Specifically, in this example, the first auxiliary panel 122 is connected above the main panel, and the second auxiliary panel 123 and the third auxiliary panel 124 are disposed on left and right sides of the first auxiliary panel so that the unfolded lighting device 100 is T-shaped. Further, the first auxiliary panel 122 may also be disposed on a left or right side of the main panel 121, and when folded, the first auxiliary panel 122 overlaps with the main panel 121. Furthermore, more auxiliary panels may be connected to the second auxiliary panel 123 and the third auxiliary panel 124, or the third auxiliary panel 124 may not be provided.

A luminous flux of light emitted by the main panel 121 or the auxiliary panel at the maximum power is greater than or equal to 2000 lm and less than or equal to 5000 lm. The panel assembly 12 includes a shell for light to pass through.

In this case, the luminous flux of the light emitted by the panel assembly 12 at the maximum power is greater than or equal to 8000 lm and less than or equal to 20000 lm. In the case where the shell is made of a translucent material, the luminous flux of the light emitted by the panel assembly at the maximum power is greater than or equal to 6000 lm and less than or equal to 17000 lm.

A color temperature of the panel assembly 12 is greater than or equal to 4200 k and less than or equal to 6000 k. A color rendering index of the panel assembly 12 is greater than or equal to 80, and a test result shows that a color rendering index of the lighting device 100 in this example may be greater than 82. Further, a rated voltage of the power supply assembly 13 is greater than or equal to 40 V. Preferably, the rated voltage is greater than or equal to 50 V. The present disclosure further defines an illuminance efficiency coefficient of the lighting device. The illuminance efficiency coefficient is a ratio of the luminous flux of the light emitted by the panel assembly 12 at the maximum power to a volume of the lighting device in a folded state.

In some examples, the plurality of cells are pouch-type cells and each of the plurality of cells is a flat bag-like structure.
The lighting device 100 includes an unfolded state shown in
The base 11 is a bottom base extending substantially along a first plane P1, and the main panel 121 extends substantially along a second plane P2. The first auxiliary panel 122 is rotatably connected to the main panel 121 about a first axis 100a, and the first axis 100a is substantially parallel to the first plane P1 and is substantially parallel to the second plane P2. The second auxiliary panel 123 is rotatably connected to the first auxiliary panel 122 about a second axis 100b, and the second axis 100b is substantially perpendicular to the first axis 100a. The third auxiliary panel 124 is rotatably connected to the first auxiliary panel 122 about a third axis 100c, and the third axis 100c is substantially perpendicular to the first axis 100a and is substantially parallel to the second axis 100b.
When the lighting device 100 is in the folded state shown in
A direction in which the power supply assembly 13 is coupled to the main panel 121 is substantially perpendicular to the first plane P1.
Specifically, a control device is further disposed inside the base 11 and basically disposed on a rear side of the base 11 in the front-and-rear direction so that when the first auxiliary panel 122, the second auxiliary panel 123, and the third auxiliary panel 124 rotate to the foremost side, the lighting device 100 can also maintain stability without overturning. It is to be understood that when the lighting device 100 is in the folded state, the panel assembly 12 at least partially covers the power supply assembly 13 so as to protect the power supply assembly. More specifically, in the case where the lighting device 100 is in the unfolded state, a volume of the lighting device 100 is greater than or equal to 42 dm3 and less than or equal to 67 dm3; and in the case where the lighting device 100 is in the folded state, the volume of the lighting device 100 is greater than or equal to 10 dm3 and less than or equal to 15 dm3. In this example, power of the lighting device 100 is configured to be greater than or equal to 100 W and less than or equal to 200 W. Therefore, a power-to-volume ratio of the lighting device 100 is configured to be greater than or equal to 4.8 W/dm3 and less than or equal to 17 W/dm3. Further, in the case where the power-to-volume ratio of the lighting device 100 is configured to be greater than or equal to 6 W/dm3 and less than or equal to 10 W/dm3, the lighting device 100 has the best transportation, storage, and use states.
