DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] In order to make the above objectives, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, a large number of specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the scope of the present application, so the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0039] In one embodiment, a vehicle is provided, comprising a vehicle body and a vehicle window 10, which is installed on the vehicle body in a clamping or screwing manner.

[0040] The vehicle body can be any existing vehicle body structure that needs to be installed with the vehicle window 10.

[0041] ​​The vehicle window 10 can display a small pattern such as a LOGO. The vehicle window 10 can be a sunroof.

[0042] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 , the vehicle window 10 includes a vehicle window glass 200 and an ambient light assembly 100. The vehicle window glass 200 is provided with a mounting hole 210. The ambient light assembly 100 is assembled and connected with the vehicle window glass 200, so that the light emitted by the ambient light assembly 100 can be incident into the vehicle window glass 200 from the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, thereby illuminating the small pattern such as a LOGO to achieve good display effect.

[0043] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in one embodiment, the ambient light assembly 100 includes a housing 110, a mounting member 120, and a light emitting element 130.

[0044] The housing 110 can be made by injection molding, which can provide necessary shielding or protection for the entire ambient light assembly 100. As shown in Figure 6 , the housing 110 is provided with a mounting cavity 111 and a first limiting portion 112. The first limiting portion 112 extends from the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111 towards the axial direction of the mounting cavity 111 (as shown in the A direction of Figure 4 ), that is, one end of the first limiting portion 112 is connected with the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111, and the other end extends towards the vehicle window glass 200.

[0045] The first limiting portion 112 can be integrally formed with the entire housing 110, or can be separately formed and assembled by screwing or other means.

[0046] The mounting member 120 can be a plate-shaped structure such as a PCB (Printed Circuit Board). The mounting member 120 is installed in the mounting cavity 111, and one side of the mounting member 120 can be limited with the first limiting portion 112, so that the mounting member 120 is installed at a proper installation height in the mounting cavity 111.

[0047] It can be understood that the installation height of the mounting member 120 in the mounting cavity 111 can refer to the height of the mounting member 120 relative to the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111, that is, the distance between the mounting member 120 and the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111.

[0048] The first limiting part 112 and the mounting part 120 are limitedly matched by mutual interference. For example, the first limiting part 112 can be in the form of a limiting boss 160, a limiting seat or a limiting pin. When the mounting part 120 is mounted in the mounting cavity 111, the limiting matching is achieved by interference with the top of the first limiting part 112, so that the mounting part 120 is mounted at a proper mounting height in the mounting cavity 111.

[0049] The light-emitting element 130 can be a LED (light-emitting diode) lamp bead or the like capable of emitting illuminating light. The light-emitting element 130 is arranged on the mounting part 120 in a manner of bonding, clamping or the like, and the light-emitting element 130 is arranged away from the first limiting part 112, that is, the first limiting part 112 is located on one side of the mounting part 120, and the light-emitting element 130 is located on the other side of the mounting part 120.

[0050] Meanwhile, when the shell 110 is assembled on the vehicle window glass 200, the first limiting part 112 and the mounting part 120 are limitedly matched, so that the light-emitting element 130 can be aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, that is, the projection of the light-emitting element 130 in the horizontal direction falls on the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting element 130 can be totally incident into the vehicle window glass 200, and then a small pattern such as a LOGO is lighted to achieve a good display effect.

[0051] Specifically, when the mounting part 120 is mounted in the mounting cavity 111 of the shell 110, the light-emitting element 130 is arranged towards the outside of the mounting cavity 111, and the first limiting part 112 and the side of the mounting part 120 away from the light-emitting element 130 are limitedly interfered with each other, so that the mounting part 120 is mounted at a proper mounting height in the mounting cavity 111. When the whole composed of the shell 110 and the mounting part 120 is assembled on the vehicle window glass 200, the light-emitting element 130 is directed towards the mounting hole 210. When the shell 110 and the vehicle window glass 200 are fixedly connected, the first limiting part 112 and the mounting part 120 are limitedly matched, so that the light-emitting element 130 is aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, and then the light emitted by the light-emitting element 130 can be totally incident into the vehicle window glass 200 from the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, and then a small pattern such as a LOGO on the vehicle window glass 200 is lighted to achieve a good display effect.

