This application is based on and claims the benefit of priority from Chinese Patent Application No. 2022226044167, filed on 29 Sep. 2022, the entirety of which is incorporated by reference herein.
The disclosure relates to the technical field of lamp strings, in particular to a water-proof decorative lamp and a lamp string.
A lamp string is generally composed of a plurality of decorative lamps in parallel or in series. At some occasions of festivals and events, such as at Christmas, Christmas trees are usually adopted and embellished in order to foil a festival atmosphere. Lamp strings are hung on the Christmas trees to enhance the ornamental value. As Christmas lamp strings are mostly used in outdoor environments, the Christmas lamp strings are required to have good water-proof performance. However, structural designs of the majority of lamp strings are unreasonable at present, and the lamp strings have poor water-proof performance.
The disclosure aims at solving at least one of the technical problems in the existing technology. For this purpose, the disclosure provides a water-proof decorative lamp, which has a good water-proof effect and brings better usage experiences for users.
The disclosure further discloses a lamp string provided with the foregoing water-proof decorative lamps.
The water-proof decorative lamp according to an embodiment of a first aspect of the disclosure includes a light source body, connecting wires and a water-proof component. The water-proof component includes a light-emitting chip and a packaging body. The light-emitting chip is arranged in the packaging body and is provided with two pins extending out of the packaging body. The connecting wires each includes a conductive wire and an insulating layer. A side wall of the conductive wire is covered with the insulating layer. The conductive wire located at one end of the connecting wire protrudes out of the insulating layer to form a connector. The two pins are respectively connected with the connectors. The water-proof component includes an isolating column and a sleeve. The isolating column is disposed between the two pins so as to separate the two pins from each other and the two connectors from each other. One end of the sleeve is arranged around the insulating layer near the connector, and the other end of the sleeve is arranged around the packaging body near the pin to cover the connector and the pin. The isolating column is made of a hot melting material, and the sleeve is made of a heat-shrinkable material.
The water-proof decorative lamp according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the disclosure at least has the following beneficial effects. The isolating column is arranged between the two pins to prevent short circuit of the pins and the connectors. One end of the sleeve is arranged around the insulating layer near the connector, and the other end of the sleeve is arranged around the packaging body near the pin. When being heated, the isolating column is melted to wrap the pin and the connector. At the same time, the sleeve is tightened to tightly wrap the pins, the connectors and the isolating column between the packaging body and the insulating layer. In this way, the external rainwater is difficult to penetrate into contact with the pins and the connectors, so that the water-proof effect is good, and the structure is simple, which can lower the production cost.
According to some embodiments of the disclosure, the water-proof decorative lamp further includes a conductive terminal, a first clip is arranged at one end of the conductive terminal, a second clip is arranged at the other end of the conductive terminal, the first clip is roll-pressed on the pin, and the second clip is roll-pressed on the connector.
According to some embodiments of the disclosure, the conductive terminal is provided with a third clip, and the third clip is configured for roll-pressing on the insulating layer near the connector.
According to some embodiments of the disclosure, the water-proof decorative lamp further includes a resistor, the resistor is arranged between the pin and the connector, one end of the resistor is connected to the pin, and the other end of the resistor is connected to the connector.
According to some embodiments of the disclosure, at least one resistor is provided.
According to some embodiments of the disclosure, the water-proof decorative lamp further includes a lamp holder and a light transmitting cover, the lamp holder is provided with an installing channel with an opening, the light source body is arranged in the installing channel, a notch for passing the connecting wire is arranged on a bottom wall of the installing channel, the light transmitting cover is snap-fitted with the lamp holder, and the light transmitting cover is configured for covering the installing channel.
According to some embodiments of the disclosure, an umbrella-shaped shielding part is arranged at one end of the cover near the lamp holder for covering a gap between the cover and the lamp holder.
According to some embodiments of the disclosure, the water-proof decorative lamp further includes a positioning block which is arranged at a bottom portion of the isolating column and is located between the connecting wires, positioning surfaces located in the installing channel are provided at both sides of the lamp holder, and two sides of the positioning block are abutted against the positioning surfaces respectively.
A lamp string according to an embodiment of a second aspect of the disclosure includes a plurality of the water-proof decorative lamps according to the first aspect above and a cable, wherein the cable is electrically connected with the connecting wires and is provided with a power interface, and the power interface is configured for connecting to a driving power.
The lamp string according to the embodiment of the second aspect of the disclosure at least has the following beneficial effects. The water-proof decorative lamps can be connected via a cable in parallel or in series, so that the water-proof decorative lamps are disposed on a long object and are applicable to different occasions. Moreover, the cable itself has a good water-proof performance, so a good water-proof performance can be achieved after the cable is connected with the water-proof decorative lamps.
The additional aspects and advantages of the disclosure will be given in part in the following description, and will become apparent in part from the following description, or will be learned through the practice of the disclosure.
The additional aspects and advantages of the disclosure will be more apparent from the following description of the embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
