Thereby, the main body and the light source body are assembled and located with each other by the connection members in usage. The light source body can be changed for various needs or occasions. Thus the practicality and convenience of the portable light are improved due to diversity in applications. 10 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The structure and the technical means adopted by the present invention to achieve the above and other objects can be best understood 15 by referring to the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings, wherein Fig. I is a partial cross sectional view of an embodiment according to the present invention; Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view of the embodiment in Fig. 1 according to 5 the present invention; Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the embodiment in Fig. I according to the present invention; Fig. 4 is a cross sectional view of another embodiment according to the 5 present invention; Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the embodiment in Fig. 4 according to the present invention; Fig. 6 is a cross sectional view of a further embodiment according to the present invention; 10 Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the embodiment in Fig. 6 according to the present invention; Fig. 8 is a cross sectional view of a further embodiment according to the present invention; Fig. 9 is a perspective view of the embodiment in Fig. 8 according to the 15 present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring to Fig. 1, a partial cross sectional view of a main body of 6 an embodiment is revealed. The embodiment of the present invention includes a main body (1) and a battery compartment (11) that holds batteries disposed inside the main body (1). A rear cover (12) is arranged on a rear end of the main body (1) and a switch member (13) is disposed 5 on the rear cover (12). A connection member (14) is disposed on an edge of a front end of the main body (1) and the connection member (14) is a threaded section. Referring to Figs. 2 and 3, the connection member (14) of the main 10 body (1) is to connect with a light source body (2). The light source body (2) consists of a connection base (21) with a connection member (211) corresponding to the connection member (14) of the main body (1). When the connection member (14) of the main body (1) is a threaded section, the connection member (211) of the connection base (21) is also 15 a threaded section. A light source (22) is disposed in the connection base (21) and is connected with a conductive part (23). A lamp shield (24) is covered on the connection base (21). A reflector (25) corresponding to the light source (22) is also arranged on the light source (22). By a front cover (26), the lamp shield (24) is located on the connection base (21).
7 Accordingly, while in use, the light source body (2) can be changed according to users' requirements. A battery (111) is loaded into the battery compartment (11) inside the main body (1). And then assemble the main body (1) with the light source body (2) and connect them by the 5 connection members (14) and (211). Thus users can press the switch member (13) of the main body (1) so as to make the battery (111) provide power to the light source (22) of the light source body (2). Light emitted from the light source (22) is reflected by the reflector (25) that corresponds to the light source (22) and is projected through the lamp 10 shield (24). The light source body (2) can be replaced by users if they need. For example, the light source body (2) can be for general illumination, as the embodiment shown in Figs. 2 and 3. Or refer to another embodiment 15 shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the light source body (2) has a large area. And the reflector (25) in the light source body (2) is a concave curved surface with large area. Thus light from the light source (22) emits after reflected by the reflector (25) in large area so as to achieve large area illumination. Refer to Figs. 6 and 7, a cross sectional view and a perspective view of a 8 further embodiment are disclosed. The edge on the front end of the light source body (2) is disposed with a wave-like projecting part. Thus the device can not only be used for lighting, but also work as outdoor survival/rescue equipment. The wave-like projecting part on the front 5 end of the light source body (2) is used to dig things or break fragile objects such as glass etc. When a car falls into water, it is difficult for passengers in the car to escape through the door due to the water pressure. People can use the projecting part on the front end of the light source body (2) to break the window out and escape. Referring to Figs. 8 10 and 9, a cross sectional view and a perspective view of a further embodiment are disclosed. The connection base (21) is covered by a hollow lamp shield (24) filled with air therein. Thus the device is not only used as a lighting device but is also put into water as a fishing light. Due to air filled inside the lamp shield (24), the device floats on water 15 and light emitted therefrom attracts fish. Thus the device is used as a fishing light for anglers to attract fish, providing illumination while fishing, or working as a distress light for people floating in the water. In summary, compared with lights available now, the portable light of the present invention includes a connection member is disposed on the edge of the front end of a main body while a plurality of light source bodies for different conditions corresponding to the main body is provided. The light source body includes a connection member 5 corresponding to the connection member of the main body disposed on the connection base.
