[0035] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a lampshade includes a lampshade body 1, the interior of which forms an accommodating space for accommodating a light source 2. The lampshade body 1 includes a support 11 that can rotate relative to the light source 2. A plurality of cover plates 12 are arranged around the periphery of the support 11. The cover plates 12 are movably disposed relative to the support 11, so that the lampshade body 1 has a first shape and a second shape relative to the light source 2. When the lampshade body 1 is in the first shape, all the cover plates 12 are in an enclosed state relative to the light source 2. When the lampshade body 1 is in the second shape, all the cover plates 12 are in an unfolded state relative to the light source 2. The rotation center axis of the support 11 is coaxial with the center axis of the light source 2.

[0036] Based on the above embodiments, the present invention aims to provide a lampshade, including a lampshade body 1. The lampshade body 1 has an internal accommodating space for housing a light source 2. The lampshade body 1 includes a support 11 that can rotate relative to the light source 2. A plurality of cover plates 12 are arranged around the periphery of the support 11. The cover plates 12 are movably disposed relative to the support 11, allowing the lampshade body 1 to have a first form and a second form relative to the light source 2. The lampshade body 1 of the present invention can rotate relative to the light source under external force. The lampshade body 1 has two forms: when the lampshade body 1 is in the first form, all the cover plates 12 are in a closed state relative to the light source 2; when the lampshade body 1 is in the second form, all the cover plates 12 are in an open state relative to the light source 2. Customers can choose different forms of the lampshade body 1 according to their preferences, enhancing the aesthetics of the lampshade.

[0037] In a further embodiment, the bracket 11 is connected to a bracket reinforcement frame 13, which is used to improve the firmness of the bracket 11 and help extend the service life of the lampshade.

[0038] In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, the lampshade body 1 further includes a connector 14, the light source 2 is connected to the connector 14, the bracket 11 is movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the connector 14, the first end of the connector 14 extends into the accommodating space, and the second end of the connector 14 extends out of the bracket 11. At least one end of the lampshade body 1 is provided with the connector 14, the first end of the connector 14 is provided with a first connecting portion, the second end of the connector 14 is provided with a second connecting portion, and the light source 2 is connected to the first connecting portion. In this embodiment, the first connecting portion of the connector 14 is an externally threaded post with external threads, the second connecting portion of the connector 14 is an internally threaded hole with internal threads, and the end of the light source 2 is provided with an internally threaded hole that is screwed into the externally threaded post. In a further embodiment, the lampshade body 1 can be installed in multiple ways via the connector 14. For example, it can be connected to a tripod via the connector 14 at the bottom of the lampshade body 1. Specifically, the second connecting part of the connector 14 is an internally threaded hole, and the tripod is provided with an externally threaded post that screws into the internally threaded hole, thereby achieving stable installation of the camping lamp. Alternatively, it can be connected to a pull ring via the connector 14 at the top of the lampshade body 1. Specifically, the second connecting part of the connector 14 is an internally threaded hole, and the pull ring is provided with an externally threaded post that screws into the internally threaded hole, thereby facilitating the carrying and hanging of the camping lamp and making it more convenient to use. Furthermore, multiple lampshade bodies 1 can be connected in series via the second connecting part of the connector 14, further enhancing the aesthetics of the camping lamp. In a further preferred embodiment, for ease of installation, the connection structure between the connector 14 and the pull ring, the tripod, and the light source 2 all use the same specification of thread, such as a 1 / 4" thread.

[0039] In a further embodiment, the upper and lower ends of the lampshade body 1 have the same structure, so that the lampshade body 1 can be installed in the forward direction or in the reverse direction, thereby realizing that the cover plate 12 can be unfolded to the left or to the right relative to the light source 2.

[0040] In a further embodiment, the cover plate 12 is provided with a hollowed-out mesh to increase the light transmittance of the cover plate 12; or, the cover plate 12 is made of transparent material to increase the light transmittance of the cover plate 12, and stickers of various shapes and colors can be attached to the transparent material cover plate 12. When the lampshade body 1 is in the second form, the lampshade body 1 rotates with the wind like a windmill. At this time, the camping lamp will also project brilliant light, creating an atmosphere and making the camping lamp highly ornamental.

[0041] In a further embodiment, the rotation center axis of the bracket 11 is coaxial with the center axis of the light source 2, so that the lampshade body 1 can rotate around the circumference of the light source 2.

