[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0030] See Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a light-guiding through-type LED automobile rear position lamp with maximum illumination in the Y-direction area is provided, which comprises: a shell 1, which is formed with an inner cavity; an LED module 2, which is arranged in the inner cavity of the shell 1; a light-guiding bar 3, which is arranged in the inner cavity of the shell 1 and is used to reflect the light emitted by the LED module 2, and the light-guiding bar 3 is formed with a sawtooth reflective pattern 321 for uniformly refracting the light, and the light-guiding bar 3 is also formed with a light-emitting surface 301 for allowing the light to be emitted outward; a light-guiding bracket 4, which is arranged in the inner cavity of the shell 1 and is used to support and position the light-guiding bar 3; an inner light-distributing mirror 5, which abuts against the light-guiding bracket 4 and covers the outside of the light-emitting surface 301 of the light-guiding bar 3 to diffusely reflect the light; and a mask 6, which covers the shell 1 and covers the outer periphery of the inner light-distributing mirror 5.
[0031] In the present invention, the light guide strip 3 evenly refracts the light emitted by the LED module 2 through the sawtooth reflective pattern 321, and scatters the light outward through the light-emitting surface 301, so that the light can be diverged more widely and can well illuminate every corner of the inner light distribution mirror 5, thereby achieving the maximum Y-direction area of the rear position lamp illuminated with a minimum number of LED lamp beads 22, effectively enhancing the uniformity of the light, reducing costs and energy consumption, and improving resource utilization. The utility model can be promoted and applied to the rear position lamps of various models.
[0032] The housing 1 further includes a module bracket 7 for cooperating with the light guide bracket 4 to fix the light guide bar 3 . In addition, the LED module 2 is fixed to the module bracket 7 via at least two first locking bolts 81 .
[0033] The light guide bar 3 includes: a light guide section 31 that is covered on the outside of the LED lamp bead 22 of the LED module 2 and is used to guide light out; and a reflective section 32 that is integrally formed with the light guide section 31 and is used to uniformly refract light, wherein the reflective section 32 and the light guide section 31 are bent, and the length of the reflective section 32 is greater than that of the light guide section 31, and the sawtooth reflective pattern 321 is formed on the reflective section 32. Here, the light is totally reflected in the light guide bar 3. After reaching the sawtooth reflective pattern 321, the light is reflected by the sawtooth reflective pattern 321 and emitted out of the light guide bar 3, which can make the light diverge wider and can well illuminate every corner of the inner light distribution mirror 6. In addition, the inner and outer surfaces of the light distribution mirror 5 are formed with frosted leather texture. When the light passes through the light distribution mirror 5, it will be diffusely reflected before being emitted to the mask 6, thereby increasing the uniformity of its light.
[0034] The light guide bar 3 is integrally formed with a positioning portion 33 on the light guide section 31, and the positioning portion 33 is formed with a first positioning block 331 and a first positioning hole 332 for cooperating with the light guide bracket 4 for positioning. Correspondingly, the light guide bracket 4 is formed with a second positioning hole 431 that matches the first positioning block 331, and the light guide bracket 4 is also formed with a second positioning column 432 that matches the first positioning hole 332; the positioning portion 33 is also protruded with a convex pattern 330 for preventing the generation of bright spots; the positioning portion 33 is provided with a third positioning column 333 and a fourth positioning column 334 for positioning with the module bracket 7, and the positioning portion 33 is also provided with a fifth positioning column 335 and a sixth positioning column 336 for positioning with the LED module 2. Here, the convex pattern 330 is located on the outer surface of the positioning part 33 close to the lighting area of the LED lamp bead 22. The surface of the convex pattern 330 is composed of multiple curved surfaces, which can prevent stray light from being emitted outward to prevent bright spots from being generated on the surface of the positioning part 33, thereby ensuring the uniformity of its light.
[0035] The module bracket 7 is formed with a third positioning hole 733 for matching and positioning with the third positioning post 333, and the module bracket 7 is also formed with a fourth positioning hole 734 for matching and positioning with the fourth positioning post 334; the LED module 2 is formed with a fifth positioning hole 235 for matching with the fifth positioning post 335, and the LED module 2 is also formed with a sixth positioning hole 236 for matching with the sixth positioning post 336. Here, compared with the existing structure, the internal installation of the present utility model is more likely to use buckles and screws for fixing. The positioning method of the light guide bar 3 is mainly based on buckles, which effectively avoids the influence of complex assembly structure on the optical lighting effect and also improves assembly work efficiency.
[0036] A snap-fitting protrusion 72 for snapping with the light guide bracket 4 is protruding from the module bracket 7 , and a snap-fitting hole 42 for matching with the snap-fitting protrusion 72 is formed on the side wall of the light guide bracket 4 .
[0037] The inner light distribution mirror 5 is fixed to the light guide bracket 4 by a second screw 82 , wherein a screw column 51 is formed on the inner light distribution mirror 5 and a screw countersunk hole 451 is formed on the light guide bracket 4 . The second screw 82 passes through the screw countersunk hole 451 and is installed in the screw column 51 .
[0038] The light guide bracket 4 has a recessed groove 43 formed therein for supporting and positioning the light guide bar 3. This groove 43 also includes a retaining rib 430 for securing and retaining the light guide bar 3. After the first positioning block 331 and first positioning hole 332 of the light guide bar 3 are assembled with the light guide bracket 4, the reflective segment 32 of the light guide bar 3 is pressed into the groove 43 of the light guide bracket 4 until both sides of the light guide bar 3 engage the retaining rib 430, effectively securing the light guide bar 3 in place.
[0039] The LED module 2 includes an LED board 21 and LED lamp beads 22 mounted on the LED board 21. The LED board 21 is provided with at least two first through-holes 211 for the first locking bolts 81 to pass through. The module bracket 7 is provided with at least two first locking portions 711 for the first locking bolts 81 to be inserted and locked. Here, the first locking bolts 81 lock the LED module 2 and the module bracket 7 and also firmly press the light guide bar 3 between the LED module 2 and the module bracket 7, thereby improving structural stability and extending service life while preventing the complex assembly structure from affecting the optical lighting effect.
[0040] The longitudinal cross-section of the light guide bar 3 is fan-shaped; the light-emitting surface 301 includes multiple light-emitting sub-surfaces 3011; the mask 6 is sealed to the housing 1 via hot plate welding. Once all other components are assembled, the mask 6 is placed in the welding fixture and sealed to the housing 1 via hot plate welding. After annealing and cooling, assembly is complete. The longitudinal cross-section of the light guide bar 3 is defined as a radially oriented section of the light guide bar 3.
[0041] In summary, in the present invention, the light guide strip 3 evenly refracts the light emitted by the LED module 2 through the sawtooth reflective pattern 321, and scatters it outward through the light-emitting surface 301, so that the light can be dispersed more widely and can well illuminate every corner of the inner light distribution mirror 5. This achieves the maximum Y-direction area of the rear position lamp illuminated with a minimum number of LED lamp beads 22, effectively enhances the uniformity of the light, reduces costs and energy consumption, and improves resource utilization. It can be widely applied to the rear position lamps of various models. In addition, compared with the existing structure, the structure of the present invention adopts a fixing method of buckles and screws for internal installation. The positioning method of the light guide strip 3 is mainly based on buckles, which effectively avoids the influence of complex assembly structure on the optical lighting effect and also improves assembly work efficiency.
