Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lighting fixtures, in particular to a power supply box that optimizes the production process and improves the protection strength. Background Technique
[0002] In order to supply power to the embedded downlight category, it is necessary to assemble the power supply box when the embedded downlight is assembled at the use site. As Figure 1 shown, the existing embedded downlight category generally uses two upper and lower plastic inner shells 3 to fix the power supply board 9 to protect the power supply board, and then uses a structure in which the metal bottom shell 1 and the metal upper cover 4 are cooperatively wrapped. This power supply box structure requires many accessories during assembly, thus increasing the assembly process of the power supply box and reducing the assembly efficiency of the power supply box;
[0003] Another existing embedded downlight category uses a plastic inner shell 3 buckled on the inner shell clamping position 7 at the bottom of the metal bottom shell 1, resulting in a structure in which the outer inclined clamping plate 10 is exposed after being buckled with the inner shell clamping position 7. Among them, the power supply board 9 is fixed on the plastic inner shell 3 (as Figure 2 shown), and the clamping position of this structure is easily damaged outside the metal shell, and the plastic inner shell cannot be fixed on the metal shell, resulting in the power supply board losing protection;
[0004] Moreover, for the above two existing metal shell bending and splicing structures, the bending overlap protects the front and back directions of the shell, and the left and right directions have insufficient support strength. The installation of the plastic inner shell will cause the left and right sides of the metal shell to be squeezed, and there is a phenomenon that the metal shell is squeezed and turned out of shape by the plastic inner shell. At the same time, the anti-drop performance is poor, and it is necessary to thicken the metal sheet metal thickness to ensure the strength.
[0005] Therefore, the utility model provides a power supply box that optimizes the production process and increases the protection strength. Content of the Utility Model
[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a power supply box that optimizes the production process and improves the protection strength, so as to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0008] A power supply box that optimizes the production process and improves the protection strength, including a metal bottom shell with a power supply installation position inside, a plastic inner shell arranged inside the metal bottom shell, and a metal upper cover that cooperates with the metal bottom shell to cover the plastic inner shell. A limit clamping edge is arranged on the inner side of the top end of the metal bottom shell, and an inner shell clamping position and an upper cover buckle are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the limit clamping edge corresponding to the power supply installation position;
[0009] A power board is embedded in the installation groove of the plastic inner shell, and the left and right sides of the top of the plastic inner shell are respectively provided with outer inclined clamping plates that are clamped with the inner shell clamping position, and the plastic inner shell is embedded in the power installation position and is clamped and fixed with the inner shell clamping position through the outer inclined clamping plates;
[0010] Two buckle grooves on the left and right sides of the metal upper cover are buckled with the upper cover buckles and cover the upper part of the plastic inner shell and are fixed to the metal bottom shell.
[0011] Furthermore, there are two upper cover buckles on each side of the limit clamping edge, and the two upper cover buckles are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides opposite to the inner shell clamping position. The upper cover buckles are buckled with the two buckle grooves on the metal upper cover to achieve the purpose of quickly fixing the metal upper cover on the metal bottom shell.
[0012] Furthermore, the width of the outer side of the limiting card edge and the outer surface of the metal bottom shell is consistent with the thickness of the metal upper cover, the inner side of the metal upper cover and the limiting card edge and the outer surface of the metal upper cover and the outer surface of the metal bottom shell are on the same plane, the limiting card edge is inserted into the inner side of the metal upper cover, and while the metal bottom shell supports the metal upper cover, the outer side of the metal upper cover and the outer surface of the metal bottom shell are on the same plane, thereby maintaining the smoothness of the outer surface after the metal upper cover and the metal bottom shell are connected.
[0013] Furthermore, a groove is provided on one side where the plastic inner shell and the metal bottom shell are bonded, and an observation window is provided on the metal bottom shell corresponding to the groove, through which the status of the power board in the plastic inner shell can be checked, and the groove is a avoidance notch for the observation window.
