Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lamp connection, and specifically relates to an angle-adjustable connection head for strip lights. Background Technique
[0002] Strip lights are widely used in both indoor and outdoor areas. They can be used as main lights for illumination or as auxiliary lights to create different atmospheres. Among them, during the process of car beauty operations, in order to obtain good visibility, the lighting brightness in the operation space is required to be relatively high. Therefore, multiple strip lights are usually installed above the beauty workstations to meet the lighting needs. This requires the use of connection heads to splice each strip light, and a certain shape is formed by several strip lights.
[0003] Existing strip light connection heads, such as a tube connection structure that is easy to disassemble disclosed in a Chinese patent with the publication number CN220249812U, and a new tube connection head disclosed in a Chinese patent with the publication number CN111706832B, although they can achieve the quick splicing of strip lights, since the installation angle of their conductive copper pins is fixed, correspondingly, the angle between the two ends of the connection head housing is also fixed. Therefore, when splicing strip lights, the splicing angle of the strip lights cannot be adaptively adjusted. In order to meet the requirements of different splicing angles between strip lights, only connection heads with corresponding angles can be used for splicing, which requires the design and production of connection heads with different angles. This results in problems such as high production costs and complicated assembly processes during the production of connection heads, and it cannot meet the splicing requirements of strip lights with non-special angles other than angles such as 90°, 120°, and 180°, and the application range is very limited.

[0048] Due to the fixed installation angle of the conductive copper pins of the existing linear lamp connector and the angle between the two ends of the connector housing, there is a problem that the splicing angle of the linear lamp cannot be adaptively adjusted, and the splicing requirements of linear lamps with non-special angles cannot be met.
[0049] In response to the above problems, the present application makes improvements and innovations and proposes the following embodiments.
[0050] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-7, an angle-adjustable connector for linear lights is provided, including a male connector 1 and a female connector 2. The male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are box structures with a hollow interior. The male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are detachably connected at an adjustable angle by screws, and the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are electrically connected by a wire 3. The wire 3 is arranged in the internal cavities of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2. Thus, by using the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 with adjustable and detachable installation angles to connect with the female socket and male socket on the linear light 100 respectively, two adjacent linear lights 100 are connected end to end and powered through this connector.
[0051] In this way, when splicing the linear lights 100, the splicing angle between two adjacent linear lights 100 can be adaptively adjusted by adjusting the installation angle between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, which can meet the splicing requirements of linear lights 100 at non-special angles. The assembly is simple and the use is convenient, which can fully meet the requirements of different splicing angles between linear lights 100 and greatly expand the application range of this connector; in addition, by adjusting the installation angle between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, the splicing angle of the linear lights 100 can be adaptively adjusted, so that when manufacturing this connector, there is no need to design and produce connectors at different angles. Only a set of connector molds is needed, which effectively reduces the design and usage amount of connector molds, can effectively reduce the assembly process of connectors, can effectively reduce production costs, and improve economic benefits.
[0052] In some embodiments, the male connector 1 includes an upper male end box 11, a lower male end box 12, and a male plug 13. A first positioning groove 111 is formed at the bottom of the upper male end box 11, and a first positioning block 121 is formed at the top of the lower male end box 12. The upper male end box 11 and the lower male end box 12 are detachably fastened by screws. A first installation groove 10 is formed in the upper male end box 11 and the lower male end box 12. The male plug 13 is clamped in the first installation groove 10, and the male plug 13 is used to electrically connect with the female socket on the linear light 100. Thus, the fastening connection between the upper male end box 11 and the lower male end box 12 can be positioned by the cooperation of the first positioning groove 111 and the first positioning block 121 and locked by screws. At the same time, the male plug 13 is stably installed by the fastening of the upper male end box 11 and the lower male end box 12.