The lighting device 100 further includes a first handle 15 and a second handle 16. The first handle 15 is disposed on the first auxiliary panel 122 and the second handle 16 is disposed on the main panel 121. In the case where the lighting device 100 is in the unfolded state, the first handle 15 may be operated so as to transport the lighting device 100. In the case where the lighting device 100 is in the folded state, the second handle 16 may be operated so as to transport the lighting device 100. The first handle 15 and the second handle 16 are provided so that the lighting device 100 can be quickly transported in any state, and no interference exists between the handles and the lighting device 100 during transportation.
In this example, the base 11 is further provided with a positioning groove 111, and each of the second auxiliary panel 123 and the third auxiliary panel 124 is further provided with a positioning protrusion 17. In the case where the lighting device 100 is in the folded state, the positioning protrusion 17 on each of the second auxiliary panel 123 and the third auxiliary panel 124 mates with the positioning groove 111 on the base 11. In this manner, when the lighting device 100 is in the folded state, the lighting device 100 can maintain stability so that the following case is avoided: the second auxiliary panel 123 or the third auxiliary panel 124 is detached from the base when the lighting device 100 shakes. The base 11 is made of a flexible anti-drop material so that the drop resistance of the lighting device 100 can be effectively increased. In addition, the positioning protrusion 17 is made of a rigid material and installed on the second auxiliary panel 123 and the third auxiliary panel 124, so as to effectively ensure the stability of the lighting device 100 in the folded state.
The base 11 is provided with a circuit board and a button circuit board, where the circuit board is disposed in a middle of the base 11, and the button circuit board and a corresponding button region 115 are disposed on a side of the base 11. Related lines connected to the circuit board extend in the casing of the main panel 121, and some lines are connected to the button circuit board. It is conceivable that the button circuit board and the circuit board form a modular connection. As shown in
The first button 1152 and the second button 1153 are respectively configured to increase and decrease a brightness value of the panel assembly 12. Further, when the first button 1152 or the second button 1153 is continuously pressed for more than a set time, the brightness value of the panel assembly 12 directly jumps to a lowest or highest brightness of the panel assembly 12. The third button 1154 is operated so as to switch the on and off of the main panel and the multiple auxiliary panels. Further, when the third button 1154 is continuously pressed for more than a set time, the panel assembly 12 enters the fourth illumination mode. The function position 1155 includes a connecting slot and a cover for closing the connecting slot, where the connecting slot is configured to be in a shape for being connected to an external line, such as a universal serial bus (USB) interface.
As shown in
The light board 1214 or the circuit board is a waterproof structure with a waterproof layer on its surface. The waterproof layer covers at least part of a whole composed of an insulating layer and a first-type electronic component with basically the same thickness through vapor deposition. The waterproof layer covers the entire light board 1214 through plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Therefore, the light board 1214 will not come into contact with external dust and water vapor, so as to achieve dustproof, waterproof, and corrosion-proof effects.
As an implementation manner, the heat conducting member 1217 is supported by a heat conducting silicone pad with a thermal conductivity greater than or equal to 1.5 W/(mK) so that the heat of the heat sink 1215 can be quickly dissipated. It is to be understood that the heat conducting member 1217 may also be made of heat conducting materials described below. In the case where the heat conducting member 1217 is made of a carbon nanotube composite material, the carbon nanotube composite material is added to an inside of a rubber elastomer, and the carbon nanotube composite material and a heat conductor with excellent uniformity and a high thermal conductivity are achieved through a high thermal conductivity of the carbon nanotube composite material. In the case where the heat conducting member 1217 is made of a composite material of multilayer graphene and its derivative (graphene oxide), a heat dissipation effect of the light body is enhanced through an excellent Young's modulus, excellent thermal stability, and an excellent thermal conductivity (4000 W/(mK) to 5000 W/(mK)) of graphene. A ceramic layer with a high thermal conductivity may also be attached to the surface of the light board 1214. No adhesive is provided between the light board 1214 and the ceramic layer. The light board 1214 is bonded to the ceramic layer through an atomic force between the light board 1214 and crystal grains of the ceramic layer so that a thermal resistance between the light board 1214 and the ceramic layer can be reduced, and thus heat of the light beads 1214a is quickly transferred from the light board 1214 to the ceramic layer and then a surface of the first casing portion 1212. The heat conducting member 1217 may also configured to be other materials with an excellent heat conducting effect and excellent thermal stability, which is not repeated herein.
