Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of outdoor lighting technology, and in particular to an outdoor lamp. Background Technology
[0002] Outdoor lighting fixtures are widely used in outdoor settings such as courtyards, gardens, streets, and squares, optimizing nighttime safety and aesthetics. In existing technologies, to support sustainable development, most outdoor lighting fixtures are equipped with photovoltaic (PV) panels that convert light energy into electricity. However, through market research and technical analysis, the inventors discovered that the PV panels in existing outdoor lighting fixtures are exposed, leading to the following problems: 1. PV panels are highly susceptible to damage and even malfunction due to severe weather (such as hail and strong winds), accidental collisions, and environmental pollution; 2. As the lifespan of the PV panels increases, dust and other pollutants continuously adhere to the exposed surface, forming a shading layer and significantly reducing the photoelectric conversion efficiency; 3. The PV panels appear obtrusive, disrupting the overall aesthetic design of the lighting fixture. Utility Model Content

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0029] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, the terms "setting," "installing," and "connecting" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral molding; they can refer to a mechanical connection; they can refer to the internal connection of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model discloses an outdoor lighting fixture, comprising a lamp holder 100, a photovoltaic panel 200, a lighting module 300, and a light-transmitting cover 400. The cover 400 is disposed on the lamp holder 100 and together with the lamp holder 100 forms a receiving cavity S. Both the photovoltaic panel 200 and the lighting module 300 are disposed in the receiving cavity S. External sunlight can pass through the cover 400 to illuminate the photovoltaic panel 200, allowing the photovoltaic panel 200 to convert light energy into electrical energy; the lighting module 300 emits light, allowing light to pass through the cover 400 to illuminate the external space.
[0031] Understandably, this application cleverly utilizes a single light-transmitting cover 400 to simultaneously protect the core power generation component (photovoltaic panel 200) and the core functional component (lighting module 300), and can ensure that external sunlight can be effectively transmitted to the photovoltaic panel 200 for power generation (daytime), and also allow the light from the lighting module 300 to effectively shine through to illuminate the external space (nighttime).
[0032] Through the above structure, on the one hand, the photovoltaic panel 200, housed in the accommodating cavity S, can effectively isolate itself from the direct impact of severe weather (such as hail and strong winds), accidental collisions, and environmental pollution (such as sand and bird droppings). This significantly reduces the risk of damage or malfunction of the photovoltaic panel 200 due to physical damage, extending its service life. On the other hand, the photovoltaic panel 200, housed in the accommodating cavity S, can significantly reduce the direct and rapid accumulation of pollutants such as dust, fallen leaves, and snow on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 200. This design can maintain the relative cleanliness of the photovoltaic panel 200 surface for a longer period of time, thereby ensuring the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic panel 200 throughout its entire life cycle. Furthermore, by integrating the originally exposed and irregularly shaped photovoltaic panels 200 with the lighting module 300 into the accommodating cavity S, the abruptness of the photovoltaic panels 200 in appearance is eliminated, making the overall appearance of the lighting fixture more harmonious, beautiful, and integrated, significantly improving the visual quality and design aesthetics of the product.
[0033] In this embodiment, the cover 400 is provided with a laser engraving part.
[0034] Through the above structure, on the one hand, laser engraving can form preset textures and patterns on the surface of the cover 400 to enrich the appearance of the lamp. In addition, the textures and patterns formed by laser engraving can visually shield or soften the photovoltaic panel 200 and the lighting module 300 placed in the accommodating cavity S. On the other hand, the microstructure formed by laser engraving can act as a diffuser to soften the light emitted by the lighting module 300, forming a more uniform, comfortable, low or no glare lighting effect.
[0035] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The lamp holder 100 includes a mounting platform 110 and a pole 120 connected at the top and bottom. The cover 400 is located on the upper side of the mounting platform 110 and together with the mounting platform 110 forms a receiving cavity S.
[0036] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 The cavity S contains a battery 700, and the lighting module 300 and photovoltaic panel 200 are electrically connected to the battery 700. External sunlight can pass through the cover 400 to the photovoltaic panel 210, which converts the light energy into electrical energy, which is stored in the battery 700. After a preset time, the battery 700 supplies power to the lighting module 300, enabling it to illuminate the external space through the cover 400.
[0037] In some embodiments, the battery 700 is disposed on the pole 120.
[0038] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cover 400 has a spherical crown-shaped structure.
[0039] Through the above structure, the spherical crown-shaped cover 400 has a continuous smooth curved surface, which gives it excellent self-cleaning performance. In addition, the spherical crown shape is a typical pressure-bearing arch structure. This shape can evenly distribute the external pressure (such as hail impact, accidental collision, snow load, strong wind pressure) to the entire curved surface, thus improving the cover 400's ability to resist local impact and overall deformation.
[0040] The cover 400 is located on the upper side of the mounting platform 110. For details, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 2 The outer surface of the cover 400 is provided with a raised edge 500, and a slot 600 is provided between the outer surface of the cover 400 and the raised edge 500. The opening of the slot 600 is set downward. The mounting platform 110 is provided with an annular insertion part 111, which is inserted into the slot 600.
[0041] Through the above structure, the downward-facing slot 600 and the ring-shaped closure design can give the lamp excellent waterproof and dustproof sealing.
[0042] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 The mounting platform 110 is provided with a light-transmitting part 112, and the lighting module 300 is located on the upper side of the light-transmitting part 112. The lighting module 300 can illuminate the external space through the light-transmitting part 112. Both the light-transmitting part 112 and the lighting module 300 have a ring structure, and the photovoltaic panel 200 and the battery 700 are located inside the lighting module 300; the lighting module 300 is set as a ring-shaped LED light strip.
[0043] For details on the connection between mounting platform 110 and upright pole 120, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2The mounting platform 110 and the upright pole 120 are detachably connected by screws.
[0044] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications and substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