[0052] Optionally, the first limiting part 112 can be provided in a telescopic structure, which can be telescoped along the axial direction of the installation cavity 111 according to actual installation needs, so as to flexibly adjust the installation height of the installation piece 120 in the installation cavity 111 according to actual installation needs, ensure that the light emitting element 130 is aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the installation hole 210, and adapt to different installation needs, which is more versatile. Specifically, the first limiting part 112 can adopt the form of a large pipe and a small pipe being sleeved with each other to realize telescoping and locking, or adopt the form of two components being slidably matched to realize telescoping and locking.

[0053] In addition, the number of the first limiting part 112 can be flexibly adjusted or designed according to actual use needs, for example, one, two or more, which can well support and limit the installation piece 120.

[0054] The shell 110 is assembled to the vehicle window glass 200, which can be achieved by screwing, bonding or inserting, etc.

[0055] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 7 In one embodiment, the outer side wall of the shell 110 is provided with an installation flange 114, and the atmosphere lamp assembly 100 is also provided with a bonding layer 115, which is bonded to the installation flange 114. Thus, after the installation piece 120 and the light emitting element 130 are installed in the installation cavity 111, the shell 110 is installed on the vehicle window glass 200 through the bonding of the bonding layer 115 on the installation flange 114 and the vehicle window glass 200, and the light emitting element 130 is aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the installation hole 210 through the limiting cooperation of the first limiting part 112 and the installation piece 120. Moreover, the connection and fixation with the glass by bonding can also simplify the assembly process, improve the assembly efficiency, and facilitate subsequent disassembly.

[0056] The bonding layer 115 can be an adhesive component such as double-sided tape or 3M tape.

[0057] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the vehicle window glass 200 comprises an inner layer glass 220 and an outer layer glass 230 which are connected to each other in a pasting manner, specifically, the inner layer glass 220 refers to the glass which is towards the inside of the vehicle, and the outer layer glass 230 refers to the glass which is towards the outside of the vehicle. The inner layer glass 220 is provided with the mounting hole 210. And the vehicle window glass 200 is provided with a display pattern towards the side of the light emitting element 130. In this way, the shell 110 is assembled on the inner layer glass 220, and the light emitting element 130 is aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210 of the inner layer glass 220 through the limiting cooperation of the first limiting portion 112 and the mounting member 120, so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 130 can be totally incident into the inner layer glass 220, and then the display pattern is lighted to achieve a good display effect.

[0058] The inner layer glass 220 and the outer layer glass 230 can be connected in a pasting manner, or can be connected through resin filling and then compression bonding, for example, a PVB film or an EVA film can be arranged between the inner layer glass 220 and the outer layer glass 230.

[0059] The display pattern can be any pattern which needs to be displayed, such as a LOGO, etc. And the display pattern can be arranged on the inner surface of the inner layer glass 220 which is away from the outer layer glass 230, or can be arranged on the outer surface of the inner layer glass 220 which is towards the outer layer glass 230, or can be arranged between the inner surface and the outer surface of the inner layer glass 220, or can be arranged on the intermediate layer (PVB film or EVA film) between the inner layer glass 220 and the outer layer glass 230.

[0060] As shown, Figure 8 In addition, the atmosphere lamp assembly 100 further comprises a lead wire 300 for supplying power to the light emitting element 130, and a chip and other components for controlling the light emitting element 130 to emit light, which belong to the prior art and will not be described here.

[0061] As shown, Figure 6 At the same time, the side portion of the shell 110 is further provided with a lead wire notch 113 which is in communication with the mounting cavity 111. In this way, the lead wire 300 can extend into the mounting cavity 111 from the lead wire notch 113 to realize electrical connection with the light emitting element 130, avoiding interference or resistance.

