[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to an optical lens, ambient light, door assembly, and vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] Ambient lighting for car doors is usually installed on the inside of the door or in the door storage compartment. It can create a personalized door environment by changing different colors, brightness and dynamic effects.
[0003] Existing ambient lights use optical components such as light conductors that uniformly reflect light, and prisms on the light conductors, also known as light guide teeth, to reflect light and create optical effects. However, the resulting optical effects are rather monotonous and cannot provide users with a high-end visual experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this application is to solve the aforementioned technical problems by providing an optical lens, ambient light, door assembly, and vehicle, thereby achieving a flowing, smoke-like visual effect in the ambient light and effectively enhancing the user experience. To achieve the above objective, the technical solution of this application is as follows:
[0005] In a first aspect, this application provides an optical lens, including a lens body, an incident surface and an exit surface disposed on opposite sides of the lens body, the incident surface and / or the exit surface being provided with a plurality of light-transmitting portions, the light-transmitting portions being convex toward the lens body and / or away from the lens body, and the light-transmitting portions having a tortuous surface.
[0006] In one possible implementation, the complex surface is a circular arc surface with discontinuous curvature, and adjacent complex surfaces have different structures.
[0007] In one possible implementation, the distance between any two adjacent light-transmitting portions is different.
[0008] Secondly, this application provides an ambient light, including a bracket, a light source module, and an optical module; both the light source module and the optical module are disposed within the bracket, the optical module is located on the light output path of the light source module, and the optical module includes at least two of the aforementioned optical lenses.
[0009] In one possible implementation, the optical module includes a first optical lens and a second optical lens arranged sequentially in the light-emitting path of the light source module. The light-transmitting part of the first optical lens is disposed on the incident surface of the first optical lens, and the light-transmitting part of the second optical lens is disposed on the exit surface of the second optical lens.
[0010] In one possible implementation, adjacent optical lenses are connected to form a lens cavity.
[0011] In one possible implementation, the bracket has a bracket groove, the light source module is disposed on the bottom wall of the bracket groove, and the optical module is disposed between two opposite side walls of the bracket groove.
[0012] In one possible implementation, the light source module includes a power supply unit and a light source unit; the light source unit is electrically connected to the power supply unit, and the light source units are spaced apart on the power supply unit along a first direction.

[0013] Thirdly, this application provides a door assembly including the aforementioned ambient light.
[0014] Fourthly, this application provides a vehicle including the aforementioned door assembly.
[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this application on the optical lens, ambient light, door assembly, and vehicle are mainly reflected in:

[0027] To make the technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the exemplary embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not an exhaustive list of all embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] This embodiment provides an optical lens applied to a lamp body. The lamp body can be used in any location within a vehicle, including on a car door. When the car door is opened or closed, or in specific environmental scenarios, the lamp body provides a better visual effect and can be referred to as an ambient light. By improving the optical lens within the ambient light, a more sophisticated visual effect is achieved, as detailed below.
[0030] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the optical lens includes a lens body 22, an incident surface 23 and an exit surface 24 disposed on opposite sides of the lens body 22. The incident surface 23 and / or the exit surface 24 are provided with a plurality of light-transmitting portions 25. The light-transmitting portions 25 are convex toward the lens body 22 and / or away from the lens body 22, and the light-transmitting portions 25 have a tortuous surface 26.
[0031] The incident surface 23 of the lens body 22 can be provided with a light-transmitting part 25, and the exit surface 24 of the lens body 22 can also be provided with a light-transmitting part 25. Specifically, both the incident surface 23 and the exit surface 24 of the lens body 22 are provided with light-transmitting parts 25, or the incident surface 23 of the lens body 22 is provided with a light-transmitting part 25 and the exit surface 24 of the lens body 22 is set as a plane; or the exit surface 24 of the lens body 22 is provided with a light-transmitting part 25 and the incident surface 23 of the lens body 22 is set as a plane. Since the light-transmitting part 25 is set in different positions on the lens body 22, different visual effects can be created on the optical lens by the injection of light.
