Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a light-emitting glass door structure that facilitates LED maintenance and replacement. Background Technology

[0002] Commercial freezers typically require patterns to be silkscreened on their glass doors, illuminated by LED lights fixed to the edge of the glass. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the middle glass panel 1 is illuminated by LED lights 2 along its edge. These LED lights are positioned and fixed by a bracket. A pattern is silkscreened on the middle glass panel 1, and the pattern is displayed when the LED lights 2 are powered on. This solution has the following drawbacks: 1. Because the LED lights are fixed to the edge of the middle glass panel 1 with silicone adhesive, the amount of silicone adhesive used during production is very critical. Otherwise, excessive adhesive may obstruct the LED lights, affecting the display effect of the silkscreened pattern; 2. ... Figure 1 As shown, the LED lights are embedded inside the door. If the LED lights malfunction, it is difficult to replace them. Replacing them would require dismantling the entire door frame, which is difficult and costly. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a light-emitting glass door structure that facilitates LED maintenance and replacement, effectively solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is:

[0005] A light-emitting glass door structure that facilitates LED maintenance and replacement includes a frame body and an outer glass panel, a middle glass panel, and an inner glass panel, which are fixed to the frame body from the outside in. The inner glass panel is fixed to the inside by a cover plate. A central light groove is provided at the edge of the middle glass panel. The central light groove is closed by the frame body on the side facing the outer glass panel and the side away from the middle glass panel, and closed by the cover plate on the side facing the inner glass panel. A light outlet is provided on the side of the central light groove facing the middle glass panel, and an LED light is provided in the central light groove.

[0006] Preferably, the frame body and the cover plate are fastened together by a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0007] Preferably, the buckle structure includes a matching latch and a buckle, wherein the latch is located on the inner side of the frame body and the buckle is fixed on the outer side of the cover plate.

[0008] Preferably, the cover plate has an inner light groove at the edge of the inner glass, and the inner light groove has a light outlet on the side facing the inner glass, and an LED light is provided in the inner light groove.

[0009] Preferably, the front side of the LED light is the light-emitting direction, facing the light outlet, and the rear side is fixed with silicone adhesive.

[0010] The innovative points of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. Modular light trough design:

[0012] The luminous glass door structure features a central light groove along the edge of the middle glass panel and an inner light groove along the edge of the inner glass panel via a cover plate. This modular light groove design allows LED lights to be pre-installed in the light groove, avoiding the problems caused by directly fixing LED lights with silicone glue in traditional solutions. The opening direction of the light groove (light outlet) faces the glass, ensuring that the light can effectively illuminate the silkscreen pattern.

[0013] 2. Removable cover and snap-fit ​​structure:

[0014] The cover plate is fixed to the frame body by a snap-fit ​​structure (snap and snap), replacing the traditional glue or screw fixing method. This design allows the cover plate to be quickly removed without disassembling the entire door frame, thus simplifying the maintenance and replacement process of LED lights.

[0015] 3. Dual light trough configuration:

[0016] In addition to the central light groove of the middle glass, an inner light groove is added to the edge of the inner glass, further expanding the installation position and lighting range of the LED lights. This double light groove design allows the frame structure to be equipped with one or two sets of LED lights according to customer needs, meeting different lighting requirements of customers.

[0017] 4. Optimized LED fixing method:

[0018] The back of the LED light is fixed to the lamp trough with silicone glue, and the front faces the light outlet.

[0019] 5. Setting method of the middle light trough and the inner light trough:

[0020] The central light trough is located at the junction of the frame body and the cover plate, while the inner light trough is directly set on the cover plate. This gives the frame body and the cover plate a large width in both the inner and outer directions, which not only ensures the strength of the frame body but also facilitates the replacement of LED lights.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] 1. Simplify the production process:

[0023] The light trough design reduces the need for precise control of silicone sealant usage, lowers production difficulty and defect rate, and allows LED lights to be directly installed in the light trough, avoiding the impact of too much or too little sealant on the installation and lighting effect of the lamps.

[0024] 2. Easy to repair and replace:

[0025] The cover plate is fixed to the frame body by a snap-fit ​​structure, allowing maintenance personnel to quickly replace damaged LED lights without dismantling the entire door frame, significantly reducing maintenance costs and time;

[0026] 3. Improve lighting effects:

[0027] The light outlet of the light trough faces directly towards the glass, ensuring that the light shines evenly on the screen-printed pattern, avoiding the problems of glue blocking or light scattering in traditional solutions. The dual light trough design improves the flexibility of LED light settings and can meet the needs of different customers.

