[0032] The utility model provides an outdoor dimming power supply, which realizes a modular structure by dividing the dimming power supply into a connecting cavity, a first dimming cavity and a second dimming cavity. The setting of the first partition and the second partition effectively isolates the connecting cavity from the dimming cavity, thereby preventing water and dust from entering the dimming cavity from the cable entrance, affecting the performance of the light source and the lens, improving the reliability and durability of the power supply in a complex outdoor environment, and reducing equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by environmental factors. The relatively independent structure of each module enables the light source and the lens in the dimming cavity to maintain a good heat dissipation effect, and prevents performance degradation and damage caused by overheating. The cable enters the connecting cavity from the second opening, and then enters the first dimming cavity or the second dimming cavity as needed. This structure makes installation more convenient and reduces the difficulty of maintenance. When it is necessary to repair or replace components such as the light source, the lens, etc., it is only necessary to open the corresponding cavity without disassembling the entire power supply. The outdoor dimming power supply can adapt to different outdoor lighting needs, such as parks, streets, squares and other places. By adjusting the brightness and color of the first light source and the second light source, a variety of lighting effects can be achieved. Example

[0033] The utility model provides an outdoor dimming power supply, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes a main shell 100, which includes: a connecting cavity 1, the connecting cavity 1 includes a first opening 11 and a second opening 12; a first dimming cavity 2, the first dimming cavity 2 includes a first light source 21 and a first lens 22, and a first partition 3 is arranged between the first dimming cavity 2 and the connecting cavity 1; a second dimming cavity 4, the second dimming cavity 4 includes a second light source 41 and a second lens 42, and a second partition 5 is arranged between the second dimming cavity 4 and the first dimming cavity 2; the cable 6 enters the connecting cavity 1 from the second opening 12, and then enters the first dimming cavity 2 and / or the second dimming cavity 4 from the first opening 11.

[0034] In this way, by dividing the dimming power supply into the connection cavity 1, the first dimming cavity 2 and the second dimming cavity 4, a modular structure is achieved. This structure makes the functions of each part clearer and facilitates production, installation and maintenance. The modular structure also enhances the flexibility and scalability of the system. In the future, dimming cavities can be added or reduced as needed to meet different lighting needs.

[0035] The first partition 3 and the second partition 5 can effectively isolate the connection cavity 1 from the dimming cavity, thereby preventing water and dust from entering the dimming cavity from the cable 6 inlet and affecting the performance of the light source and the lens. This structure improves the reliability and durability of the power supply in complex outdoor environments and reduces equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by environmental factors.

[0036] The cable 6 enters the connection cavity 1 from the second opening 12 and then enters the first dimming cavity 2 or the second dimming cavity 4 as required. This structure makes installation more convenient and reduces the difficulty of maintenance.

[0037] When it is necessary to repair or replace components such as light sources and lenses, it is only necessary to open the corresponding cavity without disassembling the entire power supply.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, more specifically, it may be that it also includes a connector 7, which is detachably connected to the connection cavity 1. The connector 7 is a component that can be detachably connected to the connection cavity 1. The provision of the connector 7 allows the outdoor dimming power supply to be conveniently and quickly installed at a predetermined position or bracket. The connector 7 can be made of a variety of materials and structural designs, such as metal materials, plastic materials, etc., to adapt to different installation environments and requirements. The detachable structure of the connector 7 makes the installation of the outdoor dimming power supply simple and quick. The user can easily install the power supply to the specified position without using complex tools or performing cumbersome operations.

[0039] For occasions where the power supply needs to be frequently replaced or moved, the detachability of the connector 7 will greatly improve work efficiency and convenience. The setting of the connector 7 can also be customized according to different installation environments and requirements. Whether it is a wall, a bracket or other fixed structure, the power supply can be stably installed by selecting a suitable connector 7.

[0040] This adaptability enables the outdoor dimming power supply to be widely used in various outdoor lighting scenarios to meet the lighting needs of different occasions. The detachable connection between the connector 7 and the connecting cavity 1 ensures the stability of the power supply during installation. By ensuring the firmness and reliability of the connector 7, safety hazards such as loosening or falling off of the power supply due to improper installation can be avoided.

[0041] At the same time, the connector 7 can also take into account requirements such as waterproofing and dustproofing, so as to further improve the reliability and safety of the power supply in outdoor environments.

[0042] When the outdoor dimming power supply needs to be maintained or replaced, the power supply can be easily removed by disassembling the connector 7. This will greatly reduce the difficulty and cost of maintenance work and improve maintenance efficiency. At the same time, the detachability of the connector 7 also makes it easier for users to clean and maintain the power supply, extending its service life.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the connection cavity 1 may be provided with a matching portion 13, and the matching portion 13 is adapted to the connection member 7. More specifically, the matching portion 13 may be a groove or a protrusion. Among them, the connection cavity 1 may be provided with one or more grooves, and the shape, size and position of these grooves may completely match the protrusion on the connection member 7. When the connection member 7 is matched with the connection cavity 1, the protrusion on the connection member 7 will be embedded in the groove, thereby achieving a tight connection between the two. This structure not only increases the stability of the connection, but also effectively prevents the connection member 7 from loosening or falling off under vibration or external force.

