[0026] refer to Figure 1 As shown, a clothes drying machine lighting structure that is easy to disassemble and assemble is mainly used as a lighting device on a clothes drying machine host; it includes a bottom frame 1, a chassis 2 for installing a light module (not shown in the figure) and a lampshade 3.
[0027] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the chassis 2 is fixed inside the bottom frame 1, wherein a first fixing plate 4 and a second fixing plate 4 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the bottom frame 1 near the lower end; a plurality of brackets 6 are provided between the first fixing plate 3 and the second fixing plate 4, and the chassis 2 is fixed on the brackets 6.
[0028] Among them, reference Figure 4 As shown, the bottom frame 1 includes a mounting plate 11 and a side cover 12 respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the mounting plate 11; the left and right sides of the mounting plate 11 extend outward to form a mounting portion 101, and the mounting portion 101 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 102; the first fixing plate 3 and the second fixing plate 4 are respectively arranged on the inner sides of the corresponding side covers 12.
[0029] The front and rear edges of the mounting plate 11 are respectively bent downward to form a first side panel 111. The upper edges of the side covers 12 are both bent upward to form a second side panel 121 corresponding to the first side panel 111. The inner side surfaces of the second side panels 121 abut and are fixedly connected to the outer side surfaces of the corresponding first side panels 111. In this embodiment, screw holes are correspondingly provided on the first and second side panels 111, 121, and the screw holes cooperate with the connecting members to securely connect the first and second side panels 111, 121.
[0030] refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the front and rear edges of the chassis 2 are bent downward to form a bent portion 21. A plurality of L-shaped engaging grooves 22 are spaced apart on the outside of the bent portion 21. Furthermore, the interior of the lampshade 3 is provided with a clamping block 31 on both the front and rear sides, corresponding one-to-one with the L-shaped engaging grooves 22. The clamping block 313 is inserted into the L-shaped engaging groove 22, allowing the lampshade 3 to be removably connected to the chassis 2. In actual use, the clamping block 313 can be inserted into the L-shaped engaging groove 22 by providing any insertion portion, such as a notch or a slide, on one side of the L-shaped engaging groove 22, thereby achieving a clamping connection between the clamping block 313 and the L-shaped engaging groove 22.
[0031] In this embodiment, the L-shaped snap-in groove 22 is provided with a slot 23 for the clamping block 31 to be inserted into the L-shaped snap-in groove 22. The lampshade 3 is sleeved outside the bending portion 21, and the clamping block 31 is inserted into the L-shaped snap-in groove 22 through the slot 23, so that the lampshade 3 is detachably connected to the chassis 2.
[0032] Specifically, the installation and removal process of the chassis 2 and the lampshade 3 is as follows: The L-shaped snap-fitting slot 22 includes a vertical slot and a horizontal slot. Preferably, the vertical slot and the horizontal slot are connected by, but not limited to, an arcuate slot, or either end of the vertical slot is directly connected to the horizontal slot, with the horizontal slot and the vertical slot being arranged at a certain angle. In this embodiment, one end of the vertical slot is directly connected to the horizontal slot, with the horizontal slot and the vertical slot being arranged at a 90-degree angle.
[0033] One end of the vertical slot is connected to the notch 23, and the other end of the vertical slot is connected to the transverse slot. The end of the transverse slot away from the vertical slot is a closed end. During installation, that is, when the front and rear sides of the lampshade 3 are respectively sleeved outside the bent portion 21, the clamping block 31 first vertically enters the vertical slot along the notch 23, and after reaching the bottom of the vertical slot, moves horizontally toward the transverse slot to its closed end, so that the clamping block 31 is limited and locked in the transverse slot, thereby fixing the lampshade 3 to the chassis 2. During disassembly, the lampshade 3 moves along the length of the chassis 2, so that the clamping block 31 moves horizontally from the closed end of the transverse slot to the vertical slot, and then moves the lampshade away from the chassis 2, so that the clamping block 31 is separated from the vertical slot by the notch 23, completing the disassembly of the lampshade 3 from the chassis 2.
