Generally, the terms "comprising" and "including" only indicate the inclusion of expressly identified steps and elements, which do not constitute an exclusive list, and the method or apparatus may also include other steps or elements. An element defined by the phrase "comprising an..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, product, or apparatus that includes the element.
[0027] In the description of the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise stated, " / " means "or", for example, A / B can mean A or B; "and / or" in this document is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, and B existing alone. Furthermore, in the description of the embodiments of this application, "multiple" refers to two or more.
[0028] In related technologies, such as Figure 1As shown, the license plate light has a base assembly 01, a buckle 02, and a lampshade 03. The base assembly includes a base 011, a wiring harness 012, and a bulb 013. The wiring harness 012 is integrated on the base 01, and the bulb is connected to the wiring harness 012. There are two buckles 02, which are respectively engaged with the mounting holes of the tailgate sheet metal 04. The base 011 has a first ear plate corresponding to the positions of the two buckles 02, and the first ear plate has a first through hole. The lampshade 03 has a second ear plate corresponding to the positions of the two buckles 02, and the second ear plate has a second through hole. The buckles 02 have a third through hole. During installation, firstly, the two clips 02 are snapped into the mounting holes of the tailgate sheet metal 04. Then, the lamp cover 03 is placed on the bottom shell 011. The first through hole of the first ear plate of the bottom shell 011 corresponds to the second through hole of the second ear plate of the lamp cover 03. The screw passes through the second through hole, the first through hole and the third through hole in sequence and engages with the clips to realize the installation of the license plate light on the tailgate sheet metal 04.
[0029] In the related technology, the wiring harness 012 is integrated on the bottom shell 011. The bulb heats up during illumination, causing the gas inside the lamp cover 03 to expand. The lamp cover 03 needs to be provided with at least one vent hole, which makes the lamp cover 03 a non-sealed structure. When exposed to rain, heavy rain, or car washing, water can easily enter the license plate light, causing the bulb to malfunction.
[0030] like Figures 2-3 As shown, this solution discloses a license plate light, including a bulb wiring harness assembly and a lampshade base assembly. The bulb wiring harness assembly includes a bulb and a wiring harness 1, with the bulb connected to the wiring harness 1. The lampshade base assembly includes a clip 2, a lampshade 3, and a base 4. The clip 2 and the base 4 are integrally formed, and the lampshade 3 is sealed to the base 4. The base 4 has a mounting hole communicating with the inner cavity of the lampshade 3, and the wiring harness 1 is sealed to the base 4 through the mounting hole.
[0031] The license plate light disclosed in this solution has the buckle 2 and the bottom shell 4 integrally formed, which reduces the number of parts of the license plate light, reduces the assembly process of the license plate light, and improves production efficiency.
[0032] The license plate light disclosed in this solution integrates the clip 2, lamp cover 3, and base shell 4 into one unit, and the bulb and wiring harness 1 into one unit. During installation, only the bulb wiring harness assembly and the lamp cover base shell assembly need to be assembled, which reduces the assembly process of the license plate light and improves production efficiency.
[0033] No ventilation holes are provided on the lamp cover 3 of the lamp cover bottom shell assembly. The lamp cover 3 is sealed to the bottom shell 4, so external moisture cannot enter the lamp cover 3 through the lamp cover 3, which improves the waterproof sealing of the license plate light.
[0034] The bottom shell 4 has a mounting hole that communicates with the inner cavity of the lamp cover 3. The wiring harness 1 is plugged into the mounting hole. The gas that expands inside the lamp cover 3 is discharged through the gap between the wiring harness 1 and the mounting hole, which can also meet the ventilation requirements of the license plate light.
[0035] The ventilation gap between the wiring harness 1 and the mounting hole is located on the side of the license plate light near the tailgate sheet metal 6, and the gap is hidden in the position where the bottom shell 4 and the wiring harness 1 meet. This increases the difficulty for external moisture to enter the lamp cover 3 when passing through the rain line, during heavy rain or car washing, and can reduce the risk of license plate light failure to a certain extent.
