Description
A foldable, quick-assembly and disassembly conductive lamp holder structure and plant lamp Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of plant lighting technology, and more specifically, relates to a foldable, quick-assembly and disassembly light frame structure and a plant light. Background Technology
[0002] Most commercially available plant lights are designed as single, non-foldable panels, making storage inconvenient. To address this, detachable plant lights have been designed. However, currently available quick-assembly plant lights typically fall into two categories: First, those using interlocking plastic parts for assembly and disassembly, such as two plastic parts, increase material, mold, and assembly costs due to the need for additional plastic parts, resulting in higher overall costs. Furthermore, the finished light fixture is not very strong and is prone to twisting. Second, because plant lights often have multiple light strips, after installation, both ends of the strips require manual screwing and other structural components for fixation, impacting user experience and installation costs. Both of these assembly / disassembly solutions are cumbersome to install, involve complex wiring, and result in relatively weak fixtures after installation, causing inconvenience for subsequent installations and increasing labor costs. In conclusion, developing a plant light that is easy to store and allows for convenient assembly, disassembly, and connection of the light strips has become a pressing issue for the industry. Summary of the Invention

Then, the two ends of the removed light strip are quickly installed and fixed to the corresponding quick-release and electrically conductive components on the two opposite lamp holders, achieving electrical conductivity. When the plant light needs to be stored, the light strip can be directly removed from the quick-release and electrically conductive component.

[0047] This application provides a foldable, quick-assembly, and easily detachable lamp holder structure.
[0048] Referring to Figures 1 to 13, in one embodiment, the foldable, quick-release, and conductive lamp holder structure is used for plant lights, which include multiple elongated light strips 100. Specifically, this foldable, quick-release, and conductive lamp holder structure includes a main lamp holder 200, a support lamp holder 300, a rotating assembly 400, and a quick-release and conductive assembly 500. The main lamp holder 200 is elongated, with its length direction defined as the front-to-back direction and its width direction as the left-to-right direction. The support lamp holders 300 are also elongated, with multiple support lamp holders 300 located at the front and rear ends of the main lamp holder 200. The rotating assembly 400 is located at both ends of the main lamp holder 200, and one end of each support lamp holder 300 along its length is rotatably connected to the main lamp holder 200 via the rotating assembly 400. The support lamp holder 300 can rotate from being parallel to the main lamp holder 200 to being perpendicular to it. The quick-release conductive assembly 500 is mounted on the lamp holder 300. The two ends of the lamp strip 100 are detachably connected and electrically connected to the two opposite lamp holders 300 through the quick-release conductive assembly 500.
[0049] Based on this design, in this embodiment, since a rotating component 400 and a quick-release conductive component 500 are provided, during the installation of the plant light, firstly, the lamp holder 300 can be rotated from being parallel to the main lamp holder 200 to being perpendicular to the main lamp holder 200. Then, the two ends of the removed light strip 100 are quickly installed and fixed to the quick-release conductive components 500 on the two opposite lamp holders 300 to achieve electrical conduction. When the plant light needs to be stored, the light strip 100 can be removed directly from the quick-release conductive component 500. Then, the lamp holder 300 is rotated relative to the main lamp holder 200 to be parallel to it and attached to the side of the main lamp holder 200. In this way, the lamp holder 300 and the main lamp holder 200 can be folded for storage, thereby reducing space occupation and facilitating storage. As can be seen from the above disassembly and assembly process, compared with the existing plant lights that require plastic parts for disassembly and assembly and require hand-tightening screws for fixing, the light strip 100 of this application is quick and convenient to disassemble and assemble, and is also very convenient to fold and store.
[0050] Please refer to Figures 2 to 4. Specifically, in this embodiment, the rotating assembly 400 includes a damping shaft 410, a first connector 420, and a second connector 430. The first connector 420 is fixedly connected to the end of the main lamp holder 200 along its length, and the second connector 430 is fixedly connected to the end of the lamp holder 300 along its length and facing the main lamp holder 200. The damping shaft 410 includes a shaft core 411 and a fixed frame 412 and a movable frame 413 sleeved on the shaft core 411. The fixed frame 412 is fixedly connected to the first connector 420, and the movable frame 413 is fixedly connected to the second connector 430. Here, the first connector 420 is integrated with the end of the main lamp holder 200. With the axial direction as the up and down direction, both the first connector 420 and the second connector 430 are cylindrically arranged vertically and vertically, and they cooperate to allow the damping shaft 410 to be built into them. The upper end of the first connector 420 is provided with an upper cover plate 441 to cover the upper opening, and the lower end of the second connector 430 is provided with a lower cover plate 442 to cover the lower opening.
