[0002] With the improvement of the luminous efficiency of the light source chip and the heat resistance of the chip itself, the requirements for heat dissipation technology of LED lamps have been greatly reduced, and the structure of PC cover and aluminum heat dissipation has gradually shifted to the structure of an integral plastic tube (PC or other plastic materials). This makes the appearance of the LED lamp more integrated, greatly improves the safety performance, and reduces the material cost. However, after using the all-plastic LED lamp for a period of time, due to the insufficient strength of the plastic material itself and the design of the circular tube structure, the all-plastic LED lamp collapses. The lamp is no longer straight and has become an arc shape, which not only affects the appearance of the lamp, but also affects the light distribution of the lamp. In addition, the shell of the existing LED lamp generally adopts an integral structure that cannot be disassembled, which increases the difficulty of assembling, maintaining and replacing the LED light strip in the shell.

[0024] Embodiment 1: A hexagonal lamp tube.

[0025] Refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a hexagonal lamp tube includes a housing with a hexagonal end face design. The housing is formed by snap-fitting and splicing an upper half shell 1 and a lower half shell 2. The upper half shell 1 and the lower half shell 2 are respectively integrally injection-molded from transparent plastic. The upper half shell 1 includes an upper half shell body 11. A horizontal support plate 12 is provided inside the upper half shell body 11. The LED light strip 5 is fixed on the horizontal support plate 12. Upper hooks 13 are provided at the left and right ends of the upper half shell body 11. An outer connecting pipe 4 is provided on the outer side of the top of the upper half shell 1. The outer connecting pipe 4 is mainly used to facilitate the overall installation of the lamp tube and also facilitate the wiring of the LED light strip 5.

[0026] The lower half shell 2 includes a lower half shell body 21. Lower hooks 22 that match the upper hooks 13 provided at the left and right ends of the upper half shell body 11 are respectively provided at the left and right ends of the lower half shell body 21. When the upper half shell 1 and the lower half shell 2 are spliced, the upper hooks 13 and the lower hooks 22 are fitted together. After the upper half shell 1 and the lower half shell 2 are spliced, they are assembled into a complete hexagonal housing. The front and rear ends of the hexagonal housing are sealed by an end cap 3.

[0027] The end cap 3 is embedded and installed on the end edge of the hexagonal housing. The embedded installation of the end cap 3 greatly facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the end cap 3. The end cap 3 includes an end cap body 31. On the inner side surface of the end cap body 31, there are T-shaped clamping posts 32. Below the T-shaped clamping posts 32, there are two parallel and spaced-apart end edge clamping posts 33. When the end cap 3 is embedded and installed on the end edge of the hexagonal housing, the T-shaped clamping posts 32 are inserted into the cavity formed by the transverse support plate 12 and the inner wall of the upper half shell body 11 in the upper half shell body 11, and the end edge clamping posts 33 are in contact with the inner wall of the upper half shell body 11. During actual assembly, the end cap 3 can be clamped tightly to the housing through the T-shaped clamping posts 32 and the end edge clamping posts 33, preventing the end cap 3 from falling off easily, but also facilitating the disassembly of the end cap 3.

[0028] This hexagonal lamp tube has a simple structure and is convenient for assembly and use. The outer shape of the housing is designed with a hexagonal structure, which can effectively reduce the deformation amount of the lamp tube in the length direction and reasonably distribute the light intensity in all directions. During actual assembly, only need to fix the LED light strip 5 on the transverse support plate 12 of the upper half shell 1, then fit and join the upper half shell 1 and the lower half shell 2 together through the upper hook 13 and the lower hook 22, and then embed the end cap 3 at the left and right ends of the housing. The assembly is very simple. Moreover, compared with the traditional circular housing, the hexagonal housing assembled by the upper half shell 1 and the lower half shell 2 has better rigidity and can effectively reduce the deformation amount of the lamp tube in the length direction. After the LED light strip 5 is assembled on the transverse support plate 12, light can be diffused through the four surfaces of the hexagonal housing and the shadow at the end edge can be prevented. The housing adopts the splicing and buckling structure of the upper half shell 1 and the lower half shell 2, which greatly facilitates the assembly, maintenance and replacement of the LED light strip 5 inside the housing.

The four hexagonal lamp tubes 100 are installed at the bottom of the mounting box 200. Two of the hexagonal lamp tubes 100 are arranged in parallel horizontally, and the other two hexagonal lamp tubes 100 are arranged in parallel vertically. Moreover, the mounting heights of the two hexagonal lamp tubes 100 arranged in parallel horizontally are different from those of the other two hexagonal lamp tubes 100 arranged in parallel vertically. By using four staggered hexagonal lamps 100, not only is the shape unique and the appearance beautiful, but also the lighting effect can be effectively broadened. The controller 300 is installed in the mounting box 200. The controller 300 is connected to the hexagonal lamp tubes 100 through a wire harness. The mounting bracket 400 is fixed to the top of the mounting box 200 by screws 500, and multiple mounting holes are provided on the mounting bracket 400.
