Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a downlight, and more particularly to a downlight with an adjustable mounting structure. Background Technology
[0002] Downlights have advantages such as compact structure, concealed installation, and concentrated light, and are therefore widely used in various buildings. However, due to limitations in the structural design of existing downlights, a single downlight is typically only suitable for one type of mounting hole and cannot be used in different mounting holes. Therefore, the use of existing downlights is greatly limited.
[0003] Existing downlights suffer from overly complex structural designs, which also increases the complexity of their installation processes. Consequently, the cost of existing downlights has remained high.
[0004] In addition, the existing heat dissipation structure of downlights has obvious design limitations, resulting in poor heat dissipation performance. Therefore, the heat dissipation performance of existing downlights needs further improvement.
[0005] Furthermore, existing downlights lack proper anti-glare design, resulting in excessively noticeable light spots that fail to achieve optimal anti-glare effects. This severely impacts the lighting performance of these downlights, making them unsuitable for practical applications. Utility Model Content
[0006] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a downlight with an adjustable mounting structure is provided, comprising a housing, multiple spring clips, a light source plate, and a lampshade. The housing has a reflector, a light-emitting portion, and a buffer portion. The reflector has an annular protrusion and multiple adjustment seats. The annular protrusion is disposed within the reflector and has a light inlet and a light outlet respectively disposed at its two ends. The multiple adjustment seats are disposed on the outer surface of the reflector. The reflector is connected to the buffer portion through the light-emitting portion. The multiple spring clips correspond to the multiple adjustment seats. Each spring clip is slidably fixed to its corresponding adjustment seat. The light source plate has multiple light sources. The light source plate is disposed on one side of the reflector, such that the multiple light sources are located within the light inlets. The lampshade is disposed within the light-emitting portion and covers the light outlet.
[0007] In one embodiment, the reflective part, the light-emitting part, and the buffer part are integrally formed.
[0008] In one embodiment, the inner diameter of the annular protrusion increases toward the light-emitting portion.
[0009] In one embodiment, the cross-section of the annular protrusion is two symmetrical curves.
[0010] In one embodiment, each adjustment seat has a cover and a slide. The slide is disposed at the bottom of the adjustment seat, and the cover covers a portion of the slide.
[0011] In one embodiment, the cover covers a portion of the slide.
[0012] In one embodiment, each spring clip includes a torsion spring, an L-shaped adjusting frame, and two elastic arms. The L-shaped adjusting frame and the two elastic arms are connected to the torsion spring. The L-shaped adjusting frame is disposed between the two elastic arms, and the two elastic arms are symmetrical to each other. The L-shaped adjusting frame is inserted into a slide rail.
[0013] In one embodiment, the slide has multiple limiting protrusions.
[0014] In one embodiment, the downlight further includes an anti-glare ring. The anti-glare ring is detachably disposed within the buffer section, and its inner surface has a plurality of anti-glare protrusions.
[0015] In one embodiment, the buffer portion further includes an annular portion. The annular portion is disposed at the end of the buffer portion away from the light-emitting portion.
[0016] As described above, the LED lamp according to this utility model may have one or more of the following advantages:
[0017] (1) In one embodiment of this utility model, the downlight includes a housing, multiple spring clips, a light source plate, and a lampshade. The housing has a reflective part, a light-emitting part, and a buffer part. The reflective part has an annular protrusion and multiple adjustment seats. The annular protrusion is disposed inside the reflective part and has a light inlet and a light outlet respectively disposed at its two ends. The multiple adjustment seats are disposed on the outer surface of the reflective part. The reflective part is connected to the buffer part through the light-emitting part. The multiple spring clips correspond to the multiple adjustment seats respectively. Each spring clip is slidably fixed on the corresponding adjustment seat. The light source plate has multiple light sources. The light source plate is disposed on one side of the reflective part, so that the multiple light sources are located inside the light inlet. The lampshade is disposed inside the light-emitting part and covers the light outlet. Through the adjustable mounting structure integrating the adjustment seats and the multiple spring clips, the user can adjust the spring clips to move away from or closer to the housing to match different mounting hole positions. Therefore, the downlight can be used more flexibly and has a wider range of applications.
