Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wall panel decorative lighting technology, and more specifically, to a wall panel light column that is easy to replace. Background Technology

[0002] In modern architectural decoration, wall-mounted illuminated light columns not only provide lighting but also serve to decorate and beautify spaces, and are widely used in various commercial venues, public buildings, and high-end residences. However, existing wall-mounted illuminated light columns have many problems in practical use.

[0003] On the one hand, with traditional wall-mounted illuminated light poles, replacing a faulty light source is extremely cumbersome. It typically requires removing surrounding wall panels or related decorative components, consuming significant time and manpower. This undoubtedly increases operating costs and maintenance difficulty for large venues. For example, in corridors of large shopping malls or hotels, if a light pole's light source is damaged, maintenance personnel need to spend considerable time dismantling the complex surrounding decorative structures to access the light pole section that needs replacement, severely impacting the venue's normal operation and aesthetics.

[0004] On the other hand, the existing wall-mounted light poles are not well-designed in their connection to the wall panels. Most light poles are fixed to the wall panels, lacking flexibility and unable to adapt to changes in different architectural designs and decoration styles. Moreover, this fixed connection method requires extremely high installation precision during the installation process. Any deviation may result in a loose fit between the light pole and the wall panel, affecting the overall aesthetics and performance.

[0005] Furthermore, in terms of wiring, traditional wall-mounted light poles have messy wiring, with exposed cables not only affecting aesthetics but also posing safety hazards. For example, in some public places, exposed cables are easily stepped on or pulled by pedestrians, leading to cable damage and electrical faults. Moreover, messy wiring hinders later maintenance and repair, increasing the difficulty of troubleshooting. Utility Model Content

[0006] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model proposes a wall panel light column that is easy to replace.

[0007] A replaceable wall panel light pole includes:

[0008] The light-emitting module consists of an integrated light source assembly and a functional base. The integrated light source assembly, as the core of the light-emitting component, utilizes advanced integration technology to combine multiple light sources, providing uniform, bright, and stable light output to meet the lighting and decorative needs of various scenarios. The functional base plays a crucial role in supporting and connecting the integrated light source assembly and interfacing with the composite wall panel. The functional base is equipped with a power connector and a mechanical locking assembly. The power connector enables quick and stable electrical connection with the corresponding components on the composite wall panel, ensuring a stable power supply to the integrated light source assembly and guaranteeing its normal light-emitting operation. The mechanical locking assembly ensures a reliable mechanical connection between the light-emitting module and the composite wall panel, keeping both stable during use and preventing loosening due to external forces.

[0009] Composite wall panel: The surface of the composite wall panel has an extended mounting cavity, which includes an upper light effect display section and a lower functional docking section. The upper light effect display section is mainly used to display the light effect emitted by the light-emitting module. Its design can reasonably refract and scatter the light, so that the light is displayed in a more uniform, softer and more beautiful way, enhancing the overall decorative effect. The lower functional docking section is equipped with a wall panel socket that matches the power supply connector. Through this matching design, a fast and accurate electrical connection between the light-emitting module and the composite wall panel can be achieved, ensuring the stability of power transmission. At the same time, the functional base is embedded and slidable. The assembly method allows for detachable connection to the functional docking section, forming a three-point positioning constraint: an interference fit between the top and the light effect display section, which ensures the top position of the light-emitting module is fixed while providing a certain amount of friction to prevent it from wobbling in the horizontal direction; a side-mounted plug-in coupling with the wall panel socket, which not only achieves electrical connection but also provides lateral positioning, further stabilizing the light-emitting module; and a quick-fixing mechanism at the bottom, which securely fixes the bottom of the light-emitting module to the composite wall panel, ensuring stable and reliable installation of the entire light-emitting module on the composite wall panel.

[0010] Furthermore, the functional docking section includes an extended bottom groove, which is wider than the light effect display section and forms double-sided limiting flanges. The extended bottom groove provides more space for the installation of the functional base, making it easier for the functional base to be installed smoothly through an embedded sliding fit. The double-sided limiting flanges limit the functional base from both sides, preventing it from shifting left or right during installation or use, further improving the accuracy and stability of the installation.

[0011] The mechanical locking assembly includes positioning holes on the functional base and mating holes on the bottom groove. Axial constraint is achieved through fasteners. This design allows the functional base and the composite wall panel to be tightly fixed in the axial direction, avoiding relative displacement between the two in the axial direction due to external forces such as vibration, and ensuring the stability of the connection between the light-emitting module and the composite wall panel.

[0012] In addition, the cross-section of the expansion groove is a tapered trapezoidal structure. This special structural design facilitates the smooth insertion of the functional base into the expansion groove along the tapering direction, reducing the installation difficulty. On the other hand, after installation, the tapered trapezoidal structure can form a better clamping force on the functional base, enhancing the connection stability between the two and preventing the functional base from coming out of the expansion groove.

