[0002] A motorcycle LCD backlight is a lighting device installed behind the LCD instrument panel of a motorcycle. Its function is to provide a light source for the LCD instrument panel, ensuring that the displayed information can be clearly seen by the rider under various lighting conditions, especially in low-light environments. With this backlight, the rider can accurately read key information such as speed, RPM, and fuel level, ensuring riding safety and convenience. For example, when riding at night, without this backlight, the LCD instrument panel may be difficult to read due to insufficient light; with it, all kinds of information can be clearly displayed.

[0003] In existing technology, if the viewing window of a motorcycle's LCD instrument panel gets dirty with dust, moisture, or other stains, the driver needs to stop and manually clean it with a cloth or tissue. This not only interrupts the journey and wastes time, but in scenarios such as highways and areas with heavy traffic, temporary stops for cleaning may also lead to safety accidents such as rear-end collisions. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a backlight device for an LCD instrument panel on a motorcycle, to solve the problem in the background art where, if the viewing window of a motorcycle's LCD instrument panel becomes dirty with dust, moisture, or other stains, the driver needs to stop and manually clean it with a cloth, tissue, or other tools. This not only interrupts the journey and wastes time, but in scenarios such as highways and areas with heavy traffic, temporary stops for cleaning may also lead to safety accidents such as rear-end collisions.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a backlight device for a motorcycle LCD instrument panel, comprising an LCD instrument box and an observation window disposed inside the front side of the LCD instrument box;

[0006] Instrument codes are set on the left and right sides of the inner side of the observation window, and an instrument pointer is set in the middle of the two instrument codes;

[0007] A sliding plate is installed inside and outside the left end of the observation window. A thick fiber cloth is connected to the left side of the sliding plate, and a torsion spring is connected to the left end of the thick fiber cloth.

[0008] A movable rod is connected to the inner middle side of the torsion spring, and a fixed sleeve is provided at the bottom of the movable rod;

[0009] Pull ropes are connected to the upper and lower right ends of the skateboard. Upper and lower locking posts are respectively installed at the external connection points of the upper and lower ends of the two pull ropes and the observation window. Anti-detachment cone blocks are installed at the ends of the two pull ropes.

[0010] Preferably, a locking block is provided on the lower right side of the LCD instrument box, and two pull ropes pass through the locking block respectively. The outer diameter of the anti-detachment cone block is larger than the through hole through which the two pull ropes pass through the locking block.

[0011] Preferably, the two pull ropes are connected to the slide plate by stainless steel buckles and riveting, and the upper and lower ends of the slide plate are connected to the LCD instrument box by guide rails and damping pads.

[0012] Preferably, the slide can move left and right on the LCD instrument box. The two ends of the thick fiber wiping cloth are connected by a tie-on connection, a torsion spring, and the slide. The thick fiber wiping cloth has a composite structure, with an outer layer of microfiber and an inner layer of elastic sponge. The size of the wiping cloth extends to the upper and lower edges of the observation window, and the edges adopt an arc transition design.

[0013] Preferably, the movable rod is connected to the fixed sleeve via a movable connection, and the movable rod can rotate on the movable sleeve.

[0014] Preferably, the torsion spring is connected to the movable rod by an interference fit and an axial locating pin, and the fixed sleeve is located inside the left side of the instrument's LCD box and is fixed by bolts.

[0015] Preferably, an LCD backlight tube is provided on the top side of the LCD instrument box and is powered by an external power source.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a backlight device for a motorcycle LCD instrument panel, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. During driving, dust and fogging on the observation window can obstruct vision, affecting the driver's judgment of key parameters such as vehicle speed and fuel level. Traditional cleaning methods require stopping the vehicle, which not only delays the journey but may also pose safety hazards in emergencies. The innovative cleaning system allows the driver to complete the cleaning process by pulling a cord with one hand. The entire process does not require stopping, and the cord runs along the outside of the observation window without obstructing vision, ensuring uninterrupted driving and significantly improving driving safety.

[0018] 2. The system achieves automatic reset through the rebound force of the torsion spring. The driver only needs to pull the rope to complete the cleaning, and no additional operation is required after releasing it, which meets the needs of "one-handed operation and quick response" when riding a motorcycle. At the same time, the skateboard slides through the guide rail and damping pad, and the resistance is moderate when pulling, so it can be operated stably even on bumpy roads, reducing the driver's operating burden.

[0019] Furthermore, the thick fiber cleaning cloth features a composite structure design: the outer layer of ultra-fine fibers efficiently absorbs dust, while the inner layer of elastic sponge conforms to the curved surface of the observation window to wipe away moisture. The cloth's size covers the top and bottom edges of the observation window, and the rounded edge design prevents scratches on the glass during cleaning. Compared to traditional cloths or paper towels, this structure removes stains more thoroughly and safely, ensuring the observation window remains clear for extended periods.

[0025] 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.

[0026] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-4 The motorcycle LCD instrument backlight device shown includes an LCD instrument box 1 and an observation window 2 disposed inside the front side of the LCD instrument box 1.

[0027] Instrument codes 4 are set on the left and right sides of the inner side of the observation window 2, and instrument pointer 3 is set in the middle of the two instrument codes 4. An LCD lamp tube is set on the top of the upper side of the LCD instrument box 1 and is powered by an external power supply.