[0053] The female connector 2 includes a female end upper box 21, a female end lower box 22, and a female plug 23. A second positioning block 211 is constructed at the bottom of the female end upper box 21, and a second positioning groove 221 is constructed at the top of the female end lower box 22. The female end upper box 21 and the female end lower box 22 are detachably fastened and connected by screws. A second installation groove 20 is constructed inside the female end upper box 21 and the female end lower box 22. The female plug 23 is clamped in the second installation groove 20, and the female plug 23 is used for electrical connection with the male socket on the strip light 100. Thus, the fastening connection between the female end upper box 21 and the female end lower box 22 can be positioned through the cooperation of the second positioning block 211 and the second positioning groove 221, and locked by screws. At the same time, the female plug 23 is stably installed through the fastening of the female end upper box 21 and the female end lower box 22.
[0054] Among them, the male plug 13 includes a male pin bracket 131, male copper pins 132, and a first annular terminal 133. The male pin bracket 131 is clamped in the first installation groove 10, the male copper pins 132 are fixedly installed on the male pin bracket 131, and the first annular terminal 133 is installed on the male copper pins 132 and electrically connected to the male copper pins 132. The female plug 23 includes a female pin bracket 231, female copper pins 232, and a second annular terminal 233. The female pin bracket 231 is clamped in the second installation groove 20, the female copper pins 232 are fixedly installed inside the female pin bracket 231, and the second annular terminal 233 is installed on the female copper pins 232 and electrically connected to the female copper pins 232. The first annular terminal 133 and the second annular terminal 233 are electrically connected by a wire 3, and the wire 3 is arranged in the internal cavity formed by the fastening of the male end upper box 11 and the male end lower box 12, and the female end upper box 21 and the female end lower box 22. In this way, by electrically connecting the first annular terminal 133 and the second annular terminal 233 through the wire 3, the electrical connection between the male plug 13 and the female plug 23 in this connector can be realized, so as to meet the electrical connection between adjacent strip lights 100. In specific applications, the number of copper pins in the male plug 13 and the female plug 23 can be adaptively adjusted according to the structure of the strip light 100.
[0055] In this embodiment, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 adopt a split-type fastening connection structure of an upper box and a lower box, which is convenient for threading the wire 3 located between the male plug 13 and the female plug 23, and the upper box and the lower box are locked by screws, with reliable installation and stable structure. Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, Figure 4 the dotted line in [figure] is a schematic diagram of the threading path of the wire 3.
[0056] In some embodiments, the installation angle of the male connector 1 relative to the female connector 2 is adjustable within the range of 90° - 270°, so as to meet the requirement that the installation angles of two adjacent linear lights 100 can be adjusted within the range of 90° - 270°. Specifically, at the bottom of the male end upper box 11, away from one end of the male plug 13, a number of downwardly protruding first clamping blocks 112 are annularly arrayed. At the top of the female end upper box 21, away from one end of the female plug 23, a number of downwardly concave first clamping holes 212 are annularly arrayed. The male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are detachably connected in an angle-adjustable manner through the cooperation of the first clamping blocks 112 and the first clamping holes 212. In this way, by rotating the male connector 1 or the female connector 2 to insert the first clamping blocks 112 into different first clamping holes 212, the angle adjustment between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be realized, and the circumferential positioning of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be carried out through the cooperation of the first clamping blocks 112 and the first clamping holes 212. Subsequently, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are locked with screws to lock and fix the connector head with the adjusted angle.
[0057] In this embodiment, the first clamping blocks 112 on the male end upper box 11 are arrayed within at least 180°, and the first clamping holes 212 on the female end upper box 21 are arrayed corresponding to the first clamping blocks 112 within 360°. In this way, on the premise of ensuring that the cooperation of the first clamping blocks 112 and the first clamping holes 212 can firmly connect the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, the number of configured first clamping blocks 112 can be reduced, which is convenient for the quick clamping of the first clamping blocks 112 and the first clamping holes 212, and can effectively save the use of materials to improve economic benefits.
