Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of LED lighting fixture technology, and in particular to a flexible LED light strip tooling fixture. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, flexible LED light strips (such as...) Figure 1 As shown, the production of the LED strip (including reflective paper 10, light guide plate 20, and LED light strip 30) still mainly relies on manual assembly. First, the reflective paper is fixed to a flat surface. Then, the light guide plate 20 is aligned and glued onto one side of the reflective paper, ensuring the outer edge of the light guide plate 20 does not extend beyond the outer edge of the reflective paper. Next, the LED light strip 30 is glued onto the other side of the reflective paper. Finally, the reflective paper is folded in half along its centerline so that the light guide plate 20 covers the LED light strip 30. The folded centerline is then pinched flat to complete the manual assembly of a flexible LED light strip. This assembly method has disadvantages including, but not limited to, the following:

[0003] 1. Low efficiency: Manually applying reflective paper and aligning light guide plates and LED strips is time-consuming and difficult to meet the needs of mass production;

[0004] 2. Poor consistency: Manual operation can easily lead to wrinkles in the reflective paper and misalignment of the light guide plate, affecting the uniformity of light effect;

[0005] 3. High costs: rising labor costs and long training cycles for employees;

[0006] 4. The labor intensity is high. Workers have to bend over for long periods of time to stick and fold, which causes great strain on the lumbar spine. In addition, it requires a lot of eye care and takes a long time. Prolonged use of the eyes is very harmful to the eyes.

[0007] Against this background, the present invention proposes a new technical solution. Utility Model Content

[0029] This utility model provides a flexible LED light strip tooling fixture, such as Figure 2 , 3As shown in Figure 4, it includes at least one mounting member 40, on which a light guide plate mounting groove 60 and a light strip mounting groove 50 are provided, the light guide plate mounting groove 60 and the light strip mounting groove 50 extending in parallel; a reflective paper mounting plane 70 is provided above the light guide plate mounting groove 60 and the light strip mounting groove 50.

[0030] When assembling the flexible LED light strip, first, the light guide plate 20 is clipped into the light guide plate mounting groove 60 and placed along the length of the light guide plate mounting groove 60. Then, the LED light strip 30 is clipped into the light strip mounting groove 50 and placed along the length of the light strip mounting groove 50. Finally, the reflective paper 10 is pasted onto the reflective paper mounting plane 70 with the adhesive side facing down. In this way, the light guide plate 20 and the LED light strip 30 are pasted onto the reflective paper 10 in parallel on both sides. Finally, the reflective paper 10 is pulled up to bring out the pasted light guide plate 20 and LED light strip 30. Folding the reflective paper 10 in half completes the assembly of the flexible LED light strip. In specific implementation, the pasting of the reflective paper 10 can be done manually or by using an automatic adhesive machine.

[0031] The light guide plate mounting slot 60 and the LED strip mounting slot 50 define the installation areas for the light guide plate 20 and the LED strip 30. Alignment is not required; simply install the light guide plate 20 and the LED strip 30 separately. This flexible LED strip fixture assists in the rapid positioning and placement of the light guide plate 20 and the LED strip 30, and helps the reflective paper 10 quickly adhere the light guide plate 20 and the LED strip 30 to both sides of one side, thereby greatly improving the assembly efficiency of the flexible LED strip.

[0032] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, a rear baffle and a front baffle are provided on both sides of the top surface of the mounting component 40. The confined space between the rear baffle and the front baffle forms a reflective paper mounting plane 70. The reflective paper mounting plane 70 is parallel to the light guide plate mounting groove 60 below it. The rear baffle and the front baffle not only limit the formation of the reflective paper mounting plane 70, but also assist in the quick edge alignment of the reflective paper 10 when it is applied. When using an automatic adhesive machine, the rollers on both sides of the automatic adhesive machine can also abut against the rear baffle and the front baffle respectively to achieve automatic positioning.

[0033] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the height of the rear baffle is greater than that of the front baffle. In this way, the rear baffle acts as an operation limiter during installation, making it convenient for workers to place the light guide plate 20 and the LED light strip 30.

[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the left and right ends of the mounting component 40 are respectively provided with interlocking structures that can be interlocked with each other. When there are multiple mounting components 40, they can be connected side-by-side through the interlocking structures to form a long, continuous connection structure. When connected side-by-side, the top surfaces of the light guide plate mounting groove 60 and the LED strip mounting groove 50 on any mounting component 40 are flush with the top surfaces of the light guide plate mounting groove 60 and the LED strip mounting groove 50 on their adjacent interlocking mounting components 40. On the operating table, multiple mounting components 40 can be arbitrarily assembled according to the length of the light guide plate 20 and the LED strip 30, so that the length of the tooling fixture can meet the assembly requirements of the flexible LED strip. Specifically, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the snap-fit ​​structure includes a dovetail tenon 90 disposed at the left end of the mounting member 40 and a dovetail groove 80 disposed at the right end of the mounting member 40. The dovetail tenon 90 on one mounting member 40 can be snapped onto the dovetail groove 80 on another mounting member 40 to achieve connection.

[0035] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes or modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention as defined by the claims.
