Abstract

A lamp is disclosed, which comprises a tubular, an elongate and two end-caps, wherein the tubular body comprises two ends of the tubular body; the elongate light source board is inside the tubular body along a longitudinal direction thereof, and the elongate light source board comprises at least one light source arranged thereon and two ends of the elongate light source board; two end-caps are adapted to seal the two ends of the tubular body respectively, and at least one end-cap is slidingly connected to one of the two ends of the tubular body and fixedly connected to one of the two ends of the elongate light source board. The lamp of the present disclosure can be adapted to temperature changes, and can avoid an overall length variation, and/or a bending deformation in appearance.

Claims (18)

1. A lamp, comprising:

a tubular body having two ends of the tubular body;

an elongate light source board inside the tubular body along a longitudinal direction thereof, the elongate light source board having at least one light source arranged thereon and two ends of the elongate light source board; and

two end-caps adapted to seal the two ends of the tubular body respectively, at least one end-cap being slidingly connected to one of the two ends of the tubular body and fixedly connected to one of the two ends of the elongate light source board;

wherein the at least one end-cap comprises a through hole, the one of the two ends of the elongate light source board comprises a screw hole adapted to match with the through hole, the at least one end-cap fixedly connected to the one of the two ends of the elongate light source board through a screw.

2. The lamp according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one end-cap comprises a cavity for receiving the one of the two ends of the tubular body and being adapted to the length variation of the tubular body due to thermal expansion and contraction of the tubular body.

3. The lamp according to claim 1 , wherein the length of the elongate light source board is longer than the length of the tubular body, at least one end of the elongate light source board extends outside of the tubular body.

4. The lamp according to claim 1 , wherein a cross-section of the tubular body is oval-shaped, rectangular or water-droplet-shaped.

5. The lamp according to claim 1 , wherein the tubular body further comprises at least one pair of fixing grooves formed on both sides of the inner surface of the tubular body for securing the elongate light source board.

6. The lamp according to claim 1 , wherein the tubular body comprises a light transmitting part and a light reflective part separated by a plane of the elongate light source board, the light transmitting part is toward the light-emitting direction of the at least one light source, the light reflective part is back to the light-emitting direction of the at least one light source.

7. The lamp according to claim 6 , wherein the light transmitting part is bigger than the light reflective part.

8. The lamp according to any one of claim 1 , claim 5 to claim 7 , wherein the tubular body is formed integrally.

9. A lamp, comprising:

a tubular body having two ends of the tubular body;

an elongate light source board inside the tubular body along a longitudinal direction thereof, the elongate light source board having at least one light source arranged thereon and two ends of the elongate light source board; and

two end-caps adapted to seal the two ends of the tubular body respectively, at least one end-cap being slidingly connected to one of the two ends of the tubular body and fixedly connected to one of the two ends of the elongate light source board;

wherein the tubular body comprises a light transmitting part and a light reflective part separated by a plane of the elongate light source board, the light transmitting part is toward the light-emitting direction of the at least one light source, the light reflective part is back to the light-emitting direction of the at least one light source.

10. The lamp according to claim 9 , wherein the light transmitting part is bigger than the light reflective part.
