The reference numerals in the drawings of the specification of the present disclosure may be explained as follows:
In the case where the antenna structure is entirely located inside the mounting seat, the mounting seat is easy to shield the electromagnetic waves received and emitted by the antenna. Especially when the mounting seat is a metal mounting seat, the mounting seat can shield the signals received and sent by the antenna structure, which leads to the failure of data reading and writing on the surface of the antenna structure facing the mounting seat, and is not conducive to data reading and writing of the antenna structure. Therefore, it is needed to provide a power supply module to solve the above problems.
The present disclosure provides a power supply module and a lamp, which is described in detail below. It should be noted that the order of description in the following examples is not meant to limit the preferred order of the examples of the present disclosure. In the following examples, the description of the various examples have respective different emphases, and a part in some example, which is not described in detail, can be referred to the related description of other examples.
The power supply module includes a mounting seat 1, a circuit board 2 and an antenna structure 3. The mounting seat 1 includes a mounting bottom plate 11, the circuit board 2 is mounted on the mounting seat 1, the antenna structure 3 is disposed on the circuit board 2, the antenna structure 3 has a first surface facing away from the mounting bottom plate 11 and a second surface facing the mounting bottom plate 11, the first surface is exposed at the outer side of the mounting seat 1, and the mounting bottom plate 11 is provided with a through hole 111 opposite to the second surface.
Compared with the prior art, the antenna structure 3 in the present disclosure has a first surface (e.g., upper surface) facing away from the mounting bottom plate 11 and a second surface (e.g., lower surface) facing the mounting bottom plate 11. The first surface is exposed at the outer side of the mounting seat 1, the mounting bottom plate 11 is provided with a through hole 111 opposite to the second surface, and the through hole 111 can ensure that there is no obstruction below the antenna structure 3, so the wireless signals of the antenna structure 3 can be read and written normally through the upper and lower parts thereof, thus realizing the double-sided data reading and writing function of the antenna structure 3, and making the data reading and writing of the antenna structure 3 more convenient.
Specifically, in order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the power supply module and reduce the temperature of the power supply module, so as to improve the service life of the power supply module, the mounting seat 1 in the present disclosure is a metal mounting seat. Therefore, when the housing is made of a plastic material, even if the power supply module is mounted inside the housing, data reading and writing can be performed on the antenna structure 3 without disassembling the housing due to the double-sided data reading and writing function of the antenna structure 3 in the power supply module.
Moreover, the antenna structure 3 is integrated on the circuit board 2 through a circuit board printing process and forms an integrated structure with the circuit board 2, so that the mounting step of the antenna structure 3 is omitted in the manufacturing process, and the production efficiency of the power supply module is improved. In addition, the above arrangement can also reduce the size of the power supply module in the second direction Z (height direction, for example, the direction perpendicular to the mounting bottom plate 11 of the mounting seat 1), ensuring that the power supply module has a compact structure in the second direction Z and a small volume. The power supply module further includes a first direction X (length direction) and a third direction Y (width direction), which are perpendicular to each other and parallel to the mounting bottom plate 11 of the mounting seat 1.

Illustratively, the supporting portion 112 is configured as a supporting piece disposed on the mounting bottom plate 11, and the supporting piece is bent and extended toward the circuit board 2. In the specific manufacturing process, the mounting bottom plate 11 can be stamped by a stamping process to obtain the above-mentioned supporting piece, so that the manufacturing process of the supporting piece is relatively simple and convenient. That is, the supporting piece and the mounting bottom plate 11 have an integrated structure. Of course, the supporting portion 112 can also be separated from the mounting bottom plate 11, that is, the supporting portion 112 can be mounted on the mounting bottom plate 11 after the production is completed; and therefore, the supporting portion 112 can be replaced according to different spacing requirements between the circuit board 2 and the mounting bottom plate 11.
More specifically, the mounting seat 1 includes a first direction X (the first direction X of the mounting seat 1 is the same as the first direction of the power supply module), and the supporting portion 112 has a supporting surface (e.g., the upper surface of the supporting portion 112) close to the circuit board 2, the supporting surface is a stepped surface, and in the first direction X, a step on the stepped surface is configured to position a relative position between the circuit board 2 and the mounting bottom plate 11.
It can be understood that the mounting seat 1 includes a third direction Y perpendicular to the first direction X, and both the first direction X and the third direction Y are parallel to the mounting bottom plate 11. The mounting seat 1 has a substantially U-shaped structure, that is, the mounting seat 1 includes a mounting bottom plate 11 and two mounting side plates (e.g., a first mounting side plate 12 and a second mounting side plate 13) connected to the mounting bottom plate 11, and the two mounting side plates are connected to opposite sides of the mounting bottom plate 11 in the first direction and extend along the first direction. Therefore, the distance between the two mounting side plates (e.g., the first mounting side plate 12 and the second mounting side plate 13) on the mounting seat 1 is ensured to match the size of the circuit board 2 in the third direction Y, so that the positioning between the circuit board 2 and the mounting bottom plate 11 in the third direction Y can be realized.
In some examples of the present disclosure, the power supply module further includes a cover 4, and the cover 4 is mounted on the two mounting side plates of the mounting seat 1. Illustratively, the cover 4 is substantially U-shaped, and the opening of the cover 4 with a U-shaped structure faces the mounting seat 1, and the cover 4 is covered on the mounting seat 1 to form a mounting space, and the mounting space is configured for mounting components, such as the circuit board 2 and the antenna structure 3, etc.
The mounting seat 1 further includes a second direction Z (the second direction Z of the mounting seat 1 is the second direction Z of the power supply module), the second direction Z is perpendicular to the mounting bottom plate 11, at least one of the two mounting side plates is provided with a position limiting portion, and the position limiting portion is configured to define the relative position between the cover 4 and the mounting seat 1 in the second direction, thus ensuring the accuracy of the mounting position between the cover 4 and the mounting seat 1.
Illustratively, a first position limiting portion 121 is formed on the first mounting side plate 12, and a second position limiting portion is formed on the second mounting side plate 13, the outer circumferential surface of the first mounting side plate 12 is a stepped surface, the thickness of the top region thereof is less than the thickness of the bottom region thereof, and the first position limiting portion 121 is configured as a step on the stepped surface. It should be noted that the thickness of the side plate of the cover 4 is equal to the difference between the thickness of the bottom region of the first mounting side plate and the thickness of the top region of the first mounting side plate. Therefore, when the cover 4 is covered on the mounting seat 1, the outer circumferential surface of the cover 4 and the outer circumferential surface of the mounting side plate of the mounting seat 1 can be ensured to be in the same plane, and the structure obtained after mounting of the cover 4 and the mounting side plate of the mounting seat 1 is ensured to be relatively smooth and beautiful. Similarly, the second position limiting portion is also set in this way.
A cover connection portion 43 is provided on the side plate of the cover 4, an opposite connection portion 14 is provided on the mounting side plate of the mounting seat 1, and the cover connection portion 43 is connected to the opposite connection portion 14, so as to realize the fixation between the mounting seat 1 and the cover 4. The cover connection portion 43 and the opposite connection portion 14 are both threaded holes, and they are connected through a fastening screw. Alternatively, one of the cover connection portion 43 and the opposite connection portion 14 is a buckle, and the other of the cover connection portion 43 and the opposite connection portion 14 is a hook, and they are fixed through a snap connection.
In addition, a mounting portion 15 is further provided on the mounting seat 1, through which the power supply module can be mounted as a whole at a target position, for example, inside the housing of a lamp. The mounting portion 15 can be fixedly connected to the housing by means of snap connection, screw connection, bonding, etc.
In some examples of the present disclosure, the power supply module further includes a socket module 5 and a wireless module 6. The socket module 5 is electrically connected with the circuit board 2 and configured to be connected with a load, and the wireless module 6 is electrically connected with the circuit board 2 and configured to receive or send a data signal. For example, the wireless module 6 can realize the function after receiving the control signal, that is, the light source of the lamp is provided with a driving module, and the wireless module is matched with the driving module to adjust the brightness and color of the light source.
Continuing to refer to
In some examples of the application, the power supply module further includes an insulating structure 8, and the insulating structure 8 is disposed on an inner circumferential side of the mounting seat 1 and the cover 4, and configured to provide an insulated connection between the circuit board 2, the cover 4 and the mounting seat 1, so that the charged body (circuit board 2) are insulated from the cover 4 and the mounting seat, thus preventing the power supply module from electric shock failure during use and ensuring the safety of the power supply module.
It should be noted that the insulating structure 8 includes a first insulating member and a second insulating member, the first insulating member is disposed on the inner circumferential side of the cover 4, the second insulating member is disposed on the inner circumferential side of the mounting seat 1, and the circuit board 2 is surrounded by the first insulating member and the second insulating member. Illustratively, in order to ensure that the docking portion 7 mounted on the circuit board 2 can pass through the second cover 42, the first insulating member is provided with an opening 81 corresponding to the avoidance hole 421 on the second cover 42.
In some examples of the present disclosure, the power supply module further includes a connection piece 9, and the connection piece 9 is configured to detachably and fixedly mount the wireless module 6 on the cover 4 (i.e., the second cover 42). Illustratively, the connection piece 9 is a fastening screw, and the wireless module 6 and the second cover 42 are provided with threaded holes corresponding to the connection piece 9. By connecting the wireless module 6 and the second cover 42 with the fastening screw, the connection between them can be ensured to be more stable and reliable, and it is convenient to disassemble them. Alternatively, the connection piece 9 is a connection buckle and a connection hook, and one of the connection buckle and the connection hook is provided on the wireless module 6, and the other of the connection buckle and the connection hook is provided on the second cover 42.
