[0030] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0031] Here, it should also be noted that in order to avoid obscuring the present utility model due to unnecessary details, only the structures and / or processing steps closely related to the solution according to the present utility model are shown in the drawings, and other details less related to the present utility model are omitted.

[0032] As Figures 3 to 8 shown, a schematic diagram of the structure of the first embodiment of a flexible light strip with a control function provided by the present utility model is shown; in this first embodiment, the flexible light strip with a control function at least includes:

[0033] FPCB light board 1, on which a plurality of LED light sources 10 are arranged at intervals. At least one micro switch 11 for controlling the on-off of the circuit is arranged on the FPCB light board. Each micro switch 11 is connected in series with at least part of the LED light sources 10. Among them, the micro switch 11 is a mechanical pressing type or touch type micro switch. The micro switch 11 switches the on-off state between the circuits connected to it under pressing or touching, so as to control the on-off of the circuit where at least part of the LED light sources 10 are located. Of course, the micro switch 1 can also adopt other devices with similar switching functions. The shape presented by the micro switch 11 can be strip-shaped, square, circular or other shapes. At the same time, it can be understood that one or more device welding areas are arranged on the FPCB light board 1, and one or more light sources 10 and other components are arranged on the device welding areas to form an electrical circuit, and other complex circuits can be designed.

[0034] Wrapping layer 2, wrapped on the FPCB board 1. The wrapping layer 2 is on the light-emitting surface side of the LED light source 10, and at least the part facing the micro switch 11 is set to be transparent, so that the user can clearly see the positions of each micro switch 11 and facilitate the pressing operation.

[0035] In this embodiment, the FPCB light board 1 is a long strip-shaped light board, on which at least one micro switch 11 is arranged at intervals. Each micro switch 11 is used to control the on-off state of at least part of the LED light sources. Specifically, in one example, only one micro switch 11 can be set; or multiple micro switches 11 can be arranged at intervals. In an improved example, through the connection relationship of the circuit, each micro switch 11 can control the on-off of the LED light sources 10 in a section of the light strip, so that by controlling the states of different micro switches 11, it is possible to select which areas of the light strip emit light.

[0036] Furthermore, as Figure 7 shown, in use, one end of the light strip leads out a conductive wire and is connected to the power supply device 5 through the connector 4. The power supply device 5 supplies power to the light strip. An electric switch 50 is arranged on the power supply device, and the electric switch 50 can control the overall lighting or turning off operation of the light strip.

[0037] More specifically, the wrapping layer 2 is made of soft elastic plastic, such as it can be PVC, silica gel, PU or other soft plastic materials. The color of the wrapping layer 3 can be white, red, green, blue, yellow or other colors. And the cross-section of the light strip is circular, oval, rectangular or other polygons.

[0038] In this embodiment, by utilizing the characteristics of the FPC light board 1 and the soft elastic plastic wrapping layer 2, the light strip can be bent for use; the optimal structure is to place the strip-shaped FPC light board 1 with a micro switch at the symmetric center of the cross-section of the light strip, and the strip-shaped FPC light board 1 with a micro switch can also be placed horizontally, vertically or at other angles.

[0039] By using the light strip of the present utility model, through the operation mode of pressing or touching the micro switch 11, it is very easy to freely control the lighting applications at different positions according to the brightness requirements.

[0040] As Figures 8 to 11 shown, it shows a schematic structural diagram of a second embodiment of a flexible light strip with a control function provided by the present utility model; in this second embodiment, the main difference in its structure from the first embodiment lies in the FPCB board. Specifically, in the second embodiment, the FPCB light board 1 is formed by splicing multiple individual FPCB light boards, and a micro switch 11 is provided on each individual FPCB light board, and the micro switch 11 is used to control the on-off state of the LED light source 10 on the individual FPCB light board where it is located. Different individual FPCB light boards can adopt a parallel relationship, for example.

[0041] Meanwhile, two adjacent individual FPCB light boards are connected by a conductive connection jumper 6, and the conductive connection jumper 6 is a metal curve. In a specific example, the metal curve, as a metal wire, needs to be longer than the distance between the welding points on the FPCB light board 1 with a length of two unit lengths, and can be made of iron, copper, aluminum, copper alloy or other materials thereof; in some examples, the metal curve can adopt a wavy structure wire, a spiral spring structure wire or a telescopic metal structure wire, etc. structures. Thus, the light strip in this embodiment can be safely bent in all directions.

[0042] Implementing the embodiments of the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0043] The present utility model provides a flexible light strip with a control function. By setting independent micro switches in the FPCB board, it is very convenient to control the on-off of at least part of the light sources on the light strip, so that the on-off switch lighting at different positions can be realized according to the requirements of the lighting positions of the light strip, improving the convenience of lighting applications and the wide adaptability of application scenarios.

[0044] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and is not used to limit the scope of the claims of the present utility model. Therefore, all other equivalent changes or modifications completed without departing from the spirit disclosed by the present utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
