請參照第1圖,其繪示依照本發明一實施例之燈管之端蓋結構101的示意圖。此端蓋結構101包括一第一蓋體110、一可旋轉本體120、二電極接腳130、二導電彈片140、一電路板150、一第二蓋體160以及二訊號導線170。第一蓋體110包括一端面111、一圓柱狀曲面112以及一環狀片113。端面111具有二容置孔114,用以容納二電極接腳130,以使二電極接腳130突出於端面111之外。此二容置孔114的內徑大致上等於或略大於柱狀二電極接腳130之外徑,以使二電極接腳130各別地穿過二容置孔114。此外,為了固定二電極接腳130於二容置孔114中,每一電極接腳130之外表面及相對應之容置孔114的內表面設有相互卡合之結構(例如卡環131或卡槽),以使二電極接腳130緊密地固定於端面111上。 Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a schematic diagram of an end cap structure 101 of a lamp tube according to an embodiment of the invention. The end cap structure 101 includes a first cover 110, a rotatable body 120, two electrode pins 130, two conductive elastic sheets 140, a circuit board 150, a second cover 160, and two signal wires 170. The first cover 110 includes an end surface 111, a cylindrical curved surface 112, and an annular piece 113. The end surface 111 has two receiving holes 114 for receiving the two-electrode pins 130 so that the two-electrode pins 130 protrude beyond the end surface 111. The inner diameter of the two receiving holes 114 is substantially equal to or slightly larger than the outer diameter of the columnar two-electrode pins 130, so that the two-electrode pins 130 pass through the two receiving holes 114, respectively. In addition, in order to fix the two-electrode pin 130 in the two accommodating holes 114, the outer surface of each of the electrode pins 130 and the inner surface of the corresponding accommodating hole 114 are provided with a structure that is engaged with each other (for example, the snap ring 131 or The card slot) is such that the two-electrode pin 130 is tightly fixed to the end face 111.

如第1圖所示,圓柱狀曲面112一體連接於端面111與環狀片113之間。圓柱狀曲面112的外徑略小於環狀片113之外徑,以形成一階梯突出面於圓柱狀曲面112與環狀片113之間。此外,環狀片113的下方設有二定位片115,此二定位片115與環狀片113之間相隔一預定間隙。另外,可旋轉本體120的下方對應於此二定位片115設有二定位槽121,用以容納此二定位片115。因此,當此二定位片115各別插入此二定位槽121時,此二定位片115支撐可旋轉本體120,並使可旋轉本體120能相對應於環狀片113旋轉。 As shown in FIG. 1, the cylindrical curved surface 112 is integrally connected between the end surface 111 and the annular piece 113. The outer diameter of the cylindrical curved surface 112 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the annular piece 113 to form a stepped projection surface between the cylindrical curved surface 112 and the annular piece 113. In addition, two positioning pieces 115 are disposed under the annular piece 113, and the two positioning pieces 115 and the annular piece 113 are separated by a predetermined gap. In addition, the lower portion of the rotatable body 120 is provided with two positioning slots 121 for receiving the two positioning tabs 115. Therefore, when the two positioning pieces 115 are respectively inserted into the two positioning grooves 121, the two positioning pieces 115 support the rotatable body 120, and the rotatable body 120 can rotate corresponding to the annular piece 113.

上述實施例中,雖以圓柱狀曲面112的外徑略小於環狀片113之外徑為範例,但本發明不以此為限,在另一實施例 中,圓柱狀曲面112的外徑可略大於環狀片113之外徑,以形成一階梯凹陷面於圓柱狀曲面112與環狀片113之間。當採用此較小外徑之環狀片113時,可旋轉本體120不需要再藉由上述之二定位片115定位,而是直接設置於環狀片113之外表面,並且藉由適當的滑動設計,讓可旋轉本體120能相對於環狀片113旋轉。因此,本案第1圖中採用二定位片115定位的可旋轉本體120僅為本發明其中一種實施方式而已,並非用以限制本發明。 In the above embodiment, although the outer diameter of the cylindrical curved surface 112 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the annular piece 113, the present invention is not limited thereto, and another embodiment The outer diameter of the cylindrical curved surface 112 may be slightly larger than the outer diameter of the annular piece 113 to form a stepped concave surface between the cylindrical curved surface 112 and the annular piece 113. When the annular piece 113 of the smaller outer diameter is used, the rotatable body 120 does not need to be positioned by the above-mentioned two positioning pieces 115, but is directly disposed on the outer surface of the annular piece 113, and is appropriately slid. The design allows the rotatable body 120 to rotate relative to the annular sheet 113. Therefore, the rotatable body 120 positioned by the two positioning pieces 115 in the first figure of the present invention is only one embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention.

