Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of LED lighting technology, specifically to a protective cover for transparent components of LED lights. Background Technology

[0002] LED lights are widely used in various fields due to their sufficient brightness and energy-saving and environmentally friendly characteristics. In the mining industry, because flying rocks that can damage the lights are often generated in the mine, a certain protective structure is usually added to the LED lights.

[0003] Common protective structures include mesh covers and transparent covers. While these can block larger flying stones without obstructing lighting, smaller stones can penetrate them and strike the light fixture directly, offering insufficient protection for LED lights. Adding a transparent cover provides comprehensive protection, but its strength is insufficient, making it more susceptible to damage from larger flying stones. Its impact resistance is also inadequate, reducing overall protection. Furthermore, since the protective structure is typically integrated with the light fixture, it's difficult to replace only the damaged structure while preserving the fixture when it fails. Often, the entire fixture needs to be replaced, indirectly reducing its lifespan and causing unnecessary waste. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a protective cover for transparent components of LED lights, which has the advantages of good protection and convenient maintenance.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A transparent protective cover for an LED lamp includes a mounting plate, a lamp holder, and a lamp body. The mounting plate has a lamp holder, and the lamp body is mounted on the lamp holder. The mounting plate also has a transparent cover and a protective cover. The transparent cover covers the lamp body, and the protective cover covers the transparent cover. The protective cover is mesh-shaped and detachably connected to the mounting plate. The top of the transparent cover has a mounting opening, and a transparent plate of a similar shape is provided on the mounting opening. The inner end of the mounting opening has an extension frame extending into the transparent cover. The cross-sectional shape of the extension frame is similar to that of the mounting opening. The transparent plate can slide along the inner cavity of the extension frame. At this time, the outer edge of the transparent plate slides against the inner wall of the extension frame. The mounting plate has an elastic component inside the transparent cover. The direction of the elastic component is the same as the direction of the inner cavity of the extension frame. The upper end of the elastic component is detachably connected to the transparent plate. When the elastic component is in its initial state, the transparent plate is stopped at the mounting opening.

[0007] Preferably, the transparent panel is composed of several transparent panels of the same shape that abut against each other. Each transparent panel has an extension plate extending into the transparent cover on both its front and rear sides. The left and right ends of the extension plate slide against the inner wall of the extension frame. The transparent panel can slide along the channel enclosed by the extension plates and the extension frame that are adjacent to it. At this time, the outer edge of the transparent panel slides against the extension plate or the inner wall of the extension frame. Each transparent panel is connected to a corresponding elastic component. The upper end of the elastic component is detachably connected to the transparent panel. When the elastic component is in the initial state, the transparent panel stops at the installation port.

[0008] Preferably, the extension plate is located above the lamp body, and the bottom of the extension plate is provided with a groove corresponding to the shape of the lamp body below.

[0009] Preferably, the number of transparent panels is three.

[0010] Preferably, the elastic component includes a movable plate, a buckle, and a spring. The movable plate is provided inside the transparent cover, and a groove is provided on the inner wall of the transparent cover in the same direction as the inner cavity of the extension frame. A slider is provided on the edge of the movable plate, and the slider is slidably connected to the groove. A buckle is provided on the top of the movable plate, and a corresponding groove is provided on the bottom of the transparent plate. The buckle and the groove realize the detachable connection between the transparent plate and the elastic component. A spring is connected between the bottom of the movable plate and the top of the mounting plate, and the axis of the spring is in the same direction as the groove.

[0011] Preferably, the protective cover is connected to the fixing plate, and the fixing plate has a mating interface on the inner side of the protective cover. The transparent cover enters and exits the protective cover through the mating interface. The fixing plate has several threaded through holes on its edge, and the mounting plate has threaded holes corresponding to the threaded through holes. When the transparent cover is inserted into the protective cover, the bottom of the fixing plate abuts against the top of the mounting plate, and the threaded through holes and threaded holes overlap. The detachable connection between the protective cover and the mounting plate is achieved by screwing a fixing screw into the overlapping threaded through holes and threaded holes.

[0012] The beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The mesh-like protective cover blocks large flying stones with high kinetic energy, while the transparent cover and transparent plate block smaller flying stones with lower kinetic energy that pass through the protective cover. The protection is comprehensive and can prevent the transparent cover from being damaged by large flying stones, thus providing good protection for the lamp body.

[0014] 2. The transparent plate is given a certain elastic buffering capacity through the elastic component. When a small flying stone hits the transparent plate, the transparent plate slides into the transparent cover along the extension frame inside the mounting opening. During this process, some of the kinetic energy of the small flying stone is converted into the elastic potential energy of the elastic component connected to the transparent plate, thereby reducing the instantaneous impact force of the small flying stone on the transparent plate, thus improving the impact resistance of the transparent cover and enhancing its protective ability. After the small flying stone bounces away, the elastic component can safely release the elastic potential energy accumulated during the compression process in the process of returning to its original shape. The elastic sheet maintains the state of blocking the inner cavity of the extension frame when sliding, thereby preventing external impurities from mixing into the transparent cover and affecting the lamp body.

