Downlight apparatus, having heat dissipation plate and leaf springs
A downlight apparatus includes a driver box, a light source, a light housing with a light holder and a rim, leaf springs with spring holes, a heat dissipation plate provided between the light holder and the driver box, shaft connectors passing through the spring holes, and pads having a pad scraper surrounding a pad hole. The light holder has a holder plate and a holder wall defining a holder cavity. The leaf springs are placed between the driver box and the light holder. The heat dissipation plate has a portion not covered by the light holder and the driver box.
1 . A downlight apparatus, comprising:
a driver box;
a light source;
a light housing with a light holder and a rim, wherein the light holder has a holder plate and a holder wall defining a holder cavity, wherein the light source is placed on an inner side of the holder plate in the holder cavity;
multiple leaf springs, wherein the multiple leaf springs are placed between the driver box and the light holder; and
a heat dissipation plate placed between the light holder and the driver box for carrying away both heat of the driver box and the light source, wherein the heat dissipation plate has a portion not covered by the light holder and the driver box.
2 . The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the leaf spring has a spring head and spring tail, wherein the spring tail is rotated to extend outside the light holder.
3 . The downlight apparatus of claim 2 , wherein a limiting unit is placed between the driver box and the light holder for limiting rotation of at least one of the leaf springs.
4 . The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a driver plate is placed inside the driver box, wherein the driver plate is kept a distance from a bottom of the driver box and the light holder.
5 . The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a top plate of the driver box has a wire socket and a manual switch, wherein the wire socket is connected to a power wire and the manual switch is used for adjusting a setting of the light source.
6 . The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising multiple shaft connectors and multiple pads, wherein each pad has a pad hole and a pad scraper surrounding the pad hole, wherein at least one of the pad scraper has a protruding part engaging an electric insulation layer on a top side of the holder plate, wherein the shaft connector sequentially passes through a spring hole of the leaf spring, the pad hole and the top plate of the light holder, wherein the protruding part of the pad scraper scrapes a portion of the electric insulation layer of the holder plate for connecting the holder plate to ground.
7 . The downlight apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the pads and the shaft connectors are made of metal material.
