Description

FIELD

The present invention is related to a downlight apparatus, and more particularly related to a downlight apparatus with electric safety design.

BACKGROUND

The time when the darkness is being lighten up by the light, human have noticed the need of lighting up this planet. Light has become one of the necessities we live with through the day and the night. During the darkness after sunset, there is no natural light, and human have been finding ways to light up the darkness with artificial light. From a torch, candles to the light we have nowadays, the use of light have been changed through decades and the development of lighting continues on.

Early human found the control of fire which is a turning point of the human history. Fire provides light to bright up the darkness that have allowed human activities to continue into the darker and colder hour of the hour after sunset. Fire gives human beings the first form of light and heat to cook food, make tools, have heat to live through cold winter and lighting to see in the dark.

Lighting is now not to be limited just for providing the light we need, but it is also for setting up the mood and atmosphere being created for an area. Proper lighting for an area needs a good combination of daylight conditions and artificial lights. There are many ways to improve lighting in a better cost and energy saving. LED lighting, a solid-state lamp that uses light-emitting diodes as the source of light, is a solution when it comes to energy-efficient lighting. LED lighting provides lower cost, energy saving and longer life span.

The major use of the light emitting diodes is for illumination. The light emitting diodes is recently used in light bulb, light strip or light tube for a longer lifetime and a lower energy consumption of the light. The light emitting diodes shows a new type of illumination which brings more convenience to our lives. Nowadays, light emitting diode light may be often seen in the market with various forms and affordable prices.

After the invention of LEDs, the neon indicator and incandescent lamps are gradually replaced. However, the cost of initial commercial LEDs was extremely high, making them rare to be applied for practical use. Also, LEDs only illuminated red light at early stage. The brightness of the light only could be used as indicator for it was too dark to illuminate an area. Unlike modern LEDs which are bound in transparent plastic cases, LEDs in early stage were packed in metal cases.

In 1878, Thomas Edison tried to make a usable light bulb after experimenting different materials. In November 1879, Edison filed a patent for an electric lamp with a carbon filament and keep testing to find the perfect filament for his light bulb. The highest melting point of any chemical element, tungsten, was known by Edison to be an excellent material for light bulb filaments, but the machinery needed to produce super-fine tungsten wire was not available in the late 19th century. Tungsten is still the primary material used in incandescent bulb filaments today.

Early candles were made in China in about 200 BC from whale fat and rice paper wick. They were made from other materials through time, like tallow, spermaceti, colza oil and beeswax until the discovery of paraffin wax which made production of candles cheap and affordable to everyone. Wick was also improved over time that made from paper, cotton, hemp and flax with different times and ways of burning. Although not a major light source now, candles are still here as decorative items and a light source in emergency situations. They are used for celebrations such as birthdays, religious rituals, for making atmosphere and as a decor.

Illumination has been improved throughout the times. Even now, the lighting device we used today are still being improved. From the illumination of the sun to the time when human can control fire for providing illumination which changed human history, we have been improving the lighting source for a better efficiency and sense. From the invention of candle, gas lamp, electric carbon arc lamp, kerosene lamp, light bulb, fluorescent lamp to LED lamp, the improvement of illumination shows the necessity of light in human lives.

There are various types of lighting apparatuses. When cost and light efficiency of LED have shown great effect compared with traditional lighting devices, people look for even better light output. It is important to recognize factors that can bring more satisfaction and light quality and flexibility.

Downlight devices are widely used in various places. It is beneficial to find out improvements of downlight devices to provide a more convenient and more safe downlight products.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Please refer to FIG. 87, which illustrates a downlight apparatus example.

In FIG. 8, a downlight apparatus includes a driver box 6006, a light source 6017, a light housing 6016, multiple leaf springs 6009, multiple shaft connectors 6008 and multiple pads 6013.

The light housing 6016 has a light holder 6014 and a rim 6015. The rim 6015 has a larger diameter than the light holder 6014. In some embodiments, the downlight apparatus is installed in a cavity or a junction box of a ceiling. The rim 6015 conceals the downlight body in the cavity, except exposing a light opening for light to emit outside the downlight apparatus.

The light holder 6014 has a holder plate 6021 and a holder wall 6022 defining a holder cavity 6023.

The light source 6017 is placed on an inner side of the holder plate 6021 in the holder cavity 6023.

The multiple leaf springs 6009 are placed between the driver box 6006 and the light holder 6016.

Each pad 6013 has a pad hole and a pad scraper surrounding the pad hole.

FIG. 16 shows an example of such pad in more detail. In FIG. 16, the pad 11 has a pad hole 113 and a pad scraper 112. The pad scrapper 112 are extended from an inner ring 111. The pad scrapper 112 has a protruding part, e.g. with a wave structure with protruding portions extending above the central body.

In FIG. 87, the pad scrapper engaging an electric insulation layer 6024 on a top side of the holder plate 6021.

