[0052] Please also read Figures 1 to 8 The extendable reading lamp provided by the present application is now described. The extendable reading lamp provided by the present application comprises a swing arm 1, a hose 2 and a lamp body 3.
[0053] The swing arm 1 is hinged along the X direction of the vehicle body on the inner wall of the vehicle body facing the Y direction, specifically, one end of the swing arm 1 is hinged on the vehicle body; wherein, the hinge axis of the swing arm 1 is parallel to the X direction of the vehicle body, and a receiving groove 11 extending along its own length direction is also provided on its swing end surface, and the inner wall of this receiving groove 11 also has a through hole 12 that penetrates the outer wall of the swing arm 1.
[0054] The hose 2 is arranged in the receiving groove 11, one end of which is connected to the inner wall of the receiving groove 11, and the other end of which extends out through the through hole 12; under the action of manpower, the extended end of the hose 2 can move outward so that the part of the hose 2 originally in the receiving groove 11 extends out of the receiving groove 11; and the extended end of the hose 2 can also be inserted into the receiving groove 11 to shorten the length of the hose 2 outside the receiving groove 11.
[0055] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the hose 2 is made of metal or plastic; after the hose 2 is extended to the receiving groove 11, without human intervention, the hose 2 can be propped up to support the heavy object connected thereto.
[0056] The lamp body 3 is fixedly connected to the protruding end of the hose 2 , and the light source thereof is emitted in a direction facing away from the hose 2 .
[0057] In the embodiment of the present application, by swinging the swing arm 1 to a horizontal state and storing the hose 2 in the accommodating groove 11, the light source emission direction of the lamp body 3 can be made parallel to the Z direction of the vehicle body, so as to realize the use of the lamp body 3 in the space inside the vehicle; on this basis, if the lighting of the outside environment is to be realized, the lamp body 3 can be manually pulled outward to move the protruding end of the hose 2 outward; at this time, the hose 2 has a supporting effect on the lamp body 3 and can change the light source emission direction of the lamp body 3.
[0058] Compared with the prior art, the extendable reading lamp provided in this embodiment enables the reading lamp to be extended outside the vehicle and used for lighting the area outside the vehicle, thereby improving the functionality of the vehicle reading lamp.
[0059] In some embodiments, Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the through hole 12 also extends along the opening direction of the receiving groove 11 to penetrate the swing end surface of the swing arm 1, and a limiter 10 is also inserted and slidably connected in the through hole 12 along the axial direction of the receiving groove 11.
[0060] When the limit member 10 is inserted into the through hole 12 and the hose 2 extends through the through hole 12, the limit member 10 abuts against the outer wall of the hose 2 and cooperates with the inner wall of the through hole 12 to clamp the hose 2 to limit the movement of the hose 2 relative to the swing arm 1; and a locking structure 4 is provided between the limit member 10 and the swing arm 1, through which the limit member 10 and the swing arm 1 can be connected to limit the movement of the limit member 10 relative to the swing arm 1, thereby limiting the limit member 10 from exiting the through hole 12.
[0061] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the locking structure 4 includes a slot 41 and a stopper 42 .
[0062] The slot 41 is formed on the inner wall of the through hole 12 , and its axial direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the receiving groove 11 , that is, its opening faces the central axis of the receiving groove 11 .
[0063] The stopper 42 is slidably connected to the limiting member 10 along the axial direction of the slot 41 , and an elastic member 5 is disposed between the stopper 42 and the limiting member 10 .
[0064] After the stopper 10 is inserted into the through hole 12, the slot 41 and the stopper 42 face each other, so that the stopper 42 can be inserted into the slot 41, and the elastic member 5 is in an elastic contraction state or a non-deformed state. Moreover, when the stopper 42 is manually moved to exit the slot 41, the stopper 10 can move along the through direction of the through hole 12 to exit the through hole 12, and the elastic member 5 is elastically compressed.
[0065] In some embodiments, Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the limiting member 10 has a groove 101 , and the inner wall of the groove 101 has a guide hole 102 that penetrates the outer side surface of the limiting member 10 and communicates with the slot 41 ; the aforementioned stopper 42 is slidably inserted in the guide hole 102 .
[0066] Furthermore, the stopper 10 is connected to an end cover 20 that closes the groove 101 , and a strip hole 201 is formed on the end cover 20 ; the stopper 42 is provided with a push rod 421 that is inserted into the strip hole 201 and extends out.
[0067] When it is necessary to drive the stopper 42 to move to the exit slot 41 , the stopper 42 can be driven to move by the push rod 421 .
[0068] In this embodiment, the elastic member 5 is a spring disposed in the groove 101 and connected to the stop member 42; when the stop member 42 withdraws from the slot 41, the stop member 42 moves toward the side where the spring is located, and the spring is elastically compressed.