[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment, twenty-four first clamping holes 212 are annularly arrayed on the female end upper box 21 within 360°, and the included angle between two adjacent first clamping holes 212 is 15°. Correspondingly, thirteen first clamping blocks 112 are annularly arrayed on the male end upper box 11 within 180°, and the included angle between two adjacent first clamping blocks 112 is 15°. In this layout, any multiple of 15° within the range of 90° - 270° is the adjustable angle between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, effectively expanding the adjustable splicing angle of the linear light 100 and meeting the splicing requirements of the linear light 100 with non-special angles. In specific applications, the adjustable angle can also be adjusted by changing the included angle between two adjacent first clamping holes 212. As Figure 5 shown, Figure 5 shows the states of the installation angles of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 being 180°, 90°, 270°, 120°, and 135° respectively; as Figure 6 , Figure 7 shown, Figure 6 shows the installation states when four linear lights 100 are spliced into a rectangle through this connector head, Figure 7The installation state when six linear lights 100 are spliced into a hexagon through this connector is shown.
[0059] In some embodiments, a first angle mark 113 is provided on the male end upper box 11, and a first direction mark 213 pointing to the first angle mark 113 is correspondingly provided on the female end upper box 21. In this way, by setting the first angle mark 113 and the first direction mark 213 as visual angle adjustment marks, the angle of the male connector 1 relative to the female connector 2 can be adjusted through the cooperation of the first direction mark 213 provided on the female end upper box 21 and the first angle mark 113 provided on the male end upper box 11.
[0060] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 8-16 , at least one extension connector 4 is further connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2. The extension connector 4 is a hollow box structure facilitating the threading of the wire 3. The two ends of the extension connector 4 are respectively detachably connected to the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 in an angle-adjustable manner by screws, and two adjacent extension connectors 4 are sequentially connected end to end in an angle-adjustable and detachable manner by screws.
[0061] In this way, by additionally connecting at least one extension connector 4 between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, when splicing the linear lights 100, the splicing angle between two adjacent linear lights 100 can be further adaptively adjusted by adjusting the installation angle between the extension connector 4 and the female connector 2 and the installation angle between the male connector 1 and the extension connector 4. By adding the extension connector 4, the distance between two adjacent linear lights 100 can be extended, and at the same time, the adjustable range of the installation angle between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be further increased, further meeting the requirements of different splicing angles between the linear lights 100, and further expanding the application range of this connector.
[0062] Specifically, when one extension connector 4 is connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, the installation angle of the extension connector 4 relative to the female connector 2 is adjustable within the range of 90° - 270°, and the installation angle of the male connector 1 relative to the extension connector 4 is adjustable within the range of 90° - 270°. In this way, by respectively adjusting the combination of the installation angle between the extension connector 4 and the female connector 2 and the installation angle between the male connector 1 and the extension connector 4, the installation angle of the male connector 1 relative to the female connector 2 can be adjusted within the range of 0° - 360°, so as to meet the requirement that the installation angles of two adjacent linear lights 100 can be adjusted within the range of 0° - 360°. As Figure 12 shown, Figure 12 the states when the installation angles of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are 180°, 0°, 60°, 90°, 270°, and 180° respectively are shown; as Figure 13 shown,Figure 13 The installation state when three linear lights 100 are spliced into an equilateral triangle through this connector is shown.
[0063] In specific applications, when selecting the installation angle between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, the width limit of the linear light 100 needs to be considered. When the included angle between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 is 0°, if the distance between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 cannot meet the installation of two linear lights 100, the distance between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be increased by selecting a longer extension connector 4 or installing two or more extension connectors 4 additionally, so as to meet the installation requirement of adjacent two linear lights 100 in the form of an included angle of 0°.
