    [0021] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the first embodiment of the application provides a direct-type panel light. The direct-type panel light is mounted on the ceiling. After lighting, the light is irradiated to the floor and the side light is minimized. Specifically, the direct-type panel light includes a light-transmitting component 10, a frame 20, a bottom cover 30, and at least one strip-shaped LED light bar 40. The light-transmitting component 10 is connected to the frame 20, and the light emitted by the strip-shaped LED light bar 40 is irradiated to the light-transmitting component 10 for optical adjustment and subsequent illumination. The bottom cover 30 includes a bottom plate 31 and a curled edge 32 which is connected to the frame 20 in a close-coupled arrangement. The ridge at the connection between the bottom plate 31 and the curled edge 32 form an edge skeleton, which can improve the overall strength of the bottom cover 30. The bottom plate 31 is arranged oppositely to the light-transmitting component 10, wherein the bottom plate 31 is provided with cross-arranged stamping ribs 311, the stamping ribs 311 protrude in a direction away from the light-transmitting component 10 to form rib grooves, and the stamping depth of the rib groove is H, 0.1 mm≤H≤1.5 mm. The light-transmitting component 10, the frame 20 and the bottom cover 30 form an assembly space, and the strip-shaped LED light bar 40 is located in the assembling space, and the strip-shaped LED light bar 40 is installed in the rib groove formed by the corresponding stamping rib 311.

    [0022] In the direct-type panel light of this embodiment, the cross-arranged stamping ribs 311 are formed by stamping the bottom plate 31 of the bottom cover 30, and the depth of the rib grooves of these stamping ribs 311 is designed to be 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm, more preferably 0.8 mm to 1.3 mm, thereby enhancing the overall rigidity of the bottom cover 30 and meeting the user's needs for strength and rigidity. In addition, the ridge formed at the connection between the bottom plate 31 and the curled edge 32 form an edge frame which can improve the overall strength of the bottom cover 30.

    [0023] In this embodiment, the stamping ribs 311 are arranged in a crisscross way (i.e., the stamping ribs 311 extending in the longitudinal direction are perpendicular to the stamping ribs 311 extending in the transverse direction, and at least one stamping rib 311 extends in the longitudinal direction, and at least one stamping rib 311 extends in the transverse direction). There are a plurality of strip-shaped LED light bars 40, and each strip-shaped LED light bar 40 is arranged in parallel, and installed in the rib grooves one by one, that is, all the strip-shaped LED light bars 40 are installed in the rib grooves formed by the longitudinally extending stamping ribs 311 one by one, or all the strip-shaped LED light bars 40 are installed in the rib grooves formed by the laterally extending stamping ribs 311 one by one.

    [0024] As shown in FIG. 2, each strip-shaped LED light bar 40 includes a lamp plate 41 and a plurality of LED lamp beads 42 arranged on the lamp plate 41 (the plurality of LED lamp beads 42 may be connected in series or mutually connected or connected in parallel), the lamp plate 41 is attached to the bottom of the rib groove, so that the light emitted by the LED lamp bead 42 will not be blocked. Therefore, the height of the top of the LED lamp bead 42 protruding from the rib groove is greater than or equal to 0.1 mm. Further, the height of the top of the LED lamp bead 42 protruding from the rib groove is less than or equal to 0.3 mm.

    [0025] In the direct-type panel light of the first embodiment, the end of the lamp plate 41 is provided with a connector (not shown) electrically connected to the LED lamp beads 42, wherein: when a plurality of LED lamp beads 42 on each lamp plate 41 are connected in series, any one of the LED lamp beads 42 can be electrically connected to the connector; when the plurality of LED lamp beads 42 on each lamp plate 41 are connected in parallel with each other, all the LED lamp beads 42 need to be electrically connected to the connector. The connecting wire is drawn from the connector, and the connecting wire is electrically connected to the driver, and the driver supplies power to the LED lamp beads 42 to light up the panel light. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, one side of the curled edge 32 is provided with an adapter plate 321, and all connectors are electrically connected to the adapter plate 321. The direct-type panel light also includes a driver, and the connecting wire of the adapter plate is electrically connected to the driver after passing through the curled edge 32.

    [0026] In addition, as shown in the bottom cover 30 shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the two ends of the crisscrossed stamping ribs 311 respectively extend to the curled edge 32, so that the connecting wire drawn from the connector can be more directly drawn to the connecting plate 321 for electrical connection, thereby eliminating the defect that the shadow is formed because of the light-shielding of the connecting after wiring.

    [0027] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the direct-type panel light also includes a mounting bracket 50, which is connected to the side of the bottom plate 31 away from the light-transmitting component 10, and the direct-type panel light is connected and fixed on the ceiling by the mounting bracket 50 for lighting, so it is very convenient, fast and stable for the installation.

    [0028] According to the second embodiment of the application, as shown in FIG. 5, another direct-type panel light is provided. Compared with the first embodiment, the direct-type panel light of the second embodiment has the following differences. In the second embodiment, the direct-type panel light includes at least one ring-shaped LED light bar (not shown), and the bottom plate 31 is provided with a plurality of ring-shaped stamping ribs 311 which are concentric circles with unequal diameters, and the ring-shaped LED light bar is installed in the rib groove formed by the corresponding stamping rib 311. In the second embodiment, stamping ribs 311 are also used to fix the bottom plate 31 to enhance the rigidity of the bottom cover 30, and an edge skeleton is formed between the bottom plate 31 and the curled edge 32 to further improve the overall strength of the bottom cover 30.

    [0029] The LED lamp beads 42 on each ring-shaped LED light bar are connected in series (or in parallel), and a connecting wire is drawn as a connector from each ring-shaped LED light bar, which is electrically connected to the LED lamp bead 42 (connected in series or in parallel), and then the connecting wire (i.e., the connector) of each ring-shaped LED light bar bypasses all the LED lamp beads 42 and is arranged to be electrically connected to the driver.

    [0030] Compared with the first embodiment, the second embodiment has the same structure except for the above structure.

    [0031] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the application shall be included in the protection scope of this application.
