As a core component of modern advertising decoration and architectural lighting, the installation efficiency and splicing effect of neon light strips directly affect the project quality and visual presentation.

[0003] Traditional neon light strip assembly relies on the operator's experience, and misalignment and excessive gaps at the joints can easily occur, leading to light leakage or uneven brightness at the joints. This problem is particularly pronounced in curved curtain walls and irregular shapes, affecting the overall aesthetics. Assembling complex shapes is also time-consuming and requires tools (such as screwdrivers and hot glue guns), making it difficult to meet project deadlines. Utility Model Content

[0025] Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4 This embodiment of the present invention provides a seamless splicing device for neon light strips, comprising:

[0027] The support assembly 100 includes a base 101, a support seat 102 fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the base 101, a support plate 103 snapped onto the side wall of the support seat 102, and a limiting plate 104 fixedly connected to the end of the support plate 103.

[0028] The docking assembly 200 includes a fixed seat 201 inserted into the side wall of the support base 102, a cylinder 202 fixedly connected in the middle of the fixed seat 201, a push plate 203 fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 202, and a pad 204 installed on the side wall of the push plate 203. The bottom of the push plate 203 slides in contact with the upper surface of the support base 102, and the pad 204 cooperates with the limiting plate 104.

[0029] The base 101 and the support 102 engage in a snap-fit ​​structure to achieve rapid positioning and installation. The support 102 and the support plate 103 engage in a snap-fit ​​structure to provide bottom support for the neon light strip. The limiting plate 104 guides the end of the neon light strip into the docking position; the cylinder 202 is fixed in the middle of the fixed base 201 and drives the push plate 203 to slide along the upper surface of the support 102; the pad 204 cooperates with the limiting plate 104 to limit the neon light strip and ensure uniform pressure is applied during docking.

[0030] Specifically, the base 101 has mounting holes on its side wall that mate with the support 102, and the support 102 has mounting holes on its upper surface that mate with the fixing base 201.

[0031] The addition of mounting holes facilitates the adjustment of the installation positions of the support base 102 and the fixing base 201, adapting to the connection of neon light strips of different sizes.

[0032] Furthermore, the docking assembly 200 also includes a guide rod 205 fixedly connected to the side wall of the push plate 203, with the end of the guide rod 205 inserted into the side wall of the fixing seat 201.

[0033] The guide rod 205 works in conjunction with the push plate 203 to form a double guide structure parallel to the central axis of the cylinder 202, thereby improving the accuracy of the push plate 203's movement.

[0034] Furthermore, the docking assembly 200 also includes a crossbeam 206 fixedly connected to the end of the limiting plate 104, a support rod 207 inserted in the middle of the crossbeam 206, and a pressure plate 208 fixedly connected to the lower end of the support rod 207. The pressure plate 208 is located above the support plate 103. The docking assembly 200 also includes a spring 209 sleeved in the middle of the support rod 207. One end of the spring 209 is in elastic contact with the side wall of the pressure plate 208, and the other end of the spring 209 is in elastic contact with the bottom of the crossbeam 206.

[0035] The lower end of the support rod 207 is fixed to the pressure plate 208, and a compression spring 209 is sleeved in the middle to form an elastic pressing structure. When it contacts the top surface of the light strip, it can apply elastic pressure to prevent the light strip from tilting up during the docking process.

[0036] It should be noted that the docking assembly 200 also includes an adjusting bolt 210 threaded to the top of the support rod 207, and the adjusting bolt 210 is installed above the crossbeam 206.

[0037] The extension length of the support rod 207 can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting bolt 210, thereby changing the compression of the spring 209 to adapt to neon light strips of different thicknesses.

[0038] Preferably, the side wall of the pad 204 has a protrusion, and the width of the pad 204 is the same as that of the push plate 203.

[0039] In use, the ends of the two neon light strips are placed sequentially on top of the support plate 103, with the bottom surface of the light strips contacting the support plate and the sides abutting against the arc-shaped guide surface of the limiting plate 104. Rotating the adjusting bolt 210 causes the pressure plate 208 to gently press the top surface of the light strip through the elastic force of the spring 209, fixing the position of the light strip and ensuring alignment of the mating ends. The air source of the drive cylinder 202 is activated, causing the cylinder 202 to move the push plate 203 along the guide rod 205 towards the limiting plate 104. The pad 204 at the front end of the push plate 203 contacts the end of the light strip through its protrusion, applying a horizontal thrust to ensure a tight engagement of the electrode interfaces or slots of the two light strips. At this time, the elastic material of the pad 204 buffers the thrust, preventing damage to the light strip due to hard compression. After the light strips are mated, the cylinder 202 remains ventilated to maintain the thrust. Because the support plate 103 and the limiting plate 104 form a three-dimensional limiting, the mating gap achieves a visually "seamless" effect. After docking is completed, the air supply is disconnected, the cylinder push rod retracts, and the push plate 203 returns to its original position under the pulling force of the cylinder 202. Lift the pressure plate 208 upwards to remove the docked LED strip assembly.

[0040] In summary, the three-dimensional limiting structure ensures the alignment of the axes at the LED strip's mating ends. Combined with the protrusions of the pad 204, it precisely aligns with the LED strip interface, eliminating misalignment gaps inherent in traditional manual mating and enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal. The combination of the elastic pad 204 and spring 209 achieves "flexible pressure," preventing cracking of the LED strip shell or electrode deformation caused by rigid collisions, making it particularly suitable for flexible materials such as PVC and silicone. The design of the adjusting bolt 210 and spring 209 allows for compatibility with LED strips of different specifications, enabling compatibility with round, flat, and irregularly shaped cross-section LED strips without component replacement, thus reducing installation costs.
