Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of lamps, and in particular to a license plate lamp installation structure, a license plate lamp and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The license plate light is a must-have light for every car, used to illuminate the car license plate so that the license plate number can be clearly identified at night or in dark weather. The license plate light usually includes a mounting structure and a light source mounted on the mounting structure. The mounting structure is mounted on a mounting plate. For example, the mounting plate can be a metal plate or a plastic plate. Due to the different materials of the mounting plate, the thickness of the mounting plate varies greatly. The thickness of the metal plate is generally about 0.7 mm, and the thickness of the plastic plate is generally about 2.5 mm. However, the existing license plate light mounting structure cannot be applied to mounting plates of different thicknesses, resulting in poor versatility of the license plate light. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a license plate light installation structure, a license plate light and a vehicle to solve the problem of poor versatility of existing license plate lights.

[0004] An embodiment of the first aspect of the present application proposes a license plate light mounting structure, comprising a lamp housing and elastic clamping feet, wherein the elastic clamping feet are respectively provided on opposite sides of the lamp housing in a first direction, and the elastic clamping feet are provided with a plurality of clamping positions for adapting to mounting plates of different thicknesses.

[0005] The license plate light mounting structure provided in the embodiment of the present application improves the versatility of the license plate light by respectively arranging elastic clamping feet on opposite sides of the lamp housing and arranging multiple clamping positions on the elastic clamping feet that are adapted to mounting plates of different thicknesses, so that the license plate light mounting structure can be installed on mounting plates of different thicknesses (for example, metal plates, plastic plates, etc.).

[0006] In some embodiments, the plurality of snap-in locations are staggered in the first direction.

[0007] In some embodiments, the elastic clamping foot is provided with a plurality of inclined surfaces, and a step surface is provided between two adjacent inclined surfaces, and the step surface and the corresponding inclined surface form the clamping position.

[0008] Since the step surface and its corresponding inclined surface form a snap-fit ​​position, when snap-fitting, the step surface can effectively limit the corresponding mounting plate, thereby improving the stability of the license plate light mounting structure after installation.

[0009] In some embodiments, a stop surface is provided on the lamp housing, and the stop surface is located on at least one side of the elastic clamping foot in a second direction, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the stop surface and the corresponding inclined surface form the clamping position.

[0010] By arranging a stop surface on the lamp housing and making the stop surface and the corresponding inclined surface form a clamping position, it is unnecessary to arrange a step surface on the elastic clamping foot, thereby simplifying the structure of the elastic clamping foot.

[0011] In some embodiments, a reinforcing rib is disposed on the outer wall surface of the lamp housing, and the stopping surface is disposed on the reinforcing rib.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the reinforcing ribs can not only strengthen the structural strength of the lamp housing, but also effectively limit the corresponding mounting plate, thereby improving the stability of the license plate lamp mounting structure after installation.

[0013] In some embodiments, the elastic clamping foot is integrally formed with the lamp housing.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic clamping foot and the lamp housing are combined into one part, the number of parts is reduced, the installation process of the elastic clamping foot is omitted, and the assembly efficiency is improved.

[0015] In some embodiments, the elastic clamping foot is a plastic elastic clamping foot, and the lamp housing is a plastic lamp housing.

[0016] The elastic clamping foot and the lamp housing are both made of plastic, which can reduce the material cost of the license plate lamp installation structure compared to metal materials.

[0017] In some embodiments, the lamp housing is provided with an opening, a portion of the elastic clamping foot is located in the opening, and another portion of the elastic clamping foot is located outside the opening.

[0018] By arranging a part of the elastic clamping foot in the opening of the lamp housing, the elastic clamping foot can be deformed into the lamp housing when the license plate lamp mounting structure is installed, so as to fully utilize the space in the lamp housing.

[0019] In some embodiments, the elastic foot includes an elastic plate and a plurality of snap-in plates disposed on the elastic plate, the elastic plate is connected to the lamp housing, and the plurality of snap-in plates are spaced apart along a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0020] In some embodiments, the elastic clamping foot further includes a reinforcing body disposed between two adjacent clamping plates.