[0028] 4. Enhance structural stability:

[0029] The snap-fit ​​structure not only facilitates disassembly but also provides reliable mechanical fixation, ensuring a tight fit between the cover and the frame body and preventing loosening due to vibration or long-term use.

[0030] 5. Wide range of applications:

[0031] This structure can be widely used in commercial freezers, display cases and other scenarios that require illuminated glass doors, and is especially suitable for occasions with high requirements for ease of maintenance and lighting effects.

[0032] This utility model effectively solves the problems of high production difficulty and inconvenient maintenance caused by traditional LED fixing methods through innovative designs such as modular light troughs, detachable cover plates and buckle structures, while improving lighting effect and structural reliability.

[0047] This utility model's luminous glass door structure, through modular light troughs, detachable cover plates, and snap-fit ​​structures, achieves convenient installation, efficient maintenance, and stable lighting effects for LED lights. Its working principle can be divided into the following key parts:

[0048] 1. Installation and fixing of LED lights:

[0049] Light trough design:

[0050] The middle glass has a central light groove along its edge, and the inner glass has an inner light groove on its cover plate. The LED lights are directly installed in the light grooves and fixed at the back with silicone sealant. The front faces the light outlet. This design avoids the problem of difficult-to-control glue usage in traditional solutions, while ensuring that the light directly illuminates the silkscreen pattern on the glass, thus improving the lighting effect.

[0051] Dual light trough configuration:

[0052] The central and inner light troughs can be independently installed with LED lights, and users can choose single-sided or double-sided lighting according to their needs, offering high flexibility.

[0053] 2. The cover plate is removable:

[0054] Buckle structure:

[0055] The cover plate is fixed to the frame body by a matching structure of bayonet and buckle. The bayonet is opened on the inside of the frame body and the buckle is fixed on the outside of the cover plate. This design allows the cover plate to be quickly fastened or disassembled without tools or destructive operation.

[0056] Ease of maintenance:

[0057] When an LED light is damaged, simply press or pry the cover plate to release the clip structure and expose the LED light in the light trough for replacement. This eliminates the need to disassemble the entire door frame, significantly reducing repair time and costs.

[0058] 3. Optical path design and lighting effects:

[0059] Directional illumination of light outlet:

[0060] The light outlets of the middle light trough and the inner light trough face the middle glass and the inner glass respectively, ensuring that the LED light directly penetrates the glass and illuminates the silk screen pattern, avoiding light scattering or being blocked;

[0061] Dual light troughs working together:

[0062] Installing two sets of LED lights at the same time can enhance the overall brightness or achieve a layered lighting effect (for example, the inner layer is used for backlighting and the outer layer is used for highlighting patterns).

[0063] 4. Structural stability and sealing performance:

[0064] Closed design of frame and cover:

[0065] The multiple sides of the central light trough are respectively enclosed by the frame body and the cover plate, forming a stable installation space to prevent the LED lights from shifting or being damaged by external forces;

[0066] Silicone sealant for auxiliary fixation:

[0067] The LED lights are fixed to the back with silicone sealant, which ensures the stability of the lamp and prevents the sealant from overflowing and affecting the light output.

[0068] Workflow:

[0069] Installation phase:

[0070] Place the LED light into the middle or inner light slot and fix it with glue at the back.

[0071] Align the clips of the cover plate with the snaps of the frame body, press to engage, and complete the assembly;

[0072] Lighting stage:

[0073] After power is applied, the LED light beam shines through the light outlet onto the screen-printed area of ​​the glass, thus displaying the pattern.

[0074] Maintenance phase:

[0075] Remove the cover plate → replace the damaged LED light → re-fasten the cover plate; no other parts need to be disassembled throughout the process.

[0076] This utility model provides LED installation space through modular light troughs, enables quick maintenance with snap-on covers, and optimizes lighting effects with directional light outlets, while also taking into account structural stability and ease of production. Its core innovation lies in transforming the traditional integrated fixing method into a detachable modular design, solving industry pain points such as difficult LED maintenance and high production precision requirements.

[0077] Finally, it should be noted that the above examples are merely specific embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments and can have many variations. All variations that can be directly derived or conceived by those skilled in the art from the disclosure of this utility model should be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