[0014] Furthermore, the metal bottom shell includes a U-shaped base and two side panels respectively provided at the front and rear ends of the base, and docking slots are respectively provided in the middle of the two sides of the front and rear ends of the base, and two L-shaped bent edges on the left and right sides of the side panels are engaged with the docking slots. The L-shaped bent edges are inserted into the docking slots as the side panels and the base are assembled, thereby achieving the purpose of quick assembly of the metal bottom shell. At the same time, the left and right sides of the metal bottom shell are strengthened and fixed through the cooperation of the L-shaped bent edges and the docking slots, thereby avoiding the problem of deformation of the metal bottom shell caused by tension on the left and right sides of the metal bottom shell when the plastic inner shell is inserted into the power supply installation position.
[0015] Furthermore, the outer surface of the L-shaped bent edge is embedded in the docking slot to maintain the neatness of the outer surface of the metal bottom shell and prevent the L-shaped bent edge from protruding from the surface of the metal bottom shell and affecting the neatness of the outer surface of the metal bottom shell.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0017] The power supply box that optimizes the production process and improves the protection strength is provided with an inner shell clamping position and an upper cover buckle on the limiting clamping edge at the top of the metal bottom shell for respectively fixing the plastic inner shell and the metal upper cover. After the power supply board is installed in the plastic inner shell, the plastic inner shell is embedded in the metal bottom shell corresponding to the power supply installation position in the metal bottom shell. The metal upper cover moves down corresponding to the limiting clamping edge and docks with the metal bottom shell to cover and protect the plastic inner shell. As the metal upper cover moves down and docks with the limiting clamping edge, the buckle grooves on the metal upper cover are docked with the two upper cover buckles on the outer sides of the limiting clamping edge, achieving the effect of quickly assembling the metal upper cover and the metal bottom shell, and achieving the purpose of reducing the assembly process of the power supply box and quickly assembling the power supply box;
[0018] On the outside of the power supply box, an L-shaped bending overlap is provided through the side plate and the base on the metal bottom shell. While fixing the side plate and the base through the L-shaped bending overlap, the left and right side walls of the base are supported and fixed through the L-shaped bending overlap, improving the strength when the left and right side walls of the base cooperate with the plastic inner shell and are inserted into the metal bottom shell, and avoiding the problem that the metal bottom shell deforms due to the insertion of the plastic inner shell.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0027] See also Figures 3 - 6 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0029] A power board 9 is embedded in the mounting groove 8 of the plastic inner shell 3, and the left and right sides of the top of the plastic inner shell 3 are respectively provided with outer inclined card plates 10 that are clamped with the inner shell clamping position 7. The distance between the bottom of the outer inclined card plate 10 and the bottom of the plastic inner shell 3 is consistent with the distance between the inner shell clamping position 7 and the bottom surface of the power installation position 1. The plastic inner shell 3 is embedded in the power installation position 1 and is clamped and fixed with the inner shell clamping position 7 through the outer inclined card plate 10;
[0030] Two buckle grooves 11 on the left and right sides of the metal upper cover 4 are buckled with the upper cover buckles 6 and cover the upper part of the plastic inner shell 3 and are fixed to the metal bottom shell 2 .
[0031] There are two upper cover buckles 6 on each side of the limiting clamping edge 5, and the two upper cover buckles 6 are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides opposite to the inner shell clamping position 7. The upper cover buckles 6 are buckled with the two buckle grooves 11 on the metal upper cover 4 to achieve the purpose of quickly fixing the metal upper cover 4 on the metal bottom shell 2.
[0032] The width of the outer side of the limiting card edge 5 and the outer surface of the metal bottom shell 2 is consistent with the thickness of the metal upper cover 4. The inner side of the metal upper cover 4 and the limiting card edge 5 and the outer surface of the metal upper cover 4 are on the same plane with the outer surface of the metal bottom shell 2.

[0033] One side of the plastic inner shell 3 that fits with the metal bottom shell 2 is provided with a groove 12, and the metal bottom shell 2 is provided with an observation window 15 corresponding to the groove 12.