When the heat conducting member 1217 transfers heat to the first casing portion 1212, in order that the heat is quickly dissipated, the first casing portion 1212 is further provided with heat dissipation ribs 1212a. The heat dissipation ribs 1212a are distributed around an outer surface of the first casing 1211 so that a surface area of the outer surface of the first casing portion 1212 can be effectively increased, thereby increasing heat dissipation efficiency. It is to be understood that the heat dissipation ribs 1212a may also be disposed on an outer surface of the second casing portion 1213, so as to further increase the heat dissipation efficiency of the panel. In fact, through the preceding heat dissipation structure, in the case where the light beads 1214a inside the panel is in operation, the heat generated by the light beads 1214a can be quickly transferred to the heat conducting member 1217 through the heat sink 1215 and quickly transferred to the first casing portion 1212 through the heat conducting member 1217, thereby quickly dissipating heat in the accommodation space 1213c. In this example, the heat generated by the light beads 1214a is dissipated through heat transfer and air cooling, and the casing 1211 does not need to be provided with separate heat dissipation air ports, thereby effectively increasing the leakproofness of the panel. To further increase the leakproofness of the panel, a sealing structure is further provided.
A material of the casing 1211 includes plastic, or the material of the casing includes resin or similar polymers. A material of at least the second casing portion 1213 includes plastic. A proportion of the plastic in the casing 1211 or the second casing portion 1213 should exceed 80%. In the existing art, aluminum sheets are used as the main heat dissipation elements of the heat dissipation structure, and even the casing made of aluminum is directly used. However, an aluminum sheet structure is bulky in volume and heavy in weight and is inconvenient in many aspects in actual use. In this example, the material of the casing is the plastic. After multiple tests, while the overall mass of the panel is reduced by 40% and the overall thickness of the panel is reduced by 50%, it is ensured that the heat dissipation effect is better than that of an existing structure. In the test of the heat dissipation effect, the temperature of an outer edge of the heat dissipation rib 1212a is at least between 40° C. and 60° C., ensuring that the temperature is within a safe touch range of a user, the temperature of a peripheral side and other positions of the casing 1211 is also maintained between 45° C. and 60° C. Based on the heat dissipation structure in this example, a thickness D of the panel assembly 12 may be configured to be greater than or equal to 15 mm and less than or equal to 35 mm, and, in particular, may be configured to be greater than or equal to 20 mm and less than or equal to 32 mm so that the entire panel assembly is lighter. The aluminum sheet structure is replaced with plastic heat dissipation ribs 1212a, and the heat sink 1215 and the heat conducting member 1217 sequentially transfer heat to the heat dissipation ribs 1212a through heat conduction. The combination of multiple materials and the multilayer structure has both portability and the heat dissipation effect.
Specifically, the first casing portion 1212 and the second casing portion 1213 are provided with a slot structure. As an implementation manner, the first casing portion 1212 is formed with a groove 1212b, and the second casing portion 1213 is formed with a protrusion 1213a. In the case where the first casing portion 1212 and the second casing portion 1213 are connected to form a whole, the protrusion 1213a mates with the groove 1212b, thereby forming a first layer of sealing structure. It is to be understood that it is also feasible that the first casing portion 1212 is formed with a protrusion, the second casing portion 1213 is formed with a groove, and the protrusion mates with the groove so as to achieve leakproofness, which is not limited herein. In this example, the second casing portion 1213 is further formed with an opening 1213b which can allow light to be emitted out. Over the opening 1213b, a transparent cover 1213d is further provided for light to pass through, and the transparent cover 1213d closes the opening 1213b. In this example, the transparent cover 1213d and the second casing portion 1213 are also provided with a slot structure basically the same as the slot structure provided on the first casing portion 1212 and the second casing portion 1213, which is not repeated herein. In fact, the slot structure provided on the first casing portion 1212 and the second casing portion 1213 and the slot structure provided on the transparent cover 1213d and the second casing portion 1213 together form the first layer of sealing structure for the accommodation space 1213c.