[0021] By arranging a reinforcing body between two adjacent clamping plates, the structural strength of the clamping plates is increased, thereby further improving the stability of the license plate light mounting structure after installation.

[0022] In some embodiments, the clamping plate is provided with a guiding slope for guiding the license plate light mounting structure to be installed on the mounting plate.

[0023] When installing the license plate light mounting structure, the guiding of the guiding slope facilitates the installation of the license plate light mounting structure on the mounting plate of the vehicle.

[0024] A second aspect of the present application provides a license plate light, which includes a light source and a license plate light mounting structure as described in the first aspect, wherein the light source is mounted on the license plate light mounting structure.

[0025] The license plate light adopts all the embodiments of the license plate light mounting structure described above, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0026] A third aspect of the present application provides a vehicle, comprising a mounting plate and a license plate light as described in the second aspect, wherein the license plate light is mounted on the mounting plate.

[0027] The vehicle adopts all the embodiments of the license plate light described above, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0053] The first embodiment of the present application provides a license plate light installation structure. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The license plate light mounting structure 100 includes a lamp housing 10 and elastic clamping feet 20. The lamp housing 10 is provided with elastic clamping feet 20 on opposite sides in a first direction. The elastic clamping feet 20 are provided with a plurality of clamping positions 21 for adapting to mounting plates 200 of different thicknesses.

[0054] In this application, the first direction is Figure 3 The X direction of the mounting plate 200 is Figure 3 The Z direction in the figure can be understood as the first direction being the left-right direction of the vehicle, and the thickness direction of the mounting plate 200 being the up-down direction of the vehicle.

[0055] The shape of the lamp housing 10 is not limited in this application. It is understood that the lamp housing 10 can be a rectangular structure as a whole, or an elliptical structure as a whole. The lamp housing 10 can be made of metal materials, such as iron, steel, aluminum, etc.; the lamp housing 10 can also be made of plastic materials, such as PC (Polycarbonate), PP (polypropylene), etc.

[0056] A lampshade 30 is disposed on the lamp housing 10 , and the lampshade 30 and the lamp housing 10 form a mounting cavity 40 , in which a light source is mounted.

[0057] The lamp housing 10 is provided with elastic clamping feet 20 on two opposite sides in the first direction, which can be understood as the elastic clamping feet 20 are provided on the left and right sides of the lamp housing 10. The number of the elastic clamping feet 20 on the left side of the lamp housing 10 can be one or more; the number of the elastic clamping feet 20 on the right side of the lamp housing 10 can also be one or more.

[0058] It can be understood that the shapes of the elastic clamping feet 20 on the two opposite sides of the lamp housing 10 in the first direction can be the same or different.

[0059] It can be understood that the elastic foot 20 can be fixed on the lamp housing 10. In this case, the material of the elastic foot 20 can be the same as the material of the lamp housing 10, or different from the material of the lamp housing 10; or, the elastic foot 20 can be integrally formed with the lamp housing 10. In this case, the material of the elastic foot 20 is the same as the material of the lamp housing 10.

[0060] The elastic foot 20 is provided with a plurality of engaging positions 21, which can be understood as two or three or more engaging positions 21 can be provided on the elastic foot 20. When two engaging positions 21 are provided on the elastic foot 20, the license plate light mounting structure 100 can be engaged with mounting plates 200 of two different thicknesses; when three engaging positions 21 are provided on the elastic foot 20, the license plate light mounting structure 100 can be engaged with mounting plates 200 of three different thicknesses. That is, the more engaging positions 21 there are, the more mounting plates 200 of different thicknesses the license plate light mounting structure 100 can adapt to.

[0061] The license plate light mounting structure 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is configured with elastic clamping feet 20 respectively on opposite sides of the lamp housing 10, and multiple clamping positions 21 adapted to mounting plates 200 of different thicknesses are configured on the elastic clamping feet 20, so that the license plate light mounting structure 100 can be installed on mounting plates 200 of different thicknesses (for example, a plastic plate 200a, a metal plate 200b, etc.), thereby improving the versatility of the license plate light.