[0013] Cable Management System: This utility model also includes a concealed wiring channel that extends along the edge of the composite wall panel and connects to the functional docking section. The concealed wiring channel allows the cables supplying power to the light-emitting modules to be hidden inside the composite wall panel, preventing the cables from being exposed. This not only improves the overall aesthetics but also eliminates potential safety hazards caused by exposed cables, such as damage from being stepped on or pulled. At the same time, this wiring method facilitates later maintenance and repair. Staff can easily find and troubleshoot cable faults along the concealed wiring channel, improving maintenance efficiency.

[0014] Beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. Easy replacement: The light-emitting module can be detachably connected to the composite wall panel through embedded sliding fit and three-point positioning constraint. When the light source component fails, there is no need to remove a large number of surrounding wall panels or decorative parts. The maintenance personnel can directly remove the light-emitting module from the composite wall panel for replacement, which greatly saves replacement time and labor costs and improves maintenance efficiency.

[0016] 2. Stable and flexible connection: The three-point positioning constraint between the functional base and the composite wall panel, as well as the mechanical locking components, ensure the stability of the connection between the light-emitting module and the composite wall panel. At the same time, the detachable connection method allows the light-emitting module to be replaced or adjusted according to different architectural designs and decoration styles, which has high flexibility and adaptability.

[0017] 3. Aesthetics and Safety: The concealed wiring channel hides the cables inside the composite wall panel, making the entire wall panel light column look cleaner and more beautiful. At the same time, it eliminates the safety hazards caused by exposed cables and improves the safety of use. Attached Figure Description

[0026] 1. Light-emitting module 100

[0027] Integrated light source assembly 110: Uses long-life LED light source and adopts a light source strip with a certain degree of flexibility.

[0028] Functional base 120: Made of high-strength, well-insulated engineering plastics, such as polycarbonate (PC). At the top of the functional base 120, an interference fit structure is designed to match the light effect display section 211. The dimensional accuracy of this structure is controlled within ±0.1mm to ensure the tightness and stability of the interference fit. On the side of the functional base 120, a power connector 121 is installed. The power connector 121 features an anti-misinsertion design, with a unique interface shape and size that can only be correctly mated with the wall panel socket 213. At the bottom of the functional base 120, a positioning hole 122a is provided. The diameter of the positioning hole 122a is determined according to the specifications of the selected fastener. For example, if a 5mm diameter bolt is selected as the fastener, the diameter of the positioning hole 122a is designed to be 5.2mm to ensure that the bolt can pass through smoothly and achieve tightening.

[0029] Mechanical locking assembly 122: In addition to the positioning hole 122a, it also includes fasteners such as bolts and nuts that are adapted to the mating hole 214a of the extended bottom groove 214. The bolts are made of stainless steel to enhance their corrosion resistance, and the nuts are self-locking nuts to ensure that they will not loosen under vibration or other conditions.

[0030] 2. Composite wall panel 200

[0031] Extended mounting cavity 210: The extended mounting cavity 210 is processed on the surface of the composite wall panel 200 through mold injection molding process. The inner wall of the upper light effect display section 211 is treated with a high reflectivity coating, such as sprayed aluminum oxide coating, to improve the light reflection effect and make the light scatter more evenly. The extended bottom groove 214 of the lower functional docking section 212 adopts a tapered trapezoidal structure. The width of the upper bottom of its cross-section is 2-5mm larger than the width of the lower bottom. The height of the double-sided limiting flanges 215 is 3-5mm to ensure the accurate positioning of the functional base 120 during installation. At the bottom of the extended bottom groove 214, a mating hole 214a is opened according to the position corresponding to the positioning hole 122a on the functional base 120. The depth of the mating hole 214a is determined according to the length of the bolt, generally 2-3mm deeper than the length of the bolt screwed in, to ensure that the bolt can be fully screwed in and tightened.

[0032] Wall panel socket 213: The wall panel socket 213 is made of high-quality conductive metal material, such as copper alloy, and is silver-plated to reduce contact resistance and improve conductivity. The interface shape and size of the wall panel socket 213 are precisely matched with the power supply connector 121 to ensure a reliable electrical connection between the two.

[0033] Concealed wiring channel 310: During the manufacturing process of composite wall panel 200, a concealed wiring channel 310 is reserved. The cross-sectional shape of concealed wiring channel 310 is rectangular, with a width of 10-15mm and a height of 5-8mm, to facilitate the insertion and arrangement of cables. The inner wall of the channel is smoothed to prevent the cables from being scratched during the insertion process. At the same time, a rubber sealing sleeve is set at the connection between concealed wiring channel 310 and functional docking section 212 to prevent dust and debris from entering the channel and affecting the normal use of cables.

[0034] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art.
