[0028] A door panel middle plug-in cladding assembly with a changeable luminous pattern comprises a light-transmitting cladding assembly 1 and a light-transmitting mechanism 2, wherein the light-transmitting mechanism 2 is mounted on the light-transmitting cladding assembly 1.

[0029] The light-transmitting covering assembly 1 includes a light-transmitting surface 101 , a light-transmitting 3D Mesh 102 and a light-transmitting skeleton 103 .

[0030] The light transmission mechanism 2 includes a bracket 201 , a gear 202 , a motor 203 , a rack 204 , a light-shielding shaping plate 205 and a light source 206 .

[0031] In the transparent covering assembly 1, the transparent 3D mesh 102 and the transparent skeleton 103 are bonded and coated once with water-based glue. After the glue is dried, the transparent skin 101 is bonded and coated with the transparent 3D mesh 102 and the transparent skeleton 103 for a second time, with the transparent 3D mesh 102 between the transparent skin 101 and the transparent skeleton 103.

[0032] In the light transmission mechanism 2, the motor 203 is mounted on the bracket 201, and the gear 202 is mounted on the motor 203 and meshed with the rack 204. The light shielding molding plate 205 is connected to the rack 204 by screws. The light source board 206 is mounted on the bracket 201 by screws.

[0033] The light shielding plate 205 can be processed into different patterns through related etching processes. The motor 203 drives the gear 202 to rotate, and the rack 204 engaged with the gear 202 moves left and right. The light shielding plate 205 is driven by the rack 204 and moves synchronously.

[0034] The light from the light source panel 206 hits the movable light-shielding shaping plate 205 and is reflected on the transparent surface 101 through the hollowed-out portion, thereby realizing a change in the light-transmitting pattern on the surface of the transparent surface 101. The pattern can be changed quickly or slowly by adjusting the speed of the motor.
