[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clear, the technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0037] Referring to Figures 1-3, the present application provides a lighting fixture comprising a lighting fixture housing 1 and at least one light source module 2. A side surface of the lighting fixture housing 1 is provided with at least one mounting groove 10 adapted to accommodate the light source module 2. The light source modules 2 are mounted within the mounting groove 10 in a one-to-one correspondence. Multiple latches 20 are provided around the edges of the light source module 2, and elastic locks 11 corresponding to the latches 20 are provided within the mounting groove 10. During installation of the light source module 2, when the light source module 2 is pressed into a predetermined position within the mounting groove 10, the latches 20 engage with the elastic locks 11, securing the light source module 2 to the lighting fixture housing 1. When the light source module 2 is pressed into the predetermined position within the mounting groove 10 again, the latches 20 eject from the elastic locks 11, allowing the light source module 2 to be removed from the lighting fixture housing 1. Therefore, the lighting fixture of the present application simplifies both installation and removal, saving time and improving efficiency. Furthermore, it facilitates replacement of different light source modules, enhancing user experience.

[0038] As shown in FIG1 , each light source module 2 is provided with a plurality of light sources 21 . The plurality of light sources 21 may be arranged at equal intervals or at unequal intervals.

[0039] 3 , the extension direction of the buckle 20 is consistent with the pressing direction of the light source module 2. Furthermore, to ensure the stability of the clamping, the buckle 20 is a T-shaped structure, and the width of the buckle 20 close to the elastic lock 11 is greater than the width of the end away from the elastic lock 11.

[0040] 4 and 5 , the elastic lock 11 includes a receiving chamber 111, a pusher 112, an elastic member 113, and a locking member 114. The elastic member 113 is located within the receiving chamber 111. One end of the elastic member 113 is fixed to the bottom of the receiving chamber 111, and the other end of the elastic member 113 is fixedly connected to one end of the pusher 112. The elastic member 113 is arranged along the pressing direction of the light source module 2. The pusher 112 extends from the interior of the receiving chamber 111 through the opening 110 of the elastic lock 11 to the exterior of the receiving chamber 111. The pusher 112 includes an abutting portion 1120 and a clamping portion 1121 located on opposite sides of the abutting portion 1120. The opposite ends of the abutting portion 1120 are respectively configured to abut against the elastic member 113 and the clamping portion 20. The abutting portion 1120 is driven by the elastic member 113 or the clamping portion 20 to drive the entire pusher 112 to move. The clamping portion 1121 is configured to clamp with the clamping portion 20.

[0041] Among them, a locking position 1110 is provided on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 111, and the locking member 114 is arranged on the pushing member 112 and moves with the movement of the pushing member 112. When the light source module 2 is pressed, the buckle 20 pushes the pushing member 112 to move to move the locking member 114 into or out of the locking position 1110. When the locking member 114 moves into the locking position 1110, the locking member 114 can lock the pushing member 112 in a fixed position. When the locking member 114 moves out of the locking position 1110, the pushing member 112 can be restored to its initial position under the action of the elastic member 113.

[0042] The distance between the two engaging portions 1121 near the bottom of the receiving cavity 111 is smaller than the distance away from the bottom of the receiving cavity 111, and the distance between the two engaging portions 1121 and the bottom of the receiving cavity 111 is greater than the width of the opening 110 of the elastic lock buckle 11. The width of the buckle 20 is smaller than the width of the opening 110, and the buckle 20 can be inserted between the two engaging portions 1121 and abut against the abutting portion 1120. In this way, during the process of the pushing member 112 moving along the pressing direction, the distance between the two clamping parts 1121 away from the bottom end of the receiving cavity 111 will change. For example, when the pushing member 112 moves toward the bottom of the receiving cavity 111, the distance between the two clamping parts 1121 away from the bottom end of the receiving cavity 111 will become smaller. At this time, the two clamping parts 1121 can clamp and fix the buckle 20; when the pushing member 112 moves in the direction away from the bottom of the receiving cavity 111, the distance between the two clamping parts 1121 away from the bottom end of the receiving cavity 111 will become larger. At this time, the two clamping parts 1121 will loosen the buckle 20, and the buckle 20 can be detached from the two clamping parts 1121.

[0043] The elastic member 113 may be a spring, but is not limited thereto.