[0051] Furthermore, the damping shaft 410 also includes a bushing 419, a limiting washer 414, a first tight-fitting plate 415, a round-hole spring washer 416, a second tight-fitting plate 417, and a nut 418. The nut 418 is screwed onto the tail end of the shaft core 411. Along the axial direction of the shaft core 411 and towards the nut 418, the fixed frame 412, bushing 419, limiting washer 414, movable frame 413, first tight-fitting plate 415, round-hole spring washer 416, and second tight-fitting plate 417 are sequentially fitted onto the shaft core 411. Here, the tight-fitting plate can fix the position of the damping shaft 410 to ensure transmission accuracy; the spring washer has the functions of preventing loosening and absorbing vibration; the limiting washer 414 can limit the rotation angle of the shaft, so that after the lamp holder 300 is opened, it can only rotate to a position perpendicular to the main lamp holder 200. In addition, both the movable frame 413 and the fasteners have large notches, and the two large notches are aligned when the item is in the shipping state.
[0052] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. In this embodiment, a rotating assembly 400 is provided on both the left and right sides of the front and rear ends of the main lamp holder 200, and each rotating assembly 400 is connected to a lamp support 300. Two opposing lamp supports 300 are connected to the left side of the main lamp holder 200, and two opposing lamp supports 300 are also connected to the right side of the main lamp holder 200. The foldable, quick-release, and conductive lamp holder structure has a storage state and a use state: in the storage state, the light strip 100 is removed, and the lamp supports 300 are rotated inward relative to the main lamp holder 200 until they are parallel to the main lamp holder 200; in the use state, the lamp supports 300 are rotated outward relative to the main lamp holder 200 until they are perpendicular to the main lamp holder 200, and the two ends of the light strip 100 are connected to the two opposing lamp supports 300 through quick-release and conductive assemblies 500 and are electrically connected. Specifically, in this embodiment, the plant lamp includes a main lamp frame 200, four lamp support frames 300, and six light strips 100, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the main lamp frame 200. Of course, in other embodiments, the number and positional distribution of the lamp support frames 300 and light strips 100 can be designed according to actual conditions. However, in this embodiment, this symmetrical structural design not only helps maintain the balance of the lamp but also makes the light from the plant lamp more uniform. Furthermore, to facilitate the folding and storage of the lamp support frames 300, all lamp support frames 300 are of equal length, and the length of each lamp support frame 300 is less than half the length of the main lamp frame 200.
[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there are multiple quick-release conductive components 500. Similarly, the number of quick-release conductive components 500 on the two opposite lamp holders 300 located on the left or right side of the main lamp holder 200 is equal, and their positions correspond one-to-one. After the light strip 100 is installed on the lamp holder 300, the light strip 100 is parallel to the main lamp holder 200. This design, where the light strip 100 is parallel to the main lamp holder 200 and perpendicular to the lamp holder 300, allows the two opposite lamp holders 300 and the two ends of the light strip 100 to abut against each other, thus making the lamp holder 300 less prone to deformation and the connection between the light strip 100 and the lamp holder 300 more stable.
[0054] Please refer to Figures 5 to 10. In this embodiment, a conductive groove 310 is formed on the lamp holder 300. The quick-release conductive assembly 500 includes a flip-top structure 510 and a quick-connect structure. The quick-connect structure includes a connecting wire 526, a male PIN pin 521, and a female PIN pin 522. The female PIN pin 522 protrudes from the conductive groove 310, and the male PIN pin 521 is located at one end of the lamp strip 100 along its length. The connecting wire 526 is housed in the inner cavity of the lamp holder 300 and is electrically connected to the female PIN pin 522. The flip-top structure 510 is rotatably connected to the upper side wall of the conductive groove 310. The flip-top structure 510 can be flipped open to expose the female PIN pin 522. The lamp strip 100 achieves circuit conduction by inserting the male PIN pin 521 into the female PIN pin 522. Specifically, the PIN female pin 522 has a conductive pin hole 523 for the insertion of the PIN male pin 521; the end of the LED strip 100 has a male pin groove 110 for the insertion of the PIN female pin 522. One end of the PIN male pin 521 protrudes from the bottom of the male pin groove 110. Thus, when installing the LED strip 100, simply align the male pin groove 110 at the end of the LED strip 100 with the injection-molded PIN female pin 522 to accurately insert the PIN male pin 521 into the PIN female pin 522 without special alignment. Similarly, when the LED strip 100 needs to be removed, the PIN male pin 521 needs to be pulled out of the PIN female pin 522. Therefore, this customized quick-connect structure achieves conductivity through the PIN pin crown spring structure formed by the cooperation of the PIN male pin 521 and the PIN female pin 522, and effectively ensures the stability of the conductivity.
