Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle-matched lamp components, in particular to a lamp assembly. The utility model also relates to a vehicle using the lamp assembly. Background Art

[0002] In the current field of vehicle design, with users' increasing demand for headlight performance in recent years and the current vehicle structural design requiring smaller dimensions for both high and low beam headlights, how to strike a balance between smaller dimensions and stronger lighting performance is one of the current difficulties in headlight design.

[0003] Specifically, the design size of the lens opening of the headlights is constantly decreasing, especially the sizes in the Y and Z directions, that is, the sizes along the left and right directions and the up and down directions of the vehicle. The reduction in lens size will lead to a decrease in the lighting effect of the headlights, which in turn affects the overall optical performance of the headlights and has an adverse impact on lighting applications such as lighting and auxiliary indicators in daily vehicle use.

[0004] In this regard, at this stage, the industry usually chooses to adjust the design structure of the supporting headlights according to the different demands of the vehicle's main structure design, in order to meet the adaptation needs of different vehicles with different appearances and sizes.

[0005] However, although the above-mentioned existing headlight design method can meet the basic vehicle supporting application needs, it can only provide targeted structural design for the design requirements of a single working condition. If the basic structure of the vehicle is adjusted or it is necessary to meet the assembly application requirements of other vehicle models, the headlight structure and layout need to be redesigned, which leads to a corresponding increase in the related design and application costs of the headlight and even the vehicle.

[0006] In view of this, how to optimize the structural layout of vehicle lights, improve the adaptability of the lights to working conditions, and reduce the design and application costs accordingly are important technical issues that technical personnel in this field currently need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0007] The present invention aims to provide a vehicle lamp assembly having a flexible structural layout, which can improve its adaptability to various working conditions and reduce its design and application costs. Another object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle using the above-mentioned vehicle lamp assembly.

[0008] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a vehicle lamp assembly, including an outer lens assembly, a bracket assembly, an inner lens assembly, a lamp panel, a radiator assembly and an adjustment member.

[0009] The outer lens assembly, the inner lens assembly and the lamp panel are sequentially arranged in the space enclosed by the bracket assembly and the radiator assembly along the axial direction of the vehicle lamp assembly;

[0010] The adjusting member passes through the radiator assembly and cooperates with the bracket assembly. The distance between the outer lens assembly and the inner lens assembly is adjusted by adjusting the pre-tightening force between the adjusting member and the bracket assembly.

[0011] In some embodiments, the outer lens assembly includes an outer lens and a first clamping portion disposed around the outer lens, and the first clamping portion is clamped and engaged with the second clamping portion of the bracket assembly.

[0012] In some embodiments, the width of the first clamping portion along the front-to-back direction is smaller than the width of the second clamping portion along the front-to-back direction, and the outer wall of the first clamping portion and the inner wall of the second clamping portion can abut against each other along the front-to-back direction.

[0013] In some embodiments, the outer lens is a rectangular structure, a circular structure, or an elliptical structure.

[0014] In some embodiments, the bracket assembly includes a first bracket and a second bracket, the first bracket includes a first guide groove and a first clamping boss, and the first clamping boss protrudes from both sides of the first bracket;

[0015] The second bracket includes a second guide groove and a second clamping boss. The second clamping boss protrudes from both sides of the second bracket and is arranged one-to-one with the first clamping boss. The first clamping boss and the second clamping boss are clamped and disassembled by a clamping spring.

[0016] The first guide groove and the second guide groove form an installation space for accommodating the outer lens assembly; the second clamping portion is arranged on the inner wall of the first guide groove or the second guide groove.

[0017] In some embodiments, the heat sink assembly includes a heat sink and heat sink fins disposed on the heat sink;

[0018] The adjusting member passes through the heat dissipation plate and is threadedly connected to the positioning linkage hole of the bracket assembly to adjust the gap between the bracket assembly and the heat dissipation plate.

[0019] In some embodiments, the number of the adjusting members is two, the number of the positioning linkage holes is two, one positioning linkage hole is located on the first bracket, and the other positioning linkage hole is located on the second bracket.

[0020] In some embodiments, a reset member capable of driving the bracket assembly to move from front to back is further included between the bracket assembly and the heat sink.

