[0021] Example
[0022] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a solar lamp for outdoor use, including a lamp holder 1 with a lighting lamp 11 mounted on it, a lamp cover 2, and a folding support mechanism. The lamp cover 2 is made of a flexible transparent material and is cubic in shape. One side wall of the lamp cover 2 has an installation opening 21 for the lighting lamp 11 to be inserted. The side of the lamp cover 2 with the installation opening 21 is detachably connected to the lamp holder 1 through a connecting mechanism. The folding support mechanism includes four sets of folding support components 3 disposed on the side wall of the lamp holder 1 opposite to the lamp cover 2. The four sets of folding support components 3 are located at the four corners inside the lamp cover 2 and are arranged around the center of the lamp holder 1. The folding support components 3 include: two hinge seats 31, symmetrically fixed on the lamp holder 1; a damping shaft 32, rotatably connected between the two hinge seats 31; and a support rod 33, one end of which is fixed to the damping shaft 32.
[0023] In this embodiment, when carrying the solar lamp in the field, the support rods 33 in the four sets of foldable support components 3 are in a horizontally retracted state. Since the lampshade 2 is made of a flexible transparent material, it can be folded and compressed to reduce the overall volume and make it easy to carry. When lighting is needed, the lamp holder 1 is first separated from the lampshade 2 through the connecting mechanism, and then the four sets of foldable support components 3 on the lamp holder 1 are opened. Specifically, the four support rods 33 are rotated to a vertical state in sequence through the damping shaft 32. The damping shaft 32 can achieve the function of positioning after rotation, keeping the position of the support rods 33 unchanged. Then, the support rods 33 are inserted into the lampshade 2 through the mounting port 21. The four support rods 33 support the four corners of the top surface of the lampshade 2, making it cubic in shape, thus providing convenient outdoor lighting.
[0024] In order to improve the connection performance of the support rod 33 supporting the lamp cover 2 and to enable quick positioning, a magnet 41 is fixed at the end of each support rod 33 away from the damping pivot 32, and an iron block 42 is fixed at each of the four corners of the inner top surface of the lamp cover 2. Through the cooperation of the magnet 41 and the iron block 42, the stretched support rod 33 can be connected to the top corner of the lamp cover 2 by magnetic attraction, so as to prevent it from falling off. When disassembling the magnetic attraction structure, you only need to pull the support rod 33 and the lamp cover 2 apart by hand.
[0025] In another embodiment of this utility model, in order to adjust the height of the lampshade 2 after it is opened or to adapt to lampshades 2 of different sizes, the support rod 33 is a telescopic rod, including an outer tube 331 and an inner rod 332. The lower end of the outer tube 331 is fixed to the damping shaft 32, the lower end of the inner rod 332 is slidably connected to the inside of the outer tube 331, the upper end of the inner rod 332 is fixed to the iron block 42, and a threaded hole is provided on the side wall of the outer tube 331, and an adjusting bolt 333 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole.
[0026] With the above settings, after the support rod 33 is rotated to a vertical position, the inner rod 332 can be pulled out from the outer tube 331 by loosening the adjusting bolt 333 to adjust the overall height of the support rod 33, thereby adjusting the height change of the support lamp cover 2. After adjustment, the adjusting bolt 333 is tightened, and the end of the adjusting bolt 333 abuts against the side wall of the inner rod 332, locking the height by friction.
[0027] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, in order to facilitate the folding of the lampshade 2, the lampshade 2 includes a first cover 201 and a second cover 202. The shape of the first cover 201 and the shape of the second cover 202 are both frustum-shaped. In specific implementation, for aesthetic purposes, a regular frustum-shaped shape is preferred. The mounting opening 21 is opened at the bottom of the first cover 201, and the second cover 202 is symmetrically connected above the first cover 201. With the above arrangement, the lampshade 2 can be quickly folded inward from the connection between the first cover 201 and the second cover 202.
[0028] The lampshade 2 is made of flexible PVC material.
[0029] Specifically, the connecting mechanism includes four sets of connecting components, which are respectively set around the side wall of the lampshade 2 with the mounting port 21. The connecting components are Velcro, with hook surface 51 and rough surface 52. The hook surface 51 is fixed to the bottom of the lampshade 2. The lamp holder 1 has a strip-shaped opening 14 for the hook surface 51 to pass through, and the rough surface 52 is fixed to the side wall of the lamp holder 1.
[0030] In this embodiment, four sets of Velcro are used as the connecting mechanism, which can connect the lampshade 2 to the lamp holder 1. When connecting, simply pass the hook surface 51 provided at the bottom of the lampshade 2 through the strip opening 14, and then fasten the hook surface 51 to the rough surface 52 on the side wall of the lamp holder 1. The disassembly process is very convenient.
[0031] In another embodiment of this utility model, a solar panel 12 and a controller 13 are embedded in the bottom of the lamp holder 1, and a lighting lamp 11 is installed on the top of the lamp holder 1. The lighting lamp 11 is an LED lamp, and the controller 13 is electrically connected to the solar panel 12 and the lighting lamp 11 respectively.
[0032] In this embodiment, solar energy is utilized by solar panel 12. In cooperation with controller 13, solar energy is converted into current to power lighting lamp 11. Controller 13 modulates the LED drive current to control the voltage and form different lighting intensities, which is suitable for outdoor environments.
[0033] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and any variations that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