[0018] (3) In one embodiment of this utility model, the slide of each adjustment seat has multiple limiting protrusions. Therefore, when the spring clip moves and passes any of the limiting protrusions, it will not only generate slight resistance but also produce a faint sound. Thus, the user's hand can feel tactile feedback, and the user's ear can also feel auditory feedback. In this way, the user can operate the spring clip more precisely to move it to the appropriate position.
[0019] (4) In one embodiment of the present invention, the housing has a reflective part, a light-emitting part, and a buffer part, and the reflective part, the light-emitting part, and the buffer part are integrally formed. In this way, the housing can have a reflective function without the need to install an additional reflector cup, which can effectively reduce the structural complexity, reduce the cost of the downlight, and improve the efficiency of the downlight assembly process.
[0020] (5) In one embodiment of this utility model, since the light source board is located on one side of the reflective part, and the multiple light sources of the light source board are located on one side of the circuit board and within the light entrance of the annular protrusion, the other side of the circuit board is completely exposed. Through the above-mentioned open heat dissipation structure design, the heat generated by the light source board can be quickly dissipated, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the downlight. In this way, the downlight does not need to be equipped with a fan and is not prone to failure or damage due to overheating, thus effectively extending the service life of the downlight. In addition, the downlight can also achieve the effects of quiet operation and energy saving.
[0021] (6) In one embodiment of this utility model, the inner diameter of the annular protrusion increases towards the light-emitting part, and the cross-section of the annular protrusion is curved. The above-mentioned structural design of the annular protrusion can further optimize the reflective effect to improve the lighting effect of the downlight. Therefore, the overall lighting efficiency of the downlight can also be greatly improved, enabling the downlight to meet the needs of practical applications.
[0022] (7) In one embodiment of this utility model, the downlight further includes an anti-glare ring. The anti-glare ring is detachably disposed within the buffer section. The inner surface of the anti-glare ring has multiple anti-glare protrusions, which can effectively improve the uniformity of the light spot to optimize the anti-glare effect. In addition, through the design of the detachable anti-glare ring, the user can install the anti-glare ring on the buffer section of the housing to improve the anti-glare effect of the downlight. If the anti-glare effect is not required, the user can also remove the anti-glare ring. Therefore, the downlight not only achieves the anti-glare effect but also meets the needs of different applications.
[0023] (8) In one embodiment of this utility model, the downlight further includes a first DIP switch and a second DIP switch, which can be mounted on the light source plate. The first DIP switch has a first switch cover, and the handle of the first DIP switch can protrude from the housing, while the first switch cover is fixed to the handle of the first DIP switch, so that the first switch cover is exposed outside the housing. The second DIP switch has a second switch cover, and the handle of the second DIP switch can protrude from the housing, while the second switch cover is fixed to the handle of the second DIP switch, so that the second switch cover is exposed outside the housing. The first DIP switch can be a color temperature switch, and the second DIP switch can be a power switch. Therefore, users can adjust the color temperature or power of the downlight by operating the DIP switches according to their own needs. Therefore, the downlight is more flexible in use and has a wider range of applications to meet the needs of different users. Attached Figure Description

[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 . Figure 1 An exploded view of a downlight with an adjustable mounting structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 A first perspective view of a downlight with an adjustable mounting structure according to an embodiment of the present invention (with an anti-glare ring).

Figure 5 A first perspective view of the housing of a downlight with an adjustable mounting structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the downlight 1 includes a housing 11, a light source plate 12, a lampshade 13, an anti-glare ring 14, two spring clips 15, a power module 16, a first DIP switch 17A, a second DIP switch 17B, and an electrical connection wire 18.
