Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of lighting fixtures, and in particular to a downlight with a double-ring structure. Background Technology

[0002] Downlights are widely used in home and commercial lighting. However, existing downlight designs are relatively traditional and outdated, mostly featuring fixed structures. Once installed in mounting holes on ceilings or other surfaces, they are difficult to remove, making installation and disassembly cumbersome and complex. Maintenance and repair are also inconvenient, and the light source or lamp body cannot be flexibly replaced. This makes it difficult to meet the diverse lighting requirements of different locations, users, and times of day, resulting in a narrow application range, low flexibility, and low versatility. Furthermore, the fixed structure has other disadvantages: if any component is damaged, repair and maintenance are difficult, requiring the entire lamp to be scrapped; it is not energy-efficient or environmentally friendly, and the overall lifespan of the lamp is relatively short. Moreover, the structures of existing downlights vary widely, lacking industry standards for structural design. Improvements are generally made to small components, such as heat sinks and spring clips, without any revolutionary or innovative structural changes, thus limiting the development of structural design in the industry. Additionally, the current structural designs of downlights are cumbersome and complex, with many parts, high production costs, low assembly and installation efficiency, and inconvenient installation and disassembly. Finally, existing downlights lack safety structures, resulting in generally poor safety performance.

[0003] Therefore, how to achieve a downlight with a scientifically sound and reasonable structural design, featuring a double-ring structure that allows for flexible transformation of various lamp body structures, high flexibility, strong versatility, wide applicability, easy and convenient installation and disassembly, and convenient and quick subsequent inspection, maintenance, and replacement of lamp body structures, is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the industry.

[0020] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0021] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] Reference Figures 1 to 7 This invention proposes an embodiment of a downlight with a double-ring structure, comprising a mounting ring 101 that can be installed and fixed on a mounting port, and a lamp body structure 102 that is engaged and fixed within the mounting ring 101. The front end of the lamp body structure 102 is provided with a face ring cover 103. The mounting ring 101 and the face ring cover 103 form a double-ring structure.

[0023] The inner wall of the mounting ring 101 is provided with several elastic locking pieces 104 made of elastic metal. Each elastic locking piece has an inwardly protruding locking block 105. The outer wall of the lamp body structure 102 is provided with an annular locking groove 106 that corresponds to and matches the locking block 105. During the process of pushing the lamp body structure 102 into the mounting ring 101, the locking block 105 is locked into the annular locking groove 106 to form a locking structure.

[0024] The outer wall of the mounting ring 101 is provided with several elastic clips 107 that engage and fix with the mounting opening. Each elastic clip 107 has several layers of barbs 108 that engage with the upper surface of the mounting opening. After the mounting ring 101 is snapped into the mounting opening, if the mounting ring 101 is pulled outwards, the layers of barbs 108 on the elastic clips 107 will engage and resist the upper surface of the mounting opening. The more the ring is pulled out, the tighter the barbs 108 engage, effectively preventing the mounting ring 101 from detaching from the mounting opening and ensuring that the safety ring will not fall off, thus providing high safety performance.

[0025] The barb 108 is set in an inverted triangle shape or an inverted U shape. The number of layers of barbs 108 is not limited and can be set to one or more layers. In this embodiment, there are two layers of barbs 108. Even if the mounting ring 101 is pulled outward by force, even if the first layer of barbs 108 is deformed by force, the second layer of barbs 108 will engage and abut against the upper end face of the mounting opening to ensure that the mounting ring 101 will not fall off.

[0026] The lower end of the inner wall of the mounting ring 101 is provided with an annular limiting groove 109, and the lower end of the outer wall of the face ring cover 103 is provided with an annular limiting protrusion 110 that corresponds to and matches the annular limiting groove 109. The elastic locking piece 104 is located above the annular limiting groove 109. During the process of pushing the lamp body structure 102 into the mounting ring 101, the locking block 105 is locked into the annular locking groove 106 to form a locking structure. At the same time, the annular limiting protrusion 110 of the face ring cover 103 of the lamp body structure 102 also reaches the annular limiting groove 109 and abuts against the annular limiting groove 109. This plays a limiting role and can prevent the locking block 105 from dislodging from the annular locking groove 106 due to excessive force, ensuring that the installation operation is completed smoothly.

[0027] During installation, the mounting ring 101 is first snapped into the mounting opening. During the installation process, the elastic card 107 is compressed inward by the pressure of the mounting opening. After the elastic card 107 passes through the mounting opening, it returns to its original shape and snaps into the upper end face of the mounting opening. The first layer of barbs 108 on the elastic card 107 engages and abuts against the upper end face of the mounting opening, so that the mounting ring 101 cannot be pulled out after it is inserted. The more it is pulled out, the tighter the barbs 108 engage. Since there are no electronic components on the mounting ring 101, it does not require maintenance or will not be damaged. Therefore, it does not need to be removed after installation. This utility model achieves the ideal installation effect of the mounting ring 101 through ingenious and scientific structural design, ensuring a firm and non-detachable installation.

