Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an LED street light that prevents icicles from forming around the lamp body, belonging to the technical field of municipal lighting equipment. Background Technology
[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, streetlights, as an important component of urban infrastructure, have received increasing attention for their safety and reliability. In cold regions, especially in countries and regions with extremely low winter temperatures, conventional streetlights, after being turned off, suffer from poor heat dissipation due to their outer casings, causing melted snow and ice to condense into icicles at the edges. These icicles not only affect the normal function of the streetlights but can also pose serious safety hazards to pedestrians and vehicles if they fall.
[0003] Most ordinary streetlights on the market lack design features to protect against cold weather. When the streetlights are turned off, the heat dissipates rapidly, preventing melted snow from draining away and causing it to freeze on the streetlight casing. This phenomenon is particularly severe in winter, and the formation of icicles can lead to the following problems:
[0004] 1) Safety hazards: Falling icicles may hit pedestrians or vehicles, causing injury or accidents.
[0005] 2) Increased maintenance costs: In order to eliminate the safety hazards posed by icicles, urban management departments have to carry out regular maintenance and cleaning, which increases manpower and material costs.
[0006] 3) Reduced lighting effect: The accumulation of ice and snow may affect the lighting effect of street lights, reducing the safety of driving and pedestrians at night. Utility Model Content
[0007] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an LED street light that prevents icicles from forming around the lamp body, thereby solving the aforementioned technical problems.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an LED street light that prevents icicles from forming around the lamp body, comprising a lamp body, a heating element, a driving power supply, a light source board, a light source lens, a sealing pressure plate, and a light-transmitting glass; the lamp body is fixedly connected to the sealing pressure plate; a front-end placement cavity and a rear-end placement cavity are formed between the sealing pressure plate and the lamp body, the heating element, the light source board, and the light source lens are placed in the front-end placement cavity; the driving power supply is placed in the rear-end placement cavity; a concave groove is provided around the edge of the side of the lamp body away from the sealing pressure plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the heating component is a heating coil made of metal material, which can heat up rapidly after being powered on and provide stable heat.
[0010] Furthermore, the lamp body and the sealing plate are fixed with screws or clips.
[0011] Furthermore, the sealing plate has a square through groove for installing transparent glass.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] The concave groove design on the back edge of the lamp body effectively guides melting snow and ice to flow towards the lamp post connection, preventing snow and ice from flowing down the edge of the lamp housing and forming icicles. This design significantly reduces the potential safety hazards caused by icicles on streetlights in extremely cold conditions.
[0014] Integrated heating elements ensure the lamp body retains sufficient heat to prevent ice and snow from freezing within the concave grooves. Through continuous heating, the heating elements effectively prevent snowmelt from re-condensing within the grooves, thus maintaining the lamp's normal function.
[0015] By reducing the accumulation of ice and snow around streetlights, physical damage caused by the weight of ice and snow is reduced, extending the lifespan of the streetlights. At the same time, maintenance frequency is reduced, lowering operating costs. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit its scope.
[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention.
[0024] like Figures 1-5 As shown, an LED street light designed to prevent icicles from forming around the lamp body includes a lamp body 1, a heating element 2, a driving power supply 3, a light source board 4, a light source lens 5, a sealing pressure plate 6, and a light-transmitting glass 7. The lamp body 1 is fixedly connected to the sealing pressure plate 6. A front-end placement cavity and a rear-end placement cavity are formed between the sealing pressure plate 6 and the lamp body 1. The heating element 2, the light source board 4, and the light source lens 5 are placed in the front-end placement cavity. The driving power supply 3 is placed in the rear-end placement cavity. A concave groove 11 is provided around the edge of the side of the lamp body 1 away from the sealing pressure plate 6.
[0025] In this preferred embodiment, the heating component 2 is a heating coil made of metal material, which can heat up rapidly after being powered on and provide stable heat.
[0026] In this preferred embodiment, the lamp body 1 and the sealing plate 6 are fixed with screws or clips. If screws are used, corresponding screw holes are provided between the lamp body 1 and the sealing plate 6, and the two are fastened together with screws. This method is simple and easy to implement, and provides good mechanical strength. If clips are used, a clip structure is designed, and the sealing plate 6 is fastened to the lamp body 1 through clips. This method facilitates disassembly and installation, while also ensuring sealing. The clips can be designed with elastic materials to enhance the fixing effect.
