[0039] Example 1:

[0040] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a detachable and foldable modular metal lampshade offers both protective performance and ease of production and transportation, effectively reducing production and transportation costs. It also allows for quick assembly and convenient operation. This embodiment of the metal lampshade includes a cover body 1, end caps 2, and handles 3. The end caps 2 cover the ends of the cover body 1, while the handles 3 connect to both sides of the cover body 1, thus assembling the lampshade. In this embodiment, the cover body 1 is a tubular structure enclosed by a flexible metal plate 11, allowing the interior of the cover body 1 to form a space for accommodating the lamp assembly. Furthermore, the flexible metal plate 11 can be directly stamped during production, facilitating manufacturing and effectively reducing the space occupied during transportation, thereby lowering transportation costs. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the flexible metal plate 11 has a first side 111 and a second side 112 vertically arranged on both sides. When assembling the cover 1, the flexible metal plate 11 can be bent around the vertical axis to bring the first side 111 and the second side 112 closer together and connect them, thereby assembling a cover 1 with a tubular structure open at both ends, which is convenient for installation. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the edges of the first side 111 and the edges of the second side 112 are provided with detachable fastening components, so that after the flexible metal plate 11 is bent, the first side 111 and the second side 112 can be connected by the fastening components to keep the flexible metal plate 11 in a closed state to form the cover 1; at the same time, the first side 111 and the second side 112 can also be disassembled by the fastening components to disassemble the cover 1 into the flexible metal plate 11 state, which is convenient for users to carry and transport.

[0041] Furthermore, in other embodiments, the flexible metal plate 11 may also be provided in multiple pieces, such as... Figures 4 to 6 As shown, when the flexible metal plate 11 is configured as two pieces, the first side 111 and the second side 112 of the two flexible metal plates 11 are folded towards both sides of the flexible metal plate 11 to form folded edges. This allows the two flexible metal plates 11 to be connected and enclosed by interlocking the folded edges, forming a cover 1 with openings at both ends. This not only achieves the same technical effect as a cover 1 formed by enclosing a single flexible metal plate 11, but also simplifies the assembly structure and process, facilitates installation, and allows users to select an appropriate number of flexible metal plates 11 for personalized design. For example... Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in order to improve the stability of the cover 1 after the flexible metal plate 11 is enclosed to form the cover 1, the buckle assembly of this embodiment includes a connection port 116 located at the edge of the first side 111 and a connecting piece 117 located at the edge of the second side 112. The connecting piece 117 corresponds to the position of the connection port 116. After the flexible metal plate 11 is bent to drive the first side 111 and the second side 112 to move closer to each other, the connecting piece 117 on the second side 112 can be inserted into the connection port 116 on the first side 111, thereby realizing the connection between the first side 111 and the second side 112, and fixing the bending of the flexible metal plate 11 to maintain the shape of the cover 1.

[0042] In addition, the connecting piece 117 of this embodiment is also provided with a fastening part 118 that is bent in reverse and connected to the edge of the connecting port 116. After the first side 111 and the second side 112 are connected to the connecting port 116 through the connecting piece 117, the fastening part 118 on the connecting piece 117 can be bent in reverse and connected to the edge of the connecting port 116. This restricts the separation of the first side 111 and the second side 112, and can prevent the flexible metal plate 11 from rebounding under the action of elastic potential energy, causing the cover 1 to decompose, thereby improving the stability of the cover 1 after assembly.

[0043] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, after the flexible metal plate 11 of this embodiment is closed, a cover 1 with a tubular structure with openings at both ends can be formed. In order to improve the splicing stability of the cover 1 and improve the overall protective performance of the lamp cover, this embodiment provides end caps 2 to cover the openings at both ends of the cover 1. After the end caps 2 are closed, they can be locked at the ends of the cover 1 to limit the rebound of the flexible metal plate 11, thereby improving the stability of the cover 1 after splicing. At the same time, it can prevent external debris from falling into the cover 1 from the openings of the cover 1 and affecting the operation of the lamp assembly installed in the cover 1.