[0044] In contrast to the groove, the connection cavity 1 may also be provided with one or more raised portions, and the connection member 7 may be provided with grooves that match the raised portions. When the connection member 7 is matched with the connection cavity 1, the raised portions on the connection cavity 1 will be embedded in the grooves of the connection member 7, achieving a stable connection between the two. This structure can also ensure the stability of the connection and prevent loosening or falling off.

[0045] By providing the matching portion 13, the matching between the connector 7 and the connection cavity 1 will be more accurate, and the error during the installation process will be greatly reduced, which can not only improve the installation efficiency, but also ensure the stability and reliability of the power supply after installation.

[0046] Whether it is set as a groove or a protrusion, a close fit between the connector 7 and the connection cavity 1 can be achieved, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection. This stability will ensure that the power supply can maintain stable operation in complex outdoor environments and reduce damage or failures caused by vibration or external forces.

[0047] The structure of the matching portion 13 can be adjusted and optimized according to different installation environments and requirements to adapt to different connectors 7 and installation requirements. This will make the outdoor dimming power supply more adaptable and flexible and can be widely used in various outdoor lighting scenarios.

[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, more specifically, the first light source 21 is disposed on the first partition plate 3 , and the first lens 22 is disposed opposite to the first light source 21 .

[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, more specifically, the second light source 41 is disposed on the second partition plate 5 , and the second lens 42 is disposed opposite to the second light source 41 .

[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, more specifically, the first partition plate 3 and the second partition plate 5 are vertically arranged.

[0051] In this way, since both sides of the first partition plate 3 and the second partition plate 5 are two cavities, the first light source 21 is arranged on the first partition plate 3, and the second light source 41 is arranged on the second partition plate 5, so that the light sources can have a better heat dissipation effect when working.

[0052] The existence of the partition not only provides a mounting position for the light source and the lens, but also helps to isolate and reduce the light interference and thermal interference between the two dimming cavities. The vertically arranged partition optimizes the spatial layout in the main housing 100, making the entire power supply device more compact.

[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, the first lens 22 is a curved lens or a U-shaped lens. More specifically, the first lens 22 is detachably connected to the first dimming cavity 2. Among them, the curved lens usually has a larger radius of curvature, which can effectively focus or diffuse light, and provide uniform and soft light distribution for the lighting area. The curved lens also makes it have strong impact resistance and waterproof performance, suitable for outdoor environment. The U-shaped structure of the U-shaped lens can produce a specific light distribution, such as a "wall washing" effect or emphasizing a specific area. This lens is usually used in occasions that require special lighting effects. The U-shaped lens is also impact-resistant and waterproof, suitable for outdoor environments.

[0054] The first lens 22 is detachably connected to the first dimming cavity 2, so that when the lens surface is contaminated with dust or dirt or needs to be replaced, the user can easily remove the lens for cleaning or replacement without disassembling the entire dimming cavity. This greatly simplifies the maintenance process and improves work efficiency. Users can flexibly replace different types of lenses (such as curved lenses and U-shaped lenses) according to different lighting needs to meet different lighting effects. This can increase the flexibility and adaptability of outdoor dimming power supplies. Since the lens is an independent and detachable component, when repairing or upgrading, the user only needs to replace the lens without replacing the entire dimming cavity or power supply equipment. This reduces the user's maintenance and upgrade costs.

[0055] Compared with the prior art, the outdoor dimming power supply provided by the embodiment of the utility model realizes a modular structure by dividing the dimming power supply into a connecting cavity, a first dimming cavity and a second dimming cavity. The setting of the first partition and the second partition effectively isolates the connecting cavity from the dimming cavity, thereby preventing water and dust from entering the dimming cavity from the cable entrance, affecting the performance of the light source and the lens, improving the reliability and durability of the power supply in complex outdoor environments, and reducing equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by environmental factors. The relatively independent structure of each module enables the light source and lens in the dimming cavity to maintain a good heat dissipation effect, preventing performance degradation and damage caused by overheating. The cable enters the connecting cavity from the second opening, and then enters the first dimming cavity or the second dimming cavity as needed. This structure makes installation more convenient and reduces the difficulty of maintenance. When it is necessary to repair or replace components such as the light source, lens, etc., it is only necessary to open the corresponding cavity without disassembling the entire power supply. The outdoor dimming power supply can adapt to different outdoor lighting needs, such as parks, streets, squares and other places. By adjusting the brightness and color of the first light source and the second light source, a variety of lighting effects can be achieved.

[0056] The above are only preferred specific implementations of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
