Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of lighting fixtures, specifically to an LED follow spot. Background Technology

[0002] A follow spot is a high-powered spotlight consisting of a convex lens and a light source. It is primarily used to highlight actors or create special effects when the stage is completely dark, or to provide supplemental lighting for actors.

[0003] Follow spot lights typically have a control panel or controller on their side for controlling parameters such as the intensity of the follow spot light. In the prior art, the control panel is usually fixedly installed on the side of the follow spot light. For example, CN201911247681.0 discloses a mobile follow spot light rapid tracking system for stage use, which includes a base, control panel, bracket, column one and column two. The base has brackets at the center of the front and rear end faces, and the control panel is located at the right end of the front panel of the base.

[0004] The aforementioned follow spot system has its control panel fixedly located on the right side of the base. In actual use, the operator needs to move to different positions to observe the lighting effects and return to the follow spot to adjust it through the control panel. During a performance, the operator may need to repeat the above actions many times, which is inconvenient for the use of the follow spot and increases the operator's workload. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this application aims to provide an LED follow spot. This application features a detachable, separate controller, allowing the controller to be removed from the main body and moved by hand, thus facilitating the use of the follow spot and reducing the workload of the operator.

[0006] The LED follow spot described in this application includes a lamp holder, a lamp body mounted on the lamp holder, and a controller signal-connected to the lamp body. The lamp body includes a housing and a lamp assembly disposed within the housing. The LED follow spot further includes:

[0007] Mounting member, the mounting member being connected to the housing, and at least a portion of the mounting member extending to the outer side of one side of the housing;

[0008] A connector is provided, which is detachably connected to the portion of the mounting component located on the outer side of the housing via a disassembly and assembly mechanism. The connector is also connected to the controller for mounting the controller onto the mounting component.

[0009] Preferably, the mounting component is a U-shaped tube, comprising two relatively parallel straight tube sections and a horizontal tube section connecting the two straight tube sections. The two straight tube sections are respectively disposed outside the two sides of the lamp body and connected to the two sides of the lamp body, with a gap between the straight tube sections and the outer side of the lamp body.

[0010] Preferably, the connector includes a first part and a second part that are symmetrically arranged. The first part and the second part are each provided with an arc-shaped groove adapted to the straight pipe section on their opposite sides. After the first part and the second part are connected, the two arc-shaped grooves are spliced ​​together to form a pipe groove adapted to the straight pipe section. The first part and the second part are located on the upper and lower sides of the straight pipe section respectively and can be detachably connected by the disassembly and assembly mechanism.

[0011] Preferably, the disassembly and assembly mechanism includes a connecting bolt and a handle. The first part and the second part have bolt holes adapted to the connecting bolt at corresponding positions. The connecting bolt passes through the bolt holes of the first part and the second part to connect the first part and the second part. The handle is connected to the end of the connecting bolt that is exposed above the connector.

[0012] Preferably, the disassembly and assembly mechanism includes a matching male buckle and a female buckle. The male buckle is located on the side of the first part close to the second part, and the female buckle is located on the second part at a position corresponding to the male buckle. The first part and the second part are connected by the male buckle and the female buckle.

[0013] Preferably, both the first and second parts are made of plastic. The first part has a first magnetic component on the side near the second part, and the second part has a second magnetic component at a position corresponding to the first magnetic component. When the first and second magnetic components are attracted to each other, the first and second parts are aligned.

[0014] Preferably, the inner wall of the pipe groove is provided with a limiting groove, and the straight pipe portion protrudes at a position corresponding to the limiting groove to form a limiting part adapted to the limiting groove. When the pipe groove is sleeved on the outside of the straight pipe portion, the limiting part is embedded in the limiting groove to limit the relative rotation of the connector and the mounting component.

[0015] Preferably, the controller is connected to the connector via a universal joint.

[0016] Preferably, the controller has a palm rest on its back.

[0017] Preferably, the controller is connected to the lamp body via Bluetooth or infrared.

[0018] The LED follow spot described in this application has the advantage that, by providing a mounting bracket and a connector, the controller can be detachably mounted on the lamp body via the mounting bracket and connector. During normal use, the controller can be mounted on the mounting bracket and used to control the follow spot. When the operator needs to move to another location to observe and adjust the light, the controller and connector can be removed from the mounting bracket, detaching the controller from the lamp body. The operator can then hold the controller and move it to the observation position to control the follow spot. This improves the flexibility of follow spot control, makes it easier for the operator to use, and effectively reduces the operator's workload. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0025] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the LED follow spot described in this application includes a lamp holder 1, a lamp body 2 mounted on the lamp holder 1, and a controller 3 that is signal-connected to the lamp body 2.