[0036] The housing 11 has a reflective part 111, a light-emitting part 112, and a buffer part 113. The reflective part 111 is connected to the buffer part 113 through the light-emitting part 112, so that the reflective part 111, the light-emitting part 112, and the buffer part 113 are integrally formed. The reflective part 111 has an annular protrusion 1111, two adjustment seats 1112, and two fixing parts 1113 (such as screws, bolts, screws, etc.). The annular protrusion 1111 is disposed inside the reflective part 111. The annular protrusion 1111 has a light inlet LE and a light outlet LT respectively disposed at its two ends. The inner diameter of the annular protrusion 1111 increases towards the light-emitting part 112, and the cross-section of the annular protrusion 1111 is curved. The two adjustment seats 1112 are disposed on the outer surface of the reflective part 11 and are opposite to each other. The inner surface of the buffer portion 113 is flat (the cross-section of the buffer portion 113 consists of two symmetrical straight lines), and the buffer portion 113 also has an annular portion 1131. The annular portion 1131 is located at the end of the buffer portion 113 away from the light-emitting portion 112. The inner surface of the housing 11 can be polished. In one embodiment, the housing 11 can be made of plastic or metal (such as copper, aluminum, iron, stainless steel, etc.).
[0037] The light source board 12 has a circuit board 122 and a plurality of light sources 121 disposed on the circuit board 122. The light source board 12 is disposed on one side of the reflector 111, such that the plurality of light sources 121 are located within the light entrance LE. The number of the plurality of light sources 121 can be 10, 20, or 30, depending on actual needs. The light source board 12 is fixed to the side of the reflector 111 adjacent to the light entrance LE by the two fasteners 1113. The number of these fasteners 1113 can be adjusted according to actual needs and is not limited to two; in another embodiment, the number of these fasteners 1113 can also be one or more than three. In one embodiment, the plurality of light sources 121 can be light-emitting diodes. In another embodiment, the plurality of light sources 121 can also be light bulbs or other similar components.
[0038] A lampshade 13 is disposed within the light-emitting section 112 and covers the light outlet LT. The bottom of the lampshade 13 has a first retaining ring F1. The inner wall of the light-emitting section 112 has three first fixing hooks G1. The three first retaining rings F1 can engage with the three first fixing hooks G1, allowing the lampshade 13 to be detachably fixed within the light-emitting section 112. The number of these first fixing hooks G1 can be adjusted according to actual needs and is not limited to three; in another embodiment, the number of these first fixing hooks G1 can also be two or four or more. In one embodiment, the lampshade 13 can be made of a transparent or translucent material, such as plastic or glass.
[0039] An anti-glare ring 14 is detachably disposed within a buffer portion 113. The inner surface of the anti-glare ring 14 has multiple anti-glare protrusions PR. The bottom of the anti-glare ring 14 has a second retaining ring F2. The inner wall of the buffer portion 113 has three second fixing hooks G2. The second retaining rings F2 can engage with the three second fixing hooks G2, thereby detachably fixing the anti-glare ring 14 within the buffer portion 113. The number of these second fixing hooks G2 can be adjusted according to actual needs and is not limited to three; in another embodiment, the number of these second fixing hooks G2 can also be two or four or more. In one embodiment, the anti-glare ring 14 can be made of plastic or other similar materials.
[0040] The two spring clips 15 mentioned above correspond to the two adjusting seats 1112 mentioned above. Each spring clip 15 is slidably fixed on the corresponding adjusting seat 1112.
[0041] The power module 16 is disposed on the circuit board 122 and is electrically connected to the plurality of light sources 121. In one embodiment, the power module 16 may be a light-emitting diode driver. In another embodiment, the power module 16 may also be a power supply for other existing light sources.
[0042] The first DIP switch 17A and the second DIP switch 17B are mounted on the circuit board 122 and electrically connected to the power module 16. The first DIP switch 17A has a first switch cover C1, and its handle protrudes from the housing 11. The first switch cover C1 is fixed to the handle of the first DIP switch 17A, thus exposing the first switch cover C1 within the housing 11. The second DIP switch 17B has a second switch cover C2, and its handle protrudes from the housing 11. The second switch cover C2 is fixed to the handle of the second DIP switch 17B, thus exposing the second switch cover C2 within the housing 11. The first DIP switch 17A can be a color temperature switch, and the second DIP switch 17B can be a power switch. Users can adjust the color temperature and / or power of the downlight 1 by operating the first DIP switch 17A and / or the second DIP switch 17B to meet different application requirements. In another embodiment, the first DIP switch 17A can be a brightness switch, while the second DIP switch 17B can be a color temperature switch, which can be adjusted according to actual needs to provide different lighting adjustment functions.