[0062] In some embodiments, the plurality of engaging positions 21 are staggered in the first direction.

[0063] It can be understood that the plurality of engaging positions 21 gradually approach the lampshade 30 in a direction approaching the center of the lamp housing 10 , so as to meet the installation requirements of the license plate light mounting structure 100 for mounting plates 200 of different thicknesses.

[0064] Please also refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the elastic foot 20 is provided with a plurality of inclined surfaces 22, and a step surface 23 is provided between two adjacent inclined surfaces 22, and the step surface 23 and its corresponding inclined surface 22 form a clamping position 21. The plurality of inclined surfaces 22 are provided on a side surface of the elastic foot 20 facing the mounting plate 200.

[0065] It can be understood that two, three or more inclined surfaces 22 can be provided.

[0066] Taking the two inclined surfaces 22 as an example, the two inclined surfaces 22 are respectively a first inclined surface 22a and a second inclined surface 22b. The second inclined surface 22b is closer to the lampshade 30 than the first inclined surface 22a. A step surface 23 is provided between the first inclined surface 22a and the second inclined surface 22b, wherein the first inclined surface 22a and the step surface 23 form a first locking position 21a.

[0067] Since the step surface 23 and the corresponding inclined surface 22 form a snap-fit ​​position 21 , when snap-fitting, the step surface 23 can effectively limit the corresponding mounting plate 200 , thereby improving the stability of the license plate light mounting structure 100 after installation.

[0068] In other embodiments, the elastic foot 20 is provided with a plurality of inclined surfaces 22 , two adjacent inclined surfaces 22 are directly connected and the angle between them is an obtuse angle, and two adjacent inclined surfaces 22 form a locking position 21 .

[0069] In other embodiments, a stop surface 111 may also be provided on the lamp housing 10 . The stop surface 111 is located between the first inclined surface 22 a and the second inclined surface 22 b . The stop surface 111 and the first inclined surface 22 a form a first engaging position 21 a .

[0070] Please also refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5In some embodiments, a stop surface 111 is provided on the lamp housing 10, and the stop surface 111 is located on at least one side of the elastic foot 20 in the second direction, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the stop surface 111 and its corresponding inclined surface 22 form a locking position 21.

[0071] The second direction is Figure 2 The Y direction in the figure can be understood as the second direction being the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

[0072] The stop surface 111 is located on at least one side of the elastic foot 20 in the second direction. It can be understood that in the second direction, the stop surface 111 can be set on both sides of the elastic foot 20, or the stop surface 111 can be set on one side of the elastic foot 20.

[0073] Taking two inclined surfaces 22 as an example, the two inclined surfaces 22 are respectively a first inclined surface 22a and a second inclined surface 22b. The first inclined surface 22a and the step surface 23 form a first engaging position 21a, and the second inclined surface 22b and the stop surface 111 form a second engaging position 21b.

[0074] By providing the stop surface 111 on the lamp housing 10 and forming the engaging position 21 with the stop surface 111 and the corresponding inclined surface 22 , it is unnecessary to provide the step surface 23 on the elastic foot 20 , thereby simplifying the structure of the elastic foot 20 .

[0075] In other embodiments, a step surface 23 may also be provided at one end of the second inclined surface 22 b away from the first inclined surface 22 a , and the step surface 23 and the second inclined surface 22 b form a second engaging position 21 b . In this case, the second inclined surface 22 b is located between the two step surfaces 23 .

[0076] In some embodiments, a reinforcing rib 11 is disposed on the outer wall surface of the lamp housing 10 , and the stopping surface 111 is disposed on the reinforcing rib 11 .

[0079] Optionally, the reinforcing rib 11 and the lamp housing 10 are integrally formed to reduce the number of parts and improve assembly efficiency.

[0080] By adopting the above technical solution, the reinforcing rib 11 can not only strengthen the structural strength of the lamp housing 10, but also effectively limit the corresponding mounting plate 200, thereby improving the stability of the license plate lamp mounting structure 100 after installation.

[0081] In other embodiments, the reinforcing rib 11 may not be provided on the outer wall surface of the lamp housing 10 , and the outer wall surface of the lamp housing 10 forms the stop surface 111 .

