Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of lamp components, and in particular relates to a tail lamp light blocking structure. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, the light shielding plate of a lamp is usually integrally formed with the decorative part or the lamp housing. This design simplifies the assembly process. For other lamp structures with a large number of light shielding plates, a separate light shielding structure is usually provided. For example, the Chinese patent number "CN202221148797.6" and the patent name "An optical integrated unit for a vehicle lamp" discloses a lamp structure. Since a large number of light shielding plates must be integrated together, a separate first light shielding plate and a second light shielding plate are provided. The first light shielding plate and the second light shielding plate are respectively fixed to the circuit board. The lamp body is large in size, and the structure of each component can be designed at will. However, in some miniaturized lamp structures, due to the layout restrictions of the lampshade and the circuit board, the demolding volume of the decorative parts is strictly constrained.

[0003] For example, the taillights of electric bicycles are now more popularly designed with a flat structure. In order to ensure the space inside the taillight, the taillight decorative parts are designed to be relatively thin. This not only increases the internal space and reduces the weight of the taillight, but also reduces material costs, making the taillight more competitive in the market. However, many taillights adopt an arc-shaped structure, and generally the turn signal is required to be integrated with the taillight to form a headlight with dual functions of braking and turning. In this way, the taillight decorative parts or lamp housings must be provided with light shields, and the decorative parts and lamp housings are affected by the appearance design and cannot be greatly changed. For example, the thickness of the decorative parts. If the light shield is to be integrally formed with the decorative parts, in order to ensure the needs of the injection molding process of the decorative parts, the light shield must be of the same thickness as the decorative parts. Therefore, the light shield must also be designed to be very thin, so the light shield cannot be designed to be very long to avoid the position of the light shield being offset and causing light leakage. However, in some designs To facilitate the installation of circuit boards and other components, some areas of the circuit board will protrude a longer distance from the decorative parts. In this way, the light shield must be appropriately extended. To ensure the position of the light shield, it is necessary to thicken the baffle or set a positioning structure on the light shield to fix it to the circuit board. If the injection molding process becomes difficult and the mold becomes complicated, the processing cost will also increase, and the product qualification rate may decrease. The positioning structure is not easy to set for a thin light shield. If the light shield is thickened, there will be process problems. For example, if a split structure is adopted, the light shield is manufactured separately and then installed on the decorative parts. Although the injection molding process problem can be solved, the shape of the decorative parts is relatively special, and the installation is not very convenient and the speed is slow. Since the circuit board and multiple components are limited to each other, there will be many technical problems in how to facilitate the installation of the circuit board and how to effectively block light to prevent light from escaping from the predetermined area and avoid light leakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the present utility model is to provide a more practical taillight light blocking structure.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is achieved as follows: a taillight light-blocking structure comprises a light-blocking sheet and a decorative piece, the decorative piece is provided with a light-blocking plate, a shell plate and a mounting portion, the shell plate is provided with at least one lamp hole, the mounting portion is provided with a mounting hole or a mounting buckle so that the decorative piece and other components can be mounted together, the light-blocking sheet is provided with a slot and the slot width is greater than the thickness of the circuit board so that the light-blocking sheet can be snapped together with the circuit board to form an integrated structure so that when the decorative piece and the circuit board are assembled together, the light-blocking sheet and the light-blocking plate are joined to form a complete light-blocking structure, and the light-blocking structure divides a lamp hole on the shell plate into at least two, namely, a first lamp hole and a second lamp hole.

[0006] The beneficial effects of such a design are as follows: the light shielding sheet and the decorative parts are injection molded separately with a split structure, and the injection molding process will not be affected by structural reasons. The light shielding sheet can be set to a corresponding thickness as needed and is no longer affected by the thickness of the decorative parts. The light shielding sheet and the circuit board can be snapped together to make the positioning of the light shielding sheet more accurate, and can effectively block light, prevent light from escaping from the predetermined area and avoid light leakage. Such a design is not only easy to install but also has a very reliable structure. It solves the problem of insufficient structural strength at the connection between the light shielding sheet and the decorative parts, improves the reliability and service life of the product, significantly reduces the difficulty of demolding the decorative parts, improves production efficiency, simplifies the assembly process, and improves production efficiency.

[0007] Furthermore, the light blocking sheet includes a light blocking portion, a clamping portion and a limiting portion, the lower end of the clamping portion is fixed to the light blocking portion and the upper end is fixed to the limiting portion, the clamping slot is located between the light blocking portion and the limiting portion and is adjacent to the clamping portion, and a clamping slot is provided on the circuit board so that the clamping slot is clamped with the clamping portion, thereby ensuring that the circuit board and the light blocking sheet are clamped together more stably and accurately.

[0008] Furthermore, the thickness of the limiting portion is greater than that of the engaging portion. The thicker the limiting portion is, the higher the strength is. This can prevent the circuit board from swinging relative to the light shielding sheet after being engaged, optimize the optical performance, and effectively prevent light from escaping.

[0009] Furthermore, the width of the card slot is the same as the thickness of the circuit board, and an inclined opening is provided at the opening of the card slot so that the width of the card slot opening is greater than the width of the card slot, which facilitates the circuit board to be engaged in the card slot.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting portion is provided with a through hole and the light blocking portion is provided with a blind hole at a corresponding position so that the circuit board can be fixed between the limiting portion and the light blocking portion by screws. In this way, the circuit board is fixed more stably to avoid loosening, position displacement or light leakage of the light blocking piece.

[0011] Furthermore, an inclined abutting end surface is provided at one end where the light blocking plate and the light blocking sheet are joined to match the joining end of the light blocking sheet, so that installation is easier and the light blocking plate has a shorter extension distance and is not easily bent.

[0012] Furthermore, the thickness of the light blocking film is greater than that of the light blocking plate. The light blocking film is provided with a plug-in slot so that the light blocking plate can be inserted into the plug-in slot of the light blocking film when the decorative component and the circuit board are assembled together. In this way, after the light blocking film and the light blocking plate are plugged in, no light leakage will occur to cause light interference, and the positioning of the light blocking film is also more stable.

[0013] Furthermore, the plug-in slot is provided with a larger draft angle so that the relative position of the light baffle plate and the light baffle sheet can be corrected when the light baffle plate is inserted into the plug-in slot. In this way, even if there is a certain misalignment in the position during installation, it can be corrected to the accurate position by relying on the inclined surface, and the installation fault tolerance is better, making the installation more convenient, time-saving and efficient.

[0014] Furthermore, the light blocking sheet is provided with a stepped joint end, the joint end is provided with a first connecting plate, a second connecting plate and a transition end face, the transition end face and the abutting end face are inclined at the same angle, the thickness of the first connecting plate is greater than the thickness of the second connecting plate, and the transition end face is arranged at the connecting position between the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate. By bending the stepped surface, light will not leak even if there is a gap between the light blocking sheet and the light blocking plate, thereby improving the lighting effect.

[0015] Furthermore, the decorative component is provided with a first light baffle and a second light baffle, the light baffles include the first light baffle and the second light baffle, the first light baffle and the first light baffle form a first light shading structure, the second light baffle and the second light baffle form a second light shading structure, the first light shading structure and the second light shading structure divide the lamp hole into a first lamp hole, a second lamp hole and a third lamp hole, the first light baffle and the second light baffle are fixed to corresponding positions of the circuit board by screws or snap-on structures, so that a symmetrical design can be achieved, that is, turn signals are arranged on both sides of the brake light, and the light of the turn signal and the brake light will not affect each other under the action of the first light shading structure and the second light shading structure.
