Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of splicing light strip technology, specifically to a modular quick-release splicing light strip. Background Technology

[0002] LED strips are lighting and decorative products made of flexible circuit boards or plastic as the substrate, integrating high-brightness LED chips. With their lightweight, energy-saving, and flexible characteristics, they are widely used in homes, commercial spaces, and landscaping. They support cutting and splicing, easily achieving straight, curved, or irregular shapes. Combined with RGB dimming technology, they can present colorful dynamic effects, creating a warm atmosphere or setting a visual focal point. The low-voltage driver design is safe and environmentally friendly, with a lifespan of tens of thousands of hours.

[0003] Existing splicing light strips mostly use a simple plug-and-play structure, which suffers from problems such as low connection strength, unreliable electrical contact, and limited splicing length. The maximum number of splicing segments in existing products on the market is typically no more than 5. Traditional structures are prone to interface loosening during transportation, requiring on-site debugging. Therefore, a modular quick-release splicing light strip is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, the application proposes a method that involves inserting an elastic limiting rod into a limiting groove, then rotating the second mounting base. The upper part of the second mounting base drives the elastic limiting rod and the second protrusion, causing the second protrusion to fully engage with the slot. By utilizing the engagement of the slot and the second protrusion, a stable connection between the female and male connectors is achieved, effectively avoiding the problems of low connection strength of the light strip, unreliable electrical contact during pulling, and limited splicing length.

[0005] To address the existing technical problems, this application provides a modular quick-release splicing light strip, including a light strip, a female connector disposed at one end of the light strip, and a male connector disposed at the other end of the light strip. The female connector includes a first mounting seat hinged to one end of the light strip, and a first boss is fixed to the end of the first mounting seat away from the light strip.

One end of the second mounting base is fixed with a plug tube that can be inserted into a slot, and the side of the plug tube is fixed with an elastic limiting plug rod that can be locked into a slot.

[0009] As one technical solution of this application, a second protrusion is fixed on the outer surface of the end of the elastic limiting rod away from the second mounting base, and the side of the second protrusion away from the elastic limiting rod is an inclined surface.

[0010] The first mounting base is fitted with an unlocking ring that can move along its central axis. One end of the unlocking ring is fixed with several pressing rods at equal intervals around its central axis. The end of the pressing rod away from the unlocking ring is an inclined surface that cooperates with the inclined surface on one side of the second boss.

[0011] As one technical solution of this application, a second slot is formed between the limiting ring and the sleeve for the insertion of the elastic limiting rod.

[0012] As one technical solution of this application, a spring groove is provided on one side of the first mounting base, and a return spring is installed in the spring groove. One end of the return spring abuts against one side of the sleeve.

[0013] The end of the unlocking ring away from the top pressure rod is fixed with an annular baffle, and one side of the annular baffle is in contact with the end of the reset spring.

[0014] As a technical solution of this application, the first protrusion is provided with a plurality of sockets at the end away from the first mounting base, and an electrode plate that can be electrically connected to the lamp strip is installed in the sockets.

[0026] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] See Figures 1-6 As shown, the modular quick-release splicing light strip includes a light strip 1, a female connector 2 disposed at one end of the light strip 1 and a male connector 3 disposed at the other end of the light strip 1. The female connector 2 includes a first mounting base 21 hinged to one end of the light strip 1, and a first boss 22 is fixed at the end of the first mounting base 21 away from the light strip 1.

[0028] A sleeve 24 is fixed to the outside of the first protrusion 22, and a first slot is formed between the sleeve 24 and the first protrusion 22.

[0029] The first protrusion 22 is fixed to the outside of a limiting ring 28. The inner wall of the limiting ring 28 is provided with L-shaped limiting grooves 281 at equal intervals around its central axis. One end of the limiting ring 28 is provided with a slot 282 at equal intervals around its central axis.

[0030] The male connector 3 includes a second mounting base 31 that is hinged to the other end of the light strip 1. One end of the second mounting base 31 is fixed with a plug 32 that can be inserted into a slot. The side of the plug 32 is fixed with an elastic limiting plug 34 that can be locked in the slot 282.

