In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the installation of the indicator light assembly in the device housing in the related art. Figure 2 for Figure 1 Exploded view of the indicator light assembly.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the related art, the indicator light assembly 01 can be installed on the inner side of the device housing 02, including a light board 011, a uniform light lampshade 012, a fixed pressure plate 013, a transparent light guide 014 and a sealing gasket 015. The fixed pressure plate 013 is used to be connected to the device housing, and can press the transparent light guide 014 and the sealing gasket 015 into the device housing 02 in sequence. The light board 011 can include a circuit board 0111 and five lamp beads 0112, and the lamp beads 0112 can be installed on the circuit board 0111. The uniform light lampshade 012 can be installed on the circuit board 0111, and can cover the five lamp beads 0112. The circuit board 0111 can be connected to the fixed pressure plate 013.

[0048] The present invention provides a device, which may specifically be industrial equipment such as a power supply device, including a housing, a device body and an indicator light assembly 1000 .

[0049] The device body is the core module of the device, which is mainly used to realize the functions of the device. At least part of the device body can be arranged in the housing so as to be assembled in an integrated manner through the housing. At the same time, the housing can also shield at least part of the components in the device body, which can reduce the invasion of external impurities such as water vapor and dust on the device body.

[0050] The housing may include at least two shell plates 2000. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, at least one shell plate 2000 may be provided with a light emitting hole 2300, and an indicator light assembly 1000 may be provided on the inner side of the shell plate 2000. The indicator light assembly 1000 may emit light through the light emitting hole 2300 to display the operating status of the device.

[0051] Combination Figure 5 In an embodiment of the present invention, the indicator light assembly 1000 includes a light board 1100 and a uniform light conducting component 1200 .

[0052] The lamp board 1100 includes a circuit board 1110 and lamp beads 1120. The circuit board 1110 may be a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA), on which a corresponding control circuit and electronic devices in the form of a processor, a capacitor, etc. may be provided. The lamp beads 1120 may be mounted on the circuit board 1110. The circuit board 1110 is provided with a first mounting hole 1111. The inner wall surface of the shell plate 2000 may be provided with a first mounting portion 2100. The lamp board 1100 may be installed through the first mounting hole 1111 and the first mounting portion 2100.

[0053] The uniform light transmission component 1200 may be made of a transparent material to achieve the light guiding function. The uniform light transmission component 1200 has a light incident surface 1241 and a light emitting surface 1221; wherein the light incident surface 1241 and the lamp bead 1120 are arranged opposite to each other. The uniform light transmission component 1200 is provided with a second mounting hole 1211A. The inner wall surface of the shell plate 2000 may be provided with a second mounting portion 2200, and the uniform light transmission component 1200 may be installed through the second mounting hole 1211A and the second mounting portion 2200.

[0054] By adopting the above scheme, the uniform light conduction component 1200 in the embodiment of the present invention can realize both the light guiding function and the light uniforming function, so that the uniform light conduction component 1200 can replace the three components of the uniform light lampshade, the fixed pressure plate, and the transparent light guide in the background technology, which can effectively reduce the number of parts of the indicator light assembly 1000, thereby reducing the structural complexity of the indicator light assembly 1000, so as to facilitate the installation of the indicator light assembly 1000, and at the same time, can also reduce the cost of the indicator light assembly 1000.

[0055] Furthermore, the uniform light transmission component 1200 and the light panel 1100 are installed and fixed separately for easy installation.

[0056] In a specific example, the uniform light transmission component 1200 and the light board 1100 may not be connected. In this way, the uniform light transmission component 1200 and the light board 1100 do not need to be provided with a corresponding connection structure, so that the structure of the uniform light transmission component 1200 and the light board 1100 in the embodiment of the present invention can be relatively simple, which can further reduce the cost of the indicator light assembly 1000. Of course, the uniform light transmission component 1200 and the light board 1100 can also be connected, so that the integration of the two can be improved and the connection reliability of the two can be improved.

