Specifically, the use of the terms "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0037] In view of the problem that welcome lights on vehicles are easily damaged in related technologies, this application provides a welcome light and a vehicle.

[0038] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 6 The embodiments of this application will be described below.

[0039] For ease of expression, Figure 1 The directions shown are used to represent the X and Y directions of the vehicle, where the X direction is the length direction of the vehicle and the Y direction is the width direction of the vehicle.

[0040] Firstly, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this application embodiment provides a welcome light 8, including: a light panel 1 and a plurality of LED lights 2. Specifically, the light panel 1 is located between the front cover 7 of the vehicle and the windshield of the vehicle; the plurality of LED lights 2 are spaced apart and densely distributed on the light panel 1 along the X and Y directions of the vehicle; the LED lights 2 are provided with an encapsulation housing 201.

[0041] It should be noted that the light board 1 in this embodiment is a PCB board. In addition, in order to avoid the welcome light 8 increasing the resistance during the vehicle formation process, in a specific embodiment, the upper surface of the welcome light 8 is flush with the upper surface of the vehicle's front cover 7.

[0042] It should be further explained that by connecting the welcome light 8 in this embodiment to the vehicle's infotainment system, intelligent control of the welcome light 8 can be achieved. Users can control the welcome light 8 to display the patterns and text they want to express according to their personal needs. In this way, the human-computer interaction is diversified, and the functionality of the welcome light 8 and the user experience are enhanced.

[0043] The lamp panel 1 is arranged between the front cover 7 of the vehicle and the front windshield of the vehicle, which can reduce the probability of damage of the welcome light 8 caused by contact with objects around the vehicle during driving, reduce the maintenance and replacement frequency of the welcome light 8, and improve the durability of the welcome light 8. Secondly, the plurality of LED lamps 2 are arranged at intervals along the X direction and the Y direction of the vehicle, which can make the display quality of the welcome light 8 more delicate, improve the pattern display effect of the welcome light 8, and improve the seniority and user experience of the vehicle. Furthermore, by adopting the above scheme, the distance between the adjacent packaging shells 201 and the arrangement mode of the plurality of LED lamps can provide more pixel points for the welcome light 8, so that the welcome light 8 can present more colorful pattern and animation effects. In addition, arranging the LED lamp 2 in the packaging shell 201 can provide physical protection for the LED lamp 2 and reduce the invasion of external factors such as dust and moisture.

[0044] In addition, in order to reduce the preparation cost of the welcome light 8 of the utility model, the LED lamp 2 in the embodiment only needs to adopt a common LED lamp 2, and does not necessarily use a Mini LED (sub-millimeter light-emitting diode).

[0045] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 6 The shape of the LED lamp 2 is circular, and the distance between the center points of the two adjacent LED lamps 2 is 3.5mm to 4.5mm. It can be understood that the circular LED lamp 2 can make the light-emitting surface of the LED lamp 2 more uniform, and provide a more soft and uniform display effect for the welcome light 8. In this way, after arranging a plurality of such LED lamps 2 on the lamp panel 1 at appropriate intervals, a continuous and smooth display area can be formed, avoiding the phenomenon of light spots or dark areas caused by irregular shape or uneven spacing of the LED lamps 2, and improving the overall visual effect. Secondly, controlling the distance between the center points of the two adjacent LED lamps 2 to be between 3.5mm and 4.5mm can ensure the clarity of the display pattern of the welcome light 8 while ensuring the illumination brightness.

[0046] In a preferred embodiment, the distance between the center points of the two adjacent LED lamps 2 is 4.1mm. In this way, the consistency of the display effect of different areas can be ensured, and the power consumption of the welcome light 8 can be optimized, reducing unnecessary energy waste.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the packaging shell 201 of the LED lamp 2 is square, the distance between two adjacent packaging shells 201 on the lamp panel 1 is 1mm to 2mm, and the LED lamp 2 is located at the center position of the packaging shell 201. Compared with the circular packaging shell 201, the shape of the packaging shell 201 in this embodiment is set to square, which is beneficial to better installation space on the lamp panel 1, realizes high-density layout of the LED lamp on the lamp panel 1, and improves the pattern presentation effect of the welcome light. Secondly, the distance between the packaging shells of two adjacent LEDs on the lamp panel is controlled to be between 1mm and 2mm, which can make the display quality of the welcome light more delicate, improve the pattern display effect of the welcome light, and improve the seniority and user experience of the vehicle. Furthermore, the LED lamp 2 is arranged at the center position of the packaging shell 201, which can realize uniform distribution of light and ensure that a circular visual effect can be finally presented.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, the distance between two adjacent packaging shells 201 on the lamp panel 1 is 1.1mm.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 4 The number of lamp panels 1 is multiple, and the distance between adjacent lamp panels 1 is less than 1mm. It can be understood that since the length of the lamp panel 1 in this embodiment can be adapted to the width of the vehicle, if an integral molding process is used to produce the lamp panel 1, not only the production difficulty will be increased, but also the production cost in the early stage will be increased. Based on the above reasons, using a modular production method to produce the lamp panel 1 can not only reduce the production difficulty, but also simplify the complexity of the production mold. In addition, since the welcome light 8 is assembled by multiple lamp panels 1, the convenience of subsequent maintenance and replacement of the lamp panel 1 can also be improved. That is, compared with the integrally formed lamp panel 1, this embodiment only needs to replace one or several lamp panels 1 that have problems, without the need to replace the entire lamp panel 1. Furthermore, during the assembly of multiple lamp panels 1, the distance between adjacent lamp panels 1 is controlled to be within 1mm, which can ensure that the distance between two adjacent packaging shells 201 near the joint of two adjacent lamp panels 1 on the lamp panel 1 can also be within the range of 1mm to 2mm. In this way, the consistency of image display in different areas can be ensured, and the multiple lamp panels 1 can present the same visual effect as the integrally formed lamp panel 1.

[0050] In order to ensure the aesthetic appearance of the vehicle, in some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 The shape of the lamp panel 1 is adapted to the shape of the side of the front cover 7 close to the front windshield. In this way, not only can the appearance of the vehicle be more harmonious and consistent, but also the air resistance generated by the lamp panel 1 can be reduced, and the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle can be optimized.

[0051] It should be noted that since the front cover 7 is in the form of a transition arc on both sides of the vehicle width direction, the area of the lamp panel 1 close to the above-mentioned position also needs to be adjusted adaptively. However, in order to avoid affecting the imaging effect of the welcome light 8, as shown in Figure 4 , the LED lamp 2 on the lamp panel 1 does not need to be adjusted accordingly following the curved surface of the lamp panel 1, and can maintain the arrangement mode of being arranged in the X direction and the Y direction (horizontal and vertical) of the vehicle.

[0052] In order to enable the welcome light 8 to present a colorful pattern, in some embodiments of the present application, the LED lamp 2 is an RGB LED lamp bead. It should be noted that the RGB LED lamp bead in the present embodiment is a light source composed of red, green and blue LED chips, so that through three basic colors of light, the welcome light 8 can present a rich and colorful pattern and color, enhancing the visual effect of the welcome light.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 2 , the welcome light further comprises a lamp cover 3 and a lamp holder 4, the lamp panel 1 and the packaging shell 201 are installed in the lamp holder 4, and the lamp cover 3 covers and seals the lamp holder 4. By arranging the lamp holder 4 outside the lamp panel 1 and the packaging shell 201, the welcome light 8 can be stably installed between the front cover 7 and the front windshield, reducing the risk of displacement or damage of the welcome light 8 due to vibration or external impact. In addition, by arranging the lamp cover 3 outside the lamp panel 1 and the packaging shell 201, a physical protection structure for the internal structure of the welcome light 8 can be formed, reducing the probability of invasion of external factors such as dust and moisture. Further, in order to improve the sealing effect between the lamp cover 3 and the lamp holder 4, a sealing glue or a sealing ring can be arranged at the connecting gap between the lamp cover 3 and the lamp holder 4.