[0069] It should be supplemented that a guide shaft is also provided in the groove 101, the stopper 42 is slidably connected to the guide shaft, and the spring is sleeved on the guide shaft to prevent the spring from buckling and deforming along its radial direction.
[0070] In some embodiments, Figure 4 , such as 5 and Figure 8 As shown, an elastic ring 21 is fixedly sleeved on the extended end of the hose 2, and the elastic ring 21 is located at a position connected to the lamp body 3.
[0071] When the hose 2 is received in the accommodating groove 11, the lamp body 3 abuts against the outer wall of the swing arm 1, and the elastic ring 21 is embedded in the through hole 12; at this time, the elastic ring 21 plays a role of filling the gap between the limit member 10 and the hose 2, and elastically deforms under the action of the limit member 10 and the inner wall of the through hole 12 to prevent the hose 2 from moving relative to the swing arm 1.
[0072] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, a cover 30 is also fixedly connected to the limiting member 10; when the limiting member 10 is inserted into the through hole 12 and limited by the locking structure 4, the cover 30 is simultaneously embedded in the receiving groove 11 and stably closes the opening of the receiving groove 11, thereby preventing the hose 2 from extending out of the receiving groove 11 based on irregular deformation.
[0073] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the extendable reading lamp further comprises a lamp holder 6; the lamp holder 6 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the vehicle body facing the Y direction, and the swing arm 1 is hinged on the side of the lamp holder 6 facing the inner part of the vehicle.
[0074] A positioning structure 7 is provided between the swing arm 1 and the lamp holder 6; the swing arm 1 in a vertical state can be connected to the lamp holder 6 through the positioning structure 7 to limit the swing of the swing arm 1 relative to the lamp holder 6. In addition, a pull rope 8 is provided between the swing end of the swing arm 1 and the lamp holder 6; when the swing arm 1 swings to a horizontal state, the pull rope 8 is in a tightened state to pull the swing arm 1 upward and limit the swing of the swing arm 1 downward; and when the swing arm 1 swings to a vertical state, the pull rope 8 is in a relaxed state to be in the gap space between the lamp holder 6 and the swing arm 1.
[0075] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the positioning structure 7 includes a fixing pad 71 and a magnetic sheet 72 which are respectively fixedly connected to the swing arm 1 and the lamp holder 6; wherein the fixing pad 71 is fixedly connected to the swing arm 1, and the magnetic sheet 72 is fixedly connected to the lamp holder 6.
[0076] By adopting the above technical solution, when the swing arm 1 swings to a vertical state, the fixing pad 71 and the magnetic attraction sheet 72 are connected and magnetically attracted to each other, so as to limit the swing of the swing arm 1 relative to the lamp holder 6 .
[0077] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the lamp body 3 has two light emitting parts 31 for emitting light toward and away from the hose 2 respectively; in actual design, the implementation of the two light emitting parts 31 includes the following two technical solutions:
[0078] First, the lamp housing is designed to have a double-sided light-emitting structure. Specifically, the lamp housing is made of a light-proof, hollow material, the light source is fixed inside the lamp housing, and openings are provided on both sides of the lamp housing in the up and down directions for the light source to project out.
[0079] Secondly, the lamp is equipped with two different light output modules. For example, multiple LED patches are fixed on the upper and lower sides of the lamp housing respectively. Under the action of numerical control, the two groups of LED patches are turned on at the same time to achieve a visual effect of double-sided light output.
[0080] When the swing arm 1 swings to a horizontal state and the hose 2 is stored in the accommodating groove 11, the two light emitting portions 31 are both on the lower side of the swing arm 1, and their directions are both parallel to the Z direction of the vehicle body; among them, part of the light source projected by the light emitting portion 31 on the upper side can act on the reading environment under the reflection of the roof, and the light source projected by the light emitting portion 31 on the lower side can directly act on the reading environment. The two are coordinated to realize the lighting of the reading environment and meet the brightness requirements for eye protection.
[0081] By adopting the above technical solution, on the one hand, the swing arm 1 in the folded state can avoid occupying the Y-direction space in the vehicle; on the other hand, the swing arm 1 in the opened state can realize the vertical arrangement of the two light-emitting parts 31, so that the lamp body 4 can emit light on both sides; wherein, the lower light source can directly act on the lighting, while the upper light source serves to expand the lighting range.
[0082] Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present application also provides a car, comprising the extendable reading light proposed in any of the aforementioned items.
[0083] The beneficial effects of the automobile provided by this embodiment are the same as the beneficial effects of the aforementioned extendable reading light, which will not be repeated here.
[0084] The above content is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
