Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of navigational beacon lights, and more particularly to a navigational beacon light fixture. Background Technology
[0002] Navigation lights, as an important component of navigation aids, are crucial for guiding ships to avoid obstacles, maintain correct course, and ensure navigational safety. Traditional navigation lights typically have a fixed vertical divergence angle, that is, the range of light diffusion in the vertical direction. However, in practical applications, because navigation aids may be set on different types of facilities such as buoys or beacons, and the height, shape, and surrounding environment of these facilities may vary, a fixed vertical divergence angle is often insufficient to meet the lighting needs in all situations.
[0003] Therefore, there is a need for a navigation light that can easily adjust the vertical divergence angle to be flexibly applied to buoys or beacons. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to facilitate the adjustment of the vertical divergence angle for flexible application to buoys or beacons, this application provides a navigation light device.
[0005] This application provides a navigation light device, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A navigation light includes a mounting base, a polyhedral lamp holder, a circuit board, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), a diffuser, and a drum-shaped lens. The polyhedral lamp holder is mounted at the center of the mounting base. The number of circuit boards is equal to the number of faces of the polyhedral lamp holder, and they are arranged one-to-one on each face. The number of LEDs corresponds one-to-one with the number of circuit boards, and they are electrically connected to the circuit boards. The diffuser covers the polyhedral lamp holder, is limited and abuts against the mounting base, and is detachably connected to the polyhedral lamp holder. The drum-shaped lens covers the outside of the diffuser, is limited and abuts against the mounting base, and is detachably connected to the polyhedral lamp holder.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the LEDs are positioned on multiple sides to ensure that the light can be evenly emitted from multiple directions, significantly improving the illumination effect and coverage of the navigation light. The diffuser allows the light emitted by the LEDs to be diffused more evenly into the surrounding environment, reducing blind spots and improving the visibility of the navigation light. At the same time, the drum-shaped lens design further enhances the focusing and guiding performance of the light, allowing the light to more effectively illuminate the target area and improving the indication function of the navigation light. When used for buoys, the diffuser is installed, and the vertical divergence angle can reach 10 degrees, which meets the requirements for buoys. When used for beacons, the diffuser is not used, and the vertical emission angle is 4 degrees, which meets the requirements for beacons. Therefore, by flexibly installing the diffuser, the vertical divergence angle can be easily adjusted to flexibly adapt to either buoys or beacons.
[0008] Optionally, the mounting base has a periphery with an edge portion, and the outer periphery of the drum-shaped lens is limited and abuts against the inner periphery of the edge portion.
[0009] Optionally, it also includes a first bolt, wherein each face of the polyhedral lamp holder is provided with a first threaded hole, and the circuit board is provided with a first through hole corresponding to the first threaded hole. The first bolt passes through the first through hole and is screwed into the first threaded hole, and the nut of the first bolt abuts against the circuit board.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the circuit board can be easily installed on the polyhedral lamp holder.
[0011] Optionally, at least two first through holes are spaced apart along the length of the circuit board, and the first threaded hole and the first bolt are respectively provided corresponding to the first through holes.
[0012] Optionally, it also includes a top seat and a second bolt. The polyhedral lamp holder has a second bolt hole. The top seat is fitted onto the side of the drum-shaped lens away from the mounting base. The diffuser cover abuts against the inner side of the top seat on the side away from the mounting base. The top seat has a second through hole. The diffuser cover has a third through hole. The second bolt passes through the second through hole and the third through hole in sequence and is screwed into the second bolt hole. The nut of the second bolt abuts against the top seat.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the drum-shaped lens and the diffuser are limited by the top seat, and the drum-shaped lens and the diffuser are fixed at the same time by the second bolt, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the drum-shaped lens and the diffuser.
[0014] Optionally, the inner circumferential side of the top seat is provided with an abutment groove, and the drum-shaped lens abuts against the abutment groove.
[0015] Optionally, it also includes a support column, one end of which is connected to a first connecting part, the first connecting part being provided with an external thread, the mounting base having a first connecting hole, the polyhedral lamp holder having a third threaded hole on the side opposite to the second threaded hole, the first connecting part passing through the first connecting hole and screwed into the third threaded hole, and the end face of the support column abutting against the outer wall surface of the mounting base.
