[0004] For example, Chinese invention patent application publication number CN115257570A discloses a tailgate trim and taillight mounting structure, comprising a taillight housing and a tailgate trim strip. The tailgate trim strip comprises a trim strip frame, which is connected to the taillight housing via a first clip and secured to the taillight housing via a first screw, with the first clip and the first screw spaced apart; and a bright strip, which is connected to the trim strip frame via a second clip and secured to the trim strip frame via a second screw, with the second clip and the second screw spaced apart. Because the tailgate trim strip comprises a separate trim strip frame and bright strip, the bright strip can be made as thin as possible to minimize deformation after electroplating. The trim strip frame is not limited by the cross-sectional dimensions of the bright strip and can be made thicker than the bright strip, enhancing structural strength and a sense of depth.

[0005] However, this existing structure still has the following shortcomings:

[0006] In this technical solution, the taillight housing is combined with the tailgate decorative strip to enhance the structural strength.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0028] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a lighting system integrating a through-type taillight, a switch and a vehicle logo is integrated, comprising: a taillight housing 1, which extends horizontally through the rear of the vehicle and is provided with a first through hole 11; an exterior light distribution mirror 2, which is fixedly assembled on the taillight housing 1 and is formed with a second through hole 21 corresponding to the first through hole 11; a tailgate styling switch 3, which is mounted on the taillight housing 1 and extends through the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 21, and the end of the tailgate styling switch 3 is exposed to the exterior light distribution mirror 2 through the second through hole 21; a first vehicle logo 41 and a second vehicle logo 42, the first vehicle logo 41 being provided on the exterior light distribution mirror 2, and the second vehicle logo 42 being provided on the tailgate styling switch 3.

[0029] In the present invention, the tailgate styling switch 3 is passed through the taillight housing 1 and the exterior light distribution mirror 2, and the first vehicle logo 41 and the second vehicle logo 42 are respectively adhered and fixed to the exterior light distribution mirror 2 and the tailgate styling switch 3. By pressing the second vehicle logo 42 to open the tailgate styling switch 3, the tailgate of the car can be opened. In this way, the three components of "tailgate switch, taillight and vehicle logo" are perfectly combined together in a limited space, which simplifies and beautifies the entire vehicle system, is easy to install, and is conducive to production management. The utility model can be promoted and applied to various models with through-type taillights.

[0030] The taillight housing 1 has a mounting area 12 formed therein. A reinforcement bracket 5 is provided within the mounting area 12 to increase strength. A controller 6 for controlling the tailgate styling switch 3 is mounted on the reinforcement bracket 5. A first wire 7 is connected between the controller 6 and the tailgate styling switch 3. Upon sensing a press, the tailgate styling switch 3 transmits a signal to the controller 6 via the first wire 7, which then activates the tailgate to open.

[0031] The reinforcing bracket 5 is formed with a receiving groove 51 for mounting the controller 6. The receiving groove 51 is provided with a mounting hole 52 for mounting the controller 6. Correspondingly, the controller 6 is provided with an elastic undercut 62. The reinforcing bracket 5 is also provided with a wiring hole 53 connecting the receiving groove 51 and the taillight housing 1. The first wire 7 is passed through the wiring hole 53. Here, since the taillight housing 1 has a first through hole 11 in the middle and the tailgate styling switch 3 is also installed in the middle, stress is concentrated in the middle of the taillight housing 1. To prevent the taillight housing 1 from cracking or even breaking after long-term use, a reinforcing bracket 5 is added there. It can effectively support the taillight housing 1, effectively strengthen its overall strength, and greatly improve its service life.

[0032] The tailgate styling switch 3 includes: a switch sealed shell 31 passing through the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 21, a micro switch 32 installed in the switch sealed shell 31, a transmission component 33 installed on the top of the switch sealed shell 31 and transmission connected to the micro switch 32, a pressing portion 34 provided on the transmission component 33, and a bottom cover 35 installed at the bottom of the switch sealed shell 31.

[0033] The pressing portion 34 is exposed to the exterior light distribution mirror 2 through the second through hole 21, and the second vehicle logo 42 is fixedly mounted on the pressing portion 34; the switch sealed shell 31 is mounted on the taillight housing 1 through the first mounting screw 36, and at least two first ears 311 are formed on the switch sealed shell 31, and correspondingly, at least two first screw holes 111 are formed on the taillight housing 1, and the first mounting screw 36 passes through the first ears 311 and is screwed into the first screw hole 111 to fix the tailgate styling switch 3 to the taillight housing 1.

