[0002] The light strips and panels within LED lamps are generally referred to as light source modules, while the array or combination of these modules is generally referred to as a light source module. Electrical connections between light source modules typically use wires. While this method is widely used, it is not suitable in some special cases. For example, when a product has very high flame retardancy requirements, the main material of all components must be metal. In this case, although wires can be used, the connectors (terminal blocks) used with the wires cannot be used. Abandoning the connectors and using soldered wires can certainly solve the problem, but this will make subsequent maintenance very cumbersome.

[0017] The specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the description of the embodiments does not limit the technical solution. Any changes in form rather than substance based on the concept of the present invention should be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] In the following description, all concepts related to directionality (or orientation) such as up, down, left, right, front and back are with respect to the position state of the figure being described, and are intended to facilitate public understanding. Therefore, they should not be understood as special limitations on the technical solutions provided by the present invention.
[0019] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention relates to a connection structure for a light source module, comprising a light source module, a connecting plate 2, and a connecting bracket 3. The light source module comprises a plurality of light source modules 1 spaced apart side by side. The light source module 1 comprises a substrate 11, which is a single-sided aluminum substrate. A plurality of light sources 12 and first soldering pads 13 electrically connected to each light source 12 are spaced apart on the front of the substrate 11. The connecting plate 2 and the connecting bracket 3 are symmetrically arranged on the front and back sides of the light source module, and are respectively arranged perpendicular to each light source module 1. The connecting plate 2 has second soldering pads 21 formed on a side facing the light source module, corresponding to the first soldering pads 13 on each light source module 1. The second soldering pads 21 are configured to contact and electrically connect with the first soldering pads 13, thereby ensuring electrical continuity between the connecting plate 2 and the circuits on the light source module 1. To ensure reliable contact between the first soldering pads 13 and the second soldering pads 21, solder paste is applied to the first soldering pads 13 when the light source 12 is being mounted on the light source module 1. After being subjected to the high temperature of reflow soldering, the solder paste forms a solder bump on the first soldering pad 13. The first soldering pad 13 has a first screw hole 131 formed in the center, and the second soldering pad 21 has a second screw hole 211 formed in the center. The connecting bracket 3 has a third screw hole 31 corresponding to the first screw hole 131. A connecting member 4, in this case a screw, passes through the second screw hole 211 and the first screw hole 131 in sequence and is screwed into the third screw hole 31 of the connecting bracket 3, thereby fixing the connecting plate 2 to the light source module 1, so that the solder bump of the first soldering pad 13 contacts and is electrically connected to the second soldering pad 21. The two ends of the connecting plate 2 correspond to the two outermost light source modules 1 in the light source module, and the connecting plate 2 has clearance notches 24 formed at both ends to make way for the light source 12.
[0020] The light source module is connected to an external power source via a connecting plate 2. The connecting plate 2 can be connected to an external power source in the following two ways: In this embodiment, the connecting plate 2 is a double-sided aluminum substrate.
[0021] Method 1: The connecting plate 2 extends laterally at the upper end and / or lower end on the side facing away from the light source module to form a connecting end 22, and a third soldering pad 221 is formed on the connecting end 22 for welding a power wire connected to an external power supply, and the third soldering pad 221 is conductive with each second soldering pad 21. Figure 1 Two upper and lower third pads 221 are shown above.
[0022] Method 2: Using the same contact method as the first solder pad 13 and the second solder pad 21. The connecting plate 2 is formed with a fourth solder pad 23 on the side facing away from the light source module and corresponding to each second solder pad 21. The fourth solder pad 23 is conductively connected to the corresponding second solder pad 21 and is used to contact and conduct with the solder pad on the external adapter board to connect to the external power supply.
[0023] Furthermore, the present invention includes a pair of auxiliary connecting brackets 5, located on the back side of the light source module and on either side of the connecting bracket 3. The auxiliary connecting brackets 5 and each light source module 1 have corresponding threaded holes, and each light source module 1 is secured to the auxiliary connecting brackets 5 via screws. The connecting bracket 3 and the auxiliary connecting brackets 5 each have fixing holes for securing the light source module to the lamp body. The connecting bracket 3 and the auxiliary connecting brackets 5 have the same structure.
