Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of downlight technology, specifically to a modularly designed embedded spotlight. Background Technology

[0002] A downlight is a light fixture with a screw-in lamp holder that can directly mount an incandescent or energy-saving bulb. Downlights are a type of lighting fixture that is embedded in the ceiling and emits light downwards.

[0003] Downlights are widely used in home decoration. Most existing downlights are one-piece units, meaning that if one part is damaged, it cannot be replaced or repaired, requiring the entire downlight to be replaced, resulting in waste. Therefore, to solve this problem, we propose a modularly designed recessed spotlight. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a modularly designed embedded spotlight.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A modular recessed spotlight includes a lamp barrel, an inner wall of which is connected to a mounting plate, a driver mounted on the top of the mounting plate, a sealing plate snapped onto the top of the inner wall of the lamp barrel, a conductive cable mounted on the top of the driver, the top of the conductive cable passing through the sealing plate and connected to a conductive plug, fastening components connected to the bottom of both outer sides of the lamp barrel, positioning slots provided on the bottom of both outer sides of the lamp barrel and at the top of the fastening components, a connecting plate connected to the bottom of the mounting plate by bolts, a light-emitting element being installed through the center of the top of the connecting plate, a retaining ring provided on the bottom of the inner wall of the lamp barrel, positioning latches connected to both outer sides of the retaining ring for use with the positioning slots, a reflector connected to the top of the retaining ring, and a lamp cover fitted over the fastening components, with positioning blocks connected to the top of both ends of the inner wall of the lamp cover.

[0006] Preferably, the top of the sealing plate has several heat dissipation slots on both sides, and the bottom of the sealing plate has U-shaped strips connected to both sides directly below the heat dissipation slots.

[0007] Preferably, the inner wall of the retaining ring is inlaid with a lens, and one end of the inner wall of the reflector is provided with an opening for use with the light-emitting body.

[0008] Preferably, the fastening component includes a locking edge and a progressive edge, which are located on both sides of the lamp tube. The inner walls of the locking edge and the progressive edge are connected to the lamp tube. Two notches are formed at the two ends of the opposite side of the locking edge and the progressive edge to cooperate with the positioning block.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the top of the locking edge is connected to a limiting protrusion, and the top of the progressive edge is provided with several anti-slip grooves.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention utilizes a combination of a retaining ring, a lamp tube, positioning latches, and positioning slots. The retaining ring, positioning latches, and reflector cup are inserted into the inner wall of the lamp tube. During the contact between the positioning latches and the inner wall of the lamp tube, the two positioning latches are compressed and deformed. After the positioning latches align with the positioning slots, they return to their original shape, locking into the positioning slots, thus completing the installation of the retaining ring. When installing the lampshade, align the two positioning blocks with the two notches, and move the lampshade upwards so that the tops of the positioning blocks penetrate the two notches. Subsequently, rotating the lampshade causes the two positioning blocks to rotate on the tops of the locking edge and the progressive edge, respectively. When one of the positioning blocks rotates out of the anti-slip groove, the installation of the lampshade is finally completed. When it is necessary to replace a damaged light-emitting element, press the two positioning latches to disengage them from the positioning slots, remove the retaining ring, and at this time, the reflector cup is also removed. Remove the bolts used for positioning the connecting plate, remove the connecting plate, remove the light-emitting element on it, replace it with a new light-emitting element, and finally reassemble each component in sequence.

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0014] Please see Figures 1-7 A modular recessed spotlight includes a lamp barrel 2, an mounting plate 14 connected to the inner wall of the lamp barrel 2, a driver 9 mounted on the top of the mounting plate 14, a sealing plate 10 snapped onto the top of the inner wall of the lamp barrel 2, a conductive cable 3 mounted on the top of the driver 9, the top of the conductive cable 3 passing through the sealing plate 10 and connected to a conductive plug 4, fastening components 5 connected to the bottom of both outer sides of the lamp barrel 2, positioning slots 11 opened on the bottom of both outer sides of the lamp barrel 2 and at the top of the fastening components 5, a connecting plate 12 connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 14 by bolts, a light-emitting element 8 installed through the center of the top of the connecting plate 12, a retaining ring 1 provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the lamp barrel 2, positioning latches 6 connected to both outer sides of the retaining ring 1 for use with the positioning slots 11, a reflector cup 7 connected to the top of the retaining ring 1, a lamp cover 15 sleeved on the outside of the fastening components 5, and positioning blocks 16 connected to the top of both ends of the inner wall of the lamp cover 15.

