Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of downlight technology, specifically to a lamp with damping-assisted installation. Background Technology

[0002] Downlights, as a common type of recessed lighting device, typically employ a spring-loaded fixing structure to achieve a quick connection between the luminaire and the mounting base. In existing technology, the spring-loaded fixing structure on downlights generally achieves elastic engagement between the luminaire and the mounting base through pre-tension. A typical structure includes U-shaped brackets and torsion springs on both sides of the luminaire body. The U-shaped brackets are connected to the torsion springs and are driven by the torsion springs to have a pre-tension force for engaging with the mounting base. During installation, the U-shaped brackets need to be pushed upwards by hand to overcome the torsion spring force, allowing the U-shaped brackets and the upper part of the luminaire body to extend into the mounting hole of the mounting base. Then, the U-shaped brackets are released, and under the action of the torsion spring, they swing downwards and engage with the inner wall of the mounting base, thus fixing the luminaire to the mounting base. After the luminaire body is passed through the mounting hole, the hand needs to release the U-shaped brackets. At this time, the torsion spring will cause the U-shaped brackets to swing downwards rapidly, which can easily trap fingers. Utility Model Content

[0012] Technical solution eight based on technical solution six: The lamp body protrudes and is provided with a blocking part, the blocking part is located on the sliding path of the slider in the vertical direction, and is configured to prevent the slider from sliding upward to disengage from the sliding rod by abutting against the slider.

[0013] Technical solution nine based on technical solution eight: The lamp body is provided with a limiting part located below the sliding member, and the limiting part is configured to stop the sliding member in a fourth position by abutting against the sliding member.

[0014] Based on any one of technical solutions one to nine, technical solution ten: at least two sliding members are provided corresponding to the elastic clips.

[0015] As can be seen from the above description of this utility model, compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] Technical solution one provides a damped assisted installation lamp, which mainly includes a lamp body, an elastic clip, a sliding member, and a damping member. The lamp can be installed into the mounting holes of a substrate, and is fixed to the substrate by the elastic clip and the lamp body clamping the upper and lower surfaces of the substrate. The sliding member can slide vertically relative to the lamp body and can abut upwards against the elastic clip; the damping member acts on the lamp body and the sliding member at both ends in the vertical direction, and can apply an upward force to the sliding member.

[0017] Before installing the lamp, first open the elastic clip upwards and hold it in the first position. Then slide the slider upwards to the third position. During this process, the upper end of the damping element will move with the slider to maintain the force applied to the slider. After the slider abuts against the elastic clip in the third position, the elastic clip can be released. Under the action of the elastic force, the elastic clip will tend to swing downwards relative to the lamp body. However, at this time, the slider is below the elastic clip, and the elastic clip will apply a downward force to the slider relative to the lamp body and outwards. This force can be divided into... Two forces, downward and outward, act simultaneously. The downward force pushes the slider down, while the outward force causes it to press firmly against the lamp body, creating friction that resists downward movement. The damping element applies an upward force to the slider. When the combined force of friction and damping exceeds the downward force exerted by the elastic clip, or as long as the damping force exceeds the downward force, the slider holds the elastic clip in place, maintaining it in the first position. The lamp, with the elastic clip in the first position, can then be passed through the mounting hole on the substrate. No force needs to be applied to the elastic clip at this point; the installer can hold other parts of the lamp away from the clip. Once the lamp body has passed through the mounting hole, the slider can be pulled down, releasing the holding force on the elastic clip, causing it to swing downwards. However, the installer's hand will not be within the clip's reach at this point. Furthermore, the force generated when the elastic clip swings downward and abuts against the upper surface of the substrate is relatively large, easily overcoming the force of the damping element or the sum of the damping force and friction, causing the lamp body to move upward as a whole. Then, the slider slides downward to the fourth position. In the fourth position, the slider does not interfere with the elastic clip. Although the damping force increases at this point, the force generated when the elastic clip abuts against the upper surface of the substrate is even greater, allowing the elastic clip to be in the second position. This allows the lamp to be clamped and fixed to the substrate through the interaction between the elastic clip and the abutment flange on the lamp body. With this structure, the lamp does not require constant hand pressure to keep the elastic clip open during installation, making installation more convenient. Furthermore, the installation process does not require contact with the clip, reducing the risk of hand pinching.

