Abstract

A power saving lamp includes a base, a cover, a light source and a solar cell. The cover is fixed on the base. The light source is arranged on the base and inside the cover. The solar cell is arranged on the base or the cover and close to the light source. The solar cell can convert the solar power into electric power for further use to realize the use of driving the light source to emit light. The utilization efficiency of the light from the light source can be improved and the electric power can be saved. Besides, when the solar cell is closer to the light source, the photoelectric converting efficiency of the solar cell is higher and the recycle of the light can be realized. The utilization efficiency of the light from the light source can be further improved and the electric power can be saved.

Claims (12)

1. A power saving lamp comprising:

a base;

a cover having an inverted bowl shape and having a bottom fixed to said base;

a light source arranged on said base and inside said cover; and

a ring-shaped solar cell arranged on an inner surface of said cover;

wherein said solar cell is an assembly including a plate and a plurality of solar cell components arranged on said plate, said solar cell components including a solar cell set, a solar cell controller, and a battery, said solar cell set being used for converting solar power from said light source into electric power which is transformed by an inverter into alternating current for supplying power to said light source.

2. A power saving lamp comprising:

a rectangular base;

a rectangular cover having a bottom fixed to said rectangular base;

a fluorescent lamp transversely arranged on said base and inside said cover; and

a rectangular solar cell arranged on an inner top of said cover;

wherein said solar cell is an assembly including a plate and a plurality of solar cell components arranged on said plate, said solar cell components including a solar cell set, a solar cell controller, and a battery, said solar cell set being used for converting solar power from said light source into electric power which is transformed by an inverter into alternating current for supplying power to said fluorescent lamp.