[0015] 3. The protective cover and the mounting plate, as well as the transparent plate and the elastic components, are detachable. When the protective cover and the transparent plate are severely damaged, they can be replaced, making maintenance convenient. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Example:

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this embodiment provides a transparent protective cover for an LED lamp, including a mounting plate 1, a lamp holder 2, and a lamp body 3. The mounting plate 1 is provided with a lamp holder 2, and the lamp body 3 is provided with a lamp holder 2. The mounting plate 1 is provided with a transparent cover 4 and a protective cover 5. The transparent cover 4 covers the lamp body 3, and the protective cover 5 covers the transparent cover 4. The protective cover 5 is mesh-shaped and is detachably connected to the mounting plate 1. The top of the transparent cover 4 is provided with a mounting opening 6, and a transparent plate 7 of a similar shape is provided on the mounting opening 6. The inner end of the mounting opening 6 is provided with an extension frame 8 extending into the transparent cover 4. The cross-sectional shape of the extension frame 8 is similar to the shape of the mounting opening 6. The transparent plate 7 can slide along the inner cavity of the extension frame 8. At this time, the outer edge of the transparent plate 7 slides against the inner wall of the extension frame 8. The mounting plate 1 is provided with an elastic component 9 inside the transparent cover 4. The direction of the elastic component 9 is the same as the direction of the inner cavity of the extension frame 8. The upper end of the elastic component 9 is detachably connected to the transparent plate 7. When the elastic component 9 is in the initial state, the transparent plate 7 is stopped at the mounting opening 6.

[0025] The mesh-like protective cover 5 blocks large flying stones with high kinetic energy, while the transparent cover 4 and transparent plate 7 block smaller flying stones that pass through the protective cover 5, providing comprehensive protection and preventing damage to the transparent cover 4 from large flying stones. This provides good protection for the lamp body 3. The elastic component 9 provides the transparent plate 7 with a certain elastic buffer. When a small flying stone hits the transparent plate 7, the transparent plate 7 slides into the transparent cover 4 along the extension frame 8 inside the mounting opening 6. During this process, some of the kinetic energy of the small flying stone is converted into the elastic potential energy of the elastic component 9 connected to the transparent plate 7, thereby reducing the instantaneous impact force of the small flying stone on the transparent plate 7, thus improving the impact resistance of the transparent cover 4 and enhancing its protective ability. After the small flying stone bounces away, the elastic component 9 can safely release the elastic potential energy accumulated during the compression process as it returns to its original shape. The elastic plate maintains the state of blocking the inner cavity of the extension frame 8 when sliding, thereby preventing external impurities from mixing into the transparent cover 4 and affecting the lamp body 3. The protective cover 5 and the mounting plate 1, as well as the transparent plate 7 and the elastic component 9, are detachably connected. When the protective cover 5 and the transparent plate 7 are severely damaged, they can be replaced, making maintenance convenient.

[0026] Furthermore, the transparent panel 7 is composed of several transparent panels 10 of the same shape that abut against each other. Each of the front and rear sides of the transparent panel 10 is provided with an extension plate 11 extending into the transparent cover 4. The left and right ends of the extension plate 11 slide against the inner wall of the extension frame 8. The transparent panel 10 can slide along the channel enclosed by the extension plate 11 and the extension frame 8 adjacent to it. At this time, the outer edge of the transparent panel 10 slides against the extension plate 11 or the inner wall of the extension frame 8. Each transparent panel 10 is connected to a corresponding elastic component 9. The upper end of the elastic component 9 is detachably connected to the transparent panel 10. When the elastic component 9 is in the initial state, the transparent panel 10 stops at the mounting port 6.

[0027] When small flying stones continuously impact the transparent plate 7, the elastic component 9 does not have time to release the previously accumulated elastic potential energy, and the buffering capacity is not restored, causing the transparent plate 7 to be unable to reduce the impact of the small flying stones. The transparent plate 7 is divided into several transparent sub-plates 10, each of which is connected to an elastic component 9. When small flying stones continuously impact the transparent cover 4, the impact position of the small flying stones is generally not fixed. Only the transparent sub-plate 10 that is impacted slides inward, while the other transparent sub-plates 10 remain at the mounting opening 6. The elastic components 9 connected to them have normal buffering capacity, and the transparent sub-plates 10 that slide inward can reset when they are not impacted, and the elastic components 9 connected to them restore their buffering capacity. This makes the transparent cover 4 more flexible in responding to the impact of small flying stones and provides better protection. In addition, when a transparent sub-plate 10 is severely damaged, only the damaged transparent sub-plate 10 needs to be replaced. The other transparent sub-plates 10 in good condition do not need to be replaced. Compared with the transparent plate 7 that is connected as one piece, the maintenance cost is lower. During the sliding process of the transparent partition 10, it maintains the state of blocking the channel in which it slides, thereby preventing external impurities from mixing into the transparent cover 4 and affecting the lamp body 3.