[0018] In technical solution two, an outwardly protruding pressing part is provided on the sliding component. After the lamp passes through the mounting hole, the pressing part will contact the lower surface of the substrate before the abutting flange. As the lamp continues to move upward under the force applied by the installer, the lower surface of the substrate will exert a downward force on the pressing part, which is also a downward force on the sliding component. This force will overcome the upward force of the damping component on the sliding component, causing the sliding component to slide downward away from the third position, thereby releasing the sliding component from holding the elastic clip, allowing the elastic clip to swing downward to abut the upper surface of the substrate. By providing the pressing part, during the lamp installation process, only the lamp body needs to be pushed into place to automatically complete the downward sliding of the sliding component and the fixation of the elastic clip, enabling one-handed operation and making the lamp installation more convenient and faster.

[0019] In technical solution three, a receiving groove is provided on the abutting flange, and the pressing part can fall completely into the receiving groove, so that the abutting flange can fully contact the lower surface of the substrate, avoiding the formation of a gap between the upper surface of the abutting flange and the lower surface of the substrate due to the influence of the pressing part, and the exposed part at the bottom of the lamp is flatter and more aesthetically pleasing.

[0020] In technical solution four, the elastic clamp consists of an elastic element and an abutment arm. The sliding element makes way outward to form a clearance space. The clearance space can ensure that the sliding element will not interfere with the elastic element when sliding up and down, thus ensuring the smooth movement of the sliding element and the elastic clamp.

[0021] In technical solution five, at least two sliding joints are provided on the slider for sliding cooperation with the lamp body. The multiple sliding joints make the slider slide more stably on the lamp body and reduce slider wobbling. At the same time, the clearance space is set between the two sliding joints, making the overall structural design of the slider more reasonable and ensuring the structural strength and functional realization of the slider itself.

[0022] In technical solution six, the lamp body is provided with a sliding rod, and the sliding part of the sliding member is provided with a sliding hole. The sliding rod can be inserted into the sliding hole and form a clearance fit, so that the sliding member can slide up and down along the sliding rod. Furthermore, the damping member is provided with a spring, which can be easily fitted onto the sliding rod and can avoid bending deformation, making the force applied by the damping member to the sliding member more stable.

[0023] In technical solution seven, the lamp body is provided with a first mounting hole, the sliding member is provided with a second mounting hole, and the damping member can extend into the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole and abut against the bottom of their respective holes. The hole walls of the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole can restrict and protect the damping member, prevent the damping member from falling off, and at the same time improve the stability of the damping member applying force to the sliding member.

[0024] In technical solution eight, a blocking part is provided on the lamp body to limit the upward sliding stroke of the slider and prevent the slider from disengaging from the lamp body.

[0025] In technical solution nine, the lamp body is provided with a limiting part to restrict the downward sliding stroke of the slider and to precisely limit the slider to stop at the fourth position, so as to avoid interference between the slider and the elastic clip.

[0026] In technical solution ten, multiple sliding parts are set, and each sliding part corresponds to a one-to-one elastic clip. The overall structure is simple, which can ensure that each elastic clip can be limited by the sliding parts. The sliding parts have a better holding effect on the elastic clips and are easy to install, thus reducing the overall production cost of the lamp. Attached Figure Description

[0046] Example

[0047] This utility model embodiment relates to a damped assisted installation lamp 20, see reference. Figure 1 The lamp 20 includes a lamp body 21, an elastic clip 22, a sliding member 30, and a damping member 40.

[0048] The lamp 20 is suitable for mounting on a substrate 10 with mounting holes 11, as detailed in the following reference. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The diagram illustrates the mating relationship between the luminaire 20 and the substrate 10 in two different states. Typically, the luminaire 20 can be a downlight, and the substrate 10 is generally a ceiling panel. Therefore, the upper and lower sides of the substrate 10 form the upper surface and the lower surface of the substrate 10, respectively. At the same time, mounting holes 11 can be opened on the substrate 10, and the luminaire 20 can be fixedly installed in the position of the mounting holes 11 by the cooperation of the lamp body 21 and the elastic clip 22.

