Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive license plate light technology, specifically an automotive license plate light with a reversing image supplementary lighting function. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of automobiles and the expanding age range of users, driving safety has become paramount. To enhance user safety and convenience, and reduce the difficulty of vehicle control, more and more car models are equipped with safety driving systems such as 360° surround view cameras. In particular, reversing camera systems have become standard equipment in automotive safety assistance. Reversing camera systems provide more intuitive image information for assisted driving, reducing the risk of collisions caused by insufficient lighting or inadequate observation when parking.
[0003] However, in actual use, since the bolts for installing license plates cannot be disassembled without authorization, most license plate lights need to be fixed to the vehicle body. This necessitates drilling holes in the rear shell of the car during installation, which damages the strength of the car's outer shell. Furthermore, since the light source is installed inside the license plate light box, and the light penetrates the box to illuminate the license plate, the license plate is often directly mounted on the light box. In this case, most of the light is blocked by the license plate, preventing it from reaching the license plate directly. This results in the light being directed away from the license plate, providing insufficient illumination and a weak effect on the reversing camera's illumination. Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a license plate light with reversing camera illumination function to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a license plate light with a reversing camera supplementary lighting function, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] (II) Technical Solution
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a car license plate light with reversing image supplementary lighting function, including a mounting frame, with limiting holes on the left and right sides of the mounting frame, and L-shaped clamps on the left and right sides of the mounting frame, with limiting bolts installed on the side of the L-shaped clamps facing the limiting holes, and springs sleeved on the limiting bolts, with slots opened on the inner side of the rear side wall of the L-shaped clamps, and LED beads installed on the front sides of the upper and lower ends of the mounting frame, with diffuser covers on the front sides of the LED beads, and reflectors installed at the edges of the upper and lower ends of the mounting frame.
[0008] Preferably, the limiting bolt is slidably engaged with the limiting hole, one end of the spring is connected to the limiting bolt, and the other end of the spring is pressed against the inner wall of the end of the limiting hole. The L-shaped clamps on both sides of the mounting frame are pulled in a relatively distant direction. Then, the two ends of the license plate are aligned with the slots in the L-shaped clamps. After the L-shaped clamps are released, they retract and clamp the license plate under the return of the spring. This installation method is quick and convenient, and does not require drilling holes in the car body, reducing damage to the car body.
[0009] Preferably, the diffuser is fixedly connected to the mounting frame, and the diffuser is made of frosted acrylic sheet. The diffuser made of frosted acrylic sheet can diffuse the light source of the LED beads.
[0010] Preferably, the two reflectors are inclined. When the LED lights illuminate the ground behind the vehicle to supplement the reversing image, the reflectors can refract some of the diffused light to illuminate the license plate. This structure can illuminate the license plate while supplementing the reversing image.
[0011] Preferably, a cable is installed on the top of the mounting frame for connection to the vehicle's infotainment system, thereby enabling unified control and connection based on the light sensor unit in the vehicle's infotainment system to achieve the effect of lights turning off when it's light and turning on when it's dark, thus reducing the consumption of the car's battery.
[0012] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a car license plate light with reversing camera supplementary lighting function, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] Through design, the license plate light in this utility model consists of a mounting frame, an L-shaped clamp, LED beads, and a reflector. During installation, the L-shaped clamp is pulled away to align the two ends of the license plate with the slots within it. The L-shaped clamp then clamps and secures the license plate under spring-loaded return. This installation method eliminates the need for drilling into the car body, reducing damage. LED beads are installed at the top and bottom of the front of the mounting frame. When the LED beads illuminate the ground behind the vehicle to supplement the reversing image, the reflector refracts some of the diffused light emitted from the diffuser, illuminating both the reversing image and the license plate simultaneously. This solves the problem of the light being largely blocked by the license plate, preventing direct illumination and resulting in weak lighting for the reversing image. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] This utility model provides a technical solution: a license plate light with reversing camera supplementary lighting function. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 5 The mounting frame includes a mounting frame 1, with limiting holes 2 on the left and right sides. L-shaped clamps 4 are provided on the left and right sides of the mounting frame 1. A limiting bolt 5 is installed on the side of the L-shaped clamp 4 facing the limiting hole 2. A spring 3 is sleeved on the limiting bolt 5. A slot 6 is provided on the inner side of the rear side wall of the L-shaped clamp 4. LED beads 7 are installed on the front side of the upper and lower ends of the mounting frame 1. A diffuser cover 8 is provided on the front side of the LED beads 7. A reflector 9 is installed at the edges of the upper and lower ends of the mounting frame 1.
