[0039] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0040] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this embodiment provides an in-vehicle ambient lighting assembly. The assembly includes a housing body 1 and an illumination mechanism disposed within the housing body 1. The illumination mechanism includes a reflective unit 2, an inner lens 3, an illuminated unit 4, and a light-emitting unit 5. The reflective unit 2 has a reflective surface area 2011. The inner lens 3 has a direct light area and an indirect light area. The illuminated unit 4 has an illuminated surface 401. Light emitted from the light-emitting unit 5 can be reflected by the reflective surface area 2011. A portion of the light continues to pass through the direct light area and is emitted outward through the housing body 1, while another portion continues to pass through the indirect light area and is reflected by the illuminated surface 401, also emitting outward through the housing body 1. This arrangement, using a set of light-emitting units 5 in conjunction with the direct and indirect light areas on the inner lens 3, achieves the brightness distribution requirements of direct and indirect light, integrating direct and indirect light into a unified dynamic light emission, effectively reducing resource costs.
[0041] Optionally, the reflective surface area 2011 includes multiple reflective surface units located on the same curved surface.

This arrangement, with multiple LED light sources 501 connected in series to form a group of light-emitting units 5, effectively enhances the lighting effect, further optimizes the uniformity and aesthetics of the illumination brightness, and the multiple reflective surface units can also create multi-layered light and shadow effects, enhancing the three-dimensionality and atmosphere of the vehicle interior. At the same time, by distributing the LED light sources 501, the workload of individual LED light sources 501 can be reduced, the temperature can be lowered, and the service life of the LED light sources 501 can be extended. Furthermore, by controlling the brightness and color of different LED light sources 501, dynamic gradient and breathing lighting effects can be achieved, enhancing the sense of technology and luxury, and meeting the different definition requirements of direct and indirect ambient lighting. Furthermore, different lighting effects can be achieved by adjusting the angle and shape of the reflective surface unit to meet personalized needs.

Multiple LED light sources 501 correspond one-to-one with each of the receiving areas, and the LED light sources 501 are placed within the receiving areas. The connecting plate 202 is fixedly connected to the PCBA board 502. This arrangement, by separating the multiple LED light sources 501, further avoids mutual interference between adjacent LED light sources 501, improving the uniformity of light. Simultaneously, the connecting plate 202, supported and fixed on the PCBA board 502, effectively enhances the overall connection stability and reliability between the light-emitting unit 5 and the reflecting unit 2. It should be noted that the brightness ratio of direct light and indirect light can be achieved by adjusting the curvature of the reflecting bowl 201.
[0043] Furthermore, in order to improve the connection stability between the reflector bowl 201 and the connecting plate 202, the vehicle ambient light assembly also includes multiple reinforcing ribs, which are fixedly connected between the reflector bowl 201 and the connecting plate 202.
[0044] In this embodiment, the outer casing 1 includes a lamp housing 101 and an outer lens 102. The lamp housing 101 covers and is connected to the outer lens 102 to form a mounting cavity. The irradiation mechanism is disposed in the mounting cavity, and the outer lens 102 is used to emit light outward.
[0045] Optionally, to effectively improve the space utilization within the mounting cavity, the inner lens 3 is elongated, and both ends of the inner lens 3 along its length are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity, and the inner lens 3 surrounds the reflecting unit 2 and the light-emitting unit 5. Furthermore, the inner lens 3 is also provided with multiple protrusions, which are fixedly connected to the lamp housing 101.
[0046] Optionally, in order to enhance the connection stability of the reflector unit 2, the reflector bowl 201 is provided with a plurality of connection ends 6, and the plurality of connection ends 6 are fixedly connected to the lamp housing 101.
[0047] Optionally, to improve optical performance and enhance aesthetics and functionality, the outer lens 102 is manufactured using a two-color injection molding process.
[0048] Optionally, the light-emitting unit 5 is elongated.
[0049] Optionally, to meet the illumination intensity distribution requirements of direct and indirect light, the surface of the inner lens 3 is treated with a spray painting process, and both the direct light area and the indirect light area are laser-engraved. Furthermore, the laser-engraved area of the direct light area is smaller than that of the indirect light area. It should be noted that the laser-engraved areas of the direct light area and the indirect light area can be set according to actual needs, and no further restrictions are imposed here.
