Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lighting fixtures, and particularly to a keyholder-type camping light.

Background Art

[0002] As people increasingly value outdoor activities, camping lights are also widely used. A camping light, also known as an outdoor lantern, is a lighting tool designed specifically for outdoor camping activities. It has various functions and features to meet different outdoor environments and usage needs. Currently, as shown in the Chinese Utility Model Application Number CN202420232463.X (Publication Number CN221811292U), the camping light includes a light body assembly, a lifting device, and a lighting control device. The light body assembly includes a lighting assembly and a base assembly. The lighting control assembly is located below the light body assembly and the lifting device. The lighting control assembly includes a knob switch, and by rotating the knob switch, the opening / closing and brightness of the lighting assembly within the light body assembly can be controlled.

[0003] With the diversification of people's needs for outdoor activities, the volume of camping lights is moving in the direction of miniaturization, and camping lights can be hung on keys for easy carrying by users. However, the lighting control assembly of conventional camping lights is located below the lamp body base, and the knob switch of the lighting control assembly is small. When producing a miniaturized camping light, the volume of this knob switch becomes even smaller, making it inconvenient for users to operate. Therefore, it is somewhat difficult to produce a miniaturized camping light. For this reason, further improvement of camping lights is necessary.

[0008] Furthermore, a guard rail is provided between the lamp cover and the lamp holder so as to surround the outside of the lampshade. The guard rail can protect the lampshade.

[0009] The guard rail can adopt a plurality of structural forms. Preferably, the guard rail includes a guide stripe and a guide ring. There are at least two guide stripes provided at intervals in the circumferential direction of the lampshade. There is at least one guide ring. The guide ring extends in the circumferential direction of the lampshade, and the guide stripe is connected to the guide ring. The structure of the guard rail is simple and does not block the light of the lampshade.

[0010] Furthermore, a first mounting hole corresponding to the guide stripe is provided at the lower end of the lamp cover. The first mounting hole is located outside the circular concave groove. A second mounting hole corresponding to the guide stripe is provided in the lamp holder. The second mounting hole is outside the annular concave groove. The upper and lower ends of the guide stripe are respectively mounted in the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole. The upper and lower ends of the guide stripe are welded in the corresponding mounting holes, thereby ensuring the stability of the mounting of the guide stripe.

[0011] Furthermore, a hook is provided at the top of the lamp cover. The hook can be hung on the key holder. The miniaturized key holder type camping light can be hung on the key holder or held by hand through the hook.

Advantages of the Invention

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows. The lower cover of the camping light is a switch part for controlling the opening and closing of the lighting element. By rotating the lower cover, the opening and closing of the lighting element can be controlled. Therefore, the structure of the camping light is simplified, which is convenient for the miniaturized production of the camping light. Moreover, compared with the switch part of the conventional camping light, rotating the lower cover is more convenient for the actual operation of the user. Even for a miniaturized camping light, the user can easily rotate the lower cover to turn the lighting on and off.
