Referring to
As shown in
Therefore, in this application, the light which is emitted from the light emitting plate 11 and passes through the light transmitting plate 13 comes out. A magnitude of the distance between the light transmitting plate 13 and the light emitting plate 11 is related to a light exiting angle of the light which is emitted from the light emitting plate 11 and then passes through the light transmitting plate 13 coming out. When the distance between the light transmitting plate 13 and the light emitting plate 11 changes, the light exiting angle of the light which is emitted by the light emitting plate 11 and then passes through the light transmitting plate 13 coming out is changed accordingly. Therefore, by rotating the light transmitting plate 13 to adjust the distance between the light transmitting plate 13 and the light emitting plate 11, the light exiting angle of the light which is emitted from the light emitting plate 11 and passes through the light transmitting plate 13 coming out can be adjusted, which can simplify the structure, reduce the parts, reduce the costs, and facilitate the operations of the user.
In some embodiments, the light emitting plate 11 may emit light. For example, the light emitting plate 11 is mounted with at least one light strip on one side of the light emitting plate 11 towards the light transmitting plate 13; the light strip may be, but is not limited to, an LED light strip; the light strip is a plurality of light strip circles spreading from a center of the light transmitting plate 11 towards an edge of the light transmitting plate 11. In another embodiment, the light strip may be arranged in a zigzag pattern, etc. The light strip may emit light. In other embodiments, the light emitting plate 11 may include a plurality of light beads on a side of the light emitting plate 11 towards the light transmitting plate 13. The light beads may emit light and are not limited herein.
Therefore, the light emitting plate 11 is capable of emitting light and the emitted light comes out after passing through the light transmitting plate 13.
In some embodiments, referring again to
Therefore, the lighting fixture 1 of the present disclosure, as a result of using the light transmitting plate 13 with a plurality of light transmission circles 131 having the above-described parameters, such that its UGR (Unified Glare Rating) values are all less than 28, glare may be reduced.
For some embodiments, please referring to
Therefore, through the cooperation of the plug element 14 with the spiral groove 122 on the rotating shaft 12, the rotating movement of the light transmitting plate 13 relative to the rotating shaft 12 can be more stable and reliable, with better stroke stability.
In some embodiments, referring again to
In some embodiments, referring again to
Therefore, in sliding in the spiral groove 122 following the rotating movement of the light transmitting plate 13, the plug element 14 may be engaged with different limiting points 1221 within the spiral groove 122 to define the light emitting plate 11 relative to the light transmitting plate 13 at different light exiting angles.
In some embodiments, the limiting point 1221 is a recess, and the plug element 14 is an elastic pin.
Therefore, when the plug element 14 slides within the spiral groove 122 but does not slide to a position at the current limiting point 1221, the plug element 14 is in an elastic compression state. When the plug element 14 slides within the spiral groove 122 to a position at the current limiting point 1221, the plug element 14 extends under its elastic restoring force into the current limiting point 1221 and engages with the current limiting point 1221. When it is necessary to adjust the light exiting angle of the light emitting plate 11 relative to the light transmitting plate 13, the light transmitting plate 13 is rotated, the light transmitting plate 13 drives the plug element 14 to move, causing the plug element 14 to be compressed and retracted to overcome the resistance generated by the current limiting point 1221, and forcing the plug element 14 to detach from the current limiting point 1221 and to continue moving to a next limiting point 1221 and engage with the next limiting point 1221.
In some embodiments, an inner wall surface of the recess of the limiting point 1221 is a wedge-shaped surface. Therefore, an end of the second end 142 of the plug element 14 is also wedge-shaped.
Therefore, since the inner wall surface of the recess of the limiting point 1221 is a wedge-shaped surface and the end of the second end 142 of the plug element 14 is also wedge-shaped, the plug element 14 is able to be inserted into the limiting point 1221 or out of the limiting point 1221 much more easily by the fit of the wedge-shaped surface and the wedge-shaped end.
In some embodiments, referring again to
Therefore, when the light transmitting plate 13 with the plug elements 14 mounted thereon is sleeved with the rotating shaft 12, the second end 142 of the plug element 14 can slide through the insertion portion 1224 into the spiral portion 1222; after the second end 142 of the plug element 14 has been inserted into the insertion portion 1224, the light transmitting plate 13 is driven to rotate, the light transmitting plate 13 drives the plug element 14 to run through the transition portion 1224, and slides into the spiral portion 1222, simplifying an operation of sleeve the light transmitting plate 13 with the plug element 14 to the rotating shaft 12.
