The housing has connectors at both ends for reinforcing the connection between the lampshade and the housing. Each connector includes a second fastening part, and the bottom edge of the lampshade has a first fastening part. The first and second fastening parts are fastened together.

[0007] Furthermore, the top edge of the housing expands outward to form a fastening edge portion for accommodating the first fastening portion.

[0008] Furthermore, a support portion is provided at the bottom of the housing, and the support portion has a hollow shell structure.

[0009] Furthermore, the connector also includes a connecting part and a latching part integrally connected to the second fastening part, wherein the connecting part is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the housing, one end of the latching part is connected to the connecting part, and the other end is connected to the second fastening part.

[0010] Furthermore, the fastening part is in the shape of a half-mouth.

[0011] Furthermore, the first fastening part is in the shape of a "√", and the second fastening part is in the shape of a "√", so that the two can cooperate with each other.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: the light strip is installed inside the housing, and the lampshade is placed over the opening of the housing, so that the lamp is fixed to the lampshade and the housing to form a sealed space, which protects the light strip. At the same time, a first fastening part is provided on the bottom edge of the lampshade, and a connector is provided on the housing. The second fastening part of the connector and the first fastening part are fastened to each other to realize the fastening connection between the lampshade and the housing. Compared with the traditional installation and fixing with screws, the installation is more convenient. Attached Figure Description