[0021] In some embodiments, the outer lens assembly and the bracket assembly are the first platform component, and the inner lens assembly, the light board, the heat sink assembly and the adjustment component are the second platform component.

[0022] The present invention also provides a vehicle, comprising a vehicle body and a headlight assembly arranged on the vehicle body, wherein the headlight assembly is the headlight assembly as described in any one of the above items.

[0023] Compared with the above-mentioned background technology, the headlight assembly provided by the present invention, during its assembly and operation, after the headlight assembly is arranged correspondingly to the required installation position on the vehicle body, the outer lens assembly can be driven to move back and forth appropriately through the adjustment member to make the outer lens assembly appropriately away from or close to the inner lens assembly, thereby adjusting the distance between the outer lens assembly and the inner lens assembly. Since the light path of the headlight assembly is emitted from the light panel and then passes through the inner lens assembly and the outer lens assembly in sequence before irradiating to the space outside the vehicle body, after the distance between the outer lens assembly and the inner lens assembly is appropriately adjusted by the above-mentioned adjustment member, the lighting effects such as the lighting width, lighting height and corresponding effective lighting area after the coordinated processing of the inner lens assembly and the outer lens assembly can be adjusted accordingly, thereby meeting the vehicle lighting needs under different working conditions. After being fully assembled to the vehicle, the lamp assembly can still flexibly adjust its lighting effects based on actual operating conditions. Therefore, it can adapt to the vehicle's headlights, taillights, turn signals, and other types of lamps. It can also meet the installation and adaptation needs of a variety of different vehicle models and vehicle body layouts. It has strong adaptability to operating conditions and effectively adapts to various vehicle installation and lighting requirements. Furthermore, the lamp assembly of this solution eliminates the need to design matching lamps specifically for each vehicle model or lamp application, significantly reducing the vehicle's lamp design and application costs, significantly improving the modular design of vehicle accessories, and correspondingly reducing the vehicle's operating and subsequent maintenance costs.

[0024] In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, first clamping bosses are protruding from both sides of the first bracket, and second clamping bosses are protruding from both sides of the second bracket, aligned and positioned below the first clamping bosses. The first and second clamping bosses are aligned and clamped by a retaining spring, allowing for assembly and disassembly. The retaining spring is typically a universal component. This type of retaining spring has a simple and reliable structure, and uses an elastic clamping force to align and clamp the first and second clamping bosses, thereby achieving aligned and snap-fit ​​assembly of the first and second brackets, thereby securely clamping the outer lens between the first and second brackets. When the working condition needs to be adjusted or other necessary circumstances occur, if it is necessary to adjust the outer lens to achieve the purpose of adjusting the lighting effect generated by the headlight assembly, the retaining spring can be removed to separate the first bracket and the second bracket, so that the outer lens can be removed, and then the outer lens that can meet the current working condition needs can be aligned and assembled between the first bracket and the second bracket. At the same time, the first clamping boss and the second clamping boss are realigned and the two are reliably clamped and fitted together again using the retaining spring, thereby achieving reliable reassembly of the first bracket and the second bracket, and the newly replaced outer lens can be reliably assembled and fixed between the first bracket and the second bracket, ensuring the alignment adaptation and light path guiding effect of the outer lens and the inner lens, so as to meet the corresponding headlight lighting needs and working condition application needs.

[0047] The core of the present invention is to provide a headlight assembly, which has a flexible structural layout, can improve its adaptability to working conditions, and reduce its design and application costs; in addition, a vehicle using the above-mentioned headlight assembly is also provided.

[0048] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0049] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides a headlight assembly, including an outer lens assembly 1, a bracket assembly 2, an inner lens assembly 3, a lamp board 4, a radiator assembly 5 and an adjusting member 6. The outer lens assembly 1, the inner lens assembly 3 and the lamp board 4 are arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the headlight assembly in the space enclosed by the bracket assembly 2 and the radiator assembly 5; the adjusting member 6 passes through the radiator assembly 5 and cooperates with the bracket assembly 2. By adjusting the pre-tightening force between the adjusting member 6 and the bracket assembly 2, the distance between the outer lens assembly 1 and the inner lens assembly 3 is adjusted.

