Description

Technical Field This utility model relates to a lamp structure, and more particularly to a grooved lamp structure. Background Technology Currently, cable tray profiles and cable tray lights are widely used, but due to their unreasonable design, their waterproof performance and ease of installation are poor. Furthermore, the power supply wires of cable tray lights are rather haphazard, resulting in poor aesthetics.

[0001] Currently, a Chinese patent, "A Conveniently Installed Cable Tray Light" (publication number CN218721169U), has been found. This patent describes a design where a support rod is installed at the top of a limiting plate, extending into a rectangular groove and fixedly connected to a pressure plate. A symmetrically arranged limiting rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the limiting plate, extending into the mounting groove. The cable tray light body has limiting holes adapted to the limiting rods. A driving mechanism for pressing down the pressure plate is installed within the rectangular groove. Using this technical solution, the pressure plate is pulled upwards, causing the limiting rods to disengage from the mounting groove. Then, both ends of the cable tray light body are inserted into the mounting grooves of the connecting mechanism. The driving mechanism then presses down the pressure plate, thus fixing the cable tray light body in place. The installation process is convenient and quick. Two connecting mechanisms allow for the individual hoisting of a single cable tray light body, while adjacent cable tray light bodies can be connected through the same connecting mechanism to form light strips of any length, meeting the lighting needs of cable tray lights in different environments. However, this structure has relatively poor waterproofing and aesthetics.

[0002] Additionally, a Chinese patent, "An LED Cable Tray Light with a Relay Connector," publication number CN220981183U, was found. This patent includes a cable tray light housing with a connecting rod at its top. A mounting block is connected to the top of the connecting rod, and the mounting block has four pairs of opposing connecting holes. A relay connection socket is located at the left end of the cable tray light housing, and a relay connection plug is installed at the right end. An LED light strip is installed inside the cable tray light housing near its bottom, and a transparent lampshade is located inside the cable tray light housing directly below the LED light strip. This patent, by using a relay connection socket, a relay connection plug, mounting screw holes, a connecting slot, and a connecting tongue, and utilizing their interoperability, allows for convenient assembly or disassembly of two LED cable tray lights, improving installation and disassembly efficiency. Furthermore, connecting two LED cable tray lights is convenient and safe. However, the waterproofing and aesthetics of this structure are relatively poor. Utility Model Content In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a wire groove lamp structure. The structure is reasonably designed, which not only facilitates installation, but also has good waterproof and aesthetic properties.

It should be pointed out that the following detailed description is exemplary and intended to provide further explanation of the present application; unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0013] The utility model of the wire trough lamp structure includes a wire trough profile with an upper groove 1 and a lower groove 2. The wire trough profile is made of aluminum alloy or plastic, etc. A junction box 3 and a power supply cable 4 are installed in the upper groove. The power supply cable 4 is a cable connected to the mains power. The power supply cable 4 and the junction box 3 are installed in the upper groove 1. A cover plate 9 is provided at the opening of the upper groove to facilitate waterproofing.

[0014] A sealed strip light fixture 5 (the strip light fixture 5 is a commercially available product, which is waterproof, with only the power supply wire of the strip light fixture 5 protruding) is placed in the lower groove 2. The upper groove 1 and the lower groove 2 are separated by a middle partition 6, which is integrally formed with the upper groove 1 and the lower groove 2 (made by extrusion molding). The middle partition 6 has a through hole 7 for the power supply wire 8 of the strip light fixture to pass through. The through hole 7 is temporarily drilled at the construction site using a hand drill. The power supply end of the power supply wire 8 of the strip light fixture after passing through the through hole 7 is connected to the output end (i.e., the power output end) of the junction box 3. The power supply end and the output end can be connected and conductive using a plug-in connector (the plug-in connector is a commercially available component). The input end of the junction box is connected to the power supply cable 4. The input end of the junction box and the power supply cable 4 can also be connected and conductive using a plug-in connector (the plug-in connector is a commercially available component).

[0015] For ease of installation, junction box 3 is connected to upper groove 1 by a snap fastener, and strip light fixture 5 is connected to lower groove 2 by a snap fastener.

[0016] Specifically, the junction box 3 is connected to the upper groove 1 by means of a first recess 101 on the inner walls of both sides of the upper groove, and a first protruding button 301 on the junction box 3 that is matched and positioned with the first recess. During installation, the junction box 3 is pushed into the groove from the opening of the upper groove 1, and the first protruding button 301 of the junction box 3 is engaged with the first recess 101. The strip light fixture 5 is connected to the lower groove 2 by means of a second recess 201 on the inner walls of both sides of the lower groove 2, and a second protruding button 501 on the strip light fixture 5 that is matched and positioned with the second recess. During installation, the strip light fixture 5 is pushed into the groove from the opening of the lower groove 2, and the second protruding button 501 on the strip light fixture 5 is engaged with the second recess 201.

[0017] To achieve the snap-fit ​​of the cover plate, the cover plate 9 has a downward buckle portion 901 on both sides. The outer walls of both sides of the upper groove 1 are provided with a first outward protrusion 102 that is directly opposite to the first inner concave portion 101. The downward buckle portion 901 is snapped onto the first outward protrusion 102, and the cover plate is snapped along the entire length of the groove in the trough profile to achieve waterproofing along the entire length. The outer walls of both sides of the lower groove 2 are provided with a second outward protrusion 202 that is directly opposite to the second inner concave portion 201. The downward buckle portion of the cover plate can be snapped onto the second outward protrusion. At the groove opening of the lower groove 2, the cover plate is snapped only at the position where the strip light fixture 5 is not installed. The cover plate is made of plastic or aluminum alloy.

[0018] In order to achieve heat dissipation of the strip light fixture 5 in the lower groove 2, through holes 10 are provided on both sides of the lower groove. The through holes 10 not only serve as heat dissipation holes, but also as mounting holes for the cable tray profile. The through holes 10 can be obtained by drilling at equal intervals in the factory after the cable tray profile is produced. When the cable tray profile is installed on materials such as walls or wooden boards, the cable tray profile is installed on the wall (with plastic anchors pre-installed) or wooden board by passing the threaded section of the long screw through the through holes 10.

[0019] For example, a perforation 10 is set on the cable tray profile at intervals of 10-20 cm. The cable tray profile is installed on the wall or wooden board, and a screw 11 is installed at intervals of 100 cm to fix it. Therefore, the installation of screws does not affect the heat dissipation of the cable tray profile. In addition, since the live parts are all installed in the upper groove and covered by the cover plate, rainwater, if it passes through the perforation, can only enter the lower groove and will flow out from the groove opening of the lower groove due to the gravity of the rainwater, thus avoiding the accumulation of rainwater in the cable tray profile.

[0020] The new wire groove lamp structure not only facilitates installation, but also offers good waterproofing and aesthetics.

[0021] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
