Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the filament support 100 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure includes a main rod 110, a plurality of branch rods 120 and a plurality of support members 130.

The plurality of branch rods 120 are all installed on the main rod 110; the support members 130 are arranged at ends of at least some of the branch rods 120, both ends of the support member 130 are curved or bent towards a same side, resulting in that the support member 130 surrounds to form a penetrating zone 131, and an opening 132 for communicating the penetrating zone 131 is formed between both ends of the support member 130.

For example, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the main rod 110 is provided with the plurality of branch rods 120. One end of the branch rod 120 is connected with the main rod 110, and the other end of the branch rod 120 is connected with the support member 130. Both ends of the support member 130 are curved or bent towards a same side, resulting in that the support member 130 surrounds to form a penetrating zone 131, and an opening 132 for communicating the penetrating zone 131 is formed between both ends of the support member 130. When installing the filament 200 on the filament holder 100, the workers can clamp the filament 200 into the penetrating zone 131 through the opening 132, thereby realizing the installation of the filament 200 on the filament support 100. The installation process of the filament 200 is simple. By arranging a plurality of branch rods 120 on the main rod 110, and arranging the support members 130 at the ends of the branch rods 120, the workers can arrange each support members 130 in different shapes, thereby controlling the overall shape of the filament 200. The plurality of support members 130 are provided to improve the diversity of the shape of the filament 200.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support member 130 is in a shape of penannular jade ring (in an annular shape with a notch). Each part of the support member 130 in the shape of penannular jade ring has little measurement discrepancy and is convenient to manufacture.

In an implementation, the support member 130 can also be in a shape of square ring with an opening 132.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to FIG. 1, the main rod 110 includes an installation segment 111 and a connection segment 112, the branch rods 120 are installed on the installation segment 111, and the connection segment 112 is used for detachably connecting to a lamp holder. By setting a detachable connection form between the filament support 100 and the lamp holder 300, the filament support 100 and the lamp holder 300 can be manufactured separately, and thus reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the filament support 100 and the lamp holder 300. Due to the detachable connection between the filament support 100 and the lamp holder 300, the filament support 100 is easily installed on and detached from the lamp holder 300 by the workers, resulting in that the installation segments 111 of different main rods 110 can be set by the workers in a same style, and the filament supports 100 in different styles can be installed on the same lamp holder 300, so as to reduce the production cost of the lamp.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, a section profile of the connection segment 112 is a polygon. For example, the cross section profile of the connection segment 112 can be a triangle, or can be a quadrangle.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to FIG. 1, the main rod 110 further includes a butting segment 113, both ends of the butting segment 113 are connected with the installation segment 111 and the connection segment 112 respectively, the butting segment 113 is in a trumpet shape with a cross section increased in a direction towards the connection segment 112, the butting segment 113 has a butting surface formed at an end thereof close to the connection segment 112, and the butting surface is used for butting to the lamp holder 300. When the filament support 100 is installed on the lamp holder 300, the connection segment 112 can be inserted into the lamp holder 300. In this case, the butting surface can be butted with the lamp holder 300. The setting of the butting segment 113 can limit the length of the main rod 110 being inserted into the lamp holder 300.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the main rod 110, the branch rod 120 and the support member 130 are made of a same material and are integrated into a whole. Furthermore, when manufacturing the filament holder 100, the workers can cast the entire filament support 100 by using a model at one time, which improves the production efficiency of the filament support 100.

Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the lamp according to the embodiment of the second aspect of the present disclosure includes the filament support 100 provided in the embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure and a filament 200, and the filament 200 is passed thorough the penetrating zone 131.

For example, the cross-sectional dimensions of each part of the butting segment 113 can be larger than the cross-sectional dimensions of the connection segment 112. The butting segment 113 can be butted with the edge of the installation groove 301 to limit the depth of the filament support 100 being inserted into the installation groove 301 after the connection segment 112 is inserted into the installation groove 301; at the same time, the butting section 113 can be set to increase the stability of the connection between the filament support 100 and the lamp holder 300.

In an implementation, the external surface of the connection segment 112 can be provided with external threads, and the groove wall of the installation groove 301 can be provided with internal threads. In this case, the connection segment 112 is in threaded connection with the installation groove 301.
