Downlight with Detachable Surface Ring and Spring Clamping
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing downlights are not compatible with both 5-inch and 6-inch installation barrels, and their integrated design requires large packaging and transportation spaces due to the inability to detach the lamp body and surface ring.
Innovation Solution
A downlight design featuring a lamp body with first and second clamping parts connected to a spring part, allowing for detachable and flexible installation with both barrel sizes, and a surface ring that can be separated from the lamp body for reduced packaging and transportation space, with a concave structure enabling multiple rings to be stacked.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If downlights are integrated with decorative rings and installed in iron installation barrels, then the decoration effect is improved, but the lamp body becomes too large and not easy to replace
Solution Approach 1:
The downlight is divided into separate components: the lamp body and the decorative ring are detachably connected, allowing them to be separated for independent installation and replacement. This segmentation enables the lamp body to be replaced without removing the decorative ring, making maintenance easier while preserving the decorative effect.
2Ease of manufacture
If downlights are designed with integrated decorative rings, then the aesthetic appearance is improved, but the packaging and transportation space increases
Solution Approach 1:
By separating the lamp body and decorative ring into detachable components, the packaging space is significantly reduced. The decorative ring can be packaged separately or stacked with other rings, while the lamp body occupies less space without the attached ring, thereby reducing overall transportation and storage requirements.
3Manufacturing precision
If downlights are designed to fit specific barrel sizes, then the installation precision is improved, but the adaptability to different barrel sizes decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The downlight is designed with universal adaptability to fit both 5-inch and 6-inch installation barrels. The lamp body incorporates adjustable or interchangeable mounting components that can accommodate different barrel sizes, allowing a single product design to serve multiple installation scenarios without compromising installation precision.
4Stability of the object's composition
If downlights use fixed integrated designs, then the structural stability is improved, but the flexibility in installation and packaging decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The detachable connection between the lamp body and decorative ring provides installation flexibility while maintaining structural stability during use. The components can be easily assembled and disassembled during installation and maintenance, yet form a stable integrated structure when installed, achieving both flexibility and stability.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enables flexible installation with both 5-inch and 6-inch barrels, reduces packaging space through detachable components, and provides a sturdy 360-degree fastening installation, while eliminating the need for screws and allowing adjustable installation height.
Implementation Method 1
at least one spring part is matingly connected to the lamp body through the first clamping part or the second clamping part

AI summary
A downlight comprising a lamp body and a surface ring is disclosed. The lamp body is provided with at least one first clamping part and second clamping part. A spring part is connected to the lamp body through the first or second clamping part. The lamp body is detachably connected with the surface ring. This disclosure enables flexible installation of downlights with installation barrels of different sizes by connecting ether the first or second clamping part with the spring part. By configuring a detachable connection mode between the lamp body and the surface ring, this disclosure enables the separation of the surface ring from the lamp body, reducing the packaging and transportation space. By configuring an infinite-position clamping connection mode between the lamp body and the surface ring, this disclosure enables a 360-degree fastening installation therebetween, making the downlight structure more sturdy and the installation more convenient.
