Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of LED strip fixing technology, specifically an LED strip fixing structure. Background Technology

[0002] Cable tray lights are mainly used for exterior wall lighting of buildings, shopping mall lighting, supermarket lighting, garage lighting, etc. Traditional cable tray lights are mainly fluorescent lamps, which occupy a large market share. However, traditional fluorescent lamps use voltage to heat the filament to vaporize mercury-containing compounds, which then excite the phosphor on the tube wall to emit light. This method is not only energy-intensive but also extremely environmentally unfriendly because mercury is a toxic heavy metal. Discarding used fluorescent tubes will cause environmental pollution. Therefore, LED lights have emerged. LED lights are lighting fixtures that use high-brightness white light-emitting diodes as the light source. Its core component is the LED, a solid-state semiconductor device that can directly convert electrical energy into light energy to provide illumination for the surrounding environment. LED cable tray light modules have many advantages such as high luminous efficiency, low power consumption, long lifespan, safety, and environmental friendliness. However, during the installation of existing LED cable tray lights, because traditional light strips are fixed by glue or clips, workers often cut corners and lay them haphazardly, leading to uneven lighting in the space.

[0003] To address this, an existing design discloses a reflective LED trough light main housing (patent number CN2017208953071), comprising an aluminum profile housing divided into upper and lower parts by a middle partition. The lower part of the housing has an open light outlet at the bottom, with a load plate mounting groove on each side of the light outlet. The two load plate mounting grooves are arranged opposite each other at an upward angle. The top of the light outlet has an upwardly protruding reflective arc surface. The outer side of each load plate mounting groove has a heat dissipation groove, and below each heat dissipation groove is a side strip fixing groove. Inside the side strip fixing groove is a first end cap fixing screw hole. The top of the upper part of the housing is open, with a mounting slot on each of the upper sides. Below each mounting slot is a second end cap fixing screw hole.

[0004] However, although the above technical solution sets up an upward-convex reflective arc surface to achieve a soft and non-glaring light effect, the curvature of the reflective arc surface may not achieve the ideal lighting effect. In addition, the lack of a heat dissipation structure means that long-term high-temperature operation will affect the performance and lifespan of LED chips and other electronic components, leading to problems such as accelerated light decay and increased failure rate of the lamps, thus increasing the user's maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an LED light strip fixing structure.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an LED light strip fixing structure, comprising: a vertically oriented connector, a mounting plate for fixing the light strip being movably disposed within the connector, and hooks for limiting and securing the mounting plate at both ends of the connector, wherein the hooks are perpendicular to the end face of the connector to which they are connected, and the vertical extension surface of the hooks forms a sealed quadrilateral with the connector.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this application, the mounting plate includes a shelf and hanging ears disposed on both sides of the mounting plate and cooperating with the hooks.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this application, the side of the ear facing the hook is set as an inclined surface.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this application, the connector is provided with a stop block for limiting and securing the mounting plate, and the mounting plate is placed between the hook and the stop block.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this application, the abutment block is disposed on the top inner sidewall of the connector.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this application, a snap-fit ​​spring for securing the light strip is also provided at the connection between the shelf and the hanging ear.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this application, both the inner wall of the hook and the outer surface of the blocking block are provided with flexible pads.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the use of vertical components to provide a stable and reliable support frame for this application provides a solid installation foundation for LEDs, and this application can flexibly adjust the position of the mounting plate in the connector according to the actual spatial layout, the direction of the light strip and the specific needs of the installation environment, easily adapt to different scenarios, reduce specific needs caused by space limitations or installation angle problems, and flexibly adjust the position of the connector in the mounting plate.

