Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of lighting equipment technology and relates to a light strip. Background Technology

[0002] LED strips are made by soldering LED lights onto copper wires or flexible circuit boards using a special process, and then connecting them to a power source to emit light. They are named for their strip-like shape when they emit light. To prevent the LED strip from becoming too long, they are usually used with connectors, which also serve a control function. However, during actual assembly, because the front and back sides are not very different, if care is not taken, they may be installed backwards, making disassembly inconvenient and potentially damaging the connection points, requiring the entire strip to be replaced, increasing usage costs, and thus failing to meet usage requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology by providing a light strip that solves these problems.

[0004] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A light strip, comprising a light strip body with a controller, a shunt, a connector, and a plug, characterized in that the controller consists of a main control body with an insertion hole and an insertion block with an insertion strip, wherein the main control body is provided with a reverse insertion unit one connected to the insertion hole and cooperating with the insertion block to prevent reverse insertion on its end face at the insertion hole, and the connector consists of a connecting body with a connecting hole and a connecting block with a connecting strip, wherein the connecting body is also provided with a reverse insertion unit two connected to the connecting block and cooperating with the connecting block to prevent reverse insertion on its end face at the connecting hole.

[0005] In the aforementioned light strip, the reverse insertion unit includes two reverse insertion blocks located outside the insertion hole. The two reverse insertion blocks are provided on the connection end face of the insertion block and the main control body, with two axially recessed mounting grooves for mounting the corresponding reverse insertion blocks. The outer peripheral wall of the insertion block located at the mounting groove is provided with a locking block that connects to it and engages with the corresponding reverse insertion block. The reverse insertion block is provided with a locking groove.

[0006] In the aforementioned light strip, the reverse insertion unit two includes two elastic blocks and two snap-fit ​​blocks. The two elastic blocks are respectively disposed on the connecting body and the connecting block, and the two snap-fit ​​blocks are also respectively disposed on the connecting body and the connecting block. Each elastic block is provided with a hook portion that cooperates with the snap-fit ​​block, and the snap-fit ​​block is arranged in a right-angled triangular structure.

[0007] Compared with existing technologies, this light strip prevents its connector from being inserted backwards by setting up reverse insertion unit one and reverse insertion unit two. At the same time, it also has a snap-fit ​​function after insertion, making the connection more stable. Attached Figure Description

[0008] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of this light strip.

[0009] In the diagram, 1 is the main control unit; 2 is the insertion block; 3 is the connecting body; 4 is the connecting block; 5 is the reverse insertion block; 6 is the elastic block; and 7 is the snap-fit ​​block. Detailed Implementation

[0010] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0011] like Figure 1 As shown, this light strip includes a main body with a controller, a splitter, a connector, and a plug. The splitter can branch the light strip into multiple branch strips. The controller consists of a main control body 1 with an insertion hole and an insertion block 2 with an insertion strip. The main control body 1 has a reverse insertion unit 1 on its end face at the insertion hole, which connects to and cooperates with the insertion block 2 to prevent reverse insertion. The connector consists of a connecting body 3 with a connecting hole and a connecting block 4 with a connecting strip. The connecting body 3 also has a reverse insertion unit 2 on its end face at the connecting hole, which connects to and cooperates with the connecting block 4 to prevent reverse insertion. The reverse insertion unit 1 includes two reverse insertion blocks 5 located outside the insertion hole. The connecting end face of the insertion block 2 and the main control body 1 has two axially inwardly recessed mounting grooves for mounting the corresponding reverse insertion blocks 5. The outer peripheral wall of the insertion block 2 at the mounting groove has a connection point for mounting the reverse insertion blocks 5. Furthermore, a locking block is provided to engage with the corresponding reverse insertion block 5. The reverse insertion unit two includes two elastic blocks 6 and two locking blocks 7, which are respectively disposed on the two side walls of the connector. The two elastic blocks 6 are respectively disposed on the connecting body 3 and the connecting block 4, and are arranged in opposite directions. The two locking blocks 7 are also respectively disposed on the connecting body 3 and the connecting block 4. Each elastic block 6 has a hook portion that engages with the locking block 7. The locking block 7 has a right-angled triangular structure. When the connector is assembled, the elastic blocks 6 on the connecting body 3 and the locking blocks 7 on the connecting block 4 form a locking engagement, and the elastic blocks 6 on the connecting block 4 also engage with the locking blocks 7 on the connecting body 3. The elastic blocks 6 can be connected to the connecting body 3 and the connecting block 4 through a connecting part, which leaves a gap between the elastic blocks 6 and the corresponding connecting body 3 and connecting block 4, thus facilitating the locking engagement.

[0012] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.

[0013] Although this document uses terms such as "etc." extensively, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. These terms are used merely for the convenience of describing and explaining the essence of this invention; interpreting them as any additional limitation would contradict the spirit of this invention.
