  "claims": [
    "1. A light apparatus for being installed in an accommodating space of a wall comprising: a light source, wherein the light source generates light for lighting when the light source is energized; a main shell, wherein the main shell has an exposed portion and an embedded portion, at least a portion of the exposed portion is located out of the wall, and the embedded portion is located in the accommodating space; a cup body, wherein the cup body has a bottom part and a side surrounded part, a peripheral area of the bottom part being connected to an end opening of the side surrounding part, the side surrounded part is connected to the embedded portion of the main shell, and the light source is located on the bottom part; a driving circuit box for placing a driving circuit, wherein the driving circuit generates current of the light source after power supply; and at least one connecting structure, wherein the at least one connecting structure sequentially fixes the cup body, the main shell and the driving circuit together, wherein the connection structure comprises a hollow cylinder and a screw on the driving circuit box, wherein the hollow cylinder is set with threads corresponding to the screws, wherein the screws penetrates from a hole in the bottom part into the hollow cylinder of the driving circuit box through the hole of the embedded portion of the main shell, and sequentially fixes the cup body, the main shell and the driving circuit box.",
    "2. The light apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a third alignment structure, wherein the driving circuit box has the third alignment structure for aligning the main shell with the driving circuit box to maintain the predetermined angle.",
    "3. The light apparatus of claim 1, wherein the lighting source circuit comprises a substrate, the substrate is set with a corresponding hole of the screw, the screw passes through the hole of the screw corresponding to the substrate into the hole of the bottom part of the cup body, and passes through the hole of the embedded portion of the main shell into the hollow cylinder of the driving circuit box to sequentially fix the substrate, the cup body, the main shell and the driving circuit box.",
    "4. The light apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a first alignment structure and a second alignment structure, wherein the driving circuit box and a bottom of the embedded portion of the main shell are set with the corresponding first alignment structure, wherein the embedded portion of the main shell and the cup body are set with the corresponding second alignment structure, through the first alignment structure and the second alignment structure make sure the driving circuit box and the main shell are fixed at a predetermined angle when assembled with the driving circuit box.",
    "5. The light apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bottom of the embedded portion of the main shell is set with a hole.",
    "6. The light apparatus of claim 1, further comprising two extension arms and two fixed springs, wherein the driving circuit box is set with the two extension arms for mounting the two fixed springs, and the two fixed springs are used for fixing the light apparatus to the accommodating space of the wall.",
    "7. The light apparatus of claim 6, wherein the extension arms are set with adjustable structures for adjusting width of the two fixed springs to accommodate the different accommodating spaces.",
    "8. The light apparatus of claim 1, wherein the light source comprises a substrate, a plurality of LED (Light Emitting Diodes) cores, and a connection terminal, wherein the driving circuit has two electrodes to be connected to the connection terminal through the bottom of the cup body.",
    "9. The light apparatus of claim 8, wherein the plurality of LED (Light Emitting Diodes) cores are disposed on the substrate in a geometrical shape being similar to the bottom of the cup body.",
    "10. The light apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a light diffusion board, wherein the exposed portion of the main shell is defined as an exposed hole, wherein the light diffusion board covers the exposed hole and is fixedly connected to the main shell, and the light diffusion board is connected to an upper edge of the cup body to make the cup body keep fixed by fixing the light diffusion board and the embedded portion of the main shell.",
    "11. The light apparatus of claim 10, wherein the light diffusion board is fixed with the main shell through glue.",
    "12. The light apparatus of claim 10, wherein a circumference of the upper edge of the cup body is longer than the bottom of the cup body.",
    "13. The light apparatus of claim 1, wherein the side surrounded part of the cup body is a curve, and a curvature of the curve near the bottom part of the cup body is lower than the curve near an upper edge of the cup body.",
    "14. The light apparatus of claim 1, wherein material of the cup body is harder than the main shell.",
    "15. The light apparatus of claim 1, wherein the material of the cup body comprises metal.",
    "16. The light apparatus of claim 1, wherein a surface of the cup body is coated with a white coating to enhance a reflective effect.",
    "17. The light apparatus of claim 1, further comprising an external connection terminal, wherein one side of the external connection terminal is connected to the driving circuit, and the other side of the external connection terminal is connected to external power source.",
    "18. The light apparatus of claim 17, wherein the external connection terminal has a structure of a lamp head for directly entering to a bulb holder to realize an electrical connecting.",
    "19. The light apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a light diffusion cover, wherein a side of the main shell is set with one or more step sections for positioning the cup body and the light diffusion cover."
