[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an ultra-thin vehicle logo light mainly includes a lamp housing 1, a PCBA 2, a light guide plate 3, a light-emitting mask 4 and a wiring harness 5.

[0021] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the light guide plate 3 is a plate-like structure, preferably made of transparent PMMA. One side of the light guide plate 3 is the light-emitting surface, and the other side has an optical pattern. Several positioning protrusions 31 are provided on the edge of the light-emitting surface of the light guide plate 3. The light guide plate 3 not only ensures uniform light emission but is also flexible to accommodate vehicle logo lights of different shapes.

[0022] like Figures 2 to 5As shown, a number of LED lamp beads 21 are integrated on PCBA2, and a PCBA2 is provided at each end of the light guide plate 3. The side edges of both ends of the light guide plate 3 are light-incoming surfaces, and the light-emitting surfaces of the LED lamp beads 21 on each PCBA2 are facing the corresponding light-incoming surfaces of the light guide plate 3. The light guide plate 3 adopts the method of taking in light from both ends, avoiding the high demand for the longitudinal space of the entire lamp by the direct projection method of LED. The LED lamp beads 21 on PCBA2 are arranged linearly along the extension direction of the light-incoming surface of the light guide plate 3. The number of LED lamp beads 21 can be increased or decreased according to the brightness requirements of the vehicle logo light. The PCBA2 located at both ends of the light guide plate 3 is connected by a wiring harness 5, and the wiring harness 5 is covered with a wire tube to protect the wiring harness 5.

[0023] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the lamp housing 1 is provided with an open slot 11, into which the PCBA 2 and light guide plate 3 are mounted. The shape of the open slot 11 is compatible with the PCBA 2 and light guide plate 3, resulting in a compact installation structure within the lamp housing 1 and a small overall footprint. The bottom of the open slot 11 is provided with several support protrusions 111, each of which supports a side surface of the light guide plate 3 near the bottom of the open slot 11. The support protrusions 111 not only position the light guide plate 3 but also provide space for the wiring harness 5 at the bottom of the open slot 11. In this embodiment, the support protrusions 111 are located near the bottom of the open slot 11 near the slot wall and are spaced apart along the length of the open slot 11, ensuring that the support protrusions 111 provide more stable and reliable support for the light guide plate 3. The slot wall of the open slot 11 is provided with several engaging protrusions 112, each corresponding to each positioning protrusion 31. Each positioning protrusion 31 engages with a corresponding engaging protrusion 112. The engaging protrusion 112 and the supporting protrusion 111 cooperate with each other to limit the position of the light guide plate 3 .

[0024] Furthermore, the lamp housing 1 is provided with several mounting lugs 14, each with a mounting hole, to facilitate installation of the lamp housing 1. The lamp housing 1 is provided with a wiring harness hole 12 for the wiring harness 5 to pass through. A plug is provided on the wiring harness hole 12, which has a through hole for the wiring harness 5 to pass through. The wiring harness 5 has an interference fit with the corresponding through hole, ensuring the sealing of the lamp housing 1. The lamp housing 1 is also provided with a vent hole 13, which is equipped with a breathable membrane to facilitate heat dissipation.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the luminous mask 4 is located on the side of the light guide plate 3 away from the lamp housing 1, and is snapped into the notch of the opening slot 11 of the lamp housing 1. The large surface of the luminous mask 4 close to the light guide plate 3 is its light-incoming surface, and the large surface of the light guide plate 3 facing the light-incoming surface of the luminous mask 4 is its light-emitting surface. The light-emitting surface of the light guide plate 3 faces the light-incoming surface of the luminous mask 4. A light-transmitting vehicle logo graphic 41 is provided on the luminous mask 4. In this embodiment, the luminous mask 4 is made of a milky white diffusion material, preferably a milky white PC diffusion plate. The luminous mask 4 and the vehicle logo graphic 41 are integrally formed. This ordinary single-color injection molding method is simple to mold, fast to mold, and has low mold and injection molding costs. In addition, the internal structure of the vehicle logo lamp cannot be seen through the luminous mask 4 when it is lit or not. The car logo graphic 41 is preferably protrudingly formed on the side surface of the light-emitting mask 4 away from the light guide plate 3, and a through hole adapted to the car logo graphic 41 is provided on the vehicle body B. The car logo graphic 41 passes through the corresponding through hole on the vehicle body B, making the three-dimensional effect of the car logo light better.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Under the guidance of the present invention, ordinary technicians in this field can make various similar expressions without violating the purpose and claims of the present invention. Such changes fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
