A colored lamp hook

Abstract

This utility model discloses a decorative light hook, comprising a hook body formed by integrally bending metal wire. When a filter screen is installed on a substrate, the hook body can pass through the mesh of the filter screen, with one end supported on the inner side of the substrate and the other end passing through the filter screen and supported on the outer side of the substrate. This structural design allows the hook to be securely fixed in installation environments with filters, enabling the installation of decorative lights without removing the filter screen. The hook body has opposing arc-shaped support sections at both ends, which, in the installed state, are stretched by the substrate to form an elastic clamp, ensuring the hook remains stable and does not fall off. The outer end of the hook has a hook portion for suspending the decorative light wire, making installation convenient and highly adaptable. This structure not only solves the problem of traditional plastic hooks being unable to pass through the mesh of the filter screen, but also takes into account structural strength, ease of installation, and long-term durability, making it suitable for various outdoor decorative lighting scenarios.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a colored light hook. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing variety of decorative lighting applications, colored lights are becoming more widely used for beautifying and decorating balconies, courtyards, ceilings, shop windows, and fences for festive occasions. To facilitate the installation and removal of colored lights, hook structures are typically used to secure the cables along the mounting substrate. However, in current usage environments, many mounting substrates (such as drainage channels, balcony frames, and awning edges) generally have metal or plastic filter structures added to the outside to prevent debris or insects from entering. These filters typically have evenly distributed mesh openings and are fixed to the substrate surface using screws or clips.

[0003] When the filter screen is installed on the substrate, traditional decorative light hooks are usually made of thick, one-piece injection molded plastic. These hooks are bulky and require insertion into the mounting holes or gaps in the substrate. However, because the mesh size of the filter screen is typically small (e.g., 1mm to 2mm), the thick plastic hooks cannot be inserted through the mesh, thus preventing a secure installation on the substrate with the filter screen. This limits the ability of users to hang decorative lights on such structures, restricting the application scenarios for decorative lights in areas with filter screens.

[0004] To address this issue, some users have attempted to design thinner plastic hooks to pass through the mesh. However, as the plastic parts become thinner, their structural strength decreases significantly, making them prone to bending, breakage, and other failures during installation or under stress, thus failing to support the weight of the lanterns for extended periods. Furthermore, traditional plastic hooks typically rely on thick-walled grooves or plastic clips to secure the lantern wires, resulting in cumbersome installation steps and a tendency to detach after fatigue, making them unsuitable for prolonged outdoor use. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model provides a decorative light hook. It addresses problems such as the inability of decorative light hooks to pass through the mesh in installation environments with filters, the inability to achieve stable fixation, and the insufficient structural strength and inconvenient wire clipping of traditional plastic hooks. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a novel decorative light hook structure that balances installation adaptability and structural strength, enabling stable installation of decorative lights on drainage channels or other substrates with filters, while improving ease of use and durability.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a colored light hook, comprising a hook body formed by integrally bending metal wire. When the filter screen is installed on the substrate, the hook body passes through the mesh of the filter screen, with one end supported on the inner side of the substrate and the other end passing through the filter screen and supported on the outer side of the substrate.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the hook body includes a bent main connecting section, one end of which is provided with a first arc-shaped support section, and the other end of which is provided with a second arc-shaped support section. The hook body is supported on the inner and outer surfaces of the substrate by the first arc-shaped support section and the second arc-shaped support section, respectively, and the hook body passes through the mesh.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, a bend is provided at the outer end of the second arc-shaped support segment.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the main connecting section is U-shaped and passes through the mesh.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the first arc-shaped support segment and the second arc-shaped support segment are close to each other. When installed on the substrate, the substrate supports the first arc-shaped support segment and the second arc-shaped support segment, so that the first arc-shaped support segment and the second arc-shaped support segment are elastically separated.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: This utility model uses a structure formed by bending metal wire to replace the traditional thick plastic parts. The metal wire has high strength and elastic recovery ability. Even if the wire diameter is small, it can still bear the weight of the colored lights and wires. It will not deform or break due to repeated bending or external force, thus effectively solving the problem of insufficient strength of traditional plastic hooks after thinning.

[0012] This invention uses a metal wire with a diameter of approximately 1.2mm, a size that can pass through the mesh of most common filters, enabling installation while coexisting with the filter. The hook body can be directly inserted into the filter mesh holes and forms support points on both the inner and outer sides of the substrate, allowing for the fixed installation of the colored lights without removing the filter, making it highly adaptable. This invention features a first arc-shaped support section and a second arc-shaped support section, allowing the hook body to abut against the inner and outer sides of the substrate after passing through the filter screen, forming an elastic support structure. In the installed state, the substrate supports the two arc-shaped sections, and the elastic rebound force of the metal wire provides a stable clamping force, ensuring that the hook remains firmly fixed and does not easily fall off even under long-term stress or vibration.

[0015] All features disclosed in this specification, or all steps in all disclosed methods or processes, may be combined in any way, except for mutually exclusive features and / or steps.

