[0029] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0030] In the related art, the luminous sign of a vehicle usually displays a two-dimensional plane effect and cannot display a three-dimensional visual effect. The appearance effect is not stunning enough and the sense of technology is low.

[0031] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 2 A sign assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0032] The sign assembly 1 according to the present invention includes: a shell 11, a three-dimensional logo 12 and a light-emitting element 13. A accommodating cavity 111 is formed in the shell 11, and a light-transmitting area 112 is formed on the shell 11; the three-dimensional logo 12 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 111, and at least part of the surface of the three-dimensional logo 12 is opposite to the light-transmitting area 112; the light-emitting element 13 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 111 and is located on the side of the three-dimensional logo 12 away from the light-transmitting area 112.

[0033] According to the sign assembly 1 of the present invention, a shell 11 is provided, and a receiving cavity 111 is formed in the shell 11. The receiving cavity 111 can accommodate the three-dimensional logo 12, prevent the three-dimensional logo 12 from leaking out, and prevent the three-dimensional logo 12 from being affected by the external environment, thereby improving the overall integrity of the sign assembly 1. A light-transmitting area 112 is provided on the shell 11, and the light-transmitting area 112 can ensure that the light of the light-emitting element 13 can be reflected out of the receiving cavity 111 after irradiating the three-dimensional logo 12, thereby realizing the lighting function of the sign assembly 1. The sign assembly 1 adopts a three-dimensional logo 12, and the three-dimensional logo 12 is directly opposite to the light-transmitting area 112 of the shell 11, so that when the light-emitting element 13 is lit, the reflected light after the light irradiates the three-dimensional logo 12 can pass through the light-transmitting area 112 to realize the lighting of the three-dimensional logo 12, so that the three-dimensional logo 12 can present a three-dimensional visual effect to the outside world, which is more stunning and full of technological sense compared with the traditional two-dimensional plane luminous sign. The three-dimensional logo 12 and the light-emitting element 13 are both cleverly arranged in the accommodating cavity 111 of the housing 11, making the structure of the entire sign assembly 1 more compact. At the same time, even if the light-emitting element 13 is not lit, the three-dimensional logo 12 can be directly seen through the light-transmitting area 112, making the sign assembly 1 more beautiful and enhancing the overall technological sense and user experience of the vehicle.

[0034] In addition, since the light-emitting element 13 is located on the side of the three-dimensional logo 12 away from the light-transmitting area 112, different forms of light sources (such as LEDs, halogen bulbs, lasers, etc.) can be selected as needed to meet different space, brightness, cost and other requirements, so that the sign assembly 1 has stronger adaptability and flexibility and can be widely used in different types of vehicles.

[0035] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a coating 14 is provided on at least a portion of the surface of the three-dimensional logo 12 facing the light-transmitting area 112. By providing the coating 14 on at least a portion of the surface of the three-dimensional logo 12 facing the light-transmitting area 112, the transmission effect of light on the surface of the three-dimensional logo 12 can be optimized, thereby enhancing the overall luminous effect. At the same time, the design of the coating 14 can further increase the design flexibility of the sign assembly 1, for example: the coating 14 of different colors, materials or textures can be selected according to different design requirements to achieve more diverse visual effects.

[0036] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the coating 14 includes: a protective layer 141 and a light-transmitting layer 142, wherein the protective layer 141 is arranged on the side of the light-emitting element 13 facing the light-transmitting area 112; the light-transmitting layer 142 is arranged between the three-dimensional logo 12 and the protective layer 141; wherein the light-transmitting layer 142 has a preset color.

[0037] The protective layer 141 disposed on the side of the light-emitting element 13 facing the light-transmitting area 112 can provide certain wear-resistant and scratch-resistant protection, and the light-transmitting layer 142 can meet the requirements of the normal use environment and extend the service life of the sign assembly 1. The light-transmitting layer 142 with a preset color can not only allow light to pass through, but also give a specific color to the transmitted light, so that when the light-emitting element 13 is lit, the three-dimensional logo 12 presents the expected color effect. The specific color effect can be customized according to the brand or design theme of the vehicle, which enhances the visual appeal and further improves the sense of technology of the sign assembly 1.