[0057] Here, the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the connection method between the light board 1100 and the shell plate 2000, and the uniform light transmission component 1200 and the shell plate 2000. In practical applications, those skilled in the art can make a choice according to specific needs, as long as it can meet the requirements of use. For example, for the light board 1100 and the shell plate 2000, the first mounting portion 2100 can be provided with a threaded hole, and during specific installation, a first connecting member in the form of a screw or the like can also be configured, and the first connecting member can pass through the first mounting hole 1111 and can be threadedly connected to the first mounting portion 2100, so as to press and fix the light board 1100 to the first mounting portion 2100. For another example, with respect to the uniform light conduction component 1200 and the shell plate 2000, the second mounting portion 2200 may be provided with an external thread, and during specific installation, a second connecting member in the form of a nut or a nut may also be configured, and the second mounting hole 1211A of the uniform light conduction component 1200 may be inserted into the second mounting portion 2200, and the second connecting member may be threadedly connected to the second mounting portion 2200 to directly or indirectly press and fix the uniform light conduction component 1200 to the shell plate 2000.

[0058] In addition, the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the specific material of the uniform light transmission component 1200. In practical applications, those skilled in the art can also choose according to specific needs, as long as it can meet the requirements of use. For example, the substrate of the uniform light transmission component 1200 can be polycarbonate (PC), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylic (PMMA), etc. For another example, a light diffuser can be added to the substrate of the uniform light transmission component 1200 so that the uniform light transmission component 1200 can have relatively good uniform light performance; the light diffuser can be an inorganic light diffuser such as nano barium sulfate, calcium carbonate, silicon dioxide, or the light diffuser can be an organic light diffuser such as acrylic, styrene, acrylic resin, etc.

[0059] In some optional implementations, the light emitting surface 1221 may be designed to be a matte surface to increase the uniformity of light emission, which may greatly enhance the light uniformity effect of the light uniforming conductive component 1200 .

[0060] In some optional implementations, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the uniform light transmission component 1200 may include a base plate portion 1210 and a light emitting convex portion 1220. The base plate portion 1210 and the light emitting convex portion 1220 may be an integral structure formed in one piece, such as integral injection molding, so as to simplify the molding process of the uniform light transmission component 1200. Alternatively, the base plate portion 1210 and the light emitting convex portion 1220 may also be prepared separately and then assembled. The specific assembly process may be, for example, bonding, hot melting, ultrasonic welding, etc., as long as the base plate portion 1210 and the light emitting convex portion 1220 can be reliably connected.

[0061] The base plate portion 1210 may be provided with the aforementioned second mounting hole 1211A. The number and location of the second mounting hole 1211A are not limited here. In practical applications, those skilled in the art may design it according to actual needs, or may design it with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The light emitting convex portion 1220 may be located on the normal P side of the base plate portion 1210. The light emitting convex portion 1220 has the aforementioned light emitting surface 1221.

[0062] During the specific installation, at least a portion of the light-emitting protrusion 1220 can be inserted into the light-emitting hole 2300 so as to fix the installation position of the uniform light conduction component 1200 on the shell plate 2000, and the base plate part 1210 can be directly or indirectly abutted against the shell plate 2000 so as to improve the installation stability of the uniform light conduction component 1200 on the shell plate 2000.

[0063] The light-emitting protrusion 1220 may have a first outer peripheral wall 1222, and the first outer peripheral wall 1222 may also be designed to be a matte surface to increase reflection, thereby reducing light leakage, so that light can be propagated more inside the light-emitting protrusion 1220 and finally emitted through the light-emitting surface 1221, which is beneficial to increase the brightness of the indicator light assembly 1000.

