[0027] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Similar elements in different embodiments are referred to by related similar element reference numerals. In the following embodiments, many details are described to facilitate a better understanding of the present application. However, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that some features may be omitted in different situations, or may be replaced by other elements, materials, or methods. In some cases, certain operations related to the present application are not shown or described in the specification. This is to avoid obscuring the core parts of the present application with excessive description. For those skilled in the art, detailed description of these related operations is not necessary; they can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and general technical knowledge in the art.

[0028] Furthermore, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any suitable manner to form various embodiments. At the same time, the steps or actions in the method description can be rearranged or adjusted in a manner obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various orders in the specification and drawings are only for the clear description of a particular embodiment and do not imply a necessary order, unless otherwise stated that a particular order must be followed.

[0029] The serial numbers assigned to components in this document, such as "first" and "second," are used only to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. The terms "connection" and "linkage" used in this application, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (linkages).

[0030] As a lighting device, the lens of an industrial or mining lamp serves to diverge or converge the light emitted by the LED light source, thereby adjusting the beam angle. In existing industrial and mining lamps, the lens is typically fixed to the lamp body with screws, often requiring multiple screws for a secure connection. This makes lens disassembly and installation inconvenient, hindering efforts to reduce production time and subsequent maintenance. Furthermore, the inability to quickly replace lenses results in significant inventory costs.

[0031] On the other hand, when the lens is installed onto the lamp body, there is often an installation gap. Moisture, dust, and other contaminants can easily enter the lamp body through this gap, damaging components such as the LED light source. To address these two issues, a snap-fit ​​connector can be installed between the lens and the lamp body's mounting slot. This connector secures the lens by snapping it in place, facilitating installation and removal. Simultaneously, it acts as a seal, closing the installation gap.

[0032] like Figures 1-4As shown, one embodiment provides an industrial lamp, including a lamp body 100, a lens 200, and a snap-fit ​​component 300. The lamp body 100 refers to the part of the industrial lamp excluding the lens 200 and the snap-fit ​​component 300. The lamp body 100 may include an LED light source 110, a heat sink 120, and other components. The heat sink 120 dissipates the heat generated by the LED light source 110, and a mounting groove 121 may be formed at the bottom of the heat sink 120. The mounting groove 121 is used to mount the LED light source 110 and the lens 200. Specifically, the LED light source 110 can be fixed to the bottom of the mounting groove 121 to ensure full contact with the heat sink 120; the outer periphery of the lens 200 can be fixed to the groove wall of the mounting groove 121.

[0033] The snap-fit ​​component 300 is used to snap and fix the lens 200 within the mounting groove 121. The mounting groove 121 has a snap-fit ​​component 300 on one side and a snap-fit ​​groove for accommodating the snap-fit ​​component 300 on the other side. For example, the snap-fit ​​component can be located on the outer periphery of the lens 200, and the mounting groove 121 has a snap-fit ​​groove adapted to the snap-fit ​​component. The snap-fit ​​component can be an integral part of the lens 200, or it can be fixedly connected to the lens 200 by means of adhesive bonding or other methods.

[0034] The snap-fit ​​component can also be disposed on the groove wall of the mounting groove 121, and correspondingly, a snap-fit ​​groove can be provided on the outer periphery of the lens 200. The snap-fit ​​component can be an integral structure with the heat sink 120, or the snap-fit ​​component can be fixedly connected to the lens 200 by means of adhesive bonding or other methods.

[0035] To facilitate the installation and removal of the lens 200 and the heat sink 120, the snap-fit ​​member 300 can be made of an elastic material, such as soft rubber, to be inserted into or removed from the snap-fit ​​slot through elastic deformation. Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​member can also be telescopic; specifically, it includes a fixed part and a movable part, the movable part being able to extend and retract relative to the fixed part to facilitate insertion into or removal from the snap-fit ​​slot.

[0036] In the industrial and mining lamp of the above embodiment, the lamp body 100 is provided with a mounting groove 121, and the lens 200 is located in the mounting groove 121 and is fixedly connected to the lamp body 100 through a snap-fit ​​member 300. The snap-fit ​​method between the lens 200 and the lamp body 100 makes the installation and disassembly of the lens 200 more convenient, which helps to reduce the production time cost of the industrial and mining lamp, and at the same time makes it easier for users to maintain or replace the lens 200.

