Abstract

This invention provides a fixture mounting device designed to be secured on both sides of a lighting fixture through fixed holes, enabling the fixture to be affixed to the ceiling. The device comprises a fixed bracket, a first fixing component, and a second fixing component. The first and second fixing components are connected to the fixed bracket on both sides through a first connecting protrusion and a second connecting protrusion, respectively. The user then exerts force on the first and second fixing components separately, driving the first fixing protrusion and the second fixing protrusion through the fixed bracket. This results in the fixed bracket being coupled on both sides of the lighting fixture, securing it to the ceiling through the fixed bracket. The installation of the lighting fixture on this fixture mounting device can be achieved rapidly without the need for manual tools.
