AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing light strips used in the automotive grille are prone to light spots or shadows when they emit light, resulting in uneven luminous effects. In order to solve this problem, it is usually necessary to increase the thickness or density of the light strip, which violates the strict requirements for the size of the automotive grille.

Method used

A flexible light strip consisting of a rubber housing, a lamp panel, a lamp bead and a diffusion profile were designed. The diffusion profile is located above the lamp plate, and is equipped with a light transition cavity and a serrated optical surface. Through these structures, the light is refracted multiple times in the diffusion profile to form a more uniform light distribution.

Benefits of technology

Through the design of diffused profiles, the problem of light exposure has graininess and spots is solved, and there is no need to increase the thickness of the light strip, making the light more uniform and soft and improving the display effect.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile accessories, in particular to a flexible light strip used for an automobile grille. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, light strips used for decorative lighting, especially light strips using LED lamp beads as light sources, have the light-emitting surface of the LED lamp beads in the same direction as the light-emitting surface of the light strip. Due to the same-directional arrangement, light spots or shadows are prone to appear on the light-emitting surface of the light strip. It is often necessary to increase the distance between the LED lamp beads and the light-emitting surface or increase the density of the LED lamp beads to solve the problem of light spots and shadows, thereby making the lighting effect uniform.

[0003] However, such a design will cause the light bar to become thicker and larger, making the light bar bulky, especially the light bar installed on the car's center net, which has strict requirements on the size of the light bar, otherwise it will not fit, so the structure needs to be further improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a flexible light strip for a car grille, which solves the problem of poor light display effect by using a diffusion profile.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is achieved as follows: a flexible light strip for a car grille comprises a rubber shell, wherein a first mounting groove and a second mounting groove are respectively provided in the rubber shell along the length direction, a light board is provided in the first mounting groove, a plurality of lamp beads are provided on the light board, a diffusion profile is provided in the second mounting groove, the diffusion profile is located above the light board, a light transition cavity is provided in the diffusion profile, a serrated optical surface is formed on the lower end face of the diffusion profile, an opening is provided on one side of the rubber shell, and a transparent cover is installed at the opening.

[0006] Preferably, the upper end surface of the light transition cavity is formed with a first sawtooth portion, and the lower end surface of the light transition cavity is formed with a second sawtooth portion.

[0007] Preferably, a limiting platform is provided between the first installation groove and the second installation groove, and the second installation groove is formed between the limiting platform and the transparent cover.

[0008] Preferably, the lamp panel is obliquely arranged in the first mounting groove.

[0009] Preferably, an inclined seat is formed in the installation groove 1, and the lamp board is fixed on the inclined seat.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following outstanding and beneficial technical effects:

[0011] The utility model adopts the design of the diffusion profile, so that in actual use, when the lamp bead is lit, the light it emits will pass through the diffusion profile, and after multiple refractions inside the diffusion profile, it will illuminate the translucent cover for display, thereby solving the problem of granularity and light spots in the lighting in the prior art, without increasing the thickness of the light strip, making the lighting more uniform and softer, and improving the display effect.