[0064] During specific processing, the size of the light emitting protrusion 1220 can be controlled so that after the uniform light conducting component 1200 is installed, the light emitting surface 1221 can be flush with the outer wall surface of the shell plate 2000. In this way, the light emitting protrusion 1220 can basically achieve reliable blocking of the light emitting hole 2300, and can reduce the entry of dust and other impurities from the outside into the light emitting hole 2300 to shield the light emitting surface 1221, and thus the influence on the normal light emission of the indicator light assembly 1000 provided by the embodiment of the present invention; and it can also improve the external aesthetics of the device.

[0065] In some optional implementations, the indicator light assembly 1000 provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include a sealing gasket 1300. The sealing gasket 1300 may be provided with a via hole 1310. The light emitting protrusion 1220 may first pass through the via hole 1310 and then extend into the light emitting hole 2300. In this way, the light emitting protrusion 1220 may also realize the positioning and assembly of the sealing gasket 1300, which can reduce the possibility of the sealing gasket 1300 moving in position during installation and use.

[0066] The above-mentioned sealing gasket 1300 can be specifically made of rubber, silicone and other materials with certain flexible deformation properties. It can seal the gap between the light-emitting protrusion 1220 and the inner wall of the light-emitting hole 2300, and can reduce the possibility of external impurities such as water vapor and dust entering the interior of the device through the above-mentioned gap, thereby improving the anti-interference performance of the indicator light assembly 1000 provided in the embodiment of the present invention, and is more conducive to ensuring the working stability and service life of the indicator light assembly 1000.

[0067] Combination Figure 7 and Fig.10 The base plate portion 1210 may also be provided with a limiting protrusion 1230, and the limiting protrusion 1230 and the light emitting protrusion 1220 may be located on the same side of the normal direction P of the base plate portion 1210; the sealing gasket 1300 may be provided with a limiting portion 1320. During specific assembly, the limiting protrusion 1230 can be plugged into the limiting portion 1320 to position and assemble the sealing gasket 1300, thereby improving the installation reliability of the sealing gasket 1300 to a greater extent.

[0068] The above-mentioned limiting portion 1320 may be a through-hole structure penetrating the sealing gasket 1300. Alternatively, the above-mentioned limiting portion 1320 may also be a groove-shaped structure that does not penetrate the sealing gasket 1300. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited here. As long as the limiting portion 1320 can be plugged into the limiting protrusion 1230, the positioning assembly of the sealing gasket 1300 can be achieved.

[0069] As an optional solution, the above-mentioned limiting portion 1320 can be a through-hole structure. In this way, the limiting protrusion 1230 can not only cooperate with the limiting portion 1320 to limit the installation position of the sealing gasket 1300; and the limiting protrusion 1230 can also have an abutting surface 1230A, and the limiting protrusion 1230 can abut against the shell plate 2000 through the abutting surface 1230A, so as to accurately limit the depth of the light emitting protrusion 1220 inserted into the light emitting hole 2300, which is more conducive to ensuring that the light emitting surface 1221 and the outer wall of the shell plate 2000 are arranged flush.

[0070] The above-mentioned limiting protrusion 1230 can be fixedly located on the base part 1210. In this case, the structure of the uniform light transmission component 1200 can be relatively simple. Specifically, the above-mentioned limiting protrusion 1230 and the base part 1210 can be an integral structure formed in one piece, such as integral injection molding; or, the base part 1210 and the limiting protrusion 1230 can also be prepared separately and then assembled. The specific assembly process can be, for example, bonding, hot melting, ultrasonic welding, etc. In short, the limiting protrusion 1230 and the base part 1210 are fixedly arranged. Combined with Figure 7 With such arrangement, on the normal direction P of the base plate portion 1210, the distance between the abutment surface 1230A and the light emitting surface 1221 is determined. Under the condition that the light emitting surface 1221 and the outer wall surface of the shell plate 2000 are ensured to be flush, the above-mentioned uniform light conduction component 1200 can only be installed on a shell plate 2000 of a specific thickness.

