Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of lighting equipment, and more specifically, relates to a sign that is easy to assemble. Background Technology

[0002] Signage typically involves enclosing a light guide plate inside the lighting fixture. The four sides of the light guide plate are blocked, leaving the central area exposed as the light-emitting surface. Signs with a fully enclosed light guide plate are relatively large, lack a clean appearance, and are relatively expensive to manufacture. To address this issue, the main development trend in the market is for suspended signs, where the top of the light guide plate is fixed inside the lighting fixture, while the rest is exposed.

[0003] However, existing suspended signage solutions have the following issues:

[0004] 1. Clip-on fixing: The lamp body is made of injection-molded plastic, and the size of the light guide plate is fixed to the size of the lamp body, making it difficult to generate signs of different sizes according to customer needs; the cost of injection molds is relatively high, and the size of structural components is relatively large; plastic clips are at risk of aging, failure and breakage.

[0005] 2. Light guide plate front perforation fixation: A through hole of at least φ3mm needs to be reserved, which increases the height of the lamp body; the screws below the lamp plate will block the light, resulting in shadows and dark areas after the light guide plate emits light; exposed screw heads have an unsightly appearance.

[0006] 3. Drilling and tapping the top of the light guide plate for fixing: The light guide plate itself is generally made of fragile PMMA material. The drilling and tapping process will increase the defect rate of the light guide plate during production, and there is a risk of breakage during screw installation. The load-bearing capacity of the threaded holes is also weak. The thickness of the light guide plate should be at least 8mm to support the M3 screw holes. Thicker light guide plates will cause a significant increase in cost and will not look slim enough. The lamp board needs to avoid the screws in the circuit, which can easily lead to the lamp board failing the pressure resistance test. Exposed screw heads have an unsightly appearance. Utility Model Content

[0007] In order to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this application is to provide a sign that is easy to assemble, has a simple and compact structure, an attractive appearance, is easy to assemble and disassemble, improves subsequent maintenance efficiency, and reduces costs.

[0008] The technical means adopted in this application to solve the above-mentioned technical problems are:
