Detailed Implementation
[0026] The following is combined Figure 1-7 This utility model will be described in detail.
[0027] A panel light with an extended frame includes a panel light body 10, an extended frame 20, and several elastic clips 30. The extended frame 20 includes four side strips 201 connected end to end. Each side strip 201 is inclined, so that the cross-sectional area of the light outlet 202 formed by the four side strips 201 gradually increases along the light emission direction. A connecting base plate 203 extends horizontally outward from the side of the extended frame 20 near the front of the panel light body 10. One end of each elastic clip 30 is engaged with the connecting base plate 203, and the other end of each elastic clip 30 is engaged with the back of the panel light body 10. The installation between the panel light body 10 and the extended frame 20 is achieved through the elastic clips 30. By setting an outer expansion frame 20, a trumpet-shaped three-dimensional structure, on the front of the panel light body 10, light can be effectively guided outwards, avoiding light concentration in the central area, thereby reducing direct glare and improving visual comfort. The gradually increasing cross-sectional area of the opening allows the light to form a wider diffusion angle upon emission, expanding the lighting coverage area to a certain extent, improving the uniformity of spatial illuminance, and reducing dark areas. The outward "overflow" effect of the light enhances the sense of spaciousness, improving visual aesthetics and spatial feel. The flexible clip 30 facilitates the connection between the panel light body 10 and the outer expansion frame 20, making installation simple and quick. The flexible clip 30 between the panel light body 10 and the outer expansion frame 20 allows for flexible and quick fixing at any position on the light body, satisfying user experience and significantly saving construction time and costs compared to threaded connections. Specifically, the bottom size of the outer expansion frame 20 does not exceed the size of the panel light body 10.
[0028] In this embodiment, each elastic buckle 30 includes a buckle body 301. One end of the buckle body 301 is provided with a card 302 parallel to the buckle body 301. The snap-fit cavity between the buckle body 301 and the card 302 is snap-fit adapted to the connecting base plate 203. Specifically, the connecting base plate 203 includes a horizontal plate 2031 and a vertical plate 2032 that are perpendicularly connected to each other. The vertical plate 2032 is connected to the outer frame 20 through the horizontal plate 2031. The horizontal plate 2031 abuts against the front edge of the panel light body 10, that is, the outer side of the frame of the panel light body 10. The snap-fit cavity is snap-fit adapted to the connecting vertical plate 2032. The card 302 and the buckle body 301 have a first bend 303, and the three together form a U-shape.
[0029] In this embodiment, the other end of the buckle body 301 is provided with an abutment portion 304, and an inclined piece 305 is connected between the buckle body 301 and the abutment portion 304. The buckle body 301 and the inclined piece 305 form an acute angle. When the abutment portion 304 abuts against the back of the panel light body 10 and is pressed, the end of the inclined piece 305 near the abutment portion 304 moves away from the buckle body 301. At the same time, one end of the buckle body 301 moves away from the other end of the buckle body 301, thereby fastening the connecting base plate 203. Specifically, the abutment portion 304 is a hollow semi-cylindrical shape; a second bend 306 is provided between the buckle body 301 and the inclined piece 305.
[0030] In this embodiment, the panel light body 10 includes a chassis 101 with an opening. A light-emitting device 102 is disposed within the opening of the chassis 101. The chassis 101 also includes a power supply device electrically connected to the light-emitting device 102. It further includes a face frame 103 and a diffuser plate 104 located in the light-emitting direction of the light-emitting device 102. The face frame 103 is threadedly connected to the chassis 101 after pressing down on the edge of the diffuser plate 104. Specifically, this application does not modify the panel light body 10; reference can be made to existing technologies in the art. In other embodiments, the panel light body 10 does not have a face frame 103, but instead has a bent edge on the outer edge of the opening of the chassis 101. The bent edge is bent to press down on the diffuser plate 104 at the opening of the chassis 101. An outer expansion frame 20 is located outside the face frame 103 or the bent edge, and the light-emitting port 202 is aligned with the area of the diffuser plate 104 that is not pressed down.
[0031] In this embodiment, a power supply box 105 is provided on the side of the chassis 101, and a power supply device is installed inside the power supply box 105.
[0032] In this embodiment, the light-emitting device 102 includes several rows of LED beads, each row of LED beads is arranged side by side and electrically connected to the power supply device.
[0033] In this embodiment, the frame strips 201 are detachably connected. This detachable connection allows for a separate design of each frame strip 201, significantly reducing the packaging volume and lowering packaging and transportation costs. In other embodiments, the outer frame 20 is a one-piece design.
[0034] In this embodiment, each frame strip 201 has a tab 401 and a socket 402 for inserting and adapting the tab 401 at both ends; or, the outer frame 20 includes two first frame strips and two second frame strips, each first frame strip has a tab 401 at both ends, and each second frame strip has a socket 402 for inserting and adapting the tab 401 at both ends.
[0035] In this embodiment, the insert 401 is provided with a bending line 403. After the insert 401 is inserted into the socket 402, the insert 401 is bent along the bending line 403. After bending the insert 401, the remaining insert 401 can be glued to the outside of the adjacent frame strip 201 to avoid exposure and affect the aesthetics.
[0036] The installation process of the panel light with an outer expansion frame proposed in this utility model is as follows:
[0037] (1) Place the diffuser plate 104 at the opening of the chassis 101, then cover the top frame 103 so that the top frame 103 presses down on the diffuser plate 104, and then thread the top frame 103 to the chassis 101.
[0038] (2) Place the outer frame 20 outside the front of the panel light body 10, and then connect the panel light body 10 and the outer frame 20 with several elastic buckles 30.
[0039] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it. They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
