Abstract

A lighting module for illuminating device may include at least one lighting component; at least one lighting component bracket bearing its corresponding lighting component; and one mounting trail, wherein each lighting component bracket is mounted onto the mounting trail and fixed onto a shell of the illuminating device by the mounting trail.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A lighting module for illuminating device, the lighting module comprising:
at least one lighting component;
a plurality of first and second lighting component brackets bearing corresponding lighting component; and
one mounting rail formed in a linear shape with end-caps provided at each of two ends of the mounting rail,
wherein the first and the second lighting component brackets are formed in a linear shape with a first and a second ends;
wherein the mounting rail is longer than the first and the second lighting component brackets;
wherein the first and the second lighting component brackets are mounted onto the mounting rail and perpendicular to the mounting rail having a cross shape extending to the left and right of the mounting rail;
wherein the first lighting component brackets and the second lighting component brackets are alternately provided on the front and the back sides of the mounting rail;
wherein the first end of the first lighting component brackets are electrically connected with the first end of the second lighting component brackets by wires and the second end of the first lighting component brackets are electrically connected with the second end of the second lighting component brackets by wires; and
wherein the mounting rail is fixed onto a shell of the illuminating device by the end-caps of the mounting rail.

2. The lighting module according to claim 1 ,
wherein the mounting rail has a plurality of accommodating portions, and the first and the second lighting component bracket are mounted into its corresponding accommodating portion.

3. The lighting module according to claim 2 ,
wherein the first and the second lighting component bracket are mounted into its corresponding accommodating portion by interference fit with a fastener.

4. The lighting module according to claim 2 ,
wherein the plurality of accommodating portions are provided on both sides of the mounting rail, respectively, along an extending direction of the mounting rail.

5. The lighting module according to claim 4 ,
wherein the accommodating portions are notches provided in the mounting rail, wherein the notches provided on both sides of the mounting rail are in a staggered arrangement.

6. An illuminating device, comprising:
at least one lighting module, comprising:
at least one lighting component;
a plurality of first and second lighting component brackets bearing corresponding lighting component; and
one mounting rail formed in a linear shape with end-caps provided at each of two ends of the mounting rail,
wherein the first and the second lighting component brackets are formed in a linear shape with a first and a second ends;
wherein the mounting rail is longer than the first and the second lighting component brackets;
wherein the first and the second lighting component bracket are mounted onto the mounting rail and perpendicular to the mounting rail having a cross shape extending to the left and right of the mounting rail;
wherein the first lighting component brackets and the second lighting component brackets are alternately provided on the front and the back sides of the mounting rail;
wherein the first end of the first lighting component brackets are electrically connected with the first end of the second lighting component brackets by wires and the second end of the first lighting component brackets are electrically connected with the second end of the second lighting component brackets by wires; and
wherein the mounting rail is fixed onto a shell of the illuminating device by the end-caps of the mounting rail.

7. A method for fabricating a illuminating device, the method comprising:
a) providing at least one lighting component;
b) fixing the at least one lighting component onto corresponding a first and a second lighting component bracket, wherein the first and the second lighting component bracket are formed in a linear shape with a first and a second ends;
c) mounting the at least one lighting component bracket onto one mounting rail, wherein the mounting rail is formed in a linear shape with end-caps provided at each of two ends of the mounting rail, and wherein the mounting rail is longer than the first and the second lighting component brackets;
d) installing the first and the second lighting component bracket perpendicular to the mounting rail having a cross shape extending to the left and right of the mounting rail, wherein the first lighting component brackets and the second lighting component brackets are alternately provided on the front and the back sides of the mounting rail;
e) electrically connecting the first end of the first lighting component brackets and the first end of the second lighting component brackets, and the second end of the first lighting component brackets and the second end of the second lighting component brackets in series by wires; and
f) fixing the mounting rail onto a shell of the illuminating device by the end caps of the mounting rail.
