Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing LED strip lights for cabinet lighting lack optimal installation flexibility and glare control, leading to suboptimal light distribution and discomfort due to inadequate mounting surfaces and glare prevention mechanisms.
Innovation Solution
The LED strip light design features a strip-shaped lamp holder with adjustable mounting surfaces and a laminar mounting clip system, including U-shaped and V-shaped grooves, and a light-barrier reflective strip to ensure proper light emission and glare reduction, suitable for various environments like shelves and freezers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If LED strip lights use fixed mounting surfaces, then manufacturing is simplified, but installation flexibility and adaptability to different cabinet settings are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting structure is divided into separate components: a mounting clip with mounting surfaces and a lamp holder. This segmentation allows the mounting clip to be designed with multiple mounting surfaces for flexibility while keeping the lamp holder structure simple for manufacturing.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting clip is designed with multiple mounting surfaces (first mounting surface, second mounting surface, third mounting surface) that can accommodate different installation orientations and cabinet configurations, making a single component universally applicable to various mounting scenarios.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If LED strip lights lack glare prevention mechanisms, then the structure is simpler, but glare control and light distribution quality deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
A light-barrier reflective strip is introduced as an intermediary element between the light source and the viewing area. This reflective strip redirects light away from direct viewing angles, reducing glare while maintaining overall illumination quality without requiring complex optical systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The light-barrier reflective strip is strategically positioned only in areas where glare control is needed, rather than enclosing the entire light source. This localized approach provides effective glare reduction while minimizing structural complexity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If LED strip lights use adjustable mounting surfaces, then adaptability to different environments improves, but manufacturing precision requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
By separating the adjustable mounting surfaces into a dedicated mounting clip component, the manufacturing precision requirements are localized to the clip rather than the entire lamp holder. This allows for standardized, precision-manufactured clips to be produced independently.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting clip is designed with adjustable mounting surfaces that can be positioned at different angles and orientations to suit various installation environments, providing dynamic adaptability while maintaining manufacturing simplicity through modular design.

AI summary
An LED strip light for cabinet lighting includes a strip-shaped lamp holder, and a light-emitting module. The strip-shaped lamp holder includes a first mounting surface and a second mounting surface and two light source slots. The angle between the light source mounting surface formed by the two light source slots and the first mounting surface is an acute angle between 30 and 40 degrees. Two mounting groove is respectively provided on the first mounting surface and the second mounting surface along the extending direction thereof. One mounting groove is a U-shaped groove and another is a V-shaped groove. It is easier to install the LED strip light in the strip-shaped lamp holder and more mounting options can be selected so that the LED strip light is more suitable for cabinets such as shelf laminates, vertical freezers and horizontal freezers, etc.