[0064] Specifically, when two or more extension connectors 4 are connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, the installation angle of the extension connector 4 relative to the female connector 2 is adjustable within the range of 90° - 270°, the installation angle of the latter extension connector 4 relative to the former extension connector 4 is adjustable within the range of 90° - 270°, and the installation angle of the male connector 1 relative to the extension connector 4 is adjustable within the range of 90° - 270°. In this way, by respectively adjusting the combination of the installation angle between the extension connector 4 and the female connector 2, the installation angle between the latter extension connector 4 and the former extension connector 4, and the installation angle between the male connector 1 and the extension connector 4, the installation angle of the male connector 1 relative to the female connector 2 can be adjusted within the range of 0° - 360°, so as to meet the installation angle of adjacent two linear lights 100 can be adjusted within the range of 0° - 360°; specifically, when two or more extension connectors 4 are connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 according to the width of the linear light 100, the distance between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can meet the installation requirement of adjacent two linear lights 100 in the form of an included angle of 0°, that is, it can meet the installation angle of adjacent two linear lights 100 can be adjusted within the range of 0° - 360°. As Figure 14 shown, Figure 14 the state when adjacent two linear lights 100 are installed in the form of an included angle of 0° through this connector is shown, as Figure 15 shown, Figure 15 the state of partial installation angles when two extension connectors 4 are connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 is shown; as Figure 16 shown, Figure 16 the state of partial installation angles when three extension connectors 4 are connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 is shown; in specific applications, multiple extension connectors 4 can also be connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 according to the width and installation shape requirements of the linear light 100.
[0065] In some embodiments, the extension connector 4 includes an upper extension box 41 and a lower extension box 42. Third positioning blocks 411 are symmetrically formed on the front and rear inner side walls at both ends of the upper extension box 41. The upper extension box 41 and the lower extension box 42 are detachably snap-connected by screws. When an extension connector 4 is connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, the wire 3 is threaded through the internal cavity formed by the snap-connection of the upper extension box 41 and the lower extension box 42. Thus, when the upper extension box 41 and the lower extension box 42 are snap-connected, the third positioning blocks 411 on the upper extension box 41 abut against the upper end surface of the lower extension box 42, thereby positioning the snap-connection of the upper extension box 41 and the lower extension box 42 through the third positioning blocks 411; corresponding to the split structure of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, the extension connector 4 also adopts an upper box and lower box structure with split snap-connection, which facilitates threading the wire 3 located between the male plug 13 and the female plug 23, and locking the upper box and the lower box with screws, ensuring reliable installation and stable structure; specifically, as Figure 11 shown, Figure 11 the dotted line in the figure indicates the threading path of the wire 3.
[0066] In some embodiments, at one end of the upper extension box 41 connected to the male connector 1, a second card hole 412 is formed that is consistent with the first card hole 212 on the upper box of the female end 21. At one end of the upper extension box 41 connected to the female connector 2, a second card block 413 is formed that is consistent with the first card block 112 on the upper box of the male end 11. Thus, when an extension connector 4 is connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, at one end of the extension connector 4 connected to the male connector 1, it is detachably connected to the male connector 1 through the cooperation of the first card block 112 and the second card hole 412 and is angle-adjustable by screws. At one end of the extension connector 4 connected to the female connector 2, it is detachably connected to the female connector 2 through the cooperation of the second card block 413 and the first card hole 212 and is angle-adjustable by screws; correspondingly, when two or more extension connectors 4 are connected between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, two adjacent extension connectors 4 are sequentially connected end to end through the cooperation of the second card block 413 and the second card hole 412 and are angle-adjustable and detachably connected by screws.
[0067] On the upper surface of one end of the extension upper box 41 connected to the female connector 2, a second angle mark 414 is provided. On the upper surface of one end of the extension upper box 41 connected to the male connector 1, a second direction mark 415 is provided. Thus, by providing the second angle mark 414 and the second direction mark 415 as visual angle adjustment marks, the angle of the extension connector 4 relative to the female connector 2 can be adjusted through the cooperation of the first direction mark 213 provided on the female end upper box 21 and the second angle mark 414 on the extension upper box 41. The angle of the male connector 1 relative to the extension connector 4 can be adjusted through the cooperation of the second direction mark 415 provided on the extension upper box 41 and the first angle mark 113 on the male end upper box 11.
[0068] Finally, it should also be noted that although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those of ordinary skill in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention, and all of them should be included within the protection scope of this application.
