[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection function and a vehicle to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a front combination lamp structure and a vehicle with a pedestrian protection function, aiming to solve the technical problem that the existing front combination lamp structure is very likely to cause serious damage to the pedestrian's head in the event of a collision.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection function, comprising:
[0006] A front combination lamp, the front combination lamp comprising a lampshade and a lamp housing connected to each other, the lampshade being provided with a collision surface;

[0010] In one embodiment, the collision surface is inclined along a first direction from a side away from the trim panel to a side close to the trim panel.
[0011] In one embodiment, the included angle between the collision surface and the horizontal plane is denoted as α, 5°≤α≤10°.
[0012] In one embodiment, the body is formed with a cavity.
[0013] In one embodiment, the front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection function further includes a snap-in block, the snap-in plate is provided with a first through hole, the decorative plate is provided with a second through hole at a position corresponding to the first through hole, and the snap-in block is sequentially passed through the first through hole and the second through hole.

[0015] In one embodiment, the lampshade is provided with an inserting block, the lamp housing is provided with a slot corresponding to the position of the inserting block, and the inserting block is inserted into the slot.
[0016] In one embodiment, a sealant is provided between the insert block and the inner wall of the slot.

[0018] In addition, the present invention also provides a vehicle, which includes the front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection function as described above.
[0019] The present invention's technical solution eliminates sharp edges by directly attaching the trim panel to the lampshade. This prevents a pedestrian's head from colliding with sharp edges in the event of a collision between a pedestrian and a vehicle, thereby better protecting the pedestrian's head and reducing injuries. In this embodiment, the front combination lamps emit light; the trim panel serves as a decorative element, enhancing the vehicle's aesthetics; and the hood provides protection and sound insulation. The collision surface supports the trim panel, thereby supporting the pedestrian's head in the event of a collision. The buffer space formed between the collision surface and the trim panel ensures that the trim panel can deform upon contact with the pedestrian's head and reduces the impact force on the pedestrian, providing a cushioning effect. The trim panel is mounted above the collision surface via a snap-fit connection, simplifying installation and eliminating sharp edges. This prevents the pedestrian's head from colliding with sharp edges in the event of a collision, thus better protecting the pedestrian's head. Specifically, when a pedestrian collides with a vehicle, their head first contacts the trim panel. Subsequently, due to inertia, the pedestrian's head compresses the trim panel, causing it to deform and indirectly contact the collision surface. The collision surface then supports the trim panel, and thus the pedestrian's head. In this front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection, the trim panel is directly attached to the lampshade using a snap-on connection, eliminating sharp edges. This prevents the pedestrian's head from colliding with sharp edges during a collision, thus better protecting the pedestrian's head and reducing injuries. This front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection has applications in the field of vehicle technology. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] With the rapid development of industry, vehicles are playing an increasingly important role in people's daily lives. Headlights, as an essential component of vehicles, can perform multiple functions, including lighting, signal transmission, and improving vehicle visibility. During vehicle production, researchers discovered that existing front combination lamp structures typically have a structure under the hood to secure the trim panel to prevent it from shaking while the vehicle is in motion. However, these structures are mostly bolted together, and have sharp points. In the event of a vehicle collision, a pedestrian's head will collide with the trim panel and hood, and inertia will compress the trim panel and hood, causing them to deform and indirectly come into contact with the sharp points, which can easily cause significant damage to the pedestrian's head.
[0033] The utility model provides a front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection function and a vehicle, aiming to solve the technical problem that the existing front combination lamp structure easily causes serious damage to the pedestrian's head in the event of a collision.
[0034] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present utility model, the front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection function includes a front combination lamp 100, a decorative panel 200 and a hood 300. The front combination lamp 100 includes a lampshade 110 and a lamp housing 120 connected to each other. The lampshade 110 is provided with a collision surface 111. The decorative panel 200 is arranged above the collision surface 111, and the decorative panel 200 and the collision surface 111 are surrounded to form a buffer space 210. The hood 300 is arranged above the decorative panel 200; the lampshade 110 is provided with a snap-fitting hole and a snap-fitting plate 112, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the collision surface 111; one side of the decorative panel 200 is snap-fitted to the snap-fitting hole, and the other side is snap-fitted to the snap-fitting plate 112.