[0055] Further, as shown in Figures 6, 7, 9, and 10, in this embodiment, the quick-connect structure also includes a female PCB 524, a connecting wire 526, and a PIN female pin 522. After the wiring is connected, the female PCB 524 and the PIN female pin 522 are injection molded and coated. The injection-molded portion of the PIN female pin 522 is fitted with a shaped waterproof ring 525. Specifically, the female PCB 524 and the connecting wire 526 are built into the inner cavity of the lamp holder 300. The connecting wire 526 consists of three wires: red, green, and black, which are connected to interfaces 1, 2, and 3 on the female PCB 524, respectively. The injection-molded PIN female pin 522 extends out from the conductive groove 310. Here, the shaped waterproof ring 525, in addition to its function of elastically abutting against the inner wall of the male pin groove 110 to ensure waterproof performance, also enhances the installation stability of the light strip 100.
[0056] Please refer to Figures 5 to 9. Specifically, in this embodiment, the flip cover structure 510 includes a flip cover top cover 511, a flip cover fixing member 512, and a flip cover slider 513. The cover includes a snap fastener 514 and an elastic element 515; a flip cover slider 513 is built into the flip cover upper cover 511; a flip cover fastener 512 is located above the flip cover upper cover 511 and is connected to the flip cover slider 513; one end of the elastic element 515 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the flip cover upper cover 511, and the other end of the elastic element 515 is fixedly connected to the flip cover slider 513; when the flip cover fastener 512 is moved, it drives the flip cover slider 513 to slide and compresses the elastic element 515; a flip cover buckle hole 311 is provided on each of the two opposite side walls of the guide groove 310; one end of the snap fastener 514 is connected to the flip cover slider 513, and the other end of the snap fastener 514 can extend out of the flip cover upper cover 511 with the sliding of the flip cover slider 513 and snap into the flip cover buckle hole 311, or retract and disengage from the flip cover buckle hole 311. The flip cover fixing member 512 can be moved from a first position to a second position. When the flip cover fixing member 512 is in the first position, the flip cover upper cover 511 is connected to the side wall of the guide groove 310. When the flip cover fixing member 512 is moved to the second position, the flip cover upper cover 511 is disengaged from the side wall of the guide groove 310, and the flip cover structure 510 can be flipped upward to expose the PIN female pin 522. After the lamp strip 100 is connected to the lamp holder 300, the flip cover structure 510 is flipped downward to connect with the side wall of the guide groove 310. It should be noted that, in order to better show the internal structure of the flip cover assembly and clearly show the moving process, in Figures 6 and 7, the original lower cover plate that engages with the bottom of the flip cover upper cover 511 has been removed from the flip cover assembly. Specifically, in this embodiment, the elastic member 515 is specifically a spring. Of course, in other embodiments, it can also be other suitable elastic structures. In actual use, after the lamp holder 300 is rotated to be perpendicular to the main lamp holder 200, the flip cover fixing member 512 can be moved from the first position to the second position in the direction of the arrow. During the movement, the flip cover fixing member 512 drives the flip cover slider 513 to slide, the spring is compressed, and one end of the latch fixing member 514 moves along the slide on the flip cover slider 513. The other end of the latch fixing member 514 retracts inward and disengages from the flip cover buckle hole 311. In this way, the flip cover assembly can be flipped upward and opened. This exposes the female PIN 522. Then, the male PIN 521 at the end of the light strip 100 is connected to the female PIN 522 to achieve electrical connection between them. Then, the flip cover fixing member 512 is moved again to retract the snap fastener 514. At the same time, after the flip cover assembly is flipped down into place, the flip cover fixing member 512 is released. The snap fastener 514 will extend outward under the elastic return force of the spring and snap into the flip cover buckle hole 311, thereby achieving the re-fixing of the flip cover assembly and the light bracket 300.When the light strip 100 needs to be disassembled, the flip cover fixing piece 512 is moved to disengage it from the flip cover buckle hole 311. After the flip cover assembly is flipped up and opened, the end of the light strip 100 can be removed from the keel strip.