[0049] The lamp body 21 of the lamp fixture 20 is generally cylindrical. In other embodiments, the shape of the lamp body 21 can be adjusted according to actual needs, such as being cuboid or other shapes. However, generally speaking, the lamp body 21 has a shape with an extending structure in the vertical direction. Its bottom is a light outlet, and it houses the light-emitting device, controller, driver, etc. Its top generally has a heat dissipation device, and a wire can extend outward from the top to connect to an external power supply device. (Refer to...) Figure 1A protruding abutment flange 23 is provided at the bottom of the lamp body 21. The term "protruding outwards" in this specification and claims refers to its position relative to the space occupied by the lamp body 21; the direction towards the interior of the lamp body 21 is inward, and the direction away from the lamp body 21 and towards the outside is outward. The size of the abutment flange 23 is larger than the size of the mounting hole 11 on the substrate 10, allowing the abutment flange 23 to completely cover the mounting hole 11 and to abut against the lower surface of the substrate 10 outside the mounting hole 11. In this embodiment, the outer edge of the abutment flange 23 extends upward to form an upper flange edge 232, which can enclose a groove structure, facilitating the installation of flexible foam components and resulting in a simpler appearance. In this embodiment, refer to... Figure 1 The lamp body 21 includes a main body, a sliding rod 24 and a fixed seat 26. The fixed seat 26 is fixedly installed on the main body by bolts, and the sliding rod 24 is threadedly fixed to the fixed seat 26, as detailed below.

[0050] The lamp 20 includes at least two elastic clips 22, which are rotatable relative to the lamp body 21. In this embodiment, the number of elastic clips 22 is set to two, and these two elastic clips 22 are symmetrically arranged at a distance of 180° from each other. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The elastic clip 22 includes an elastic element 221 and an abutment arm 222. The elastic element 221 is mounted on the lamp body 21, and the abutment arm 222 is integrally formed with the elastic element 221 or has a connection relationship with it. The elastic clip 22 can rotate relative to the lamp body 21, mainly referring to the abutment arm 222 being able to rotate relative to the lamp body 21. The elastic element 221 basically only undergoes deformation rather than a change in position relative to the lamp body 21. Therefore, based on the elastic element 221 being mounted on the lamp body 21, the abutment arm 222 can be directly rotatably connected to the lamp body 21 through a rotating shaft or other structure, or it can indirectly achieve relative rotation with the lamp body 21 through the cooperation between the elastic element 221 and the lamp body 21. Specifically, the elastic element 221 can be set as a torsion spring. The torsion spring is mounted on the lamp body 21 as a whole through a shaft formed in the lamp body 21, and one end of the torsion spring is fixed to the lamp body 21, while the other end is connected to the abutment arm 222. In typical designs, torsion springs are usually made of metal, and the abutment arm 222 is also made of metal; therefore, the torsion spring and the abutment arm 222 can be integrally formed. Alternatively, in other installation methods, a square-shaped extension can be directly extended from the torsion spring. This extension can be inserted into a corresponding slot in the lamp body 21. Under the limiting action of this slot, the elastic element 221 can be fixedly mounted on the lamp body 21. At the same time, utilizing the elastic force of the elastic element 221 itself, the abutment arm 222 can also rotate relative to the lamp body 21. (Refer to...) Figure 1The elastic element 221 is located near the lamp body 21, and the abutment arm 222 extends outward relative to the lamp body 21. A buffer sleeve can be provided at the free end of the abutment arm 222. The buffer sleeve can be made of materials such as plastic or rubber to increase the contact area between the free end of the abutment arm 222 and the upper surface of the substrate 10.