[0034] The L-shaped snap-in slot 22 and the block 31 cooperate to quickly install and remove the lampshade 3 from the chassis 2, simplifying the installation process and improving work efficiency. It also facilitates subsequent maintenance and replacement of the lampshade 3 or other components, such as the lighting module, reducing maintenance costs and disassembly difficulties. Furthermore, the design of the L-shaped snap-in slot 22 ensures that the block 31 forms a stable mechanical lock upon insertion, securing it within the slot 22. This effectively prevents the lampshade 3 from loosening or falling off during use, ensuring the stability and safety of the lighting structure.
[0035] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 3 As shown, the chassis 2 includes a bottom plate 24 and the bent portions 21 provided at the front and rear edges of the bottom plate 24. The bottom plate 24 is recessed upward to form a lamp tray 25 on which a lighting module (not shown) is mounted. The middle portions of the supports 6 are bent upward to form a nesting groove 61, into which the lamp tray 25 is nested and fixed. The ends of the nesting groove 61 extend outward to form extensions 62 that can be fixed to the first fixing plate 4 or the second fixing plate 5. In this embodiment, the lighting module includes a plurality of lamp bead boards provided on the lamp tray 25.
[0036] Several spaced-apart brackets 6 are bent upward at their midsections to form nesting grooves 61. These are secured to the first fixing plate 4 or the second fixing plate 5 via extensions 62 extending outward from both ends of the nesting grooves 61. These nesting grooves 61 form a structure that can nest and secure the lamp panel 25 formed by the upwardly recessed bottom plate 24. This allows the lamp panel 25 to be nested and secured within the nesting grooves 61 of the brackets 6, achieving a tight connection between the bottom plate 2 and the brackets 6 and enhancing the stability of the entire lighting structure. In this embodiment, the brackets include three brackets spaced apart between the first fixing plate 4 and the second fixing plate 5.
[0037] Among them, a number of snap-in grooves 251 are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the lamp panel 25, and every two symmetrically arranged snap-in grooves 251 correspond one-to-one to the bracket 6; the lamp panel 25 between every two symmetrically arranged snap-in grooves 251 is nested and fixed in the nesting groove 61 of the corresponding bracket, and the snap-in groove 251 abuts against the extension part 62 of the corresponding nesting groove 51.
[0038] The lamp panel 25 between every two symmetrically arranged snap-in grooves 251 forms a nesting portion of the lamp panel 25 due to the design of the recessed snap-in grooves 251 on both sides. The nesting portion can be nested and fixed in the nesting groove 61 of the corresponding bracket, and the bottom of the snap-in groove 251 abuts against the bottom of the extension portion 62 of the corresponding nesting groove 51.
[0039] The bracket 6 is fixed to the chassis 2 by a plurality of screws 7. In this embodiment, the bracket 6 where the extension 62 and the nesting groove 61 are located is provided with fixing holes, and the clamping groove 251 and the lamp panel 25 are provided with corresponding circular holes. The fixing holes and the circular holes are connected by screws, so that the bracket 6 and the chassis 2 are further fixedly connected.
[0040] refer to Figure 7 As shown, the lampshade 3 includes an arcuate cover body 32 and a positioning connecting plate 33 disposed on the front and rear sides of the arcuate cover body 32. The clamping block 31 is disposed on the inner side of the positioning connecting plate 33. A first flange 13 and a second flange 14 are disposed on the inner side of the base frame 1 below the first fixing plate 4 or the second fixing plate 5, extending outward in sequence toward the lampshade 3. The first and second flanges 13, 14 have the same outer diameter, and the first and second flanges 13, 14 form an insertion channel with the bent portion 21. The positioning connecting plate 33 inserts the clamping block 31 through the notch 23 along the insertion channel into the L-shaped clamping groove 22.
[0041] When the lampshade 3 is connected to the chassis 2, the positioning connecting plate 33 is sleeved along the insertion channel outside the bending portion 21, so that the clamping block 31 is inserted into the L-shaped clamping groove 22 through the notch 23, fixedly connecting the lampshade 3 and the chassis 2, and making the outer side surface of the positioning connecting plate 33 abut against the first flange 13 and the second flange 14.
