In addition, although the examples described herein have various configurations, other configurations are possible as will be apparent after understanding the disclosure of the present application.

[0038] The first aspect of the present application provides a headlight assembly, thereby solving the problem that the headlight structure of existing general vehicle models is exposed, has a high damage frequency and high maintenance cost.

[0039] The following will refer to Figures 1 to 6 A headlight assembly according to some embodiments of the present application is described in detail.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the headlight assembly of the present application includes a headlight body 100 and a protective shell 200. The headlight body 100 is installed inside the protective shell 200; the protective shell 200 wraps the headlight body 100 and has a light-transmitting hole 2011, and the light-transmitting hole 2011 exposes the headlight body 100. Figure 3As shown, the outer side of the protective shell 200 is provided with a plurality of fixing parts, and the plurality of fixing parts can be fixed to the vehicle.

[0041] According to the above technical features, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0042] The headlight assembly of the present application additionally includes a protective shell 200, which can wrap the headlight body 100 as a whole and is provided with a light-transmitting hole 2011 to expose the headlight body 100. Under the premise of not affecting the light distribution effect, the protective shell 200 effectively protects the structure of the headlight body 100 and prevents the structure of the headlight body 100 from being damaged in a low-speed collision, thereby greatly reducing the maintenance cost.

[0043] That is to say, the present application uses a protective shell 200 to wrap the headlight body 100 structure to play a protective role. In the event of a low-speed collision, if the headlight body 100 is hit, only the protective shell 200 will be damaged; if the vehicle body is hit, although the fixing points of the headlight (multiple fixing parts on the outer side of the protective shell 200) may be affected, causing the fixing point structure to break, only the protective shell 200 will be damaged; therefore, after-sales maintenance only requires replacing the protective shell 200.

[0044] It is also worth mentioning that the existing car combination light structure is coordinated with the body shape, has a large coverage area, a long lamp angle, and is more prominent at the front and side structures of the body. In the event of head-on and side collisions, the headlights are easily damaged. Moreover, the headlight structure is integrated with the surrounding chrome trim strips. If only the trim strips are damaged, the entire lamp needs to be replaced.

[0045] In this regard, in order to reduce headlight damage and lower maintenance costs, the present application separates the headlight decorative structure from the headlight main body structure.

[0046] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , the protective housing 200 may include a decorative piece 201 and a transition bracket 202. The decorative piece 201 is fixedly connected to the transition bracket 202 (for example, it may be welded or clamped) to wrap the headlight body 100; the headlight body 100 is fixed to the transition bracket 202; the light-transmitting hole 2011 is opened in the decorative piece 201 to expose the headlight body 100. In this way, the headlight decorative structure is separated from the headlight body structure, and the headlight body 100 structure is effectively protected without affecting the light distribution effect. On this basis, additional decorative strips can be fixed to the protective housing 200.

[0047] The specific structure of the headlamp body 100 and the assembly method with the transition bracket 202 will be described in detail below.

[0048] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the headlight body 100 includes an outer cover and a light strip 104, a light source, a circuit board 105 and a fixing frame 106 arranged inside the outer cover. The outer cover includes a front cover 102 and a rear cover 103.

[0049] like Figure 5 As shown, the fixing frame 106 is fixed to the rear cover 103, the light strip 104 is fixed inside the fixing frame 106, a light inlet is opened at one end of the fixing frame 106, and the light source on the circuit board 105 is arranged at the light inlet.

[0050] Continue to see Figure 5 The side of the fixing frame 106 facing the front mask 102 is provided with a light outlet, that is, the side of the fixing frame 106 facing the light transmission hole 2011 is provided with a light outlet. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the outer cover is in a strip shape, and the fixing frame 106 is in a strip shape; a side of the fixing frame 106 facing the light-transmitting hole 2011 is open to expose most of the light strip 104 .

[0051] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 As shown, the rear mask 103 is provided with a plurality of mask threaded holes and a pin shaft 1035 (including a first mask threaded hole 1031, a second mask threaded hole 1032, a third mask threaded hole 1033, a fourth mask threaded hole 1034 and a pin shaft 1035).

[0052] like Figure 2 As shown, the transition bracket 202 is provided with a plurality of bracket threaded holes and pin holes 2025 (including a first bracket threaded hole 2021, a second bracket threaded hole 2022, a third bracket threaded hole 2023, a fourth bracket threaded hole 2024 and a pin hole 2025) corresponding one by one to the plurality of mask threaded holes.

[0053] When assembling:

[0054] First, pre-hang the pin 1035 on the back side of the headlight body 100 on the transition bracket 202, and then connect the first mask threaded hole 1031 and the second mask threaded hole 1032 on the back side of the headlight body 100, and the third mask threaded hole 1033 and the fourth mask threaded hole 1034 at the bottom to the transition bracket 202 through bolts.

[0055] In addition, during assembly, an isolation gap of more than 3 mm must be provided between the outer cover and the decorative member 201 and the transition bracket 202 .

[0056] According to a second aspect of the present application, a vehicle is provided, comprising the headlight assembly as described above.

[0057] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown, the plurality of fixing portions are all disposed on the outer side of the transition bracket 202 .

[0058] Taking the front left headlight of the vehicle as an example: the first fixing part 2026 and the second fixing part 2027 are fixed to the front bumper beam assembly; the third fixing part 2028 and the fourth fixing part 2029 are fixed to the left connecting beam of the front cabin; the fifth fixing part 2030 is fixed to the left front fender.

[0059] In summary, the headlight assembly of the present application additionally includes a protective shell 200, which can wrap the headlight body 100 as a whole and is provided with a light-transmitting hole 2011 to expose the headlight body 100. Under the premise of not affecting the light distribution effect, the protective shell 200 can effectively protect the structure of the headlight body 100 and prevent the structure of the headlight body 100 from being damaged in a low-speed collision, thereby greatly reducing the maintenance cost.

[0060] That is to say, the present application uses a protective shell 200 to wrap the headlight body 100 structure to play a protective role. In the event of a low-speed collision, if the headlight body 100 is hit, only the protective shell 200 will be damaged; if the vehicle body is hit, although the fixing points of the headlight (multiple fixing parts on the outer side of the protective shell 200) may be affected, causing the fixing point structure to break, only the protective shell 200 will be damaged; therefore, after-sales maintenance only requires replacing the protective shell 200.

[0061] In addition to the basic protection function, the protective shell 200 can also be combined with decorative strips, front bumper fixing points and other structures as needed to play a structural bearing and decorative role.

[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are only specific implementation methods of the present application, which are used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application rather than to limit them. The protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that any technician familiar with this technical field can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein; and these modifications, changes or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and should all be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