[0051] The elastic clip 22 can move to a first position and a second position, as shown in the reference. Figure 2 In the first position, the elastic clip 22 extends upward and is in an open state, as shown in the reference. Figure 3 In the second position, the elastic clip 22 swings downward to extend outward and downward. Furthermore, when the elastic clip 22 is in the first position, it opens upward so that the horizontal dimension of the lamp 20 is smaller than the size of the mounting hole 11, allowing the lamp 20 to pass through the mounting hole 11 and the elastic clip 22 to enter the space above the substrate 10. In the second position, the elastic clip 22 swings downward under the elastic action of the elastic member 221, and the abutment arm 222 presses downward against the upper surface of the substrate 10. Simultaneously, the reaction force of the upper surface of the substrate 10 on the elastic clip 22 causes the lamp body 21 to move upward until the abutment flange 23 abuts against the lower surface of the substrate 10. At this point, with the cooperation of the elastic clip 22 and the abutment flange 23, the lamp 20 can be fixed to the substrate 10.

[0052] Reference Figure 1 The sliding member 30 in the lamp 20 slides and engages with the lamp body 21 in the vertical direction and moves to a third position on the upper side and a fourth position on the lower side; the damping member 40 acts on the lamp body 21 and the sliding member 30 in the vertical direction respectively, and is adapted to apply an upward force to the sliding member 30; in the third position, the sliding member 30 pushes upward against the elastic clip 22 located in the first position, and the force exerted by the damping member 40 on it overcomes the force exerted by the elastic clip 22 on it to maintain its position in the third position; in the fourth position, the elastic clip 22 is allowed to be located in the second position.

[0053] In this embodiment, at least two sliding members 30 are provided corresponding to each elastic clip 22. In this embodiment, there are two elastic clips 22, therefore two corresponding sliding members 30 are provided. This arrangement has a simple overall structure, ensuring that each elastic clip 22 can be limited by the sliding member 30. The sliding member 30 provides better support for the elastic clip 22 and facilitates its installation, reducing the overall production cost of the lamp 20. Of course, in other embodiments, a ring-shaped sliding member 30 can be provided around the outside of the lamp body 21, which can also serve to limit the elastic clip 22.

[0054] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The sliding member 30 is slidably mounted on the lamp body 21 and can be slidably mounted on the lamp body 21. Figure 2 The third position and Figure 3 The movement is between the fourth position. In this embodiment, the slider 30 is provided with at least two sliding parts 34 arranged circumferentially along the lamp body 21 and used for sliding cooperation with the lamp body 21; the lamp body 21 is provided with a sliding rod 24 extending in the vertical direction; the sliding parts 34 on the slider 30 are provided with sliding holes 341 that pass through vertically, and the sliding holes 341 are clearance-fitted with the sliding rod 24.

[0055] Specifically, the lamp body 21 extends upward to form the aforementioned sliding rod 24. The sliding rod 24 is generally rod-shaped and can cooperate with the sliding contact portion 34 on the sliding member 30, thereby allowing the sliding member 30 to slide up and down relative to the lamp body 21. Corresponding to one sliding member 30, the lamp body 21 has two sliding rods 24, and the sliding member 30 also has two sliding contact portions 34 corresponding to these two sliding rods 24. (See reference...) Figure 1 These two sliding parts 34 can be regarded as ear-shaped structures extending circumferentially to both sides from the main body of the sliding member 30. A sliding hole 341 is provided on these two sliding parts 34, and the outer diameter of the sliding rod 24 matches the inner diameter of the sliding hole 341, so that the sliding hole 341 can form a clearance fit with the sliding rod 24.