[0034] A first cavity 9 is formed between the exterior mirror 2 and the taillight housing 1, and the tailgate styling switch 3 is disposed in the first cavity 9. The taillight housing 1 is provided with a plurality of drainage holes 15 for draining the water accumulated in the first cavity 9 to the outside, and the drainage holes 15 are located at the lower end of the taillight housing 1. Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, since the tailgate styling switch 3 needs to pass through the entire tailgate through-light, to ensure structural strength and prevent water accumulation within the cavity, the welding of the exterior mirror 2 and the taillight housing 1 creates a first cavity 9 (located in the center), as well as a second cavity 92 and a third cavity 93 (located on either side of the first cavity 9). These cavities are separated by welded ribs to ensure structural strength. Furthermore, taking advantage of the tendency of water to flow downwards, a drainage hole 15 is provided at the lower end of the taillight housing 1. If external liquid enters the first cavity 9 through the second through-hole 21, the drainage hole 15 can promptly drain the accumulated water within the first cavity 9, effectively preventing the adverse effects of water accumulation.

[0035] Several reinforcing ribs 25 are protruded from the exterior light distribution mirror 2 for limiting the tailgate shape switch 3 ; a first rubber pad 210 and a second rubber pad 220 are fixed to the upper and lower ends of the exterior light distribution mirror 2 respectively.

[0036] There are three reinforcing ribs 25, and the three reinforcing ribs 25 are distributed around the second through hole 21. When the tailgate shape switch 3 is installed, the switch sealing shell 31 passes through the first through hole 11 and is clamped between the three reinforcing ribs 25 to axially limit the tailgate shape switch 3. Figure 3 As shown, since the hot plate welding process is adopted between the exterior light distribution mirror 2 and the tail light housing 1, it is often necessary to adjust the gap and surface difference between the exterior light distribution mirror 2 and the tail light housing 1 during installation, and there will be relative errors. The tailgate styling switch 3 is fixed on the tail light housing 1. In order to ensure the gap and surface difference between the tailgate styling switch 3 and the exterior light distribution mirror 2, the exterior light distribution mirror 2 is protruded with three reinforcing ribs 25 to limit the tailgate styling switch 3, so that the fixing point tolerance of the tailgate styling switch 3 and the tail light housing 1 is correspondingly enlarged, so as to facilitate the control of the gap and surface difference between the tailgate styling switch 3 and the exterior light distribution mirror 2, ensuring perfect matching while facilitating installation.

[0037] The first rubber pad 210 is fixed to the upper end of the exterior light distribution mirror 2 with 3M adhesive and serves to cushion and protect the exterior light distribution mirror 2. The second rubber pad 220 is fixed to the lower end of the exterior light distribution mirror 2 with 3M adhesive and serves to cushion and protect the exterior light distribution mirror 2. Here, the first rubber pad 210 and the second rubber pad 220 are respectively fixed to the upper and lower ends of the exterior light distribution mirror 2 with 3M adhesive. The first rubber pad 210 and the second rubber pad 220 can effectively prevent the tailgate from cracking the upper and lower ends of the exterior light distribution mirror 2, providing a cushioning effect.

[0038] The exterior mirror 2 is integrally injection-molded from PMMA; the taillight housing 1 is integrally injection-molded from PC-ABS. The first vehicle logo 41 is attached to the exterior mirror 2 via 3M adhesive; the first vehicle logo 41 is also attached to the tailgate styling switch 3 via 3M adhesive. PMMA is a high-molecular polymer, also known as acrylic or organic glass, with advantages such as high transparency, low price, and ease of machining. In this embodiment, the exterior mirror 2 is injection-molded from three different colors of PMMA: black, transparent, and white. PC-ABS is a modified engineering plastic synthesized through mixing. Its main components are polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS). It combines the excellent heat resistance, transparency, and dimensional stability of PC with the high hardness, high impact resistance, and easy machining of ABS. Therefore, PC-ABS is widely used in automotive parts and other fields.

[0039] In summary, the present invention provides a tailgate styling switch 3 by inserting it into the taillight housing 1 and the exterior mirror 2, and by attaching the first and second vehicle logos 41 and 42 to the exterior mirror 2 and the tailgate styling switch 3, respectively. By pressing the second vehicle logo 42 to open the tailgate styling switch 3, the tailgate of the vehicle can be opened. This allows the three components of the tailgate switch, taillight, and vehicle logo to be perfectly integrated within a limited space. The gap between the tailgate styling switch 3 and the exterior mirror 2 is rationally considered, and while ensuring welding strength, the entire vehicle system is simplified and aesthetically pleasing. This design is easy to install, facilitates production management, and increases the space utilization of the entire vehicle. This design can be widely applied to various models with through-type taillights. Furthermore, compared to existing structures, the present invention also provides a drainage hole 15 on the taillight housing 1. When external liquid enters the first cavity 9 through the second through hole 21, the drainage hole 15 can promptly drain the accumulated water within the first cavity 9, effectively avoiding the adverse effects of the accumulated water.

[0040] Of course, the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made based on the structure, features and principles described in the scope of the patent application of the present invention should be included in the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