[0032] The light-transmitting portions 25 protrude towards and / or away from the lens body 22. Specifically, the lens body 22 has multiple light-transmitting portions 25. All light-transmitting portions 25 can protrude towards the lens body 22, or all light-transmitting portions 25 can protrude away from the lens body 22; or some light-transmitting portions 25 can protrude towards the lens body 22, while others protrude away from the lens body 22. Different protrusion forms of the light-transmitting portions 25 on the lens body 22 can also bring different visual effects. Among them, the arrangement of some light-transmitting portions 25 protruding towards the lens body 22 and others protruding away from the lens body 22, so that the overall light-transmitting portions 25 form a concave-convex shape on the lens body 22, can present a more sophisticated visual effect.
[0033] Since the light-transmitting part 25 has a tortuous surface 26, which is a circular arc surface with discontinuous curvature, light entering the light-transmitting part 25 can be scattered at different angles at different positions on the tortuous surface 26, thereby creating a complex optical effect and presenting a visual effect like flowing smoke, effectively improving the user experience.
[0034] In one embodiment, adjacent tortuous surfaces 26 have different structures; the distance between any two adjacent light-transmitting portions 25 is different.
[0035] Since the light-transmitting parts 25 on the lens body 22 are in a free and disordered arrangement, the structures of any adjacent light-transmitting parts 25 can be different, which can be understood as different sizes; the spacing between any adjacent light-transmitting parts 25 can be different, and the optical axis direction of the toric surface 26 of each light-transmitting part 25 is different; when the light from each light source module 5 enters the optical lens, the light from each light source module 5 passes through different light-transmitting parts 25 in different directions, ultimately forming a smoke-like visual effect.
[0036] Example 2
[0037] This embodiment provides an ambient light, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, it includes a bracket 4, a light source module 5, and an optical module 1; both the light source module 5 and the optical module 1 are disposed within the bracket 4, and the optical module 1 is located on the light output path of the light source module 5. The optical module 1 includes at least two of the aforementioned optical lenses.
[0038] The optical module 1 includes at least two optical lenses. A single optical lens can only create a limited light effect. By setting two optical lenses, complex optical effects can be created.
[0039] In one embodiment, the optical module 1 includes a first optical lens 11 and a second optical lens 12. The first optical lens 11 and the second optical lens 12 are arranged sequentially on the light emission path of the light source module 5. The light-transmitting part 25 of the first optical lens 11 is disposed on the incident surface 23 of the first optical lens 11, and the light-transmitting part 25 of the second optical lens 12 is disposed on the exit surface 24 of the second optical lens 12.
[0040] For example, the light-transmitting portion 25 of the first optical lens 11 is disposed on the incident surface 23 of the first optical lens 11, and the exit surface 24 of the first optical lens 11 is set as a plane; the light-transmitting portion 25 of the second optical lens 12 is disposed on the exit surface 24 of the second optical lens 12, and the incident surface 23 of the second optical lens 12 is set as a plane. The first optical lens 11 is closer to the light source module 5 than the second optical lens 12, so that the light emitted by the light source module 5 passes sequentially through the light-transmitting portion 25 of the first optical lens 11, the plane of the first optical lens 11, the plane of the second optical lens 12, and the light-transmitting portion 25 of the second optical lens 12, and finally the light exits from the light-transmitting portion 25 of the second optical lens 12, forming a complex optical effect.
[0041] In one embodiment, adjacent optical lenses are connected to form a lens cavity 13.
[0042] The distance between adjacent optical lenses is 2mm-3mm. The lens cavity 13 allows light to be refracted again on the inner wall of the light-transmitting cavity, further enhancing the presentation of complex optical effects.
[0043] The optical lenses are injection molded from PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate). Adjacent optical lenses can be assembled into one piece by ultrasonic welding, which facilitates the assembly of adjacent optical lenses as a whole.
