Abstract

A cabinet light includes a light emitting element, a light housing, conductive terminals, a cabinet body, and conductive rails. The light emitting element and the conductive terminals are fixed on the light housing. The conductive rails are fixed on the cabinet body. One end of the conductive terminal is electrically connected to the light emitting element. At least one positioning element is disposed on the cabinet body corresponding to the light housing. When the light housing is fixed on the cabinet body through the positioning element, the other end of the conductive terminal is elastically and electrically connected to the conductive rail. The cabinet body has advantages of simple wiring and use flexibility.

Claims (25)

1. A cabinet apparatus, comprising:

a cabinet body;

a conductive rail disposed inside the cabinet body, wherein the conductive rail is connected to a power supply;

an illumination device;

a conductive terminal connected to the illumination device and the conductive rail, the conductive terminal being adjustable to elastically engage the conductive rail for conducting electricity from the power supply to the illumination device; and

a positioning element for stabilizing the conductive terminal to one of the predetermined positions, wherein the positioning element comprises a sliding rail structure.

2. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the illumination device comprising an LED strip and a light guide plate for guiding light emitted from the LED strip to inner space of the cabinet body.

3. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the LED strip is placed in the inner portion of the cabinet body, and the light guide plate has more light refraction points near the LED strip.

4. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the conductive rail has a plurality of predetermined positions to be chosen by a user for engaging the conductive terminal to one of the predetermined positions to adjust an illumination effect of the illumination device in the cabinet body.

5. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the conductive terminal comprises an elastic electrode abutting on the conductive rail with an elastic force of the elastic electrode.

6. The cabinet apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the conductive terminal further comprises a fixing cover, and one end of the elastic electrode engages with the illumination device and the other end of the elastic electrode outstretches through the fixing cover to abut the conductive rail.

7. The cabinet apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the elastic electrode comprises a spring and a conductive cap, the conductive cap has a slot for receiving an end of the spring, the fixing cover has a reception hole, the conductive cap extending through the reception hole to abut the conductive rail.

8. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a second conductive rail and a second conductive terminal, the second conductive terminal connecting to the illumination device opposite to the conductive terminal, and the second conductive terminal further connecting to the second conductive rail.

9. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the conductive rail is disposed along a vertical direction relative to the cabinet body.

10. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a second illumination device to be connected to the conductive rail.

11. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a rechargeable battery and a socket for charging the rechargeable battery, the rechargeable battery being connected to the conductive rail to serve as the power supply.

12. The cabinet apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the illumination device and the conductive terminal form a module and is detachable from the conductive rail.

13. A cabinet light assembly to be assembled to a cabinet body, comprising:
