[0002] At present, many new models are equipped with ambient lights on the exterior, and the shape of ambient lights has also evolved from the original standard long strip to the current various shapes, which brings great challenges to optical design. Traditional long strip ambient lights usually use an optical structure in which one LED particle corresponds to a strip light guide or one row of LED particles corresponds to a narrow light guide plate. However, for ambient lights with special shapes, especially those with a wider light-emitting surface, when there is a large angle between the incident light direction of the LED particles and the shape trend of the ambient light, the design will have obvious differences in brightness.

On the one hand, efficient light mixing is achieved, and on the other hand, the energy attenuation process is slowed down, thereby obtaining good uniformity; even if the light guide plate body is a curved special-shaped structure, or there is a large angle, through the mixing gain structure that matches the curved state of the light guide plate, a more uniform reflection effect can be achieved at all parts of the curved light guide plate, thereby improving the lighting effect of the internal mirror.
