The present disclosure relates to the technical field of lamps, and in particular to a recessed ceiling lamp and an inductor plug thereof.
With the development of light-emitting diode (LED) technologies, conventional LED lighting has been gradually transitioned to intelligent control, and incorporated into an Internet of things (IoT) system. However, in the development toward intelligent control, a lighting lamp will be more expensive with an inductor. Regarding whether the inductor is mounted on the lighting lamp, there have been two demands in markets, and at least two different production lines need to be provided by the manufacturers. In addition, for commercially available lamps such as office or home troffer lamps (recessed ceiling lamps) at present, the inductor is mounted cumbersomely.
The Chinese utility model patent No. CN213840852 U provides an inductor hidden lighting lamp, including a lamp body and an end cap component on an end of the lamp body. An accommodating cavity and an inductor are provided in the end cap component. The inductor is electrically connected to the lamp body. A telescopic elastic component is provided in the accommodating cavity. One end of the elastic component is fixedly connected to a probe of the inductor. In response to a compressed state of the elastic component, the probe of the inductor is pulled back to the accommodating cavity and is hidden. When an elastic force of the elastic component is released, the probe of the inductor can be pushed out of the accommodating cavity and exposed out of the end cap component. According to the inductor hidden lighting lamp, through an inductor hiding structure, the inductor can be either hidden or exposed out for work, so that when the lamp is not used, dust is not accumulated on the probe of the inductor to affect the induction sensitivity. Nevertheless, the structural design is complex. The inductor is provided no matter whether it is used or not, thus raising the cost.
In view of defects of the prior art, an objective of the present disclosure is to provide a recessed ceiling lamp and an inductor plug thereof.

Other features, objectives, and advantages of the present disclosure will become more apparent by reading the detailed description of non-limiting embodiments with reference to the following drawings.
The present disclosure is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. The following embodiments will help those skilled in the art further understand the present disclosure, but will not limit the present disclosure in any way. It should be noted that several variations and improvements can also be made by a person of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the conception of the present disclosure. These all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an inductor plug for a recessed ceiling lamp. As shown in
Accommodating opening 21 is formed in a top of the intermediate plate 2. The accommodating opening 21 is configured to mount inductor 100. A shape of the accommodating opening 21 is matched with a shape of a mounting seat of the inductor, and may be provided as a racetrack for example. Preferably, clamping boss 22 is formed by extending outward for a certain distance from an edge of the accommodating opening 21 and excavating a material. The mounting seat of the inductor 100 is located on the clamping boss 22. This makes the inductor 100 mounted more stably. Further, the inductor 100 is provided on the accommodating opening 21 in a clamping manner. The mounting seat of the inductor can be clamped onto the accommodating opening 21 through symmetrical fasteners. Notch 211 is formed in a side of the accommodating opening 21. The notch 211 is configured to form avoidance for one of the fasteners to facilitate detachment.
The left end plate 1 is firmly connected to a frame profile of the recessed ceiling lamp. Fastening threaded holes 11 are formed in the left end plate 1. There are two sets of the fastening threaded holes 11 that are arranged side by side. The two sets of the fastening threaded holes 11 in a transverse direction can improve firmness in connection. Preferably, each set of the fastening threaded holes 11 includes two fastening threaded holes arranged up and down. The up-and-down arrangement can facilitate adjustment on a relative height of the inductor plug connected to the frame profile, and can be adapted to diffusing covers with different sizes. Further, studs 4 are provided on an inner side surface of the left end plate 1. The studs 4 are respectively located on end surfaces of the fastening threaded holes 11. Through holes or counterbores are respectively formed in the studs 4. The through holes or the counterbores are respectively coaxial with the fastening threaded holes 11. When the left end plate 1 is firmly connected to the frame profile through bolts, ends of the bolts enter the through holes or the counterbores of the studs 4 after the bolts pass through the fastening threaded holes 11. This effectively prevents the extended ends of the bolts from affecting the inductor to be mounted or a power cord.
The right end plate 3 is docked with a diffusing cover, namely one end of the arc-shaped diffusing cover is docked on an outer surface of the right end plate 3. Preferably, first clamping strip 31 and second clamping strip 32 are provided on an outer side surface of the right end plate 3. The first clamping strip 31 and the second clamping strip 32 each are arc-shaped. The arc-shaped first clamping strip 31 and the arc-shaped second clamping strip 32 are arranged up and down along a plate surface of the right end plate 3 to form a first clamping groove 301. An upper portion of the end of the diffusing cover is clamped into the first clamping groove 301. This makes the diffusing cover and the inductor plug more stable relatively. Further, two ends of the first clamping strip 31 respectively extend downward to sides of the right end plate 3 to form a concave shape. Limiting members 33 are respectively provided at two sides of the right end plate 3. The limiting members 33 each are seat-shaped. The two limiting members 33 are respectively formed into second clamping grooves 302 with the two ends of the first clamping strip 31. The end of the diffusing cover is docked with the right end plate 3, with the upper portion clamped into the first clamping groove 301, and two sides respectively clamped into the second clamping grooves 302. This further makes the connection more stable.
The inductor is mounted through the inductor plug, such that whether the inductor is mounted can be determined according to requirements of users, and differences between production processes caused by different mounting requirements on the inductor can be eliminated. The present disclosure not only makes the lamp more practical, but also can reduce a production cost in mass production.
Embodiment 2 is realized on the basis of Embodiment 1. By providing a cap matched with the inductor plug, the lamp is more aesthetically-pleasing when the inductor is provided unnecessarily. Meanwhile, by optimizing a structure of the cap, a power cord in the inductor plug is put in order. Specifically:

Further, bracket 51 is arranged on an inner surface of the cap 5. The bracket 51 is preferably a plate body with a middle U-shaped groove. Spherical protrusion 511 is provided at one side of the plate body. Two brackets 51 are spaced apart and arranged side by side, while two spherical protrusions 511 are opposite to each other without contact. The power cord located in the inductor plug and connected to the inductor passes through a space between the two brackets 51 and is supported on the two spherical protrusions. Preferably, there are multiple sets of the brackets 51. In each set, there are two brackets that are arranged side by side. The multiple sets of the brackets 51 are formed into a channel where the power cord gets in and out and is supported by the spherical protrusions 511.
According to Embodiment 3, on the basis of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, a recessed ceiling lamp is provided. As shown in
The support plate 6 includes left support plate 61 and right support plate 62. Two reflecting plates 8 are clamped the left support plate 61 and the right support plate 62 to form a concave groove-shaped structural body. The diffusing cover 7 is provided on a middle of the groove-shaped structural body. The LED lamp is shielded in the diffusing cover 7. The LED lamp may be a strip structure. The left end plate 1 is firmly connected to the left support plate 61 through a bolt. A left end of the diffusing cover 7 is docked with the right end plate 3 and sleeved to the first clamping groove 301 and the second clamping grooves 302, and a right end of the diffusing cover 7 is connected to the right support plate 62. The driving case 9 is provided on the reflecting plates 8. The driving case 9 is configured to store a drive component.
When the inductor is mounted, the inductor is provided on the inductor plug through the accommodating opening 21. When the inductor is mounted unnecessarily, the cap 5 is clamped onto the accommodating opening 21.