[0071] In addition, the structure of the above-mentioned limiting protrusion 1230 can also be adjusted so that the limiting protrusion 1230 can be adapted to be installed on shell plates 2000 of various thicknesses, while ensuring that the light-emitting surface 1221 and the outer wall surface of the shell plate 2000 are flush with each other, thereby improving the compatibility and adjustability of the indicator light assembly 1000 provided in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0072] Specifically, if Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the limiting protrusion 1230 may include an adjustable portion 1231, and the adjustable portion 1231 may be provided with a first connecting thread, and the adjustable portion 1231 can be threadedly assembled through the first connecting thread; the adjustable portion 1231 has a first end face 1231A facing the shell plate 2000, and the first end face 1231A may be the aforementioned abutting surface 1230A. With this solution, by adjusting the thread assembly depth of the adjustable portion 1231, that is, the distance between the abutting surface 1230A and the light emitting surface 1221 can be adjusted, and under the condition that the light emitting surface 1221 and the outer wall surface of the shell plate 2000 are ensured to be flush, the above-mentioned uniform light transmission component 1200 can be adapted to be installed on shell plates 2000 of various different thicknesses.

[0073] exist Figure 8 In the embodiment, the position limiting protrusion 1230 may only include the adjustable portion 1231. In this case, the first connecting thread may be an external thread, the base plate 1210 may be provided with a threaded hole, and the adjustable portion 1231 may be directly threadedly assembled in the threaded hole of the base plate 1210.

[0074] exist Fig. 9In the embodiment, the above-mentioned limiting protrusion 1230 may further include a fixing portion 1232. The fixing portion 1232 and the base portion 1210 may be an integrally formed one-piece structure, such as an integral injection molding; or, the fixing portion 1232 and the base portion 1210 may be prepared separately and then assembled. The specific assembly process may be, for example, bonding, hot melting, ultrasonic welding, etc.; in short, the fixing portion 1232 and the base portion 1210 are fixedly arranged. The fixing portion 1232 and the light emitting protrusion 1220 may be located on the same side of the normal direction P of the base portion 1210, the fixing portion 1232 may be provided with a second connecting thread, and the adjustable portion 1231 may at least be threadedly connected to the fixing portion 1232.

[0075] exist Fig. 9 In the embodiment, the fixing portion 1232 may be a cylindrical structure, and the fixing portion 1232 has a second end surface 1232A facing the shell plate 2000. At this time, the first connecting thread may be an external thread; the second connecting thread may be an internal thread, and the inner hole of the cylindrical structure may be at least partially provided with the second connecting thread. The second connecting thread may extend to the base plate portion 1210, or may not extend to the base plate portion 1210, which is not limited here. The limiting protrusion 1230 may at least be threadedly connected to the inner side of the fixing portion 1232.

[0076] In the direction toward the shell plate 2000, the adjustable part 1231 can protrude from the fixed part 1232. At this time, the first end face 1231A of the adjustable part 1231 can be the aforementioned abutment face 1230A, and the distance L1 between the first end face 1231A and the light emitting surface 1221 is the thickness of the shell plate 2000 that the uniform light conduction component 1200 can adapt to be installed; and, as the threaded matching dimensions of the adjustable part 1231 and the fixed part 1232 change, the above distance L1 can change. In the direction toward the shell plate 2000, the limiting protrusion 1230 can also be retracted as a whole on the inner side of the fixing portion 1232. At this time, the second end face 1232A of the fixing portion 1232 can be the aforementioned abutment surface 1230A, and the distance L2 between the second end face 1232A and the light emitting surface 1221 is the thickness of the shell plate 2000 that the uniform light conduction component 1200 can adapt to be installed. Since the fixing portion 1232 and the base portion 1210 are fixedly arranged, the above-mentioned distance L2 cannot be adjusted.

[0077] It should be understood that the first connecting thread may also be an internal thread. In this case, the fixing portion 1232 may be provided with an external thread, which is also feasible.