[0028] Furthermore, the extension plate 11 is located above the lamp body 3, and the bottom of the extension plate 11 is provided with a groove 12 corresponding to the shape of the lamp body 3 below.

[0029] The groove 12 prevents the extension plate 11, which moves inward with the transparent partition 10, from hitting the lamp body 3, thereby increasing the depth to which the transparent partition 10 can slide into the transparent cover 4.

[0030] Furthermore, the number of transparent panels 10 is three.

[0031] Furthermore, the elastic component 9 includes a movable plate 13, a buckle 14, and a spring 15. The movable plate 13 is provided inside the transparent cover 4. The inner wall of the transparent cover 4 is provided with a groove 16 that is in the same direction as the inner cavity of the extension frame 8. The edge of the movable plate 13 is provided with a slider 17, which is slidably connected to the groove 16. The top of the movable plate 13 is provided with a buckle 14, and the bottom of the transparent plate 7 is provided with a corresponding groove 18. The detachable connection between the transparent plate 7 and the elastic component 9 is achieved through the buckle 14 and the groove 18. A spring 15 is connected between the bottom of the movable plate 13 and the top of the mounting plate 1. The axis of the spring 15 is in the same direction as the groove 16.

[0032] A spring 15 capable of elastic deformation provides a cushioning function. The sliding direction and range of the movable plate 13 are limited by the combined use of the slider 17 and the slide groove 16, thereby increasing the sliding stability of the transparent plate 7 connected to the movable plate 13. Specifically, when the slider 17 moves to the highest point of the slide groove 16, the transparent plate 7 connected to the movable plate 13 moves to the mounting opening 6. When installing the transparent plate 7, press the transparent plate 7 into the mounting opening 6 with the slot 18 aligned with the buckle 14. The transparent plate 7 presses down on the movable plate 13 and moves downward. The slider 17 moves downward accordingly. When the slider 17 moves to the lowest point of the slide groove 16, the movable plate 13 stops. The buckle 14 connected to the movable plate 13 is squeezed into the aligned slot 18, completing the installation of the transparent plate 7. When removing the transparent plate 7, pull the transparent plate 7 outward. At this time, the slider 17 is at the highest point of the slide groove 16, and the movable plate 13 cannot be raised further. Finally, the buckle 14 disengages from the slot 18, completing the removal of the transparent plate 7. Specifically, in order to facilitate the removal of the transparent plate 7, the top of the transparent plate 7 is generally provided with a component that facilitates the exertion of force, such as a pull ring or a protrusion. Such components are not shown in the attached drawings.

[0033] Furthermore, the protective cover 5 is connected to the fixing plate 19. The fixing plate 19 has a mating interface 20 on the inner side of the protective cover 5. The transparent cover 4 enters and exits the protective cover 5 through the mating interface 20. The fixing plate 19 has several threaded through holes 21 on its edge. The mounting plate 1 has threaded holes 22 corresponding to the threaded through holes 21. When the transparent cover 4 is inserted into the protective cover 5, the bottom of the fixing plate 19 abuts against the top of the mounting plate 1, and the threaded through holes 21 and threaded holes 22 overlap. The detachable connection between the protective cover 5 and the mounting plate 1 is achieved by screwing the fixing screws 23 into the overlapping threaded through holes 21 and threaded holes 22.

[0034] The installation and removal of fixing screw 23 is simple, reducing the difficulty of installing and removing the protective cover 5 onto the mounting plate 1.

[0035] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0036] During installation, first install the mounting plate 1 in the predetermined position, then press the transparent partition 10 into the mounting port 6 in sequence, so that the clip 14 of the elastic component 9 is snapped into the slot 18 of the transparent partition 10, thus completing the connection between the transparent partition 10 and the elastic component 9. Then, install the fixing plate 19 onto the mounting plate 1, and then connect the fixing plate 19 and the mounting plate 1 with the fixing screw 23 to complete the installation.

[0037] When a portion of the transparent panel 10 is severely damaged, first unscrew the fixing screw 23 and remove the fixing plate 19, then pull out the damaged transparent panel 10, then press the new transparent panel 10 into the gap left in the mounting port 6, so that the new transparent panel 10 is connected to the elastic component 9, and finally reinstall the fixing plate 19 and screw on the fixing screw 23 to complete the repair.

[0038] The above are merely specific application examples of this utility model and do not constitute any limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. All technical solutions formed by equivalent transformations or equivalent substitutions fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