[0056] The portion between the two sliding parts 34 of the slider 30 constitutes the main body of the slider 30. The upper end of this main body forms a supporting part 32. This supporting part 32 can abut against the elastic clip 22 as the slider 30 slides upwards from the fourth position. Alternatively, the elastic clip 22 can be first moved upwards to the first position, and then the slider 30 can be slid upwards to the third position, causing the supporting part 32 of the slider 30 to abut against the abutting arm 222 of the elastic clip 22. At this point, due to the specific positional relationship, the friction between the slider 30 and the sliding seat, plus the upward elastic force of the damping member 40 on the slider 30, is perfectly balanced with the elastic force of the elastic member 221 on the abutting arm 222. This keeps the elastic clip 22 in the first position while the slider 30 remains in the third position. Of course, if the friction between the slider 30 and the sliding seat is very small due to the smooth surfaces of both, the upward elastic force of the damping member 40 on the slider 30 mainly serves to limit the abutting arm 222. The slider 30 is provided with at least two sliding joints 34 for sliding cooperation with the lamp body 21. The provision of multiple sliding joints 34 can make the sliding of the slider 30 on the lamp body 21 more stable and reduce the shaking of the slider 30.

[0057] At the same time, refer to Figure 1The sliding member 30 is offset outward relative to the lamp body 21 at least in the portion corresponding to the elastic clip 22, forming an offset space 33 that does not interfere with the elastic member 221. This offset space 33 is formed between the two sliding portions 34. It is easy to understand that the outward offset of the sliding member 30 here means that the main body of the sliding member 30 is further outward relative to its two sliding portions 34, which are formed by extending obliquely from the main body of the sliding member 30 towards the lamp body 21. This creates an offset space 33 between the sliding member 30 and the sliding seat of the lamp body 21. The offset space 33 ensures that the sliding member 30 does not interfere with the elastic member 221 when sliding up and down, guaranteeing smooth movement of both the sliding member 30 and the elastic clip 22.

[0058] In this embodiment, the damping element 40 is a spring, which is sleeved on the sliding rod 24. Specifically, a spring is used as the damping element 40. The spring can be sleeved on the sliding rod 24, and its bottom can abut against the lamp body 21, while its top can abut against the sliding joint 34 of the sliding element 30. This allows it to apply an upward force to the sliding element 30, giving it an upward sliding tendency. By using a spring as the damping element 40, it is easy to sleeve on the sliding rod 24 and avoids bending deformation, making the force applied by the damping element 40 to the sliding element 30 more stable.

[0059] In addition, the lamp body 21 is provided with a first mounting hole 27 with the opening facing upward, and the sliding rod 24 is coaxial with the first mounting hole 27; the sliding part 34 is provided with a second mounting hole 35 with the opening facing downward, and the sliding hole 341 is coaxial with the second mounting hole 35; the lower part and the upper part of the damping member 40 extend into the first mounting hole 27 and the second mounting hole 35 respectively, and abut against the bottom of the first mounting hole 27 and the second mounting hole 35.

[0060] Specifically, refer to Figure 1The lamp body 21 includes a main body as its main component, a sliding rod 24 and a fixing seat 26 separate from the main body. The fixing seat 26 is fixedly mounted on the main body of the lamp body 21 by means of bolts or welding. The first mounting hole 27 is formed at the position corresponding to the sliding rod 24. The first mounting hole 27 can be regarded as being formed by hollowing out the inside of a cylindrical component, with its opening facing upward and its axis arranged in the vertical direction. At the same time, the sliding rod 24 extends into the first mounting hole 27 and is fixedly connected to the main body of the lamp body 21. Specifically, an internal thread can be provided at the bottom of the sliding rod 24, and an exposed bolt can be provided on the main body of the lamp body 21. The sliding rod 24 can be directly screwed and fixed to the bolt. Corresponding to the first mounting hole 27, a second mounting hole 35 is also provided on the sliding part 34 of the slider 30. The opening of the second mounting hole 35 faces downward, and the bottom of the second mounting hole 35 is provided with the aforementioned sliding hole 341. In this way, when the spring is used as the damping element 40, while the damping element 40 is sleeved on the sliding rod 24, its lower part can extend into the first mounting hole 27, and its upper part can extend into the second mounting hole 35, respectively abutting against the bottom of the corresponding mounting hole, so that its upper and lower ends act on the slider 30 and the lamp body 21 respectively. At the same time, the hole walls of the first mounting hole 27 and the second mounting hole 35 can restrict and protect the damping element 40, preventing the damping element 40 from falling off, and improving the stability of the force applied by the damping element 40 to the slider 30.