A sealing ring 1218 that mates with the transparent cover 1213d is further provided in the accommodation space 1213c. Specifically, the first casing portion 1212 is formed with or connected to a first limiting portion 1212c that mates with the sealing ring 1218, and the sealing ring 1218 is formed with a second limiting portion 1218a that mates with the first limiting portion 1212c. When the first limiting portion 1212c mates with the second limiting portion 1218a, the sealing ring 1218 mates with the first casing portion 1212 and is at least partially fixed to the first casing portion 1212. A sealing groove 1218b is further provided on a side of the sealing ring 1218 facing away from the second limiting portion 1218a, and the transparent cover 1213d can be at least partially disposed in the sealing groove 1218b, thereby achieving secondary sealing. The transparent cover 1213d is also compressed by the second casing portion 1213 and further compressed into the sealing groove 1218b, thereby enhancing a sealing effect.

In another manner of description, when an included angle α between the first auxiliary panel and the main illumination plane is ≤180°, part of the multiple auxiliary panels forms the main illumination region; when α≥180°, part of the multiple auxiliary panels forms the auxiliary illumination region. In another manner of description, the lighting device has a projection plane 102 that receives light and is parallel to the main illumination plane 101, and it is assumed that the projection plane 102 is a target that actually receives illumination. Light emitted by the multiple auxiliary panels is projected on the projection plane 102 so as to form an actual illumination area. In the case where the multiple auxiliary panels are parallel to the projection plane 102, the light emitted by the multiple auxiliary panels is projected on the projection plane 102 so as to form a maximum illumination area. In the case where a ratio of the actual illumination area to the maximum illumination area is less than or equal to 0.5, the multiple auxiliary panels form the auxiliary illumination region.
Further, in the second manner of description, the first auxiliary panel has a first illumination plane from which light is emitted, the second auxiliary panel has a second illumination plane from which light is emitted, and an angle β is formed between the first illumination plane and the second illumination plane. In the case where 90°≤α≤180° and β≥180°, both the first auxiliary panel 122 and the second auxiliary panel 123 form the main illumination region. In the case where α≥180° and β≥180°, in addition to the first auxiliary panel 122, part of the second auxiliary panel 123 can also form the auxiliary illumination region. In the case where α≥180° and β≤180°, the first auxiliary panel 122 and the second auxiliary panel 123 form the auxiliary illumination region. Normally, for a better illumination effect, the user does not configure the first auxiliary panel 122 to be in a state where α≤90°. For this special case where α≤90°, except the main panel, all the auxiliary panels form the auxiliary illumination region. In the example, when the third auxiliary panel 124 is further provided, the third auxiliary panel 124 is configured in the same manner as the second auxiliary panel 123.

The first connecting portion 21 at least partially covers the external structure 210 so as to form a stable and reliable connection. In other words, the first connecting portion 21 includes a casing at least provided with an opening 211, and the opening 211 places a connected part of the external structure 210 and connects the connected part to the casing. As a manner of connection to a common external structure, this example provides a schematic view of connection to a rod-shaped external structure. Specifically, the first connecting portion 21 may be configured to be a ring, a hook, or a claw-shaped structure hung on or connected to the rod-shaped external structure 210.

A diameter of the first cavity 1121 is greater than or equal to a maximum diameter of the sliding portion 220. The first cavity 1121 accommodates the sliding portion 220 to be connected to the second cavity 1122. The sliding portion 220 moves in the first cavity 1121 and enters the second cavity 1122 until the sliding portion 220 is connected to the second cavity 1122.
The sliding portion 220 is formed with a first sliding portion 221 and a second sliding portion 222 with a diameter greater than a diameter of the first sliding portion 221. The second cavity 1122 includes a first connecting groove 1122a and a second connecting groove 1122b. After the sliding portion 220 is connected to the sliding groove 112, the first connecting groove 1122a is connected to the first sliding portion 221 correspondingly, and the second connecting groove 1122b is connected to the second sliding portion 222 correspondingly. In other words, the first connecting groove 1122a and the first sliding portion 221 are at least partially the same in diameter, and the second connecting groove 1122b and the second sliding portion 222 are at least partially the same in diameter.
The base 11 is further provided with an accommodation cavity 114 for accommodating and placing the sliding groove 112. Specifically, the sliding groove 112 is detachably connected to the accommodation cavity 114 by a fastener.

