[0012] Optionally, the elastic ring includes a slotted block and a pointed block arranged opposite to each other. The slotted block forms the groove on the surface opposite to the pointed block, and the pointed corner of the pointed block abuts against the light-transmitting cover to make an interference fit with the light-transmitting cover.

[0013] Optionally, the elastic ring includes a plurality of pointed blocks arranged side by side in the slotted block, so that the elastic ring is interference-fitted with the light-transmitting cover through the plurality of pointed blocks.

[0014] Optionally, the light-transmitting cover has a through hole protruding from the outer edge of the elastic ring, and the connecting component moves through the through hole so that the light-transmitting cover is locked to or unlocked to the lamp body.

[0015] Optionally, the thickness of the light-transmitting cover is defined as T, the side of the light-transmitting cover closest to the through hole is defined as the adjacent side, and the distance L from the opening edge of the through hole to the adjacent side of the light-transmitting cover is 1.5T to 2.5T.

[0016] Optionally, the connecting assembly includes a pressing member and a threaded member.

[0029] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0030] 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.

[0031] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0032] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the lamp 1000 includes: a lamp body 100, the lamp body 100 having an open cavity 100a; an elastic ring 300, the surface of the elastic ring 300 having a groove 300a, the cavity wall at the opening of the cavity 100a being inserted into the groove 300a; a light-transmitting cover 500, the light-transmitting cover 500 being disposed on the surface of the elastic ring 300 away from the groove 300a; and a connecting component 700, the connecting component 700 being used to lock or unlock the light-transmitting cover 500 to the lamp body 100, so as to seal or open the cavity 100a.

[0033] In the technical solution of this utility model, the lamp body 100 forms a cavity 100a with an opening, and a photoelectric element 110 is installed in the cavity 100a. A groove 300a is formed on the surface of the elastic ring 300. The cavity wall at the opening of the cavity 100a is inserted into the groove 300a of the elastic ring 300. A light-transmitting cover 500 is disposed on the surface of the elastic ring 300 away from the groove 300a. In this way, when the light-transmitting cover 500 is squeezed, the light-transmitting cover 500, the elastic ring 300 and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a are tightly fitted together. Thus, by locking the light-transmitting cover 500 to the lamp body 100 through the connecting component 700, the cavity 100a is sealed, preventing water from entering the cavity 100a and ensuring the waterproof effect of the lamp 1000. When the connecting component 700 unlocks the light-transmitting cover 500 to the lamp body 100, the cavity 100a can be opened, facilitating the maintenance of the photoelectric component 110 inside the lamp 1000. This utility model ensures the waterproof function of the lamp 1000 while facilitating the maintenance of the internal photoelectric component 110.

[0034] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the insertion of the elastic ring 300 into the lamp body 100 is achieved through the setting of the groove 300a. The groove 300a can have various shapes, as long as it can achieve a tight fit between the elastic ring 300 and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a. Preferably, the groove 300a can be an annular groove, with the peripheral wall of the cavity 100a inserted into the annular groove. This ensures the assembly stability of the elastic ring 300 while improving the waterproof rating of the lamp 1000. In this embodiment, the light-transmitting cover 500 can be flat glass, plexiglass, or PC board (PC is short for polycarbonate sheet), as long as it can transmit the light emitted by the lamp body 100. Furthermore, the elastic ring 300 protrudes from the cavity wall of the cavity 100a, and the light-transmitting cover 500 covers the elastic ring 300. When subjected to compression, the light-transmitting cover 500, the elastic ring 300, and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a fit tightly together. Thus, the connecting component 700 locks the light-transmitting cover 500 and the lamp body 100, thereby sealing the cavity 100a. Of course, the connecting component 700 can be connected in various ways, including threaded connection, snap-fit ​​connection, and locking connection, as long as it can lock and unlock the light-transmitting cover 500 on the lamp body 100. This embodiment is not limited to these methods, and all of the above are within the protection scope of this utility model. This embodiment, through the setting of the elastic ring 300, seals the cavity 100a, achieving an IP66 waterproof rating for the lamp 1000. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the elastic ring 300 is disposed between the light-transmitting cover 500 and the lamp body 100. The light-transmitting cover 500 does not contact the lamp body 100. When the glass is used as the light-transmitting cover 500, it effectively prevents the glass from breaking and achieves a protection level of 1000IK08 or higher for the lamp.