[0061] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1 The lamp body 21 has a protruding blocking portion 241, which is located on the sliding path of the slider 30 in the vertical direction and is configured to prevent the slider 30 from sliding upward and disengaging from the sliding seat by abutting against the slider 30. The lamp body 21 has a limiting portion 25 located below the slider 30, which is configured to stop the slider 30 in a fourth position by abutting against the slider 30.

[0062] Specifically, the blocking part 241 is located at the top of the sliding rod 24. It is a flange structure that extends uniformly outward relative to the axis of the sliding rod 24, so that the size of the top of the sliding rod 24 is larger than the outer diameter of its lower position. After the sliding member 30 slides upward to more than the third position, the sliding part 34 will be limited by the blocking part 241 and cannot continue to slide upward, thereby limiting the upward sliding stroke of the sliding member 30 and preventing the sliding member 30 from disengaging from the lamp body 21. Since the sliding rod 24 is installed by fixing its lower end to the body of the lamp body 21, during assembly, the sliding member 30 can be first sleeved on the sliding rod 24, and then the sliding rod 24 can be screwed and fixed to the body of the lamp body 21. In this embodiment, the limiting part 25 is the edge of the first mounting hole 27 of the fixing base 26. The height of the edge of the first mounting hole 27 is preset. When the slider 30 slides down to the fourth position, the sliding part 34 of the slider 30 will abut against the edge of the first mounting hole 27, thereby stopping the slider 30 at the fourth position and preventing it from sliding down further. Through the limiting part 25, the downward sliding stroke of the slider 30 can be limited, and the slider 30 can be precisely limited to stop at the fourth position, avoiding interference between the slider 30 and the elastic clip 22.

[0063] Furthermore, the slider 30 is provided with an outwardly extending pressing portion 31, which is adapted to abut against the lower surface of the substrate 10 upwardly to provide the slider 30 with a force that overcomes friction and moves downward. Specifically, refer to... Figure 1 The pressing part 31 is a lug provided on the bottom edge of the main body of the sliding member 30 and extending outward relative to the lamp body 21. The outward extension length of the pressing part 31 is slightly shorter than the outward extension length of the abutting flange 23. However, the pressing part 31 can still abut against the lower surface of the substrate 10 during the process of the lamp 20 passing upward through the mounting hole 11. When the sliding member 30 is in the third position, the pressing part 31 will contact the lower surface of the substrate 10 before the abutting flange 23. As the lamp 20 continues to move upward under the force of the installer, the lower surface of the substrate 10 will apply a downward force to the pressing part 31, that is, a downward force to the sliding member 30. This force will overcome the upward force of the damping member 40 on the sliding member 30, causing the sliding member 30 to slide downward away from the third position, thereby removing the sliding member 30 from the elastic clip 22, so that the elastic clip 22 can swing downward to abut against the upper surface of the substrate 10. By setting the pressing part 31, during the installation of the lamp 20, the sliding part 30 can be automatically lowered and the elastic clip 22 can be fixed automatically by simply pushing the lamp body 21 into place. This allows for one-handed operation, making the installation of the lamp 20 more convenient and faster.

[0064] Furthermore, the upper surface of the abutting flange 23 is provided with a recessed receiving groove 231 corresponding to the pressing part 31. The pressing part 31 completely falls into the receiving groove 231 when the sliding member 30 is in the fourth position. Specifically, the upper surface of the abutting flange 23 can be recessed downward to form a shallow groove structure. The upper surface of the groove wall on the outer side forms the upper edge 232 of the flange. When the lamp 20 is installed, it can abut against the lower surface of the substrate 10 through the upper edge 232 of the flange. At the same time, the groove structure on the abutting flange 23 can form the receiving groove 231. The depth of the receiving groove 231 is greater than the thickness of the pressing part 31, or the position of the upper edge 232 of the abutting flange 23 is higher than the upper surface of the pressing part 31 when the sliding member 30 is in the fourth position. Both of these conditions can make the pressing part 31 completely fall into the receiving groove 231. This arrangement allows the abutment flange 23 to fully contact the lower surface of the substrate 10, preventing a gap from forming between the upper surface of the abutment flange 23 and the lower surface of the substrate 10 due to the pressure abutment part 31. This results in a smoother and more aesthetically pleasing exposed portion at the bottom of the lamp 20. Alternatively, a deeper receiving groove 231 can be provided separately on the upper surface of the abutment flange 23 at the position corresponding to the pressure abutment part 31. In this case, the depth of the receiving groove 231 should be greater than the groove-like structures formed at other positions by the depression of the upper surface of the abutment flange 23. This arrangement allows the pressure abutment part 31 to be hidden within the abutment flange 23 without weakening the overall structural strength of the abutment flange 23.

