Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of automotive ambient lights, and particularly to an automotive ambient light with a floating light effect. Background Art

[0002] As a lighting fixture for decorative purposes, automotive ambient lights are often applied to the door panels, consoles, etc. of automobiles to set off the in-vehicle atmosphere and give people a comfortable and pleasant experience. In the prior art, traditional automotive ambient lights often only emit simple point, line, and surface-shaped lights, and the changes in the ambient lights are mostly formed by adjusting the color changes.

[0003] However, the visual effects produced by traditional ambient lights are too monotonous, mechanical, and planar, lacking a sense of three-dimensional space beauty and interest. Moreover, the connection between the ambient light and the automotive interior module to which it is attached is not close, and there is a lack of interactive design between the two. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is that the visual effect of traditional automotive ambient lights is monotonous and there is no interactive effect with the modules to which they are attached. Therefore, this application provides a 3D light effect ambient light that gives the automotive functional modules a floating sense and a more virtual reality visual impact.

[0005] To solve the above technical problem, this utility model provides an automotive ambient light with a floating light effect, including an ambient light. The ambient light includes a light source module, a light guide component for guiding the light of the light source module, and a reflection component capable of repeatedly reflecting light to form a sense of depth of the light effect. It also includes a functional module embedded from the upper surface to the bottom in the middle of the ambient light. The reflection component can repeatedly reflect the light conducted by the light guide component to form a deep visual effect. The light is finally reflected on the side wall of the functional module embedded in the middle of the ambient light after multiple reflections to form an aperture, and then after being reflected by the reflection component, an infinitely extending light effect is mapped, thereby generating a visual illusion of the floating of the functional module.

[0006] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the reflection component includes a semi-transparent and semi-reflective lens located in the upper layer, and a total reflection lens is arranged in parallel below the semi-transparent and semi-reflective lens. A space for light reflection is isolated between the semi-transparent and semi-reflective lens and the total reflection lens by a support structure on the side. The support structure includes a light-shielding bracket and a light guide component. The light-shielding bracket presses the light guide component below, and the light enters from the side of the reflection component along the light guide component. The semi-transparent and semi-reflective lens is a lens with a light transmittance of 50%, which can not only realize the multiple reflection function with the total reflection lens, but also transmit part of the light reflected by the total reflection lens to the ambient light lamp shade for people to view. The light-shielding bracket can block the light conducted by the light guide component from scattering randomly to places outside the reflection component area, help to concentrate the light, increase the brightness, and control the light intake angle.

[0007] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the ambient light includes one or more light source modules, and each light source module is composed of a light source front cover, a PCBA board, and a light source rear cover. The light source module realizes power supply and communication of the light source through the PCBA board, and the structure is intensive, enabling the floating light effect to be achieved in a relatively small space. Connect one or more light source modules to the light guide component to provide the light source of the ambient light.

[0008] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the functional module can be any part inside the vehicle, such as a cup holder, a mode switch, a speaker, a ceiling light, a pillar, etc. The ambient light can be organically combined with any functional module of the vehicle according to the technical solution of this application to form a floating light effect with virtual and real interaction, increasing the driving and riding pleasure.

[0009] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the ambient light further includes a lamp shade with an opening in the middle, and the lamp shade includes a middle light-transmitting lamp shade and a surrounding light-impermeable mask. The light-transmitting lamp shade part serves as a window through which the internal light effect can be seen, and the light-impermeable mask can prevent light scattering and increase the brightness of the floating light effect.

[0010] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the light guide component includes a first light guide ring and a second light guide ring that are pressed tightly up and down. The light source module is connected to the first light guide ring, and the second light guide ring is arranged on the side of the reflection component. The material of the light guide ring is a diffusive material, which can evenly conduct light after connecting the light source. The light is conducted from the first light guide ring to the second light guide ring, and then the second light guide ring injects the light into the space between the semi-transparent and semi-reflective lens and the total reflection lens at a specific angle, and after multiple reflections, the floating light effect is presented.

[0011] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the light-shielding bracket is provided with a shoulder, and the edge of the semi-transparent and semi-reflective lens is limited by the shoulder and the light leaking from the edge is blocked.

[0012] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the functional module is a cup holder. The bottom of the cup holder extends horizontally and then turns up to form a flanging, and a groove for embedding the total reflection lens is formed in the middle. The groove turns up to form a bottom support to fix the total reflection lens, and the light-shielding flanging of the groove can also make the light enter the reflection component more concentratedly from a narrow gap.

[0013] Further, as one of the preferred ways of the automotive ambient light with a floating light effect: the light guide component is closely attached to the outer wall of the flanging, so as to form light that is gradually reflected from the outside to the inside.

[0014] In summary, the advantages of the present utility model are as follows: The reflection component of the ambient light can reflect light multiple times to form a light effect with a sense of depth. The light shines on the side wall of the functional module to form an aperture, and then after being reflected by the reflection component, an infinitely extending light effect is mapped out, forming a profound sense of passing through. The profound space in the mirror and the real automotive functional module form a virtual reality collision, creating a 3D light effect with stronger visual impact and making the functional module produce a floating visual sense.
