Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of LED strip connector technology, specifically to a quick-connect device for LED strips. Background Technology

[0002] LED light strips are made by mounting LED light-emitting diodes (LEDs) onto a strip-shaped flexible printed circuit board (FPC) or PCB. These strip-shaped products have a long lifespan, are energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly, and are widely used in various decorative industries. LED light strips can be cut to length as needed, making them more flexible in installation and use. However, some outdoor construction sites often lack soldering facilities, especially during subsequent maintenance. When some LEDs on the light strip are damaged, cutting and replacing the damaged sections is very inconvenient and requires soldering.

[0003] Chinese patent CN102694298A discloses an LED strip connector, including a connector cover, a connector seat, two limiting strips, and two metal pieces. The connector cover and the connector seat are insulated. Each metal piece includes a metal piece head and a metal piece tail, with the metal piece tail fixed to the connector seat. The limiting strips are installed on the inner surface of the connector cover or the inner surface of the connector seat. Each of the two metal pieces has a groove or a through hole. When the connector cover and the connector seat are engaged, the two limiting strips pass through two connection points of the LED strip and extend into the grooves of the two metal pieces or pass through the two metal pieces to fix the LED strip to the metal pieces.

[0004] In the aforementioned prior art, two connectors are electrically connected to the LED strip via two metal plates, and then wires are used to connect to the corresponding metal plates on the two connectors. The metal plates are generally flat, with a metal head and a metal tail at each end. The metal head needs to align with the limiting strip on the connector to correspond to the connection point on the LED strip, requiring high assembly precision. The metal tail uses an arc-shaped groove to fit and hold the wire, resulting in insufficient connection strength. Furthermore, if the metal tail becomes loose from the wire, reassembly is quite troublesome.

[0005] Therefore, existing technologies still need to be improved and developed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology by providing a quick-connect device for LED strips that is structurally sound, low-cost, and easy to assemble.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] The present invention discloses a quick-connect device for LED strips, comprising a body and an elastic spring. The first end of the body is provided with a piercing member, and the upper edge of the piercing member is provided with several piercing teeth. The lower end of the elastic spring is connected to the second end of the body, thereby causing the elastic spring to bend upward relative to the body.

[0009] According to the above scheme, a torsion part is provided between the body and the elastic spring. The first end and the second end of the torsion part are deflected at 90°. The first end of the torsion part is connected to the second end of the body, and the second end of the torsion part is connected to the lower end of the elastic spring.

[0010] According to the above scheme, the lower end of the elastic spring is provided with a stabilizing part, and the elastic spring is connected to the second end of the torsion part through the stabilizing part. The stabilizing part is provided with several corrugated creases.

[0011] According to the above scheme, the elastic spring, stabilizing part, torsion part, body and piercing part are integrally stamped structures.

[0012] According to the above scheme, the lower edge of the puncture member is provided with a number of positioning terminals, which are spaced apart from each other.

[0013] According to the above scheme, the first end of the body is provided with a bent end, the bent end and the body form an "L" shape structure, and the upper end of the bent end is connected to the puncture member.

[0014] According to the above scheme, the end edge of the bent end and the positioning terminal nearby form a positioning groove.

[0015] The advantages of this utility model are as follows: This utility model has a reasonable structure. The piercing part at one end of the main body can bite and fix the light strip through the piercing teeth and form an electrical connection. The other end of the main body forms an elastic spring for quick wiring terminals, which facilitates the quick connection of wires. The overall structure is compact, easy to process, and flexible to use. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1As shown, the present invention provides a quick-connect device for LED strips, comprising a body 1 and an elastic spring 2. The first end of the body 1 is provided with a piercing element 3, and the upper edge of the piercing element 3 is provided with a plurality of piercing teeth 31. The lower end of the elastic spring 2 is connected to the second end of the body 1, thereby causing the elastic spring 2 to bend upward relative to the body 1.

[0021] This utility model applies to LED strip connectors. As is known, an LED strip connector has a housing and two conductive metal plates for establishing live and neutral wire connections between the LED strip and the power supply, and between LED strips.

