Detailed Implementation

[0029] The applicant of this application analyzed and studied existing solar lamps and found that although the required components of solar lamps vary depending on the power, the various components can be combined into several basic modules according to their functions. Customers can then freely combine different modules based on their required power, thus reducing the assembly difficulty of solar lamps. Specifically, a mounting cover that fits onto the top of the pole can be provided and combined with different support frames for supporting the solar panels. During installation or maintenance, the mounting cover, combined with the different support frames, covers the top of the pole, protecting the internal wiring while allowing for quick installation of different functional modules onto the pole, enabling rapid installation of various solar lamps. The following are some specific embodiments of the solar street light of this utility model:

[0030] Example 1:

[0031] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 In this embodiment, the solar lamp includes a pole 10, a lamp assembly 20, a mounting cover 30, a support frame 40, a solar panel 50, a storage battery 60, and a control assembly 70.

[0032] The rod 10 is hollow inside and extends vertically, with an opening at its top. The rod 10 supports the lighting assembly 20, the mounting cover 30, the support frame 40, the solar panel 50, the storage battery 60, and the control assembly 70.

[0033] Please see Figure 2 The lighting assembly 20 includes a lamp body 21, a support 22, a cover plate 23, a support rod 24, and a mounting plate 25. The lamp body 21 emits light downwards. The support 22 is located on the side of the lamp body 21 facing the rod 10 and has an upward-opening mounting groove. The cover plate 23 covers the mounting groove of the support 22 and is fixed to the support 22 with screws, thereby forming an insertion space on one side of the lamp body 21. The support rod 24 is inserted into the insertion space, located between the support 22 and the cover plate 23, and extends radially toward the rod 10. The mounting plate 25 is fixedly connected to the support rod 24 and connects the support rod 24 and the rod 10, with its plate surface fitting against the outer surface of the rod 10. The mounting plate 25 has at least two threaded holes (not labeled) arranged vertically for fixing to the rod 10 with screws. In use, lamp bodies 21 with different power can be selected and connected to the support rod 24 as needed, and installed on the rod body 10 through the support rod 24.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 3As shown, the support rod 24 is hollow and penetrates the mounting plate 25. A hook 26 is fixed inside the support rod 24. The hook 26 is located near the lower part of the support rod 24 and extends axially towards the rod body 10 along the support rod 24. One end of the hook 26 extends beyond the support rod 24, separated from the mounting plate 25 by a distance, and extends downward along the axial direction of the rod body 10. An opening 11 is provided on the rod body 10. During installation, the end of the hook 26 outside the support rod 24 extends into the opening 11, clamping the side wall of the rod body 10 between the mounting plate 25 and the hook 26. This facilitates the pre-positioning of the mounting plate 25 on the rod body 10 and the installation with screws, etc.

[0035] The mounting cover 30 is a cylindrical body with an opening at one end, its axis extending vertically. The opening faces the rod 10 and covers the top of the rod 10 to form a sealed space at the top of the rod 10. The storage battery 60 and the control assembly 70 are disposed within the sealed space and fixed to the inner wall of the rod 10 or the mounting cover 30. The top wall of the mounting cover 30 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane.

[0036] The support frame 40 is mounted on the top wall of the mounting cover 30. In this embodiment, the support frame 40 includes a horizontal plate 41, the surface of which is in contact with the top wall of the mounting cover 30, so that the support frame 40 is also inclined relative to the horizontal plane. The solar panel 50 is mounted on the horizontal plate 41, the surface of which is parallel to the surface of the horizontal plate 41, and the inclined solar panel 50 can receive sunlight well. In this embodiment, the top of the mounting cover 30 is provided with a blind hole 31 extending in a vertical direction, and the support frame 40 has a positioning post 42 protruding on the side facing the mounting cover 30. The positioning post 42 is inserted into the blind hole 31 to quickly install the support frame 40 onto the mounting cover 30.

[0037] The control component 70 includes an electronic circuit board 71, as is common in the art. Cables for the lamp body 21 and the solar panel 50 pass through the side wall of the pole 10 and the top wall of the mounting cover 30, respectively, to be electrically connected to the electronic circuit board 71. The storage battery 60 is electrically connected to the electronic circuit board 71. Under the control of the electronic circuit board 71, the solar panel 50 receives light energy and converts it into electrical energy, which is stored in the storage battery 60 and supplied to the lamp body 21 to emit light.

[0038] Furthermore, the control component 70 also includes a motor 72 electrically connected to the electronic circuit board 71, the output shaft of which extends vertically. The mounting cover 30 surrounds the outer side of the side wall of the rod 10, and the inner side wall is provided with internal teeth. The output shaft of the motor 72 meshes with the internal teeth of the mounting cover 30 through gears, driving the mounting cover 30 to rotate around the axis of the rod 10, so as to adjust the orientation of the solar panel 50 according to the position of the sun.