[0015] As a technical optimization of this utility model, several heat dissipation slots 13 are provided through both sides of the top of the sealing plate 10. U-shaped strips are connected to both sides of the bottom of the sealing plate 10 and directly below the heat dissipation slots 13. A space for air flow is left between the bottom of the inner wall of the U-shaped strip and the bottom of the heat dissipation slots 13. The heat dissipation slots 13 facilitate the dissipation of heat generated during the operation of the drive 9 to the external environment. The use of the sealing plate 10 and the heat dissipation slots 13 eliminates the need for heat dissipation fins, making the space for the drive 9 inside the lamp tube 2 larger, which is beneficial for the heat dissipation of the drive 9.

[0016] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the inner wall of the retaining ring 1 is inlaid with a lens, and one end of the inner wall of the reflector cup 7 is provided with a through-hole for use with the light-emitting body 8; the lens can protect the reflector cup 7 and the light-emitting body 8; the retaining ring 1, the lens, the positioning lock 6 and the reflector cup 7 form a whole, and there is no need to use a lens holder, so they can be modularly installed and disassembled in the lamp tube 2.

[0017] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the fastening component 5 includes a locking edge 51 and a progressive edge 53. The locking edge 51 and the progressive edge 53 are located on both sides of the lamp tube 2. The inner walls of the locking edge 51 and the progressive edge 53 are connected to the lamp tube 2. Two notches are formed at the two ends of the opposite side of the locking edge 51 and the progressive edge 53 to cooperate with the positioning block 16.

[0018] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a limiting protrusion 52 is connected to one end of the top of the locking edge 51, and a number of anti-slip grooves 54 are opened on the top of the progressive edge 53.

[0019] In use, the retaining ring 1, the positioning latch 6, and the reflector cup 7 are inserted into the inner wall of the lamp tube 2 together. When the positioning latch 6 contacts the inner wall of the lamp tube 2, the two positioning latches 6 are squeezed and deformed. When the positioning latch 6 corresponds to the positioning groove 11, the positioning latch 6 returns to its original shape and is locked in the positioning groove 11, thus completing the installation of the retaining ring 1. When installing the lamp cover 15, the two positioning blocks 16 are aligned with the two notches, and the lamp cover 15 is moved upward so that the top of the positioning blocks 16 passes through the two notches. Subsequently, the lamp cover 15 is rotated to drive the two positioning blocks 16 to rotate on the top of the locking edge 51 and the progressive edge 53 respectively. When one of the positioning blocks 16 rotates to disengage from the anti-slip groove 54, the installation of the lamp cover 15 is finally completed. Furthermore, the retaining ring 1, lens, positioning latch 6, and reflector 7 are integrated into a single unit, eliminating the need for a lens retainer. This allows for modular installation and disassembly within the lamp tube 2, improving installation and disassembly efficiency and preventing insufficient brightness in edge areas. When replacing a damaged light-emitting element 8, press the two positioning latches 6 to disengage them from the positioning slot 11, remove the retaining ring 1 (which also removes the reflector 7), remove the bolts used to position the connecting plate 12, remove the connecting plate 12, remove the light-emitting element 8, replace it with a new one, and finally reassemble all components in sequence. The use of the sealing plate 10 and heat dissipation slot 13 eliminates the need for heat dissipation fins, allowing for more space within the lamp tube 2 to house the driver 9, which is beneficial for heat dissipation.

[0020] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