[0038] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the coating 14 further includes: a bonding layer 143, which is disposed between the light-transmitting layer 142 and the three-dimensional logo 12 to fix the light-transmitting layer 142. By providing the bonding layer 143, the light-transmitting layer 142 can be firmly fixed to the three-dimensional logo 12, thereby enhancing the stability of the internal structure of the sign assembly 1, and helping to prevent the light-transmitting layer 142 from falling off or shifting due to factors such as vibration, temperature changes or external forces during long-term use, thereby ensuring the continued good performance of the sign assembly 1. In addition, the bonding layer 143 not only provides a physical fixing effect, but also forms a tight bonding interface between the light-transmitting layer 142 and the three-dimensional logo 12, which can effectively reduce the reflection and scattering of light on the interface, improve the transmission efficiency of light, and make the three-dimensional logo 12 present a clearer and brighter color effect.

[0039] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the housing 11 includes: a protective shell 113 and a protective cover 114 , the protective shell 113 is connected to the vehicle body; the protective cover 114 is buckled with the protective shell 113 to define a receiving cavity 111 , and a light-transmitting area 112 is formed on the protective cover 114 .

[0040] The protective shell 113 is connected to the vehicle body, ensuring the stability of the sign assembly 1 when it is assembled to the vehicle; the protective cover 114 is connected to the protective shell 113 by snapping, and when the sign assembly 1 needs to be installed, replaced or maintained, the shell 11 can be easily opened or closed without the need to use complex tools or perform cumbersome operations, thereby improving maintenance efficiency and reducing maintenance costs. The protective cover 114 and the protective shell 113 after matching form a solid and closed structure, which enhances the structural strength of the shell 11 and can effectively protect the internal three-dimensional logo 12 and light-emitting element 13 from damage by the external environment. The light-transmitting area 112 formed on the protective cover 114 can be precisely designed according to the shape and size of the three-dimensional logo 12 to ensure that the light reflected by the three-dimensional logo 12 can evenly pass through the light-transmitting area 112 and present the best visual effect, which can effectively improve the aesthetics of the sign assembly 1 and enhance the recognition of the sign assembly 1 at night or in a dimly lit environment.

[0041] In some embodiments, the protective shell 113 may also be designed with an installation interface to facilitate the assembly of the protective shell 113 and the vehicle body.

[0042] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a first matching portion 1131 is provided on the protective shell 113, and a second matching portion 1141 suitable for matching and fixing with the first matching portion 1131 is provided on the protective cover 114. The first matching portion 1131 and the second matching portion 1141 match each other to realize the connection between the protective shell 113 and the protective cover 114. The setting of the first matching portion 1131 and the second matching portion 1141 makes the connection between the protective shell 113 and the protective cover 114 simpler and more intuitive: when installing or removing the sign assembly 1, the user only needs to align and fix or disassemble the first matching portion 1131 and the second matching portion 1141, without using additional tools or performing complicated operations, which reduces the difficulty of operation and improves the efficiency of installing and removing the sign assembly 1.

[0043] According to one embodiment of the present invention, one of the first mating portion 1131 and the second mating portion 1141 is configured as a sealing groove, and the other of the first mating portion 1131 and the second mating portion 1141 is configured as a sealing protrusion. The combined use of the sealing groove and the sealing protrusion can significantly improve the waterproof and dustproof level of the sign assembly 1. When the two are matched, the sealing protrusion can be embedded in the sealing groove and form a tight sealing relationship, effectively preventing external pollutants such as dust and moisture from entering the interior of the sign assembly 1, thereby protecting the internal electronic components and logos and extending the service life of the assembly.

[0044] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the sign assembly 1 further includes: a fixing bracket 15, which is arranged at the bottom of the three-dimensional logo 12, and the fixing bracket 15 is connected to the housing 11 and is suitable for supporting the three-dimensional logo 12. By arranging the fixing bracket 15 at the bottom of the three-dimensional logo 12 and connecting it to the housing 11, the stability and firmness of the three-dimensional logo 12 can be significantly enhanced, and the three-dimensional logo 12 can be effectively prevented from loosening or falling off due to factors such as vibration and collision during use, thereby ensuring the overall beauty and safety of the sign assembly 1.

[0045] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the sign assembly 1 further includes: a light-distributing module 16, which is disposed between the light-emitting element 13 and the three-dimensional logo 12, and is suitable for dissipating the light emitted by the heat-emitting element 13. The light-distributing module 16 can make the light emitted by the light-emitting element 13 more evenly distributed, which helps to reduce the uneven brightness of the light on the surface of the three-dimensional logo 12, and improves the overall visual effect of the sign assembly 1. In addition, the light-distributing module 16 can also optimize the use of light and reduce the loss of light during transmission, so that the sign assembly 1 can emit brighter, clearer and more uniform light at the same power consumption.