[0043] One end of the electrical connection wire 18 can pass through the hole in the circuit board 122 and be electrically connected to the power module 16, while the other end of the electrical connection wire 18 can be connected to an external power source, such as mains power or other power sources (such as a generator).
[0044] When the downlight 1 is not equipped with the anti-glare ring 14, the light emitted by the light source plate 12 can be reflected by the reflective part 111 (annular protrusion 1111) of the housing 11, and then irradiated outward through the buffer part 113 of the housing 11. The curved surface design of the annular protrusion 1111 and the planar inner surface design of the buffer part 113 can make the light more uniform and softer. When the downlight 1 is not equipped with the anti-glare ring 14, the anti-glare ring 14 can improve the uniformity of the light spot, thereby improving the anti-glare effect of the downlight 1.
[0045] As described above, in this embodiment, the housing 11 adopts a one-piece molding design, integrating three functional parts: the reflector 111, the light-emitting part 112, and the buffer part 113. This one-piece molding design allows the housing 11 itself to have light reflection function, eliminating the need for an additional reflector cup. This not only simplifies the structure of the downlight 1 and reduces production costs but also significantly improves the assembly efficiency of the downlight 1. By integrating multiple functional components into a single component, both optical performance and manufacturing costs are optimized.
[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the light source plate 12 is disposed on one side of the reflector 111, and the multiple light sources 121 of the light source plate 12 are disposed on one side of the circuit board 122 and located within the light entrance LE of the annular protrusion 1111, the other side of the circuit board 122 is completely exposed. Through the aforementioned open heat dissipation structure design, the heat generated by the light source plate 12 can be quickly dissipated, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the downlight 1. Thus, the downlight 1 does not require a fan and is less prone to malfunction or damage due to overheating, effectively extending its service life. In addition, the downlight 1 also achieves quiet operation and energy saving.
[0047] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the inner diameter of the annular protrusion 1111 increases towards the light-emitting portion 112, and the cross-section of the annular protrusion 1111 consists of two symmetrical curves. This structural design of the annular protrusion 1111 further optimizes the reflective effect, thereby improving the illumination effect of the downlight 1. Therefore, the overall illumination efficiency of the downlight 1 can be significantly improved, enabling the downlight 1 to meet the needs of practical applications.
[0048] In addition, in this embodiment, the downlight 1 also includes an anti-glare ring 14. The anti-glare ring 14 is detachably disposed within the buffer portion 113. The inner surface of the anti-glare ring 14 has multiple anti-glare protrusions PR. The surface of each anti-glare protrusion PR is curved, which can effectively improve the uniformity of the light spot to optimize the anti-glare effect. Furthermore, due to the design of the detachable anti-glare ring 14, the user can install the anti-glare ring 14 on the buffer portion 113 of the housing 11 to improve the anti-glare effect of the downlight 1. If the anti-glare effect is not required, the user can also remove the anti-glare ring 14. Therefore, the downlight 1 not only achieves the anti-glare effect but also meets the needs of different applications.
[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the downlight 1 has an adjustable mounting structure that integrates the adjustment base 1112 and the aforementioned plurality of spring clips 15. Therefore, the user can adjust the spring clips 15 to move away from or closer to the housing 11 to accommodate different mounting hole positions (such as standard 5-inch and 6-inch mounting holes). Thus, the downlight 1 offers greater flexibility in use and a wider range of applications.
[0050] Of course, this embodiment is only used for illustration and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Equivalent modifications or changes made to the downlight 1 with adjustable mounting structure according to this embodiment should still be included within the patent scope of this utility model.
