1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to push-cord energy saving lamp holders that are easy for the stripping of cord, more particularly, to one that has a cord-stripped socket next to the push-cord hole of the lamp holder body, where a slender stripping tool can be inserted to easily actuate the stripping of the power cord.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Energy saving lamps gradually become the main stream of illumination because of their saving energy, which considerably facilitates the popularity of the energy saving lamp holders among lighting appliances. Whatever the structure it could be, the energy saving lamp holder has to connect to the power supply for the illumination of the lamp. In general, the joining between the energy saving lamp holder and the power cord is categorized into two ways, threaded type and push-cord type, where the threaded type is more complicated in the manipulation that results in unpopularity; the joining operation of the push-cord type is done by inserting the conducting end portion of the power cord directly into the push-cord hole of the lamp holder for the purpose of a clamping. Due to the easy handling of the joining, the push-cord type for sure gains popularity. However, it is hard to strip the power cord once the joining is firm. A strip of the cord by force will generally bring in electric shock or destroy of the joining with the lamp holder, which is actually the worst drawback.
In face of the foregoing drawback, the inventor conceived the plot for a push-cord energy saving lamp holder easy for the stripping of cord, to overcome the drawback of hard to strip the cord of the prior art.
The objective of the present invention is to provide a push-cord energy saving lamp holder that operates the stripping of the power cord easily to be convenient for maintenance.
To accomplish the aforesaid objective, the push-cord energy saving lamp holder easy for stripping of cord of the present invention, comprises: a lamp holder body, having a set of symmetrically positioned push-cord holes and nearby a set of cord-stripped sockets at its top, a hollow at its bottom, where the push-cord holes and the cord-stripped sockets all extend to the internal of the lamp holder body, and the lamp holder body is provided with a set of symmetrically positioned first lodging troughs and second lodging troughs at its internal, which are formed by the gaps among the uneven erect pillars; a set of push-cord stands, each having a plug face from which a power connect face and a conducting face are formed by bending its top and bottom portions, where the edge of the power connect face is divided into a power connect notch at the inner side and a cord-stripped trench at the outer side, while the conducting face is a flat piece. During the assembly, the plug face is lodged in the first lodging trough for a fixing, where the power connect notch of the power connect face is positioned right inside the push-cord hole, and the cord-stripped trench is positioned right inside the cord-stripped socket. The conducting end portion, made from the peeling of the skin of the end portion of a power cord, is inserted in the push-cord hole to touch the power connect notch. By pressing the power connect notch, the conducting end portion will be clamped in the gap between the power connect notch and the lamp holder body, and the electric power is thus conducted to the push-cord stand; a set of conducting springy slices, having a plug face and a conducting face, where the plug face is lodged in the second lodging trough for a fixing during the assembly, and the back end of the conducting face will connect to the conducting face of the push-cord stand for the conduction of power; and a cover plate, having a set of symmetrically located positioning grooves on the plate which comprises a major opening and a connected thin arced groove. During the assembly, the cover plate is placed on the hollow of the lamp holder body, which makes the conducting springy slice to correspond to the positioning groove and reside next to the positioning groove, where the major openings of the positioning grooves accommodate the insertion of the two conducting terminals of an energy saving lamp, followed by a twist of the terminals along the thin arced grooves and a contact with the conducting springy slice for a fixing, and eventually the conduction of power illuminates the energy saving lamp; the cord-stripped socket is designed for accommodating the insertion of a slender cord-stripped tool, where the tool is pushed to bend the cord-stripped trench, which in turn bends the power connect notch, and the effect causes the conducting end portion of the power cord is released from the clamping, where the conducting end portion is thus easily stripped from the push-cord hole.
To achieve the foregoing objects of the present invention, the techniques adopted and the achievable function are detailed described with reference to the following preferred exemplified embodiment and the accompanying drawings, which is expected to help the honorable Examiner in comprehending the contents of the present invention thoroughly.
Referring to -shaped, where its two sides have two outward bottom pieces 121 for fixing in the positioning grooves 116. A joining article 13 penetrates the through hole 141 of a cover plate 14 from the bottom, through the threaded hole 112 of the lamp holder body 11, and upwardly to the joining hole 122 of the bottom piece 121 for a fixing, which is for fastening the sustaining frame 12 to the top of the lamp holder body 11, and for fastening the cover plate 14 to the hollow 115 of the lamp holder body 11; the lamp holder body 11 is provided with not only the threaded holes 112 at its internal, but a set of symmetrically positioned first lodging troughs 117 and a set of symmetrically positioned second lodging troughs 118, which are formed by the gaps among the uneven erect pillars;
The first lodging troughs 117 accommodate a set of push-cord stands 21, while the second lodging troughs 118 accommodate a set of conducting springy slices 22. Referring to
The conducting springy slices 22 are a flat piece with a couples of bends, comprising a plug face 221 and a conducting face 222 made by a bend with an incline at its back end, the plug face 221 each is further provided with a catch area 2212 which is formed by two shaped protrusions 2211. During the assembly, the plug face 221 is lodged in the second lodging trough 118 for a fixing, and the back end of the conducting face 222 will connect to the conducting face 213 of the push-cord stand 21 (shown in
Referring to
During the use, the positioning grooves 142 on the cover plate 14 are for accommodating energy saving lamp. Referring to
The power cord 30 is inserted through the push-cord hole 113, shown in
As for the stripping of the conducting end portion 31 of the power cord 30 from the contact with the power connect notch 2121, shown in
To sum up, the disclosed push-cord energy saving lamp holder easy for stripping of cord of the present invention was not known to the public, and is absolutely novel; it surely can accomplish the expected inventive objective and function of usage, which is construed as creativeness and usefulness that is compliant to the requirements of a utility patent, and an application is then filed according to the patent law, which deserves your favorable examination and approval.