[0050] The headlight assembly provided by the present invention, during its assembly and operation, after the headlight assembly is arranged at the required installation position on the vehicle body, the outer lens assembly 1 can be driven to move back and forth appropriately by the adjusting member 6, so that the outer lens assembly 1 is appropriately away from or close to the inner lens assembly 3, thereby adjusting the distance between the outer lens assembly 1 and the inner lens assembly 3. Since the light path of the headlight assembly is emitted from the light panel 4 and then passes through the inner lens assembly 3 and the outer lens assembly 1 in sequence before irradiating to the space outside the vehicle body, after the distance between the outer lens assembly 1 and the inner lens assembly 3 is appropriately adjusted by the above-mentioned adjusting member 6, the lighting effects such as the lighting width, lighting height and corresponding effective lighting area after the coordinated processing of the inner lens assembly 3 and the outer lens assembly 1 can be adjusted accordingly, thereby meeting the vehicle lighting needs under different working conditions.

[0051] It is easy to understand that in the description of this solution, the forward direction refers to the direction in which the light of the headlight assembly is emitted, and the backward direction refers to the direction opposite to the direction in which the light of the headlight assembly is emitted. Figure 4 As shown, the front-to-back direction in this solution is the direction perpendicular to the paper as shown in the figure, the left-right direction in this solution is the left-right direction on the paper as shown in the figure, and the up-down direction in this solution is the up-down direction on the paper as shown in the figure. The rest of this document involving the front-to-back, left-right, and up-down directions can be understood in the same way as described here and will not be repeated here.

[0052] The outer lens assembly 1 includes an outer lens 11 and a first engaging portion 12 disposed around the outer lens 11. The first engaging portion 12 engages with the second engaging portion 222 of the bracket assembly 2. The width of the first engaging portion 12 along the front-to-back direction is smaller than the width of the second engaging portion 222 along the front-to-back direction, and the outer wall of the first engaging portion 12 and the inner wall of the second engaging portion 222 can abut against each other along the front-to-back direction. The inner lens assembly 3 includes an inner lens 31 and a mounting member 32 connected thereto. A fastener 43 passes through the mounting member 32 to mount the inner lens assembly 3 to the heat sink assembly 5.

[0053] The bracket assembly 2 of the present application may include a first bracket 21 and a second bracket 22. The first bracket 21 includes a first guide groove 211 and a first clamping boss 212, with the first clamping boss 212 protruding from both sides of the first bracket 21; the second bracket 22 includes a second guide groove 221 and a second clamping boss 223, with the second clamping boss 223 protruding from both sides of the second bracket 22 and arranged one-to-one with the first clamping boss 212; the first clamping boss 212 and the second clamping boss 223 are aligned and clamped by a retaining spring 23, allowing for assembly and disassembly; the first guide groove 211 and the second guide groove 221 form an installation space for accommodating the outer lens assembly 1; and the second clamping portion 222 is disposed on the inner wall of the first guide groove 211 or the second guide groove 221. In other examples, the bracket assembly 2 may also include three or four brackets, which are spliced ​​together to form a space for mounting the outer lens assembly 1.

[0054] When the working condition needs to be adjusted or other necessary circumstances occur, if it is necessary to adjust the lighting effect generated by the headlight assembly by adjusting the outer lens 11, the retaining spring 23 can be removed to separate the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22, so that the outer lens 11 can be removed, and then the outer lens 11 that can meet the current working condition needs can be aligned and assembled between the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22. At the same time, the first clamping boss 212 and the second clamping boss 223 are realigned and the two are reliably clamped and fitted together again using the retaining spring 23, thereby achieving the re-reliable assembly of the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22, and the newly replaced outer lens 11 can be reliably assembled and fixed between the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22, ensuring the alignment adaptation and light path guiding effect of the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31, so as to meet the corresponding headlight lighting needs and working condition application needs.

[0055] For example, if the headlight assembly is required to be used as a headlight, a spherical lens or other type of high-lens lens that can meet the lighting requirements of the headlight can be used as the outer lens 11 to be assembled between the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22 for matching use; if the headlight assembly is required to be used as an indicator light such as a taillight, brake light or turn signal that requires a large luminous area and warning effect, various types of lenses such as tinted lenses, variable curvature lenses or frosted lenses that can meet the requirements of the corresponding indicator lights can be used as the outer lens 11 to be assembled between the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22 for matching use; if the headlight assembly is required to be used as an indicator light such as a width indicator that has limited assembly space and smaller size requirements, a smaller lens can be used as the outer lens 11 to be assembled between the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22 for matching use.