[0044] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the end cap 2 in this embodiment includes a cover plate 21 and a side wall 22 surrounding the outer periphery of the cover plate 21. The side wall 22 and the cover plate 21 can be combined to form a fixing groove 23. The fixing groove 23 in this embodiment is adapted to the cross-sectional structure of the cover 1, so that when the end cap 2 is installed, the end of the cover 1 can be stably fitted into the fixing groove 23. This not only achieves the stable installation of the end cap 2, but also locks the cover 1, thereby improving the stability of the cover 1 after assembly.

[0045] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the end cap 2 is divided into a top cap 24 and a bottom cap 25 depending on the installation position. The top cap 24 is fitted onto the top opening of the cover 1, and the bottom cap 25 is fitted onto the bottom opening of the cover 1. The top cap 24 of this embodiment has a mounting opening 241 on its cover plate 21 surface, so that when the lamp cover is used as a projection lamp, the lamp assembly can be installed through the mounting opening 241 and extended into the cover 1, making installation convenient. In addition, the mounting opening 241 of this embodiment also has a positioning notch 242 at its edge, so that the lamp assembly can be correctly and stably installed through the positioning notch 242. Furthermore, in other embodiments, the lampshade can also be used as a candlestick. The candle can be installed in the fixing groove 23 of the bottom cover 25 and thus located inside the cover 1, so that the lampshade as a whole serves as a candlestick for supporting the candle. This not only has a good visual effect, but the cover 1 formed by the enclosure of the flexible metal plate 11 structure can prevent the candle from being lit, thus ensuring high safety. In addition, when the lampshade supports the candle, a cover can be installed at the mounting opening 241 of the top cover 24 to seal it, thereby preventing the candle from going out.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, in order to facilitate users to hang the lampshade in a suitable position and to carry or transfer the lampshade, the lampshade in this embodiment is also provided with a handle 3 of rigid or flexible structure. The handle 3 of flexible structure is a rope that can be connected to both ends of the top cover 24, so as to facilitate users to lift and use it. The handle 3 of rigid structure is a metal strip with a semi-elliptical projection surface. It can not only be installed on the top cover 24 for users to carry by hand, but also fix the top cover 24 and the enclosure 1 formed by the enclosure, thereby improving the stability of the lampshade in this embodiment.

[0047] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the handle 3 has two ends with plugs 31 arranged horizontally towards the inside of the handle 3. The side wall 22 of the top cover 24 has a first connecting hole 221 at the opposite position. At the same time, the cover 1 has a second connecting hole 113 at the position corresponding to the first connecting hole 221. When the handle 3 is installed, the two plugs 31 can be inserted into the two opposite first connecting holes 221 respectively, and pass through the corresponding second connecting hole 113 at the same time. This not only achieves the stable installation of the handle 3, but also fixes the connection between the top cover 24 and the cover 1 through the handle 3, realizing the stable connection between the top cover 24 and the cover 1, and preventing the top cover 24 from falling off.

[0048] In addition, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to achieve stable installation of the bottom cover 25, a first connecting hole 221 is also provided on the side wall 22 of the bottom cover 25 in this embodiment, and a second connecting hole 113 is provided at the bottom of the cover 1 corresponding to the position of the first connecting hole 221 of the bottom cover 25. In this embodiment, by providing a connector 4 at the side wall 22 of the bottom cover 25 that is inserted into the first connecting hole 221 and connected to the second connecting hole 113, the bottom cover 25 can be stably installed to the bottom of the cover 1 under the action of the connector 4.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the flexible metal plate 11 of this embodiment has a through-hole portion 14 for projection, so that after the flexible metal plate 11 is assembled to form the cover 1, a decorative hollow pattern can be formed on the surface of the cover 1, which can improve the aesthetics of the lampshade; and it can also project light, improving the overall practicality of the lampshade.