Specifically, the locking member 242 is provided at one end of the transmission member 243, and the operating member 241 is connected at the other end of the transmission member 243. The transmission member 243 passes through the first connecting portion 21 so that the locking member 242 is located on an inner side of the first connecting portion 21 and in contact with the external structure 210, and the operating member 241 is located on an outer side of the first connecting portion 21. The locking member 242 may be made of a rigid material or a flexible and elastic material such as rubber.
As shown in
A first auxiliary panel 320 and a main panel 310 of the lighting device 300 are rotatably connected, and a locking damping mechanism 330 is provided. Specifically, the first auxiliary panel 320 is connected to or formed with a pivot 321 with a hollow interior. The main panel 310 is connected to or formed with a sleeve 311 for connecting the pivot 321, where the sleeve 311 has a hollow interior and two open ends. When the first auxiliary panel 320 switches between a folded state and a use state, the pivot 321 rotates relative to the sleeve 311 around an adjustment axis 330a. The sleeve 311 includes a first sleeve 311a and a second sleeve 311b connected to two ends of the pivot 321, respectively.
The locking damping mechanism 330 is provided between the pivot 321 and the sleeve 311 and provides a first resistance for the relative movement of the first auxiliary panel 320. In the case where the first resistance is large enough, the locking damping mechanism can lock the first auxiliary panel 320 and the main panel 310. The first resistance being large enough means that the first resistance is greater than a preset value determined by a specific structure of the locking damping mechanism 330. Specifically, in the case where the first resistance is greater than the preset value, a rotation force provided by the user and an additional force from the outside on the lighting device 300 are much less than the resistance so that the locking damping mechanism 330 locks the first auxiliary panel 320 and the main panel 310.
The locking damping mechanism 330 includes an adjustment member 331 configured to adjust a magnitude of the resistance provided by the locking damping mechanism 330. The adjustment member 331 is disposed at one end of the first sleeve 311a or one end of the second sleeve 311b. The adjustment member 331 is formed with an operating portion 3311 disposed on an outside of the sleeve and an abutting portion 3312 extending into the sleeve 311. The operating portion 3311 may be a knob, a wrench, or similar operable members. The abutting portion 3312 may abut against other structures of the sleeve 311 in a certain state. In this example, the adjustment member 331 is disposed at an outer end of the second sleeve 311b and can close an opening of the second sleeve 311b. The adjustment member 331 is connected to or formed with an adjustment rod 332 that can move according to the rotation of the adjustment member 331. Specifically, one end of the adjustment rod 332 is fixed in the abutting portion 3312 and the other end of the adjustment rod 332 passes through the second sleeve 311b and extends into the pivot 321.
The locking damping mechanism 330 further includes a damper piece, where the damper piece includes a first damper piece 333 and a second damper piece 334. The first damper piece 333 mates with the adjustment piece 331 for the user to adjust a resistance between the main panel 310 and the first auxiliary panel 320. Specifically, the first damper piece 333 includes a first fixed member 3331 and a first driven member 3332 that mate with each other. A first end of the first fixed member 3331 is connected to a second end of the second sleeve 311b, and a second end of the first fixed member 3331 passes through an opening of the second end of the second sleeve 311b and is fixedly connected to one end of the pivot 321. Specifically, the second end of the first fixed member 3331 is fixedly connected to the pivot 321 by a fastener. The first end of the first fixed member 3331 abuts against the abutting portion 3312 of the adjustment member 331 in a certain state. The first driven member 3332 is movably disposed in one end of the hollow pivot 321. The first end of the first fixed member 3331 is disposed in a hollow part of the pivot 321, and the second end of the first fixed member 3331 is close to an edge of the second sleeve 311b and the first fixed member 3331. Specifically, the second end of the second sleeve 311b is formed with a convex edge, that is, a diameter of the opening of the second end is less than a diameter of the second sleeve 311b so that part of the first fixed member 3331 and the first driven member 3332 can clamp the convex edge. Through and aligned connecting holes 3333 are provided in the middle of the first fixed member 3331 and the first driven member 3332, the adjustment rod 332 passes through the connecting holes 3333, and an end of the adjustment rod 332 is connected to the first driven member 3332. The end of the adjustment rod 332 is formed with a thread, and correspondingly, the connecting hole 3333 of the first driven member 3332 is formed with a thread or connected to an accessory with a thread so that the first driven member 3332 is connected to the adjustment rod 332 and rotates as the adjustment rod 332 rotates. A gasket 3334 is further provided between the first fixed member 3331 and the first driven member 3332 and the convex edge and may especially be made of a flexible material so as to improve friction damping. The specific use process is as follows: the user operates the operating portion 3311 of the adjustment member 331 to rotate so that the adjustment member 331 advances along the adjustment axis 330a toward the sleeve 311, and the adjustment member 331 drives the adjustment rod 332 to rotate; when the abutting portion 3312 moves and abuts against the first fixed member 3331, or when the operating portion 3311 abuts against the edge of the second sleeve 311b, the adjustment member 331 and the adjustment rod 332 stop moving along the adjustment axis 330a and can only move around the adjustment axis 330a at a fixed position. At this time, the first driven member 3332 moves on the adjustment rod 332 along the thread and the adjustment axis 330a toward the adjustment member 331 so that the first driven member 3332 slowly approaches the first fixed member 3331, and the first driven member 3332 and the first fixed member 3331 clamp the second sleeve 311b and the pivot 321, thereby achieving the damping effect between the main panel 310 and the first auxiliary panel 320.
