Description
Technical Field

The utility model has a tempered glass outer sleeve with a silicone ring, and a silicone ring is set between the lamp holder and the back cover. Compared with the prior art, the structure design is reasonable, the sealing and waterproof performance is strong, the light output effect is good, and it can rotate in both horizontal and vertical directions at the same time to achieve rotational illumination at various angles, which has a large expansion space in the application.
[0004] However, existing LED ground lights mostly rely on traditional solutions such as single-layer sealing rings or silicone adhesive filling for waterproofing, which have significant defects in waterproofing performance. During long-term outdoor use, these simple sealing methods are easily affected by multiple factors such as ultraviolet rays, temperature differences, and mechanical vibration, causing the sealing rings to age, harden, or deform rapidly. Once the sealing structure fails, rainwater, dew, and ground seepage water can easily seep into the lamp body, causing LED light source short circuits, driver power supply corrosion, and other malfunctions. In severe cases, it can even cause the lamp to be scrapped, making it difficult to meet the modern landscape lighting requirements for lamp durability and economy. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a waterproof sealing device for LED floor lamps, including a lamp body shell 1. The lamp body shell 1 is integrally formed from high-strength die-cast aluminum alloy and has a cylindrical structure with one end closed and the other end open. The inner wall of the lamp body shell 1 is anodized to enhance corrosion resistance. A front cover 2 is adapted to be installed at the opening of the lamp body shell 1. The front cover 2 has an annular snap-fit groove 3 inside.
[0026] The inner diameter of the snap-fit groove 3 is precisely matched with the outer diameter of the lamp body shell 1. The snap-fit groove 3 is inlaid with an annular sealing ring 4. The annular sealing ring 4 is made of weather-resistant EPDM rubber and is fixed by interference fit. A conical sealing ring 5 is set on the inner wall of the lamp body shell 1 near the opening end, with the large end of the conical sealing ring 5 facing the opening direction.
[0027] The annular sealing ring 4 is embedded into the annular snap-fit groove 3 of the front cover 2. Since the annular sealing ring 4 is fixed by an interference fit, it can fit tightly with the snap-fit groove 3. The front cover 2 is aligned with the opening of the lamp housing 1, so that the outer diameter of the lamp housing 1 is precisely matched with the annular snap-fit groove 3. At this time, the annular sealing ring 4 is squeezed between the two, forming the first waterproof barrier. At the same time, the large end of the conical sealing ring 5 near the opening end of the inner wall of the lamp housing 1 contacts the inner side of the front cover 2, providing initial pressure for sealing. As the pressure ring 8 is continuously tightened, it applies axial pressure to the front cover 2, which further compresses the annular sealing ring 4, causing it to undergo elastic deformation and fill the tiny gap between the lamp housing 1 and the front cover 2. At the same time, the conical sealing ring 5 also undergoes greater elastic deformation due to the compression of the front cover 2. Utilizing the characteristics of the conical structure, a tighter seal is formed at the connection between the lamp housing 1 and the front cover 2. The cooperation of the double sealing rings significantly improves the waterproof performance, enabling the device to achieve a waterproof rating of IP68.
[0028] The lamp housing 1 has an integrally formed grounding bracket 6 on its outer side. The front cover 2 has a light-transmitting panel 7 embedded in the middle. The light-transmitting panel 7 is made of high-transmittance tempered glass with a nano-coating treatment on its surface. The front cover 2 has a metal pressure ring 8 inside the snap-fit groove 3. The outer surface of the pressure ring 8 is machined with a standard external thread 9. The inner wall of the lamp housing 1 has an internal thread 10 that matches the external thread 9. The lamp housing 1 has a substrate 11 inside. LED beads 12 are regularly arranged on the substrate 11. The space between the substrate 11 and the lamp housing 1 is filled with a thermally conductive silicone pad 13. The bottom of the lamp housing 1 has a drainage hole 14. The drainage hole 14 has a waterproof and breathable membrane 15 inside. The waterproof and breathable membrane 15 is made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene. The outer surface of the lamp housing 1 is connected to a grounding terminal 16 through a standard M6 threaded interface. The grounding terminal 16 is made of copper and tin-plated.
