[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this invention are intended only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Combine Figures 1 to 4 , schematically shows the connection assembly of the present invention, including a base 10, a mounting component 20 and a clamping device.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 The base 10 is provided with a limiting structure, and the mounting component 20 is slidably connected to the limiting structure. Specifically, the mounting component 20 is slidably abutted against the limiting structure. The limiting structure can limit the degree of freedom between the mounting component 20 and the base 10, so that the mounting component 20 and the base 10 can only slide relative to each other in a certain direction.

[0032] The clamping device includes a clamping block 11 and a connecting member 21. The connecting member 21 defines a clamping hole 211. The clamping block 11 is removably inserted into the clamping hole 211. One of the clamping block 11 and the connecting member 21 is disposed on the base 10, and the other is disposed on the mounting member 20. In this embodiment, the clamping block 11 is fixed to the base 10, and the connecting member 21 is disposed at the end of the mounting member 20. The connecting member 21 may be elastic to allow installation personnel to manipulate the connecting member 21 and cause it to deform.

[0033] When separating the base 10 and the mounting component 20, force is first applied to pull the connecting member 21 to deform the connecting member 21, disengaging the engaging hole 211 from the engaging block 11. Then force is applied to push the mounting component 20 to slide relative to the base 10, thereby separating the two. When assembling the base 10 and the mounting component 20, the mounting component 20 is pushed relative to the base 10 to slide, causing the connecting member 21 and the engaging block 11 to move toward each other. Finally, the engaging block 11 and the engaging hole 211 engage, thereby achieving tool-free disassembly and assembly of the mounting component 20 and the base 10, and the disassembly and assembly operation is simple and quick.

[0034] Specific, combined Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the limiting structure includes a limiting beam 30 connected to the base 10 and connecting arms 31 provided at both ends of the limiting beam 30. The connecting arms 31 are detachably connected to the base 10. The two connecting arms 31 and the limiting beam 30 form a structure with a U-shaped cross section. The limiting beam 30 is arranged opposite to the base 10. The mounting component 20 is located between the base 10 and the limiting beam 30, and the mounting component 20 is slidably abutted against the limiting beam 30. The setting of the limiting beam 30 can prevent the mounting component 20 from moving in a direction away from the base 10, thereby limiting the degree of freedom between the mounting component 20 and the base 10.

[0035] Among them, such as Figure 3 The limiting beam 30 is equipped with a plurality of elastic connecting tongues 32. The ends of the connecting tongues 32 slidably abut the mounting member 20. When the connecting tongues 32 are in a position to move toward the mounting member 20, they provide a thrust force toward the mounting member 20, thereby preventing the mounting member 20 from wobbling between the base 10 and the limiting beam 30. Furthermore, the ends of the connecting tongues 32 are provided with connecting flanges 321 that are inclined relative to their extension direction. The connecting flanges 321 and the connecting tongues 32 are integrally formed and slidably abut the mounting member 20. The provision of the connecting flanges 321 reduces friction between the connecting flanges 32 and the mounting member 20, ensuring smoother sliding between the connecting flanges 32 and the mounting member 20. A plurality of connecting tongues 32 are provided, one on each side of the limiting beam 30, ensuring a more uniform thrust force on the mounting member 20.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to reduce the contact area between the base 10 and the mounting component 20, the limiting structure further includes a supporting rib 12 provided on the base 10. The mounting component 20 is located between the supporting rib 12 and the limiting crossbeam 30, and the mounting component 20 can slidably abut against the supporting rib 12. One side of the supporting rib 12 is connected to the base 10, and the other side of the supporting rib 12 has a mounting plane 123. The mounting component 20 can slidably abut against the mounting plane 123. Especially when the surface of the base 10 is manufactured into a curved surface, the supporting rib 12 can provide the mounting component 20 with a stable mounting plane 123, and the mounting plane 123 is more conducive to maintaining the position of the mounting component 20. Specifically, the supporting rib 12 includes a first rib 121 and a second rib 122 which are arranged perpendicularly and intersectingly. The first rib 121 is connected to the clamping block 11 or the connecting member 21, and the second rib 122 is connected to the connecting arm 31 of the limiting beam 30. The first rib 121 and the second rib 122 can significantly reduce the contact area between the base 10 and the mounting component 20, so that the sliding between the base 10 and the mounting component 20 is smoother. At the same time, both the first rib 121 and the second rib 122 have a mounting plane 123.

[0037] In addition, the limiting structure includes a first limiting column 13 and a second limiting column 14, both of which are arranged on the base 10. The two ends of the second rib 122 are respectively connected to the first limiting column 13 and the second limiting column 14. The first limiting column 13 and the second limiting column 14 are respectively abutted against the two sides of the mounting component 20. The first limiting column 13 is detachably connected to one of the connecting arms 31 by fasteners such as screws or bolts. Similarly, the second limiting column 14 is detachably connected to the other connecting arm 31 by fasteners such as screws or bolts.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] This embodiment provides a lamp, including the above-mentioned connection assembly. The base 10 can be a lamp housing or a cover of the lamp, and the mounting component 20 can be a shell of a lightning protection module.

[0040] To sum up, the mounting component 20 is slidably connected to the base 10 through a limiting structure. One of the clamping block 11 and the clamping member of the clamping device is arranged on the base 10, and the other is arranged on the mounting component 20. The connecting member 21 is provided with a clamping hole 211. The clamping block 11 is detachably embedded in the clamping hole 211 to temporarily fix the mounting component 20 and the base 10. By applying force to pull the connecting member 21 to deform it, the clamping block 11 disengages from the clamping hole 211, and the mounting component 20 and the base 10 can be separated without tools. When installing the two, it is only necessary to drive the mounting component 20 to slide relative to the base 10, and make the clamping hole 211 and the clamping block 11 move toward each other and engage with each other.