[0056] Therefore, combined with the adjustment of the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31 by the adjustment member 6, the purpose of enabling the headlight assembly to meet the application requirements of various types of headlights is achieved, thereby greatly improving the working condition adaptability of the headlight assembly, and making the design and application costs of the vehicle-related headlights correspondingly reduced, and the design of vehicle-related lamps more flexible and efficient.

[0057] The function of the radiator assembly 5 is to dissipate heat for the lamp board 4. The radiator assembly 5 includes a heat sink 51 and heat dissipation fins 52 arranged on the heat sink 51; the adjustment member 6 passes through the heat sink 51 and is threadedly connected to the positioning linkage hole of the bracket assembly 2 to adjust the gap between the bracket assembly 2 and the heat sink 51.

[0058] In order to improve the heat transfer efficiency between the heat sink 51 and the lamp board 4 , a heat conductive adhesive 42 is further provided between the heat sink 51 and the lamp board 4 .

[0059] In some embodiments, there are two adjustment members 6 and two positioning linkage holes. One positioning linkage hole is located on the first bracket 21 and is the first positioning linkage hole 213; the other positioning linkage hole is located on the second bracket 22 and is the second positioning linkage hole 224. In some embodiments, a reset member is further included between the bracket assembly 2 and the heat sink 51 to drive the bracket assembly 2 from front to back.

[0060] It is not difficult to understand that due to the ability to adaptively adjust the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31, combined with the detachable and replaceable supporting structure of the outer lens 11, the headlight assembly provided in this solution can meet the application requirements of various supporting lamps for vehicles.

[0061] Specifically, the second bracket 22 is fixedly connected to the heat sink 51, and the outer lens 11 is linked to the first bracket 21. On this basis, the adjustment member 6 is threadedly adapted to the adjustment screw hole that runs through the upper portion of the heat sink 51 in the front-to-back direction. The threaded end of the adjustment member 6 protrudes from the front end surface of the heat sink 51 and abuts against the rear outer wall of the first bracket 21.

[0062] When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31, the adjusting member 6 can be screwed forward, and the adjusting member 6 can be moved forward axially through the threaded cooperation between the adjusting member 6 and the positioning linkage hole, so that the first bracket 21 can be pushed forward synchronously with the axial movement of the adjusting member 6 through the abutment between the front end of the adjusting member 6 and the first bracket 21, thereby driving the outer lens 11 linked to the first bracket 21 to move forward synchronously, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31, so as to meet the corresponding adjustment needs of the vehicle lighting effect.

[0063] The bottom of the outer lens 11 is embedded in the second guide groove 221 and slidably engages with the second guide groove 221. When adjusting the spacing between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31, the bottom of the outer lens 11 remains within the second guide groove 221. The extension of the second guide groove 221 in the front-to-back direction provides reliable guidance and positioning for the reciprocating movement of the outer lens 11, preventing it from becoming loose or misaligned in the left-to-right direction during its reciprocating motion. This ensures that the outer lens 11 maintains its front-to-back alignment with the inner lens 31 during position adjustment. This ensures that the light path and lighting output of the headlight assembly remain stable, thereby meeting the requirements for stable lighting during vehicle use.

[0064] On this basis, a second clamping portion 222 is recessed on the side wall of the second guide groove 221, and a first clamping portion 12 extending from top to bottom is protruded on the side of the outer lens 11. The first clamping portion 12 is inserted into the second clamping portion 222 in an aligned manner. The width of the first clamping portion 12 along the front-to-back direction is smaller than the width of the second clamping portion 222 along the front-to-back direction, and the outer wall of the first clamping portion 12 and the inner wall of the second clamping portion 222 can be offset against each other along the front-to-back direction.

