Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a gantry light for aquarium viewing, and more particularly to a structural design that integrates an LED light assembly with a heat sink. This design aims to provide an efficient and convenient installation method, while also offering excellent heat dissipation and waterproofing. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, traditional aquarium lighting equipment typically requires separate purchase of lamp holders and lamp assemblies, leading to time-consuming and cumbersome installation. Furthermore, lamp assemblies of varying quality often suffer from poor heat dissipation and waterproofing, resulting in short lamp lifespans and high maintenance costs. Therefore, a new type of aquarium lighting equipment is needed that offers convenient installation and excellent heat dissipation and waterproofing performance. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gantry light for aquarium viewing that is easy to install, has good heat dissipation and waterproof performance, and overcomes the shortcomings of the above-mentioned technology.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model designs a gantry light for aquarium viewing, including an LED light assembly. The gantry light also includes a heat sink, which has heat dissipation fins on its upper surface. The LED light-emitting panels are in close contact with the lower surface of the heat sink, forming direct thermal contact. A cooling fan is located above the heat sink. This design effectively and quickly conducts the heat generated by the LED light-emitting panels to the heat sink and heat dissipation fins, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency. The cooling fan above the heat sink accelerates airflow over its surface, carrying away heat more quickly and further enhancing the heat dissipation effect. This ensures the temperature of the LED light-emitting panels remains within a safe range while extending their lifespan. The above components are integrated into the heat sink, forming the main working structure of the gantry light and improving the product's lifespan.

[0005] A further design involves connecting support legs to both ends of the heat sink frame via connectors, with cylinder wall clamps mounted on the support legs. The lower ends of the connectors are bolted to the support legs. The support legs are then bolted to the cylinder wall clamps. These structural components combine with the heat sink frame to form a robust gantry support structure.

[0006] A further improvement involves placing the LED light assembly below the heat sink, comprising an LED light-emitting sheet, a sealing ring, a lens retaining ring, and a lens, with the sealing ring preferably made of silicone. The sealing ring covers the LED light-emitting sheet, and the lens is embedded in an annular groove on the inner wall of the sealing ring. The outer ring of the sealing ring and the lens retaining ring are press-fitted together to form a waterproof structure, and the assembly is fixed to the heat sink with bolts, forming a sealed optical component. This design ensures the waterproof performance of the LED light assembly, allowing it to operate stably and safely in the humid environment of the aquarium.

[0007] A further improvement is that the upper surface of the heat sink frame also features an integrally formed first profile cavity. A nut is installed within the first profile cavity, and the cooling fan is fixed to the heat sink frame via bolts and the nut. The cooling fan also has a fan cover bolted to the heat sink frame. This structure reliably secures the fan and fan cover to the heat sink frame. The fan cover ensures that when the gantry light is operating, foreign objects and insects attracted by the light will not interfere with the normal operation of the cooling fan, thus extending its lifespan.

[0008] A further improvement is that the upper surface of the heat sink also features a second profile cavity integrally formed. A connector is inserted into this second profile cavity, and the connector is fixed within the cavity via an elongated hole and a bolt. When the bolts securing the connector are not tightened, the connector can slide within the second profile cavity through its elongated hole, thus achieving stepless adjustment of the overall span of the gantry frame.

[0009] A further improvement is to use connectors at both ends of the heat sink bracket to be bolted to the support legs, which are then fixed to the cylinder wall via elongated holes on their sides. This fixing method is simple, inexpensive, stable, and durable.

[0010] A further solution is to fix the cylinder wall clamp to the support bracket via bolts in the elongated holes on the side of the support bracket. By changing the relative position of the cylinder wall clamp bolts in the elongated holes on the side of the support bracket, the overall height of the gantry light can be infinitely adjusted.

[0011] A further solution is to have screw holes on the tank wall clamp, with anti-slip rubber pads inside. The bolts are tightened through the tank wall clamp, causing the anti-slip rubber pads to deform and clamp the aquarium walls of different thicknesses, so that the gantry light can be stably installed on the aquarium.

[0012] A further improvement is that the heat sink, serving as the main body of the entire gantry light fixture, is a single, integrally molded profile. This one-piece molding process ensures the strength of the heat sink while also saving costs.

[0013] This utility model provides a gantry light for aquarium viewing, the core of which lies in the integrated design of the LED light assembly and the heat sink. This design not only improves installation efficiency but also ensures long-term stable operation of the equipment through a reliable heat dissipation structure and waterproof measures.

[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] Example 1.

