DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] Drawings and detailed embodiments are combined hereinafter to elaborate the technical principles of the present invention.

[0020] A return-type wiring structure having multiple devices and units capable of being flexibly increased and decreased comprises a plurality of light-emitting devices or illuminating devices 10, a power plug or an input terminal 20, a power socket or an output terminal 30, a positive electrode connecting wire 41 and a negative electrode connecting wire 42.

Embodiment 1

[0021] As shown in FIG. 1, the return-type wiring structure having multiple devices and units capable of being flexibly increased and decreased of the present invention comprises a plurality of light-emitting devices or illuminating devices 10, a power plug or an input terminal 20, and a power socket or an output terminal 30. The aforesaid light-emitting devices or illuminating devices 10 can be any known light-emitting devices or illuminating devices (e.g., illuminating bulbs, LED lamps, LED decorative lamps for Christmas trees or lamp beads). In this embodiment, LED lamp beads used for Christmas trees are taken as examples of the light-emitting devices or illuminating devices. Similarly, the power plug or input terminal 20 can be any known power plug or input terminal, and the power socket or output terminal 30 can be any known power socket or output terminal. In this embodiment, the power plug and the power socket are taken as examples.

[0022] As shown in FIG. 1, the aforesaid plurality of light-emitting devices or illuminating devices 10 are divided into a plurality of collection units 100 numbered from 101-10N. Each collection unit 100 comprises at least two light-emitting devices or illuminating devices 10. In this embodiment, the plurality of LED lamp beads 10 are divided into two collection units 101 and 102. Each collection unit 100 comprises 10 LED lamp beads 10. Certainly, the number of the LED lamp beads can be freely increased or decreased according to actual requirement, which is not restricted herein. As shown in FIG. 1, in the two collection units 101 and 102 of this embodiment, the 10 LED lamp beads 10 of each collection unit are connected in parallel. Specifically, in the collection units 101 and 102, the positive electrodes of the 10 LED lamp beads 10 of each collection unit are sequentially connected in parallel, and the negative electrodes of the 10 LED lamp beads 10 of each collection unit are sequentially connected in parallel. The positive electrode of the first LED lamp bead 1011 in the first collection unit 101 is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the power plug 20, and the negative electrode of the last LED lamp bead 1022 of the last collection unit 102 are electrically connected to the negative electrode connecting wire 42. In this embodiment, the operating voltage of each LED lamp bead 10 in the two collection units 101 and 102 is 3V. The operating voltage of each of the two collection units 101 and 102 is the same as that of the LED lamp bead 10, meaning that the operating voltage of each of the two collection units is 3V respectively. The total operating voltage of the total collection unit 200 is 2*3V=6V. Namely, the total operating voltage of the total collection unit 200 is 6V.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 1, in the total collection unit 200, the two collection units 101 and 102 are connected in series. Specifically, the negative electrode of the last LED lamp bead 1012 of the collection unit 101 is connected to the positive electrode of the first LED lamp bead 1021 of the collection unit 102 in series. Moreover, the last LED lamp bead 1022 of the collection unit 102 is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the power socket 30. Thus, the two collection units 101 and 102 are connected in series, thereby forming the total collection unit 200.

[0024] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, in the aforesaid collection units 101 and 102, the number of the LED lamp beads 10 can be flexibly increased or decreased according to the actual need. When the number of the LED lamp beads 10 is increased from 10 to 11, the operating voltages of the two collection units 101 and 102 are the same as that of each LED lamp bead 10. Namely, the operating voltage of each of the two collection units 101 and 102 is 3V. Further, when the number of the LED lamp beads 10 is decreased from 10 to 9, the operating voltage of each of the two collection units 101 and 102 is still 3V. According to the aforesaid wiring structure, the voltage variation of a certain collection unit can be avoided regardless of the increase or decrease of the LED lamp beads 10 in the collection unit. It means that even if one or more LED lamp beads 10 in a certain collection unit fail, the voltage and the load can be prevented from being affected. Thus, the wiring structure of the present invention is capable of ensuring the operating stability of the whole system.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 1 or 2, assuming that the number of the collection units 100 is increased from 10 to 11, the total operating voltage of the total collection unit 200 is 11*3V=33V. Likewise, assuming that the number of the collection units 100 is decreased from 10 to 9, the total operating voltage of the total collection unit 200 is 9*3V=27V. Namely, when the number of the collection units is increased or decreased, the total operating voltage of the total collection unit 200 can be increased or decreased by times. Therefore, according to the design voltage, the design requirement and the actual need can be satisfied by flexibly increasing or decreasing the number of the collection units.

