[0002] The rearview mirror is a tool for the driver to directly obtain external information such as the rear, side and bottom of the car while sitting in the driver's seat. In order to facilitate the driver's operation, prevent traffic accidents and ensure personal safety, all countries have stipulated that rearview mirrors must be installed on cars, and all rearview mirrors must be able to adjust the direction. The interior rearview mirror is a mirror that can confirm the rear scene without changing the forward line of sight too much while driving.

[0003] The existing electronic rearview mirror in the car has electronic components. When the air conditioner is not turned on in the car, the electrical components in the rearview mirror are prone to heat up. However, the existing rearview mirror has poor heat dissipation effect, which can easily cause the internal electronic components to burn out, making the rearview mirror unable to display images.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a backlight source for a rearview mirror with a heat dissipation structure, so that the heat generated by the rearview mirror can be quickly dissipated through the heat dissipation component. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Embodiment 1: A backlight source for a rearview mirror with a heat dissipation structure, see Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, it includes an outer frame 1, a bottom shell 101, a mirror glass 2, a liquid crystal panel 3, a light guide plate 4 and a light strip 5. The light guide plate 4 is installed in the bottom shell 101 by bolt connection, the liquid crystal panel 3 is installed on the light guide plate 4 by bonding, the mirror glass 2 is installed on the liquid crystal panel 3 by bonding, the light strip 5 is installed in the outer frame 1 by bolt connection, the light strip 5 is flush with the light guide plate 4, the outer frame 1 is installed on the bottom shell 101 by snap connection, the mirror glass 2, the liquid crystal panel 3 and the light guide plate 4 are all located between the bottom shell 101 and the outer frame 1, and the mirror glass 2, the liquid crystal panel 3 and the light guide plate 4 are located between the bottom shell 101 and the outer frame 1. The heat dissipation component 6 includes a surrounding frame 601, a heat dissipation plate 602 and a heat dissipation ridge 603. The heat dissipation plate 602 for heat dissipation is installed in the bottom shell 101 by bolt connection. The surrounding frame 601 for heat conduction is installed on the heat dissipation plate 602 by bonding. The surrounding frame 601 wraps the light guide plate 4. The heat dissipation ridge 603 is fixed to the bottom of the bottom shell 101. The bottom shell 101 and the heat dissipation ridge 603 are integrally formed. The heat dissipation ridge 603 and the heat dissipation plate 602 are both hexagonal honeycomb structures, and the heat dissipation effect is excellent.

[0024] When the rearview mirror needs to be used, the light strip 5 is connected to a power source to make the light strip 5 light up, and the light guide plate 4 reflects the light projected by the light strip 5 on the liquid crystal panel 3, and the liquid crystal panel 3 is protected by the mirror glass 2; when heat is generated inside the rearview mirror, the surrounding frame 601 absorbs the heat on the light guide plate 4 and transfers it to the heat sink 602, and the heat sink 602 transfers the heat to the bottom shell 101 and quickly dissipates the heat through the heat dissipation ridges 603 on the bottom shell 101. The heat sink 602 and the heat dissipation ridges 603 use a hexagonal honeycomb structure, and the heat can be quickly transferred to the outside through the honeycomb frame.

[0025] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to Figure 4As shown, it also includes two support frames 7 installed on both sides of the bottom of the bottom shell 101 by welding, and a fan 8 for heat dissipation is rotatably arranged in the support frame 7. A plurality of air guide holes 901 are opened on both sides of the bottom shell 101, and the air guide holes 901 are connected to the support frame 7 and are connected to an air guide pipe 9.

[0026] When heat is generated in the bottom shell 101, the fan 8 is started to blow air to the outer surface of the bottom shell 101 to dissipate heat. At the same time, under the blowing action of the fan 8, negative pressure is generated in the support frame 7 area. At this time, the heat in the bottom shell 101 is absorbed through the air duct 9 and the hot air is dissipated outward.

[0027] See also Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a plurality of support columns 11 fixedly connected to the bottom of the bottom shell 101 by welding. The bottom shell 101 and the support columns 11 are integrally formed. A plurality of sliding grooves 10 are opened on the bottom shell 101. The sliding grooves 10 correspond to the support columns 11 one by one. The sliding grooves 10 and the support columns 11 are jointly slidably provided with a limit frame 12 for fixing the backlight module in the bottom shell 101. An elastic member 13 is wound around the support column 11. The two ends of the elastic member 13 are respectively fixedly connected to the support column 11 and the limit frame 12 by welding.

[0028] Under the pulling force of the elastic member 13, the elastic member 13 pulls the limit frame 12 to slide along the side of the support column 11 box away from the bottom shell 101, so that the limit frame 12 clamps the mirror glass 2, the liquid crystal panel 3 and the light guide plate 4 together and presses them into the bottom shell 101, and when the outer frame 1 is removed from the bottom shell 101, the internal components can be prevented from falling out and being damaged; when it is necessary to remove the mirror glass 2, the liquid crystal panel 3 and the light guide plate 4 from the bottom shell 101, the limit frame 12 is pressed along the support column 11 to move closer to the bottom shell 101, so that the limit frame 12 releases the mirror glass 2, the liquid crystal panel 3 and the light guide plate 4, and then the mirror glass 2, the liquid crystal panel 3 and the light guide plate 4 are tilted in turn and taken out from the bottom shell 101.

[0029] See also Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, a sealing gasket 14 is sleeved on the edge of the outer frame 1 by bonding; a plurality of supporting points 15 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the bottom shell 101, and the supporting points 15 are integrally formed with the bottom shell 101.

[0030] The sealing gasket 14 can make the connection between the outer frame 1 and the bottom shell 101 tighter, play a certain waterproof role, and prevent water from seeping in from the gap between the outer frame 1 and the bottom shell 101; the support point 15 expands the gap between the bottom shell 101 and the installation location, preventing the bottom shell 101 from completely covering the installation location, and the heat dissipation effect is better.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solution deviate from the scope of the technical solution of the embodiments of the utility model.
