Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ambient light installation, and in particular to an ambient light strip installation structure. Background Technology

[0002] Ambient lights, also known as LED ambient lights, are tools that provide variable lighting for hotels, homes, exhibitions, and commercial displays, capable of providing any desired atmosphere.

[0003] With technological advancements, people's functional demands for billiard tables are increasing. Specifically, to enhance the user experience, components such as speakers and ambient lighting are often installed. Currently, ambient lighting is typically secured using a threaded fastening structure. Specifically, existing technologies often utilize pre-drilled holes on the back of the light fixture, along with metal screws, to directly attach the light body to the side panel of the billiard table.

[0004] While the existing mechanical fixing method can ensure the strength of the foundation connection, it has the following shortcomings in practical applications:

[0005] 1. Inefficient replacement of ambient lights

[0006] When users need to replace the ambient light with a different color, they must completely disassemble it using specialized tools such as screwdrivers. This process involves a series of operations, including loosening screws, separating the light body, aligning and calibrating the new module, and re-tightening, resulting in a time-consuming and cumbersome replacement process.

[0007] 2. Increased risk of structural damage

[0008] Frequent disassembly and assembly can lead to two types of deterioration: First, repeated tightening can cause wear or even stripping of the screw threads, resulting in a decrease in tightening torque; second, the pre-drilled screw holes on the side panel of the billiard table may enlarge or crack due to stress concentration, ultimately affecting the overall structural reliability.

[0009] Therefore, developing a fixing structure that supports quick installation and removal of ambient lights is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0010] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an ambient light strip installation structure that supports quick installation and removal of ambient lights.

A second retaining block is provided at the end of the retaining block away from the middle connecting block, and the extension direction of the second retaining block is consistent with the extension direction of the middle connecting block. When the ambient light strip abuts against the middle connecting block and the retaining block, the first retaining block and the second retaining block together secure the ambient light strip.

[0014] Optionally, there are two first card blocks, with a gap between them.

[0015] Optionally, the base block, the intermediate block, the fastening block, the first locking block, and the second locking block are integrally formed structures.

[0016] Optionally, the base block has perforations.

[0017] Optionally, the card holder is a metal structure.

[0018] Optionally, the ambient light strip includes a light housing, a light bead, and a lampshade. When the light housing abuts against the central connecting block and the fastening block, the first locking block and the second locking block together clamp the light housing. The light bead is disposed on the light housing, and the lampshade is fastened to the light housing.

[0019] Optionally, the lamp housing includes two frame plates connected at right angles, and the lampshade is connected to each of the two frame plates respectively.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more comprehensive description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of this utility model.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an ambient light strip mounting structure for fixing an ambient light strip 200 includes a holder 100. The holder 100 includes a base block 110, a connecting block 120, and a retaining block 130. The two ends of the connecting block 120 are respectively connected to the base block 110 and the retaining block 130, and the angles between the connecting block 120 and the base block 110 and the retaining block 130 are right angles. A first retaining block 1 is provided at the connection position between the connecting block 120 and the base block 110. 40, and the extension direction of the first locking block 140 is consistent with the extension direction of the retaining block 130. A second locking block 150 is provided on the end of the retaining block 130 away from the middle connecting block 120. The extension direction of the second locking block 150 is consistent with the extension direction of the middle connecting block 120. When the ambient light strip 200 abuts against the middle connecting block 120 and the retaining block 130 respectively, the first locking block 140 and the second locking block 150 together lock the ambient light strip 200.

[0033] It should be noted that this technical solution, through its innovative clip holder 100 structure, achieves rapid installation and stable fixation of the ambient light strip, bringing the following significant advantages: First, installation convenience is significantly improved, enabling tool-free operation. Through the synergistic action of the first clip 140 and the second clip 150, the ambient light strip 200 can be directly embedded into the clip holder 100 without the need for screwdrivers or other tools, simplifying the installation process. Furthermore, it allows for quick disassembly and assembly. The ambient light strip 200 and the clip holder 100 are connected by a snap-fit ​​mechanism, allowing users to easily replace or maintain the ambient light strip, significantly improving operational efficiency. Second, structural stability is enhanced. The installation structure of this application provides multi-point fixation for the ambient light strip 200. Specifically, the first clip 140 and the second clip 150 apply clamping forces to the ambient light strip from different directions, forming a multi-point fixation effect, effectively preventing the light strip from shifting under vibration or impact. The ambient light strip 200 is rigidly supported. Specifically, the right-angle connection structure of the base block 110, the middle connecting block 120, and the fastening block 130 provides stable rigid support, ensuring the light strip remains stable during long-term use. Secondly, the vibration resistance of the ambient light strip 200 is optimized. Specifically, the overall structure of the holder 100 has a certain elastic deformation capacity, which can absorb the vibration energy generated during the use of the billiard table, reducing the risk of the ambient light strip 200 loosening. Thirdly, the installation structure of this application has high adaptability and versatility. Specifically, the structure of the holder 100 can be adapted to various specifications of ambient light strips to meet the needs of different scenarios. Moreover, the right-angle connection design between the base block 110, the middle connecting block 120, and the fastening block 130 makes the overall structure compact, suitable for installation in narrow spaces such as the side panel of the billiard table, thus making the installation of the ambient light strip 200 more concealed and improving the lighting effect of the billiard table. Finally, the installation structure of this application has low maintenance costs. Compared with traditional threaded fixing, the snap-fit ​​connection avoids the problem of screw thread wear and extends service life. Once the ambient light strip is damaged, only the ambient light strip itself needs to be replaced, without replacing the fixing structure, thus reducing maintenance costs. In summary, this technical solution, through the innovative snap-fit ​​bracket 100 design, solves the problems of cumbersome installation, easy loosening, and high maintenance costs of traditional threaded fixing methods, providing an efficient, stable, and economical solution for the installation of pool table ambient lights.