[0016] Any feature disclosed in this specification (including any appended claims, abstract, and drawings) may be replaced by other equivalent or similar features for a similar purpose, unless specifically stated otherwise. That is, unless specifically stated otherwise, each feature is merely one example of a series of equivalent or similar features.

[0017] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a decorative light hook designed to solve the problem of not being able to install traditional decorative light hooks on substrates with a filter screen 6. This decorative light hook is formed by integrally bending metal wire, with a reasonable structural design that allows for both stable installation through the filter screen 6 and ensures overall strength and elasticity.

[0018] In this embodiment, the overall structure of the decorative light hook is formed by bending metal wire to create an integral hook body 100. This hook body is the core component of this invention, with both ends bent to form an elastic support structure, giving it a certain degree of elasticity and resistance to deformation. The metal wire can be made of nickel-titanium alloy or elastic stainless steel wire, with a diameter of approximately 1.2 mm. This size not only provides good mechanical strength but also allows it to easily pass through the mesh 7 of commonly available filter screens 6, thus achieving a compatible installation effect with the filter screen 6.

[0019] In terms of specific structure, the hook body consists of a bent main connecting section 1, a first arc-shaped support section 4, and a second arc-shaped support section 3. In this embodiment, the arc-shaped cavity within the second arc-shaped support section 3 can also be used to clip wires. The main connecting section 1 is located in the middle of the hook and is used to pass through the mesh 7 on the filter screen 6. In this embodiment, the main connecting section 1 has a "U"-shaped structure. This U-shaped structure has a certain degree of elasticity. When the hook body is installed on the substrate, the main connecting section 1 can form a stable interlocking support relationship within the holes of the filter screen 6. Through this U-shaped design, the hook can achieve good adaptability to filter screens 6 of different thicknesses or materials, avoiding loosening or installation difficulties caused by differences in the size of the mesh 7.

[0020] In addition, when in use, the wires of the colored lights can be directly snapped into the second arc-shaped support section. Because the second arc-shaped support is made of bent thin metal wire, it has a certain degree of elasticity and can deform slightly to accommodate wires of different diameters. During the recovery process, the opening shrinks, making it difficult for the wires to slip out.

[0021] At both ends of the main connecting section 1, a first arc-shaped support section 4 and a second arc-shaped support section 3 extend outwards, respectively. The first arc-shaped support section 4 is located at the end of the hook body near the inner side of the substrate. In the installed state, this arc-shaped section abuts or supports the inner surface of the substrate to limit the tendency of the hook to come off outwards. The second arc-shaped support section 3 is located at the other end of the hook body. Its arc-shaped structure faces outwards to form support and extends beyond the filter screen 6, allowing it to support the outer surface of the substrate, thus forming an inner and outer clamping fit with the first arc-shaped support section 4. When the hook is inserted into the filter screen 6 and installed in place, the first arc-shaped support section 4 and the second arc-shaped support section 3 form an opposing elastic pressing state on both sides of the substrate. The elastic rebound force of the metal wire firmly fixes the hook to the substrate.

[0022] To further achieve rapid hanging and stable fixing of the lanterns, a bending part 2 is provided at the outer end of the second arc-shaped support section 3. This bending part 2 is formed by bending the end of a metal wire and adopts a bend design to prevent scratches. Because the overall diameter of the fine wire is relatively small, even a smooth cut can easily cause punctures and scratches. A small section of the bending part 2 can prevent scratches and also hold the fine wires in place.

[0023] Because the two bending sections are integrally formed with the overall structure, they have high structural strength and will not detach or break. During installation, the user simply inserts the hook body through the mesh 7 from the outside of the filter screen 6, ensuring the other curved end rests against the inner side of the substrate, and then slightly compresses the two curved support sections to complete the locking installation.

[0024] During the hook installation process, the design of the first arc-shaped support section 4 and the second arc-shaped support section 3 approaching each other plays an important role. When not installed, the two arc-shaped sections naturally converge to form a small gap. When the hook passes through the filter screen 6 and is installed on the substrate, the thickness of the substrate will cause the two arc-shaped support sections to be stretched apart, and the metal wire will undergo elastic deformation, thereby forming a rebound clamping force on both sides of the substrate. This elastic force not only ensures the stability of the hook, but also adapts to substrates of different thicknesses or filter screen 6 structures of different materials, avoiding the problem of loosening caused by differences in installation dimensions. After installation, the first arc-shaped support section 4 is close to the inner side of the substrate, while the second arc-shaped support section 3 is located on the outer side of the substrate, forming a double-sided support structure that can effectively distribute the force and improve the overall load-bearing capacity.

[0025] In addition, the surface of the hook's wire can be electroplated or rust-proofed, such as nickel plating, zinc plating, or sprayed with an anti-corrosion layer, to enhance its weather resistance and oxidation resistance, thereby meeting the needs of long-term outdoor use.

[0026] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without inventive effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
