In the description of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise specified and limited.

[0025] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected", "communicated", "connected" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or connected through an intermediate medium, or the internal communication of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0026] The inventor found through research that the reason why the decorative shell in the related art has the problem of uneven light emission brightness is that the light emitting side of the lamp in such decorative shell in the related art is directly towards the light emitting plate. Whether the light source in the lamp uses lamp beads or lamp strips, the part of the light emitting plate corresponding to the light source vertically will be brighter than other parts, which will cause the light emitting plate to have areas with different brightness when viewed from the outside of the decorative shell. Based on the above research findings, the present embodiment provides a decorative shell for a seat, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The decorative shell includes a shell body 1, a lamp, a light emitting plate 4 and a light reflecting layer 3. The shell body 1 is formed with a mounting groove 10, the mounting groove 10 has an open mouth, the lamp and the light reflecting layer 3 are arranged in the mounting groove 10, the light emitting plate 4 is arranged at the open mouth, the lamp and the light reflecting layer 3 are arranged in a spaced manner, and the light emitting side of the lamp faces the light reflecting layer 3.

[0027] The decorative shell provided in this embodiment directs the light-emitting side of the lamp toward the reflective layer 3, and utilizes the reflective layer 3 to reflect light to the light-emitting plate 4, so that light can be emitted evenly from the light-emitting plate 4, avoiding the formation of light and dark areas on the light-emitting plate 4, thereby improving the aesthetics of the decorative shell.

[0028] It is easy to understand that the distance between the light-emitting side of the lamp and the reflective layer 3 has a certain impact on the reflective effect. To achieve a better reflective effect, the distance between the light-emitting side of the lamp and the reflective layer 3 is designed to be 10 cm in this embodiment. Through experimental comparison, it is found that in other optional embodiments, the distance between the light-emitting side of the lamp and the reflective layer 3 can also be designed to be a selected value between 6 cm and 12 cm.

[0029] The lamp in this embodiment includes a lamp board 2 and a light source (not shown in the figure) electrically connected to the lamp board 2. Specifically, the light source in this embodiment is a lamp bead. In other optional embodiments, the light source can also be a light bar. The light-emitting side of the lamp in the above-mentioned "distance between the light-emitting side of the lamp and the reflective layer 3" refers to the surface of the light source facing the reflective layer 3. Figure 3 As shown in FIG, in this embodiment, a connecting member 5 is provided on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 10. The connecting member 5 extends through the reflective layer 3 into the mounting groove 10, and the light panel 2 is fixed to the connecting member 5. In this embodiment, the reflective layer 3 is tinfoil, which is simply adhered to the bottom wall of the mounting groove 10 using adhesive. In some alternative embodiments, the reflective layer 3 can also be a luminous glass plate or reflective cloth. The reflective layer 3 is provided with a perforation 30 compatible with the connecting member 5. The connecting member 5 extends through the perforation 30 in the reflective layer 3.

[0030] Furthermore, the connecting member 5 in this embodiment includes a first clamping plate 51, a second clamping plate 52, and a support plate 50 disposed between the first clamping plate 51 and the second clamping plate 52. The lamp board 2 is placed on the support plate 50 and is clamped between the first clamping plate 51 and the second clamping plate 52. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first clamping plate 51 is provided with a first clamping claw 510, and the second clamping plate 52 is provided with a second clamping claw 520. The first clamping claw 510 and the second clamping claw 520 cooperate to form a slot. The first clamping plate 51 and the second clamping plate 52 are configured to be able to be deformed relative to the housing 1 so that the lamp board 2 is clamped into the slot. Figure 3As shown in , in this embodiment, a first guide bevel 511 is formed on the first clamping claw 510, and a second guide bevel 521 is formed on the second clamping claw 520. The operator presses the light board 2 into the slot between the first clamping claw 510 and the second clamping claw 520. During the pressing process, the light board 2 applies pressure on the first guide bevel 511 on the first clamping claw 510 and the second guide bevel 521 on the second clamping claw 520. Under the pressure of the light board 2, the first clamping plate 51 and the second clamping plate 52 are deformed relative to the housing 1, causing the first clamping claw 510 and the second clamping claw 520 to move away from each other, thereby increasing the distance between the two, thereby allowing the light board 2 to be pressed into the slot. Afterwards, after the pressure of the light board 2 is released, the first clamping plate 51 and the second clamping plate 52 are deformed and restored to their original state, and the first clamping claw 510 and the second clamping claw 520 return to their original position, and the two clamp the light board 2 together. The shell 1 in this embodiment is made of plastic. It is easy to understand that since the plastic material has a certain elastic deformation ability, the first clamping plate 51 and the second clamping plate 52 can be deformed relative to the bottom wall of the installation groove 10 of the shell 1 under the action of external force.

[0031] To further enhance the stability of the lamp, in this embodiment, the light board 2 is also bonded to the support plate 50 with adhesive. Specifically, during assembly, adhesive is applied to the top end surface of the support plate 50, and the light board 2 is pressed between the first and second clamping plates 51, 52, until the light board 2 engages the groove formed by the first and second clamping claws 510, 520. At this point, the surface of the light board 2 facing the support plate 50 is bonded to the support plate 50 with adhesive. This ensures that the light board 2 is securely positioned on the connecting member 5.

[0032] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown in FIG, in this embodiment, a wiring hole 11 is provided on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 10. The lamp's cables are led out through the wiring hole 11 to the side of the housing 1 facing away from the light output plate 4. Furthermore, in this embodiment, a push-type switch 7 is provided on the side of the housing 1 where the light output plate 4 is located. The lamp's cables are led out through the wiring hole 11 to the side of the housing 1 facing away from the light output plate 4, and then to the push-type switch 7 for electrical connection. The operating principle of the push-type switch 7 is conventional and will not be further described here.

[0033] To facilitate assembly, the decorative shell provided in this embodiment further includes a cover shell 6 covering the open portion. A long hole is formed on the cover shell 6 to connect the cavity with the outside. The light emitting plate 4 is fixedly arranged in the long hole. The cover shell 6 can be fixed to the housing 1 by a snap-fit ​​structure. Figure 2As shown in , a snap-on piece 60 is provided on the cover 6, and a notch 100 is provided between the bottom wall of the mounting groove 10 and the sidewalls of the mounting groove 10. During assembly, the cover 6 is pressed into the mounting groove 10, so that the snap-on piece 60 snaps into the notch 100, thereby securing the cover 6 to the mounting groove 10 and sealing the opening. The light-emitting plate 4 is fixed to the elongated hole by adhesive bonding. Alternatively, grooves can be provided on both sidewalls of the elongated hole, and the two side edges of the light-emitting plate 4 are inserted and positioned in the grooves on the corresponding sides. The light-emitting plate 4 can be made of acrylic, PC, or copolyester.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in FIG, the mounting groove 10 of the decorative housing and the corresponding cover 6 in this embodiment are designed as a diamond-shaped trident structure. Five light panels 2 with light sources are arranged in the mounting groove 10. Connecting members 5 are provided on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 10 at positions corresponding to the two ends of each light panel 2. When arranged, the light panels 2 are at least partially staggered with the light output panel 4 in a direction perpendicular to the light panels 2 to ensure more uniform reflection of light onto the light output panel 4.

[0035] The decorative shell provided in this embodiment can be applied to a seat, and the seat includes a seat back. The decorative shell can be installed on the seat back. Specifically, the decorative shell can be fixed to the seat back by screws or a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above-mentioned implementation mode is only an optional embodiment of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and replacements made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
