[0002] In the existing lighting devices, they are usually composed of an LED light strip, a metal bottom frame, an internal power supply module, a light guide plate, and a diffusion plate. The LED light strip is arranged on the side edge of the metal bottom frame to achieve the side lighting function. The light emitted by the LED light strip is efficiently transmitted and evenly distributed through the light guide plate, and finally, a soft and uniform light output is achieved through the diffusion plate. However, the existing lighting devices have the following limitations: the light source is designed as non-replaceable, and once the light source fails, the entire lighting device needs to be replaced, resulting in a significant increase in maintenance costs and replacement costs during long-term use, which affects economic efficiency and environmental protection performance. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to improve the non-replaceability of the light source module of the lighting fixture in view of the above deficiencies of the existing technology. The purpose of this utility model is to provide a lighting fixture structure with a quickly replaceable module.

[0005] Further, the limiting part is composed of a plurality of buckles, and the longitudinal section of the buckle is L-shaped.

[0006] Furthermore, one end of the central groove a and the central groove b is provided with a terminal, which is connected to the driving part of the lighting fixture through a connecting wire. The terminal is a shell structure with openings at both ends, and a trapezoidal shell extends along both side surfaces from the opening end close to the light-emitting element.

[0007] Furthermore, a plurality of light-emitting elements are evenly arranged in the central groove a and the central groove b, and are linearly distributed along the entire length of the central groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the width of the first module does not exceed the distance between the corresponding buckles of the second module in the direction perpendicular to the central groove b.

[0009] Furthermore, both sides of the first module are respectively provided with upward protrusions to form grooves with downward openings. The grooves are located on both sides of the terminal, and the fixing strip is arranged on the side of the groove far from the terminal.

[0010] Furthermore, the center distance between adjacent notches of the first module along the direction of the central groove a is equal to the center distance between adjacent buckles of the second module along the direction of the central groove b.

[0011] Furthermore, the length of the notch is greater than or equal to the length of the buckle, and the height is less than or equal to the height of the buckle.

[0012] Furthermore, several blocking pieces extend from the upper surfaces on both sides of the central groove b towards the center, and the blocking pieces are linearly and evenly distributed along the central groove.

[0013] Beneficial effects: Through the design of the fixing strip and the limiting part, the present utility model realizes an accurate matching and rapid locking mechanism between the first module and the second module.

[0021] The following will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments.

[0022] A lamp structure with replaceable modules includes a first module 11 and a second module 2.

[0023] The first module 1: A linear light board is fixed on the main body 5. At the center position of the first module 1, there is a central groove a 1-4 running through the whole length, and the central groove a 1-4 is linearly distributed along the length direction of the first module 1, providing an ordered embedding space for the light-emitting elements 1-1. A number of light-emitting elements 1-1 are evenly embedded in the central groove a 1-4 and arranged in a linear array along the whole length of the central groove a 1-4. The height of the light-emitting elements 1-1 does not exceed the height of the central groove a 1-4, thus forming a physical protection barrier for the light-emitting elements 1-1 to prevent damage caused by external factors. At the lower ends on both sides of the first module 11, there are fixing strips 1-2, and the fixing strips 1-2 are linearly distributed along the direction of the central groove. There are N precisely distributed notches 1-2-1 on the fixing strips 1-2. The design of these notches 1-2-1 is intended to achieve precise cooperation with the buckles 2-1-1 of the second module 2 to ensure a firm connection between the modules. At one end of the central groove a 1-4, there is a terminal 3. The terminal 3 is designed with a hollow cuboid shell, having an opening at the bottom end and the top end. The opening at the end far from the light-emitting elements 1-1 is the connection line interface 3-2, ensuring the convenience of electrical connection and the heat dissipation efficiency. The planes where the bottom end and the top end of the terminal 3 are located are perpendicular to the plane where the first module 11 is located and perpendicular to the direction of the central groove a 1-4. The terminal 3 is fixed to the lamp driving part through a quick connection line 4. The port of the quick connection line 4 is a cuboid, and its shape and size are adapted to the terminal 3 with a hollow cuboid shell. At one end of the terminal 3 close to the light-emitting elements 1-1, a trapezoidal shell 3-1 extends along both side faces. The longest side of the trapezoidal shell 3-1 is less than the height of the terminal 3. On both sides of the first module 1, there are protection grooves 1-3 formed by upward protrusions with the opening facing downwards. These grooves 1-3 are located on both sides of the terminal 3, adjacent to the terminal 3 and the light-emitting elements 1-1, providing additional physical protection for the terminal 3 and the light-emitting elements 1-1 and enhancing the stability and durability of the overall structure. The N notches 1-2-1 on the fixing strips 1-2 correspond precisely to the buckles of the second module 2. The length, height, and width of the notches 1-2-1 are all matched with the dimensions of the buckles 2-1-1, ensuring the precise cooperation and stable fixation between the modules. The length of the notches 1-2-1 is greater than or equal to the length of the buckles, while the height is less than or equal to the height of the buckles 2-1-1 to achieve stable fixation and flexible replacement of the modules. In addition, the center distance between two adjacent notches 1-2-1 along the direction of the central groove a 1-4 is the same as the center distance between two adjacent buckles 2-1-1 along the direction of the central groove b 1-4. This symmetrical layout not only enhances the coordination and consistency of the overall structure but also ensures high efficiency and high reliability during the module replacement process.

