Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of vehicle-mounted rearview mirror technology, in particular to a backlight module installation structure for a vehicle-mounted rearview mirror. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, a vehicle rearview mirror includes a shell, a display screen and a backlight module. The shell includes a rear shell, which is provided with a receiving groove for installing the backlight module. The backlight module is arranged in the receiving groove. The backlight module includes a reflective film, a light guide plate, a diffusion film, a rear light-enhancing film, a front light-enhancing film and a DBEF film stacked in sequence from back to front. Due to structural requirements, the front end of the DBEF film needs to be flush with the notch of the receiving groove. Therefore, there is a structure that increases the thickness of the rear side wall of the rear shell. Under this structure, the weight of the rear shell is increased, and at the same time, the heat dissipation performance of the rear shell is reduced. There is also a structure that increases or decreases the thickness of the light guide plate. The cost of the light guide plate is relatively high. Under this structure, the production cost is increased.

[0003] Also, as the vehicle rearview mirror is in operation, the size of the light guide plate will change due to thermal expansion, squeezing the back shell on the side of the light guide plate, causing the light guide plate to deform and arch, and then squeezing the display screen, causing damage to the display screen. At the same time, the reflective film at the bottom of the light guide plate is easily affected by the heat of the lamp beads and wrinkles, which affects the display of the display screen.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a new technical solution to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
