However, most malfunction conditions of conventional street lamps are scenarios in which a power supply device or a sensor controlling on-and-off of the LED street lamp is damaged or malfunctioning. The repairman has to remove a lampshade of an LED street lamp, and then replace a whole set of the lamp street structure. Therefore, such a maintenance method not only wastes time but also increases maintenance costs.
- There is already an electronic implement replacement structure in the market, in which an outer thread disposed on a light source structure and an inner thread disposed in the lampshade are screwed together to assemble the light source structure and the lampshade. However, in practice, during the assembly process, it is not easy to make the outer and inner threads cooperatively engaged, thus causing inconvenience in assembling the light source structure and the lampshade.

EP 2 423 570 A2 describes an LED light module with a bayonet connection between the housing body and the electronic module. - It is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic implement replacement structure, in which assembling, disassembling and replacing can be achieved without any tools.
- Accordingly, the present invention provides an electronic implement replacement structure including a housing body and an electronic module. The housing body has a base and a connecting_ring connected to the base. The connecting ring includes a plurality of press portions and a plurality of notches spaced apart from one another and respectively disposed between each two adjacent press portions.

- Referring to
Figs. 1 and2 , the present invention provides an electronicimplement replacement structure 100 which comprises ahousing body 102 and anelectronic module 300. Theelectronic module 300 herein is preferably a light emitting diode (LED) lamp. If theelectronic module 300 is the LED lamp, thehousing body 102 further has a plurality of radiatingfins 104 around theelectronic module 300, so as to conduct heat to outside thehousing body 102. However, in different embodiments, the electronic module may also be a surveillance camera such as a charge coupled device (CCD) camera or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) camera. - As shown in
Fig. 2 , thehousing body 102 includes abase 110 and a connectingring 120 connected to thebase 110. The connectingring 120 includes a plurality ofpress portions 124 and a plurality ofnotches 122 spaced apart from one another and respectively disposed between each twoadjacent press portions 124. According to the present embodiment, preferably the connectingring 120 is ring-shaped, consists of plastic or metal, and is fixed on thehousing body 102 by screws (not illustrated), wherein each of thenotches 122 and thepress portions 124 is equidistant from one another on the ring shaped connectingring 120. In another preferable embodiment, the connectingring 120 can also be integrally formed with thehousing body 102. According to the present embodiment, the ring-shaped connectingring 120 is divided into 6 parts by everynotch 122 andpress portion 124, and each part of the ring-shaped connectingring 120 is substantially 60 degrees (central angle). However, in different embodiments, the ring-shaped connectingring 120 can be divided into four parts by everynotch 122 andpress portion 124, and each part of the ring-shaped connectingring 120 is substantially 90 degrees (central angle). - It should be noted that, the connecting
ring 120 of the present embodiment consists of plastic or metal and is fixed to the periphery of thebase 110 by screws or other components. If the connectingring 120 is damaged or malfunctions accidentally, the connectingring 120 can be detached and replaced fast, thus facilitating repairing or assembling of theelectronic module 300. - A guiding
groove 126 is formed on an outer surface of each of thepress portions 124. The guidinggroove 126 is adjacent to each of thenotches 122, theguiding groove 126 and a surface of thehousing body 102 together include an inclined angle A. An inclination direction of the inclined angle A is from away from a surface of thehousing body 102 gradually toward the surface of thehousing body 102. That is to say, the direction of the guidinggroove 126 is inclined from upper right to bottom left. As shown inFig. 2 , thenotch 122 similarly has the inclined angle A, and thereby theelectronic module 300 is in alignment with thenotch 122 and quickly guided into the guidinggroove 126. On the contrary, to disassemble theelectronic module 300 from thebase 110, thenotch 122 having the inclined angle A can successfully make theelectronic module 300 detach from the base 110 in a vertical direction. Thereby, the assembly and disassembly operation can prevent damaging an electric signal connector (like aconductive terminal 312 shown inFig. 12 ) of theelectronic module 300. - The