[0051] It is worth mentioning that, due to the limitations of existing downlight structural design, a single downlight is typically only suitable for one type of mounting hole and cannot be used in different mounting holes. Therefore, the use of existing downlights is greatly limited. The overly complex structural design of existing downlights also increases the complexity of their installation process, thus preventing cost reduction. Furthermore, the heat dissipation structure of existing downlights has significant design limitations, resulting in poor heat dissipation. Therefore, the heat dissipation effect of existing downlights needs further improvement. In addition, the lack of appropriate anti-glare design in existing downlights results in overly noticeable light spots, failing to achieve a good anti-glare effect, which seriously affects the lighting performance of these downlights and makes them unsuitable for practical applications. In contrast, according to an embodiment of this utility model, the downlight includes a housing, multiple spring clips, a light source plate, and a lampshade. The housing has a reflective part, a light-emitting part, and a buffer part. The reflective part has an annular protrusion and multiple adjustment seats. The annular protrusion is disposed within the reflective part and has light inlets and light outlets respectively disposed at its two ends. The multiple adjustment seats are disposed on the outer surface of the reflective part. The reflector is connected to the buffer section via the light-emitting section. The aforementioned multiple spring clips correspond to the aforementioned multiple adjustment seats. Each spring clip is slidably fixed to its corresponding adjustment seat. The light source plate has multiple light sources. The light source plate is positioned on one side of the reflector, placing the multiple light sources within the light inlet. The lampshade is located within the light-emitting section and covers the light outlet. Through the adjustable mounting structure integrating the adjustment seats and the aforementioned multiple spring clips, the user can adjust the spring clips to move away from or towards the housing to accommodate different mounting hole positions. Therefore, the downlight offers greater flexibility in use and a wider range of applications.
[0052] According to an embodiment of this utility model, the housing has a reflective part, a light-emitting part, and a buffer part, and the reflective part, the light-emitting part, and the buffer part are integrally formed. Thus, the housing can have a reflective function without the need for an additional reflector cup, which can effectively reduce structural complexity, lower the cost of the downlight, and improve the efficiency of the downlight assembly process.
[0053] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this utility model, since the light source board is located on one side of the reflective part, and the multiple light sources of the light source board are located on one side of the circuit board and within the light entrance of the annular protrusion, the other side of the circuit board is completely exposed. Through the aforementioned open heat dissipation structure design, the heat generated by the light source board can be quickly dissipated, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the downlight. Thus, the downlight does not require a fan and is less prone to malfunction or damage due to overheating, effectively extending its lifespan. In addition, the downlight also achieves quiet operation and energy saving.
[0054] Furthermore, according to embodiments of this invention, the inner diameter of the annular protrusion increases towards the light-emitting portion, and the cross-section of the annular protrusion is curved. This structural design of the annular protrusion further optimizes the reflective effect, thereby enhancing the lighting effect of the downlight. Therefore, the overall lighting efficiency of the downlight can be significantly improved, enabling it to meet the needs of practical applications.
[0055] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this utility model, the downlight also includes an anti-glare ring. The anti-glare ring is detachably disposed within the buffer section. The inner surface of the anti-glare ring has multiple anti-glare protrusions, which can effectively improve the uniformity of the light spot to optimize the anti-glare effect. Additionally, due to the detachable design of the anti-glare ring, the user can install the anti-glare ring on the buffer section of the housing to enhance the anti-glare effect of the downlight. If the anti-glare effect is not required, the user can also remove the anti-glare ring. Therefore, the downlight not only achieves an anti-glare effect but also meets the needs of different applications.
[0056] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this utility model, the downlight also includes a first DIP switch and a second DIP switch, which can be mounted on the light source plate. The first DIP switch has a first switch cover, and the handle of the first DIP switch can protrude from the housing, while the first switch cover is fixed to the handle of the first DIP switch, making the first switch cover exposed outside the housing. The second DIP switch has a second switch cover, and the handle of the second DIP switch can protrude from the housing, while the second switch cover is fixed to the handle of the second DIP switch, making the second switch cover exposed outside the housing. The first DIP switch can be a color temperature switch, and the second DIP switch can be a power switch. Therefore, users can adjust the color temperature or power of the downlight according to their own needs by operating the DIP switches. Therefore, the downlight is more flexible in use and has a wider range of applications to meet the needs of different users. As can be seen from the above, the downlight with an adjustable mounting structure according to an embodiment of this utility model can indeed achieve excellent technical effects.
