1. Technical Field
The present invention relates LED lamps, and more particularly, to a connector locking base of an LED lamp.
2. Description of Related Art
The lighting of a lamp is intended to illuminate a space and thereby ensure an unblocked view thereof. Hence, the stability of the light emitted from the lamp has a direct effect on the human eye. Also, there are growing concerns for the manufacturing process of lamps, raw materials used in the process, environmental protection-related issues regarding the recycling of the raw materials, and high power consumption required for the lighting of the lamps.
Recently, there are some instances of unfavorable international coverage of the negative effect of conventional lamps on the human health and environmental protection. At present, the international community is replacing conventional lamps with LED lamps. LED lamps are absolutely free from problems with environmental protection and health hazards. Also, LED lamps excel conventional lamps in the brightness and stability of illumination, not to mention that LED lamps are extremely power-saving. Hence, LED lamps are very popular with consumer.
To allow LED lamps to substitute for conventional lamps, enable costs cutting, and meet consumer needs, the inventor of the present invention continuously explored the way to enable a conventional lamp base to supply power to an LED lamp for illumination, and eventually devised an improved structure.
Examiners of related patent authorities are hereby requested to refer to the appended drawings and embodiment when looking into the structures, methods, objectives, and spirit of the present invention, so as to gain insight into the present invention.
A connector locking base structure of an LED lamp, characterized in that the connector locking base structure includes a connector locking base having a conventional lamp connector and a locking base coupled together such that a threaded end of a cap of the LED lamp can be screwed to the locking base of the connector locking base. The conventional lamp connector of the connector locking base can be inserted into a socket for use with a conventional lamp, thereby allowing power to be supplied to the LED lamp for emission of light. Grooves formed in a casing of the conventional lamp connector are engaged with hooks of the locking base. A screw hole is centrally formed in the locking base. The hooks are provided on the inner side of the locking base and engaged with the grooves of the conventional lamp connector, respectively, to thereby form the connector locking base. The threaded end of the cap of the LED lamp can be screwed to the screw hole centrally formed in the locking base.
In conclusion, the present invention demonstrates novel effects, involves an inventive step, has never been published or applied, and has high industrial applicability. Hence, the applicant of the present invention hereby files a patent application with related patent authorities and expects that the related patent authorities will allow the patent application.
It should be noted that the above descriptions pertain to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. All changes which are made to the preferred embodiment of the present invention according to the concepts thereof and bring about a desired function or effect without departing from the spirit embodied in the specification and drawings should be deemed falling within the scope of the present invention.
