FIELD OF THE TECHNOLOGY

The present invention relates to lighting equipment, especially a corner lamp and interconnected lighting system.

BACKGROUND

Under the background of energy saving and environmental protection, LED lamps are more and more used in the fields of home and commercial lighting because of their high light efficiency and good light gathering performance, and with the continuous improvement of people's quality of life, people's demand for home and commercial lighting is also increasing accordingly.

When adjusting the scope of the lighting space, it is also necessary to adjust the irradiation range of the corresponding lamps. Especially in commercial lighting situations such as display cases, the required lighting range is determined by the number of specific display cases. Therefore, by setting the length of the LED strip light plug interconnection, we can easily and quickly adjust the lighting range.

However, most of the existing technologies are aimed at the interconnection of strip lights. When encountering a corner, it is generally necessary to use the adapter to realize the turn, which leads to dark areas in the location of the adapter, resulting in poor overall lighting effect. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a lighting method that can realize the interconnection of the corner without dark areas.