[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the snap-fit ​​component 300 can also be a separate part. Specifically, a first snap-fit ​​groove 1211 and a second snap-fit ​​groove 210 are respectively provided on the groove wall of the mounting groove 121 and the outer periphery of the lens 200. One side of the snap-fit ​​component 300 is located in the first snap-fit ​​groove 1211, and the other side of the snap-fit ​​component 300 is located in the second snap-fit ​​groove 210. The side closer to the center of the mounting groove 121 is defined as the inner side, and the side closer to the groove wall of the mounting groove 121 is defined as the outer side. The inner side of the snap-fit ​​component 300 snaps into the first snap-fit ​​groove 1211, and the outer side of the snap-fit ​​component 300 snaps into the second snap-fit ​​groove 210.

[0038] Multiple snap-fit ​​connectors 300 can be provided, arranged along the outer periphery of the lens 200. Alternatively, the snap-fit ​​connector 300 can be a single, integrated ring-shaped component. This ring-shaped design helps to seal the mounting gap of the lens 200 and also acts as a sealing ring, preventing moisture, dust, etc., from entering the interior of the industrial lamp through the mounting gap. If the snap-fit ​​connector 300 cannot completely seal the mounting gap, a separate sealing ring can be provided to seal the gap. In this case, the snap-fit ​​connector 300 only serves to fix the lens 200, the sealing component, and the lamp body 100.

[0039] Preferably, the snap-fit ​​member 300 is annular in shape and is disposed along the inner circumference of the mounting groove 121 or along the outer circumference of the lens 200.

[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the depth of the second locking groove 210 is greater than the depth of the first locking groove 1211. Because the second locking groove 210 is deeper, the locking member 300 can be installed in the second locking groove 210 first, that is, the locking member 300 is first connected to the lens 200, and then the lens 200 and the locking member 300 are installed together into the mounting groove 121. During the installation process, the outer side of the locking member 300 engages with the first locking groove 1211. Because the first locking groove 1211 is shallower, the locking member 300 can more easily enter and exit, facilitating the installation and removal of the lens 200.

[0041] In other embodiments, the depth of the second slot 210 can be set to be less than the depth of the first slot 1211. Accordingly, when installing the lens 200, the slot 300 is first inserted into the first slot 1211, that is, the slot 300 is first connected to the heat sink 120.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a guide slope 1212 is provided at the opening of the second snap-fit ​​groove 210. The guide slope 1212 makes the groove width of the second snap-fit ​​groove 210 gradually widen from the bottom of the groove to the opening, which facilitates the insertion and removal of the snap-fit ​​component 300.

[0043] The outer side of the snap-fit ​​component 300 may also be provided with a guide surface 310. The guide surface 310 can fit tightly with the guide slope surface 1212, improving the sealing effect on the installation gap. At the same time, the shape of the guide surface 310 facilitates the snap-fit ​​component 300 to be inserted into or removed from the second snap-fit ​​groove 210.

[0044] The inner side of the snap-fit ​​member 300 may also be provided with at least one annular protrusion 320, which is capable of radial elastic deformation. For example... Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, three annular protrusions 320 are provided, and the three annular protrusions 320 are arranged at intervals. During the installation or removal of the lens 200, the annular protrusions 320 of the snap-fit ​​member 300 can deform radially, making it easier to insert into the second snap-fit ​​groove 210. In addition, the multiple spaced annular protrusions 320 increase the sealing between the snap-fit ​​member 300 and the first snap-fit ​​groove 1211.

[0045] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting groove 121 of the heat sink 120 is provided with multiple bayonet slots 1213. Correspondingly, the outer periphery of the lens 200 is provided with a locking block 220 protruding from the lens 200 body, which is used to engage with the bayonet slot 1213. By rotating the lens 200 at a certain angle and engaging with different bayonet slots 1213, the light emission angle of the working conditions can be adjusted.

[0046] The lamp body 100 may also include a base 130, an emergency connector 140, a power supply 150, a waterproof gasket 160 for the power supply compartment, and a lifting ring 170. The base 130 can be a universal interface base 130 used to mount sound and light control sensors, etc. The power supply 150 is used to supply power to the LED light source 110, and the waterproof gasket 160 for the power supply compartment is used to seal the power supply compartment. The emergency connector 140 is electrically connected to the LED light source 110; when the power supply 150 is unavailable, power can be supplied to the LED light source 110 through the emergency connector 140. The lifting ring 170 is located at the very top of the industrial lamp and is used for hoisting the lamp.

[0047] The above examples illustrate this application only to aid understanding and are not intended to limit its scope. Those skilled in the art to which this application pertains can make various simple deductions, modifications, or substitutions based on the ideas presented.