[0042] In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, a bearing 3 is provided between the bracket 11 and the connecting member 14. The bearing 3 is fixed inside the bracket 11, the connecting member 14 is slidably engaged with the bearing 3, and a return spring 4 is abutting between the connecting member 14 and the bearing 3. The return spring 4 causes the connecting member 14 to always have a tendency to move away from the accommodating space along the axial direction. The connecting member 14 is provided with a locking and limiting member 5 that is limited and engaged with the bracket 11 or the bearing 3. In this embodiment, as... Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the bearing 3 makes the rotation of the lampshade body 1 relative to the bracket 11 more stable and smooth. Specifically, the inner ring of the bearing 3 is clearance-fitted with the connecting member 14, allowing the connecting member 14 to slide relative to the bearing 3 under the elastic action of the return spring 4. In a further embodiment, as... Figure 3 and Figure 8As shown, the end of the connector 14 furthest from the light source 2 has a stepped portion 141. The return spring 4 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connector 14, with one end of the return spring 4 abutting against the stepped portion 141 and the other end abutting against the bearing 3, so that the connector 14 always has a tendency to move away from the light source 2. In this embodiment, the return spring 4 is used to eject the connector 14, which passes through the bracket 11, in both upward and downward directions when the light source 2 is not installed inside the lampshade body 1, so that the accommodating space is as large as possible to facilitate the installation of the light source 2. In a further embodiment, the anti-detachment limiting member 5 is a retaining ring, which cooperates with the bearing 3 to limit the connection and prevent the connector 14 from detaching from the bracket 11 under the elastic force of the return spring 4. Of course, in other embodiments, the retaining ring can also be directly positioned against the bracket 11. Specifically, the bracket 11 is provided with a through hole 111 through which the connector 14 passes. The end of the connector 14 near the light source 2 passes through the through hole 111 and is fixedly connected to the light source 2. The retaining ring is fixedly disposed at the end of the connector 14 near the light source 2, and the outer diameter of the retaining ring is larger than the diameter of the through hole 111. In some other embodiments, the anti-detachment limiting member 5 can also be a limiting pin or a limiting protrusion disposed on the connector 14.

[0043] As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the bracket 11 has a perforated hole 112. In this embodiment, the switch of the light source 2 is positioned corresponding to the hole 112. The hole 112 facilitates the user's operation of turning the light source 2 on and off. In a further embodiment, the diameter of the hole 112 should be large enough to accommodate the user's finger, so that the user can turn the light source 2 on and off directly with their finger without the need for tools.

[0044] In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cover plate 12 is rotatably connected to the bracket 11, and the rotational axis of the cover plate 12 relative to the bracket 11 is parallel to the central axis of the light source 2. The cover plate 12 is hinged to the bracket 11 by bolts 6, and a nylon gasket 7 is provided between the bracket 11 and the cover plate 12. In this embodiment, as... Figure 7As shown, bolt 6, while providing a connection, also provides a rotation axis for the cover plate 12. When the cover plate 12 needs to be unfolded relative to the light source 2, the cover plate 12 rotates around bolt 6. A nylon gasket 7 is provided between the bracket 11 and the cover plate 12. The nylon gasket 7 reduces wear between the bracket 11 and the cover plate 12, and also provides damping force, allowing the cover plate 12 to be unfolded to any angle relative to the bracket 11 and to stop at any angle. When the lampshade body 1 is in the second form, all the cover plates 12 are unfolded relative to the light source 2. At this time, the unfolded cover plates 12 can rotate relative to the light source 2 under the action of external force. For example, rotating under the action of wind produces light and shadow effects, greatly enhancing the visual appeal of the camping lamp.

[0045] In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cover plate 12 includes a cover plate body 121, and a first bent portion 122 and a second bent portion 123 bent inwardly at both ends of the cover plate body 121. When the lampshade body 1 is in the first state, the second bent portion 123 of the adjacent cover plate 12 overlaps and cooperates with the first bent portion 122. The second bent portion 123 is provided with a protrusion 1231 protruding from the cover plate body 121. When the lampshade body 1 is in the second state, the protrusion 1231 abuts against the edge of the bracket 11 to limit the maximum opening angle of the cover plate 12. In this embodiment, as... Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 11 is triangularly arranged, and the cover plate 12 has three pieces, which are respectively connected to the three corners of the bracket 11. In other preferred embodiments, the bracket 11 can also be designed as other polygons, with the same number of cover plates 12. In a further embodiment, the included angles between the first bending portion 122, the second bending portion 123 and the cover plate body 121 are equal, so that when the lampshade body 1 is in the first form, the second bending portion 123 of the adjacent cover plate 12 can overlap and cooperate with the first bending portion 122. The protrusion 1231 is provided to limit the maximum opening angle of the cover plate 12, prevent the cover plate 12 from opening too much, and ensure that the opening angle of the cover plate 12 is consistent.

[0046] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
