[0028] This embodiment provides a housing for a lamp manual controller, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown. The housing includes a bottom case 1, a connecting case 3 and a touch screen 2. Among them, the bottom case 1 includes a bottom plate 10 and first side plates 11 formed around the periphery of the bottom plate 10. The first side plates 11 and the bottom plate 10 cooperate to form a cavity 12 with an opening. The connecting case 3 includes a connecting frame 30 and second side plates 31 formed around the periphery of the connecting frame 30. A snap structure is provided between the first side plates 11 and the second side plates 31, and the connecting case 3 is snap-fitted and fixed to the bottom case 1 through the snap structure. The touch screen 2 is fixed on the connecting frame 30 and covers the opening through the connecting case 3.

[0029] Compared with the housing for a lamp manual controller in the prior art, the housing provided in this embodiment is additionally provided with a connecting case 3. A snap structure is provided between the second side plates 31 of the connecting case 3 and the first side plates 11 of the bottom case 1. Through the snap structure, the connecting case 3 and the bottom case 1 can be quickly disassembled and assembled, so as to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the electronic control board 4 of the lamp manual controller located inside the housing. The touch screen 2 is fixedly arranged on the connecting case 3, and after the connecting case 3 is snap-fitted to the bottom case 1, the touch screen 2 can cover the opening. Specifically in this embodiment, the touch screen 2 is fixedly adhered to the connecting frame 30 by adhesive.

[0030] As Figure 3 shown, the connecting frame 30 in the connecting case 3 is a frame structure. Combining Figure 5 shown, the purpose of such a design is to enable the touch screen 2 adhered to the connecting frame 30 to directly face the electronic control board 4 of the lamp manual controller arranged in the cavity 12, that is, the connecting frame 30 does not completely shield the touch screen 2, which is convenient for the electrical connection design between the touch screen 2 and the electronic control board 4.

[0031] The snap structure in this embodiment includes a bayonet 110 provided on the first side plate 11 and a clamping plate 311 provided on the second side plate 31. Specifically in this embodiment, the second side plate 31 extends into the cavity 12 from the opening and is snap-fitted with the first side plate 11 by clamping the clamping plate 311 into the bayonet 110. That is, the outer contour dimension of the second side plate 31 in this embodiment is smaller than the outer contour dimension of the first side plate 11, and during assembly, the connecting case 3 is inserted into the cavity 12 formed by the bottom case 1. It is easy to understand that in other alternative embodiments, the outer contour dimension of the second side plate 31 can also be designed to be larger than the outer contour dimension of the first side plate 11, so that during assembly, the connecting case 3 is covered outside the bottom case 1. In addition, in other alternative embodiments, the clamping plate 311 can also be designed on the first side plate 11, and correspondingly, the bayonet 110 is arranged on the second side plate 31.

[0032] Further, in combination with Figure 4 As shown in Figure 4 , in this embodiment, an opening groove 310 is formed by extending downward from the upper end of the second side plate 31, and the clamping plate 311 is formed by extending upward and outward from the bottom wall of the opening groove 310. There are gaps between the clamping plate 311 and both side walls of the opening groove 310 and the touch screen 2, so that the clamping plate 311 can move relative to the second side plate 31 through deformation and be clamped into the bayonet 110 during the process of the second side plate 31 extending into the cavity 12. Both the connecting shell 3 and the bottom shell 1 in this embodiment are made of plastic material by injection molding process. Through the above structural design, the clamping plate 311 on the second side plate 31 can generate deformation relative to the second side plate 31 under the action of external force, and the clamping plate 311 can move relative to the second side plate 31 through the above deformation, and then the clamping plate 311 can be clamped into the bayonet 110 through the above deformation action.

[0033] In this embodiment, a first clamping portion 3110 is formed at the upper end of the clamping plate 311. A support step 111 is formed at the open end of the inner wall of the cavity 12. A pressing portion 1110 is formed on the upper end surface of the support step 111 at the position corresponding to the bayonet 110, and a second clamping portion 1111 is formed on the lower end surface of the support step 111 at the position corresponding to the bayonet 110. During the process of the second side plate 31 extending into the cavity 12, the clamping plate 311 generates deformation under the pressing action of the pressing portion 1110, and the first clamping portion 3110 and the second clamping portion 1111 are pressed tightly after the clamping plate 311 is clamped into the bayonet 110. Through the above structural design, during the assembly process, the connecting shell 3 is pressed into the cavity 12 from the open end. During the pressing process, the clamping plate 311 on the second side plate 31 will interfere with the support step 111, and the pressing portion 1110 will exert a force on the clamping plate 311. Under the pressing action of the pressing portion 1110, the clamping plate 311 generates deformation relative to the second side plate 31 until the connecting shell 3 is pressed in place, and then the clamping plate 311 is separated from the support step 111. Then the clamping plate 311 will return to its original position through deformation and be clamped into the bayonet 110 located below the support step 111. At this time, the first clamping portion 3110 on the clamping plate 311 and the second clamping portion 1111 on the support step 111 are in mutual contact, so as to limit the separation of the connecting shell 3 relative to the bottom shell 1.

