Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of neon waterproof light strip technology, and in particular to an outdoor silicone neon waterproof light strip with double sealing. Background Technology

[0002] Neon waterproof light strips are flexible lighting products that use LEDs as the light source, simulate the visual effect of traditional glass neon lights, and have waterproof protection capabilities. While retaining the advantages of traditional neon lights such as uniform light emission, bright colors, and customizable shapes, they solve the pain points of traditional neon lights, such as fragility, high energy consumption, lack of waterproofing, and short lifespan. Neon waterproof light strips are needed for temporary outdoor exhibitions.

[0003] In existing technologies, neon waterproof light strips are usually installed by double-sealing both ends with glue. However, this method is not easy to operate when disassembling light strips for temporary use and may damage the light strips, resulting in a decrease in sealing performance when they are reused, thus affecting the performance of the light strips. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides an outdoor silicone neon waterproof light strip with double sealing, which aims to improve the problem that it is not easy to disassemble the light strip when it is used temporarily, and it will damage the light strip, resulting in a decrease in sealing when it is used again, which will affect the performance of the light strip.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an outdoor silicone neon waterproof light strip with double sealing, comprising a silicone lampshade, a light strip body slidably connected inside the silicone lampshade, grooves at both ends of the light strip body, an edge-enclosing airbag installed in the groove of the light strip body, an inflation nozzle fixedly connected to one side of the edge-enclosing airbag, a cap plug threaded to the top of the inflation nozzle, a plug and a tail plug respectively installed on both sides of the light strip body, square grooves opened on the inner walls of the plug and the tail plug, the tops of the two inflation nozzles slidably connected in the plug and the tail plug respectively, and a limiting component installed on the top of the silicone lampshade.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the airbag around the edge is inflated through the inflation nozzle. After the airbag expands, it fits tightly into the inside of the groove with its own pressure. Then, the inflation nozzle is covered with a cap, thus achieving a double seal at both ends of the light strip. Simply deflate the airbag through the inflation nozzle, and the airbag returns to its flat shape, making it easy to separate the components without damaging the sealing structure. This reduces maintenance costs and improves the problem that it is difficult to disassemble the light strip when it is used temporarily, and that it may damage the light strip, resulting in a decrease in sealing performance when it is used again, which affects the performance of the light strip.

[0007] Preferably, the outer wall of the perimeter airbag is symmetrically fixed with silicone protrusions, and the outer wall of the silicone protrusions is in contact with the inner wall of the square groove.

[0008] Preferably, the limiting component includes two positioning plates, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the silicone lampshade. A limiting plate is slidably connected inside the positioning plate, and a locking screw is threadedly connected to one end of the limiting plate. The bottom of the locking screw abuts against the bottom side of the positioning plate, and one side of each of the two positioning plates contacts the end cap and the end plug, respectively.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom side of the silicone lampshade is symmetrically fixedly connected with slide rails, and transparent lenses are slidably connected inside the two slide rails.

[0010] Preferably, a wire is fixedly connected to one side of the light strip body, and a wire hole is provided on one side of the plug, with the outer wall of the wire slidably connected inside the wire hole.

[0011] Preferably, half the height of the inflated edge airbag is equal to the depth of the groove.

[0012] Preferably, the length of the transparent lens is less than or equal to the length of the silicone lampshade.

[0013] Preferably, one end of the plug and the tail plug are respectively installed at both ends of the silicone lamp cover, and the inner wall of the plug and the tail plug are in contact with the outer wall of the silicone lamp cover.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. In this utility model, the airbag around the edge is inflated through the inflation nozzle. After the airbag expands, it fits tightly into the inside of the groove with its own pressure. Then, the inflation nozzle is covered with a cap, thus achieving a double seal on both ends of the light strip. This effectively prevents moisture from entering the inside of the light strip, greatly improving the waterproof capability of the light strip and ensuring that the light strip can operate stably in various harsh outdoor environments, extending the service life of the light strip. Simply deflate the airbag through the inflation nozzle to restore its flat shape, and the components can be easily separated without damaging the sealing structure, reducing maintenance costs.

[0016] 2. In this utility model, after the edge airbag expands, it penetrates into the square groove inside the end cap and tail plug, making close contact with the inner wall of the square groove. Moreover, half of the height of the edge airbag after expansion is equal to the depth of the groove. After the expanded edge airbag fills the groove, it will further penetrate into the square groove, making the silicone protrusion fit more tightly with the inside of the square groove, further enhancing the sealing effect, preventing moisture from seeping in from tiny gaps, and also enhancing the stability of the overall structure of the light strip.

[0017] 3. In this utility model, by pushing the limiting plate, one end of the two limiting plates moves towards the plug and the tail plug respectively until the plug and the tail plug are in close contact with the outer side of the silicone lamp cover. Then, by rotating the locking screw, the bottom of the locking screw gradually moves downward until it abuts against the inner wall of the bottom side of the positioning plate. The position of the limiting plate in the positioning plate is fixed by the friction of the thread, thereby stably fixing the plug and the tail plug at both ends of the silicone lamp cover.

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-4 An embodiment of this utility model provides an outdoor silicone neon waterproof light strip with double sealing, including a silicone lampshade 1. A light strip body 2 is slidably connected inside the silicone lampshade 1. Both ends of the light strip body 2 have grooves 201. An edge airbag 202 is installed in the groove 201 of the light strip body 2. An inflation nozzle 204 is fixedly connected to one side of the edge airbag 202. A cap 205 is threadedly connected to the top of the inflation nozzle 204. A plug 206 and a tail plug 207 are respectively installed on both sides of the light strip body 2. A square groove 208 is opened on the inner wall of the plug 206 and the tail plug 207. The tops of the two inflation nozzles 204 are slidably connected in the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 respectively. A limit component is installed on the top of the silicone lampshade 1.