[0065] This utility model embodiment relates to a damping-assisted installation lamp 20, which mainly includes a lamp body 21, an elastic clip 22, a sliding member 30, and a damping member 40. The lamp 20 can be installed into the mounting hole 11 of the substrate 10, and is fixed to the substrate 10 by the clamping of the upper and lower surfaces of the substrate 10 by the elastic clip 22 and the lamp body 21. The sliding member 30 can slide up and down relative to the lamp body 21, and can abut against the elastic clip 22 upwards. The damping member 40 acts on the lamp body 21 and the sliding member 30 at both ends in the vertical direction, and can apply an upward force to the sliding member 30. Before installing the lamp 20, first open the elastic clip 22 upwards and keep it in the first position. Then slide the slider 30 upwards to the third position. During this process, the upper end of the damping member 40 will move with the slider 30 to maintain the force applied to the slider 30. After the slider 30 abuts against the elastic clip 22 upwards in the third position, the elastic clip 22 can be released. Under the action of the elastic force, the elastic clip 22 will tend to swing downwards relative to the lamp body 21. However, at this time, the slider 30 is located below the elastic clip 22. The elastic clip 22 will apply a downward force to the slider 30 and an outward force relative to the lamp body 21. This force can be divided into... The sliding member 30 is pushed down by two downward and outward forces. The downward force pushes the sliding member 30 down, while the outward force causes the sliding member 30 to press tightly against the lamp body 21, creating a frictional force that hinders its downward movement. Simultaneously, the damping member 40 applies an upward force to the sliding member 30. The combined force of the frictional force and the force applied by the damping member 40 exceeds the downward force exerted by the elastic clip 22 on the sliding member 30, or as long as the force applied by the damping member 40 exceeds the downward force exerted by the elastic clip 22, the sliding member 30 can hold the elastic clip 22 in place, keeping it in the first position. Afterward, the lamp 20, with the elastic clip 22 held in the first position, can be passed through the mounting hole 11 on the substrate 10. No force needs to be applied to the elastic clip 22 at this point, and the installer can hold other parts of the lamp 20 away from the position of the elastic clip 22. After the lamp body 21 passes through the mounting hole 11, the slider 30 can be pulled down by hand to make it slide down. The holding force on the elastic clip 22 is removed, and the elastic clip 22 swings downward. However, at this time, the installer's hand will not be in a position that the elastic clip 22 can grip. Furthermore, the force formed by the elastic clip 22 hitting the upper surface of the substrate 10 after swinging downward is relatively large, which can easily overcome the force of the damping member 40 or the sum of the force of the damping member 40 and the frictional force, so that the lamp body 21 moves upward as a whole.Subsequently, the slider 30 slides downward to the fourth position. In this position, the slider 30 does not interfere with the elastic clip 22. Although the force of the damping member 40 increases, the force generated by the elastic clip 22 abutting against the upper surface of the substrate 10 is even greater, allowing the elastic clip 22 to be positioned in the second position. This enables the lamp 20 to be clamped and fixed to the substrate 10 through the interaction of the elastic clip 22 and the abutment flange 23 on the lamp body 21. With this structure, the lamp 20 does not require constant hand pressure on the elastic clip 22 during installation, making installation more convenient. Furthermore, the installation process does not require contact with the clip, reducing the risk of hand pinching.
