Abstract

A sectional LED lamp includes a base portion, a lamp portion, and a connecting unit. The base portion includes a base body having an LED driving unit provided therein. The lamp portion includes a lamp body detachably connected at an end to the base body, a lampshade fitted around the lamp body, and at least one LED chip arranged in the lampshade and electrically connected to the lamp body. The connecting unit is located between two adjacent ends of the base body and the lamp body for electrically connecting the LED driving unit to the LED chip and detachably connecting the base portion to the lamp portion. A space is maintained between the base portion and the lampshade, allowing heat generated by the LED chip to quickly dissipate via the space into surround environment.

Claims (9)

1. A sectional LED lamp, comprising:

a base portion including a base body having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, an LED driving unit provided in the base body, and a connecting terminal located at the first end of the base body and electrically connected to the LED driving unit and a power supply;

a lamp portion including a lamp body detachably connected to the base body, the lamp body having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, the first end of the lamp body being adjacent to the second end of the base body; the lamp portion further including a lampshade fitted around the lamp body and having an open front end, and at least one LED chip arranged in a space defined in the open front end of the lampshade and electrically connected to the second end of the lamp body; and

a connecting unit located between the second end of the base body of the base portion and the first end of the lamp body of the lamp portion for electrically connecting the LED driving unit to the LED chip, the connecting unit also detachably connected the lamp portion to the base portion with a predetermined space maintained between the second end of the base body and a rear end of the lampshade of the lamp portion;

wherein the connecting unit includes a coupling socket formed at the second end of the base body for accommodating the first end of the lamp body therein, two spaced slots formed on a bottom of the coupling socket and electrically connected to the LED driving unit, and two conducting pins protruded from the first end of the lamp body to insert into the two slots and electrically connected to the LED chip.

2. The sectional LED lamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting unit further includes at least one stopper formed on and protruded from an inner surface of the coupling socket, and at least one wing portion formed on an outer surface at the first end of the lamp body; and the stopper and the wing portion being engaged with each other when the first end of the lamp body is inserted into the coupling socket.

3. The sectional LED lamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a plurality of heat-radiating members are spaced on and connected to an outer surface of the lampshade.

4. The sectional LED lamp as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the open front end of the lampshade is covered by a transparent member.

5. The sectional LED lamp as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising two watertight sealing members fitted around the base body of the base portion and the lamp body of the lamp portion at joints between the connecting unit and the base body and the lamp body, such that the two watertight sealing members are tightly pressed against each other in a watertight relation when the lamp body and the base body are assembled together, preventing water from invading into the assembled lamp body and base body.