In some embodiments, the insertion portion 1224 has an opening dimension on the end face 1220 of the rotating shaft 12 that is larger than an outer diameter of the second end 142 of the plug element 14.
Therefore, since the opening dimension of the insertion portion 1224 on the end face 1220 of the rotating shaft 12 is larger than the outer diameter of the second end 142 of the plug element 14, the second end 142 of the plug element 14 can be inserted into the insertion portion 1224 more easily, further simplifying the process of insertion operation of inserting the light transmitting plate 13 with the plug elements 14 mounted on the rotating shaft 12.
In some embodiments, referring again to
Therefore, when the plug element 14 slides within the spiral portion 1222, the stop portion 1226 provides a limit to the sliding of the plug element 14 within the spiral portion 1222, avoiding that during normal adjustment of the light exiting angle of the light transmitting plate 13 relative to the light emitting plate 11, the plug element 14 slips out of the spiral portion 1222, which causes the light transmitting plate 13 to separate from the light emitting plate 11, thereby causing operational inconvenience to the user.
In some embodiments, the spiral portion 1222 includes a second sidewall surface 1228 on a side away from the end face 1220, and in some embodiments, the distance between the first sidewall surface 1227 and the second sidewall surface 1228 of the spiral portion 1222 is approximately equal to a maximum outer diameter of the plug element 14.
Therefore, the spiral portion 1222 may provide a stable and reliable guiding action for the plug element 14.
In some embodiments, the second end 142 of the plug element 14 includes a convex ring 143. The convex ring 143 is configured to cooperate with the first sidewall surface 1227 and the second sidewall surface 1228 of the spiral portion 1222, respectively. In this way, the plug element 14 other than the convex ring 143 can have a smaller outer diameter size relative to the convex ring 143, which can save the cost of material used for the plug element 14 and reduce the overall weight of the lighting fixture 1.
In some embodiments, the insertion section 1224 includes a third sidewall surface 1229 at a side away from the end face 1220. The second sidewall surface 1228 and the third sidewall surface 1229 are substantially flush. A fourth sidewall surface 1230 of the transition section 1223 on the side away from the end face 1220 is recessed relative to the second sidewall surface 1228 and the third sidewall surface 1229 toward the side away from the end face 1220. As a result, the transition portion 1223 is substantially in a shape of a curved moon. The fourth sidewall surface 1230 is located face to face with the stop portion 1226.
Therefore, the transition portion 1223 itself has an effect of limiting the plug element 14.
In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 12 includes a plurality of first mounting portions 124 located on a side of the light emitting plate 11 close to the light emitting plate 11. The rotating shaft 12 is mounted to the surface of the light exiting side 111 of the light emitting plate 11 through the plurality of first mounting portions 124. In some specific embodiments, the plurality of the first mounting portions 124 are a plurality of lugs spaced apart and projecting outwardly from a side of a circumferential wall 121 of the rotating shaft 12 proximate the light emitting plate 11. In other embodiments, the first mounting portions 124 may be connected to form a mounting ring. In other embodiments, the first mounting portions 124 may also be mounting holes defined on an end face of the rotating shaft 12 close to the light emitting plate 11. No limitation is made herein.
It can be appreciated that in some other embodiments, the transition portion 1223 and the insertion portion 1224 may be omitted.
In some embodiments, referring to
Therefore, the first ends 141 of the plurality of plug elements 14 can be reliably mounted within the plurality of mounting holes 133, they are not easily dropped, simplifying mount and facilitating operation of the light transmitting plate 13.
In some embodiments, the mounting hole 133 includes a hole portion 1331 and an opening portion. The hole portion 1331 is cylindrical in shape. An extension of a center axis of the hole portion 1331 intersects or is perpendicular to the center axis of the second mounting portion 132. The opening portion 1332 is disposed on a circumferential sidewall of the hole portion 1331 and is interconnected with the hole portion 1331. The hole portion 1331 has a diameter dimension equal to a diameter dimension of the first end 141 of the plug element 14 so that the first end 141 of the plug element 14 can be mounted within the hole portion 1331. The opening portion 1332 is located on the circumferential sidewall of the hole portion 1331 to facilitate molding as well as demolding of the mounting hole 133.
