[0040] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0041] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as "set on" or "connected to" another component, it can be directly on or indirectly on that other component. When a component is referred to as "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to or indirectly connected to that other component.

[0042] It should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "bottom", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0043] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not intended to imply relative importance.

[0044] This utility model provides a lighting strip that can be installed inside products such as refrigerators and freezers for internal lighting.

[0045] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 1 The structure of the light strip 1 is the same as that of existing technology, including a light panel 101 and LED beads 102 mounted on the light panel 101. The light panel 101 is elongated, specifically rectangular, and the LED beads 102 are arranged along the length of the light panel 101. A wiring terminal 103 is provided on the light panel 101, located outside the end LED beads. The wiring terminal 103 is connected to a wire harness 5, with one end of the wiring terminal 103 being the first end of the light strip and the opposite end being the second end. The wire harness 5 is connected to an external power supply, and when the circuit is turned on, the LED beads 102 can emit light.

[0046] To organize the wire harness 5, cable ties 9 can be designed to bind the wire harness 5 and prevent it from becoming too messy.

[0047] The lighting strip provided by this utility model eliminates the lampshade 3 and the base 2, and instead provides an adhesive layer 6 on the surface of the LED beads 102. The adhesive layer 6 covers the surface of the LED beads 102, and the wiring terminals 5 are located on the outside of the adhesive layer. If the adhesive layer 5 covers the wiring terminals 5, there is a risk of affecting the normal operation of the LED beads, and it is inconvenient to repair the LED beads. Therefore, in the preferred embodiment, the adhesive layer 6 does not cover the wiring terminals 5.

[0048] The adhesive layer 6 can preferably be made of hot melt adhesive. In the LED strip manufacturing process, the LED strip can be prepared first, and then the hot melt adhesive can be melted and applied to the surface of the LED beads 102. After processing, the LED board 101 can be directly fixed inside the refrigerator or freezer.

[0049] To secure the light strip, in some embodiments of this invention, a fixing cover 7 and a fixing base 8 are designed. For ease of explanation of the light strip's structure, the side of the adhesive layer 6 opposite to the first end of the light strip is the first end of the adhesive layer 6, and the side of the adhesive layer 6 opposite to the second end of the light strip is the second end of the adhesive layer 6.

[0050] A fixing cover 7 is located at the first end of the light strip 1, and the connecting wire harness 5 extends from one end of the fixing cover 7 to the outside of the light strip. A fixing seat 8 is located at the second end of the light strip.

[0051] After the LED beads are lit, the illumination light can be emitted from the cured hot melt adhesive layer 6, achieving the illumination purpose of a common light source.

[0052] In some embodiments of this invention, the adhesive layer 6 covers the width of the lamp panel in the width direction. This structure enables a more stable lamp strip structure.

[0053] In some embodiments of this utility model, the fixing cover 7 includes an integrally formed housing portion 701 and a mounting portion 702. The housing portion 701 covers the surface of the first end of the adhesive layer 6, and the bottom surface of the housing portion 701 is attached to the surface of the lamp board 101. The mounting portion 702 is fixedly installed on the lamp board 101. The housing portion 701 forms an accommodating space, covering the end of the adhesive layer 6. On the one hand, it can fix the structure of the lamp strip and prevent the adhesive layer 6 from falling off from the lamp strip 1. On the other hand, it can also prevent moisture and other structures from entering the lamp bead and affecting the normal light emission of the lamp bead.

[0054] As a preferred structure, the housing portion 701 of the fixing cover 7 covers the rolled strip 9 and the wiring terminal 5.

[0055] In some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting part 702 is flat and fits against the upper surface of the lamp plate 101. The mounting part 702 is provided with a fixing member mounting hole 703, and the lamp plate 101 is correspondingly provided with a fixing member mounting hole. The fixing cover is fixed to the lamp plate by the fixing member. After the fixing cover 7 and the lamp plate 101 are fixed, the fixing cover 7 can be prevented from falling off.

[0056] In some embodiments of this utility model, the housing 701 includes a vertical plate, and a wire hole 704 is provided on the vertical plate, through which the wire harness 5 passes.

[0057] Similar to the structure of the fixed cover 7, in some embodiments of this utility model, the fixed base 8 includes an integrally formed shell part 801 and a mounting part 802. The shell part 801 covers the surface of the second end of the adhesive layer 6, the bottom surface of the shell part 801 is attached to the surface of the lamp board 101, and the mounting part 802 is fixedly installed with the lamp board 101.

[0058] In some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting part 802 is flat and fits against the upper surface of the lamp plate 101. The mounting part 802 is provided with a fixing member mounting hole 803, and the lamp plate 101 is correspondingly provided with a fixing member mounting hole. The fixing cover 8 is fixed to the lamp plate 101 by a fixing member. After the fixing base 8 and the lamp plate 101 are fixed, the fixing base 8 can be prevented from falling off.

[0059] In some embodiments of this invention, the portion of the adhesive layer 6 extending into the fixing cover 7 and the portion extending into the fixing base 8 has a reduced width relative to the portion of the adhesive layer covering the LED bead 102. This structure allows the end portion of the adhesive layer 6 to be secured inside the fixing cover 7 and the fixing base 8, forming a better fixing structure.

[0060] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