[0036] There are several ways to seal the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4. The lampshade 3 and the base shell 4 can be directly sealed together, or a sealing structure can be set between the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4.
[0037] In embodiments where the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4 are directly sealed together, the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4 are welded together, or the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4 are bonded together, or the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4 are integrally formed.
[0038] In the embodiment where the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4 are connected by a sealing structure, the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4 are fastened together by bolts, and a sealing gasket is provided between the lampshade 3 and the base shell 4.
[0039] To further optimize the waterproof performance of the license plate light, this solution provides a waterproof cover 5 on the side of the bottom shell 4 away from the lamp cover 3. The waterproof cover 5 is set along the outer periphery of the mounting hole and can be fitted over the wiring harness 1. The waterproof cover 5 increases the difficulty for external moisture to enter the lamp cover 3 and extends the service life of the license plate light.
[0040] The waterproof cover 5 and the bottom shell 4 can be made of the same material or different materials.
[0041] In embodiments where the waterproof cover 5 and the bottom shell 4 are made of different materials, the waterproof cover 5 can be a flexible waterproof cover, such as a rubber cover.
[0042] In embodiments where the waterproof cover 5 and the bottom shell 4 are made of the same material, the waterproof cover 5 and the bottom shell 4 are made of plastic and are integrally formed or welded together.
[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, a groove is provided on the side of the bottom shell 4 away from the lamp cover 3, and the waterproof cover 5 is located in the groove. The end of the waterproof cover 5 away from the bottom shell 4 is flush with the side of the bottom shell 4 away from the lamp cover 3. After the bottom shell 4 is connected to the tailgate sheet metal 6, the side of the bottom shell 4 away from the lamp cover 3 can fit against the tailgate sheet metal 6, and the waterproof cover 5 will not affect the connection between the bottom shell 4 and the tailgate sheet metal 6.
[0044] There are several ways to connect the light bulb and the wiring harness 1. The light bulb and the wiring harness 1 can be connected by a plug, or by a screw thread, or by other means. No specific limitations are made here.
[0045] The bottom shell 4 has a guide ring, which protrudes from the side of the bottom shell 4 closest to the lamp cover 3. The lamp cover 3 is placed on the guide ring and is interference-fitted with the guide ring. The end face of the lamp cover 3 is welded to the bottom shell 4.
[0046] The lamp cover 3 is pre-installed on the bottom shell 4 via a guide ring, which facilitates the subsequent welding connection between the lamp cover 3 and the bottom shell 4.
[0047] The bottom shell 4 and the guide ring can be integrally formed or welded together.
[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, the clips 2 are located on both sides of the bottom shell 4 along the axial direction. The bottom shell 4 has ear plates corresponding to the positions of the clips 2, and the ear plates and clips 2 have first through holes. During installation, the lampshade bottom shell assembly is installed on the tailgate sheet metal 6 through the clips 2. The screw passes through the first through hole and connects with the clips 2. Then, the bulb wiring harness assembly is inserted and connected to the mounting hole of the bottom shell 4 through the mounting hole of the tailgate sheet metal 6 for the bulb wiring harness assembly to pass through.
[0049] The license plate light disclosed in this solution is an improvement upon the existing license plate light, achieving quality improvement without altering its structure, strength, or function. The license plate light disclosed in this solution features high integration, a simple assembly process, and is practically waterproof, significantly enhancing its performance and lifespan.
[0050] This solution also discloses a motor vehicle equipped with a license plate light, which is the license plate light described in any of the above solutions. Since the license plate light has the aforementioned technical effects, the motor vehicle equipped with this license plate light also has the same technical effects, and will not be elaborated further here.
[0051] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and an explanation of the technical principles employed, and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. The scope of this application is not limited to technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the above-described application concept. For example, technical solutions formed by substituting the above features with (but not limited to) technical features with similar functions disclosed in this application.