[0028] Specifically, the uninflated edge airbag 202 is inserted into the grooves 201 at both ends of the light strip body 2, ensuring that the edge airbag 202 fits against the inner wall of the groove 201. Then, the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 are respectively fitted onto the outer sides of both ends of the light strip body 2, allowing the top of the inflation nozzle 204 to slide through to the outer side of the top of the plug 206 and the tail plug 207. Inflation is then performed through the outer inflation nozzle 204 into the edge airbag 202, causing the edge airbag 202 to gradually expand until its outer wall completely fits against the inner wall of the groove 201. With a tight fit, after inflation, the one-way valve on the inflation nozzle 204 automatically closes to achieve a preliminary seal. Then, the cap 205 is threaded onto the top of the inflation nozzle 204 to form a secondary seal. By sealing both ends of the light strip body 2, a double seal is achieved. When it is necessary to disassemble the light strip body 2, simply release the air through the inflation nozzle 204, and the edge airbag 202 will return to its flat shape, making it easy to separate the components without damaging the sealing structure. This greatly simplifies the maintenance process and reduces maintenance costs.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-4 The outer wall of the edge airbag 202 is symmetrically fixed with silicone protrusions 203, and the outer wall of the silicone protrusions 203 is in contact with the inner wall of the square groove 208. Half of the height of the edge airbag 202 after inflation is equal to the depth of the groove 201.

[0030] Specifically, after the edge airbag 202 expands, it penetrates into the square groove 208 inside the end cap 206 and the tail plug 207, making close contact with the inner wall of the square groove 208. Moreover, half the height of the edge airbag 202 after expansion is equal to the depth of the groove 201. After the expanded edge airbag 202 fills the groove 201, it will further penetrate into the square groove 208, making the silicone protrusion 203 fit more tightly with the inside of the square groove 208, further enhancing the sealing effect, preventing moisture from seeping in from tiny gaps, and also enhancing the stability of the overall structure of the light strip.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-4The limiting assembly includes two positioning plates 3, the bottoms of which are fixedly connected to the top of the silicone lampshade 1. A limiting plate 301 is slidably connected inside the positioning plates 3. A locking screw 302 is threadedly connected to one end of the limiting plate 301, with the bottom of the locking screw 302 abutting against the bottom side of the positioning plate 3. One side of each positioning plate 3 contacts one side of the plug 206 and the tail plug 207, respectively. One end of the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 are respectively installed at both ends of the silicone lampshade 1, with the inner walls of the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 contacting the outer wall of the silicone lampshade 1.

[0032] Specifically, by pushing the limiting plate 301, one end of the two limiting plates 301 moves towards the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 respectively, until the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 are in close contact with the outer side of the silicone lamp cover 1. Then, by rotating the locking screw 302, the bottom of the locking screw 302 gradually moves downward until it abuts against the bottom inner wall of the positioning plate 3. The position of the limiting plate 301 in the positioning plate 3 is fixed by the thread friction, thereby stably fixing the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 to both ends of the silicone lamp cover 1.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 A slide rail 4 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom side of the silicone lampshade 1, and a transparent lens 401 is slidably connected inside the two slide rails 4. The length of the transparent lens 401 is less than or equal to the length of the silicone lampshade 1. A wire 501 is fixedly connected to one side of the light strip body 2, and a wire hole 5 is opened on one side of the plug 206. The outer wall of the wire 501 is slidably connected inside the wire hole 5.

[0034] Specifically, align the transparent lens 401 with the slide rail 4 and slide it along the length of the slide rail 4 until the transparent lens 401 completely covers the bottom opening of the silicone lampshade 1. Since the length of the transparent lens 401 is less than or equal to the length of the silicone lampshade 1, the two ends of the transparent lens 401 will not exceed the range of the silicone lampshade 1, which avoids the edge of the lens being exposed and damaged, and can completely cover the internal light strip body 2, blocking external dust, debris and physical collisions from directly acting on the light strip body 2.

[0035] Then, the outer wall of the wire 501 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the wire hole 5; after the wire 501 passes through the wire hole 5, it can be connected to an external power supply or control device. The diameter of the wire hole 5 matches the outer diameter of the wire 501 to ensure that the wire 501 will not shake randomly during installation and use and will remain in an orderly arrangement.

[0036] Working principle: The uninflated edge airbag 202 is embedded into the grooves 201 at both ends of the light strip body 2, fitting against the inner wall of the groove 201. The plug 206 and the tail plug 207 are placed on the outer sides of both ends of the light strip body 2, so that the top of the inflation nozzle 204 extends to the outer top of both. The edge airbag 202 is inflated through the inflation nozzle 204 until its outer wall fits against the inner wall of the groove 201. After inflation, the one-way valve closes, and the cap 205 is threaded onto the top of the inflation nozzle 204. After the edge airbag 202 expands, it penetrates into the square groove 208 of the plug 206 and the tail plug 207, and the silicone protrusion 203 fits against the inner wall of the square groove 208. Push the limiting plate 301 inside the positioning plate 3, causing one end of the limiting plate 301 to move towards the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 until the plug 206 and the tail plug 207 contact the outside of the silicone lampshade 1. Secure the limiting plate 301 with the locking screw 302, thereby securing the plug 206 and the tail plug 207. Align the transparent lens 401 with the slide rail 4 on the bottom side of the silicone lampshade 1 and push it in along the length of the slide rail 4 until it completely covers the bottom opening of the silicone lampshade 1. The wire 501 passes through the wire hole 5 and connects to an external power source or control device.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
