[0034] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are intended only to explain the relevant utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. The embodiments described herein are merely a portion of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] See also Figures 1 to 8 The example of this application discloses a car lamp, including a bracket 200 and a shell 100, wherein the bracket 200 includes a middle area 210 and an edge area 220, the middle area 210 is installed with 3M glue 300, and the edge area 220 is provided with a hook 230; the shell 100 includes a side surface 110, the side surface 110 includes a mounting surface corresponding to the middle area 210, and a limit card 130 is provided at a position corresponding to the hook 230, the 3M glue 300 connects the middle area 210 and the mounting surface, and the hook 230 cooperates with the limit card 130 to limit the bracket 200 from tilting.

[0036] In the vehicle lamp of this application, the middle region 210 of the bracket 200 is connected to the mounting surface via 3M adhesive 300, and the edge region 220 cooperates with the stopper 130 on the side 110 via a hook 230 to prevent the bracket 200 from tilting. Thus, even if the edge region 220 of the bracket 200 forms a cantilever structure, the cooperation between the stopper 130 and the hook 230 prevents tilting, thereby improving the connection strength of the vehicle lamp and reducing the risk of tilting.

[0037] It should be noted that the housing 100 includes a side surface 110 and a bottom surface 120 , wherein the side surface 110 surrounds the bottom surface 120 , and the bracket 200 is disposed on the side surface 110 to achieve connection between the headlight and the vehicle body.

[0038] The vehicle lamp may be provided with one or more brackets 200 to achieve connection between the housing 100 and the vehicle body. In the figure, there are three brackets 200 arranged along the length direction of the housing 100.

[0039] The hook 230 cooperates with the stopper 130 to limit the tilting of the edge region 220 of the bracket 200. As shown, the hook 230 includes a raised portion 231 and a latching portion 232. The raised portion 231 rises from the main body of the bracket 200 in the thickness direction, while the latching portion 232 extends outward from the raised portion 231 and abuts against the stopper 130.

[0040] The arched portion 231 is approximately arch-shaped, with an arch span of about 10 mm in length, about 5 mm in height, and about 5 mm in width. The above dimensions can ensure the necessary strength of the hook 230 while also allowing it to produce a certain elastic deformation for easy installation.

[0041] The limit card 130 on the housing 100 cooperates with the hook 230 and is generally "L"-shaped. The size of the limit card 130 can be determined by ensuring sufficient strength and a certain amount of deformation, which can be determined by simulation software.

[0042] The hook 230 and the limit clip 130 are locked and limited by interference fit. The height of the bracket 200 and the housing 100 is very small, and will not occupy the internal space of the headlight like conventional buckle or screw structures.

[0043] In addition, there are positioning ribs on the shell 100 that match the positioning holes on the bracket 200 for positioning; there are screw columns on the shell 100 that match the screw holes on the bracket 200 for fixing; there are also several conventional clips on the shell 100 that match the bracket 200 for limiting.

[0044] To improve the stability of the connection, the portion of the clamping portion 232 close to the side surface 110 is flush with the portion of the middle region 210 close to the side surface 110 .

[0045] A stopper protrusion is provided on the side of the middle region 210 away from the hook 230, separated by the 3M adhesive 300. The stopper protrusion is less than the thickness of the 3M adhesive 300. This stopper serves as a positioning mechanism, preventing the 3M adhesive 300 from being too thin. Furthermore, to facilitate quick positioning of the 3M adhesive 300, a positioning strip is provided in the middle region 210. The 3M adhesive 300 is installed within the area enclosed by the positioning strip.

[0046] In the example of this application, the bracket 200 is a long strip structure, and the edge area 220 includes four corners, two of which are located at the upper edge and the remaining two corners are located at the lower edge. The two corners located at the upper edge are both provided with hooks 230.

[0047] It should be noted that the above-mentioned upper edge and lower edge are determined based on the installation of the headlight on the vehicle body, wherein in the height direction, the edge located on the upper side is the upper edge, and the edge located on the lower side is the lower edge.

[0048] In order to improve the connection strength between the bracket 200 and the housing 100, a flange 240 is provided on the lower edge of the bracket 200. The flange 240 extends in the same direction as the bottom surface 120 of the housing 100. Due to the flange 240, the lower edge is not easily subjected to force.

[0049] Furthermore, the flange 240 may be parallel to the bottom surface 120 , and the bottom surface 120 and the side surface 110 may be arranged at an angle. Specifically, the bottom surface 120 and the side surface 110 may be substantially perpendicular.

[0050] In some other examples of the present application, a hook edge may be provided at the shell 100 , and the flange 240 may be folded inward, deformed under the action of external force, and hooked on the hook edge, which can further reduce the situation where the flange 240 is subjected to external force.

[0051] In the figure, there are multiple flanges 240, and the multiple flanges 240 are arranged at intervals on the lower edge. In some other examples of the present application, the entire lower edge is arranged with flanges 240.

[0052] This application also discloses a method for installing the bracket 200 and the housing 100, including:

[0053] Before installing the bracket 200 to the entire lamp housing 100, first tear off all the 3M adhesive 300 release paper on the bracket 200;

[0054] Move the bracket 200 so that the positioning ribs on the housing 100 are first inserted into the positioning holes on the bracket 200, and at the same time align the mounting structures such as the buckles and screw holes on the bracket 200 with the matching structures on the housing 100.

[0055] By pressing at a certain angle and force, the hook 230, the buckle and their matching structure are plastically deformed to install them in place. At this time, the back of the hook 230 of the bracket 200 is buckled under the limit card 130 of the shell 100 to form a limit.

[0056] Finally, press the 3M adhesive 300 adhesive area on the bracket 200 to ensure that the adhesive is firmly attached to the housing 100, and the installation of the bracket 200 is completed.

[0057] When transporting or installing the entire lamp assembly, when the edge of the bracket 200 is pulled, the limit card 130 restricts the hook 230, ensuring that the bracket 200 will not be excessively tilted and tear the 3M glue 300. This is equivalent to transferring the force originally applied to the 3M glue 300 to the hook 230, effectively protecting the edge of the 3M glue 300 from being firmly attached and not coming off.

[0058] It should be noted that the housing 100 may be a base or a lampshade, etc., forming the external structure of the vehicle lamp. In addition, the vehicle lamp may be a headlight, or a taillight, etc.

[0059] See also Figures 9 to 11 The present application provides a vehicle including any of the above-mentioned headlights. Since the above-mentioned headlights have the above-mentioned beneficial effects, the vehicle including the headlights has corresponding effects, which will not be described in detail here.

[0060] The vehicle includes a body 500 and a grille 400 mounted on the body 500. The headlight 100 is mounted on the grille 400 via a bracket 200. Specifically, the bracket 200 is provided with multiple clips that engage with the grille 400. For example, the upper edge of the bracket 200 is provided with a first clip, with a hole in the grille 400 corresponding to the first clip 250. The lower edge of the bracket 200 is provided with a second clip 260, with a protrusion in the grille 400 corresponding to the second clip 260.

[0061] There are multiple first clips 250 and second clips 260 , which are arranged along the length direction of the bracket 200 to improve the connection strength between the bracket and the grille.
