BACKGROUND

Most traditional decorative lightings are provided with a plurality of spaced bulbs arranged on a long conducting wire, and the entire string is powered on and may have decorative effectives of lighting and flashing with one end of the conducting wire plugged into the power supply. However, such traditional string has a more monotonous lighting effect due to the linearly arranged bulbs; and meanwhile, it is troublesome and inconvenient to wind the string around some place such as a Christmas tree in use, or recycle the string after use.

In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the connecting member 130 includes a fixing portion 131. The fixing portion 131 is provided with a snapping slot 131 matching the encapsulation colloid 115. The encapsulation colloid 115 and the auxiliary wire 120 are snapped into the snapping slot 131a, thereby the encapsulation colloid 115 is connected to the auxiliary wire 120. In order to prevent the connecting member 130 from departing, the encapsulation colloid 115 and the auxiliary wire 120 are fixed to the snapping slot 131a by glue. In an embodiment, the connecting member 130 further includes a decoration portion 132 that is connected to the fixing portion 131. The shape of the decoration portion 132 may be a star, a triangle, or the like.


The LED meshwork lamp 100 provided by the present disclosure may be powered by a high voltage power supply (such as a 220V power supply). Moreover, the third conducting wire 113 is connected to the first conducting wire 111 and the second conducting wire 112 through the encapsulation colloid 115, which is beneficial for increasing the strength of the LED string light 110 and preventing the SMD LED 114 from falling off when the LED string light 110 is pulled.
