[0038] This embodiment provides a container, which may be a refrigerator capable of refrigeration; of course, in other embodiments, the container may also be a storage cabinet that cannot be refrigerated, or a storage cabinet that can be heated, etc., which is not specifically limited here.

[0039] The container includes a cabinet body, a shelf 020 and a lighting mechanism 010. The cabinet body has a cargo compartment for storing items. The shelf 020 is arranged in the cargo compartment. The lighting mechanism 010 is assembled on the shelf 020 for illuminating the cargo compartment. Figure 1 The structure shown in FIG only includes the shelf 020 and the lighting mechanism 010 .

[0040] It should be noted that the structure of the cabinet and the shelf 020 is similar to that of the related art and will not be described in detail here; among them, the shelf 020 can also be used to place items stored in the warehouse.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 In order to improve the lighting range in the warehouse, the lighting mechanism 010 of this embodiment includes a lamp body 100 and a light source assembly 200. The lamp body 100 includes a first light emitting surface 120, a second light emitting surface 130 and a lamp body 110. The lamp body 110 has an installation space 111. The first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130 are both connected to the lamp body 110. The installation space 111 is located between the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130. The lamp body 110 is used to be assembled in an assembly position. Specifically, the lamp body 110 is assembled on the shelf 020, that is, the shelf 020 is Assembly position; the light source assembly 200 is arranged in the installation space 111; wherein, the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130 are both used to make the light emitted by the light source assembly 200 emit out of the installation space 111, and the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130 are located on both sides of the connection between the lamp body 110 and the assembly position, that is, the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130 are located on both sides of the connection between the lamp body 110 and the shelf 020, the first light emitting surface 120 is used to emit light to the top of the shelf 020, and the second light emitting surface 130 is used to emit light to the bottom of the shelf 020.

[0042] The lamp body 100 has a first light emitting surface 120 and a second light emitting surface 130 with different light emitting directions, and the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130 are located on both sides of the lamp body 110. The first light emitting surface 120 is used to emit light above the shelf 020, and the second light emitting surface 130 is used to emit light below the shelf 020. In this way, the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130 with different light emitting directions can be used to increase the area covered by the lighting, so as to reduce the space inside the container that cannot be illuminated, thereby improving the user experience.

[0043] Furthermore, the first light emitting surface 120 is located above the second light emitting surface 130. The first light emitting surface 120 is configured to emit light obliquely upward, and the inclined direction is toward the shelf 020, while the second light emitting surface 130 is configured to emit light vertically downward. In this way, the warehouse can be illuminated as much as possible, that is, the upper part, lower part, and interior of the warehouse can be illuminated, thereby improving the user experience.

[0044] Furthermore, the light source assembly 200 includes a first light source board 210 and a second light source board 220. The first light source board 210 and the second light source board 220 are both inserted into the installation space 111, and the first light source board 210 is arranged opposite to the first light exit surface 120, and the second light source board 220 is arranged opposite to the second light exit surface 130. This arrangement enables the light emitted by the first light source board 210 and the second light source board 220 to be reliably emitted from the corresponding first light exit surface 120 and second light exit surface 130, thereby ensuring the brightness of the lighting.

[0045] The structures of the first light source board 210 and the second light source board 220 are similar to those in related technologies, for example, they include a lamp board and lamp beads connected to the lamp board, the lamp board is connected to the lamp body 110, and the lamp beads of the first light source board 210 and the second light source board 220 are respectively distributed toward the corresponding first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130.

[0046] Optionally, the inner wall of the lamp body 110 is connected with a first slide groove 113 and a second slide groove 114, the first light source board 210 is plugged into the first slide groove 113, and the second light source board 220 is plugged into the second slide groove 114; in this way, the easy assembly of the first light source board 210 and the second light source board 220 can be ensured.

[0047] Of course, in other embodiments, the first light source board 210 and the second light source board 220 may also be connected to the inner wall of the lamp body 110 by bonding, screws, etc.

[0048] Optionally, the angle between the orientation of the first light emitting surface 120 and the orientation of the second light emitting surface 130 can be set as needed, for example, to 100°, 120°, 135°, etc., which is greater than 90°, and is not specifically limited here.

[0049] Optionally, the lamp body 100 can be prepared using a two-color extrusion process; the lamp body 110 is made of a light-shielding material, that is, only the first light-emitting surface 120 and the second light-emitting surface 130 of the lighting mechanism 010 can transmit light, so as to ensure the brightness of the light by concentrating the light.

[0050] In order to improve the operability of disassembling and assembling the lighting mechanism 010 on the shelf 020; please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lamp body 110 is provided with a buckle 140, which is engaged in the assembly position, that is, the buckle 140 is detachably engaged with the shelf 020. When disassembling the lighting mechanism 010, it is only necessary to deform the buckle 140 to engage with the shelf 020 or to remove it from the shelf 020, thereby realizing quick installation and removal and facilitating maintenance and replacement.

[0051] The connection methods of the buckle 140 and the lamp body 110 include but are not limited to integral molding, bonding, and connection with bolts.

[0052] Optionally, along the vertical direction, the buckle 140 is located between the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130, that is, the first light emitting surface 120 and the second light emitting surface 130 are located on both sides of the buckle 140, so as to avoid the setting of the buckle 140 interfering with light emission, thereby ensuring the improvement of lighting brightness.