[0057] Please see Figure 6This is a perspective view of a spring clip for a downlight with an adjustable mounting structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown, each spring clip 15 includes a torsion spring 151, an L-shaped adjusting frame 152, and two elastic arms 153. The L-shaped adjusting frame 152 has a central groove CG. The L-shaped adjusting frame 152 and the two elastic arms 153 are connected to the torsion spring 151. The L-shaped adjusting frame 152 is disposed between the two elastic arms 153, and the two elastic arms 153 are symmetrical to each other. The two elastic arms 153 and the torsion spring 151 form a shape close to a V-shape, but are not limited thereto. The top of each elastic arm 153 has a ring portion RB. The spring clip 15 can be made of an elastic material, such as stainless steel, copper, aluminum, or other elastic materials.
[0058] Of course, this embodiment is only used for illustration and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Equivalent modifications or changes made to the spring clip 15 of the downlight 1 with adjustable mounting structure according to this embodiment should still be included within the patent scope of this utility model.
[0059] Please see Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the usage state of a downlight with an adjustable mounting structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown, the two adjustment seats 1112 are disposed on the outer surface of the reflector 11 and are opposite to each other. Each adjustment seat 1112 has a cover SC and a slide rail SD. The slide rail SD is disposed at the bottom of the adjustment seat 1112, and the cover SC covers a portion of the slide rail SD. The cover SC and the adjustment seat 1112 may be integrally formed. The two spring clips 15 correspond to the two adjustment seats 1112 respectively. Each spring clip 15 is slidably fixed to the corresponding adjustment seat 1112. In another embodiment, the cover SC may also cover the entire slide rail SD, and the cover SC and the adjustment seat 1112 are not integrally formed.
[0060] When any spring clip 15 is fixed to the corresponding adjusting seat 1112, the L-shaped adjusting frame 152 of the spring clip 15 is inserted into the slide rail SD of the adjusting seat 1112. Due to the limiting effect of the cover SC, the spring clip 15 can slide on the slide rail SD, but will not fall off the slide rail SD. In this way, the user can adjust these spring clips 15 to move away from or closer to the housing 11 to match different mounting hole positions (such as standard 5-inch and 6-inch mounting hole positions).
[0061] In addition, each adjusting seat 1112 also has two limiting protrusions LP, which are disposed on the slide rail SD of the adjusting seat 1112 and are adjacent to each other. In this embodiment, these limiting protrusions LP are not covered by the cover SC. The number of these limiting protrusions LP can be adjusted according to actual needs and is not limited to two; in another embodiment, the number of these limiting protrusions LP can also be one or more than three. In another embodiment, these limiting protrusions LP can also be covered by the cover SC.
[0062] When the user moves the spring clip 15 past one of the limiting protrusions LP, the user's hand will feel a slight resistance. When the spring clip 15 disengages from the limiting protrusion LP, it will rebound and strike the slide rail SD, producing a faint sound. Therefore, the user can feel tactile feedback, and the user's ears can also feel auditory feedback. In this way, the user can operate the spring clip 15 more precisely to move it to the appropriate position. When the spring clip 15 moves to the position of the other limiting protrusion LP, the downlight 1 can fit into a larger mounting hole.
[0063] As described above, each slide SD on the adjustment seat 1112 is equipped with multiple limiting protrusions LP. When the spring clip 15 moves along the slide and passes through these limiting protrusions LP, it generates slight resistance, thus providing tactile feedback that can be perceived by the hand. At the same time, when the spring clip 15 disengages from this limiting protrusion LP, it rebounds and strikes the slide SD, producing a slight sound, providing auditory feedback that can be discerned by the ear. This design allows the user to accurately judge the movement status of the spring clip 15 by touch and sound alone, without relying entirely on visual confirmation when adjusting its position, without having to rely entirely on visual confirmation. In this way, the above design effectively improves the accuracy and convenience of operation, making it easier to move the spring clip 15 to the expected and stable position.
[0064] Of course, this embodiment is only used for illustration and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Equivalent modifications or changes made to the downlight 1 with adjustable mounting structure according to this embodiment should still be included within the patent scope of this utility model.