[0024] Second Module 2: A linear light board is fixed on the main body 5. It has a central groove b1-4 in the center, and the central groove b1-4 is linearly distributed along the entire length of the second module 2, providing an orderly embedding space for the light-emitting elements 1-1. A number of light-emitting elements 1-1 are evenly embedded in the central groove b1-4 and arranged in a linear array along the entire length of the central groove b1-4, ensuring that the height of the light-emitting elements 1-1 does not exceed the height of the central groove b1-4, thus forming a physical protection barrier for the light-emitting elements 1-1 to prevent damage caused by external factors. One end of the central groove b1-4 is provided with a terminal 3, and the terminal 3 is fixed to the lamp driving part through a quick connection wire 4. The terminal 3 is designed with a hollow rectangular parallelepiped housing, with openings at the bottom and top. The opening at the end away from the light-emitting elements 1-1 is the connection wire interface 3-2. The port of the quick connection wire 4 is rectangular, and its shape and size are adapted to the terminal 3 of the hollow rectangular parallelepiped housing, ensuring the convenience of electrical connection and the heat dissipation efficiency. The planes where the bottom and top are located are perpendicular to the plane where the first module 1 is located and perpendicular to the direction of the central groove b1-4. One end of the terminal 3 close to the light-emitting elements 1-1 extends a trapezoidal housing 3-1 along both sides. The longest side of the trapezoidal housing 3-1 is less than the height of the terminal 3. The design of the trapezoidal housing 3-1 plays a key protective role during the module replacement process. When performing the module replacement operation, due to the dynamic nature of the operation, there is a risk that one end of the first module 1 collides with the terminal 3 of the second module 2, especially when the quick connection wire 4 has not been completely separated from the terminal 3 of the second module 2. At this time, the geometric structure of the trapezoidal housing 3-1 provides a buffer zone, and its design cleverly isolates the quick connection wire 4 from the possible impact points, thus effectively avoiding the wear or damage of the quick connection wire 4 caused by accidental collisions during the module replacement process; On both sides of the second module 2, there are protection grooves 1-3 formed by upward protrusions with openings facing down. These grooves 1-3 are located on both sides of the terminal 3, adjacent to the terminal 3 and the light-emitting elements 1-1, providing additional physical protection for the terminal 3 and the light-emitting elements 1-1 and enhancing the stability and durability of the overall structure. On both sides of the second module 2, N buckles 2-1-1 with lengths, heights, and widths corresponding to the notches 1-2-1 are linearly and evenly distributed. The limiting part 2-1 is composed of N buckles 2-1-1, and the longitudinal section of the buckle 2-1-1 is L-shaped. This design provides an accurate positioning and stable locking mechanism. Further, the length of the buckle 2-1-1 is less than or equal to the length of the notch 1-2-1, and the height of the buckle 2-1-1 is less than or equal to the height of the notch 1-2-1, ensuring precise fit and stable fixation between the modules. The center distance between two adjacent buckles 2-1-1 in the direction of the central groove b1-4 is equal to the center distance between two adjacent notches 1-2-1 in the direction of the central groove a1-4.On both upper surfaces of the center groove b 1-4, a number of retaining pieces 2-2 extend inwards. There is a small groove in the middle of the retaining pieces 2-2, and the width of the small groove is less than or equal to the width of the retaining pieces 2-2. The retaining pieces 2-2 are linearly and evenly distributed along the center groove b 1-4. The width of the retaining pieces 2-2 is less than 1 / 2 of the width of the center groove b 1-4, and the height is less than the height of the center groove b 1-4. This design ensures that while the retaining pieces 2-2 provide structural support, they do not obstruct the light propagation of the light-emitting element 1-1. The design of the center groove b 1-4 adopts precise dimension control, and its width is slightly less than the width of the center groove a 1-4. This design detail is to avoid position offset or instability during the installation or use of the first module 1. Through this subtle difference in dimensions, it can be ensured that the cooperation between the first module 1 and the second module 2 is closer, thereby improving the rigidity and stability of the overall structure.

