Abstract
A lighting bar assembly includes at least two lighting bar and at least one connector. Each lighting bar of the at least two lighting bars includes an enclosure, a circuit board, at least one power supply device, four male terminals, and two end caps. The enclosure is coupled to the circuit board. The circuit board includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes. The enclosure forms an interior space receiving the at least one power supply device. Each male terminal, the at least one power supply device and the circuit board are in electrical connection with one another. Opposite ends of the enclosure are respectively closed by the two end caps with the two end caps being in tight engagement with the enclosure. Each end cap forms a connection window in which the at least one connector is fit into the connection windows of the end caps. As such, advantages of easy manufacturing, enhanced lighting, small size, and easy replacement can be obtained.
