ABSTRACT:
A hanging lamp can be folded in a compact size so as to ease packaging and shipment. The hanging lamp includes a foldable lampshade and a switch housing having a plurality of bendable lamp tube attached thereto. A plurality of ribs of the lampshade extend downwardly and outwardly from a top centerpiece forming a dome-shaped frame structure. Each rib includes an upper rib segment and a lower rib segment connected with each other by a pivot pin. A spring is disposed around the pivot pin and biases the lower rib segment away from the upper rib segment in a transverse direction so as to ease folding up the lower rib segment against the upper rib segment. The bendable lamp tube can also be bent inwardly so that the hanging lamp occupies little space in shipment.
