Panel Lamp Body Structure with Integrated Power Supply Groove
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing direct-illuminated panel lamps with metal shell power supplies result in an excessively thick lamp body due to the need for mounting power components on the back, which is aesthetically unpleasing and costly for packaging.
Innovation Solution
A lamp body structure featuring a bottom plate and side plates forming a positioning cavity with a support plate and seating groove, allowing the power supply assembly to be inserted and secured, reducing the overall thickness by utilizing the existing thickness of the lamp panel.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the power component is mounted on the back of the lamp body, then the power supply function is achieved, but the overall thickness of the panel lamp increases to about 70 mm
Solution Approach 1:
The power component is nested within the positioning cavity formed by the bottom plate and side plates, allowing the power supply assembly to be contained within the existing lamp body thickness rather than extending beyond it. This nesting approach enables the power component to be integrated into the 35mm thick lamp body structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The positioning groove extends along the side plate in a direction parallel to the bottom plate, utilizing the lateral dimension of the lamp body structure to accommodate the power component. This dimensional reorientation allows the power assembly to fit within the available space without increasing overall thickness.
2Reliability
If the power component is mounted on the back of the lamp body, then the power supply function is achieved, but the lamp body structure becomes excessively thick which is not aesthetically pleasing and increases packaging costs
Solution Approach 1:
The lamp body is segmented into functional zones: the bottom plate and side plates form a positioning cavity that specifically accommodates the power component. This segmentation allows the power supply function to be integrated without compromising the aesthetic flatness of the overall lamp body structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The side plate is designed with a specific local structure - the positioning groove with support plate - that provides the necessary functionality for power component mounting only where needed, while the rest of the lamp body maintains its sleek, thin profile for aesthetic purposes.

AI summary
The lamp body structure includes a lamp panel and a power component. The lamp panel comprises a bottom plate and a plurality of side plates connected end to end. The bottom plate and each side plate together form a positioning cavity for the light source assembly, wherein the one side plate is located at the edge of the plate at the opening of the cavity and is disposed away from the bottom plate. The direction of the cavity extends and forms a support plate, and the support plate and the corresponding side plate together form a seating groove. The power component is connected to an external power source and supplies power to the light source component. One end of the power component is inserted into the mounting groove along the corresponding side plate and abuts the support plate.