[0050] Example 2:

[0051] like Figures 8 to 10As shown, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that the flexible metal plate 11 in Embodiment 2 includes at least three metal side plates 114 connected in sequence, wherein a flexible connecting rib 115 is provided between two adjacent metal side plates 114 for connection. Each metal side plate 114 can be bent by the flexible connecting rib 115 to form a polygonal column structure cover 1. Compared with the method of directly bending a single flexible metal plate 11 in Embodiment 1, the method of bending multiple metal side plates 114 and flexible connecting rib 115 in Embodiment 2 can improve the stability of the cover 1 after enclosure and also facilitate the realization of diversified designs of the cover 1.

[0052] In this embodiment, the flexible metal plate 11 has five metal side plates 114, allowing the enclosed enclosure 1 to have a pentagonal prism structure. In other embodiments, the flexible metal plate 11 can also be configured with three, four, six, or eight plates, allowing the enclosure 1 after bending and assembling the flexible metal plate 11 to have triangular, quadrangular, hexagonal, or octagonal prism structures, thus enriching the design of the enclosure 1. Furthermore, as... Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, each metal side plate 14 in this embodiment is provided with a second connecting hole 113 at its bottom, so that the bottom cover 25 can be closed at any angle to the bottom of the cover 1 to fix the cover 1, which facilitates the assembly of the bottom cover 25 and simplifies the assembly process of the lampshade.

[0053] Example 3:

[0054] like Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the difference from Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 is that the cover 1 of Embodiment 3 also includes a bottom support plate 12, and two flexible metal plates 11 are provided. The two flexible metal plates 11 are arranged opposite each other on the upper and lower sides or the left and right sides of the bottom support plate 12, and a connecting part 13 for folding is connected between the flexible metal plates 11 and the bottom support plate 12. When the cover 1 is assembled, the two flexible metal plates 11 can be bent to the same side surface of the bottom support plate 12 through the connecting part 13. The first side 111 and the second side 112 on both sides of the two flexible metal plates 11 are connected to each other, thereby assembling to form a cover 1 with a top opening. This not only achieves the same effect as Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, but also eliminates the need to install the bottom cover 25, thereby reducing the overall production and transportation costs of the lamp cover.

[0055] In addition, such as Figure 13As shown, the flexible metal plate 11 in this embodiment also includes three metal side plates 114 connected in sequence, and the projection surface of the bottom support plate 12 is a hexagonal structure. This allows the metal side plates 114 of the two flexible metal plates 11 to be bent to the respective side positions of the bottom support plate 12 during assembly, thereby forming a hexagonal prism structure of the cover 1. This achieves the diversified design of the cover 1 in Embodiment 2. In other embodiments, the flexible metal plate 11 can also be configured with four, five, or six metal side plates 114 connected in sequence, and the projection surface of the bottom support plate 12 can be configured as a polygonal structure with the same number of sides as the metal side plates 114 of the two metal plates, thereby forming an octagonal prism, decaponic prism, or dodecagonal prism structure of the cover 1.

[0056] In summary, this embodiment, by setting up a cover 1 formed by splicing flexible metal plates 11, enables the assembled lampshade to have good protective effect, and the flexible metal plates 11 can be directly punched during production, making the production method convenient. Simultaneously, the plate-like structure of the flexible metal plates 11 effectively reduces the space occupied during transportation, facilitating transport. Furthermore, by providing detachable first side 111 and second side 112 on both sides of the flexible metal plates 11, the flexible metal plates 11 can be connected and assembled to form the cover 1, making assembly convenient and allowing the cover 1 to be easily disassembled into flexible metal plates 11 for easy carrying. In addition, this embodiment, by providing end caps 2 to cover the ends of the cover 1, can fix the cover 1, improving the stability of the assembled cover 1 from the flexible metal plates 11, and the end caps 2 can protect the interior of the cover 1, thereby improving the overall protective performance of the lampshade.

[0057] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