[0016] Optionally, it also includes a base, which has a fourth threaded hole, and a second connecting part is connected to one end of the support column opposite to the first connecting part. The second connecting part is provided with an external thread and is screwed into the fourth threaded hole.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the polyhedral lamp holder can be easily fixed to the base through the support column, and the base can easily fix the navigation light in the required position.
[0018] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:
[0019] 1. The multi-faceted placement of LEDs ensures uniform light distribution from multiple directions, significantly improving the illumination effect and coverage of the navigation light. The diffuser allows the light emitted by the LEDs to diffuse more evenly into the surrounding environment, reducing blind spots and improving the visibility of the navigation light. Simultaneously, the drum-shaped lens design further enhances the focusing and guiding performance of the light, enabling it to more effectively illuminate the target area and improve the navigation light's indicative function. When used for buoys, the diffuser is installed, achieving a vertical divergence angle of 10 degrees, meeting the requirements for buoys. When used for beacons, the diffuser is not used, resulting in a vertical emission angle of 4 degrees, meeting the requirements for beacons. Therefore, by flexibly installing the diffuser, the vertical divergence angle can be easily adjusted for flexible application to either buoys or beacons.
[0020] 2. The drum-shaped lens and the diffuser are limited by the top seat, and the drum-shaped lens and the diffuser are fixed at the same time by the second bolt, which can facilitate the installation and disassembly of the drum-shaped lens and the diffuser;
[0021] 3. The support column allows for easy fixing of the polyhedral lamp holder to the base, and the base allows for easy fixing of the navigation light in the required position. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.
[0027] This application discloses a navigation light device. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The navigation light includes a mounting base 1, a polyhedral lamp holder 2, a circuit board 3, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) 4, a diffuser 5, and a drum-shaped lens 6. In this embodiment, the polyhedral lamp holder 2 is a dodecahedral prism lamp holder made of aluminum alloy, with a base side length of 8.7mm, a height of 29mm, and a side-to-side distance of 32.5mm. The number of circuit boards 3 is equal to the number of faces of the polyhedral lamp holder 2. There are 12 circuit boards 3, each corresponding to one of the faces. The dimensions of the circuit boards 3 are 7mm wide, 25mm long, and 1mm thick. The number of LEDs 4 corresponds one-to-one with the number of circuit boards 3, that is, there are also 12 LEDs 4, which are electrically connected to the circuit boards 3. The LEDs 4 are soldered to the circuit boards 3 and are located at the center of the circuit boards 3, so that the included angle between adjacent LEDs 4 is 30 degrees, forming a polygonal light source on the dodecahedral polyhedral lamp holder 2. In this embodiment, the LEDs 4 are connected by wires and are divided into two groups, each group consisting of six adjacent LEDs 4 connected in series to form a complete circuit.
[0028] Reference Figure 2 The polyhedral lamp holder 2 is inserted into the center of the mounting base 1. The diffuser 5 is placed over the polyhedral lamp holder 2, with its limit abutting against the mounting base 1, and is detachably mounted to the polyhedral lamp holder 2. The drum-shaped lens 6 is placed over the outside of the diffuser 5, with its limit abutting against the mounting base 1, and is detachably mounted to the polyhedral lamp holder 2. When it needs to be installed on a buoy, the diffuser 5 and the drum-shaped lens 6 are installed in sequence, and the vertical divergence angle can reach 10 degrees, which meets the requirements for buoys. When it needs to be installed on a light beacon, only the drum-shaped lens 6 needs to be installed. If the diffuser 5 has already been installed, it can also be removed, and the vertical divergence angle can reach 4 degrees, which meets the requirements for light beacons. Therefore, by installing and removing the diffuser 5, the vertical divergence angle of the navigation light can be easily changed, making it flexibly applicable to buoys or light beacons.
[0029] Continue to refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the mounting base 1 has an integrally formed edge portion 7 on its periphery, and the outer periphery of the drum-shaped lens 6 is limited and abuts against the inner periphery of the edge portion 7. When a diffuser shroud 5 is installed, the outer periphery of the diffuser shroud 5 abuts against the inner periphery of the drum-shaped lens 6, so that it can be installed stably.