[0065] In summary, according to the embodiments of this utility model, the downlight includes a housing, multiple spring clips, a light source plate, and a lampshade. The housing has a reflector, a light-emitting part, and a buffer part. The reflector has an annular protrusion and multiple adjustment seats. The annular protrusion is disposed within the reflector and has a light inlet and a light outlet respectively disposed at its two ends. The multiple adjustment seats are disposed on the outer surface of the reflector. The reflector is connected to the buffer part through the light-emitting part. The multiple spring clips correspond to the multiple adjustment seats respectively. Each spring clip is slidably fixed to its corresponding adjustment seat. The light source plate has multiple light sources. The light source plate is disposed on one side of the reflector, so that the multiple light sources are located within the light inlets. The lampshade is disposed within the light-emitting part and covers the light outlet. Through the adjustable mounting structure integrating the adjustment seats and the multiple spring clips, the user can adjust the spring clips to move away from or closer to the housing to accommodate different mounting hole positions. Therefore, the downlight can be used more flexibly and has a wider range of applications.
[0066] According to an embodiment of this invention, the slide of each adjustment seat has multiple limiting protrusions. Therefore, when the spring clip moves and passes any of the limiting protrusions, it will not only generate slight resistance but also produce a faint sound. Thus, the user's hand can feel tactile feedback, and the user's ear can also feel auditory feedback. In this way, the user can operate the spring clip more precisely to move it to the appropriate position.
[0067] According to an embodiment of this utility model, the housing has a reflective part, a light-emitting part, and a buffer part, and the reflective part, the light-emitting part, and the buffer part are integrally formed. Thus, the housing can have a reflective function without the need for an additional reflector cup, which can effectively reduce structural complexity, lower the cost of the downlight, and improve the efficiency of the downlight assembly process.
[0068] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this utility model, since the light source board is located on one side of the reflective part, and the multiple light sources of the light source board are located on one side of the circuit board and within the light entrance of the annular protrusion, the other side of the circuit board is completely exposed. Through the aforementioned open heat dissipation structure design, the heat generated by the light source board can be quickly dissipated, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the downlight. Thus, the downlight does not require a fan and is less prone to malfunction or damage due to overheating, effectively extending its lifespan. In addition, the downlight also achieves quiet operation and energy saving.
[0069] Furthermore, according to embodiments of this invention, the inner diameter of the annular protrusion increases towards the light-emitting portion, and the cross-section of the annular protrusion is curved. This structural design of the annular protrusion further optimizes the reflective effect, thereby enhancing the lighting effect of the downlight. Therefore, the overall lighting efficiency of the downlight can be significantly improved, enabling it to meet the needs of practical applications.
[0070] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this utility model, the downlight also includes an anti-glare ring. The anti-glare ring is detachably disposed within the buffer section. The inner surface of the anti-glare ring has multiple anti-glare protrusions, which can effectively improve the uniformity of the light spot to optimize the anti-glare effect. Additionally, due to the detachable design of the anti-glare ring, the user can install the anti-glare ring on the buffer section of the housing to enhance the anti-glare effect of the downlight. If the anti-glare effect is not required, the user can also remove the anti-glare ring. Therefore, the downlight not only achieves an anti-glare effect but also meets the needs of different applications.
[0071] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this utility model, the downlight also includes a first DIP switch and a second DIP switch, which can be mounted on the light source plate. The first DIP switch has a first switch cover, and the handle of the first DIP switch can protrude from the housing. The first switch cover is fixed to the handle of the first DIP switch, so that the first switch cover is exposed outside the housing. The second DIP switch has a second switch cover, and the handle of the second DIP switch can protrude from the housing. The second switch cover is fixed to the handle of the second DIP switch, so that the second switch cover is exposed outside the housing. The first DIP switch can be a color temperature switch, and the second DIP switch can be a power switch. Therefore, users can adjust the color temperature or power of the downlight according to their own needs by operating the DIP switches. Therefore, the downlight is more flexible in use and has a wider range of applications to meet the needs of different users.