[0023] like Figure 1 ,like Figure 2As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a gantry light for aquarium viewing, including an LED light assembly. The gantry light also includes a heat sink 3, which serves as the main body of the entire gantry light and can be a single integrally molded profile. Using an integrally molded profile ensures the strength of the heat sink 3 while saving costs. The heat sink 3 may also include heat dissipation fins 31, a first profile cavity 32, and a second profile cavity 33 disposed on the upper surface of the heat sink 3. The LED light assembly includes an LED light-emitting sheet 11, a sealing ring 7, a lens fixing ring 8, and a lens 9. The sealing ring is preferably made of silicone. The LED light-emitting sheet 11 is in close contact with the lower surface of the heat sink 3, forming direct thermal contact. This design effectively conducts the heat generated by the LED light-emitting sheet 11 to the heat sink 3, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency. Simultaneously, a cooling fan 2 is provided above the heat sink 3. The cooling fan 2 above the heat sink 3 accelerates the airflow within the cavity of the heat sink 3, carrying away the heat from the heat sink 3 more quickly, further improving the heat dissipation effect, ensuring that the temperature of the LED light-emitting sheet 11 remains within a safe range while extending the lifespan of the LED light-emitting sheet 11. The above-mentioned components are integrated on the heat sink 3, forming the main working structure of the gantry lamp and improving the product's service life.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the control module 10 located at the bottom of the second profile cavity 33 controls the LED light-emitting sheet 11 through the internal wiring of the heat sink 3, supports linkage with a mobile APP, and provides 16 million color RGB adjustment capability. The control module 10 can be purchased on the market and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] Example 2.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a gantry light for aquarium viewing. Based on embodiment 1, it further adds support legs 5 to both ends of the heat dissipation frame 3 via connectors 4 and bolts. The support legs 5 are equipped with tank wall clamps 6. Symmetrically arranged connectors 4 are inserted into the second profile cavity 33 and fixed within the cavity 33 via elongated holes and bolts. The lower end of the connector 4 is bolted to the support legs 5. The support legs 5 are bolted to the tank wall clamps 6 via elongated holes on their sides. These structural components combine with the heat dissipation frame 3 to form a robust gantry support structure.

[0027] Example 3.

[0028] like Figure 2As shown, this embodiment provides a gantry light for aquarium viewing. Based on embodiment 1, the LED light assembly is positioned below the heat sink 3. A sealing ring 7 covers the LED light-emitting sheet 11, and a lens 9 is embedded in the annular groove on the inner wall of the sealing ring 7. The outer ring of the sealing ring 7 and the lens fixing ring 8 are interference-fitted to form a waterproof structure, and the assembly is fixed to the bottom of the heat sink 3 with bolts, forming a completely sealed optical component. This design ensures the waterproof performance of the LED light assembly, allowing it to work stably and safely in the humid environment of the aquarium.

[0029] Example 4.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a gantry light for aquarium viewing. A nut 12 is provided inside the first profile cavity 32. The cooling fan 2 is fixed to the heat dissipation frame 3 by bolts and the nut 12. A fan cover 1, also bolted to the heat dissipation frame 3, covers the cooling fan 2. This structure reliably fixes the cooling fan 2 and fan cover 1 to the heat dissipation frame 3. The fan cover 1 ensures that when the gantry light is working, foreign objects and insects attracted by the light will not interfere with the normal operation of the cooling fan 2, thus extending the service life of the cooling fan 2.

[0031] Example 5.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown in the illustration, this embodiment provides a gantry light for aquarium viewing, in which the connector 4 is fixed within the second profile cavity 33 through a bolt fitted with an elongated hole. The connector 4 can slide within the second profile cavity 33 through its elongated hole without the bolt being tightened, thereby achieving stepless adjustment of the overall span of the gantry light to accommodate aquariums of different sizes.

[0033] Example 6.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown in the illustration, this embodiment provides a gantry light for aquarium viewing. The connectors 4 at both ends of the heat sink 3 are bolted to the support legs 5. The support legs 5 are fixedly connected to the tank wall clamp 6 via elongated holes on their sides. This fixing method is simple, inexpensive, stable, and durable.

[0035] Example 7.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a gantry light for viewing aquariums, wherein the tank wall clamp 6 can be vertically slid in the elongated hole on the side of the support leg 5 by bolts, so as to realize stepless adjustment of the overall height of the gantry light.

[0037] Example 8.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a gantry light for viewing aquariums. The tank wall clamp 6 has screw holes and an anti-slip rubber pad 61 inside. The bolts are tightened through the tank wall clamp 6, causing the anti-slip rubber pad 61 to deform and clamp the aquarium walls of different thicknesses, so that the gantry light can be stably installed on the aquarium.

[0039] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that it integrates the LED light assembly with the heat sink 3, improving the ease of installation for users. The integrated design shortens the heat conduction path, providing efficient heat dissipation and extending the lifespan of the LED light-emitting sheet 11. The interference fit between the outer ring of the sealing ring 7 and the lens fixing ring 8 ensures the waterproof performance of the LED light assembly, allowing it to operate stably and safely in the humid environment of the aquarium. By loosening the bolts of the fixing connector 4, the connector 4 can slide within the second profile cavity 33 to adjust the overall span of the gantry frame. By loosening the bolts of the fixing cylinder wall clamp 6, the overall height of the gantry frame can be adjusted. By tightening the bolts of the side oblong hole fixing cylinder wall clamp 6, the anti-slip rubber pad 61 deforms, thereby fixing aquarium walls of different thicknesses.
