The lampshade 322 is installed on the top of the lamp holder 321, and the lampshade 322 has a light channel 324 that gradually increases from the lamp holder 321 to the lampshade 322. The light emitted by the lamp bead 325 is transmitted on the outer glass layer 1 through the light channel 324. This embodiment provides a specific mechanism of the color-changing projection lamp 32, and the lamp bead 325 in the light-emitting area in different patterns is controlled by the vehicle system to emit light. It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, a transparent cover plate 323 is provided on the top of the lampshade 322, and the light emitted by the lamp bead 325 is projected on the outer glass layer 1 through the transparent cover plate 323. In a specific example provided in the present application, the light source chamber 327 includes three equally divided fan-shaped lamp chambers 328 for respectively installing red lamp beads 325, yellow lamp beads 325 and blue lamp beads 325, and a partition 326 is provided between adjacent fan-shaped lamp chambers 328. In other embodiments, the light source chamber 327 includes two, four or other numbers of fan-shaped lamp chambers 328. In actual use, the number of fan-shaped lamp chambers 328 can be limited according to the actual required colors and color quantities, and is not limited here.

[0032] In this embodiment, the lamp holder 321 is provided with red lamp beads 325, yellow lamp beads 325 and blue lamp beads 325, and the following six colors can be formed by free combination: red, yellow, blue, orange, purple and green, wherein red is produced by the red lamp beads 325 emitting light alone, yellow is produced by the yellow lamp beads 325 emitting light alone, blue is produced by the blue lamp beads 325 emitting light alone, orange is produced by the red lamp beads 325 and the yellow lamp beads 325 emitting light together, purple is produced by the red lamp beads 325 and the blue lamp beads 325 emitting light together, and green is produced by the yellow lamp beads 325 and the blue lamp beads 325 emitting light together. The arrangement of the lamp beads 325 in this embodiment can produce a rich color change, enriching the color of the pattern displayed by the color-changing sky curtain.

[0033] In other embodiments, red lamp beads 325, green lamp beads 325 and blue lamp beads 325 are placed in the three fan-shaped lamp chambers 328 respectively, and in actual use, the free combination can form the following six colors: red, green, blue, yellow, cyan and magenta, wherein the red lamp beads 325 emit light alone to produce red, the green lamp beads 325 emit light alone to produce green, the blue lamp beads 325 emit light alone to produce blue, the red lamp beads 325 and the green lamp beads 325 emit light together to produce yellow, the green lamp beads 325 and the blue lamp beads 325 emit light together to produce cyan, and the red lamp beads 325 and the blue lamp beads 325 emit light together to produce magenta. It should be noted that the present application does not limit the combination of the colors of the lamp beads 325 in the lamp holder 321, and other embodiments can be set according to actual needs, which is not limited here.