[0065] When the outer lens 11 is aligned and installed between the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22 , the first clamping portion 12 is aligned and inserted into the second clamping portion 222 from top to bottom. When the outer lens 11 is adjusted in the front-to-back direction, as the outer lens 11 moves forward and backward along the second guide groove 221, the first clamping portion 12 also moves synchronously forward and backward in the second clamping portion 222. When the front outer wall of the first clamping portion 12 abuts against the front inner wall of the second clamping portion 222, the first clamping portion 12 can no longer move forward. At this time, the outer lens 11 can no longer move forward due to the linkage structure between the first clamping portion 12 and the outer lens 11, thereby limiting the front limit position of the outer lens 11 and preventing the outer lens 11 from moving forward excessively and becoming loose or dislocated. Similarly, when the rear outer wall of the first clamping portion 12 abuts against the rear outer wall of the second clamping portion 222, the first clamping portion 12 can no longer move backward. At this time, the outer lens 11 can no longer move backward due to the linkage structure between the first clamping portion 12 and the outer lens 11, thereby limiting the rear limit position of the outer lens 11.

[0066] Generally, the first engaging portion 12 can be a rod-shaped member or a block-shaped member protruding from the side of the outer lens 11. It can be integrally formed with the outer lens 11, or it can be integrally assembled to the main structure of the outer lens 11 by bonding or riveting. Furthermore, the end of the first engaging portion 12 connected to the outer lens 11 can be a rod-shaped structure extending in the front-to-back direction, while the free end of the first engaging portion 12 can be a rod-shaped structure bent downward to facilitate smoother insertion of the free end into the second engaging portion 222.

[0067] Correspondingly, the adjustment member 6 also includes a reset member capable of driving the first bracket 21 to move from front to back. The reset member can be a compression spring embedded between the front outer wall of the first clamping portion 12 and the front inner wall of the second clamping portion 222, or a tension spring connected between the rear outer wall of the first clamping portion 12 and the rear inner wall of the second clamping portion 222. Considering that the outer lampshade will be installed in front of the outer lens assembly 1 after the headlight assembly is installed, the reset member can also be a compression spring embedded between the inner wall of the outer lampshade and the front wall of the first bracket 21. In short, the specific assembly position and structural form of the reset member can be flexibly selected and adjusted according to actual working conditions and application requirements. In principle, the main purpose is to ensure stable reset drive for the reciprocating movement of the outer lens 11 in the front-to-back direction and meet the actual application needs of the headlight assembly.

[0068] In addition, a positioning linkage hole is recessed on the rear end surface of the first bracket 21, and the threaded end of the adjusting member 6 is inserted and abutted into the positioning linkage hole. Through the alignment and adaptation between the positioning linkage hole and the adjusting member 6, the inner circumferential wall of the positioning linkage hole can be used to form a circumferential structural limit for the threaded end of the adjusting member 6 and an axial motion guide, thereby ensuring the axial reciprocating tracking of the adjusting member 6. At the same time, the inner wall of the bottom of the positioning linkage hole serves as the axial abutment contact point with the threaded end of the adjusting member 6. This can effectively avoid adverse effects such as structural interference on the assembly structure of the first bracket 21 caused by the adjusting member 6 directly abutting against the main structure of the first bracket 21, optimize the stress distribution between the first bracket 21 and the adjusting member 6, and avoid structural imbalance or damage caused by local stress concentration in the first bracket 21. This improves the service life of the first bracket 21 and makes the component structure of the headlight assembly more durable and reliable.

[0069] It should be noted that no matter what component structure and operating method are used to achieve the corresponding adjustment of the position of the outer lens 11 by the adjusting member 6, the stable clamping and reliable fastening assembly of the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22 by the retaining spring 23 should be ensured. When necessary, it is only necessary to ensure that the driving force correspondingly achieved by the main operating components of each adjusting member 6 can overcome the relative friction between the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22 in the clamping state of the retaining spring 23, so as to achieve the purpose of driving the outer lens 11 to move back and forth to adjust the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31.

[0070] In addition, the second bracket 22 is detachably connected to the heat sink 51 via screws. The screws are simple and reliable, and their assembly and disassembly operations are also simple and easy. They not only ensure the assembly strength between the second bracket 22 and the heat sink 51, but also allow for flexible disassembly and assembly of the second bracket 22 and the heat sink 51 when necessary, further reducing the difficulty of installation and maintenance of the vehicle lamp assembly and improving operational efficiency and convenience.