[0078] The second mounting hole 1211A may pass through the limiting protrusion 1230, so that the second mounting hole 1211A may be integrated into the limiting protrusion 1230, thereby improving the integration of the uniform light transmission component 1200. Of course, the second mounting hole 1211A may also be provided independently of the limiting protrusion 1230, which is not limited here.

[0079] In addition, in each of the above-mentioned implementations, the sealing gasket 1300 and the uniform light transmission component 1200 are two independent components, and the two components are assembled by limiting the light emitting protrusion 1220, the limiting protrusion 1230, etc. In some other implementations of the embodiments of the present invention, the sealing gasket 1300 can also be fixedly located on the uniform light transmission component 1200, so that the installation process of the indicator light assembly 1000 can be further simplified. Specifically, the sealing gasket 1300 and the uniform light transmission component 1200 can be an integrated structure formed in one piece, such as by two-color injection molding; or, the sealing gasket 1300 and the uniform light transmission component 1200 can also be prepared separately and then assembled, and the specific assembly process can be, for example, bonding, hot melting, ultrasonic welding, etc.

[0080] In fact, in other implementations of the present invention, the sealing gasket 1300 may not be provided. In this case, the indicator light assembly 1000 may only include the light board 1100 and the uniform light transmission component 1200, and the structure of the indicator light assembly 1000 may be simpler. For example, an adhesive may be filled between the light emitting protrusion 1220 and the inner wall surface of the light emitting hole 2300, and the adhesive may also play a role in sealing the gap between the light emitting protrusion 1220 and the inner wall surface of the light emitting hole 2300. For another example, an application portion (not shown in the figure) can be applied to the outer wall surface of the shell plate 2000. The application portion can specifically be a label, a coating, etc. The application portion can cover the light output hole 2300, thereby shielding the light output hole 2300. This can also achieve the sealing of the gap between the light output protrusion 1220 and the inner wall surface of the light output hole 2300. In fact, when the application portion is applied to the outer wall surface of the shell plate 2000, the light output surface 1221 may not be flush with the outer wall surface of the shell plate 2000, and even the aforementioned light output protrusion 1220 may not be provided. In this case, the structural form of the uniform light conduction component 1200 can be simpler.

[0081] In some optional implementations, the base plate portion 1210 may further include a plate bottom portion 1211 and a reinforcement portion 1212. The plate bottom portion 1211 and the reinforcement portion 1212 may be an integral structure formed in one piece, such as an integral injection molding. Alternatively, the reinforcement portion 1212 and the plate bottom portion 1211 may be prepared separately and then assembled, and the specific assembly process may be, for example, bonding, hot melting, ultrasonic welding, etc. In short, the plate bottom portion 1211 and the reinforcement portion 1212 are fixedly arranged.

[0082] The bottom 1211 of the plate may be provided with a second mounting hole 1211A. The reinforcing portion 1212 is used to enhance the structural strength of the base portion 1210, and can reduce the possibility of damage to the uniform light conducting component 1200 during installation and use.

[0083] The reinforcing portion 1212 and the light emitting convex portion 1220 can be respectively located on both sides of the normal direction P of the disk bottom 1211. In this way, the reinforcing portion 1212 can be located on the side of the disk bottom 1211 away from the shell plate 2000, so that the side of the disk bottom 1211 facing the shell plate 2000 can be relatively flat, which is more conducive to the stable fitting of the disk bottom 1211 and the sealing gasket 1300 or the shell plate 2000. At the same time, for the implementation method including the sealing gasket 1300, the reinforcing portion 1212 and the light emitting convex portion 1220 are respectively arranged on different sides of the disk bottom 1211, which can also avoid the installation interference between the reinforcing portion 1212 and the sealing gasket 1300.

[0084] Combination Figure 8 The reinforcing portion 1212 may be annular, and in this case, the number of the reinforcing portion 1212 may be one, and the reinforcing portion 1212 may be located at the outer edge of the disk bottom 1211. In addition, the reinforcing portion 1212 may also include a plurality of sub-portions, and each sub-portion may be arranged around the outer edge of the disk bottom 1211, which is also feasible.