[0023] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5The limiting bolt 5 is slidably engaged with the limiting hole 2. One end of the spring 3 is connected to the limiting bolt 5, and the other end of the spring 3 is pressed against the inner wall of the end of the limiting hole 2. The L-shaped clamps 4 on both sides of the mounting frame 1 are pulled in a relatively distant direction. Then, the two ends of the license plate are aligned with the slots 6 in the L-shaped clamps 4. After the L-shaped clamps 4 are released, they retract and clamp the license plate under the reset of the spring 3. This installation method is quick and convenient, and does not require drilling holes in the car body, reducing the stress on the car body. To prevent damage, the diffuser 8 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 1. The diffuser 8 is made of frosted acrylic sheet. The diffuser 8 made of frosted acrylic sheet can diffuse the light source of LED beads 7. The two reflectors 9 are inclined. When LED beads 7 illuminate the ground behind to supplement the reversing image, some of the diffused light can be refracted by the reflectors 9 to illuminate the license plate. This structure can illuminate the license plate by refracting diffused light while supplementing the reversing image.
[0024] Please see Figure 1 The top of the mounting frame 1 is equipped with a cable 10, which can be used to connect to the vehicle's infotainment system. This allows for unified control and connection based on the light sensor unit in the vehicle's infotainment system, achieving the effect of lights turning off when it's light and turning on when it's dark, thus reducing the consumption of the vehicle's battery.
[0025] The license plate light in this utility model consists of a mounting frame 1, an L-shaped clamp 4, LED beads 7, and a reflector 9. Limiting holes 2 are provided on both sides of the mounting frame 1. A limiting bolt 5 is installed on the side of the L-shaped clamp 4 facing the limiting hole 2. The limiting bolt 5 is slidably engaged with the limiting hole 2. A spring 3 is sleeved around the limiting bolt 5. One end of the spring 3 is connected to the end of the limiting bolt 5, and the other end is pressed against the inner wall of the end of the limiting hole 2. A slot 6 is provided on the front side of the rear wall of the L-shaped clamp 4. The slot 6 is used to insert the license plate.
[0026] When installing the mounting frame 1, pull the L-shaped clamps 4 on both sides of the mounting frame 1 in a relatively far direction. Then, align the two ends of the license plate with the slots 6 inside the L-shaped clamps 4. After releasing the L-shaped clamps 4, the L-shaped clamps 4 will retract and clamp the license plate under the reset of the spring 3. This installation method is quick and convenient, and does not require drilling holes in the car body, reducing damage to the car body.
[0027] LED beads 7 are installed at the upper and lower ends of the front side of the mounting frame 1. A diffuser 8 is set in front of the LED beads 7. The diffuser 8 is made of frosted acrylic sheet. An inclined reflector 9 is installed at the upper and lower edges of the mounting frame 1. The refraction surface corresponding to the inclined surface of the reflector 9 is the car license plate itself. When the LED beads 7 illuminate the ground behind to supplement the reversing image, part of the diffused light can be refracted by the reflector 9 to illuminate the car license plate. This structure can illuminate the license plate while supplementing the reversing image. Therefore, it solves the problem that the light is mostly blocked by the car license plate and cannot be directly transmitted to the car license plate, resulting in the light backing the car license plate and failing to provide good illumination. The effect of supplementing the reversing image is also relatively weak.
[0028] A cable 10 is connected to the upper part of the mounting frame 1, which can be used to connect to the vehicle system, thereby enabling unified control connection based on the light sensor unit in the vehicle system, achieving the effect of lights turning off when it is bright and lights turning on when it is dark, and reducing the consumption of the car battery.