[0062] The inner diameter of the lead wire notch 113 can match the outer diameter of the lead wire 300, avoiding the lead wire 300 from moving around.

[0063] As shown, Figure 3 and Figure 7As shown, further, the atmosphere lamp assembly 100 is also provided with a light blocking piece 190. Wherein the light blocking piece 190 is arranged outside the mounting cavity 111, and the light blocking piece 190 is arranged in the circumferential direction of the mounting cavity 111, so that the circumferential direction of the mounting cavity 111 is closed by the light blocking piece 190, avoiding light leakage. Specifically, the light blocking piece 190 is fixed to the side of the shell 110 facing the inner layer glass 220 by bonding or the like, and when the shell 110 is assembled with the inner layer glass 220, the light blocking piece 190 is in abutting engagement with the inner layer glass 220 of the vehicle window glass 200, which can effectively prevent light from leaking between the shell 110 and the inner layer glass 220. Moreover, the light blocking piece 190 is provided with an avoidance notch 191 communicating with the lead notch 113. In this way, the lead 300 can be prevented from interfering with the lead notch 113 and the avoidance notch 191, and the lead 300 can also be used to block the lead notch 113 and the avoidance notch 191 to prevent light from leaking therefrom.

[0064] Wherein the light blocking piece 190 can be in the form of a light blocking strip or a light blocking wall, and can be made of a flexible material to achieve flexible contact with the inner layer glass 220 and avoid damaging the inner layer glass 220.

[0065] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 In addition, in one embodiment, the mounting member 120 is also provided with a second limiting portion 140. Wherein the second limiting portion 140 is arranged away from the first limiting portion 112, that is, the second limiting portion 140 and the light emitting element 130 are arranged on the same side of the mounting member 120. And the second limiting portion 140 is configured to align the light emitting element 130 with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210 when the shell 110 is assembled on the vehicle window glass 200 by limiting cooperation of the second limiting portion 140 with the bottom wall of the mounting hole 210. In this way, when the shell 110 is fixedly connected with the vehicle window glass 200, the first limiting portion 112 and the second limiting portion 140 limit the two opposite sides of the mounting member 120 respectively, so that the light emitting element 130 can be more accurately aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, and the light emitted by the light emitting element 130 can be fully incident into the vehicle window glass 200 from the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, thereby illuminating the display pattern on the vehicle window glass 200, and achieving good display effect.

[0066] Specifically, when the mounting piece 120 is mounted in the mounting cavity 111 of the shell 110, the light emitting element 130 is arranged towards the outside of the mounting cavity 111, and the first limiting part 112 and the side of the mounting piece 120 away from the light emitting element 130 are limited and abutted with each other, so that the mounting piece 120 is mounted at a proper mounting height in the mounting cavity 111, and when the shell 110 is fixed on the inner layer glass 220, the light emitting element 130 is towards the mounting hole 210, and through the limiting cooperation of the first limiting part 112 and the side of the mounting piece 120 and the limiting cooperation of the second limiting part 140 and the bottom wall of the mounting hole 210, the mounting piece 120 is limited and abutted from two opposite sides, so that the light emitting element 130 is accurately aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, and then the light emitted by the light emitting element 130 can be fully incident into the inner layer glass 220 from the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, thereby lighting the display pattern on the inner layer glass 220, and good display effect can be achieved.

[0067] The second limiting part 140 can be in the form of a limiting protruding strip, a limiting rib or a limiting boss 160, etc. Moreover, the arrangement of the second limiting part 140 on the mounting piece 120 needs to meet the condition that it does not block or interfere with the light emitted by the light emitting element 130, so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 130 can be fully incident into the inner layer glass 220 from the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210. The second limiting part 140 can be integrally formed with the mounting piece 120, or can be separately formed and then assembled by bonding or clamping, etc.

