As a lighting source, LED has such advantages as energy conservation, environmental protection and high efficiency, which has been applied more and more for lighting in multiple occasions. Normal LED light fitting is usually installed by way of mounting and fixing the LED light source on a light fitting casing through a number of screws. This structure is complicated for installation. Especially for a large light fitting, the installation is time and energy consuming, and it is easy to cause installation misalignment during screw tightening. More seriously, it causes damage to the light source. At the same time, it is very inconvenient to remove the LED light source on site in light fitting removal for repair. Moreover, in the applications where there is a high requirement for light fitting protection class, the light fitting casing needs to be in a special form of structure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The technical scheme of the present invention will be described in detail below in combination with figures and embodiments.

As shown in FIG. 1˜FIG. 3, an LED light fitting facilitating assembly and disassembly provided by the present invention includes a light fitting casing 1 and a light source module strip 2. The LED light fitting in this embodiment is a kind of reflective type LED light fitting. The light fitting casing 1 is an elongate tensile aluminum profile in an arched form and an arched part thereof is in a closed structure. In a tensile direction of the light fitting casing 1, a slot 10 is located near a bottom end of the light fitting casing 1. The light source module strip 2 is in one integral structure that is able to be assembled and disassembled independently in the LED light fitting. The integral structure includes an LED light source 20 and a circuit board 21 on which the LED light source 20 is soldered. The circuit board 21 has an electric plug 4 installed on one end thereof. The circuit board 21 is attached onto an LED light source installation base 22. The light fitting casing 1 has end covers 5 and 6 on both ends respectively, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5. The end covers 5 and 6 have a gasket 9 installed on inner sides and are fixed on the light fitting casing 1 with screws. The end cover 5 has a through-hole 50 provided thereon. If the LED light source is installed on one side of the light fitting casing, only one through-hole need to be provided. If the LED light source is installed on both sides, two through-holes should be provided. The LED light source installation base 22 is inserted into the slot 10 of light fitting casing 1 through the through-hole 50. To further improve heat dissipation from the light fitting, the LED light source installation base 22 and the light fitting casing 1 must have a contact surface with a certain area between them, so that heat produced by the light source module strip 2 is able to be dissipated out through the light fitting casing 1. The end cover 6 has an electric socket 7 installed on the inner side. After the LED light source installation base 22 is inserted into the light fitting casing 1, the electric plug 4 on the end of the circuit board 21 is inserted into the electric socket 7 exactly to form an electric connection. To facilitate plugging of the LED light source installation base 22 from the slot 10 of the light fitting casing 1 more conveniently, the LED light source installation base 22 has a pull 11 provided on one end. Then, a sealing cover 8 is installed spirally outside the through-hole 50.

The light fitting casing 1 has a light-reflecting film affixed on an inner sidewall of the arched part. A relative position between the LED light source 20 and the light-reflecting film and an arch camber of the light fitting casing 1 is determined by a conventional lighting calculation software according to illumination and a lighting effect actually required, such as a dialux software (a kind of design software applied in a light illumination field to calculate and simulate accurately the lighting effect), or other calculating software.

As show in FIG. 6, in removing the LED light fitting provided by the present invention for repair, just unscrew open the sealing cover 8 and then drag the pull 11 on the LED light source installation base 22 to pull the light source module strip 2 out. With no removing tool necessary on site, the operation becomes very easy.

FIG. 7 is an exploded structural view of another embodiment of the present invention. The difference from the above embodiment is that this embodiment is a straight down type LED light fitting. On each LED light source 20 of the light source module strip 2, a lens 23 is provided. A light-emitting surface of the light fitting casing 1 has a glass face shield 3 installed thereon.

What is provided in the above embodiment is an embodiment for a kind of elongate reflective type LED lamp under the technical scheme of the present invention. However, the scope protected by the present invention is not limited to that embodiment. Obviously, the technicians in this field can make various modifications and variations to the embodiments of the present invention without divorcing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims and equal technology of the present invention, for example, design the light fitting casing into round or square shape or other shapes according to the need of beauty and practicability; have the LED on the LED light source module strip attach directly onto the light source installation base to increase the heat dissipation efficiency, omitting such a layer of structure as circuit board. Then the present invention intends to include these modifications and variations.