[0054] It should be noted that the material of the lamp cover 3 in the present embodiment can be a PC plate (polycarbonate plate).

[0055] In order to reduce the sense of strangeness of the welcome light 8 in the non-working state, in some embodiments of the present application, the color of the side surface of the lamp panel 1 on which the LED lamp 2 is installed is black, and / or the color of the lamp cover 3 is gray and the light transmittance of the lamp cover 3 is 5% to 12%. In this way, the welcome light 8 can maintain the same color as the front cover 7 of the vehicle in the non-working state, that is, the visual effect of "one body black" is achieved, reducing the visual incoordination.

[0056] In a preferred embodiment, the light transmittance of the lamp cover 3 is 7.5%. It can be understood that in order to ensure the visual effect of the welcome light 8 in the working state, when the light transmittance of the lamp cover 3 is lower, the luminous flux of the LED lamp 2 on the lamp panel 1 needs to be adjusted adaptively.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, the distance between the packaging shell 201 and the lampshade 3 is 5-10 mm. It can be understood that controlling the distance between the packaging shell 201 and the lampshade 3 to be between 5-10 mm can not only ensure the integrity of the welcome light 8 light effect, but also make the overall thickness of the welcome light 8 more compact, so as to not only reduce the wind resistance generated during vehicle driving, but also reduce the visual sense of strangeness.

[0058] In a preferred embodiment, the distance between the packaging shell 201 and the lampshade 3 is 7.5 mm.

[0059] In order to realize independent control of the plurality of LED lights 2 on the lamp panel 1, in some embodiments not shown, the welcome light further comprises a lamp panel support 5 and a PCB driving board 6 arranged on the lamp panel support 5. Specifically, the lamp panel support 5 is arranged in the space surrounded by the lampshade 3 and the lamp holder 4 and is adapted to mount and fix the lamp panel 1, and the positive and negative electrodes of each LED on the lamp panel 1 are respectively connected to the output pin of the PCB driving board 6. When the row scanning chip and the column scanning chip on the PCB driving board 6 are turned on at the same time, the corresponding LED light 2 on the lamp panel 1 will be lit. Further, by dynamically lighting different LED lights 2, the welcome light 8 will present different dynamic patterns.

[0060] In a second aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide a vehicle, comprising a front cover 7, a front windshield and the above-mentioned welcome light 8. Specifically, the lamp panel 1 in the above-mentioned welcome light 8 is located on the warm air pressure trim panel between the front cover 7 and the front windshield.

[0061] The vehicle provided by the embodiments of the present application sets the above-mentioned welcome light 8 between the front cover 7 and the front windshield, which can not only reduce the probability of damage of the welcome light 8 caused by contact with objects around the vehicle during driving, reduce the frequency of maintenance and replacement, and improve the durability of the welcome light 8, but also can enhance the attractiveness of the appearance of the vehicle and improve the sense of technology and luxury of the vehicle. In addition, since the LED arrangement in the above-mentioned welcome light 8 is relatively dense, the vehicle can provide users with exquisite patterns or animation effects, and optimize the viewing experience of users.

[0062] It should be noted that the vehicle in the present application can refer to large cars, small cars, special purpose cars, etc. For example, according to the vehicle type, the car in the present application can be a sedan type, an off-road type, a multi-purpose (Multi-Purpose Vehicles, MPV) type or other types. For vehicles, generally, wheels, power sources, and transmission systems arranged between the wheels and the power sources are provided, and the transmission system can transmit power provided by the power source to the wheels to drive the wheels to rotate, thereby driving the vehicle to travel.

[0063] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the type of the power source of the vehicle is not limited. For example, for a fuel vehicle, the power source can refer to a gasoline engine, a diesel engine or the like fuel engine; for an electric vehicle, the power source can refer to an electric motor; for a hybrid vehicle, the power source can refer to an engine or an electric motor; and for a vehicle powered in other ways, the power source can refer to a device for generating power.