Embodiment 2

[0026] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the basic structure of embodiment 2 is the same as that of embodiment 1. The difference between embodiments 1 and 2 is that the LED lamp beads 10 in the total collection unit 200 are divided into 5 collection units numbered from 101-105. Each collection unit 100 comprises 4 LED lamp beads 10. As shown in FIG. 2, in the five collection units 101-105 of this embodiment, the 4 LED lamp beads 10 of each collection unit are connected in parallel, More specifically, in the collection units 101-105, the positive electrode of one LED lamp bead 10 is connected to the negative electrode of another LED lamp bead 10 in parallel, and the negative electrode of one LED lamp bead 10 is connected to the positive electrode of another LED lamp bead 10 in parallel. Moreover, the positive electrode of the first LED lamp bead 1011 in the first collection unit 101 is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the power plug 20, and the negative electrode of the last LED lamp bead 1052 in the last collection unit 105 is electrically connected to the negative electrode connecting wire 42. In this embodiment, the five collection units 101-105 are connected in series, thereby forming the total collection unit 200. The first collection unit 101 of the total collection unit 200 is electrically connected to the power plug 20, and the last collection unit 10N is electrically connected to the negative electrode connecting wire 42.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 2, every two collection units 100 are connected in series. Specifically, the positive electrode of the last LED lamp bead 1012 of the first collection unit 101 is connected to the positive electrode of the first LED lamp bead 1021 of the second collection unit 102 in series. The negative electrode of the last LED lamp bead 1022 of the second collection unit 102 is connected to the negative electrode of the first LED lamp bead 1031 of the third collection unit 103 in series. The positive electrode of the last LED lamp bead 1032 of the third collection unit 103 is connected to the positive electrode of the first LED lamp bead 1041 of the fourth collection unit 104 in series. The negative electrode of the last LED lamp bead 1042 of the fourth collection unit 104 is connected to the negative electrode of the first LED lamp bead 1051 of the fifth collection unit 105 in series. Through alternately series-connecting the positive electrode of the last light-emitting device or illuminating device of one collection unit with the positive electrode of the first light-emitting device or illuminating device of the other collection unit, and alternately series-connecting the negative electrode of the last light-emitting device or illuminating device in one collection unit with the negative electrode of the first light-emitting device or illuminating device in the other collection unit, the five collection units can be connected in series to form the total collection unit 200.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the operating voltage of each LED lamp bead 10 in the five collection units 101-105 is 3V. The operating voltage of each of the five collection units 101 to 105 is the same as that of the LED lamp bead 10, meaning that the operating voltage of each of the five collection units is 3V. The total operating voltage of the total collection unit 200 is 5*3V=15V. The operating principle of embodiment 2 is the same as that of embodiment 1.

[0029] According to the present invention, a plurality of light-emitting devices or illuminating devices 10 that are used in combination are divided into a plurality of collection units 100. The plurality of light-emitting devices or illuminating devices 10 in the plurality of collection units 100 are connected in parallel, and the plurality of collection units are connection in series, thereby forming the total collection unit 200. The wiring structure of the present invention allows the number of the light-emitting devices or illuminating devices to be freely increased or decreased. Furthermore, when one or more devices in the wiring structure fail, the voltage and load of the system can be protected from being affected. Thus, even if one or more devices in the wiring structure having multiple devices (e.g. Christmas decorative lamps) fail, the whole system can normally operate, achieving a stable and smooth operation.