[0068] In addition, in an embodiment, the shell 110 is further provided with a third limiting part (not labeled). The third limiting part extends from the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111 towards the axis of the mounting cavity 111, that is, one end of the third limiting part is connected with the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111, and the other end extends towards the vehicle window glass 200. Moreover, the third limiting part can be limited and cooperated with the side of the mounting piece 120 away from the first limiting part 112. In this way, the third limiting part can realize the assembly connection between the mounting piece 120 and the shell 110, and can limit the horizontal displacement of the mounting piece 120, and in combination with the limitation of the vertical displacement of the mounting piece 120 by the first limiting part 112 and the second limiting part 140, the mounting piece 120 cannot move relative to the shell 110, the assembly precision of the mounting piece 120 is ensured, and the light emitting element 130 can be accurately aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210.

[0069] The limiting cooperation between the third limiting part and the mounting piece 120 can be realized by clamping or by inserting, as long as it can limit the horizontal displacement of the mounting piece 120.

[0070] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 Optionally, the third limiting part comprises at least two limiting buckles 150 which are circumferentially arranged and spaced from each other and surround the mounting member 120, and each of the at least two limiting buckles 150 extends to the side of the mounting member 120 away from the first limiting part 112. In this way, the limiting buckles 150 are clamped to the mounting member 120, and the mounting member 120 is limited by the first limiting part 112 and the second limiting part 140, so that the mounting member 120 is stably and reliably mounted in the mounting cavity 111 and the assembly connection between the housing 110 and the mounting member 120 is achieved. At the same time, the circumferential direction of the mounting member 120 is limited by the limiting buckles 150, and the horizontal displacement of the mounting member 120 is limited, and the mounting member 120 cannot move relative to the housing 110, which ensures the assembly accuracy of the mounting member 120, so that the light emitting element 130 can be accurately aligned with the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210.

[0071] Further, the housing 110 is also provided with a horizontal limiting structure (not labeled). The horizontal limiting structure surrounds the circumferential direction of the mounting cavity 111 and protrudes from the mounting cavity 111, that is, the horizontal limiting structure protrudes out of the mounting cavity 111. And the horizontal limiting structure extends along the axial direction of the mounting cavity 111 to limit the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210, so as to limit the horizontal displacement of the housing 110, avoid the relative displacement of the housing 110 in the horizontal direction relative to the vehicle window glass 200, and ensure that the housing 110 can be stably and reliably assembled and connected with the vehicle window glass 200. At the same time, the horizontal limiting structure in combination with the adhesive layer 115 can realize the stable assembly connection between the housing 110 and the inner layer glass 220 of the vehicle window glass 200, and improve the assembly strength.

[0072] The limiting cooperation between the horizontal limiting structure and the circumferential side wall 211 of the mounting hole 210 can be realized by abutting or clamping, as long as it can limit the horizontal displacement of the housing 110.

[0073] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, optionally, the horizontal limiting structure includes at least two spaced-apart limiting protrusions 160. The at least two limiting protrusions 160 are arranged circumferentially around the mounting cavity 111, and each of the at least two limiting protrusions 160 protrudes from the mounting cavity 111 and extends to engage with the circumferential sidewall 211 of the mounting hole 210. Thus, when the housing 110 is assembled with the window glass 200, each limiting protrusion 160 extends into the mounting hole 210 and abuts against the circumferential sidewall 211 of the mounting hole 210 to achieve a limiting engagement, thereby restricting horizontal displacement of the housing 110 relative to the window glass 200, preventing horizontal displacement of the housing 110 relative to the window glass 200, and ensuring a stable and reliable assembly connection between the housing 110 and the window glass 200.

[0074] Preferably, the limiting bosses 160 are evenly arranged around the mounting cavity 111 in the circumference, so that the housing 110 is uniformly resisted in the horizontal direction and cannot be displaced relative to the window glass 200. For example, when there are three limiting bosses 160, the included angle between the three limiting bosses 160 is 120°, and when there are four limiting bosses 160, the included angle between the four limiting bosses 160 is 90°.

