[0056] Combine the following Figures 1 to 7 , describing an embodiment of the utility model.

[0057] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the one hand, as Figure 1 As shown, a license plate light structure is provided, including a housing 7 and:

[0058] Bracket assembly 3;

[0059] A drive circuit 4 is connected to a power source via a wiring harness 5;

[0060] The original light source assembly 6 is mounted on the bracket assembly 3 and connected to the driving circuit 4;

[0061] The license plate light source assembly 2 is mounted on the bracket assembly 3 and connected to the driving circuit 4;

[0062] The housing 7 is provided with a light outlet 71 , which is located at the light outlet side of the license plate light source assembly 2 , and the light emission path of the original light source assembly 6 is different from that of the license plate light source assembly 2 .

[0063] The original light source assembly 6 and the license plate light source assembly 2 share the shell 7, thereby forming an integrated structure. The light emitted by the license plate light source assembly 2 is emitted from the light outlet 71. Since the lamp body is shared, the license plate light no longer needs to be provided with a separate lamp body and a separate wiring harness 5, so no secondary assembly is required, thereby improving the convenience of assembly and reducing costs; and the space layout requirements are also reduced, saving space and achieving compact layout.

[0064] In this embodiment, the light outlet 71 is set as a rectangular opening whose length matches the length of the license plate. Of course, in some other embodiments, other opening forms such as ellipse can also be used, as long as the light emitted by the light outlet 71 can provide the license plate with the required light intensity.

[0065] The housing 7 forms a cup-shaped structure with an opening 72 at one end, and a mask 8 is installed at the opening 72, and the light-emitting side of the original light source assembly 6 is arranged toward the opening 72. The light outlet 71 is provided in the driving circuit 4 and connected to the vehicle wiring harness through the wiring harness 5, and the vehicle wiring harness is connected to a power source, while the original light source assembly 6 and the license plate light source assembly 2 are respectively connected to the driving circuit 4, and share the housing 7 and the wiring harness 5. Through the integrated design, compared with the method in the related art where the license plate light assembly needs to be provided with a separate housing, a separate driving circuit and a separate connection wiring harness, the layout space is saved and the cost is reduced.

[0066] In this embodiment, the license plate light is integrated into the tail light assembly, and the original light source component 6 can be a light source component of a position light, a reversing light, a fog light, a brake light or a rear turn signal light.

[0067] In one embodiment, Figure 1-4 and Figure 6 As shown, the license plate light structure also includes a license plate light distribution mirror 1, and the license plate light distribution mirror 1 is arranged at the light outlet 71.

[0068] The license plate light distribution mirror 1 is provided, which can distribute light as required, and form a relatively closed protective structure to extend the service life of the vehicle light assembly.

[0069] In one embodiment, the license plate light lens 1 is welded to the housing 7 .

[0070] The license plate light mirror 1 and the housing 7 are welded to improve the connection reliability. Compared with bonding and other methods, it is not easy to fall off even if the vehicle encounters large vibrations during driving, and the reliability is high. In addition, the welding fixation method has higher sealing reliability and excellent protection performance.

[0071] It should be noted that the license plate light mirror 1 can be made of PC material or PMMA material, and the license plate light mirror 1 can be reliably mounted on the housing 7 by ultrasonic welding.

[0072] In one embodiment, the housing 7 is a structure with an opening 72 at one end. The housing 7 includes a side portion and a bottom disposed opposite to the opening 72 , and the light outlet 71 is disposed at the side portion.

[0073] After assembly, the light outlet 71 on the side of the shell 7 faces downward, so that the license plate light source assembly 2 and the original light source assembly 6 form independent light outlets, which is also convenient for providing light for the license plate. Since the original light source assembly 6 emits light from the mask 8 at one end of the shell 7, the license plate light source assembly 2 emits light from the light outlet 71 on the side of the shell 7. After the license plate light function is integrated, the normal light emission of the original light source assembly 6 is not affected, and the function of providing lighting for the license plate is realized through the simple light outlet 71 structure. In this embodiment, the light emission directions of the original light source assembly 6 and the license plate light source assembly 2 are perpendicular. In other embodiments, the two light emission directions may also be at a certain angle. For example, the light emission direction of the license plate light source assembly 2 is not vertically downward, and the light is irradiated obliquely onto the license plate. At this time, the license plate light distribution mirror 1 can be arranged at an angle.

[0074] In one embodiment, Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a mounting groove 31 is provided at a position of the bracket assembly 3 close to the light outlet 71 , and the license plate light source assembly 2 is clamped in the mounting groove 31 .

[0075] The license plate light source assembly 2 is clamped in the mounting groove 31 of the bracket assembly 3, which facilitates the installation of the license plate light source assembly 2 and is easy to operate.

[0076] In another embodiment, the license plate light source assembly 2 is mounted on the bracket assembly 3 via fasteners.

[0077] The method of installing the license plate light source assembly 2 on the bracket assembly 3 by fasteners has a higher connection reliability.

[0078] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting groove 31 on the bracket assembly 3 can be set as a U-shaped groove, and the base plate of the license plate light source assembly 2 is clamped by the U-shaped groove to achieve positioning and limiting.

[0079] In one embodiment, the bracket assembly 3 includes a shielding portion for isolating the light emitting path of the original light source assembly 6 and the light emitting path of the license plate light source assembly 2 .

[0080] The shielding portion formed on the bracket assembly 3 isolates the light paths of the original light source assembly 6 and the license plate light source assembly 2 to prevent the occurrence of cross-lighting, ensuring that the light emitted by the original light source assembly 6 and the license plate light source assembly 2 is emitted along the set path, and the light emission of the two light source assemblies does not interfere with each other.

[0081] In one embodiment, a decorative frame 9 is provided in the light emitting path of the original light source assembly 6, and the decorative frame 9 includes a decorative frame body 91 and an inner light distribution mirror 92, wherein the decorative frame body 91 is a non-light-transmitting part and the inner light distribution mirror 92 is a light-transmitting mirror.

[0082] The inner light-distributing mirror 92 of the decorative frame 9 is a light-transmitting mirror, which can realize the function of the inner light-distributing mirror and the function of the position lamp.

[0083] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the other hand, a vehicle lamp assembly is provided, including a license plate lamp structure.

[0084] The vehicle lamp assembly integrates the function of the license plate lamp into other functional lamps. Due to the shared lamp body (housing 7, wiring harness 5 and connector), the license plate lamp does not need secondary assembly, which improves assembly efficiency and reduces costs; in addition, it can also save installation space.

[0085] In one embodiment, the vehicle light assembly is a tail light assembly.

[0086] The license plate light is integrated into the tail light assembly, and the license plate light does not need a separate wiring harness 5 , and does not need a separate connector to connect with the vehicle wiring harness 5 , which greatly reduces the cost.

[0087] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, in another aspect, a vehicle is provided, comprising:

[0088] A vehicle body, wherein a license plate mounting surface is provided on the vehicle body;

[0089] The headlight assembly is arranged above the mounting surface of the license plate.

[0090] Since the vehicle includes the lamp assembly of the utility model, it has the same technical effect as the lamp assembly, and no further description is given here. The lamp assembly is arranged above the license plate, and the light outlet 71 is arranged on the bottom surface of the housing 7, so that the light emitted by the license plate light source assembly 2 is directly irradiated onto the license plate, with small light loss and high efficiency.

[0091] Although the embodiments of the present invention are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
