The specification and drawings present a new lighting/housing fixture comprising a plate/housing plate having multiple snapping clips for holding/assembling LED boards/modules in luminaires/LED light fixtures. The assembly can be made without any fasteners (such as rivets, screws, embossed fasteners, etc.), adhesives or any additional materials. This may be achieved by forming a housing plate comprising a plurality of snapping clips, made from one plate using, e.g., a sheet metal. The snapping clips are able to hold the LED boards in place, using snapped claws, as tight as conventional methods (e.g., using fasteners, rivets, etc.). In addition, the described housing fixture can simplify the assembling procedure, and reduce cost, manpower and maintenance compared to the conventional methods.
