Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of light string technology, specifically a split-type intelligent light string. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the string lights sold on the market consist of a controller and a string of lights that cannot be disassembled. Typically, a single controller can power up to 48 bulbs, while a typical string of lights usually has 24 bulbs. It is difficult to adjust the number of bulbs according to the number of bulbs used, resulting in the controller's power being unused on each string. When using multiple strings of lights, each string needs to be connected to a power source separately, which leads to the waste of multiple controllers. To address these issues, a split-type intelligent string light is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a split-type intelligent light string to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a split-type intelligent light string, including an input power cord, a controller, and multiple five-hole PIN male and female connectors. The input power cord is electrically connected to the controller via the five-hole PIN male and female connectors. The external connection end of the controller is electrically connected to the light string via the five-hole PIN male and female connectors. Adjacent light strings are electrically connected together via the five-hole PIN male and female connectors. The tail end of the light string at the end is electrically connected to the controller via the five-hole PIN male and female connectors or connected to a protective cover via a plug on the five-hole PIN male and female connectors.
[0005] Preferably, the five-hole PIN male and female plug includes a five-hole socket, a plug is inserted into the five-hole plug socket, the plug is provided with a waterproof silicone ring, two holes of the five-hole socket are high-voltage holes, two holes are low-voltage holes, and the remaining hole is a signal line hole. The high-voltage hole is not electrically connected to the bulbs on the light string, but is directly electrically connected to the controller connected to the tail end of the light string through the internal wires of the light string. The low-voltage hole and the signal line hole are electrically connected to the bulbs on the light string, and are electrically connected to the controller on one side of the head end of the light string.
[0006] Preferably, the five-hole socket has a thread on its outer side, and a connecting threaded sleeve or protective cover is screwed onto the outer wall of the thread, and the connecting threaded sleeve is rotatably connected to the plug.
[0007] Preferably, a suspension plate is rotatably mounted in the middle of the protective cover.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0009] For example, if a string of lights in this invention contains a certain number of bulbs, the input power cord can be connected to an external power source during use. The input power cord, through its connection to the controller, allows the controller to power all the bulbs on the string. If more bulbs need to be added during use, the string can be reconnected to the end of the existing string using a five-hole PIN connector. If the number of strings exceeds two, the controller can be reconnected to the ends of both strings using a five-hole PIN connector. A string of lights can then be reconnected to the end of the controller. The two controllers are directly connected via wires and a high-voltage socket within the string, allowing the reconnected controller to power its connected string. This allows for the addition of more light strings as needed, and enables the controller to operate at full capacity, avoiding waste of controller resources. Attached Figure Description

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0014] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a split-type intelligent light string, including an input power cord 1, a controller 2 and multiple five-hole PIN male and female plugs 3. The input power cord 1 is electrically connected to the controller 2 through the five-hole PIN male and female plugs 3. The external connection end of the controller 2 is electrically connected to the light string 4 through the five-hole PIN male and female plugs 3. Adjacent light strings 4 are electrically connected together through the five-hole PIN male and female plugs 3. The tail end of the light string 4 at the end is electrically connected to the controller 2 through the five-hole PIN male and female plugs 3 or connected to a protective cover 5 through the five-hole PIN male and female plugs 3.
[0015] Specifically, the five-hole PIN male and female plug 3 includes a five-hole socket 31, on which a plug 32 is inserted. The plug 32 is equipped with a waterproof silicone ring. Two holes in the five-hole socket 31 are high-voltage sockets 33, two holes are low-voltage sockets 34, and the remaining hole is a signal line socket 35. The high-voltage socket 33 is not electrically connected to the bulbs on the light string 4. The high-voltage socket 33 is directly electrically connected to the controller 2 connected to the tail end of the light string 4 through the internal wires of the light string 4. The low-voltage socket 34 and the signal line socket 35 are electrically connected to the bulbs on the light string 4. The low-voltage socket 34 and the signal line socket 35 are electrically connected to the controller 2 on one side of the head end of the light string 4.
[0016] Specifically, the five-hole socket 31 has a thread 6 on its outer side, and a connecting threaded sleeve 7 or a protective cover 5 is screwed onto the outer wall of the thread 6. The connecting threaded sleeve 7 is rotatably connected to the plug 32.
[0017] The outer sides of the five-hole socket 31 and the plug 32 are protected by the connection between the thread 6 and the connecting threaded sleeve 7, which serves to seal and prevent moisture.
[0018] Specifically, a suspension plate 8 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the protective cover 5.
[0019] The protective cover 5 is used to provide waterproof protection for the five-hole socket 31 at the end of the last light string.
[0020] The suspension piece 8 is used to facilitate the suspension of the last light string at the end.
[0021] Working principle: For example, in this utility model, a string of lights 4 has 24 bulbs. During use, the input power line 1 can be connected to an external power source. The input power line 1 is electrically connected to the controller 2, which allows the controller 2 to power all 24 bulbs on the string of lights 4. If it is necessary to increase the number of bulbs, the string of lights 4 can be reconnected to the end of the existing string of lights through a five-hole PIN male and female connector 3. When the number of strings of lights 4 exceeds two (when the number of bulbs exceeds 48), the controller 2 can be reconnected to the end of the two strings of lights 4 through a five-hole PIN male and female connector 3. The string of lights 4 can then be reconnected to the end of the controller 2. The two controllers 2 are directly electrically connected through the wires inside the strings of lights and the high-voltage socket 33, allowing the reconnected controller 2 to power the connected string of lights 4. This realizes the function of increasing the number of light strings according to the usage, and allows the controller 2 to work at full load, avoiding waste of the controller 2.
[0022] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
