Abstract
An easily assembled and detached wall lamp mounting device comprising a retaining seat, and a locking seat mounted on the retaining seat at one end; and another end of the locking seat being suspended with a wall lamp. The retaining seat is formed by a supporting tube; a receptacle; and a nut stud. The lamp tube has a plug at a position coupled to the retaining seat; and the plug is connected with an electric wire therein. The lamp tube is engaged with a positioning nut. After the plug is inserted into the receptacle of the retaining seat, the plug is tightly screwed into the nut stud for positioning the lamp tube to the retaining seat. In packaging, transferring or storage the lamp seat, the locking seat and the lamp rod are pulled out from the retaining seat in advance for reducing the volume for storage and transfer.
Description




FIELD OF THE INVENTION




The present invention relates to wall lamp assembly structure, and particularly to a easily assembled and detached wall lamp mounting device, wherein in packaging, transferring or storage the lamp seat, the locking seat and the lamp rod are pulled out from the retaining seat in advance for reducing the volume for storage and transfer.




BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION




Prior wire connection devices of lamps, such as wall lamps, stand type lamps, and ceiling lamps, use studs and nuts to lock the components. In assembly, not only the user is easy to be harmed, but also other locking tools (such as spanners, openers, etc.) are necessary. Moreover, in assembly, electric wires are easy to expose out and some dangers are induced. Thereby, the prior art is not suitable to be assembled by the user himself (or herself). In general, since in the prior art design, the wire is possibly exposed out if the assembly work is performed by the user, the manufacturer assembles the device in advance, namely, the wire box is assembled with inserting rods in the manufacturing process. However, this will induce that a large space is required for transferring and storing and thus cost is increased.




SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION




Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a easily assembled and detached wall lamp mounting device, wherein in packaging, transferring or storage the lamp seat, the locking seat and the lamp rod are pulled out from the retaining seat in advance for reducing the volume for storage and transfer.




To achieve above object, the present invention provide an easily assembled and detached wall lamp mounting device comprising a retaining seat, and a locking seat mounted on the retaining seat at one end; and another end of the locking seat being suspended with a wall lamp. The retaining seat is formed by a supporting tube firmly secured to a wall and a surface of which has at least one through hole and locking sleeve welded within the through hole of the supporting tube; a receptacle installed within the locking sleeve and having an electric wire therewithin; a nut stud locked to the locking sleeve and exactly resisting against an upper side of the receptacle. The locking seat is formed by a lamp tube extended from a top of the wall lamp and a plug in the lamp tube. The lamp tube has a plug at a position coupling to the retaining seat; and the plug is connected with an electric wire therein. The lamp tube is engaged with a positioning nut; after the plug is inserted into the receptacle of the retaining seat; the plug is tightly screwed into the top screwed section of the nut stud for positioning the lamp tube to the retaining seat.




The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS




Referring to

FIGS. 1 and 2

, the structure of the present invention is clearly shown. The present invention includes a retaining seat


1


, and a locking seat


2


mounted on the retaining seat


1


at one end. Another end of the locking seat


2


is suspended with a wall lamp.




The retaining seat


1


is formed by a supporting tube


11


firmly secured to a wall and a surface of which has at least one through hole


111


, a locking sleeve


12


welded within the through hole


111


of the supporting tube


11


; a receptacle


13


installed within the locking sleeve


12


and having an electric wire


131


therewithin, and a nut stud


14


locked to the locking sleeve


12


and exactly pressing against an upper side of the receptacle


13


. The through hole


111


of the supporting tube


11


can be engaged with a plurality of wall lamp.




The inner side of the locking sleeve


12


is installed with a stepped via hole


121


. The receptacle


13


can be inserted into the via hole


121


and exactly resists against the stepped edge


122


. The circular surface of the via hole


121


is formed with an inner threaded hole


123


for locking the nut stud


14


. A confining hole


124


is formed by protruding into the circular surface of the via hole


121


. A center of the nut stud


14


has an electric wire receiving hole


141


. An outer threaded surface of the nut stud


14


is exactly locked into the inner threaded hole


123


of the locking sleeve


12


. A gap S is formed at the outer surface of the receptacle


13


along the radial direction so as to prevent the receptacle


13


from rotation as locking the nut stud


14


. After the nut stud


14


is locked to the locking sleeve


12


, an embedded stud


15


is tightly locked into the confining hole


124


of the locking sleeve


12


so as to integrate the nut stud


14


and the locking sleeve


12


as an integral body to prevent the nut stud


14


from rotation.




The locking seat


2


is formed by a lamp tube


21


extended from a top of the wall lamp and a plug


22


in the lamp tube


21


.




The lamp tube


21


has a plug


22


at a position coupling to the retaining seat


1


. The plug


22


is connected with an electric wire


221


therein. A lamp tube


21


is engaged with a positioning nut


23


. After the plug


22


is inserted into the receptacle


13


of the retaining seat


1


. The plug


22


can be tightly screwed into the top screwed section


143


of the nut stud


14


for positioning the lamp tube


21


to the retaining seat


1


.




The operation of the present invention will be described herein. Referring to

FIG. 3

, the locking seat


2


is inserted into the retaining seat


1


and the plug


22


at a bottom of the locking seat


2


exactly inserts into the receptacle


13


of the retaining seat


1


so that the retaining seat


1


is conducted to the locking seat


2


. Then the positioning nut


23


is tightly locked so that the locking seat


2


is positioned above the retaining seat


1


. When it is desired to take the locking seat


2


from the retaining seat


1


, it is only necessary to screw the positioning nut


23


. Then the locking seat


2


is pulled out from the retaining seat


1


.




Thereby, when packaging, transferring or storage the lamp seat, the locking seat


2


and the lamp rod


24


are pulled out from the retaining seat


1


in advance for reducing the volume for storage and transferring. Since the retaining seat


1


is assembled in a wire connection box D in advance, in assembly, it is only needed to insert the locking seat


2


into the retaining seat


1


for use rather than using any stud or locking device. Thereby, the assembly of the present invention is convenient and easily.




The present invention is thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
