DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(5) The present invention will be further described below in detail by embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(6) It should be noted that in the description and claims of the present invention, the terms used to indicate direction, such as front, back, up, down, left, right, side, top, bottom, etc. are used to describe structures and elements of the present invention for better explanation. And these terms used here are based on an orientation in the accompanying drawings. Since the embodiments disclosed by the present invention can be set in different directions, these terms indicating directions are only used as explanations and should not be used as restrictions. For example, the verbs up, down should not be limited to the direction opposite or consistent with the gravity.

(7) FIGS. 1-4 show a preferred embodiment of the panel lamp of the present invention. The panel lamp comprises a lamp housing 1, a light emitting assembly 2 disposed inside the lamp housing 1 and a lampshade 3 disposed under the lamp housing 1.

(8) The lamp housing 1 is a metal housing, has a rectangular roof 11 and a circle of peripheral wall 12 extending downward from an edge of the roof 11. The lamp housing 1 has a circle of first connecting plate 121 extending outward from an edge of the peripheral wall 12, and a circle of second connecting plate 122 extending upward from an edge of the first connecting plate 121, and the fourth connecting plate 32 extends inward from an edge of the third connecting plate 31.

(9) The lampshade 3 is a plastic plate and is roughly rectangular with four side edges and a top surface 3a. The lampshade 3 has four third connecting plates 31 extending upward from each side edge of the lampshade 3, and four fourth connecting plates 32 bending and extending inward from an edge of each third connecting plate 31, so that an accommodating space S with a U-shaped section is defined between each fourth connecting plate 32 and the top surface 3a of the lampshade 3. The circle of second connecting plate 122 of the lamp housing 1 are positioned and located within the corresponding accommodating space S between the fourth connecting plates 32 and the top surface 3a of the lampshade 3. Specifically, the second connecting plate 122 has a top edge 122a resisting against a bottom of the corresponding fourth connecting plate 32, and a bottom edge 122b resisting against the top surface 3a of the lampshade 3, accordingly the circle of second connecting plate 122 is reliably positioned within the corresponding accommodating space S and will not be loosened arbitrarily. The fourth connecting plate 32 is formed from the third connecting plate 31 by thermal deformation, and the third connecting plate 31 may be integrally stamped with the lampshade 3 or be formed from the lampshade 3 by thermal deformation.

(10) On the lampshade 3, two adjacent third connecting plates 31 are separated to form a first gap 31a between the ends of two adjacent third connecting plates 31, and two adjacent fourth connecting plates 32 are separated to form a second gap 32a between the ends of two adjacent fourth connecting plates 32. In this embodiment, both the third connecting plates 31 and the fourth connecting plates 32 are formed by thermal deformation. The lampshade plastic plate at corners of adjacent edges of the lampshade is removed before thermal deformation. For example, a square lampshade plastic plate is removed at each corner. At the end of thermal deformation, two adjacent third connecting plates 31 are separated to form a first gap 31a between the ends of two adjacent third connecting plates 31. With regard to the fourth connecting plates 32, the plastic plate of the lampshade 3 is also removed in a similar way before thermal deformation, so that two adjacent fourth connecting plates 32 are separated to form a second gap 32a between the ends of two adjacent fourth connecting plates 32.

(11) In addition, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, four hooks 4 are disposed on two opposite sidewalls in the circle of peripheral wall 12. In this embodiment, each hook 4 is L-shaped, and the end of each hook 4 is connected to a sidewall of the peripheral wall 12. And, a wiring box 5 is disposed on the sidewall of the peripheral wall 12, and the sidewalls on which the hooks 4 are located are adjacent to the sidewall on which the wiring box 5 is located.