[0019] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-3 As shown, traditional LED strip installation structures do not fully consider the flexibility requirements of installation angle and position during design and have the problem of installation dead angles. Therefore, when the strip is installed at a 45° angle, the light will be projected onto the target area at a specific angle. Compared with vertical or horizontal installation, using a 45° angle can reduce lighting dead angles and improve heat dissipation performance. However, the existing 45° angle installation fixing method is relatively complicated, which greatly restricts the disassembly and installation of the strip and increases the difficulty of maintenance and replacement. To address this, the applicant has developed an LED strip fixing structure. Its implementation principle is that a vertical connector 1 and a mounting plate 3 for fixing the strip are movably set within the connector 1. The mounting plate 3 is limited and secured by the hooks 11 at both ends of the connector 1. This structure achieves a stable installation of the LED strip. In specific installation, a set of connectors 1 can also be used to limit and fix the mounting plate 3. This structure is suitable for use in long circuit layouts. The hook 11 is perpendicular to the end face of the connector 1 and forms a sealed quadrilateral, enhancing the overall stability and sealing of the structure. This effectively prevents the LED strip from loosening or shifting due to external forces, ensuring the normal operation and lifespan of the LED strip. The technical solution includes: a vertically oriented connector 1, with a mounting plate 3 movably disposed within the connector 1 for fixing the LED strip; hooks 11 at both ends of the connector 1 for limiting and securing the mounting plate 3; and the hooks 11 are perpendicular to the end face of the connector 1 to which they are connected. The vertical extension surface of the hook 11 forms a sealed quadrilateral with the connector 1. The connector 1 can be made of aluminum alloy profile, such as 6063-T5 aluminum alloy, which has good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The hook 11 can be made of plastic or metal, such as PA66 (polyamide 66) plastic, which has high strength and wear resistance. The mounting plate 3 is made of flexible material, which can be bent at will according to the construction site and provide a certain degree of protection for the light strip. In actual operation, several heat dissipation holes can be opened on the mounting plate 3.

[0021] The mounting plate 3 includes a shelf 31 and hanging ears 32 disposed on both sides of the mounting plate 3 and cooperating with the hooks 11. The design of the hanging ears 32 makes the fit between the mounting plate 3 and the hooks 11 tighter, further enhancing the stability of the mounting plate 3 and preventing it from shaking in the connector 1. The cooperation structure between the hanging ears 32 and the hooks 11 is simple, which facilitates the quick installation and disassembly of the mounting plate 3 and improves the installation efficiency.

[0022] The side of the hanging ear 32 facing the hook 11 is set as an inclined surface. The inclined surface can play a guiding role, making it easier for the mounting plate 3 to enter the limiting area of ​​the hook 11 during installation, reducing the installation difficulty. The contact area between the inclined surface and the hook 11 is larger, which can better distribute the force and further improve the stability of the mounting plate 3 in the connector 1. The inclination angle of the inclined surface is 30°~45° to achieve the best guiding and stability effect.

[0023] The connector 1 is provided with a stop block 2 for limiting and securing the mounting plate 3. The mounting plate 3 is placed between the hook 11 and the stop block 2. The stop block 2 and the hook 11 together limit the mounting plate 3, forming a double limiting structure, which further improves the fixing reliability of the mounting plate 3 and prevents it from shifting within the connector 1. By adjusting the position of the stop block 2, the installation position of the mounting plate 3 can be precisely controlled to ensure the installation accuracy of the light strip. In actual operation, in order to ensure the relative stability between the connector 1 and the mounting plate 3 and avoid left and right movement, an anti-slip pad can be provided on the top surface of the mounting plate 3.

[0024] The abutment block 2 is located on the top inner side wall of the connector 1. The reason for this arrangement is that placing the abutment block 2 on the top inner side wall can make full use of the internal space of the connector 1, avoid interference with the installation and use of the light strip, and at the same time maintain the overall compact structure of the connector 1. The abutment block 2 on the top inner side wall can better bear the weight and external force of the mounting plate 3, making the force distribution more uniform and further improving the stability of the structure.

[0025] At the connection between the shelf 31 and the hanging ear 32, a snap-fit ​​spring 4 for clamping the light strip is provided to prevent the light strip from sliding or loosening on the mounting plate 3, ensuring the stable fixation of the light strip. The snap-fit ​​spring 4 has a certain degree of elasticity, which can adapt to light strips of different thicknesses, improving the versatility and adaptability of the fixing structure. The snap-fit ​​spring 4 can be made of stainless steel, such as 304 stainless steel, which has good elasticity and corrosion resistance.

[0026] Both the inner wall of the hook 11 and the outer surface of the stop block 2 are provided with flexible pads 5. The flexible pads 5 can play a buffering role, reducing the hard collision between the mounting plate 3 and the hook 11 and the stop block 2, protecting the mounting plate 3 and the light strip from damage. The flexible pads 5 have a static friction coefficient, which can increase the friction between the mounting plate 3 and the hook 11 and the stop block 2, further improving the stability of the mounting plate 3 and preventing it from sliding during use. The flexible pads 5 can be made of rubber or silicone, such as natural rubber or food-grade silicone, both of which have good flexibility and wear resistance. The flexible pads 5 can be fixed to the inner wall of the hook 11 and the outer surface of the stop block 2 by adhesive or snap-fit.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
