Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of LED light strip technology, specifically to a light strip adapter. Background Technology

[0002] LED light strips are products made by mounting LED light-emitting diodes (LEDs) onto a strip-shaped flexible printed circuit board (FPC) or PCB. These strips are long-lasting, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly, and are widely used in various decorative industries. During installation, LED light strips can be cut to the required length. The outer insulation layer of the circuit board is removed, and leads are soldered to the power control box using a soldering iron.

[0003] The cuttable nature of LED light strips makes them more flexible in installation and use, especially for flexible LED light strips. In some outdoor construction sites, welding facilities are often unavailable, particularly during subsequent maintenance. When some LED chips on the light strip are damaged, cutting and replacing the damaged section is very inconvenient. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a connector that can solve the installation and splicing maintenance problems of light strips in a universal and compatible way. Utility Model Content

[0016] The technical solution of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a light strip adapter, comprising a main body 1, wherein a piezoelectric groove 11 is provided inside the main body 1, the piezoelectric groove 11 being open through the upper end face of the main body 1, and an insertion port 12 through the piezoelectric groove 11 is provided on the side wall of the main body 1; two contact pieces 2 are provided inside the piezoelectric groove 11, and a fixing block 13 is provided inside the upper port of the main body 1, the fixing block 13 being embedded in the piezoelectric groove 11 to be paired with the contact pieces 2; and two wiring terminals 3 are provided on the main body 1 to be paired with the contact pieces 2. Specifically, the present invention is mainly used for rigid light strips, with... Figure 1From a forward view, the cut end of the LED strip can be inserted laterally into the piezoelectric groove 11 through the socket 12, and the fixing block 13 is inserted vertically from the upper port of the main body 1, pressing the LED strip and fixing it to the main body 1. Furthermore, the terminal block 3 can be equipped with its own wire, allowing the LED strip to be connected to a power source via the wire. Alternatively, during installation or maintenance, the terminal block 3 can be connected to another terminal block 3 via a wire to connect two LED strips, or the damaged part of the LED strip can be cut off to repair circuit faults in the LED strip.

[0018] It is understood that the fixing block 13 abuts against the contact piece 2, forming an interference fit. To improve the tightness of the connection between the fixing block 13 and the contact piece 2, an anti-slip protruding structure, including textures, dot matrix, and spikes, can be provided on the bottom surface of the fixing block 13. It is understood that... Figure 1 The cross-sectional view of this utility model only shows one of the contact pieces 2. This utility model has at least two contact pieces 2 to form a neutral wire and a live wire. Specifically, the two contact pieces 2 are spaced apart from each other, and the contact pieces 2 are fixedly connected to the piezoelectric groove 11. The upper edge of the contact piece 2 is provided with several perforated teeth 21. The perforated teeth 21 can pierce the lamp strip substrate, so that the contact piece 2 can make contact electrical connection with the inner circuit of the lamp strip.

[0019] The bottom surface of the piezoelectric groove 11 is provided with a limiting rail groove 14 and at least one positioning slot 15. At least one limiting card 22 is provided on the lower edge of the contact piece 2. The lower edge of the contact piece 2 is inserted into the limiting rail groove 14, and the limiting card 22 is inserted into the positioning slot 15. The piezoelectric groove 11 is provided with a limiting rail groove 14, and the contact piece 2 is partially inserted into the limiting rail groove 14 at an angle. At least one limiting card 22 is inserted into the corresponding positioning slot 15 to prevent the contact piece 2 from sliding. Furthermore, the teeth 21 on the contact piece 2 engage with the light strip to prevent the light strip from sliding out of the socket 12.

[0020] Specifically, the inner wall of the upper port of the main body 1 is provided with several latches 17, which are snapped onto the fixing block 13 to fix it in place within the piezoelectric groove 11. The latches 17 can be protruding structures, extending from the inner wall of the upper port of the main body 1. The fixing block 13 can pass through the latches 17 and be inserted into the piezoelectric groove 11, pressing the LED strip to engage with the teeth 21. It is understood that the fixing block 13 is forced through the latches 17 by deformation. Once the fixing block 13 is inserted into place, the latches 17 can lock the fixing block 13 within the piezoelectric groove 11. Furthermore, conventional structures such as threads and latches can be provided between the fixing block 13 and the inner wall of the main body 1, as long as the fixing block 13 can tightly connect the LED strip and the contact piece 2.

[0021] The bottom surface of the piezoelectric groove 11 is provided with a channel opening 16, which connects the piezoelectric groove 11 and the terminal block 3. The lower edge of the contact piece 2 is provided with an extension 23, which passes through the channel opening 16 and extends into the terminal block 3. The contact piece 2 extends into the terminal block 3 through the extension 23 and connects with the wire to form an electrical connection.

[0022] Specifically, the first end of the terminal block 3 is fixedly connected to the main body 1, and the second end of the terminal block 3 is open. The extension 23 is provided with a spring 24, and the terminal block 3 is provided with a button 31. The button 31 is connected to the spring 24 via a push rod 32. The terminal block 3 is used for quick connection of wires, thereby improving installation efficiency. After the button 31 pushes the spring 24 via the push rod 32, the wire is inserted from the second end of the terminal block 3. Releasing the button then allows the spring 24 to snap into place with the wire, thus achieving an electrical connection.

[0023] Preferably, the contact plate 2, the extension 23 and the elastic spring 24 are integrally stamped structures, which are easier to process and have lower costs.

[0024] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
