Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of lighting fixture technology, and more particularly to fluorescent lamps. [Background technology]

[0002] Nowadays, lighting technology is becoming more and more important. Fluorescent lamps are widely used as lighting devices in daily life. Fluorescent lamps use low-pressure mercury vapor to emit ultraviolet light after electricity is applied, which causes fluorescent powder to emit visible light. Over the years, as people's living standards have improved, the structure of fluorescent lamps has also progressed in the direction of economy and practical use.

[0003] Conventional fluorescent lamps are often long lamps, the length of which can reach about 1m, and some large fluorescent lamps are even longer, which causes the overall volume and weight of the fluorescent lamp to increase accordingly. The large volume and weight of the fluorescent lamp brings a lot of inconvenience to installation.

[0004] When installing a conventional fluorescent lamp, the fluorescent lamp stand (the housing of the fluorescent lamp base) is usually first fixed to the wall with screws, and then the other modules of the fluorescent lamp are attached to the fluorescent lamp stand with bolts. This makes the operation of installing or removing the fluorescent lamp complicated and requires the operator to have a certain operating base, which is not suitable for the general public to install or remove the fluorescent lamp.
