Abstract

The present invention discloses a standard lamp, which comprises a lamp seat installed in a standard. The lamp seat is electrically connected with a circuit board. At least one USB interface includes a cartridge disposed in the standard and a USB socket module disposed inside the cartridge. A wall of the cartridge, which is corresponding to the socket of the USB socket module, has at least one opening. The interface of an external USB data line can be passed through the opening and inserted into the socket of the USB socket module. The USB socket module is separated from the circuit board and electrically connected with the circuit board through cables. Therefore, the USB interface is reduced to a smaller size and requires less space for installation. Thus, the position for installing the USB interface has higher selectivity, and the overall esthetics of the standard is improved.

Claims

1. A standard lamp comprising a standard, a circuit board, a lamp seat installed in said base and electrically connected with said circuit board, and at least one USB interface,

wherein said USB interface includes a cartridge disposed in said standard and a USB socket module disposed inside said cartridge, and

wherein said USB socket module is separated from said circuit board and electrically connected with said circuit board through cables, and

wherein said USB socket module includes at least one of Type-C USB sockets, Micro USB sockets, and Mini USB sockets, and

wherein a wall of said cartridge, which is corresponding to a socket of said USB socket module, has at least one opening, and

wherein an interface of an external USB data line can be passed through said opening and inserted into said socket of said USB socket module.

2. The standard lamp according to claim 1, wherein said standard incudes a plurality of studs distributed in a polygonal way and a plurality of support boards connected with all said studs, and wherein said lamp seat and said circuit board are installed on said support board disposed in an upper region of said standard.

3. The standard lamp according to claim 2, wherein there are four said studs disposed in a rectangular way.

4. The standard lamp according to claim 2, wherein at least one said stud has an installing hole for installing said cartridge, and wherein after said cartridge is installed in said installation hole, said opening is faced outward.

5. The standard lamp according to claim 2, wherein said cartridge is made of plastic and includes a casing whose one side is open and a cover connected with said casing and covering said casing.

6. The standard lamp according to claim 5, wherein said casing and said cover can be detachably connected with each other through screw structures or press-fit structures.

7. The standard lamp according to claim 4, wherein said cartridge has avoidance recesses on at least one set of opposite sides;

an elastic plate is arched upward and connected with a front wall and a rear wall of said avoidance recess;

while pressed, said elastic plate is elastically deformed toward said avoidance recess;

one surface of said elastic plate, which faces outward, has press-fit teeth protruding outward;

after said cartridge is press-fitted into said installation hole, said press-fit teeth press against a wall of said installation hole, which faces said press-fit teeth.

8. The standard lamp according to claim 2, wherein a lamp shade is disposed around a region of said standard, which is corresponding to said lamp seat, and wherein said lamp shade encloses said lamp seat thereinside.

9. The standard lamp according to claim 8, wherein said lamp shade includes a plurality of enclosing boards each connected with neighboring ones of said studs, and wherein said enclosing boards form a space with said lamp seat thereinside.

10. The standard lamp according to claim 9, wherein ribs are formed on an external surface of said enclosing board.
