Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of street light technology, and in particular to a heat dissipation structure for LED street lights. Background Technology

[0002] Road lighting is closely related to people's production and life. With the acceleration of urbanization in my country, LED streetlights have gradually come into people's view due to their advantages such as directional light emission, low power consumption, good driving characteristics, fast response speed, high shock resistance, long service life, and green environmental protection. They have become the new generation of energy-saving light source with the greatest advantage of replacing traditional light sources in the world. Therefore, LED streetlights will become the best choice for energy-saving renovation of road lighting.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent application number 202122335461.2, entitled "A Heat Dissipation Structure Based on LED Streetlights," describes a structure comprising a streetlight base, a streetlight housing, and a streetlight top cover. An LED light is installed between the streetlight base components. The streetlight housing is mounted on the streetlight base, and the top cover is installed on the top of the streetlight housing. A heat dissipation component is provided on the streetlight base, comprising a ventilation pipe, a vent pipe, a ventilation chamber, an L-shaped pipe, a partition, and a first insect-proof net. The ventilation chamber is installed at the front end of the streetlight base, and its bottom is connected to the streetlight base and is fitted with the first insect-proof net. Multiple partitions are installed in the middle. The top sidewall of the ventilation chamber is connected to the internal space of the street lamp housing through the L-shaped pipe. The air guide pipe is installed on the street lamp base, and the end of the air guide pipe is connected to the ventilation pipe. In the above technology, heat sinks are placed on the LED lamp board to conduct heat dissipated by the lamp beads, thereby reducing the operating temperature of the LED lamp and improving the service life of the LED lamp. However, in the above technology, the heat sink is placed inside the lamp housing and is wrapped by the lamp housing. Therefore, the heat dissipated by the heat sink will still remain inside the lamp housing. This limits the temperature reduction of the LED lamp, and the cooling effect is not high.

[0045] In use: In the initial state, the solar panel 15 installed on the heat sink 10 collects solar energy, converts it into electrical energy, and transmits it to the energy storage group 80 through wires as a reserve power source. When the street light needs to work, the motor 67 starts, causing the shaft 65 to rotate, thereby moving the moving block 63 along the guide groove 62. Under the action of the connecting plate 69, the heat sink 10 opens, thereby increasing the windward area and allowing the outside cold air to enter the lamp housing better, thus removing the heat from the heat sink. A rain sensor 100 is installed on the lamp housing 6. When it rains, the heat sink 10 closes, at which time the first heat sink 41 and the second heat sink... The 42 plates will come into contact with each other, thereby transferring the heat emitted by the LED light source 20 during operation to the heat sink 10 through the first heat sink 41 and the second heat sink 42, and then cooling it with rainwater. This cooling effect is better. The function of the inverted U-shaped plate 93 and the second water channel 98 is to collect the rainwater that seeps in from the gap between the heat sink 10 and the lamp housing 6, and then guide it through the first water channel 97 to the connecting collar 3. The connecting collar 3 and the lamp post 2 are both hollow, and there is a water outlet at the bottom of the lamp post 2. This can better reduce the heat emitted by the LED light source 20 during operation and improve the service life of the street light.