[0031] A number of L-shaped limiting grooves 281, corresponding to the number of elastic limiting rods 34, are equidistantly formed on the inner wall of the limiting ring 28 around its central axis. A number of corresponding slots 282, corresponding to the number of limiting grooves 281, are formed at one end of the limiting ring 28. The slots 282 communicate with the limiting grooves 281. When the male connector 3 and the female connector 2 are mated, the insert 32 is fitted inside the sleeve 24. Simultaneously, the elastic limiting rod 34 drives the second protrusion 341 to fully insert into the limiting groove 281. At this time, the limiting ring 28 will bend the elastic limiting rod 34 inward by pressing it against the second protrusion 341, causing the elastic limiting rod 34 to accumulate elastic potential energy. Then, the second mounting base 31 is rotated clockwise, causing the elastic limiting rod 34 to gradually move the second protrusion 341 closer to the slot 282. When the second protrusion 341 is fully inserted into the slot 282, the compression on the second protrusion 341 disappears, and the pressure acting on the elastic limiting rod 34 also disappears. The elastic potential energy accumulated in the elastic limiting rod 34 is released, and the upper elastic limiting rod 34 drives the second protrusion 341 to return to its initial state. At this time, the second protrusion 341 is fully engaged in the slot 282, effectively preventing the second protrusion 341 from falling off. The slot 282 and the second protrusion 341 work together to achieve a stable connection between the female connector 2 and the male connector 3, effectively avoiding problems such as low connection strength of the light strip, unreliable electrical contact during pulling, and limited splicing length.

[0032] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a second boss 341 is fixed on the outer surface of the end of the elastic limiting rod 34 away from the second mounting base 31, and the side of the second boss 341 away from the elastic limiting rod 34 is an inclined surface.

[0033] The first mounting base 21 is fitted with an unlocking ring 25 that can move along its central axis. One end of the unlocking ring 25 is fixed with several pressing rods 26 at equal intervals around its central axis. The end of the pressing rods 26 away from the unlocking ring 25 is an inclined surface that cooperates with the inclined surface on one side of the second boss 341.

[0034] By setting one end of the top pressing rod 26 as an inclined surface and one end of the second protrusion 341 as an inclined surface, when the unlocking ring 25 moves, the unlocking ring 25 will drive the top pressing rod 26 closer to the second protrusion 341. At this time, the inclined surface of one end of the top pressing rod 26 will slide along the inclined surface of one end of the second protrusion 341, so that the top pressing rod 26 uses the inclined surface to cooperate with the inclined surface of one end of the second protrusion 341 to press the second protrusion 341, so that one side of the elastic limiting rod 34 contacts the insert 32, thereby realizing the disengagement of the second protrusion 341 from the slot 282. Then, the second mounting base 31 is rotated counterclockwise, so that the second mounting base 31 drives the elastic limiting rod 34 and the second protrusion 341 to move out of the slot 282. When the second mounting base 31 can no longer move, the female connector 2 and the male connector 3 can be quickly disassembled by pulling the second mounting base 31.

[0035] See Figure 4 As shown, a second slot is formed between the limiting ring 28 and the sleeve 24 for the insertion of the elastic limiting rod 34.

[0036] When the limiting ring 28 is fixed on the sleeve 24, a second slot is formed between the limiting ring 28 and the sleeve 24. When the second mounting base 31 and the first mounting base 21 are mated, the elastic limiting rod 34 will be inserted into the second slot, so that the limiting ring 28 limits the elastic limiting rod 34.

[0037] See Figure 3 As shown, a spring groove 211 is provided on one side of the first mounting base 21, and a return spring 27 is installed in the spring groove 211. One end of the return spring 27 abuts against one side of the sleeve 24.

[0038] An annular baffle is fixed to the end of the unlocking ring 25 away from the top pressure rod 26, and one side of the annular baffle contacts the end of the return spring 27.

[0039] As the unlocking ring 25 presses against the second protrusion 341 via the top pressure rod 26, it moves along the central axis of the spring groove 211. At this time, the unlocking ring 25 presses against the return spring 27 via the annular baffle, and the upper return spring 27 gradually accumulates elastic potential energy. When the pushing force on the unlocking ring 25 disappears, the compression on the return spring 27 also disappears, and the accumulated elastic potential energy of the return spring 27 is released. Thus, the upper return spring 27 pushes the unlocking ring 25 back to its initial state via the annular baffle.

[0040] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the first boss 22 has several holes 23 at the end away from the first mounting base 21, and an electrode plate that can be electrically connected to the lamp strip 1 is installed in the hole 23.

[0041] The insert 32 has several conductive rods 33 that are electrically connected to the light strip 1. One end of the conductive rod 33 can be inserted into the socket 23 and contact the electrode plate inside the socket 23.

[0042] By fixing multiple conductive rods 33 inside the insert 32, when the conductive rods 33 are inserted into the first slot, the conductive rods 33 inside the insert 32 can be inserted into the socket 23, and the upper conductive rods 33 contact the electrodes inside the insert 32. At this time, multiple sets of lamp strips 1 can achieve electrical connection.

[0043] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both the female connector 2 and the male connector 3 are made of insulating material.

[0044] The main body material of the female connector 2 and the male connector 3 is preferably an insulating plastic such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polypropylene (PP). By utilizing the insulating properties of insulating plastics, current leakage can be effectively blocked, preventing electric shock accidents.

It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