[0028] The installation of the mounting ring 101 is simple and convenient. Simply insert the clip into the mounting port, and then insert the lamp body structure 102 into the mounting ring 101. During the process of pushing the lamp body structure 102 into the mounting ring 101, the clip 105 engages with the annular groove 106, forming a locking structure. Simultaneously, the annular limiting protrusion 110 of the lamp body structure 102's face ring cover 103 reaches and abuts against the annular limiting groove 109, thus providing a limiting function. This prevents excessive force from causing the clip 105 to disengage from the annular groove 106, ensuring a smooth installation operation.

[0029] The downlight also includes a safety rope structure, which consists of a safety rope 111 fixed to the mounting ring 101 and a retaining ring 112 fixed to the lamp body structure 102. The end of the safety rope 111 has a hook 113 that can be engaged with the retaining ring 112. The hook 113 is a movable hook. The safety rope structure serves as a backup safety feature and can be optionally configured. If the safety rope structure is configured, after installing the mounting ring 101, the retaining ring 112 is engaged with the hook 113, connecting the mounting ring 101 and the lamp body structure 102 as a single unit. Finally, the lamp body structure 102 is pushed upwards into the mounting ring 101. Its function is to provide dual safety protection. In addition to the locking and fixing structure, there is also a safety rope structure. This meets the multi-measure safety standards of the United States and the European Union, effectively preventing safety accidents caused by parts falling off. Since downlights are generally installed at high places, even if the staff pulls out the lamp body structure 102 during later maintenance, the lamp body structure 102 will not fall and injure people due to accidental slips. The safety factor is very high in both the installation process and the later maintenance work.

[0030] The lower end of the mounting ring 101 has an outer edge 114 facing outwards. The outer edge 114 has several safety screw holes 115. Safety screws are screwed into the safety screw holes 115, and the mounting ring 101 is screwed onto the mounting surface by the safety screws. This achieves a triple assembly and fixation effect, further improving safety performance.

[0031] The shape of the outer edge 114 of the mounting ring 101 is not limited; the outer edge 114 of the mounting ring 101 can be designed as a circle, rectangle, or other shapes. Furthermore, a single lamp body luminaire can be formed by one mounting ring 101, or a multi-lamp body luminaire can be formed by multiple mounting rings 101.

[0032] The lamp body structure 102 is designed to be either surface-mounted or recessed, making it highly versatile.

[0033] In this embodiment, both the mounting ring 101 and the face ring cover 103 are made of metal. However, the materials of the mounting ring 101 and the lamp body structure 102 are not limited and can be set according to requirements.

[0034] The double-ring structure of this downlight greatly increases its structural flexibility. Various lamp body structures 102 can be replaced according to needs, such as different types of lamp body structures 102 with different light output effects. It is highly flexible, versatile, and widely applicable. Moreover, it is easy and convenient to install and disassemble. Later maintenance and replacement of lamp body structures 102 are also very convenient and quick, which is conducive to the formation of industry standardization trend in structural design.

[0035] The double-ring structure has led to a standardized design trend for downlights. As long as a standard mounting ring 101 is designed, it does not need to be replaced. The style of the lamp body structure 102 inside can be varied. This is similar to the industry standard for electrical sockets. Once the electrical socket box is installed in the wall, it does not need to be changed. The panel and button functions on the socket box can be changed arbitrarily according to needs, with flexible styles and functions.

[0036] The mounting ring 101 and the face ring cover 103 are assembled and fixed by a snap-fit ​​structure composed of elastic snap-fit ​​pieces 104 and annular snap-fit ​​grooves 106. The structure is reasonably and ingeniously designed, achieving the ideal assembly effect with a simple structure. With fewer parts, it effectively reduces production costs, improves assembly and installation efficiency, saves time and labor, and is conducive to achieving mass production.

[0037] In addition, this downlight has multiple safety structures and high safety performance: the elastic clip 107 of the mounting ring 101 and the barb 108 on the elastic clip 107, the locking structure formed by the elastic locking piece 104 and the annular locking groove 106 between the mounting ring 101 and the lamp body structure 102, the safety rope structure between the mounting ring 101 and the lamp body structure 102, and the safety screw hole 115 and safety screw on the outer edge 114 of the mounting ring 101. With multiple protections, the safety factor is very high.

[0038] This utility model achieves a scientifically and rationally designed structure with a double-ring structure. The mounting ring 101 and the face ring cover 103 are assembled and fixed by a snap-fit ​​structure composed of elastic snap-fit ​​pieces 104 and annular snap-fit ​​grooves 106. Various lamp body structures 102 can be flexibly changed, which is highly flexible, versatile, and applicable to a wide range of applications. Installation and disassembly are simple and convenient, and subsequent inspection, maintenance, and replacement of lamp body structures 102 are very convenient and quick. It is conducive to the formation of industry standardization trend in structural design. The structure is simple and ingenious with few parts, which effectively reduces production costs, improves assembly and installation efficiency, and has multiple safety structures, making it a high-safety downlight.