The pivot 321 is formed with a first cavity 3211 and a second cavity 3212, where the first damper piece 333 and the second damper piece 334 are disposed in the first cavity 3211 and the second cavity 3212, respectively, and the first cavity 3211 and the second cavity 3212 may be interconnected or divided. The first cavity 3211 is provided with a connecting portion 3211a, the connecting portion 3211a is formed with a special-shaped groove, the first fixed member 3331 is connected to the connecting portion 3211a through a groove in a corresponding shape, and the groove of the first fixed member 3331 is fixedly connected to the groove of the connecting portion 3211a by a fastener. The fixed connection here is described relative to the first driven member 3332 rather than a connection and assembly relationship in which members are never detachable or are integrally formed. In fact, the first fixed member 3331 is a detachable member which is a fixed structure connected via another member. In other examples, the first fixed member 3331 and the connecting portion 3211a may be connected in other manners, which is not limited herein.
The second damper piece 334 is at least partially disposed in the second cavity 3212 and configured to provide a second resistance for the rotation of the first auxiliary panel 320 relative to the main panel 310 in normal use, where the resistance can hinder, to a certain degree, the smooth and rapid rotation between the first auxiliary panel 320 and the main panel 310, but does not completely lock the first auxiliary panel 320 and the main panel 310. It is to be understood that the second resistance is always less than the preset value. The second damper piece 334 can provide the resistance for the rotation of the first auxiliary panel during daily use and ensure that the first auxiliary panel stops at a position. In conjunction with the first damper piece 333, the second damper piece 334 can increase the service life and increase and adjust the stability of the first auxiliary panel 320 at this position in a special scenario, where the special scenario refers to situations such as external vibration or the whole machine in motion. In this example, the second resistance is constant and cannot be easily adjusted. A resistance value of the second damper piece 334 can be adjusted separately after the entire device is disassembled, but an adjustment device is not provided after the lighting device 300 is assembled.
The second damper piece 334 includes a second fixed member 3341 and a second driven member 3342. The second fixed member 3341 and the second driven member 3342 can move relative to each other, and an elastic piece 3343 provides the second resistance for the relative movement. The second fixed member 3341 and the second driven member 3342 are connected to the sleeve 311 and the pivot 321, respectively, thereby converting the second resistance into a resistance between the sleeve 311 and the pivot 321 and then into the resistance between the first auxiliary panel 320 and the main panel 310. Specifically, the second fixed member 3341 is connected to the first sleeve 311a, and the second driven member 3342 is connected to the pivot 321. In this example, the second fixed member 3341 is provided with a connecting hole, and the first sleeve 311 is also provided with a connecting hole at a corresponding position. A fastener passes through the connecting holes of the second fixed member 3341 and the first sleeve 311 and connects the second fixed member 3341 to the first sleeve 311. In other examples, the second fixed member 3341 may be detachably connected to the first sleeve 311, which is not limited herein. To enhance the stability of the connection, an intermediate member 335 is further provided between the second driven member 3342 and the pivot 321. In this example, the second driven member 3342 is provided with a connecting hole, and the intermediate member 335 is also provided with a connecting hole at a corresponding position. A fastener passes through the connecting holes of the second driven member 3342 and the intermediate member 335 and connects the second driven member 3342 to the intermediate member 335. In other examples, the second driven member 3342 may be detachably connected to the intermediate member 335, which is not limited herein. Further, a through hole 3344 is formed in a middle of the second driven member 3342. The second damper piece 334 further includes a sleeve 3346, and the second fixed member 3341 and the second driven member 3342 are sleeved on the sleeve 3346 and rotate relative to the sleeve 3346. The sleeve 3346 is further provided with multiple fixing rings, and one of the multiple fixing rings is disposed between the second fixed member 3341 and the second driven member 3342 so that an interval exists between the second fixed member 3341 and the second driven member 3342. One of the multiple fixing rings is disposed at one end of the sleeve 3346, and the elastic piece 3343 is disposed between a resistance piece and the fixing ring.