[0026] Specifically, the lamp holder 1 is a triangular frame with a triangular support structure at the bottom and is connected to the lamp body 2 at the top.

[0027] The lamp body 2 includes a long cylindrical housing 21. The interior of the housing 21 is hollow and used to house the lamp assembly and other conventional circuit components. The lamp assembly is located at the front end of the housing 21 to emit light outward.

[0028] The controller 3 is connected to the lamp body 2 via signal. Specifically, the controller 3 can use common control components such as PLC. The circuit structure of the controller 3 and its circuit connection structure with the lamp assembly adopt the circuit structure related to the follow spot lamp control panel / controller 3 in the existing technology.

[0029] The controller 3 has a square housing, with the circuit structure and other components housed inside. The control buttons are located on the surface of the housing. In this embodiment, the circuit structure of the controller 3 and its connection to the follow spot are not modified. In feasible embodiments, the controller 3 and the lamp body 2 can be connected via an extended connecting cable to allow the controller 3 to be located a certain distance away from the lamp body 2. In other optional embodiments, the controller 3 can also be connected to the lamp body 2 via a wireless communication module.

[0030] Follow spotlights also include:

[0031] Mounting member 4 is disposed on the outside of housing 21 and connected to housing 21. At least a portion of mounting member 4 extends beyond one side of housing 21 to facilitate the placement of controller 3 on the side of housing 21.

[0032] The connector 5 is detachably connected to the part of the mounting part 4 located on the outer side of the housing 21 via a disassembly and assembly mechanism. The connector 5 is also connected to the controller 3, thereby allowing the controller 3 to be detachably mounted on the mounting part 4, thus achieving a detachable connection between the controller 3 and the lamp body 2.

[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, please refer to the detailed description. Figure 4 The mounting component 4 has a U-shaped tube structure. The mounting component 4 includes two relatively parallel straight tube sections 41. The straight tube section 41 has a circular or square cross-section and is arranged on the left and right sides of the lamp body 2 parallel to the axis of the lamp body 2. The horizontal tube section 42 is arranged on the outer side of the rear end face of the lamp body 2, and its two ends are respectively connected to the two straight tube sections 41 to form a U-shaped mounting component 4 structure.

[0034] Two straight tube sections 41 are respectively provided on the two sides of the lamp body 2 and connected to the two sides of the lamp body 2, with a gap between the straight tube section 41 and the sides of the lamp body 2. For details, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 2 The lamp body 2 has a connecting seat on its side. The connecting seat has a through hole in the middle that is adapted to the straight tube 41. The straight tube 41 is inserted into the through hole of the connecting seat to connect the straight tube 41 to the lamp body 2. A gap is left between the straight tube 41 and the lamp body 2 to facilitate the installation of components such as the connector 5.

[0035] Furthermore, in this embodiment, please refer to the detailed description. Figure 5The connector 5 includes a symmetrical first part 51 and a second part 52. Specifically, the connector 5 is divided into upper and lower parts along its central axis, namely the first part 51 and the second part 52. Each of the opposing surfaces of the first part 51 and the second part 52 has an arc-shaped groove adapted to the straight pipe section 41. Specifically, corresponding to the circular straight pipe section 41, the arc-shaped groove is a semi-circular groove with a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the straight pipe section 41. After the first part 51 and the second part 52 are connected, the two arc-shaped grooves are joined to form a pipe groove 53 adapted to the straight pipe section 41. That is, the two semi-circular arc-shaped grooves are joined to form a circular groove adapted to the straight pipe section 41, which is used to fit over the outside of the straight pipe section 41.

[0036] The disassembly and assembly mechanism has at least two different implementation methods.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] Please refer to the detailed information. Figure 2 The disassembly and assembly mechanism includes a connecting bolt 6 and a handle 7. The first part 51 and the second part 52 have bolt holes adapted to the connecting bolt 6 at corresponding positions. When the connecting bolt 6 passes through the bolt holes of the first part 51 and the second part 52, the first part 51 and the second part 52 are connected. Specifically, when connecting the connector 5 to the mounting part 4, the first part 51 and the second part 52 are first separated. The first part 51 is positioned on one side of the straight tube part 41, with the arc-shaped groove fitting against the straight tube part 41. Then, the second part 52 is positioned on the other side of the straight tube part 41, with the arc-shaped groove fitting against the straight tube part 41. At this point, the connecting bolt 6 is inserted into the bolt holes of the first part 51 and the second part 52, connecting the first part 51 and the second part 52, thus connecting and locking the connector 5 to the mounting part 4. The connector 5 and the disassembly and assembly mechanism of this embodiment have the advantages of simple structure and easy disassembly and assembly.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] The assembly / disassembly mechanism includes a matching male snap-fit ​​(not shown in the figure) and a female snap-fit ​​(not shown in the figure). The male snap-fit ​​is located on the side of the first part 51 near the second part 52, and the female snap-fit ​​is located on the second part 52 at a position corresponding to the male snap-fit. The first part 51 and the second part 52 are connected by the male snap-fit ​​and the female snap-fit. The male-female snap-fit ​​method has the advantages of quick assembly / disassembly and stable connection.

