Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of light trough edge frame technology, specifically a light trough edge frame for a suspended ceiling. Background Technology

[0002] A suspended ceiling is a decorative component located on the lower surface of a building's floor or roof. It is also called a ceiling, ceiling, or ceiling structure. It is a type of decoration that involves decorating, installing, and covering the ceiling space of an existing building.

[0003] The edge ribs of the ceiling light trough provide a stable support structure for the light trough, ensuring the stability of its shape and position. They also connect and fix the light trough to other parts of the ceiling, making the entire ceiling system more robust. The edge ribs can be customized in various shapes and sizes according to design requirements, creating different styles of light trough designs, adding decorative effects to the ceiling, and enhancing the overall aesthetics of the space. However, currently, the edge ribs of pendant lights typically use threaded connections. Threaded connections require manual support, leading to inconvenient installation. There is a lack of pre-installation devices to ensure the edge ribs remain stable before installation and to provide auxiliary fixing.

[0004] In view of this, we propose a light trough edge rib for suspended ceilings. Utility Model Content

[0030] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0031] A light trough edge bracket for a suspended ceiling includes a wall 1, a ceiling 2 fixedly installed on the top of the wall 1, and an edge bracket body 3 fixedly installed on the side wall of the wall 1.

[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, a fixing component 4 is provided on the side bone body 3. The fixing component 4 includes a slot 41. The slot 41 is provided on the side wall of the wall 1. The slot 41 has a locking interface 42 inside. A shell 43 is fixedly installed on one end of the side bone body 3 near the side wall of the wall 1. An S-shaped plate 44 is fixedly installed inside the shell 43. A vertical plate 45 is fixedly installed inside the S-shaped plate 44. A sliding rod 46 is slidably installed in the center of the vertical plate 45. The sliding rod 46 passes through the S-shaped plate 44 and the vertical plate 45. A limiting post 47 is fixedly installed inside the 46. A spring 48 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the S-shaped plate 44. The other end of the spring 48 is fixedly connected to the limiting post 47. A snap-fit ​​connector 49 is fixedly installed on the end of the limiting post 47 near the vertical plate 45. The snap-fit ​​connector 49 is snap-fitted into the inside of the snap-fit ​​interface 42. Multiple sets of snap-fit ​​slots 41 are provided. Multiple sets of vertical plate 45, sliding rod 46, limiting post 47, spring 48 and snap-fit ​​connector 49 are provided. The snap-fit ​​interface 42 fits into the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​connector 49. The outer shell 43 and the snap-fit ​​slot 41 have the same shape and size.

[0033] In this embodiment, the construction worker needs to precisely align the outer shell 43 with the pre-cut slot 41 in the wall 1. When the construction worker applies a pushing force towards the wall 1 to the side frame body 3, the snap connector 49 begins to slide in along the inner wall of the snap interface 42. During the insertion process, the snap connector 49 will be subjected to an inward squeezing force from the snap interface 42. This force is transmitted along the snap connector 49 to the connected slide rod 46. The slide rod 46 has a sliding structure at the center of the vertical plate 45. Under the squeezing force, the slide rod 46 begins to slide inward along the sliding channel of the vertical plate 45. The sliding of the slide rod 46 drives the limiting post 47 to move synchronously. As the slide rod 46 moves, the limiting post 47 gradually compresses the spring 48. The spring 48 was originally in a naturally extended state. When compressed, its elastic potential energy As the process continues, once the snap-fit ​​connector 49 has fully slid into the snap-fit ​​interface 42 and reached the predetermined position, the snap-fit ​​connector 49 is no longer subjected to the squeezing force of the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​interface 42. The elastic potential energy of the spring 48 is released, and the restoring force generated by the spring 48 is transmitted to the slide rod 46 and the snap-fit ​​connector 49 through the limiting post 47, pushing the snap-fit ​​connector 49 towards the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​interface 42, so that the snap-fit ​​connector 49 is snapped into the inside of the snap-fit ​​interface 42, realizing the snap-fit ​​between the side frame body 3 and the wall 1. This creates multiple connection points between the side frame body 3 and the wall 1, and each connection point is connected through the above-mentioned snap-fit ​​principle, enhancing the overall stability of the connection between the side frame body 3 and the wall 1. Subsequently, construction personnel can adjust the position of the light trough side frame and perform the final fixing operation while the side frame is in the pre-installation state, effectively improving the installation efficiency.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, a connecting component 5 is provided on the side bone body 3. The connecting component 5 includes a first expansion screw 51. The side bone body 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the wall 1 by the first expansion screw 51. The side bone body 3 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the ceiling 2 by the second expansion screw 52. Both the wall 1 and the ceiling 2 are provided with mounting grooves 53. The first expansion screw 51 and the second expansion screw 52 are threadedly engaged on the mounting grooves 53.

[0035] In this embodiment, after pre-installation, the construction personnel pass the first expansion screw 51 through the corresponding mounting hole on the side frame body 3 and thread it into the mounting groove 53. As the first expansion screw 51 is screwed in, its tail expansion portion gradually opens, generating a tight friction and compression force with the inner wall of the mounting groove 53, thereby fixing the side frame body 3 to the side wall of the wall 1. Then, the second expansion screw 52 is passed through the corresponding mounting hole on the side frame body 3 and screwed into the mounting groove 53 of the ceiling 2. As the second expansion screw 52 is inserted, its tail expands and squeezes the inner wall of the mounting groove 53, forming a firm connection and fixing the side frame body 3 to the ceiling 2.

[0036] All standard parts used in this application can be purchased from the market. The specific connection methods of each part are all conventional methods such as riveting and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment are all conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
