Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of lamps, in particular to a split-foldable drive box. Background Art

[0002] The drive box is an essential component in lamps. During daily lamp installation, one lamp corresponds to one drive box. The lamp is electrically connected to an external power supply through a wire, and is also electrically connected to the lamp or other lamps through a wire to enable the lamp to work. Currently, the drive box has a single box structure, and a lamp board and a power module are installed inside the box structure, resulting in a relatively large and thick overall volume of the drive box. Therefore, it is difficult for the drive box to be inserted into a ceiling with a small opening and a small internal height, which limits the installation environment of the drive box and affects the practicality of the drive box. Therefore, in order to avoid the disadvantages existing in the prior art, it is necessary to improve the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the split - type folding drive box includes a drive box assembly. The drive box assembly includes a first drive box 1 and a second drive box 2. A connecting member 3 is provided between the opposite end walls of the first drive box 1 and the second drive box 2. The first drive box 1 and the second drive box 2 are rotatably hinged to each other through the connecting member 3.

[0027] This drive box assembly is composed of two parts, namely the first drive box 1 and the second drive box 2. During installation, one of the drive boxes can be flipped and folded relative to the other drive box to any angle, which is convenient for inserting into a ceiling with a small opening and a small internal height. Its structure is simple, compact, and the installation difficulty is low.

[0028] A flexible tube 4 is connected between the opposite end walls of the first drive box 1 and the second drive box 2. A wire threading channel 401 communicating with the inner cavity of the first drive box 1 and the inner cavity of the second drive box 2 is provided in the flexible tube 4; enabling wire threading between the first drive box 1 and the second drive box 2 through the wire threading channel 401, and the flexible tube 4 can be bent arbitrarily to adapt to the folding angle between the first drive box 1 and the second drive box 2.

[0029] In this embodiment, the flexible tube 4 includes a first joint 41, a second joint 42, and a corrugated tube 43. The first joint 41 is assembled and connected to the middle of the end wall of the first drive box 1, the second joint 42 is assembled and connected to the middle of the end wall of the second drive box 2, and both ends of the corrugated tube 43 are respectively connected to the first joint 41 and the second joint 42.

[0030] In more embodiments, the corrugated tube 43 can be replaced with an elastic hose.

[0031] The connecting member 3 includes a connecting piece 31. One end side of the first driving box 1 is hinged to one end of the connecting piece 31, and one end side of the second driving box 2 is hinged to the other end of the connecting piece 31.

[0032] The connecting member 3 further includes connecting lugs 32. The connecting lugs 32 are fixed on the end walls of the first driving box 1 and the second driving box 2 and are arranged close to the bottom side of the box. The first driving box 1 and the second driving box 2 are respectively hinged to the connecting piece 31 through the connecting lugs 32.

[0033] A pair of connecting lugs 32 are fixed on each end wall of the first driving box 1 and the second driving box 2. The pair of connecting lugs 32 are arranged on the side edges of their respective end walls. And the connecting lugs 32 are arranged inside the connecting piece 31 and are hinged to each other by rivets 33 riveted from the outside to the inside.

[0034] The above-mentioned connecting member 3 is composed of a connecting piece 31 and connecting lugs 32, and is hinged to the first driving box 1 and the second driving box 2, enabling the first driving box 1 and the second driving box 2 to be completely folded in half. The bottom of the first driving box 1 abuts against the bottom of the second driving box 2, which can save the space for packaging and transportation.

[0035] The first driving box 1 and the second driving box 2 have the same width; the length of the first driving box 1 is greater than or equal to the length of the second driving box 2; the height of the second driving box 2 is greater than or equal to the height of the first driving box 1; the first driving box 1 and the second driving box 2 with the same width can be inserted into a ceiling with a smaller opening and a smaller internal height.

[0036] As Figures 5 to 8 shown, the first driving box 1 includes a first box body 11 and a first box cover 12. A plurality of buckling elastic pieces 13 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the box edge of the first box body 11. The cover edge of the first box cover 12 is provided with buckling openings 14 corresponding to the buckling elastic pieces 13. By buckling the buckling elastic pieces 13 with the buckling openings 14, the first box cover 12 is detachably covered on the first box body 11 and encloses and defines a first inner cavity; this type of first box cover 12 is disassembled and assembled in a quick-release manner, with a simple structure and convenient disassembly and assembly.

[0037] In addition, in this embodiment, a U-shaped lead-out groove 111 is opened on the end wall of the first box body 11 far from the second driving box 2. After the first box cover 12 is covered on the first box body 11, the lead-out groove 111 forms a lead-out hole 15, and the lead-out hole 15 can lead the wire out of the first inner cavity.

[0038] Among them, a lamp board 5 is arranged in the first inner cavity, and the led-out wire is mainly electrically connected to the lamp board 5.

[0039] The second drive box 2 includes a second box body 21 and a second box cover 22. The second box cover 22 is rotatably hinged to the edge of the second box body 21 on the side far from the first drive box 1. On the side of the second box cover 22 close to the first drive box 1, there is a concave buckle 23, and the corresponding convex buckle 24 is provided on the edge of the second box body 21 for the concave buckle 23. By buckling the concave buckle 23 and the convex buckle 24, the second box cover 22 is flip - type covered on the second box body 21 and encloses and defines a second inner cavity. This second box cover 22 is connected by means of hinge and snap connection to achieve flipping and buckling, with a simple structure and convenient installation and disassembly.

[0040] In addition, except for the end wall of the second box body 21 opposite to the first drive box 1, wire outlet holes 211 are provided on both side walls and the other end wall. An easily - detachable shielding piece 212 is arranged in the wire outlet holes 211. The easily - detachable shielding piece 212 is connected to the second box body 21 through a break - off notch 213, and a slotted opening 214 is provided on the easily - detachable shielding piece 212. When the wire outlet holes 211 are not in use, the easily - detachable shielding piece 212 maintains the integrity of the second box body 21. After breaking off the easily - detachable shielding piece 212, a completely open wire outlet hole 211 is formed, enabling the wire to be led out in any one of multiple directions. And a hanging hole 215 is provided on the bottom wall of the second box body 21.

[0041] A power module electrically connected to the lamp board 5 is arranged in the second inner cavity.

[0042] A control switch is also arranged in the first inner cavity. The control switch includes a multi - stage switch 51 and an adjustment switch 52. The multi - stage switch 51 is electrically connected to the lamp board 5 through a wire, and the adjustment switch 52 is welded on the lamp board 5 and electrically connected to the lamp board 5.

[0043] The key 501 of the multi - stage switch 51 passes through the end wall of the first box body 11 and extends outside the first drive box 1. The key 501 of the adjustment switch 52 passes through the first box cover 12 and extends outside the first drive box 1. And a box - cover groove 121 is concavely provided on the first box cover 12 corresponding to the key 501 of the adjustment switch 52. The box - cover groove 121 exposes the key 501 of the adjustment switch 52 more outside the first box cover 12.

[0044] In addition, in this embodiment, the first box body 11, the first box cover 12, the second box body 21, and the second box cover 22 are all made by stamping and bending a single metal plate.