[0085] In some optional implementations, the uniform light transmission component 1200 may further include a light incident protrusion 1240 . The light incident protrusion 1240 and the light emitting protrusion 1220 may be respectively located on both sides of the normal P of the base plate portion 1210 . The light incident protrusion 1240 may have a light incident surface 1241 .

[0086] Similar to the light-emitting protrusion 1220, the light-incoming protrusion 1240 and the base plate portion 1210 may also be an integral structure formed in one piece, such as integral injection molding. Alternatively, the light-incoming protrusion 1240 and the base plate portion 1210 may also be prepared separately and then assembled, and the specific assembly process may be, for example, bonding, hot melting, ultrasonic welding, etc. In short, as long as the light-incoming protrusion 1240 can be fixedly arranged on the base plate portion 1210, it will be fine.

[0087] The configuration of the light incident protrusion 1240 can reduce the distance between the light incident surface 1241 and the lamp bead 1120 , so that the light generated by the lamp bead 1120 can be better incident on the uniform light transmission component 1200 through the light incident surface 1241 .

[0088] The light incident protrusion 1240 may have a second outer peripheral wall 1242, and the second outer peripheral wall 1242 may also be designed to be matte to increase reflection, thereby reducing light leakage, so that the light can be transmitted more inside the light incident protrusion 1240 and finally emitted through the light emitting surface 1221, which is beneficial to increase the light brightness of the indicator light assembly 1000.

[0089] Here, the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the specific structural shapes of the light incident convex portion 1240 and the light emitting convex portion 1220. In practical applications, those skilled in the art can select them according to specific needs as long as they can meet the requirements of use. Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the embodiment, the cross-sections of the light incident convex portion 1240 and the light emitting convex portion 1220 perpendicular to the normal direction P of the base plate portion 1210 can both be long strips. In this case, the light incident surface 1241 and the light emitting surface 1221 can both be long strips, and the lamp beads 1120 matched with the light incident surface 1241 can also be arranged along the extension direction of the light incident surface 1241, that is, arranged along the straight line direction, which can also reduce the number of lamp beads 1120 used, for example Figure 5 Only three lamp beads 1120 need to be set, compared with Figure 2 By using five lamp beads, the number of lamp beads can be reduced, and the cost of the indicator light assembly 1000 can be further reduced.

[0090] In some optional implementations, the uniform light transmission component 1200 may include at least two light emitting surfaces 1221, each light emitting surface 1221 may be arranged at intervals, and each light emitting surface 1221 may emit light corresponding to different light emitting holes 2300 on the shell plate 2000. In this case, one uniform light transmission component 1200 may be used in conjunction with multiple light emitting holes 2300, and the uniform light transmission component 1200 may have a higher degree of integration and may be easily installed.

[0091] For example, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 Three independent uniform light conduction components 1200 are shown. In fact, the three uniform light conduction components 1200 can also be integrated into one. In this case, the installation of the indicator light assembly 1000 provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be more convenient, and the parts required for the installation of the uniform light conduction component 1200 can also be reduced, which can further simplify the structure.

[0092] It should be understood that when the number of light-emitting surfaces 1221 is at least two, the number of light-incoming surfaces 1241 can also be at least two, and the number of light-incoming surfaces 1241 and the number of light-emitting surfaces 1221 can be equal, and each light-incoming surface 1241 and each light-emitting surface 1221 can be arranged in a one-to-one correspondence so as to construct mutually independent optical paths.

[0093] For ease of description, a light incident surface 1241, a light emitting surface 1221 and the corresponding lamp beads 1120 can be referred to as a light path module, and a light shielding component can be provided between different light path modules to reduce the possibility of light crosstalk between the light path modules. The specific types of the light shielding components are not limited here, and in practical applications, those skilled in the art can select according to specific needs, as long as they can meet the requirements of use.

[0094] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
