[0024] The technical solution of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a strip light, which includes a plurality of lamp housings 101, a light-emitting component 102 disposed in the lamp housing 101, and a light-transmitting lamp cover 103 that can be embedded in the lamp housing 101. Among them, a sliding strip light connector is further provided between two adjacent lamp housings 101.

[0026] The sliding strip light connector includes a male connector 1, a female connector 2, and a convex connecting portion 3 and a concave connecting portion 4 respectively disposed between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2. Among them, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are slidably inserted into each other up and down through the convex connecting portion 3 and the concave connecting portion 4 to be coupled to each other.

[0027] During assembly, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are respectively installed on the opposite end faces of the lamp housing 101 to be spliced. Then, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are slidably inserted into each other up and down through the convex connecting portion 4 and the concave connecting portion 4 to be coupled to each other, so as to realize the connection and assembly of two adjacent lamp housings 101. Finally, the light-transmitting lamp cover 103 is snapped onto the lamp housing 100 to complete the assembly. The assembly steps are simple, the assembly efficiency is high, the applicability is strong, and there is no need to use screws for fixation, greatly reducing the assembly labor intensity of workers.

[0028] Further, the convex connecting portion 3 includes a clamping rib 31 disposed on the outer side wall of the female connector 2, and the concave connecting portion 4 includes a clamping groove 41 formed on the inner side wall of the male connector 1. The clamping rib 31 is slidably inserted up and down into the clamping groove 41.

[0029] A second clamping portion 32 is further formed on the inner side wall of the male connector 1 outside the clamping groove 41, and a second clamping groove 42 is further formed on the outer side wall of the female connector 2 inside the clamping rib 31. The second clamping portion 32 is slidably inserted up and down into the second clamping groove 42.

[0030] During assembly, first move the male connector 1 diagonally above the female connector 2. Then, after aligning the clamping ribs 31 with the clamping grooves 41 and the second clamping part 32 with the second clamping grooves 42 respectively, move the male connector 1 downward so that the clamping ribs 31 are inserted into the clamping grooves 41 and the second clamping part 32 is inserted into the second clamping grooves 42, thus completing the connection between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, and then completing the splicing between the two lamp housings 101. It is practical and convenient, with simple assembly steps, high assembly efficiency, strong applicability, and greatly reducing the assembly labor intensity of workers.

[0031] Furthermore, the overlapping part of the convex connecting part 3 and the concave connecting part 4 between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 is arranged in an overlapping manner. Through this design, the volume of the connector after assembly can be greatly reduced, saving assembly space. At the same time, due to the overlapping arrangement, the side wall thickness of the connector will be increased, the connection is tight, and the phenomenon of light leakage at the joint part of the strip light can be avoided, preventing light leakage and improving the lighting effect of the strip light.

[0032] Furthermore, a limiting structure 5 capable of being clamped with the light-transmitting lamp cover 103 is also provided on the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0033] Specifically, the limiting structure 5 includes receiving parts 51 respectively arranged at one ends of the inner side walls of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, and a limiting protrusion 52 is also convexly provided at the outer end of the receiving part 51.

[0034] During assembly, after the lamp housing 101 is assembled by the sliding type strip light connector, the light-transmitting lamp cover 103 is respectively embedded into the lamp housing 101 and the receiving part 51 to complete the assembly. At the same time, the light-transmitting lamp cover 103 is an integrated PC cover. After the light-transmitting lamp cover 103 is assembled into the lamp housing 101 and the receiving part 51, the lamp housing 101, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can also be limited on the light-transmitting lamp cover 103, thereby realizing the up and down limiting between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, as well as the lamp housing 101, ensuring the connection stability between components, and being practical and convenient.

[0035] Furthermore, an auxiliary limiting hole structure 6 is also provided between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0036] Specifically, an auxiliary limiting hole 61 is also opened on the male connector 1, and an auxiliary limiting threaded hole 62 is also opened on the female connector 2. Among them, a limiting screw passes through the auxiliary limiting hole 61 and is screwed onto the auxiliary limiting threaded hole 62.

[0037] Through the setting of the auxiliary limiting hole structure 6, the relative position between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be further restricted, further ensuring the connection stability.

[0038] Further, a plurality of connecting sheet bodies 7 for connecting to both ends of the lamp housing 101 are respectively provided on the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0039] Specifically, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are respectively welded to opposite end faces of two adjacent lamp housings 101.

[0040] In this embodiment, after the connecting sheet body 7 is inserted into the end face of the lamp housing 101, it is then welded into one body. Through welding, the connection structure between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 and the lamp housing 101 is more stable and has higher strength.

[0041] In another embodiment, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are respectively connected to opposite end faces of two adjacent lamp housings 101 by locking screws. After the connecting sheet body 7 is inserted into the end face of the lamp housing 101, then the locking screws are respectively passed through the lamp housing 101 and screwed onto the connecting sheet body 7. Through screw connection, it is convenient for the disassembly and assembly of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 with the lamp housing 101, which is practical and convenient.

[0042] In summary, during the assembly of the embodiment of the present application, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are respectively installed on opposite end faces of the lamp housings 101 that need to be spliced. Then, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are mutually inserted and coupled by the up-and-down sliding of the convex connecting portion 4 and the concave connecting portion 4 to achieve the connection and assembly of two adjacent lamp housings 101. Finally, the transparent lamp cover 103 is snapped onto the lamp housing 100 to complete the assembly. The assembly steps are simple, the assembly efficiency is high, the applicability is strong, and there is no need to use screws for fixation, greatly reducing the assembly labor intensity of workers.