[0039] Example 2:

[0040] In Embodiment 1, if the lamp body 21 has a low power consumption, the required volume of the storage battery 60 is also relatively small, and it can be placed within the sealed space formed by the rod 10 and the mounting cover 30. However, as the power of the lamp body 21 increases, the volume of the storage battery 60 also increases. If it is to continue to be installed in the sealed space, the volume of the rod 10 and the mounting cover 30 will increase, making processing difficult. Moreover, the high-power storage battery 60 generates a lot of heat, and the sealed space is not conducive to heat dissipation. Therefore, in order to provide power to the high-power lamp body 21 while reducing processing difficulty, the solar lamp fixture in this embodiment is also provided. Please refer to the following: Figures 6 to 9 Compared with the solar lamp in Example 1, the difference is as follows:

[0041] The system also includes a battery protection assembly 80, which surrounds the outside of the battery 60 and includes a protective shell 81, a protective cover 82, and a fan 83. The protective shell 81 is a box-like structure located between the solar panel 50 and the support frame 40. Two openings 811 spaced apart are formed on one side connecting the solar panel 50 and the support frame 40. The protective cover 82 covers the vents 811 and has a gap between itself and the protective shell 81, allowing airflow to flow from the gap between the protective shell 81 and the protective cover 82 to the vents 811, and then into the protective shell 81 from the vents 811. The fan 83 is positioned near the two openings 811 to draw air from the vents 821 of one side of the protective cover 82 into the protective shell 81, creating an airflow, which is then exhausted from the protective shell 81 through the vents 821 of the other side of the protective cover 82.

[0042] The mounting cover 30 has a first seat 32 protruding from its top. The first seat 32 extends in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the rod 10, and a first tooth 321 protrudes from one end in the extending direction.

[0043] The support frame 40 includes a horizontal plate 41 and two vertical plates 43. The two vertical plates 43 protrude parallel to each other on the surface of the horizontal plate 41 facing the solar panel 50 and extend in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the horizontal plate 41. The solar panel 50 is installed on the side of the two vertical plates 43 away from the horizontal plate 41, thus forming a large accommodating space between the solar panel 50, the horizontal plate 41, and the two vertical plates 43. The battery protection assembly 80, together with the battery 60, is located within the accommodating space and placed on the horizontal plate 41. The horizontal plate 41 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane, and the two openings 811 of the protective shell 81 are located between the two vertical plates 43 and face upwards, providing a large installation space for the battery 60 while preventing rainwater and other substances from entering the battery protection assembly 80.

[0044] A second seat 44 protrudes from the side of the horizontal plate 41 facing away from the solar panel 50. The extension direction of the second seat 44 is parallel to the extension direction of the first seat 32, and it is positioned opposite to the first seat 32. A second tooth 441 is provided on the side of the second seat 44 near the first seat 32. After the first tooth 321 and the second tooth 441 mesh with each other, the first seat 32 and the second seat 44 are fixed together by screws or the like. Furthermore, changing the meshing position of the first tooth 321 and the second tooth 441 can adjust the tilt angle of the solar panel 50.

[0045] Furthermore, the control component 70 also includes a human body sensor 73 and / or a wireless signal receiver 74, which are electrically connected to the electronic circuit board 71 respectively. The human body sensor 73 and the wireless signal receiver 74 are located on the side of the vertical plate 43 facing away from the battery protection component 80, and are facing outwards to detect and / or receive control signals. The human body sensor 72 is used to sense the distance between a human body and the solar lamp and control the switching of the lamp body 21; the wireless signal receiver 73 receives signals from a remote control or the like and controls the switching of the lamp body 21. The human body sensor 72 and the wireless signal receiver 73 can be found in the prior art.

[0046] Example 3:

[0047] Since the solar lamps primarily rely on capturing solar energy and converting it into electrical energy to emit light, users may need to use multiple solar panels 50 to capture more solar energy. Therefore, the solar lamps described in this embodiment are also included. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 10 Compared with the solar lamps of Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the difference is as follows:

[0048] The top wall of the mounting cover 30 extends horizontally.

[0049] The support frame 40 includes a horizontal bar 45 and several vertical bars 46. The horizontal bar 45 extends radially to both sides along the mounting cover 30. The several vertical bars 46 are evenly spaced along the horizontal bar 45 and extend vertically upward. Each solar panel 50 is fixed to the top of each vertical bar 46. The top of each vertical bar 46 may be provided with an inclined outer surface, so that each solar panel 50 is tilted.

[0050] Furthermore, several downward-extending booms 47 are fixed below the crossbar 45, and several lamp bodies 21 are respectively suspended below the crossbar 45 through each boom 47, thereby realizing the installation of multiple lamp bodies 21.

[0051] Compared with existing technologies, the solar lamp of this invention has the following advantages:

[0052] 1. Simple installation and easy maintenance;

[0053] 2. It can effectively absorb sunlight to generate electricity, and can be used in high-power lamps or multiple lamps;

[0054] 3. The angle of the solar panel is easy to adjust.
