[0002] LED light strips, also known as LED light bars, are lighting products that incorporate LEDs assembled on a strip of flexible printed circuit (FPC) or PCB. They are named for their resemblance to a ribbon. Conventional LED light strips on the market are typically packaged with a casing, casing sealant, plasticized colloid, or extruded colloid to ensure waterproofing. However, casing packaging offers limited waterproofing. While casing sealant or extruded colloid offer better waterproofing, these packaging methods result in oversized LED light strips and poor flexibility. Furthermore, these packaging methods are not only costly but also significantly reduce the strip's flexibility and make them inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0020] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] This embodiment relates to a waterproof light strip, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 , including: a light strip body 100 and a flexible film layer 200. The flexible film layer 200 is wrapped around the outer layer of the light strip body 100. The design of the flexible film layer 200 has both excellent waterproof performance and high flexibility. This feature prevents the waterproof light strip from entering water and dust and other debris when working in outdoor or humid environments, thereby preventing it from affecting its normal lighting work. The flexible film layer 200 has high flexibility, thereby ensuring the extensibility of the waterproof light strip and the possibility of folding and storing it, so that it can adapt to more complex wiring environments. A light-transmitting surface 221 is provided on the side of the flexible film layer 200 corresponding to the light-emitting direction of the light strip body 100 to ensure that the light emitted by the light strip body 100 can pass through the flexible film layer 200. Compared with the outer layer of the light strips on the market that use sleeve sealing and colloid extrusion to wrap the light strip body 100, the outer layer of this waterproof light strip adopts the design of flexible film layer 200, which is relatively thin and can be tightly attached to the light strip body 100. It has better light transmittance and superior flexibility.

[0024] Furthermore, the flexible membrane layer 200 includes: a first membrane 210 and a second membrane 220. The first membrane 210 is arranged on the bottom surface of the light strip body 100, that is, the first membrane 210 serves as a base membrane; the second membrane 220 is arranged on the side of the light strip body 100 in the light-emitting direction; the second membrane 220 is provided with a light-transmitting surface 221; that is, the second membrane 220 serves as a light-emitting membrane; the first membrane 210 and the second membrane 220 together enclose a space for the light strip body 100 to be placed. Compared with the sleeve, the double-layer membrane has better flexibility; compared with the sleeve sealing and colloid extrusion, the double-layer membrane design avoids the impact of problems such as uneven colloid or the presence of bubbles on light transmittance, and avoids the aging and shedding of the colloid affecting the structural strength and durability of the entire waterproof light strip. Specifically, the second membrane 220 is provided with a transparent structure to allow the light emitted by the light strip body 100 to pass through. In other embodiments, the second diaphragm 220 may also be provided with a frosted light-transmitting structure. The second diaphragm 220 only needs to be provided with a light-transmitting structure that allows the light emitted by the light strip body 100 to pass through. The light-transmitting structure is not limited to a transparent structure.

[0025] The material of the first diaphragm 210 is any one of the five kinds of TPU, silicone, ABS glue, PE glue and PU glue. The material of the second diaphragm 220 is any one of the five kinds of TPU, silicone, ABS glue, PE glue and PU glue. In this embodiment, the material of the first diaphragm 210 is TPU, and the material of the second diaphragm 220 is TPU. TPU is a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, which has high transparency, good elasticity, easy processing, excellent wear resistance, and good oil resistance and chemical resistance. The excellent wear resistance of the first diaphragm 210 and the second diaphragm 220 resists the wear and scratches of daily use, thereby extending the service life of the waterproof light strip. The high transparency of the second diaphragm 220 ensures that the light emitted by the light strip body 100 can pass through, avoiding affecting the light color of the light strip body 100 after passing through the second diaphragm 220.

[0026] In other embodiments, the first diaphragm 210 may also be made of silicone, ABS glue, PE glue, or PU glue. The second diaphragm 220 may also be made of silicone, ABS glue, PE glue, or PU glue.

[0027] Furthermore, the thickness of the second diaphragm 220 is 0.1mm-0.3mm. In the present embodiment, the thickness of the second diaphragm 220 is 0.1mm. The thickness of the second diaphragm 220 is relatively thin, ensuring good light transmission effect and flexibility. In other embodiments, the thickness of the second diaphragm 220 can also be: 0.125mm, 0.15mm, 0.175mm, 0.2mm, 0.225mm, 0.25mm, 0.275mm, 0.3mm. It is sufficient that the thickness of the second diaphragm 220 is selected in the range of 0.1mm-0.3mm, and no specific limitation is made here. Preferably, the thickness of the second diaphragm 220 is 0.1mm. In the present embodiment, the first diaphragm 210 serves as the base diaphragm, and there is no specific limitation on its thickness. It can be adaptively adjusted according to user needs and process.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first and second membranes 210 and 220 are bonded together using a hot pressing process. This process is conventional technology, and its basic principle is to apply pressure at a certain temperature to cause plastic deformation or adhesion of materials, and then maintain the desired shape or properties after cooling. In this embodiment, the first and second membranes 210 and 220 are bonded together using a hot pressing process, which is simple to process and easy to assemble, ensuring that the two membranes fit tightly together, forming a waterproof barrier that protects the light strip body 100.

[0029] In some embodiments, an adhesive layer is further provided between the first diaphragm 210 and the second diaphragm 220. Specifically, to further ensure good waterproof properties of the flexible membrane layer 200, an adhesive layer may be provided at the outer edges of the first diaphragm 210 and the second diaphragm 220 to further ensure tightness between the first diaphragm 210 and the second diaphragm 220. In other embodiments, the first diaphragm 210 and the second diaphragm 220 are fully coated with an adhesive layer on one side facing the light strip body 100. During hot pressing, on the one hand, it ensures that the edge positions of the first diaphragm 210 and the second diaphragm 220 relative to the outer edge of the light strip body 100 can be tightly bonded to prevent water ingress; on the other hand, the adhesive layer can also fit tightly with the light strip body 100 to form a waterproof barrier to protect the light strip body 100, further enhancing the waterproof performance.

[0030] In this embodiment, the light strip body 100 includes a flexible circuit board 120 and light-emitting elements 110 fixed to the flexible circuit board 120. The light-emitting elements 110 and the flexible circuit board 120 are electrically connected. Multiple light-emitting elements 110 are provided and evenly fixed to the flexible circuit board 120. The flexible circuit board 120 is highly flexible and can be bent and folded. In this embodiment, the light-emitting elements 110 are LED lamp beads. In some embodiments, the light-emitting elements 110 can also be other light-emitting devices.

[0031] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , this waterproof light strip is a single strip.

[0033] This embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment, except that: in this embodiment, Figure 1 as well as Figure 4 The waterproof light strip is multi-strip, and the flexible membrane layer 200 is wrapped with multiple light strip bodies 100 arranged in parallel.
