Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile accessories, in particular to a lens waterproof structure. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the development of electronic technology, optical lenses have been widely used in various industries. In some fields, the lens needs to work in harsh outdoor environments, such as the automotive field, but the existing automotive lens equipment often has only a simple shell. The circuit board and the lens are placed in the shell, and a cover plate is provided at the opening of the shell. The lens is then extended directly out of the cover plate, which will cause a gap between the lens and the cover plate. However, when the vehicle encounters rainy and foggy weather while driving, the lens equipment using this structure will cause rain and fog to directly enter the shell from the connection between the lens and the shell, which can easily cause water to enter the lens equipment, and finally make the lens as a whole unusable. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a lens mounting structure with good waterproof properties. Utility Model Content

In addition, the technical features involved in each implementation method of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0019] As attached Figure 1 ,2 As shown in Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6, the utility model provides a lens waterproof structure, including a shell 1, a cover plate 2 and a lens module 3. An opening 4 is provided on one side of the shell 1, and the lens module 3 is provided inside the shell 1. The output end of the lens module 3 faces the opening 4, and the cover plate 2 is provided at the opening 4. A protrusion module 5 is provided on the side of the cover plate 2 away from the shell 1, and the interior of the protrusion module 5 is arranged to be hollow. The output end of the lens module 3 is arranged inside the protrusion module 5. At the same time, a baffle 6 is provided at the outlet end of the protrusion module 5. The baffle 6, the protrusion module 5 and the cover plate 2 are integrally formed, so as to ensure the overall sealing when the baffle 6, the protrusion module 5 and the cover plate 2 are combined.

[0020] Therefore, when the lens module 3 is installed, the lens module 3 can be directly placed inside the housing 1, avoiding the problem of a gap between the lens and the cover plate, thereby preventing the lens module from being flooded in rainy and foggy weather, thereby ensuring the waterproofness of the overall structure;

[0021] When the lens module 3 is installed, the output end of the lens module 3 can be set to the protrusion module 5, so that the output end of the lens module 3 can be extended out of the cover plate 2 through the protrusion module. There is no need to adjust the lens module 3, and the normal use of the lens module 3 can be guaranteed.

[0022] Preferably, the baffle 6, the protruding module 5 and the cover plate 2 are made of transparent plastic material. The use of transparent plastic material can ensure that the lens module 3 can transmit light through the baffle 6 at the outlet end of the protruding module 5, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the lens module 3.

[0026] By engaging the first limiting portion 31 and the second limiting portion 32 with the first limiting groove 51 and the second limiting groove 52 respectively, the output end of the lens module 3 can be limited to prevent the lens module 3 from being offset during operation.

[0027] As attached Figure 1 , 2 As shown in FIGS. 3 , 4 and 5 , mounting portions 9 are provided on both sides of the interior of the housing 1 , and a plurality of mounting holes 10 are provided on the surface of the cover plate 2 , with the exits of the mounting holes 10 facing the mounting portions 9 .

[0028] Subsequently, by providing a fastener at the mounting hole 10, the fastener can enter the mounting portion 9 through the mounting hole 10, so that the cover plate 2 can be fixed to the housing 1 to prevent the cover plate 2 from falling when the overall structure is in use.

[0029] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations of these embodiments are made without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