[0035] By directly attaching the trim panel 200 to the lampshade 110, this new solution eliminates sharp edges. This prevents the pedestrian's head from colliding with the vehicle, thereby better protecting the pedestrian's head and minimizing injuries. In this embodiment, the front combination lamps 100 emit light; the trim panel 200 serves as a decorative element, enhancing the vehicle's aesthetics; and the hood 300 provides protection and sound insulation. The collision surface 111 can support the trim panel 200 and further support the pedestrian's head when a pedestrian collides with a vehicle; the buffer space 210 formed by the collision surface 111 and the trim panel 200 can, on the one hand, ensure that the trim panel 200 can be deformed after contacting the pedestrian's head, and on the other hand, can reduce the impact force on the pedestrian and play a buffering role; the trim panel 200 is installed above the collision surface 111 by snapping, which can reduce the difficulty of installing the trim panel 200. At the same time, it can also avoid the presence of sharp parts, so as to prevent the pedestrian's head from colliding with sharp parts when the pedestrian collides with the vehicle, thereby better protecting the pedestrian's head. Specifically, when a pedestrian collides with a vehicle, the pedestrian's head will first contact the trim panel 200. Then, under the action of inertia, the pedestrian's head will squeeze the trim panel 200 to cause it to deform, and then indirectly contact the collision surface 111. At this time, the collision surface 111 can support the trim panel 200 and further support the pedestrian's head. In this front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection, the trim panel 200 is directly mounted to the lampshade 110 by snapping together, which avoids the presence of sharp parts. This prevents the pedestrian's head from colliding with the sharp parts when a pedestrian collides with a vehicle, thereby better protecting the pedestrian's head and reducing injuries. This front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection has applications in the field of vehicle technology.
[0036] In this embodiment, the lampshade 110 is made of PC material (polycarbonate), which has high rigidity and can provide sufficient support for the trim panel 200 in the event of a collision, thereby providing sufficient support for the pedestrian's head.
[0037] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present invention, the collision surface 111 is inclined along a first direction from a side away from the trim plate 200 to a side close to the trim plate 200, wherein the first direction refers to Figure 1In a specific embodiment, the first direction is the direction of the line connecting the lampshade 110 and the lamp housing 120. Specifically, when a pedestrian collides with a vehicle, the pedestrian's head strikes the trim panel 200 from above and, under the action of inertia, squeezes the trim panel 200, causing it to deform and indirectly contact the collision surface 111. Tilting the collision surface 111 along the first direction from the side away from the trim panel 200 to the side close to the trim panel 200 can make the collision surface 111 approximately perpendicular to the direction of movement of the pedestrian's head when the pedestrian collides with the vehicle, thereby reducing the impact force on the pedestrian. In a specific embodiment, the angle between the collision surface 111 and the horizontal plane is denoted as α, and 5°≤α≤10°. Specifically, the inclination angle of the collision surface 111 relative to the horizontal plane is limited to between 5° and 10°, which can make the collision surface 111 flatter. When a pedestrian collides with the trim panel 200 and squeezes the trim panel 200, and then indirectly contacts the collision surface 111, the relatively flat collision surface 111 is roughly perpendicular to the movement direction of the pedestrian's head, which can reduce the impact force on the pedestrian's head. At the same time, designing the collision surface 111 to be flatter can increase the buffer space 210 between the trim panel 200 and the collision surface 111, providing more buffering for pedestrians.
[0038] In a specific embodiment, the trim panel 200 is formed with a raised portion that protrudes away from the collision surface 111. Specifically, by making the trim panel 200 protrude away from the collision surface 111 to form the raised portion, the buffer space 210 between the trim panel 200 and the collision surface 111 can be increased, providing more cushioning for pedestrians.