[0082] In some embodiments, the elastic foot 20 and the lamp housing 10 are integrally formed.

[0083] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic clamping foot 20 and the lamp housing 10 are combined into one part, which reduces the number of parts, saves the installation process of the elastic clamping foot 20, and improves the assembly efficiency.

[0084] In other embodiments, the elastic foot 20 may be fixed to the lamp housing 10 (may be connected by but not limited to fasteners).

[0088] In other embodiments, the elastic clamping pin 20 may be a metal elastic clamping pin, and the lamp housing 10 may be a metal lamp housing.

[0089] Please also refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, an opening 12 is provided on the lamp housing 10 , a portion of the elastic foot 20 is located in the opening 12 , and another portion of the elastic foot 20 is located outside the opening 12 .

[0090] It should be noted that another part of the elastic foot 20 is outside the opening 12 , which can be understood as another part of the elastic foot 20 is outside the lamp housing 10 .

[0091] Optionally, the lamp housing 10 may be provided with openings 12 on both sides in the first direction, and a portion of the two elastic feet 20 are located in the opening 12 and the other portion is located outside the opening 12. Of course, the lamp housing 10 may be provided with an opening 12 on one side in the first direction, a portion of one elastic foot 20 is located in the opening 12 and the other portion is located outside the opening 12; and the other elastic foot 20 is located outside the lamp housing 10 as a whole.

[0092] By arranging a part of the elastic foot 20 in the opening 12 of the lamp housing 10 , the elastic foot 20 can be deformed into the lamp housing 10 when the license plate light mounting structure 100 is installed, so as to fully utilize the space in the lamp housing 10 .

[0093] In other embodiments, the opening 12 may not be provided on the lamp housing 10 , and the two elastic clamping feet 20 are both located outside the lamp housing 10 .

The elastic foot 20 includes an elastic plate 24 and a plurality of snap-in plates 25 disposed on the elastic plate 24. The elastic plate 24 is connected to the lamp housing 10. The plurality of snap-in plates 25 are spaced apart along a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0095] The elastic plate 24 is in the opening 12 and connected to the lamp housing 10. One end of the elastic plate 24 close to the lampshade 30 can move toward the inside of the opening 12 under the squeezing force of the mounting plate 200. After the squeezing force of the mounting plate 200 disappears, the elastic plate 24 can return to its original position.

[0096] A plurality of clamping plates 25 are located outside the opening 12 , and each clamping plate 25 is provided with a portion of the inclined surface 22 and a portion of the step surface 23 .

[0101] In the embodiment of the present application, a reinforcing body 26 is provided between two adjacent clamping plates 25 to increase the structural strength of the clamping plates 25 , thereby further improving the stability of the license plate light mounting structure 100 after installation.

[0104] When the license plate light mounting structure 100 is installed, the guide of the guide slope 251 facilitates the installation of the license plate light mounting structure 100 on the mounting plate 200 of the vehicle.

[0105] The second aspect of the present application provides a license plate light for installation beside a vehicle license plate, for example, above or on both sides of the license plate, to illuminate the license plate at night or when it is dark.

[0106] Optionally, the license plate light mounting structure 100 has a mounting cavity 40 , and the light source is mounted in the mounting cavity 40 .

[0107] It can be understood that the light source can be a light bulb or an LED lamp bead.

It can be understood that the license plate light can be applied to plastic plates 200a of different thicknesses; or, the license plate light can be applied to metal plates 200b of different thicknesses; or, the license plate light can also be applied to plastic plates 200a and metal plates 200b of different thicknesses. Among them, the metal plate 200b can be made by sheet metal processing.

[0111] Optionally, in the left and right directions of the vehicle, the license plate lights are usually provided with two. Of course, the license plate lights can also be provided with one or three or more as required.

[0112] Optionally, the mounting plate 200 is provided with a mounting hole 201, and U-shaped notches 202 are provided at both ends of the mounting hole 201 in the X direction, and the U-shaped notches 202 are used to cooperate with the elastic clamping foot 20.