The shaft connector 6008 sequentially passes through a spring hole 6012 of the leaf spring 6010, the pad hole and the top plate 6021 of the light holder 6016.

The protruding part of the pad scraper scraps a portion of the electric insulation layer 6024 of the holder plate 6021 for connecting the holder plate 6021 to ground.

For example, an electric insulation paint is attached on surface of a metal light holder 6016 to form an electric insulation layer mentioned here. To prevent electric shock for users to touch the light housing, it is important to get the light housing to a ground, particularly when the light housing is made of metal material.

In such case, the light housing is connected to ground via the shaft connector 6008, e.g. a metal screw or a metal shaft. Sometimes, the light housing is attached with electric insulation layer. The pad scraper is used for removing a portion of electric insulation layer to connect the light housing to ground.

In some embodiments, the leaf spring has a spring head 6011 and spring tail 6010.

The spring tail 6010 is rotated to extend outside the light holder 6016.

For example, FIG. 14 shows three leaf springs 5 are disposed on a light housing to rotate extending outside the light housing so as to expand a diameter to keep the downlight apparatus in a cavity or a junction box. The leaf springs may be rotated to expand or decrease the expanding diameter to attach or to detach the downlight from the installation cavity.

In some embodiments, the shaft connector is a first screw.

In some embodiments, the first screw is rotated to carry the pad scrapper to move for removing the portion of the electric insulation layer. For example, the screw is fixed to the pad scrapper so that when the screw is rotated, the pad scrapper is rotated too. When the pad scrapper rotates, it engages and removes a portion of the electric insulation layer on the light holder to get the leaf spring electrically connected to the light housing and then to connect to a ground.

In some embodiments, when the leaf spring is rotated, the pad scrapper is moved to erase the portion of the electric insulation layer. Another design is to keep the pad scrapper to move with the leaf spring. As mentioned above, the leaf spring is rotated when installing the downlight apparatus to a cavity or a junction box. In such way, the pad scrapper is carried to move for removing the portion of electric insulation layer on the light holder.

In FIG. 87, a bottom edge of the driver box has multiple rotation grooves 6007 for the spring tails to extend and move the multiple rotation grooves.

In some embodiments, a limiting unit is placed between the driver box and the light holder for limiting rotation of the leaf springs.

FIG. 6 shows such an example. The leaf spring is limited by the limiting unit 4 within a rotation angle.

In some embodiments, the pad scrapper is a circular wave structure.

FIG. 16 shows such an example of such pad scrapper 112.

In some embodiments, the protruding part is roughen to increase friction so as to more easily remove the surface paint on the light holder.

In some embodiments, the pads and the shaft connectors are made of metal material.

In some embodiments, the spring tail is extended for engaging a platform cavity for keeping the downlight apparatus in the platform cavity.

In FIG. 87, a driver plate 6005 is placed inside the driver box 6006.

The driver plate 6005 is kept a distance 6019 from a bottom of the driver box 6006 and the light holder 6016.

In some embodiments, the light source 6017 has a light source plate 6016 mounted with LED modules 6027.

The light source plate 6026 is connected to the light holder 6016 to connect to the ground.

In some embodiments, multiple metal shafts 6028 are used for electrically connecting the light source plate 6026 and the light holder 6016.

In some embodiments, the leaf spring engages a junction box to connect to the ground. Junction boxes are used widely in some countries and are known to persons of ordinary skilled in the art and thus are not illustrated. The junction box may be connected to ground. When the leaf spring engages the junction box, the light housing is also connected to the ground with the connection to the leaf spring.

In some embodiments, the shaft connector is electrically connected to a ground electrode disposed inside the driver box. For example, a ground electrode may be placed in the driver box 6006 to further connecting to a ground wire connecting to a ground.

In some embodiments, a top plate of the driver box has a wire socket 6002 and a manual switch 6003. The manual switch 6003 may be operated to change a setting, e.g. a mixed light color temperature, a mixed light color, or other parameter. The wire socket 6002 may be used for connecting a power wire and/or a ground wire.

The wire socket is connected to a power wire and the manual switch is used for adjusting a setting of the light source.

In some embodiments, the top plate of the driver box further has a rotation switch 6004 for continuously setting a maximum light intensity of the light source. For example, the light source may emit an X light intensity level to its maximum, the rotation switch 6004 may be operated to change the maximum light intensity to any continuous ratio of the X light intensity level within a predetermined range.

In some embodiments, a heat dissipation plate is placed between the light holder and the driver box for carrying away both heat of the driver box and the light source.

For example, FIG. 32 shows a heat dissipation plate 8831 is placed between the light holder and the driver box. FIG. 35 shows such heat dissipation plate 8831 as an elongated bar shape structure.

In some embodiments, the heat dissipation plate has a portion not covered by the light holder and the driver box. FIG. 32 and FIG. 35 shows such arrangement.
