transmitting material to facilitate the placement of a light source therein. Its shape can be a cylindrical structure, or a rectangular structure, etc. The shape of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 can be annular or other shapes. The structures of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 can be the same or different. The following takes the example of both being annular discs. The upper end surface of the upper cover 110 and the lower end surface of the lower cover 130 are both ring-shaped. A hook 102 is provided around the upper end surface of the upper cover 110 and the lower end surface of the lower cover 130. The lantern also includes a connecting rope 200. The connecting rope 200 is wound around the hook 102 to cooperate with the hook 102, and then the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 are tightened by the connecting rope 200 to fasten the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 to the support tube 120, thereby realizing the assembly of the lantern.

[0037] In this embodiment, through the cooperation of the hook 102 and the connecting rope 200, the user can easily fix the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 on the support tube 120 or remove them from the support tube 120 without complicated tools, which is convenient for the assembly, disassembly and maintenance of the lantern. At the same time, the cooperation of the hook 102 arranged on the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 and the connecting rope 200 can ensure that the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 are stably fastened to the two ends of the support tube 120, so that the lantern structure is relatively stable and the risk of tipping over or falling apart is reduced.

[0038] In this embodiment, the shape of the hook 200 can be a bent protrusion provided on the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120, and its bending direction is toward the annular center direction of the upper cover 110. The hook 200 can also be a protrusion. As long as it can facilitate the winding and cooperation of the connecting rope 200, it can also be other shapes. For example, a groove can be provided on the end faces of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120, and the opening part of the groove is provided with a horizontal protrusion, and a space for accommodating the connecting rope 200 is formed between the horizontal protrusion and the groove.

[0039] As an embodiment of the connecting rope 200, the connecting rope 200 can be a single belt, which is wound around the hook 102 of the upper cover 110 and the hook 102 of the lower cover 130 in sequence through a "bow"-shaped winding method, thereby fastening the upper cover 110, the support tube 120 and the lower cover 130 together.

[0040] As another embodiment of the connecting rope 200, the connecting rope 200 can also be a ring structure, one end of the ring is hooked on the hook 102 of the upper cover 110, and the other end is hooked on the hook 102 of the lower cover 130. In this way, the lantern can be assembled through multiple connecting ropes 200.

[0041] Based on the above embodiment, preferably, the connecting rope 200 is made of elastic material, that is, an elastic band, or can be made of non-elastic material. The elastic band has a certain elastic extension force, which has the following effects:

[0042] The elastic band can automatically adjust the tension according to the change in the distance between the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130, which means that during installation or use, even if the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 of the lantern move slightly, the elastic band can maintain a proper tightening state and will not cause structural instability or damage due to being too tight or too loose;

[0043] The elastic band can absorb certain vibrations and swings, reduce the impact on the hanging point or the hand-held part, and improve the comfort during use. At the same time, the ductility of the elastic band makes it easier and quicker to fix and unlock the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 of the lantern. Users can easily complete the operation without complicated tools or skills, which improves the convenience of use. When the elastic band is stretched and restored, it can evenly disperse the force, reduce the wear on the connection parts, and extend the overall service life of the lantern.

[0044] Based on the above embodiments, refer to Figure 2 A through hole is provided at the center of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130. The through hole is provided to facilitate manually placing the light source inside the support tube 120, and a plurality of hooks 102 corresponding to the spacer rings are provided in the circumference of the through hole. In this way, after the plurality of hooks 102 are wrapped by the connecting rope 200, the fastening effect of the connecting rope 200 on the upper cover 110, the support tube 120 and the lower cover 130 can be effectively enhanced.

[0045] Based on the above embodiments, further, both the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 are provided with a limiting groove 103. The setting of the limiting groove 103 facilitates the storage and limiting of the connecting rope 200, thereby preventing the connecting rope 200 from rolling when it is connected to the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 when the lantern is fixed. At the same time, the setting of the limiting groove 103 also facilitates the hiding of the connecting rope 200 on the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130, which not only protects the connecting rope 200, but also serves the purpose of aesthetics.

[0046] Furthermore, due to different winding methods, when the connecting rope 200 is wound in a "bow" shape, its limiting groove 103 is preferably distributed radially along the upper cover 110 to match the distribution direction of the connecting rope 200. When the connecting rope 200 and the hook 102 between the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 adopt other winding methods, the corresponding limiting groove 103 may not be distributed radially along the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130.

[0047] In order to further improve the stability of the upper cover 110, the support tube 120 and the lower cover 130 when they are fastened and fixed by the connecting rope 200, a limiting ring 101 is provided on the connecting end surface of the upper cover 110, the lower cover 130 and the support tube 120, and the support tube 120 is correspondingly plugged into the limiting ring 101, and then the limiting ring 101 is plugged into the support tube 120 to limit the displacement of the support tube 120 along its radial direction between the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130, thereby greatly improving the structural stability of the lantern after assembly.

[0048] As an embodiment of the limiting ring 101, refer to Figure 2 and 3 The limiting ring 101 includes an insert ring 1011 and a bottom ring 1012 (because the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 have the same structure, the lower cover 130 is taken as an example below), the diameter of the bottom ring 1012 is larger than that of the insert ring 1011, and the outer diameter of the insert ring 1011 is the same as the inner diameter of the support tube 120. After the insert ring 1011 is plugged into the support tube 120, the end of the support tube 120 abuts against the bottom ring 1012, and then the plug-in cooperation between the insert ring 1011 and the support tube 120 is utilized to fix the support tube 120 in its radial direction, which effectively improves the structural stability of the lantern after assembly, and the abutment between the bottom ring 1012 and the end of the support tube 120 can improve the sealing of the connection between the two.

[0049] In this embodiment, as long as the plug ring 1011 is plugged into the support tube 120 and can limit the support tube 120 and the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130, the inner diameter of the plug ring 1011 can also be the same as the outer diameter of the support tube 120, that is, the support tube 120 can be inserted into the inside of the plug ring 1011.

[0050] As another embodiment of the limit ring 101 (not provided with drawings), the limit ring 101 includes an outer ring and an inner ring, and an annular groove matching the shape of the end of the support tube 120 is formed between the outer ring and the inner ring. The end of the support tube 120 is correspondingly inserted into the annular groove, which can also achieve the above-mentioned stable structure and sealing effect.

[0051] Of course, in this embodiment, the limiting ring 101 may also be provided with only a single ring. Taking the embodiment of the plug-in ring 1011 and the bottom ring 1012 as an example, the limiting ring 101 is provided with only one plug-in ring 1011, which can limit the support tube 120 by plugging the plug-in ring 1011 with the support tube 120. The bottom ring 1012 is provided only to facilitate the abutment between the lower cover 130 and the end of the support tube 120.

[0052] In this embodiment, the shape of the limiting ring 101 is not limited to a literal annular structure. As long as its shape can limit the support tube 120 in its radial direction to improve the connection stability among the upper cover 110, the support tube 120 and the lower cover 130, the limiting ring 101 can also be other shapes. For example, when the support tube 120 is a rectangular structure, the support tube 120 is also a rectangular structure. It can be a continuous annular structure or a plurality of inserted rods arranged at intervals. The plurality of inserted rods are arranged to form a rectangular shape that matches the shape of the support tube 120, which can also enhance the stability effect between the support tube 120 and the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130. Of course, it can also be other shapes, which will not be described one by one here.

[0053] Based on the above embodiment, in order to improve the structural strength of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 130 , reinforcing ribs 104 are provided around the limiting ring 101 , the lower cover 130 and the upper cover 110 .

[0054] Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above, it should be clearly understood that the present invention may be modified and varied by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent substitution, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