[0075] like Figure 6 As shown, further, one of the limiting bosses 160 and one of the limiting buckles 150 are integrally formed and cooperate to form a first assembly 171, thereby giving the first assembly 171 sufficient strength, which can not only improve the limiting strength and limiting accuracy of the limiting buckle 150 on the mounting member 120, but also improve the limiting strength and limiting accuracy of the limiting boss 160 on the outer shell 110; the other limiting boss 160 and the other limiting buckle 150 are adjacent and spaced apart and cooperate to form a second assembly 172, and the first assembly 171 and the second assembly 172 are respectively located on opposite sides of the mounting member 120. Thus, when the safety component is installed in the mounting cavity 111, the limiting buckle 150 on the second assembly 172 can deform away from the first assembly 171, making it easier to place the mounting component 120 between the first assembly 171 and the second assembly 172. After the mounting component 120 is engaged with the first limiting part 112, the limiting buckle 150 of the second assembly 172 is reset to engage with the mounting component 120, reducing the assembly difficulty.

[0076] like Figure 6As shown, further, one of the limiting bosses 160 is arranged opposite to the other limiting boss 160, in particular, one of the limiting bosses 160 is arranged on the opposite side of the mounting piece 120, for example, on the left and right sides of the mounting piece 120, so as to achieve rigid clamping and flexible clamping on the opposite sides of the mounting piece 120 respectively, thereby ensuring assembly strength and facilitating assembly.

[0077] As shown, optionally, the shell 110 and one of the mounting pieces 120 are provided with a positioning piece 180 extending along the axial direction of the mounting cavity 111, and the other mounting piece 120 is provided with a positioning hole 121 matched with the positioning piece 180. In this way, the positioning piece 180 and the positioning hole 121 are matched to position the mounting piece 120 in the mounting cavity 111, thereby improving the mounting accuracy of the mounting piece 120 in the mounting cavity 111. In addition, the matching of the positioning piece 180 and the positioning hole 121 can also ensure that the direction of the light-emitting element 130 is accurately directed to the required side, thereby preventing errors. Figure 5

[0078] In particular, the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111 is provided with the positioning piece 180 extending along the axial direction of the mounting cavity 111, and the mounting piece 120 is provided with the positioning hole 121. In addition, the number of positioning pieces 180 and the number of positioning holes 121 can be flexibly adjusted or designed, for example, both are two, three or more, so that each positioning piece 180 is matched with one positioning hole 121. At this time, the positioning piece 180 can be integrally formed with the first limiting portion 112, thereby improving the overall strength. Of course, the positioning piece 180 can be arranged separately from the first limiting portion 112.

[0079] In particular, the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 111 is provided with the positioning piece 180 extending along the axial direction of the mounting cavity 111, and the mounting piece 120 is provided with the positioning hole 121. In addition, the number of positioning pieces 180 and the number of positioning holes 121 can be flexibly adjusted or designed, for example, both are two, three or more, so that each positioning piece 180 is matched with one positioning hole 121. At this time, the positioning piece 180 can be integrally formed with the first limiting portion 112, thereby improving the overall strength. Of course, the positioning piece 180 can be arranged separately from the first limiting portion 112.

The first feature "under", "below" and "underneath" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is horizontally lower than the second feature.

[0086] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed", "set", "secured" or "attached" to another element, it can be directly on the other element or an intervening element can also be present. When an element is referred to as being "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or an intervening element can also be present. Further, when an element is referred to as being "fixedly connected" to another element, it can be fixedly connected to the other element in a manner that can be releasable or non-releasable, as long as power transmission can be achieved, such as sleeving, clamping, integrally formed fixing, welding, etc., which can be achieved in the prior art, and thus will not be described here. When an element is referred to as being perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to another element, it means that the ideal state of the two elements is perpendicular, but due to the influence of manufacturing and assembly, there can be a certain vertical error. The terms "perpendicular", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be the only implementation. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0087] It should also be understood that when explaining the connection relationship or position relationship of an element, although it is not explicitly described, the connection relationship and position relationship are interpreted to include an error range, which should be within an acceptable deviation range of a specific value determined by a person skilled in the art.