可旋轉本體120的功能如同一開關(參見第4B圖之開關SW),可供使用者手動切換電源之用。請參照第1圖,環狀片113包括一凹槽116,可旋轉本體120包括一滑塊122,滑塊122容置於凹槽116中,且滑塊122可供使用者施力並使滑塊122在凹槽116中沿著一滑動方向(凹槽116的長度方向)移動,如第2A及2B圖所示。 The function of the rotatable body 120 is the same switch (see the switch SW of FIG. 4B), and the user can manually switch the power source. Referring to FIG. 1 , the annular piece 113 includes a recess 116. The rotatable body 120 includes a slider 122. The slider 122 is received in the recess 116, and the slider 122 can be applied to the user and slide. The block 122 moves in the groove 116 in a sliding direction (the length direction of the groove 116) as shown in Figs. 2A and 2B.

請參照第2A及2B圖,其分別繪示第1圖之端蓋結構101的組裝示意圖,第2A及2B圖的差異在於滑塊122的位置不同。承上所述,第一蓋體110包括一環狀片113,且可旋轉本體120沿著一滑動方向設置於環狀片113上。此外,端蓋結構101還可包括一第二蓋體160,此第二蓋體160與第一蓋體110組合並固定在第一蓋體110上。在一實施例中,環狀片113設置於第一蓋體110之一側,並且固定於第一蓋體110與第二蓋體160之間。但在另一實施例中,環狀片113設置於第二蓋體160面對第一蓋體110之一相對側,並且固定於第一蓋體110與第二蓋體160之間。本案第1圖採用的環狀片113僅為其中一種實施例,並非用以限制本發明。 Please refer to FIGS. 2A and 2B , which respectively show the assembly diagram of the end cap structure 101 of FIG. 1 . The difference between the 2A and 2B drawings is that the positions of the sliders 122 are different. As described above, the first cover 110 includes an annular piece 113, and the rotatable body 120 is disposed on the annular piece 113 along a sliding direction. In addition, the end cap structure 101 can further include a second cover 160 that is combined with the first cover 110 and fixed to the first cover 110. In one embodiment, the annular piece 113 is disposed on one side of the first cover 110 and is fixed between the first cover 110 and the second cover 160. In another embodiment, the annular piece 113 is disposed on an opposite side of the second cover 160 facing the first cover 110 and is fixed between the first cover 110 and the second cover 160. The annular sheet 113 used in the first embodiment of the present invention is only one of the embodiments, and is not intended to limit the present invention.

可旋轉本體120設置於第一蓋體110與第二蓋體160之間,並顯露出滑塊122於環狀片113之凹槽116中。當第二蓋體160與第一蓋體110組合並固定在第一蓋體110上時,原本凹槽116之一側為開口側,但被第二蓋體160之一側壁162封閉而形成一封閉側後,變為一封閉式凹槽116。 The rotatable body 120 is disposed between the first cover 110 and the second cover 160 and exposes the slider 122 in the recess 116 of the annular piece 113. When the second cover 160 is combined with the first cover 110 and fixed on the first cover 110, one side of the original recess 116 is an open side, but is closed by one side wall 162 of the second cover 160 to form a After closing the side, it becomes a closed groove 116.

上述之滑塊122的寬度尺寸W大致上與封閉式凹槽116的寬度尺寸W一致,但滑塊122的長度尺寸L1小於封閉式凹槽116的長度尺寸L2或約為封閉式凹槽116的長度尺寸L2的1/2~1/3,以使滑塊122明顯地由封閉式凹槽116的一端(參見第2A圖)滑動至另一端(參見第2B圖)。 The width dimension W of the slider 122 is substantially the same as the width dimension W of the closed groove 116, but the length dimension L1 of the slider 122 is smaller than the length dimension L2 of the closed groove 116 or about the closed groove 116. The length dimension L2 is 1/2 to 1/3 so that the slider 122 is apparently slid from one end of the closed groove 116 (see Fig. 2A) to the other end (see Fig. 2B).

