[0002] Underwater landscape lighting equipment plays a vital role in underwater photography and aquarium settings. These devices need to operate stably in complex underwater environments; therefore, their structural design must be able to withstand the unique conditions of the underwater world.
[0003] Traditional underwater lighting equipment typically uses bolts to connect and seal components, ensuring watertightness and structural integrity. However, the unique properties of the underwater environment, such as salinity, humidity, and microbial activity, accelerate the corrosion of metal bolts. Once bolts begin to corrode, disassembly and maintenance become extremely difficult. Therefore, we propose an integrated watertight protective structure for underwater lighting equipment to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0012] Furthermore, positioning plates are fixed on both sides of the movable column, and the positioning plates are adapted to the first rectangular notch.
[0013] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes tension springs connected to the two inner top walls of the fixed tube, with a first sliding plug connected to the other end of the tension spring. The first sliding plug is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting tube. A second sliding plug is slidably connected inside the fixed tube. A pull rope is connected between the second sliding plug and the first sliding plug. A connecting rod is fixedly provided on the top of the second sliding plug.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] This application provides an integrated watertight protective structure for underwater lighting equipment, primarily addressing the problem that the unique properties of the underwater environment, such as salinity, humidity, and microbial activity, accelerate the corrosion process of metal bolts. Once corrosion begins, disassembly and maintenance become extremely difficult. The application provides the following technical solution, which will be discussed in conjunction with... Figures 1-5 Please provide a detailed explanation:
[0026] An integrated watertight protective structure for an underwater lighting device includes:
[0027] The fixed tube 1 has an installation tube 2 connected to the top middle of the fixed tube 1. The tube opening of the fixed tube 1 has a first rectangular notch 201 on both sides and a second rectangular notch 202 on the other two sides. The depth of the second rectangular notch 202 is greater than the depth of the first rectangular notch 201.
[0028] The movable column 3 and the light bulb 4 are slidably embedded inside the fixed tube 1. The top of the movable column 3 is provided with a mounting groove 5, and the light bulb 4 is located in the middle of the mounting groove 5.
[0029] Mounting ring 6 is set above mounting groove 5, and lamp cover 7 is fixed in the middle of the top of mounting ring 6;
[0030] A locking mechanism 8 is installed inside the fixing tube 1. The locking mechanism 8 is used to fix the mounting ring 6. The locking mechanism 8 includes a tension spring 801 connected to the two inner top walls of the fixing tube 1. The other end of the tension spring 801 is connected to a first sliding plug 802. The first sliding plug 802 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting tube 2. A second sliding plug 803 is slidably connected inside the fixing tube 1. A pull rope 804 is connected between the second sliding plug 803 and the first sliding plug 802. A connecting rod 805 is fixedly provided on the top of the second sliding plug 803. A connecting plate 806 is fixedly provided on the top of the connecting rod 805. The connecting plate 806 is slidably embedded inside the second rectangular notch 202. Arc-shaped notches 8061 are constructed on both sides of the bottom of the connecting plate 806. U-shaped rods 602 are hinged to both sides of the mounting ring 6. The U-shaped rods 602 can be embedded in the arc-shaped notches 8061.
[0031] Workflow Description:
[0032] Step 1, Installation Preparation: Install the fixing pipe 1 in the underwater environment, ensuring that it is securely connected to the predetermined position;
[0033] The second step is the initial positioning of the bulb 4: align the mounting ring 6 with the top of the mounting groove 5, and then insert the movable post 3 into the upper port of the mounting tube 2.
[0034] The third step is to operate the locking mechanism 8: pull the connecting plate 806 upward, and then rotate the U-shaped rod 602 to fit the U-shaped rod 602 into the arc-shaped notch 8061 of the connecting plate 806. Under the tension of the tension spring 801, the connecting plate 806 moves downward in the second rectangular notch 202. In this way, the mounting ring 6 fits tightly against the top of the mounting groove 5, fixing the movable column 3 at the upper end of the mounting tube 2, thereby locking the bulb 4.
[0035] The integrated watertight protection structure of this underwater lighting equipment simplifies the complexity of traditional bolt fixing, improves the corrosion resistance and long-term stability of the equipment, and the design of the locking mechanism 8 makes subsequent disassembly and maintenance more convenient and faster, reducing labor costs.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, a rubber sealing ring 501 is provided inside the mounting groove 5 on the side of the bulb 4, and an annular gasket 601 is fixed at the bottom of the mounting ring 6 opposite to the position of the rubber sealing ring 501. More specifically, the combination of the rubber sealing ring 501 and the annular gasket 601 provides a double seal, effectively preventing moisture from penetrating into the bulb 4 and other sensitive components. By isolating moisture, the risk of corrosion of metal components is reduced, thereby extending the life of the bulb 4 and the entire device. The sealing ring and gasket can also absorb external impacts to a certain extent, reducing the risk of damage to the bulb 4 caused by accidental collisions.
[0037] like Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, positioning plates 301 are fixed on both sides of the movable column 3. The positioning plates 301 are adapted to the first rectangular notch 201. More specifically, the positioning plates 301 on both sides of the movable column 3 are adapted to the first rectangular notch 201 to limit the bulb 4 and prevent it from rotating in the mounting tube 2. This design ensures the stability of the bulb 4, reduces the risk of damage to the bulb 4 due to accidental collision, and thus improves the safety of the equipment.
[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the second slide plug 803 is a butyl rubber plug. More specifically, the molecular structure of butyl rubber is compact, which gives it an extremely low gas permeability. This is crucial for preventing the penetration of moisture and other corrosive gases. As the second slide plug 803, the butyl rubber plug fits tightly against the inner wall of the fixed tube 1 to form an effective sealing layer, preventing moisture from entering the interior of the fixed tube 1.
[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the two ends of the fixing tube 1 are connected to fixing seats 9, and the surface of the fixing seats 9 is provided with mounting holes. More specifically, the two ends of the fixing tube 1 are connected to fixing seats 9, and the surface of the fixing seats 9 is provided with mounting holes. Through the mounting holes, bolts or other fasteners can be used to firmly fix the equipment in a predetermined position to prevent loosening or displacement.
