Abstract

An LED lighting fixture, a lens module and a lamp fastener are provided herein. The lamp fastener includes a first clamping lug and a clamp slot configured for fixing a base plate and a lens body of the LED lighting fixture and a second clamping lug configured for clamping an LED light source of the LED lighting fixture onto the lens body. The lens body is connected with the base plate through a first clamping lug and a clamp slot, and the LED light source is clamped on the lens body through a second clamping lug, which, as compared with screwing, consumes less time, and can improve mounting efficiency of the LED lighting fixture, to save time and labor.

Claims (24)

1. A lamp fastener, comprising:

a first clamping lug and a clamp slot, configured for fixing a base plate and a lens body of a light-emitting diode (LED) lighting fixture; and

a second clamping lug, configured for clamping an LED light source of the LED lighting fixture onto the lens body, wherein the second clamping lug and an avoidance slot on the base plate are in an interference fit and the interference fit comprises a maximum cross-sectional area of the second clamping lug that is larger than a cross-sectional area of the avoidance slot, and when the second clamping lug is inserted into the avoidance via the interference fit, a firmness of the lens body to the base plate is improved, and a possibility of fracture of the first clamping lug is reduced.

2. The lamp fastener according to claim 1 , wherein the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are both connected with the lens body; the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are disposed separately; the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are both located on a same surface of the lens body and are perpendicular to the lens body.

3. The lamp fastener according to claim 2 , wherein the clamp slot and the avoidance slot are disposed separately.

4. The lamp fastener according to claim 2 , wherein the first clamping lugs are provided in plural and arranged in pairs on both sides of the lens body; and in at least a part of the pairs of the first clamping lugs, each of the first clamping lugs, on a same side thereof, is correspondingly provided one second clamping lug.

5. The lamp fastener according to claim 4 , wherein a distance between each of the first clamping lugs and the second clamping lug corresponding thereto is 2 mm to 5 mm.

6. The lamp fastener according to claim 2 , wherein the first clamping lug is a board body with a rear end connected to the lens body and a front end provided with a protrusion to be inserted into the clamp slot,

the second clamping lug is a board body with a rear end connected to the lens body and a front end provided with a protrusion for clamping the LED light source.

7. A lens module of an LED lighting fixture, comprising:

a base plate and a lens body connected with the base plate by a lamp fastener, wherein the lamp fastener comprises:

a first clamping lug and a clamp slot, configured for fixing the base plate and the lens body of the LED lighting fixture; and

a second clamping lug, configured for clamping an LED light source of the LED lighting fixture onto the lens body, wherein the second clamping lug and an avoidance slot on the base plate are in an interference fit and the interference fit comprises a maximum cross-sectional area of the second clamping lug that is larger than a cross-sectional area of the avoidance slot, and when the second clamping lug is inserted into the avoidance via the interference fit, a firmness of the lens body to the base plate is improved, and a possibility of fracture of the first clamping lug is reduced.

8. The lens module according to claim 7 , wherein the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are both connected with the lens body; the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are disposed separately; the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are both located on a same surface of the lens body and are perpendicular to the lens body.

9. The lens module according to claim 8 , wherein the clamp slot and the avoidance slot are disposed separately.

10. The lens module according to claim 8 , wherein the first clamping lugs are provided in plural and arranged in pairs on both sides of the lens body; and in at least a part of the pairs of the first clamping lugs, each of the first clamping lugs, on a same side thereof, is correspondingly provided one second clamping lug.

11. The lens module according to claim 7 , wherein the lens body is of a strip structure and is provided with a receiving slot for receiving the LED light source of the LED lighting fixture; an insertion opening for inserting the LED light source is provided at an end portion of the receiving slot; and the second clamping lugs are located on both sides of the receiving slot.

12. An LED lighting fixture, comprising a lens module, and an LED light source provided on the lens module, wherein the lens module comprises:

a base plate and a lens body connected with the base plate by a lamp fastener, wherein the lamp fastener comprises:

a first clamping lug and a clamp slot, configured for fixing the base plate and the lens body of the LED lighting fixture; and

a second clamping lug, configured for clamping an LED light source of the LED lighting fixture onto the lens body, wherein the second clamping lug and an avoidance slot on the base plate are in an interference fit and the interference fit comprises a maximum cross-sectional area of the second clamping lug that is larger than a cross-sectional area of the avoidance slot, and when the second clamping lug is inserted into the avoidance via the interference fit, a firmness of the lens body to the base plate is improved, and a possibility of fracture of the first clamping lug is reduced.

13. The LED lighting fixture according to claim 12 , wherein the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are both connected with the lens body; the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are disposed separately; the first clamping lug and the second clamping lug are both located on a same surface of the lens body and are perpendicular to the lens body.

14. The LED lighting fixture according to claim 13 , wherein the clamp slot and the avoidance slot are disposed separately.

15. The LED lighting fixture according to claim 12 , wherein the first clamping lugs are provided in plural and arranged in pairs on both sides of the lens body; and in at least a part of the pairs of the first clamping lugs, each of the first clamping lugs, on a same side thereof, is correspondingly provided one second clamping lug.