上述之第二蓋體160可為具有二固定孔161的環狀本體,且第二蓋體160可藉由螺絲等鎖固件(圖未繪示)穿過二固定孔161而鎖固於第一蓋體110上。在一實施例中,第二蓋體160例如為單一組件,獨立組裝在第一蓋體110上,且第一蓋體110可藉由第二蓋體160組裝在燈管的管體的端部上,如第4A圖所示之燈管100。在另一實施例中,第二蓋體160例如為燈管之管體的一端部,第一蓋體110可藉由第二蓋體160直接組裝在管體的端部上。因此,本案第1圖中採用獨立組裝的第二蓋體160僅為本發明其中一種實施方式而已,並非用以限制本發明。 The second cover body 160 can be an annular body having two fixing holes 161, and the second cover body 160 can be locked to the first through the two fixing holes 161 by a fastener such as a screw (not shown). On the cover 110. In an embodiment, the second cover 160 is, for example, a single component, and is separately assembled on the first cover 110, and the first cover 110 can be assembled at the end of the tube of the tube by the second cover 160. Above, the lamp tube 100 as shown in Fig. 4A. In another embodiment, the second cover 160 is, for example, one end of the tube of the tube, and the first cover 110 can be directly assembled on the end of the tube by the second cover 160. Therefore, the use of the independently assembled second cover 160 in the first embodiment of the present invention is only one embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.

請參照第2A圖,當可旋轉本體120的滑塊122位於封閉式凹槽116的一端時,電源被切換至一關閉(off)狀態,此時,外部電源無法經由二電極接腳130供電。請參照第2B圖,當可旋轉本體120的滑塊122位於封閉式凹槽116的另一端時,電源被切換至一開啟(on)狀態,此時,外部電源可經由二電極接 腳130供電。因此,本實施例之端蓋結構101具有手動切換開關之功能,以開啟或關閉電源。 Referring to FIG. 2A, when the slider 122 of the rotatable body 120 is located at one end of the closed recess 116, the power source is switched to an off state, at which time the external power source cannot be powered via the two-electrode pin 130.

In FIG. 3A, the rotatable body 120 of FIG. 1 is assembled with the circuit board 150, and at least one contact 151 is disposed on the circuit board 150. When the number of the electrode pins 130 is one, as long as a corresponding one of the contacts 151 is in contact with or not in contact with the electrode pins 130, however, when the number of the electrode pins 130 is two, as long as there is a corresponding one The contact 151 or more than one contact 151 may be used, and there is no need to have two contacts 151. The two contacts 151 are provided to ensure that the at least one electrode pin 130 and the at least one contact 151 are electrically connected to each other.

此外,二訊號導線170之一端可藉由二接墊153與電路板150電性連接,且此二訊號導線170之另一端連接至一驅動器104,以提供電力至驅動器104。如第4A圖所示,驅動器104設置燈管之管體中,用以驅動發光元件,例如發光二極體單元等。 In addition, one end of the two signal wires 170 can be electrically connected to the circuit board 150 through the two pads 153, and the other end of the two signal wires 170 is connected to a driver 104 to provide power to the driver 104.

In addition, in FIG. 3B, the circuit board 150 can electrically connect at least one contact 151 to the at least one electrode pin 130 by the rotation of the rotatable body 120, so that the power source is switched to an open state.

在一實施例中,可旋轉本體120例如包括一定位開口123,而電路板150包括一板體152,如第1圖所示。板體152朝定位開口123延伸並嵌合於定位開口123中,以使可旋轉本體120與電路板150組裝在一起,如第3A圖所示。但上述之定位開 口123與板體152的位置可互換,亦即,在另一實施例中,可旋轉本體120包括一板體152,而電路板150包括一定位開口123。板體152朝定位開口123延伸並嵌合於定位開口123中,以使可旋轉本體120與電路板150組裝在一起。上述之定位開口123與板體152相互嵌合之結構亦可由其他類似的卡合或鎖固結構代替,本發明對此不加以限制。 In one embodiment, the rotatable body 120 includes, for example, a locating opening 123, and the circuit board 150 includes a plate 152, as shown in FIG. The plate body 152 extends toward the positioning opening 123 and is fitted into the positioning opening 123 to assemble the rotatable body 120 with the circuit board 150 as shown in FIG. 3A. But the above positioning is open The position of the port 123 and the plate 152 are interchangeable, that is, in another embodiment, the rotatable body 120 includes a plate 152 and the circuit board 150 includes a positioning opening 123. The plate body 152 extends toward the positioning opening 123 and is fitted into the positioning opening 123 to assemble the rotatable body 120 with the circuit board 150. The structure in which the positioning opening 123 and the plate body 152 are fitted to each other may be replaced by other similar snapping or locking structures, which is not limited in the present invention.

