Abstract:
A do-it-yourself (DIY) lamp connecting structure, comprising a hanging frame inside a switch box and a conductive connector fixed on the lamp; wherein said switch box at its center having a fixing hole for mounting the hanging frame, and a through hole disposed on a lateral side of the switch box, and a conductive base disposed on the inner side of the through hole for letting a control rod pass through;said hanging frame having a socket extended upward from the side of the hanging frame, and a pivotal base extended from the side edge of the central hole of the hanging frame; a ratchet blocking wheel, pivotally coupled to pivotal base proximate to the bottom of the pivotal base, and a latch member pivotally coupled to the top end of the pivotal base by a spring, and the lower half section of an aslant plane of the latch member aligning with the plane of the ratchet blocking wheel, such that the blocking wheel rotating in the same direction, and the plane of the utmost bottom of the latch member pressing against the serrations of the blocking wheel so that the blocking wheel not able to rotate in the reverse direction; said conductive connector having a connector section aligning with the central hole of the hanging frame and protruded upward from the interior of the hanging frame, and a ratchet serrated edge engaged with the blocking wheel, disposed at an end of the blocking wheel of the hanging frame aligned with the conductive connector; such arrangement accomplishes the effect of reducing the volume of the lamp for transportation and storage, and facilitating users to assemble the lamp on their own.