[0044] Specifically, the abutment portion 1120 is provided with a first slide rail 1122, which is arranged in a pressing direction perpendicular to the light source module 2. The locking member 114 is slidably mounted on the first slide rail 1122. The inner wall of the receiving cavity 111 is provided with a first slide groove 1111, a second slide groove 1112, a third slide groove 1113, and a fourth slide groove 1114, which are connected end to end. The first slide groove 1111, the second slide groove 1112, the third slide groove 1113, and the fourth slide groove 1114 form a closed ring structure. In the pressing direction perpendicular to the light source module, the width of the ring structure formed by the first slide groove 1111, the second slide groove 1112, the third slide groove 1113, and the fourth slide groove 1114 is equal to the width of the first slide rail 1122. A portion of the locking member 114 is located in the first slide rail 1122, and another portion of the locking member 114 is located in the annular structure. The first slide rail 1122 is combined with the first slide groove 1111, the second slide groove 1112, the third slide groove 1113 and the fourth slide groove 1114 to form a locking reset channel, and the locking member 114 moves in the locking reset channel.

[0045] The first slot 1111 is parallel to the adjacent engaging portion 1121, while the fourth slot 1114 is arc-shaped. The first slot 1111 is located on one side of the elastic member 113, while the fourth slot 1114 extends from the other side of the elastic member 113 across the elastic member 113 and connects to the end of the first slot 1111 closest to the opening 110. In the direction in which the light source module is pressed, the length of the first slot 1111 is equal to the length of the fourth slot 1114. The second slot 1112 and the third slot 1113 are located between the first slot 1111 and the fourth slot 1114, and the junction between the second slot 1112 and the third slot 1113 is recessed toward the opening 110 of the elastic latch 11, forming a locking position 1110.

[0046] Among them, the connection between the first slide groove 1111 and the fourth slide groove 1114 is defined as the first position, the connection between the first slide groove 1111 and the second slide groove 1112 is defined as the second position, and the connection between the third slide groove 1113 and the fourth slide groove 1114 is defined as the third position.

[0047] Before installing the lamp housing 1 and the light source module 2, the lamp housing 1 can be installed on the installation surface of the lighting fixture (such as a wall), and then the light source module 2 can be installed into the installation slot 10 with the bottom facing the installation slot 10, as shown in Figure 6.

[0048] Please continue to refer to Figures 4 and 5. During the installation of the light source module 2, when the light source module 2 is installed in the installation slot 10 and the light source module 2 is pressed, the buckle 20 is inserted between the two clamping parts 1121 and abuts against the abutting part 1120. The buckle 20 pushes the abutting part 1120 to move the pushing member 112 toward the bottom of the accommodating cavity 111. At the same time, the locking member 114 moves from the first position to the second position, and the elastic member 113 is in a compressed state; when the light source module 2 is released, the pushing member 112 moves toward the bottom of the accommodating cavity 111 under the push of the elastic member 113. At the same time, the locking member 114 moves from the second position to the locking position 1110, and the clamping part 1121 is clamped and fixed with the buckle 20, so that the light source module 2 is fixed on the lamp housing 1. In this way, the installation of all light source modules 2 can be completed. The structure after the light source module 2 and the lamp housing 1 are installed is shown in Figure 7.

[0049] Please refer to Figures 4, 5 and 8. When disassembling the light source module 2, press the light source module 2 so that the buckle 20 pushes the pushing member 112 to move toward the bottom of the accommodating cavity 111, and at the same time, the locking member 114 moves from the locking position 1110 to the third position, and the elastic member 113 is in a compressed state; when the light source module 2 is released, the pushing member 112 moves toward the direction away from the bottom of the accommodating cavity 111 under the push of the elastic member 113, and at the same time, the locking member 114 is reset from the third position to the first position. At this time, the clamping portion 1121 releases the buckle 20, and the buckle 20 can be detached from the clamping portion 1121, thereby causing the light source module 2 to pop out from the lamp housing 1.

[0050] Continuing with Figure 2, each mounting slot 10 is further provided with at least one elastic locking buckle group, each elastic locking buckle group including two elastic locking buckles 11, which are located on opposite sides of the mounting slot 10 and are connected by a connector 12. When the locking member 114 moves to the second or third position, the bottom of the light source module 2 abuts against the connector 12, providing a certain degree of support to prevent the locking member 114 from disengaging from the locking reset channel due to excessive force when pressing the light source module 2.

[0051] The lighting fixture provided by the present application has a plurality of clips arranged around the edges of the light source module, and elastic locks corresponding to the clips are arranged in the mounting grooves of the lamp housing. When the light source module is pressed to a preset position in the mounting groove, the clips are inserted into the elastic locks and interlock with the elastic locks to fix the light source module to the lamp housing. When the light source module is pressed to the preset position in the mounting groove again, the clips pop out of the elastic locks to remove the light source module from the lamp housing. This structural design makes the installation and removal process of the lamp relatively simple, efficient, time-saving, and convenient for replacing different types of light source modules.

[0052] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