[0028] The observation window 2 has a sliding plate 5 inside and outside on the left end. A thick fiber wiping cloth 11 is connected to the left side of the sliding plate 5. A torsion spring 13 is connected to the left end of the thick fiber wiping cloth 11. A movable rod 14 is connected to the middle inner side of the torsion spring 13. A fixed sleeve 12 is provided at the bottom of the movable rod 14. Pull ropes 7 are connected to the upper and lower right sides of the sliding plate 5. Upper locking posts 8 and lower locking posts 9 are respectively installed at the connection points of the upper and lower right sides of the two pull ropes 7 and the upper and lower right sides of the observation window 2. Anti-detachment cone blocks 10 are respectively provided at the ends of the two pull ropes 7.

[0029] In this embodiment, the LCD instrument box 1 serves as the core supporting component, integrating the observation window 2, instrument code 4, instrument pointer 3, and LCD lamp tube to jointly realize the display and lighting functions of the motorcycle's driving status.

[0030] In use, the observation window 2 serves as a transparent viewing interface, allowing the driver to view the internal instrument bar 4 and instrument pointer 3. The instrument bar 4 indicates the scale range of key parameters such as speed, fuel level, and mileage, while the instrument pointer 3 rotates to point to the corresponding scale, providing real-time feedback on the motorcycle's current status. The LCD lamp on the top of the LCD instrument box 1 illuminates when connected to an external power source, evenly illuminating the instrument bar 4 and instrument pointer 3. Even at night or in low-light environments, the driver can clearly read the information, ensuring driving safety.

[0031] The LCD lamp provides basic lighting, the observation window 2 ensures clear visibility, and the combination of the instrument bar 4 and the instrument pointer 3 enables parameter visualization. Together, they form an information feedback system for the motorcycle's driving status, meeting the driver's need for real-time monitoring of vehicle operating data.

[0032] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a locking block 6 is provided on the lower right side of the LCD instrument box 1, and two pull ropes 7 pass through the locking block 6. The outer diameter of the anti-detachment cone block 10 is larger than the through hole through which the two pull ropes 7 pass through the locking block 6. The two pull ropes 7 are connected to the slide plate 5 by stainless steel buckles and riveting. The upper and lower ends of the slide plate 5 are connected to the LCD instrument box 1 by guide rails and damping pads. The slide plate 5 can move left and right on the LCD instrument box 1. The two ends of the thick fiber wiping cloth 11 are connected to the torsion spring 13 and the slide plate 5 by tie-connection. The thick fiber wiping cloth 11 is a composite structure with an outer layer of microfiber and an inner layer of elastic sponge. The size of the wiping cloth extends to the upper and lower edges of the observation window 2, and the edges adopt an arc transition design. The movable rod 14 is connected to the fixed sleeve 12 by a movable connection, and the movable rod 14 can rotate on the movable sleeve. The torsion spring 13 is connected to the movable rod 14 by interference fit and axial positioning pin. The fixed sleeve 12 is located inside the left side of the LCD instrument box 1 and is fixed by bolts.

[0033] Preferably, when dust, moisture, or other stains appear on the surface of the observation window 2, the driver can operate the pull rope 7 with one hand: pull the anti-detachment cone block 10 to the right, and the pull rope 7 will move the slide plate 5 to the right along the path defined by the upper locking post 8 and the lower locking post 9 (around the outside of the observation window 2). The upper and lower ends of the slide plate 5 slide smoothly in the LCD instrument box 1 through the guide rail and the damping pad. At the same time, the thick fiber cleaning cloth 11 connected on the left side moves to the right in sync with the slide plate 5. Its outer layer of ultra-fine fiber can absorb dust, and its inner layer of elastic sponge can wipe away moisture. Since the size of the cleaning cloth covers the upper and lower edges of the observation window 2 and the edges are arc transitioned, the surface of the observation window 2 can be thoroughly cleaned without scratching the glass.

[0034] After cleaning, release the pull rope 7. The torsion spring 13 (fixed to the movable rod 14 by an interference fit and axial positioning pin, the movable rod 14 can rotate within the fixed sleeve 12) generates a rebound force due to the previous tension, driving the thick fiber wiping cloth 11 and the sliding plate 5 to return to the left until they return to their initial positions. The locking block 6 restrains and limits the pull rope 7, and the anti-detachment cone block 10, because its outer diameter is larger than the through hole of the locking block 6, prevents the pull rope 7 from falling out of the device, ensuring the reliability of the entire cleaning process.

[0035] Preferably, the fixed sleeve 12 is fixed to the inside of the left side of the LCD instrument box 1 by bolts, providing stable support for the movable rod 14 and the torsion spring 13; the elastic potential energy of the torsion spring 13 is the power source for the reset of the slide plate 5, and its rigid connection with the movable rod 14 ensures the effective transmission of force; the slide plate 5, as the mounting carrier of the thick fiber wiping cloth 11, achieves smooth movement through the cooperation of the guide rail and the damping pad, and avoids the wiping cloth from shifting due to vibration during cleaning; the upper locking post 8, the lower locking post 9 and the locking block 6 jointly plan the movement path of the pull rope 7, ensuring that the pull rope 7 goes around the outside of the observation window 2 without obstructing the view; the anti-detachment cone block 10 prevents the pull rope 7 from detaching through its size design, ensuring the continuity of operation.

[0036] The entire system can complete the cleaning without stopping, solving the problem of not having time to clean the observation window 2 while driving, and improving driving safety and ease of operation.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