[0030] In some embodiments, the beacon light also includes a first bolt 8, a multi-faceted lamp holder 2 with a first threaded hole 9 on each side, and a first through hole corresponding to the first threaded hole 9 on the circuit board 3. The first bolt 8 passes through the first through hole and is screwed into the first threaded hole 9, with the nut of the first bolt 8 abutting against the circuit board 3. This allows for convenient installation of the circuit board 3.
[0031] In some embodiments, at least two first through holes are spaced apart along the length of the circuit board 3, and the first threaded hole 9 and the first bolt 8 are respectively provided corresponding to the first through holes. In this embodiment, two first through holes are provided for each circuit board 3, located 3mm away from both ends of the circuit board 3. This allows for more stable fixation of the circuit board 3.
[0032] In some embodiments, the navigation light also includes a top seat 10 and a second bolt 11. The polyhedral lamp holder 2 has a hole for the second bolt 11. The top seat 10 is fitted onto the side of the drum-shaped lens 6 facing away from the mounting base 1, and the diffuser 5, facing away from the mounting base 1, abuts against the inner side of the top seat 10, allowing for simultaneous positioning and fixation of the drum-shaped lens 6 and the diffuser 5. The top seat 10 has a second through hole, and the diffuser 5 has a third through hole. The second bolt 11 passes through the second through hole and the third through hole in sequence, and is then screwed into the hole for the second bolt 11. The nut of the second bolt 11 abuts against the top seat 10.
[0033] When installation is required, simply put the diffuser 5 and the drum lens 6 in sequence, then put the top seat 10 on the drum lens 6, and then fix it with the second bolt 11. When the diffuser 5 is not needed, the second bolt 11 can be removed directly to take out the diffuser 5 and reinstall the drum lens 6. This makes it easy to install and remove the diffuser 5, and it can be flexibly applied to light floats or light stakes.
[0034] In some embodiments, an abutment groove 12 is provided on the inner circumferential side of the top seat 10, and the drum-shaped lens 6 abuts in the abutment groove 12. The abutment groove 12 can conveniently and stably limit and fix the drum-shaped lens 6.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the navigation light also includes a support column 13, which is a hollow cylindrical structure. One end of the support column 13 is integrally connected to a first connecting part 14, which has an external thread. The mounting base 1 has a first connecting hole 15, and the polyhedral lamp holder 2 has a third threaded hole 17 on the side opposite to the second threaded hole 16. The first connecting part 14 passes through the first connecting hole 15 and is screwed into the third threaded hole 17. The end face of the support column 13 abuts against the outer wall of the mounting base 1. The support column 13 can easily fix the mounting base 1 and the polyhedral lamp holder 2 together, and can also easily disassemble them.
[0036] In some embodiments, the navigation light also includes a base 18, which has a fourth threaded hole 19. A second connecting part 20 is connected to the end of the support column 13 opposite to the first connecting part 14. The second connecting part 20 has an external thread and is screwed into the fourth threaded hole 19. The support column 13 can be easily installed or removed, and the base 18 can be easily fixed in the desired position. (See reference...) Figure 3 In this embodiment, the base 18 has several through holes, threaded holes and slots, which makes it easy to fix the base 18.
[0037] The implementation principle of a navigation light in this embodiment is as follows: The LEDs 4 are arranged on multiple surfaces to ensure uniform light emission from multiple directions, significantly improving the illumination effect and coverage of the navigation light. The diffuser 5 allows the light emitted by the LEDs 4 to diffuse more evenly into the surrounding environment, reducing blind spots and improving the visibility of the navigation light. Simultaneously, the design of the drum-shaped lens 6 further enhances the focusing and guiding performance of the light, enabling it to more effectively illuminate the target area and improving the navigation light's indicating function. When used for buoys, the diffuser 5 is installed, achieving a vertical divergence angle of 10 degrees, meeting the requirements for buoys. When used for beacons, the diffuser 5 is not used, resulting in a vertical emission angle of 4 degrees, meeting the requirements for beacons. Therefore, by flexibly installing the diffuser 5, the vertical divergence angle can be easily adjusted for flexible application to either buoys or beacons.
[0038] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
