  • Patent number: 6685346
    Abstract: A do-it-yourself lamp rod is formed by a retaining seat and an inserting rod inserting into the retaining seat. The retaining seat is locked to the inner side of a wire connecting box, and a rectangular inserted hole of the retaining seat has a positioning block therein. Thereby, an inserted hole and the positioning block can be engaged. A limiting ring is locked to the inserting portion of the retaining seat. As the limiting ring is released, then the inserting rod can be pulled out. The wire connecting box and inserting rod can be detached so as to reduce the volume for storing, transferring and packaging. Thereby, the user need only insert the inserting rod into the wire connecting box and then lock the limiting ring and thus the assembly of the present invention is completed. Therefore, the present invention can be assembled by users.