[0039] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection further includes a connecting block 400. The connecting plate 112 defines a first through-hole, and the decorative panel 200 defines a second through-hole corresponding to the first through-hole. The connecting block 400 is sequentially inserted through the first through-hole and the second through-hole. Specifically, by sequentially inserting the connecting block 400 through the first through-hole of the connecting plate 112 and the second through-hole of the decorative panel 200, the decorative panel 200 and the connecting plate 112 are connected. This simple structure reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the front combination lamp structure with pedestrian protection.
[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, the connecting block 400 includes a clamping plate 410, a main body 420, and an annular protrusion 430, which are sequentially connected. The main body 420 is sequentially inserted through a first through-hole and a second through-hole. The clamping plate 410 can abut against the decorative plate 200, and the annular protrusion 430 can abut against the connecting bracket. A cavity is formed in the main body 420. Specifically, when the decorative plate 200 is connected to the clamping plate 112, the annular protrusion 430 must be inserted through the first through-hole and the second through-hole in sequence until both the clamping plate 112 and the decorative plate 200 are fully inserted into the gap between the annular protrusion 430 and the clamping plate 410. The cavity formed within the main body 420 ensures that the annular protrusion 430 can pass through the first through-hole and the second through-hole. In a specific embodiment, the main body 420, the clamping plate 410, and the annular protrusion 430 are integrally formed, that is, the connecting block 400 is manufactured using an integrated molding process.
[0041] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present invention, the lampshade 110 is provided with an insert block 113, and the lamp housing 120 is provided with a slot 121 at a position corresponding to the insert block 113. The insert block 113 is inserted into the slot 121. Specifically, the lampshade 110 and the lamp housing 120 are connected by the insert block 113 mating with the slot 121. That is, the lampshade 110 and the lamp housing 120 are assembled using a plug-in method. This ensures the accurate relative positioning of the lampshade 110 and the lamp housing 120 and reduces the difficulty of assembling the front combination lamp 100.
[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, a sealant is provided between the insert block 113 and the inner wall of the slot 121. Specifically, the sealant is filled between the insert block 113 and the inner wall of the slot 121, which can make the connection between the lampshade 110 and the lamp housing 120 more stable and also provide a sealing effect.
[0043] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present invention, the front combination lamp 100 further includes a through-lamp 130. The lampshade 110 and the lamp housing 120 define a receiving cavity 140, and the through-lamp 130 is received in the receiving cavity 140. In this embodiment, the through-lamp 130 is installed in the receiving cavity 140 defined by the lampshade 110 and the lamp housing 120 and is configured to emit light.
[0044] In this embodiment, the lampshade 110 is manufactured using two-shot injection molding. Specifically, the lampshade 110 includes a first connecting portion, a second connecting portion, a third connecting portion, a fourth connecting portion, and a fifth connecting portion, which are sequentially connected. During manufacturing, the fixed mold and a movable mold are first assembled, and an opaque material (e.g., ABS plastic, polystyrene, etc.) is injected into the mold cavity formed by the two molds to form the first connecting portion, the third connecting portion, and the fifth connecting portion. Subsequently, the fixed mold and another movable mold are assembled, and a transparent material (e.g., polymethyl methacrylate, polycarbonate, etc.) is injected into the mold cavity formed by the two molds to form the second connecting portion and the fourth connecting portion, thereby completing the manufacture of the lampshade 110. In a specific embodiment, when the through-lamp 130 is installed in the accommodating cavity 140, the through-lamp 130 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 140 with its light-emitting surface facing the fourth connecting portion. This ensures that light emitted by the through-lamp 130 can be emitted through the fourth connecting portion to provide lighting, signal transmission, and other functions.
[0045] The present utility model also proposes a vehicle, which includes a front combination lamp structure with a pedestrian protection function. The specific structure of the front combination lamp structure with a pedestrian protection function refers to the above-mentioned embodiment. Since the vehicle adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here one by one.
[0046] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