[0053] Optionally, the lamp body 110 is configured to slide relative to the assembly position, that is, it can slide relative to the shelf 020. Since the lamp body 110 is connected to the shelf 020 through the buckle 140, a sliding assembly relationship is formed between the buckle 140 and the shelf 020. The lamp body 110 can slide on the shelf 020, which can adjust the lighting position to further expand the lighting range and reduce the lighting blind spots in the warehouse. Please refer to Figure 3 For example, the shelf 020 is connected to the slide rail 400 , the buckle 140 is engaged with the slide rail 400 , and can slide along the slide rail 400 .

[0054] Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the lighting mechanism 010 also includes an end cover 300, and the lamp body 110 is also provided with an installation port 112 connected to the installation space 111, and the installation port 112 is used to assemble the light source assembly 200 in the installation space 111; the end cover 300 includes an end cover body 310 and a sealing member 320 connected to the end cover body 310, the end cover body 310 is connected to the lamp body 110, and the sealing member 320 is abutted at the installation port 112 to prevent water vapor from entering the installation space 111. The setting of the mounting port 112 ensures the easy assembly of the light source assembly 200, that is, when assembling the light source assembly 200, the first light source board 210 and the second light source board 220 can be respectively inserted into the first slide groove 113 and the second slide groove 114 through the mounting port 112; the end cover body 310 is connected to the end of the lamp body 110, and the sealing member 320 connected to the end cover body 310 is abutted against the mounting port 112, that is, abutted against the end of the lamp body 110, thereby effectively sealing the installation space 111 and preventing water vapor from entering the installation space 111.

[0055] Furthermore, the seal 320 is made of a flexible material (e.g., TPE thermoplastic elastomer), and the end cap body 310 is made of a hard material (e.g., PC polycarbonate). The seal 320 and the end cap body 310 are integrally injection-molded. The seal 320, which is integrally molded and overmolded on the end cap body 310, seals the installation space 111. Compared to the related art method of using silicone glue potting or gluing to seal the gap between the end cap body 310 and the lamp body 110, this method simplifies the process and avoids the problem of difficult gluing. It also improves the problem of irregular and difficult-to-control shapes after molding due to the fluidity of silicone, and avoids the problem of flying glue, thereby improving the aesthetics of the lighting mechanism 010.

[0056] Of course, in other embodiments, the end cover body 310 and the sealing member 320 may also be injection molded separately and then assembled together, which is not specifically limited here.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 7 In this embodiment, the end cap body 310 is provided with a first through-hole 311, and the sealing member 320 is provided with a second through-hole 321. The first through-hole 311 and the second through-hole 321 are in communication. The light source assembly 200 is connected to the conductive wire 230, which is electrically connected (e.g., soldered) to the first and second light source boards 210 and 220 to supply power to the first and second light source boards 210 and 220. The conductive wire 230 is sequentially passed through the first and second through-holes 311 and 321, and has an interference fit with the sealing member 320. This configuration improves the sealing and waterproofing properties by utilizing the interference fit between the sealing member 320 and the conductive wire 230, thereby alleviating the problem of moisture entering the installation space 111 through the first and second through-holes 311 and 321.

[0058] The connection method between the end cap body 310 and the lamp body 110 can be selected as needed; please refer to Figure 8 In this embodiment, the lighting mechanism 010 further includes a fastener 330 and a sealing ring 340. The end cap body 310 is connected to the lamp body 110 via the fastener 330, and the sealing ring 320 is tightly pressed against the mounting opening 112. The sealing ring 340 is sleeved on the fastener 330 and clamped between the head of the fastener 330 and the end cap body 310. The fastener 330 includes, but is not limited to, a bolt. Connecting the end cap body 310 to the lamp body 110 via the fastener 330 ensures the stability of the connection between the end cap body 310 and the lamp body 110 and ensures that the sealing ring 320 can be reliably pressed against the mounting opening 112 of the lamp body 110 to ensure a good sealing effect. Furthermore, the provision of the sealing ring 340 between the head of the fastener 330 and the end cap body 310 can further improve the sealing effect, thereby enabling the lighting mechanism 010 to achieve a waterproof rating of IP65.

[0059] Of course, in other embodiments, the end cover body 310 can also be connected to the lamp body 110 by means of snap connection, bonding, etc.

[0060] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, mounting openings 112 are provided at both ends of the length extension direction of the lamp body 110, and the lighting mechanism 010 includes two end covers 300, one of which is used to pass the conductive wire 230, that is, only the end cover body 310 of one of the end covers 300 is provided with a first through hole 311, and the corresponding seal 320 is provided with a second through hole 321.

[0061] Of course, in other embodiments, the lamp body 110 is only provided with a mounting opening 112 at one end, and the other end is a closed end. It can be understood that the end cover 300 for passing the conductive wire 230 is connected to the lamp body 110 through a fastener 330, and the end cover body 310 of the other end cover 300 is integrally formed with the lamp body 110.

[0062] In summary, the lighting mechanism 010 of the present invention can, on the one hand, increase the lighting area and improve the problem of large lighting blind spots in the container; on the other hand, it is easy to disassemble and assemble; and on the other hand, it can effectively prevent water.

[0063] The above is only a specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with this technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