[0035] See Figures 1 to 7As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the groove 300a includes a guide opening 301a and a mounting groove 302a connected together. The opening of the guide opening 301a is larger than the opening of the mounting groove 302a, and the groove wall of the mounting groove 302a is interference-fitted with the cavity wall of the cavity 100a. It should be noted that, by providing a guide opening 301a with a larger opening than the mounting groove 302a, the elastic ring 300 is guided and installed onto the cavity wall of the cavity 100a through the guide opening 301a, thereby facilitating the installation of the elastic ring 300 on the lamp body 100. Furthermore, the interference fit between the groove wall of the mounting groove 302a and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a achieves waterproofing between the elastic ring 300 and the lamp body 100, preventing water from entering the cavity 100a through the gap between the elastic ring 300 and the lamp body 100. Of course, the interference fit between the groove wall of the mounting groove 302a and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a can be achieved by the diameter of the mounting groove 302a being gradually changed, or by the groove wall of the mounting groove 302a having protrusions. The protrusions can be wedge-shaped blocks of different shapes such as triangles and trapezoids, or the cavity wall of the cavity 100a can have protrusions. As long as the interference fit between the groove wall of the mounting groove 302a and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a is achieved, this utility model is not limited to these. All of the above are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0036] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a rounded protrusion 311 is formed on the side wall of the mounting groove 302a, and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a abuts against the rounded protrusion 311, so that the elastic ring 300 is interference-fitted with the cavity wall of the cavity 100a. It should be noted that by forming a rounded protrusion 311 on the side wall of the mounting groove 302a, this embodiment facilitates the smooth insertion of the cavity wall of the cavity 100a into the groove 300a of the elastic ring 300, avoiding jamming of the elastic ring 300 on the lamp body 100. Furthermore, the cavity wall of the cavity 100a abuts against the rounded protrusion 311, so that the groove wall of the mounting groove 302a and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a are interference-fitted, achieving waterproofing between the elastic ring 300 and the lamp body 100, and improving the waterproof rating of the lamp 1000.

[0037] See Figures 1 to 7As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the two oppositely arranged side walls of the mounting groove 302a are respectively formed with rounded corner protrusions 311. The two rounded corner protrusions 311 of the mounting groove 302a are arranged opposite to each other, and the cavity wall of the cavity 100a is sandwiched between the two rounded corner protrusions 311. It should be noted that in this embodiment, by clamping the cavity wall of the cavity 100a with the two oppositely arranged rounded corner protrusions 311, the cavity wall of the cavity 100a is simultaneously interference-fitted with the oppositely arranged side walls of the mounting groove 302a, forming two waterproof gates. This prevents water from entering the cavity 100a through the gap between the elastic ring 300 and the lamp body 100, further improving the waterproof effect between the elastic ring 300 and the lamp body 100, thereby improving the waterproof rating of the lamp 1000.

[0038] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the elastic ring 300 includes a slotted block 310 and a pointed block 330 disposed opposite to each other. The surface of the slotted block 310 opposite to the pointed block 330 forms a groove 300a, and the pointed corner of the pointed block 330 abuts against the light-transmitting cover 500 to achieve an interference fit with the light-transmitting cover 500. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the pointed block 330 protrudes from the cavity wall of the cavity 100a. When the light-transmitting cover 500 is placed on the pointed block 330, the pointed block 330 undergoes elastic deformation under compression, thereby achieving an interference fit between the elastic ring 300 and the light-transmitting cover 500. This prevents water from entering the cavity 100a through the gap between the elastic ring 300 and the light-transmitting cover 500, thus improving the waterproof rating of the lamp 1000.

[0039] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the elastic ring 300 includes a plurality of sharp-cornered blocks 330, which are arranged side by side in the slotted block 310 so that the elastic ring 300 is interference-fitted with the light-transmitting cover 500 through the plurality of sharp-cornered blocks 330. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the elastic ring 300 can be provided with a corresponding number of sharp-cornered blocks 330 according to its ring size. Specifically, three sharp-cornered blocks 330 are protruding from the surface of the slotted block 310, and the three sharp-cornered blocks 330 are respectively protruding from the cavity wall of the cavity 100a. The elastic ring 300 is interference-fitted with the light-transmitting cover 500 through the three sharp-cornered blocks 330, forming three waterproof gates, further preventing water from entering the cavity 100a through the gap between the elastic ring 300 and the light-transmitting cover 500, thereby improving the waterproof rating of the lamp 1000. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the light-transmitting cover 500 can be made of glass. The elastic ring 300 abuts against the glass light-transmitting cover 500 by protruding multiple sharp corner blocks 330, thereby creating a certain distance between the light-transmitting cover 500 and the lamp body 100, thus preventing the glass from breaking due to contact with the lamp body 100 and improving the protection level of the lamp 1000.