[0071] It is not difficult to understand that in actual operation applications, the first bracket 21 can also be fixedly connected to the heat sink 51, and the outer lens 11 can be linked to the second bracket 22. The corresponding adjusting member 6 and other supporting action components and adaptive structures can also be arranged on the second bracket 22 accordingly. In this way, the adjusting member 6 can be used to drive the adjustment of the front and rear position of the second bracket 22 to realize the linkage adjustment of the front and rear position of the outer lens 11, so as to achieve the purpose of corresponding lighting effect adjustment and working condition matching.

[0072] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 The force analysis diagram of the headlight assembly is shown.

[0073] In the figure, the outer lens assembly 1 is connected to the heat sink assembly 5 through two adjusting parts 6. The connection between the two connecting parts generates X-direction horizontal forces Fx1 and Fx2. At the same time, the vertical force Fz is generated by the clamping spring 23 tightening the first bracket 21, the second bracket 22 and the outer lens 11. Since the outer lens 11 is in direct contact with the second bracket 22, there is a friction force f=u×Fz. If the sum of the screw force Fx1 and the screw force Fx2 is greater than the friction force f, the outer lens 11 can achieve X-direction movement.

[0074] During the actual production process, the horizontal forces Fx1 and Fx2 of the adjustment member 6 can be adjusted. Usually, Fx1 and Fx2 are related to the material of the product, such as the torque of a metal screw is greater than that of a plastic. In this example, the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 22 are both plastic, and the torque is 0.9Nm±0.2. If there is a light spot offset or Emax reduction during the assembly process, the product status can be corrected by adjusting the torque of the adjustment member 6, thereby meeting the design status and avoiding the scrapping of parts or products. At the same time, if other subsequent parts meet the product design status, such as the surface profile and dimensional tolerance of the inner lens 316 and the size and luminous flux of the light board 47, the gap x between the outer lens 11 and the second bracket 22 can be changed to precise positioning, such as x=0.05mm.

[0075] See also Figures 6 to 8 The outer lens 11 can be rectangular, circular or elliptical in shape. The outer surface of the outer lens 11 can also be flat or spherical.

[0076] Generally, the light board 4 is an LED light board 4. Of course, a halogen light board 4 or other light-emitting elements can also be selected according to actual working conditions, as long as they can ensure the operation of the vehicle light assembly to meet the lighting needs of the vehicle.

[0077] During assembly and operation, after the headlight assembly is arranged at the required installation position on the vehicle body, the outer lens 11 can be driven to move back and forth appropriately through the adjustment member 6 to make the outer lens 11 appropriately away from or close to the inner lens 31, thereby adjusting the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31. Since the light path of the headlight assembly is emitted from the light board 4 and then passes through the inner lens 31 and the outer lens 11 in sequence before irradiating to the space outside the vehicle body, after the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31 is appropriately adjusted by the above-mentioned adjustment member 6, the lighting effects such as the lighting width, lighting height and corresponding effective lighting area after the coordinated processing of the inner lens 31 and the outer lens 11 can be adjusted accordingly, thereby meeting the vehicle lighting needs under different working conditions.

[0078] In this way, after the headlight assembly is assembled to the vehicle body as a whole, the lighting effect can still be flexibly adjusted according to the actual working conditions. Therefore, it can adapt to the supporting application needs of the vehicle's headlights, taillights, turn signals and other types of lamps, and can meet the installation and adaptation needs of various different vehicle models and vehicle body structure layouts. It has a strong adaptability to working conditions and a good adaptation effect to various vehicle body installation and lighting needs.

[0079] In addition, after adopting the vehicle lamp assembly in this solution, there is no need to design matching lamps according to different types of vehicles or lamp uses, which greatly reduces the vehicle lamp design and application costs, significantly improves the modular design effect of vehicle accessories, and reduces the vehicle operation and subsequent maintenance costs accordingly.

