[0028] The technical solution of the utility model is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides an automotive LED headlight with good waterproof performance, including a housing 1, an LED lamp group 2, a light-transmitting mirror 3 and a sealing strip 4; the housing 1 is provided with a housing chamber 10, the LED lamp group 2 is arranged in the housing chamber 10, the housing 1 is provided with a first annular groove 11 and a second annular groove 12 along its peripheral wall direction, the first annular groove 11 is located on the inner side of the second annular groove 12, and a partition portion 13 is formed between the first annular groove 11 and the second annular groove 12; the light-transmitting mirror 3 is used to scatter the light emitted from the LED lamp group 2, and the bottom of the light-transmitting mirror 3 is provided with a first annular convex portion for being embedded in the first annular groove 11 Part 31, the height of the first annular protrusion 31 is equal to the depth of the first annular groove 11, and a first pressure plate portion 32 extending horizontally toward the outside is provided on the side wall of the first annular protrusion 31, and the first pressure plate portion 32 is used to abut against the partition portion 13; the bottom of the sealing strip 4 is provided with a second annular protrusion 41 for being embedded in the second annular groove 12, and the side wall of the second annular protrusion 41 is provided with a limiting protrusion 42, and the limiting protrusion 42 is used to abut with the side wall of the second annular groove 12, and the inner side wall located at the upper part of the sealing strip 4 is provided with a second pressure plate portion 43, and the second pressure plate portion 43 is used to abut against the surface of the first pressure plate portion 32. The double-layer structure of the first annular groove 11 and the second annular groove 12 can achieve a double-layer sealing effect of the automobile LED headlight. The first annular groove 11 is used to install the first annular protrusion 31 of the light-transmitting mirror 3, and the second annular groove 12 is used to install the second annular protrusion 41 of the sealing strip 4. The double-layer sealing structure can effectively block the entry of moisture and dust, thereby improving the service life of the automobile LED headlight; and the double-layer sealing structure is more adaptable to thermal expansion and contraction, especially in a high temperature environment, the first annular groove 11 and the second annular groove 12 can buffer the expansion of the material to a certain extent, avoiding the cracking or failure problem that is easy to occur in the single-layer sealing structure; the limiting protrusion 42 can be limitedly abutted with the second annular groove 12 to ensure that the sealing strip 4 will not loosen and prevent the entry of moisture and dust; the side wall of the first annular protrusion 31 of the light-transmitting mirror 3 is provided with a first pressing plate portion 32 extending horizontally toward the outside, and the first pressing plate portion 32 abuts on the partition portion 13 to prevent the light-transmitting mirror 3 from loosening or shifting, and the structural stability is good.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, further, the depth of the first annular groove 11 is less than the depth of the second annular groove 12. The first annular groove 11 is shallow, so that the first annular protrusion 31 of the light-transmitting mirror 3 will not be subjected to excessive stress when embedded, and the second annular groove 12 is deep, so that the limiting protrusion 42 of the sealing bead 4 can be embedded more firmly to avoid displacement due to external force.

[0031] like Figure 2As shown, further, the light-transmitting mirror 3 is a curved structure, and the height of the light-transmitting mirror 3 gradually decreases from the middle to the edge area. The curved structure can naturally guide rainwater and other liquids to flow down along the surface of the light-transmitting mirror 3, avoiding water from being retained on the surface of the light-transmitting mirror 3, thereby reducing the chance of water entering the interior of the headlight.

[0032] Furthermore, the light-transmitting mirror 3 is made of acrylic or polycarbonate. In this embodiment, the light-transmitting mirror 3 is made of polycarbonate, which has a very high light transmittance, so that the automobile LED headlight can fully utilize the light emitted by the LED lamp group 2 to provide a bright and clear lighting effect, and the polycarbonate material has excellent weather resistance, and will not age or turn yellow even if exposed to sunlight for a long time, and has a good waterproof effect.

[0033] Furthermore, adhesive glue is filled between the first annular protrusion 31 and the first annular groove 11. The adhesive glue can enhance the bonding strength between the light-transmitting mirror 3 and the housing 1, prevent the light-transmitting mirror 3 from loosening or falling off under vibration or impact conditions, and improve the overall structural stability and durability of the headlight.

[0034] Furthermore, the sealing bead 4 is made of silicone, fluororubber, nitrile rubber or polyurethane. In this embodiment, the sealing bead 4 is made of fluororubber, which has good elastic recovery and can fit tightly in the second annular groove 12 to achieve effective sealing; and fluororubber has excellent weather resistance and can resist long-term erosion by ultraviolet rays, high temperature and other environmental factors, and will not age quickly or lose elasticity due to exposure to sunlight, and has a long service life.

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, further, the width of the first annular groove 11 is smaller than the width of the second annular groove 12. The first annular groove 11 is smaller in width, which can ensure a close fit between it and the light-transmitting mirror 3 to prevent water and dust from entering; the second annular groove 12 is larger in width to provide enough space for the sealing strip 4 to be better filled and sealed, thereby enhancing the overall waterproof effect.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, further, a reflector 5 is included, the reflector 5 is arranged in the accommodating chamber 10, and the reflector 5 is used to reflect the light emitted by the LED lamp group 2 onto the light-transmitting mirror 3. The reflector 5 can effectively reflect the light emitted by the LED lamp group 2, guide and concentrate it onto the light-transmitting mirror 3, thereby maximizing the use of the light emitted by the light source, reducing the loss of light, and improving the overall lighting effect of the headlamp.

[0037] As described above, the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the utility model.
