BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present utility model relates to the technical field of shelves, in particular to a shelf with lighting effect.

The shelves are widely used in shopping malls, supermarkets, warehouses, warehouses, offices and homes. In recent years, the assembled shelves have become increasingly popular along with the continuous development of standardized production technologies and the continuous increase in transportation costs. The assembled shelves are in an unassembled state after production and during transportation; in this case, the space occupied by the assembled shelves is relatively small, and such shelves after be packaged generally take on standard cubes, particularly useful for significantly reducing the transportation costs of the assembled shelves. However, the existing assembled shelves still have many defects. To be specific, for example, some shelves used in families are mostly used to hold objects for exhibition decoration; however, at night, the light is insufficient, the shelves themselves are not equipped with light sources for lighting the objects; therefore, it is possible for people to collide with the shelves when walking and make the shelves and the objects placed on the shelves fall to the ground and thus cause breakage or damage to the shelves and/or objects and finally cause losses. In addition, the shelves are not equipped with light sources for lighting, and thus the decoration effect is poor.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The main purpose of the present utility model is to provide a shelf with lighting effect, which aims to increase the lighting effect for the shelf, and avoid the losses of objects caused by collision with the shelf when the light is insufficient as well as avoid the poor decorative effect of the shelf.

In order to realize the above purpose, the present utility model provides a shelf with lighting effect comprising a plurality of upright columns and a plurality of mounting frames with support plates, wherein the said mounting frames are vertically spaced and connected respectively among the said upright columns, on the side of the said mounting frames is arranged with at least one lamp groove, and in the lamp grooves are arranged with LED light strips electrically connected with the power supply subassembly.

A technical solution of the present utility model vertically spaces a plurality of mounting frames, connects them respectively among a plurality of upright columns; the said mounting frames are installed with support plates to form a vertical shelf with a plurality of compartments, each of which can be used to hold objects; on the side of the mounting frames is arranged with at least one lamp groove, and in the lamp groove is arranged with an LED light strip electrically connected with the power supply subassembly to provide lighting effect for the objects placed on the support plates; certainly, users also can choose not to place objects on the shelf but use the shelf as a lamp decoration. Compared with conventional shelves, the shelf in the present utility model is arranged with an LED light strip to provide lighting effect for the objects placed on the support plates and thus effectively prevent people from colliding with the shelf due to insufficient light when walking at night; meanwhile, the LED light strip can improve the decorative effect of the shelf; the overall structure of the shelf is simple and thus the installation and removal of the shelf is very convenient.