此外,電路板150與至少一電極接腳130之間可進一步設置至少一導電彈片140。當電極接腳130的數量為一個時,只要有相對應的一個導電彈片140與電極接腳130接觸,然而,當電極接腳130的數量為二個時,則設有二個導電彈片140分別與二電極接腳130接觸。在第3A圖中,此二導電彈片140之一端固定連接相對應之二電極接腳130的卡環132,另一端延伸至電路板150並形成一彎曲部141,利用此彎曲部141的彈性抵壓電路板150。在第3A圖中,此二導電彈片140與二接點151不接觸,以使電源被切換至一關閉狀態。此外,在第3B圖中,電路板150可藉由可旋轉本體120之旋轉而隨之旋轉,並使二導電彈片140與二接點151相接觸,以使電源被切換至一開啟狀態。 In addition, at least one conductive elastic piece 140 may be further disposed between the circuit board 150 and the at least one electrode pin 130. When the number of the electrode pins 130 is one, as long as a corresponding one of the conductive elastic pieces 140 is in contact with the electrode pin 130, however, when the number of the electrode pins 130 is two, two conductive elastic pieces 140 are respectively provided. It is in contact with the two electrode pins 130. In FIG. 3A, one end of the two conductive elastic pieces 140 is fixedly connected to the snap ring 132 of the corresponding two-electrode pin 130, and the other end extends to the circuit board 150 and forms a curved portion 141. The circuit board 150 is pressed. In FIG. 3A, the two conductive elastic pieces 140 are not in contact with the two contacts 151, so that the power source is switched to a closed state. In addition, in FIG. 3B, the circuit board 150 can be rotated by the rotation of the rotatable body 120, and the two conductive elastic pieces 140 are brought into contact with the two contacts 151, so that the power source is switched to an open state.

上述之電路板150的中心設有一孔洞154,此孔洞154可使一軸件(圖未繪示)穿過並定位於第一蓋體110的中心位置上,以使電路板150被軸件支撐而固定在第一蓋體110上,且電路板150還可相對於軸件旋轉,用以做為切換電源之用。 A hole 154 is defined in the center of the circuit board 150. The hole 154 allows a shaft member (not shown) to pass through and be positioned at a central position of the first cover 110 so that the circuit board 150 is supported by the shaft member. The first cover 110 is fixed on the first cover 110, and the circuit board 150 is also rotatable relative to the shaft for use as a power source for switching.

雖然上述實施例中皆以可旋轉本體120來帶動電路板150旋轉,以使電路板150的接點151的位置產生位移。但在另一實施例中,當第一蓋體110本身具有可旋轉功能時,亦可取 代上述之可旋轉本體120。不同之處在於:此時的電路板150不需要被帶動,而是固定在第二蓋體160上,當第一蓋體110旋轉時,電極接腳130及導電彈片140被第一蓋體110帶動而產生位移,並使二導電彈片140與二接點151相接觸或不接觸,同樣能達到切換電源的功效。 Although the above-described embodiment drives the circuit board 150 to rotate by the rotatable body 120, the position of the contact 151 of the circuit board 150 is displaced. However, in another embodiment, when the first cover 110 itself has a rotatable function, it may also be taken. The rotatable body 120 is replaced by the above. The difference is that the circuit board 150 at this time does not need to be driven, but is fixed on the second cover body 160. When the first cover body 110 rotates, the electrode pin 130 and the conductive elastic piece 140 are replaced by the first cover body 110. The displacement is generated and the two conductive elastic sheets 140 are in contact with or not in contact with the two contacts 151, and the power supply can be switched.

The electrical connection is used to provide the external power source 200 required for the lamp 100, such as an alternating current power source or a direct current power source.

如第4A圖所示,供電迴路10例如為由燈管100之兩端入電的交流電路。當燈管100的內部線路PW3藉由手動切換開關SW而電性連接至第二電源線PW2時,驅動器104接收外部電源200並受到電流驅動而開啟(turn on)[d1],以使燈管100導通於供電迴路10中。另外,在第4B圖中,當燈管100的內部線路PW3藉由手動切換開關SW而與第二電源線PW2電性隔離時,驅動器104被切斷外部電源200而無法接收外部電源200,以使燈管100未被導通於供電迴路10中。 As shown in FIG. 4A, the power supply circuit 10 is, for example, an AC circuit that is powered by both ends of the lamp tube 100. When the internal line PW3 of the lamp tube 100 is electrically connected to the second power line PW2 by manually switching the switch SW, the driver 104 receives the external power source 200 and is driven by current to turn on [d1] to make the tube 100 is conducted in the power supply circuit 10. In addition, in FIG. 4B, when the internal line PW3 of the lamp tube 100 is electrically isolated from the second power line PW2 by manually switching the switch SW, the driver 104 is cut off from the external power source 200 and cannot receive the external power source 200. The lamp tube 100 is not turned into the power supply circuit 10.