[0040] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a through hole 500a is provided on the outer edge of the light-transmitting cover 500 protruding from the elastic ring 300, and the connecting component 700 is movably passed through the through hole 500a so that the light-transmitting cover 500 can be locked to or unlocked from the lamp body 100. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the through hole 500a is provided on the outer edge of the light-transmitting cover 500 protruding from the elastic ring 300, and the connecting component 700 is movably passed through the through hole 500a so that the light-transmitting cover 500 can be locked to or unlocked from the lamp body 100. While ensuring the waterproof function of the lamp 1000, it also facilitates the clearance of the internal photoelectric element 110. Of course, the connecting component 700 can be threaded to the lamp body 100 or locked to the lamp body 100. This utility model is not limited to this, and all of the above are within the protection scope of this utility model. Additional explanation: The photoelectric element 110 includes a lamp board 111, a lens 112, and a power supply 113, etc. The lamp board 111, lens 112, and power supply 113 are respectively disposed in the cavity 100a. Of course, a surge arrester 120, a waterproof connector 130, and a breather 140 can also be disposed. The angle adjuster 150 is installed on the lamp body 100, and the lamp 1000 is fixed by the angle adjuster 150, thereby realizing the adjustment of the angle of the lamp 1000. This utility model embodiment is not limited to this, and all of the above are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0041] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the thickness of the light-transmitting cover 500 is defined as T, the side of the light-transmitting cover 500 closest to the through hole 500a is defined as the adjacent side, and the distance L from the opening edge of the through hole 500a to the adjacent side of the light-transmitting cover 500 is 1.5T to 2.5T. It should be noted that the light-transmitting cover 500 in this embodiment has four sides, and the side closest to the through hole 500a is defined as the adjacent side. In this embodiment, the opening position is located based on the thickness of the light-transmitting cover 500. While realizing the installation and fixation of the connecting component 700, it avoids edge breakage caused by the opening of the light-transmitting cover 500, especially when the light-transmitting cover 500 is a glass structural component, effectively avoiding glass breakage; on the other hand, it ensures the light-transmitting area of ​​the light-transmitting cover 500, meeting the lighting requirements.

[0042] See Figures 1 to 7As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the connecting component 700 includes a pressing member 710 and a threaded member 730. The pressing member 710 is disposed on the surface of the light-transmitting cover 500 away from the elastic ring 300 and abuts against the lamp body 100. The threaded member 730 passes through the pressing member 710 and the through hole 500a in sequence and is threadedly connected to the lamp body 100. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the pressing member 710 is limited by abutting against the edge of the lamp body 100, which prevents the pressing member 710 from rotating during the threaded locking process of the threaded member 730, and ensures the locking effect of the threaded member 730 on the light-transmitting cover 500 and the lamp body 100, thereby ensuring the waterproof function of the lamp 1000. Specifically, the threaded part 730 can be a bolt. In order to further ensure the waterproof function of the lamp 1000, this embodiment can also provide multiple connecting components 700 as needed. The multiple connecting components 700 are respectively set on different sides of the light-transmitting cover 500. This embodiment is not limited to this. All of the above are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0043] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the pressing member 710 includes a pressing sheet 711 and an elastic sheet 713. The elastic sheet 713 and the pressing sheet 711 are sequentially disposed on the surface of the light-transmitting cover 500. The side of the pressing sheet 711 protrudes from the periphery of the light-transmitting cover 500 and abuts against the lamp body 100. It should be noted that the side of the pressing sheet 711 protrudes from the periphery of the light-transmitting cover 500 and abuts against the lamp body 100. The pressing sheet 711 and the elastic sheet 713 are glued together. In this way, the pressing member 710 is limited by limiting the pressing sheet 711, which avoids rotation during the threaded locking process of the threaded member 730 and ensures the locking effect between the light-transmitting cover 500 and the lamp body 100. Furthermore, the elastic sheet 713 is disposed between the pressure sheet 711 and the light-transmitting cover 500. When the light-transmitting cover 500 is made of glass, this avoids the glass breaking caused by the pressure sheet 711 coming into contact with it. Of course, in this embodiment, the area of ​​the elastic sheet 713 can also be appropriately increased to increase the force-bearing area of ​​the glass, prevent the glass from breaking, and achieve a protection level of IK08 or higher.

[0044] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