electronic module 300 disposed on thebase 110 and corresponding to the connectingring 120. Theelectronic module 300 includes anelectronic unit 310 and arotatable ring 330 enclosing theelectronic unit 310. In the embodiment shown inFig. 2 , theelectronic unit 310 is preferably the LED lamp, and its structure will be described afterward. However, in the embodiment shown inFig. 3 , theelectronic unit 310 can be CCD, CMOS, or other suitable photosensitive elements. An inner wall of therotatable ring 330 has a slidingblock 332 correspondingly and rotatably engaged with the guidinggroove 126. - Referring to
Figs. 4 to 7 , theelectronic module 300 further includes a joiningelement 320 and anelastic positioning portion 322. The joiningelement 320 is hollow and has some integrally-formedfastening portions 324 to engage correspondingrecesses 317, so as to position and fix the joiningelement 320 on theelectronic unit 310. The joiningelement 320 has somehook portions 328 on the other lateral edge opposite to thefastening portions 324. Eachhook portion 328 hooks an inner edge of an open hole of therotatable ring 330, so as to restrict a movement of therotatable ring 330 along an axial direction. Theelastic positioning portion 322 elastically reciprocate on a circular-arc-shaped surface of the joiningelement 320, which allows visual inspection of therotatable ring 330 to determine whether it is rotated to a locked state. - Referring to
Fig. 4 andFig. 6 , an outer surface of therotatable ring 330 further forms a plurality ofopenings 334, and theelastic positioning portion 322 is disposed corresponding to theopening 334. When therotatable ring 330 rotates, thehook portion 328 restricts the movement ofrotatable ring 330 along the axial direction, but does not affect the rotation of therotatable ring 330. Furthermore, when therotatable ring 330 rotates, theelastic positioning portion 322 moves from one of theopenings 334 to engage adjacent or corresponding another one of theopenings 334. The location of eachopening 334 is designed according to a rotation distance of the guidinggroove 126 on thepress portion 124, which is for example 90 degrees or 60 degrees and varies according to requirements or designs. - Referring to
Figs. 8 to 11 , detailed descriptions are provided hereinafter to explain how theelectronic module 300 is assembled to thebase 110. To assemble theelectronic module 300, at first the repairman makes theelectronic module 300 be in alignment with thebase 110. In other words, eachconductive terminal 312 of theelectronic unit 310 is inserted into acorresponding slot 112 of the base 110 in order to make an electrical connection, as shown inFig. 11 . At this point, the slidingblock 332 of theelectronic module 300 enters into a corresponding one of thenotches 122. When therotatable ring 330 rotates, the slidingblock 332 slides along the guidinggroove 126 and rotates by an angle B to make theelectronic module 300 positioned on the base 110 at last. - According to the embodiment shown in
Figs. 8 and10 , an end surface of the guidinggroove 126 further has a protrudingportion 128 for engagement with the slidingblock 332, such that theelectronic module 300 is engaged on thebase 110. The angle B hereinbefore is preferably 60 degrees. In other words, a central angle of each press portion 124 (guiding groove 126) on the connectingring 120 is around 60 degrees. However, in different embodiments, the angle B can be around 90 degrees, namely a central angle of eachpress portion 124 on the connectingring 120 is around 90 degrees. Since the angle B required to fasten tightly is very small, even an ordinary consumer can assemble theelectronic module 300 to the base 110 fast and efficiently without any tools. - As clearly appears in
Fig. 11 , theelectronic module 330 is the LED lamp. That is to say, theelectronic unit 310 of theelectronic module 300 consists of theconductive terminal 312, anLED 314, aplastic cup 316,lens 318, related circuits (not illustrated), and other components. The related components belong to conventional techniques and thus a repetitive description thereof is omitted herein. - Referring to
Figs. 12 and13 , to disassemble theelectronic module 300 from thebase 110, the repairman rotates therotatable ring 330 at first, to make the slidingblock 332 of therotatable ring 330 detached from the protrudingportion 128 of the guidinggroove 126, until the slidingblock 332 slides to thenotch 122 of the connecting ring 122 (i.e. rotating by the angle B). When the slidingblock 332 of therotatable ring 330 gradually slides to the highest of thenotch 122, owing to the design of the inclined angle A of thenotch 122, theelectronic module 300 is gradually detached from the base 110 in a vertical direction. Referring toFig. 13 , theconductive terminal 312 of theelectronic module 300 is removed by the connectingring 120 from thebase 110 of thehousing body 102. Finally, theconductive terminal 312 of theelectronic module 300 is entirely detached from theslot 112 of the base 110 to complete the disassembly operation. - Therefore, to disassemble the
electronic module 300, the angle B by which therotatable ring 330 rotate to disassemble theelectronic module 300 is very small. Thus, the repairman can disassemble theelectronic module 300 from the base 110 fast and efficiently without any tools, thereby preventing damaging theconductive terminals 312 of theelectronic module 300.