[0034] It is easy to understand that when it is necessary to remove the touch screen 2 from the bottom shell 1, a finger or a screwdriver tool can be inserted into the bayonet 110 from the outside and push the clamping plate 311. By pressing on the clamping plate 311, the clamping plate 311 generates deformation relative to the second side plate 31. The clamping plate 311 can be separated from the bayonet 110 through deformation, and then the connecting shell 3 with the touch screen 2 can be taken out.

[0035] It should be noted that the above "upper end" and "lower end" in this embodiment are in the up and down directions with respect to Figure 2 or Figure 4For the housing placement form shown, that is, the side where the bottom plate 10 of the housing is located is set as the lower side, and the side where the touch screen 2 is located is set as the upper side.

[0036] In this embodiment, the outer contour of the touch screen 2 is also designed to be larger than the outer contour of the second side plate 31. Specifically, the outer circle of the touch screen 2 extends beyond the outer circle of the second side plate 31 to form an overlapping portion 20 therebetween, and the touch screen 2 abuts against the upper end surface of the support step 111 through the overlapping portion 20. Through the above design, it is convenient for the assembly operator to accurately sense whether the assembly is in place. During assembly, it is only necessary to press the connection shell 3 with the touch screen 2 into the cavity 12 until it is sensed that the overlapping portion 20 abuts against the support step 111.

[0037] Combined Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in, the housing provided in this embodiment can be applied to a lamp manual controller. Specifically, the lamp manual controller includes an electronic control board 4 and the housing provided in this embodiment, and the electronic control board 4 is fixedly arranged in the cavity 12, and the touch screen 2 is electrically connected to the electronic control board 4.

[0038] In this embodiment, the touch screen 2 is electrically connected to the electronic control board 4 through a touch spring 5. Specifically, a touch spring 5 is also arranged in the cavity 12, and the touch spring 5 is press-fitted and positioned between the touch screen 2 and the electronic control board 4. The upper end of the touch spring 5 is in direct contact with the touch screen 2, and the lower end of the touch spring 5 is in direct contact with the electronic control board 4. When the user presses a corresponding position on the touch screen 2, an electrical signal can be transmitted to the electronic control board 4 through the touch spring 5, and the electronic control board 4 then generates a corresponding control signal to control the operation of the lamp.

[0039] As described above, the housing provided in this embodiment is convenient for disassembly and assembly, and thus is convenient for operations such as overhaul and replacement of the electronic control board 4 in the cavity 12. For this reason, the assembly method of the electronic control board 4 in the cavity 12 is also designed in this embodiment so that the electronic control board 4 itself is also convenient for disassembly and assembly. Specifically, in this embodiment, a support post 101 is formed on the bottom plate 10, and a pressing post 300 is formed on the connection frame 30. The electronic control board 4 is press-fitted and positioned between the pressing post 300 and the support post 101. That is, during assembly, first place the electronic control board 4 on the support post 101 in the cavity 12, then place four touch springs 5 on the corresponding positions of the electronic control board 4 in sequence, and then press the connection shell 3 with the touch screen 2 into the cavity 12. After the connection shell 3 is snap-fixed to the bottom shell 1, the electronic control board 4 can be press-fitted and positioned on the support post 101 through the pressing post 300, and at the same time, the electrical connection between the touch screen 2 and the electronic control board 4 is realized.

[0040] As Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the manual controller of the lamp can also be provided with a wire routing hole 100 on the bottom plate 10 of the bottom shell 1. By providing the wire routing hole 100, it is convenient for the electronic control board 4 to be electrically connected to the light source of the lamp. An installation plate 102 can also be provided on the bottom plate 10 of the bottom shell 1, and installation holes are provided on the installation plate 102, which facilitates the fixed installation of the manual controller of the lamp to the outside. For example, the manual controller of the lamp can be fixedly installed on the tabletop of a table, the frame of a bookshelf, etc. through the installation plate 102.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only optional embodiment modes of the present invention, and the scope of protection of the present invention cannot be limited thereby. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention belong to the scope of protection required by the present invention.