[0025] Fixing method 1: Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the operator places the first module 1 on the second module 2 from top to bottom. Through the action of placing it vertically from top to bottom, the operator precisely places the first module 1 in the corresponding position of the second module 2 from above. During this process, the operator needs to ensure that the fixing strip 1-2 of the first module 1 is precisely aligned with the limiting part 2-1 of the second module 2. And through the mechanical fastening action, the fixing strip 1-2 is firmly embedded in the limiting part 2-1 to form a stable mechanical lock. At this time, perform the conversion operation of electrical connection, such as Figure 6 : Disconnect the quick connecting wire 4 originally connected to the lamp driving part from the second module 2, and quickly and accurately connect it to the terminal 3 of the first module 1 to complete the replacement of the module.

[0026] Fixing method 2: Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, first, the operator ensures that the lower surface of the first module 1 is aligned with the upper surface of the second module 2, and at the same time precisely aligns one end of the first module 1 close to the terminal 3 with one end of the second module 2 far from the terminal 3 to ensure the correct spatial position matching of the two modules. The operator slides the fixing strip 1-2 of the first module 1 along the side into the limiting part 2-1 of the second module 2, and slides smoothly and precisely along the direction of the center groove towards the terminal 3 of the second module 2. When the first module 1 slides to the predetermined position, that is, when the terminal 3 of the second module 2 contacts the first module 1, the operator needs to stop further sliding to make the fixing strip 1-2 of the first module 1 contact and fix with the limiting part 2-1 of the second module 2. At this time, perform the conversion operation of electrical connection, such as Figure 6 : Disconnect the quick connecting wire 4 originally connected to the lamp driving part from the second module 2, and quickly and accurately connect it to the terminal 3 of the first module 1 to complete the replacement of the module.

[0027] Fixing method three: Refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the operator first precisely aligns the N notches 1-2-1 on the first module 1 with the N latches 2-1-1 of the second module 2. By the action of placing from the upper end downwards, ensure that the N notches 1-2-1 are accurately snapped into the corresponding N latches 2-1-1 to achieve preliminary mechanical locking. Subsequently, the operator needs to push the first module 1 horizontally towards the terminal 3 along the direction of the central groove, so that the fixing strip 1-2 on the first module 1 slides smoothly within the latch 2-1-1 of the second module 2. When sliding to the predetermined position, that is, when the trapezoidal housing 3-1 of the terminal 3 of the second module 2 contacts the first module 1, the operator needs to stop further sliding, and make the fixing strip 1-2 of the first module 1 contact and fix with the limiting part 2-1 of the second module 2. At this time, perform the conversion operation of electrical connection, such as Figure 6 : Disconnect the quick connecting wire 4 originally connected to the lamp driving part from the second module 2, and quickly and accurately connect it to the terminal 3 of the first module 1 to complete the module replacement.

[0028] It should be clear that the first module 1 can be designed as a single, integrated lighting component, or can be an independently working lamp board (module) to adapt to different application scenarios and design requirements. This design strategy not only provides a customized solution, but also allows manufacturers and users to select the most suitable module configuration according to specific lighting requirements and space layout; the above illustrations are only for exemplary display. In fact, the shapes and forms of components such as the first module 1, the second module 2, and the main body 5 can be diversified, including but not limited to geometric shapes such as circular, oval, square, rectangle, etc. The design of these shapes aims to meet the aesthetic and functional requirements of different lighting environments while maintaining the core function of the quickly replaceable module; the display of the embodiment is only for illustrative purposes. In actual applications, the fixing methods of the module can include and are not limited to the foregoing several. For example, glue fixing can be used to achieve stable fixing of the module by the bonding strength of the adhesive; double-sided tape fixing can be used for quick installation through the simple adhesion characteristics of the pressure-sensitive adhesive; magnetic fixing can be used to achieve quick alignment and adsorption of the module by using the magnetic principle; riveting fixing can provide stable support through mechanical connection methods; and press-fitting fixing can tightly fit the module together by using pressure.

[0029] As described above, the beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: Through the design of the fixing strip and the limiting part, the present utility model realizes an accurate matching and rapid locking mechanism between the first module and the second module. The mutual adaptation between the notch of the first module and the buckle of the second module allows the first module to be easily placed and fixed on the second module, thus realizing a rapid and simple replacement process of the module. The entire replacement process reflects the modular design, user-friendliness, and simplicity of operation, allowing the operator to complete the replacement of the module with the fewest steps and the highest efficiency. Through this carefully designed replacement mechanism, the maintenance process is optimized, the maintenance efficiency of the lamp is greatly improved, the user experience is optimized, and the long-term operation cost is reduced.

[0030] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention, and should all be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
