During the rotation of the lamp body 2, the flange portion 223 can limit the further rotation of the lamp body 2 in this direction by counteracting the main shell 1.
[0022] Furthermore, the main shell 1 in the utility model includes a barbed portion 11 and a mounting buckle 4. The barbed portion 11 is protruding from the inner edge of the inner wall of the main shell 1. The barbed portion 11 is used to radially abut against the flange portion 223.

It is easy to understand that since the first cover body 21 and the second cover body 22 in the utility model form a spherical surface, the rotation method of the main housing 1 includes but is not limited to clockwise or counterclockwise rotation at the angle shown in the figure.
[0023] Furthermore, the ball and socket rod 31 includes a ball socket portion 311, an elastic portion 312 and a first rod body 313. The ball socket portion 311 is arranged at one end of the ball socket rod 31 facing the ball head rod 32 and the lamp body 2. The ball head rod 32 forms a ball head with the ball socket rod 31 through the ball socket portion 311. A first contact surface for limiting the ball head rod 32 is arranged on the ball socket portion 311. The first contact surface is located at one end of the ball socket portion 311 facing the ball head rod 32 and the lamp body 2. The first contact surface limits the rotation of the ball head rod 32 by abutting against the ball head rod 32. The first contact surface is an annular surface; the elastic portion 312 is laid on the inner edge of the socket portion 311 and on the side facing the ball head rod 32, and the socket portion 311 is abutted against the ball head rod 32 through the elastic portion 312, and the elastic portion 312 is used to provide friction when the ball head rod 32 rotates relative to the socket rod 31; the first rod body 313 is arranged at one end of the socket rod 31 away from the ball head rod 32 and the lamp body 2, one end of the first rod body 313 is fixedly connected to the socket portion 311, and the other end of the first rod body 313 is fixedly connected to the main shell 1. Specifically, in this embodiment, the ball socket 311 is assembled and fixed with the first rod body 313 by a number of bolts. The first rod body 313 is a straight rod, and the elastic part 312 is a rubber pad. It is easy to understand that when the ball head rod 32 rotates relative to the ball socket rod 31, the ball head rod 32 contacts the elastic part 312 in the ball socket 311 to form a ball head fit. Therefore, the force feedback and damping feeling when the lamp body 2 rotates can be adjusted by adjusting the thickness or material of the elastic part 312. In this embodiment, the elastic part 312 is preferably a rubber pad. The greater the hardness and thickness of the rubber pad, the greater the force required when the lamp body 2 rotates, and the stronger the damping feeling. The utility model realizes the adjustable force and damping feeling required when rotating the lamp body 2 through the elastic part 312, making the in-vehicle reading light in the utility model more convenient and practical, and providing a high-end user experience for the driver and passengers.
[0024] Furthermore, the ball head rod 32 includes a ball head 321 and a second rod body 322, the ball head 321 and the second rod body 322 are fixedly connected as one, the ball head rod 32 forms a ball head match with the ball socket rod 31 through the ball head 321, and the second rod body 322 is fixedly connected as one with the lamp body 2.

The ball head rod 32 can limit the further rotation of the lamp body 2 in this direction by abutting against the first contact surface. Figure 1For example, when the lamp body 2 in the figure rotates clockwise to the limit angle, the lower end of the ball head rod 32 will abut against the lower end of the first contact surface, thereby limiting the further clockwise rotation of the lamp body 2. It is easy to understand that the limiting method between the second rod body 322 and the first contact surface is the same as the limiting method between the hook portion 11 and the flange portion 223, and the hook portion 11 and the connecting portion 221. The above limiting method acts on the lamp body 2 and the main housing 1, and the lamp body 2 and the steering assembly 3 at the same time.
[0025] Furthermore, the utility model also provides a car, the car includes the aforementioned in-car reading light, and the in-car reading light is installed on the interior ceiling of the car.