[0044] For example, the optical lens includes a lens body 22, and a first fixing part 31 and a second fixing part 32 are respectively provided at the top and bottom of the lens body 22. When the two optical lenses are assembled, the corresponding two first fixing parts 31 are connected to form the top wall of the lens cavity 13, the exit surface 24 of the first optical lens 11 forms the front side wall of the lens cavity 13, the corresponding two second fixing parts 32 are connected to form the bottom wall of the lens cavity 13, and the incident surface 23 of the second optical lens 12 forms the rear side wall of the lens cavity 13.
[0045] The first direction is defined by the length direction of the optical lens, the second direction by the width direction of the optical lens, and the third direction by the height direction of the optical lens. A first fixing part 31 and a second fixing part 32 are respectively provided at both ends of the lens body 22 along the third direction. The incident surface 23 and the exit surface 24 are located at both ends of the lens body 22 along the second direction. The light emission path of the light source module 5 is arranged along the second direction.
[0046] In one embodiment, the bracket 4 is provided with a bracket groove 41, the light source module 5 is disposed on the bottom wall of the bracket groove 41, and the optical module 1 is disposed between two opposite side walls of the bracket groove 41.
[0047] The optical module 1 is positioned at the opening of the bracket groove 41, which facilitates the installation and fixation of the optical module 1. A first mounting port 42 and a second mounting port 43 are provided on both side walls of the bracket groove 41. A first mounting part 33 is provided at the top and bottom of the lens body 22. The first mounting port 42 is a through hole located inside the side wall of the bracket groove 41. The first mounting part 33 has a hook and is movably engaged with the first mounting port 42. Specifically, the first mounting part 33 is positioned on the first fixing part 31 and the second fixing part 32, and the first mounting part 33 can be integrally injection molded with the lens body 22.
[0048] The top and bottom of the lens body 22 are respectively provided with a second mounting part 34. The second mounting port 43 is open and located at the edge of the side wall of the bracket groove 41. The second mounting part 34 and the second mounting port 43 move against each other. The second mounting part 34 has a limiting function to ensure the stability of the optical module 1 installed in the bracket groove 41 and to prevent shaking due to the active engagement of the first mounting part 33 and the second mounting port 43.
[0049] In one embodiment, the light source module 5 includes a power supply component 51 and a light source component 52; the light source component 52 is electrically connected to the power supply component 51, and the light source component 52 is spaced apart on the power supply component 51 along a first direction.
[0050] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the light source 52 includes a first light source 52a and a second light source 52b arranged sequentially along a first direction; the distance L1 between the first light source 52a and the second light source 52b is the same as the distance L2 from the first light source 52a to the optical module 1; the power supply 51 can be a straight plate structure; the optical module 1 can be a roughly arc-shaped structure, with unequal distances between any adjacent light source 52; or the optical module 1 can be a straight plate structure, with unequal distances between any adjacent light source 52, and the distance L1 between adjacent light source 52 is the same as the distance L2 from any light source 52 to the optical module 1.
[0051] The optical module 1 is adapted to the length of the bracket 4, which has a roughly rectangular structure. The power supply component 51 is installed on the bottom wall of the bracket groove 41, specifically by snapping the power supply component 51 into the bottom wall of the bracket groove 41. The optical module 1 and the light source module 5 are arranged at intervals along the second direction so that the light emitted by the light source module 5 can effectively pass through the optical module 1.
[0052] For example, the power supply component 51 can be a circuit board, and the light source component 52 can be an LED mounted on the circuit board. The power supply component 51 is led out from the bracket 4 through a wiring harness and then connected to an external power source. The distance between the light source component 52 and the optical module 1 is 7mm-13mm. By adaptively adjusting the distance between adjacent light source components 52, the desired optical effect can be achieved.
[0053] For example, the light emission center line of the light source 52 is the same straight line as the center line of the optical module 1 along the second direction, so that the light emitted by the light source 52 can effectively cover the incident surface 23 of the optical lens.