In some embodiments, referring again to
When mounting or rotating the light transmitting plate 13, the light transmitting plate 13 can be operated by holding the gripping portion 135. Compared to operation of the light transmitting plate 13 by holding an edge of the light transmitting plate 13, operation of the light transmitting plate 13 can be simplified by holding the gripping portion 135.
In some embodiments, referring again to
In some embodiments, the light transmitting plate 13 includes a limiting portion 136 at an edge of a side of the light transmitting plate 13 away from the light emitting plate 11. In this embodiment, the limiting portion 136 is an indicator arrow for indicating a direction of rotation of the light transmitting plate 13. The limiting portion 136 cooperates with the limiting member 16, e.g., the limiting member 16 can be snapped in a middle position of the limiting portion 136, and can limit the rotating movement of the light transmitting plate 13 relative to the light emitting plate 11.
In some embodiments, referring to
Therefore, with the first marking portion 137 and the second marking portion 185, it becomes easier for the light transmitting plate 13 to be able to be sleeved on the rotating shaft 12.
In some embodiments, referring again to
Therefore, the outer shell 186 is a hollow annular ring, the mounting plate 182 has an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the outer shell 186, the circumferential sidewall 181 is located within the annular ring of the outer shell 186, the circumferential sidewall 181 is spaced apart from the outer shell 186 to form a circular channel 189, and each of the heat dissipating fins 188 is connected between the inner wall of the outer shell 186 and the circumferential sidewall 181 and extends to the mounting plate 11 on a side away from the light emitting plate 11. The plurality of heat dissipating fins 188 are spaced apart in a circumferential direction of the mounting plate 182 with a center of the heat sink 18 being a center.
Therefore, the heat generated by the light emitting plate 11 is conducted by the heat dissipating fins 188 to a portion of the heat dissipating fins 188 located within the circular channel 189, which has a vertically sloping upward space equivalent to a chimney, thus enabling the use of the chimney effect to cause air underneath the light fixture 1 to pass through the circular channel 189, and flow out from above the circular channel 189; the heat generated by the light emitting plate 11 absorbed by the heat dissipating fins 188 is conducted by the heat dissipating fins 188 to the portion of the heat dissipating fins 188 located within the circular channel 189 and then carried away by the flow of air within the circular channel 189. Because the circular channel 189 is capable of forming the chimney effect, will enhance the rate of air convection within the circular channel 189 and accelerate the rate of heat dissipation.
In some embodiments, the heat sink 18 defines a through hole 187 in a center of the heat sink 18. The lighting fixture 1 further includes a power supply 19. The power supply 19 is mounted on a side of the mounting plate 182 back from the light emitting plate 11 and spaced from the plurality of heat dissipating fins 188.
Thereby, the flow of air from one side of the heat sink 18 to the other side of the heat sink 18 via the through hole 187 can be realized, and since the power supply 19 is mounted on the side of the mounting plate 182 back from the light emitting plate 11 and spaced apart from the plurality of heat dissipating fins 188, the air flow space between the power supply 19 and the heat sink 18 can be increased, thereby reducing wind resistance and thus increasing the flow of air from one side of the heat sink 18 to the other side of the heat sink 18 via the through hole 187, thereby reducing wind resistance and thereby increasing the amount of circulation flowing from one side of the heat sink 18 to the other side of the heat sink 18 via the through hole 187.
In some embodiments, the heat dissipating fins 1888 are designed with bofun type heat dissipating teeth, which can further reduce wind resistance, increase air flow, and dissipate heat better.
In some embodiments, the heat dissipating fins 188 are copper structures connected to the mounting plate 182 of the heat sink 18 by soldering. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the heat dissipating fins 188 are formed by aluminum extrusion in one-piece die casting together with other structural members of the heat sink 18.
In some embodiments, the heat dissipating fins 188 and the outer shell 186 are connected by means of a snap fit.
In some embodiments, the light transmitting plate 13 includes a connection port 139. The connection port 139 penetrates through the second mounting portion 132 and the gripping portion 135. The lighting fixture 1 further includes a communication module 17. The communication module 17 is mounted on the connection port 139. The communication module 17 may be different types of wireless communication circuits, such as one or a combination of WIFI, infrared transceiver module, ZigBee (Purple Bee Protocol), Bluetooth.