[0041] Both of the above-mentioned different implementation methods of the disassembly and assembly mechanism can achieve a detachable connection between the connector 5 and the mounting component 4, and can be selected and configured according to actual needs.

[0042] Furthermore, in this embodiment, both the first split 51 and the second split 52 are made of plastic. The first split 51 has a first magnetic attractor on the side closest to the second split 52, and the second split 52 has a second magnetic attractor at the position corresponding to the first magnetic attractor. The first magnetic attractor and the second magnetic attractor can be two magnets with opposite magnetic poles. When the first split 51 and the second split 52 are close together, the first magnetic attractor and the second magnetic attractor generate a magnetic force that attracts each other. When they are close to a certain distance, the first magnetic attractor and the second magnetic attractor attract each other. At this time, since the positions of the first magnetic attractor and the second magnetic attractor are corresponding to each other, the first split 51 and the second split 52 are aligned. This makes it easy to quickly align the two splits of the connector 5 when installing the connector 5, and the generated magnetic force will enable the first split 51 and the second split 52 to be initially connected. At this time, the operator does not need to hold the position of the two splits with his hands, and can screw the connecting bolt 6 into the bolt hole with both hands, which is more convenient for the operator.

[0043] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the tube groove 53 is provided with a limiting groove (not shown in the figure), and the straight tube part 41 protrudes at the position corresponding to the limiting groove to form a matching limiting part (not shown in the figure). The limiting groove is an elongated groove, and the limiting part is a corresponding elongated protrusion. When the tube groove 53 is sleeved on the outside of the straight tube part 41, the limiting part is embedded in the limiting groove. The limiting part and the limiting groove are mainly used to limit the relative rotation of the connector 5 and the mounting part 4 in the circumferential direction, so that the connection between the connector 5 and the mounting part 4 is more stable. In addition, when the operator needs to move the controller 3 along the length direction of the straight tube part 41, it can also play a guiding sliding role.

[0044] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the controller 3 is connected to the connector 5 via a universal joint 8. One end of the universal joint 8 is inserted into the interior of the connector 5, and the other end is connected to the back of the controller 3, so that the relative angle between the controller 3 and the connector 5 is adjustable, thereby adjusting the orientation of the controller 3 and making it easier for operators to use.

[0045] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the back of the controller 3 is provided with a palm rest (not shown in the figure). The palm rest is specifically a ring structure adapted to the palm of the hand. It is located on the back of the controller 3 and on one side of the connector 5. When the operator removes the controller 3 from the lamp body 2 for use, the palm can be placed into the palm rest to make it easier to hold the controller 3.

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the controller 3 is connected to the lamp body 2 via Bluetooth or infrared. Specifically, the control circuit inside the lamp body 2 is wirelessly connected to the controller 3 via Bluetooth or infrared. For example, by setting an infrared transmitting module in the controller 3 and an infrared receiving module in the control circuit of the lamp body 2, the controller 3 can emit infrared signals that are received by the control circuit of the lamp body 2. This allows the controller 3 to remotely and wirelessly control the lamp body 2 via Bluetooth or infrared, making it easier for operators to operate the controller 3 by hand.

[0047] This application incorporates a mounting bracket 4 and a connector 5. The controller 3 is detachably mounted on the lamp body 2 via the mounting bracket 4 and connector 5. During normal use, the controller 3 can be mounted on the mounting bracket 4 to control the follow spot. When the operator needs to move to another location to observe and control the light, the controller 3 and connector 5 are removed from the mounting bracket 4, detaching the controller 3 from the lamp body 2. The operator can then move the controller 3 by hand and control the follow spot after reaching the observation position. This improves the flexibility of follow spot control, makes it easier for the operator to use, and effectively reduces the operator's workload.