The intermediate member 335 and the pivot 321 are connected and, in particular, detachably connected. The pivot 321 is provided with multiple connecting ribs 3212, and the connecting ribs 3212 are protrusions formed on an inner wall of the pivot 321. Correspondingly, multiple connecting grooves 3351 corresponding to the connecting ribs 3212 in shape are provided on the intermediate member 335. When the intermediate member 355 is connected to the pivot 321, the connecting grooves 3351 are sleeved on the connecting ribs 3212. At least two or three connecting ribs 3212 are provided. In this example, five connecting ribs 3212 are provided and evenly distributed on the inner wall of the pivot 321. Further, a through hole 3352 is formed in a middle of the intermediate member 335, the through hole 3352 corresponds to the through hole 3344 in position, and a channel formed by the through holes 3352 and 3344 is used for a cable 338 in the lighting device 300 to pass through. In this example, since the cable extends from a middle of the pivot 321 to a peripheral side of the first auxiliary panel 320, the through hole 3352 further has an upward opening, making the through hole 3352 closer to a groove in shape. Specifically, the second driven member 3342 may further be provided with notches 3345, where the notches 3345 have the same shape as the connecting ribs 3212 and are connected to the connecting ribs 3212 so that the second driven member 3342 and the pivot 321 are connected more stably.
In this example, a biasing member 336 is further provided between the intermediate member 335 and the pivot 321 and configured to assist in the assembly of the second damper piece 334 and the intermediate member 335. Specifically, one end of the biasing member 336 abuts against the intermediate member 335, and the other end of the biasing member 336 abuts against the inner wall of the pivot 321. The biasing member 336 provides the second damper piece 334 a force that makes the second damper piece 334 move toward the first sleeve 311a so that it is ensured that when the second damper piece 334 is installed in the pivot 321, the second fixed member 3341 is close to the first sleeve 311a and is convenient for connection. In this example, a partition is provided between the first cavity 3211 and the second cavity 3212, and one end of the biasing member 336 abuts against the partition.
A first end of the first sleeve 311a is connected to the second damper piece 334, and a second end of the first sleeve 311a is provided with an end cover 337 for closing the first sleeve 311a. The end cover 337 is formed with an accommodation cavity 3371, and the accommodation cavity 3371 at least partially extends into a hollow part of the first sleeve 311a. The accommodation cavity 3371 is provided with a terminal 3372. The cable 338 is segmented. One section of the cable 338 extends in the pivot 321 and is connected to a first end of the terminal 3372. Another section of the cable 338 is connected to a second end of the terminal 3372, enters the first sleeve 311a from the accommodation cavity 3371, and finally is connected to the circuit board in the base through the main panel 310.
The main panel 310 is further connected to or formed with a second handle 340 which may particularly be used for transporting the lighting device 300 in a folded state. The second handle 340 may rotate relative to the main panel 310. The second handle 340 includes two connecting arms 341 and a grip connected to the connecting arms 341. The connecting arm 341 is in a shape of a sleeve. A first connecting arm of the two connecting arms 341 is provided between the adjustment member 331 and the second sleeve 311b. Moreover, the adjustment member 331 can also lock the rotation of the second handle 340. A second connecting arm of the two connecting arms 341 is provided between the end cover 337 and the first sleeve 311a.