[0029] When installing the waterproof sealing device for this LED ground light, the substrate 11 is first fixed inside the lamp housing 1 with countersunk screws. The LED beads 12 arranged regularly on the substrate 11 are electrically connected to the driving circuit (not shown in the figure). At the same time, a thermally conductive silicone pad 13 is evenly filled between the substrate 11 and the lamp housing 1 to ensure that the heat generated by the LED beads 12 can be quickly conducted to the lamp housing 1 for heat dissipation. The metal pressure ring 8 is screwed into the internal thread 10 on the inner wall of the lamp housing 1. The standard external thread 9 on the outer surface of the metal pressure ring 8 is tightly engaged with the internal thread 10. When the device is installed on the outdoor ground, the lamp is firmly inserted into the ground through the ground socket 6 integrally formed on the outer side of the lamp housing 1, using its bottom tooth structure. The light-transmitting panel 7 embedded in the middle of the front cover 2 is made of high light transmittance tempered glass with a nano-coating treatment on the surface, which ensures efficient light transmission while being scratch-resistant. The wear-resistant and UV-resistant properties protect the internal LED beads 12. During operation, the heat generated by the LED beads 12 is quickly transferred to the lamp housing 1 through the thermally conductive silicone pad 13. The lamp housing 1, made of high-strength die-cast aluminum alloy, has good heat dissipation performance, dissipating heat to the surrounding environment. The waterproof and breathable membrane 15 inside the drainage hole 14 at the bottom of the lamp housing 1 is made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene material. Its small pores allow air to flow freely, balancing the air pressure inside the lamp housing and the outside, preventing condensation due to temperature changes, and effectively blocking liquid water from entering. In addition, the grounding terminal 16, made of copper and tin-plated, is connected to the outer surface of the lamp housing 1 through a standard M6 threaded interface, reliably grounding the lamp. When the lamp experiences leakage or other abnormalities, the current can be conducted to the ground through the grounding terminal 16, ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment.
[0030] Working principle: When installing the waterproof sealing device for this LED floor socket light, the substrate 11 is first fixed inside the lamp housing 1 with countersunk screws. The LED beads 12 arranged regularly on the substrate 11 are electrically connected to the driving circuit (not shown in the figure). At the same time, a thermally conductive silicone pad 13 is evenly filled between the substrate 11 and the lamp housing 1 to ensure that the heat generated by the LED beads 12 can be quickly conducted to the lamp housing 1 for heat dissipation. Then, the sealing assembly is performed by embedding the annular sealing ring 4 into the annular snap-fit groove 3 of the front cover 2. Since the annular sealing ring 4 is fixed by an interference fit, it can fit tightly with the snap-fit groove 3. The front cover 2 is aligned with the opening of the lamp housing 1, so that the outer diameter of the lamp housing 1 is aligned with the annular groove 3. The shaped locking groove 3 is precisely matched, and the annular sealing ring 4 is squeezed between the two, forming the first waterproof barrier. At the same time, the large end of the conical sealing ring 5 near the opening end of the inner wall of the lamp body shell 1 contacts the inner side of the front cover 2, providing initial pressure for sealing. Subsequently, the metal pressure ring 8 is screwed into the internal thread 10 of the inner wall of the lamp body shell 1. The standard external thread 9 on the outer surface of the metal pressure ring 8 tightly meshes with the internal thread 10. As the pressure ring 8 is continuously tightened, it applies axial pressure to the front cover 2, causing the annular sealing ring 4 to be further squeezed, causing it to undergo elastic deformation and fill the tiny gap between the lamp body shell 1 and the front cover 2. At the same time, the conical sealing ring 5 also undergoes a greater degree of elastic deformation due to the compression of the front cover 2. Utilizing the characteristics of the conical structure, a tighter seal is formed at the connection between the lamp housing 1 and the front cover 2. The combination of double sealing rings significantly improves waterproof performance, enabling the device to achieve a waterproof rating of IP68. When the device is installed on the outdoor ground, the lamp is securely inserted into the ground through the integrated ground insert 6 on the outer side of the lamp housing 1, utilizing its bottom toothed structure. The light-transmitting panel 7 embedded in the center of the front cover 2 is made of high-transmittance tempered glass with a nano-coating treatment on the surface. While ensuring efficient light transmission, it also has scratch-resistant, wear-resistant, and UV-resistant properties, protecting the internal LED beads 12. During the operation of the device, the heat generated by the LED beads 12 is quickly transferred to the heat-conducting silicone pad 13. The lamp housing 1, made of high-strength die-cast aluminum alloy, has excellent heat dissipation performance, dissipating heat to the surrounding environment. The waterproof and breathable membrane 15 inside the drainage hole 14 at the bottom of the lamp housing 1 is made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene material. Its tiny pores allow air to flow freely, balancing the air pressure inside the lamp housing and the outside, preventing condensation due to temperature changes, and effectively blocking liquid water from entering. In addition, the grounding terminal 16, made of copper and tin-plated, is connected to the outer surface of the lamp housing 1 through a standard M6 threaded interface, reliably grounding the lamp. When the lamp experiences leakage or other abnormalities, the current can be conducted to the ground through the grounding terminal 16, ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment.