[0022] Preferably, the two ends of the body 1 are respectively provided with a piercing member 3 and an elastic spring 2. The piercing member 3 is used to connect the light strip, and the elastic spring 2 is used to connect the wire, thereby establishing a circuit connection.

[0023] It is understood that two bodies 1 are provided inside the housing of the LED strip connector, and the two bodies 1 are paired and arranged at intervals. When the LED strip is paired and connected to the connector, the bodies 1 engage with the LED strip through a plurality of teeth 31 on the piercing member 3, which can stably fix the LED strip to the connector.

[0024] Furthermore, the piercing teeth 31 can pierce the light strip to connect the light strip circuit, achieving a quick connection. At the same time, the electrical connection is ensured by the interlocking connection between several piercing teeth 31 and the light strip, resulting in better stability.

[0025] Furthermore, the elastic spring 2 is used to adapt to the wiring terminal, that is, the housing of the light strip connector is provided with the wiring terminal, the elastic spring 2 passes through the wiring terminal, and the elastic spring 2 can deform to allow the wire to be easily inserted into the wiring terminal. The elastic spring 2 abuts against the wire (exposed end) to form an electrical connection. The way the elastic spring 2 and the wiring terminal connect the wire is existing technology, and its principle will not be elaborated here.

[0026] Specifically, a torsion part 11 is provided between the body 1 and the elastic spring 2. The first end and the second end of the torsion part 11 are deflected at 90°. The first end of the torsion part 11 is connected to the second end of the body 1, and the second end of the torsion part 11 is connected to the lower end of the elastic spring 2. The body 1 is connected to the elastic spring 2 through the torsion part 11, so that the plurality of perforation teeth 31 on the piercing member 3 are arranged facing upwards, and the elastic spring 2 yields and stretches in the vertical direction to facilitate the assembly of the light strip connector.

[0027] The lower end of the elastic spring 2 is provided with a stabilizing part 21, and the elastic spring 2 is connected to the second end of the torsion part 11 through the stabilizing part 21. The stabilizing part 21 is provided with several corrugated creases 22. It can be understood that the material of the elastic spring 2 itself has metallic ductility and conductivity. The elastic spring 2 can be roll-formed and then heat-treated to obtain stable structural strength. The body 1 and the above-mentioned piercing part 3 can be formed by stamping. During the processing of the elastic spring 2 and the heat treatment, the body 1 will be deformed. Providing the stabilizing part 21 between the body 1 and the elastic spring 2, and stamping to form corrugated creases 22 can effectively eliminate the internal stress of the metal and ensure the stability and consistency of the product.

[0028] Preferably, the elastic spring 2, stabilizing part 21, torsion part 11, body 1, and piercing part 3 are integrally stamped structures. This invention is made of copper, aluminum, and / or alloy materials. First, a blank is obtained by stamping. Then, a bent elastic spring 2 is formed by roll forming. The two ends of the body 1 are then torsion-formed to obtain the torsion part 11. Next, the elastic spring 2 is heat-treated to stabilize its shape. Finally, corrugated creases 22 are formed on the stabilizing part 21 between the torsion part and the elastic spring 2 using roll forming, stamping, or other methods to control the shape and size of the product, ensuring consistency and stability. Finally, several piercing teeth 31 on the piercing part 3 are ground to create sharp edges.

[0029] Furthermore, the lower edge of the piercing member 3 is provided with a plurality of positioning terminals 32, which are spaced apart from each other. The positioning terminals 32 can be inserted into the slots on the light strip connector to prevent the piercing member 3 from shifting when the light strip is pulled, thus ensuring the connection strength between the light strip and the connector.

[0030] The first end of the body 1 is provided with a bent end 12, which forms an "L" shape with the body 1, and the upper end of the bent end 12 is connected to the piercing member 3. The bent end 12 is formed by punching to create a certain height difference between the piercing member 3 and the body 1, and to leave a processing area to form the positioning terminal 32. Preferably, the end edge of the bent end 12 and the positioning terminal 32 adjacent to it form a positioning groove 33.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