[0080] See also Figure 9 In the headlight assembly of the present application, the size and appearance of the outer lens 11 are variable, and the functions of high and low beams and signal lights can be realized according to different customer needs; the above-mentioned headlight assembly can realize multiple light modes, such as high beam mode, low beam mode, and signal light mode. In the figure, (b) and (d) are low beam modes, and (a) and (c) are high beam modes; or in some examples, only (a), (c) or (b), (d) single low beam and single high beam functions are selected; or (a) is a combination of high beam, (b) is a low beam, and (c) and (d) are signal lights.

[0081] See also Figure 10 In the example of this application, the positioning of the outer lens 11 in the headlight assembly is extremely important. Due to the reduction in the size of the outer lens 11, higher positioning accuracy is required. For the high and low beam modules, especially the ADB module, the characteristics of small light spot and high brightness are crucial to the X-direction positioning requirements. If there is a large X-direction positioning deviation in the actual production process, it will lead to the deviation of the light spot and further lead to the deviation of the combined light pattern. The reduction in uniformity will further lead to a reduction in subjective perception. At the same time, the shift and reduction of the brightest point will lead to a reduction in lighting effect and the deviation of the irradiation position from the design state, affecting the optical performance.

[0082] See also Figures 11 to 13 , Figures 11 to 13 The light spot diagram after optical analysis at different offset positions is shown; Figure 11 For the original design state; Figure 12 The outer lens 11 is in the backward moving state, and in this example, X=-0.3mm; Figure 13 The outer lens 11 is in a forward-moving state, and in this example, X=0.3 mm.

[0083] The position of the light spot is affected whether the outer lens 11 moves forward or backward in the X direction. For example, when the outer lens 11 moves backward, the 1lux position on the left side of the light spot shifts from 7° to 7.8°, and when the outer lens 11 moves forward, it shifts to 6.8°. At the same time, whether the outer lens 11 moves backward or forward, Emax decreases, resulting in a decrease in optical performance.

[0084] See also Figures 14 and 15 The outer lens assembly 1 and the bracket assembly 2 are the first platform sub1, and the inner lens assembly 3, the lamp panel 4, the radiator assembly 5 and the adjustment member 6 are the second platform sub2. For this example, the installation and positioning scheme of the lamp assembly is as follows Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the second platform component sub2 is a platform structure. LEDs can be combined in different configurations based on the customer's optical and thermal requirements to achieve optimal optical performance and cost. The first platform component sub1 is the lens subassembly. v, u1, and u2 are precisely positioned, in this example, 0.05mm. The outer lens 11 is also widened in the X direction, in this example, x = 0.3mm.

[0085] The vehicle provided by the present invention includes a vehicle body and a headlight assembly mounted on the vehicle body, wherein the headlight assembly is as described above. The headlight assembly has a flexible structural layout, which can improve its adaptability to working conditions and reduce its design and application costs.

[0086] In summary, it can be seen that during the assembly and operation of the headlight assembly provided in the present invention, after the headlight assembly is arranged at the required installation position on the vehicle body, the outer lens 11 can be driven to move back and forth appropriately through the adjustment member 6 to make the outer lens 11 appropriately away from or close to the inner lens 31, thereby adjusting the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31. Since the light path of the headlight assembly is emitted from the light board 4 and then passes through the inner lens 31 and the outer lens 11 in sequence before irradiating to the space outside the vehicle body, after the distance between the outer lens 11 and the inner lens 31 is appropriately adjusted by the above-mentioned adjustment member 6, the lighting effects such as the lighting width, lighting height and corresponding effective lighting area after the coordinated processing of the inner lens 31 and the outer lens 11 can be adjusted accordingly, thereby meeting the vehicle lighting needs under different working conditions. After being fully assembled to the vehicle, the lamp assembly can still flexibly adjust its lighting effects based on actual operating conditions. Therefore, it can adapt to the vehicle's headlights, taillights, turn signals, and other types of lamps. It can also meet the installation and adaptation needs of a variety of different vehicle models and vehicle body layouts. It has strong adaptability to operating conditions and effectively adapts to various vehicle installation and lighting requirements. Furthermore, the lamp assembly of this solution eliminates the need to design matching lamps specifically for each vehicle model or lamp application, significantly reducing the vehicle's lamp design and application costs, significantly improving the modular design of vehicle accessories, and correspondingly reducing the vehicle's operating and subsequent maintenance costs.