[0034] In one embodiment, two first card blocks 140 are provided, and a gap is provided between the two first card blocks 140.

[0035] It should be noted that by setting two spaced-apart first locking blocks 140 at the connection point between the base block 110 and the intermediate connecting block 120, the fixing effect of the ambient light strip 200 is further optimized. Specifically, it enhances clamping stability. The spaced-apart first locking blocks 140 can apply a more uniform clamping force to the ambient light strip 200, avoiding local stress concentration caused by single-point force. Moreover, the two first locking blocks 140 can effectively prevent the ambient light strip 200 from twisting or shifting during installation or use, ensuring that the ambient light strip 200 always remains stable. Secondly, the two first locking blocks 140 form redundant fixing points. Even if one first locking block 140 fails due to an accident, the other first locking block 140 can still provide sufficient clamping force to ensure that the ambient light strip 200 does not fall off. Furthermore, the spaced-apart distribution of the two first locking blocks 140 can better absorb the vibration energy generated during the use of the billiard table, reducing the risk of the ambient light strip 200 loosening.

[0036] In one embodiment, the base block 110, the intermediate connecting block 120, the fastening block 130, the first locking block 140, and the second locking block 150 are integrally formed structures.

[0037] It should be noted that, for example, by using punching and bending processes to form an integral structure, the clamping frame 100 can ensure sufficient rigidity among the base block 110, the middle connecting block 120, the fastening block 130, the first clamping block 140, and the second clamping block 150, thereby reliably and stably clamping and fixing the ambient light strip 200.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the base block 110 has a through hole 111. Thus, by passing a screw through the through hole 111 and then screwing it onto the billiard table, the holder 100 can be reliably fixed on the billiard table.

[0039] In one embodiment, the retaining frame 100 is a metal structure. For example, the retaining frame 100 is an iron structure, formed by punching and bending processes, having a base block 110, a middle connecting block 120, a fastening block 130, a first retaining block 140, and a second retaining block 150.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the ambient light strip 200 includes a lamp housing 210, an LED bead, and a lamp shade 220. When the lamp housing 210 abuts against the central connecting block 120 and the fastening block 130 respectively, the first locking block 140 and the second locking block 150 together clamp the lamp housing 210. The LED bead is disposed on the lamp housing 210, and the lamp shade 220 is fastened to the lamp housing 210.

[0041] It should be noted that the LED beads are fixedly installed inside the lamp housing 210, and the lamp shade 220 is connected to the lamp housing 210 to form the ambient light strip 200. When the lamp housing 210 is snapped into the holder 100, so that the lamp housing 210 abuts against the center block 120 and the fastening block 130 respectively, and when the first locking block 140 and the second locking block 150 respectively engage the lamp housing 210, the ambient light strip 200 is reliably fixed inside the holder 100.

[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the lamp housing 210 includes two frame plates 211 connected at right angles, and the lamp shade 220 is connected to the two frame plates 211 respectively.

[0043] It should be noted that the two brackets 211 are at right angles, and correspondingly, the middle connecting block 120 and the fastening block 130 are also at right angles. In this way, when the ambient light strip 200 is inserted into the fastening bracket 100, it is ensured that the two brackets 211 are in close contact with the middle connecting block 120 and the fastening block 130 respectively, so that the ambient light strip 200 is reliably and stably fastened and fixed by the fastening bracket 100.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a reinforcing block 212 is provided between the two support plates 211.

[0045] It should be noted that the reinforcing block 212 is connected to the two frame plates 211 respectively, thus ensuring that the right-angle structure between the two frame plates 211 remains stable.

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a slot 2111 is provided on the frame plate 211, and the edge of the lampshade 220 is slidably disposed in the slot 2111.

[0047] It should be noted that the slot 2111 extends from one end of the bracket 211 to the other end. In one embodiment, the lampshade 220 is made of acrylic sheet material, so that the lampshade 220 is inserted into the slot 2111 for installation and fixation.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the ambient light strip 200 further includes two end plates 230, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the lamp housing 210 and are respectively connected to both ends of the lamp shade 220.

[0049] It should be noted that sealing both ends of the lamp housing 210 with two end plates 230 can prevent flying insects and other debris from entering the interior of the ambient light strip 200. Simultaneously, it can isolate moisture inside the ambient light strip 200, thus providing safety protection for the ambient light strip 200. In one embodiment, the end plates 230 are made of plastic and are fastened to the lamp housing 210 using a snap-fit ​​method, or they can be fixed to the lamp housing 210 using adhesive.

[0050] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. Unless otherwise specifically defined, the installation / fixing / setting mentioned in this utility model can be understood to include, but is not limited to, locking and fixing with screws / bolts, and welding. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