[0057] This application also proposes a plant light, which includes multiple light strips 100 and a foldable, quick-release, and electrically conductive lamp holder structure as described above. The light strips 100 are detachably connected to the lamp support 300 of the foldable, quick-release, and electrically conductive lamp holder structure. The specific structure of the foldable, quick-release, and electrically conductive lamp holder structure is as described in the above embodiments. Since this plant light adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it also has all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
[0058] Please refer to Figures 11 to 13. In this embodiment, the light strip 100 includes a light source 120, a heat sink 130, a lens 140, a front cover assembly 151, a rear cover assembly 152, a first waterproof structure, and a second waterproof structure. Here, the light source 120 may be, but is not limited to, an LED, that is, the light strip 100 is an LED bar. The light emitted by the light source 120 shines downward after passing through the lens 140, and the heat emitted is dissipated through the heat sink 130 connected to it. Both the lens 140 and the heat sink 130 are elongated strips. The front cover assembly 151 and the rear cover assembly 152 both include lamp head end caps 153, which seal and electrically connect both ends of the light strip 100 along its length. Since the rear end of the light strip 100 is the input end, the structure of its lamp head end cap 153 is slightly different from that of the lamp head end cap 153 at the front end of the light strip 100. In order to facilitate the fixed installation of the PIN male pin 521, the lamp head end cap 153 at the rear end of the light strip 100 is a two-injection molded part. It also has a PIN pin positioning part for fixing and installing the PIN male pin 521 inside. The PIN pin positioning part is first injection molded, and then the second injection molding is performed to form an integral part.
[0059] A sealing groove 131 is provided at the connection between the heat sink 130 and the lens 140, and the length extension direction of the sealing groove 131 is consistent with that of the heat sink 130. The first waterproof structure is a long strip-shaped sealing strip 160 with an O-ring cross-section. The sealing strip 160 is inserted into the sealing groove 131 and elastically seals against both the heat sink 130 and the lens 140. Here, the sealing strip 160 is preferably made of silicone material, but in other embodiments, the sealing strip 160 can also be made of other suitable elastic materials. The lens 140 can be integrally molded, and lens clips 141 are formed on the left and right sides of its upper end. The length extension direction of the lens clips 141 is consistent with that of the lens 140. The heat sink 130 has corresponding long strip-shaped fasteners inside near the sealing groove 131. After the sealing strip 160 is installed, the lens clips 141 can be inserted into the corresponding fasteners to achieve a detachable connection between the lens 140 and the heat sink 130, which is very convenient. Moreover, by elastically abutting the long strip sealing strip 160 against the lens 140 and the heat sink 130 respectively, the connection between the lens 140 and the heat sink 130 can be completely sealed, making the waterproof structure simple and reliable.
[0060] The second waterproof structure includes a lamp holder waterproof ring 170 and multiple waterproof screws 180. The lamp holder waterproof ring 170 is sandwiched between the ends of the heat sink 130 and lens 140 and the lamp holder end cap 153. The waterproof screws 180 include a screw body 181 and a waterproof sealing ring 182. The screw body 181 passes through the lamp holder end cap 153 and the lamp holder waterproof ring 170 in sequence and is screwed onto the heat sink 130. The waterproof sealing ring 182 is fitted onto the screw body 181 and sandwiched between the screw head of the lamp holder end cap 153 and the screw body 181. The lamp holder waterproof ring 170 is sandwiched between the ends of the heat sink 130 and lens 140 and the lamp holder end cap 153 to achieve waterproofing between them. The lamp holder waterproof ring 170 is preferably made of silicone material, but in other embodiments, the lamp holder waterproof ring 170 can also be made of other suitable elastic materials. Furthermore, the gap at the connection between the lamp holder end cap 153 and the screw body 181 can be sealed by the waterproof sealing ring 182, which helps to improve the waterproof performance at the end of the lamp strip 100. Of course, for convenient electrical connection, the lamp holder waterproof ring 170 is also provided with multiple wire holes for the connecting wire 526 to pass through. At this time, since the lamp holder waterproof ring 170 is made of elastic materials such as silicone, the wire holes also have a certain squeezing and sealing effect on the passing connecting wire 526, thereby ensuring the waterproof sealing at the wire holes.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
