[0029] In actual settings, through the combination of the module bracket 1, the light module 2 and the connecting flexible board 3, the space inside the car lamp can be effectively utilized. The light modules 2 are distributed in an orderly manner on the module bracket 1, and the connecting flexible board 3 connects adjacent light modules 2, so that the entire lighting system is compactly and orderly arranged in a limited space.

[0030] In addition, the lighting modules 2 are evenly distributed on the module bracket 1 and arranged along the length direction. This design enhances the flexibility and scalability of the system. The lighting modules 2 can be increased or decreased as needed without causing too much impact on the overall layout. The connecting flexible board 3 is arranged between adjacent lighting modules 2 to connect them, which simplifies the connection process and makes the connection between the lighting modules 2 more convenient and efficient.

[0031] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the installation of the lamp tube module, a plurality of installation platforms are provided on the module bracket 1; and a plurality of lighting modules 2 are respectively assembled on the installation platforms by bolts.

[0032] In actual settings, the setting of the mounting platform allows the lighting module 2 to be easily assembled to the module bracket 1 by bolts, which simplifies the installation process, reduces the workload of installers, and improves installation efficiency. Through bolt assembly, the lighting module 2 can be firmly fixed on the mounting platform, ensuring that the lighting module 2 will not loosen or fall off due to vibration or other external factors during driving, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the system.

[0033] It should be noted that the light module 2 is electrically connected to the lamp beads 201 , and two adjacent lamp beads 201 are electrically connected.

[0034] Furthermore, in order to position the lighting module 2 and facilitate installation, in this embodiment, a plurality of positioning bolts 101 are provided on the module bracket 1, and two adjacent positioning bolts 101 are staggered front and back, and a certain gap is retained between two adjacent lighting modules 2.

[0037] In actual settings, the setting of the control panel 4 allows the user to easily control the lighting module 2 without the need for additional control devices or steps. The user can operate through the control panel 4 to achieve fast and convenient control of the lighting module 2. In addition, the extended flexible board 202 connects the control panel 4 and the lighting module 2, avoiding the cumbersome wiring process. Compared with traditional wiring methods, the use of flexible board connection can reduce the use of cables, making the entire system wiring simpler and reducing potential failure points.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, one of the connecting flexible boards 3 is electrically connected between two adjacent light modules 2 and is close to the rear side; and / or one of the connecting flexible boards 3 is electrically connected between two adjacent light modules 2 and is located in the middle of the two light modules 2; and / or one of the connecting flexible boards 3 is electrically connected between two adjacent light modules 2 and is close to the front side.

That is, the position of the connecting flexible board 3 can be flexibly arranged according to specific needs and design requirements. Whether it is close to the rear part, the middle part or the front part, it can be adjusted according to the layout of the lighting module 2 and the design of the car light, so that the layout of the entire system is more flexible and customizable.

[0040] In addition, according to the different installation positions of the connecting flexible board 3, the wiring can be optimized to make the connection more concise and effective. Installing the connecting flexible board 3 at different positions can avoid excessively long lines, reduce line loss and interference, and improve the stability and reliability of the system.
