[0039] According to the inventor, current vehicle trunk lights typically illuminate when the tailgate is opened to light up the trunk. However, existing trunk lights are mostly fixed inside the trunk and generally cannot be removed for use, or are cumbersome to remove, failing to promptly meet the user's lighting needs outside the vehicle or in other areas inside the vehicle.
[0040] To address the inconvenience of removing existing luggage lights, it is necessary to improve or optimize the existing technology.
[0041] Example 1
[0042] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2An embodiment of the first aspect of this utility model provides a trunk light. The trunk light 1 is detachably installed at a predetermined position on the trunk trim panel 2 of a car to meet the user's lighting needs in areas outside or inside the vehicle. It should be noted that the trunk trim panel 2 mentioned here can be a decorative plastic panel installed inside the trunk (rear compartment) of a car, typically made of aluminum alloy, ABS plastic, PC material, etc., which not only beautifies the interior of the car but also protects the items inside the trunk from direct damage from the external environment. Thus, when the tailgate of the car is opened and the trunk light 1 is turned on, the trunk light 1 can illuminate the trunk area; when lighting is needed in other areas, the user can use the trunk light 1 by removing it from the trunk trim panel 2, without needing to purchase additional chargers, wiring harnesses, lights, etc.
[0043] For example, such as Figures 3 to 8 As shown, the luggage light 1 includes a lamp housing 11 and a light-emitting module 12, wherein the light-emitting module 12 is installed inside the lamp housing 11. The lamp housing 11 includes a lamp housing body 111, a guide portion 112, and a connection port 113. The guide portion 112 and the connection port 113 are formed on the lamp housing body 111. Specifically, the guide portion 112 is formed on the lower outer surface of the lamp housing body 111 and extends in a predetermined direction. The connection port 113 is formed on the upper outer surface of the lamp housing body 111. The guide portion 112 guides the luggage light 1 to be detachably connected to the luggage trim panel 2 through the connection port 113. It is worth mentioning that, in order to allow the light emitted by the light-emitting module 12 to be emitted during operation, the lamp housing body 111 has a light-emitting surface 114. Preferably, the light-emitting surface 114 is made of a material with good light transmittance (such as silicate), which is beneficial for allowing the light emitted by the light-emitting module 12 to pass through the light-emitting surface 114 during operation, thereby achieving illumination.
[0044] In this first embodiment, the lamp housing body 111 is rectangular in shape and has a cavity for accommodating the light-emitting module 12. For ease of assembly, the lamp housing body 111 includes a lampshade 111a and a lamp holder 111b connected to or integrally formed with the lampshade 111a. Vertically, the lampshade 111a and the lamp holder 111b are arranged vertically, and the cavity is formed by the lampshade 111a and the lamp holder 111b. Specifically, the lampshade 111a has a first cavity 111c opening towards the lamp holder 111b, and the lamp holder 111b has a second cavity 111d opening towards the lampshade 111a. When the lampshade 111a and the lamp holder 111b are connected, the first cavity 111c and the second cavity 111d communicate to allow the light-emitting module 12 to be installed within the lamp housing body 111.
[0045] Furthermore, the guide portion 112 and the connecting port 113 can be formed on the lampshade 111a and / or the lamp holder 111b. That is, the guide portion 112 can be formed on the lampshade 111a or on the lamp holder 111b, and similarly, the connecting port 113 can be formed on the lampshade 111a or on the lamp holder 111b. The guide portion 112 and the connecting port 113 can be formed on the same structure or on separate structures. In this first embodiment, the guide portion 112 is formed at the lower edge of the lampshade 111a and extends circumferentially along the lampshade 111a, forming a flange. The connecting port 113 can be formed by a downward recess from the upper outer surface of the lampshade 111a. The light-emitting surface 114 is formed on the bottom surface of the lower part of the lamp holder 111b.
[0046] It is worth mentioning that, since the portion of the guide part 112 extending along the length of the lampshade 111a corresponds to and matches the pre-set guide groove 22 on the luggage compartment trim panel 2, the portion of the guide part 112 that engages with the guide groove 22 has a guiding function, that is, the portion of the guide part 112 extending along the length of the lampshade 111a; the portion of the guide part 112 extending along the width of the lampshade 111a has a limiting function, which helps to ensure that the connection port 113 is connected to the pre-set corresponding and matching connection structure on the luggage compartment trim panel 2. In this embodiment, the portion of the luggage compartment trim panel 2 that engages with the connection port 113 has a hook-like structure, such as a hook 23. Thus, when installing the luggage compartment light 1, the guide part 112 is first inserted into the guide groove 22, and then moved inward along the length of the guide groove 22. When the hook 23 engages with the connection port 113, it can be determined that the luggage compartment light 1 and the luggage compartment trim panel 2 are connected. When the trunk light 1 needs to be removed, first separate the latch 23 from the connector 113, then pull the trunk light 1 outward along the length of the guide groove 22. The trunk light 1 can then be removed from the preset position on the trunk trim panel 2 and used for lighting other areas (such as camping areas outside the vehicle). Compared to existing technologies, this invention achieves detachable installation of the trunk light 1 on the trunk trim panel 2 through a single connection point, offering convenient installation. Furthermore, the guide part 112 helps ensure the assembly accuracy between the trunk light 1 and the trunk trim panel 2 during installation.
[0047] Furthermore, to expand the application of the trunk light 1, the inventors have learned that the trunk light 1 also includes a suspension structure 13 pivotally connected to the lamp housing 11. The suspension structure 13 includes a pivot 131 and a hook 132. The pivot 131 passes through the lamp housing 11, and one end of the hook 132 is connected to or integrally formed with the pivot 131. Preferably, the hook 132 is rotatably connected to the lamp housing 11 via the pivot 131. In this first embodiment, one end of the lampshade 111a is provided with a pivot hole 117 corresponding to and matching the pivot 131 and the hook 132. The pivot 131 is rotatably connected in the pivot hole 117, and one end of the hook 132 is fixedly connected to the pivot 131. Thus, when the trunk light 1 is fixed to the vehicle and the hook 132 is opened, the hook 132 can provide a fixing point for the user to hang other objects, such as bags. Outdoors, the luggage light 1 can be easily hung on a camping tent or line using the hook 132, making it convenient for users to use the disassembled luggage light 1 as a camping light.
[0048] Furthermore, to save space, a clearance groove 118 is formed at one end of the lamp housing 11. A pivot hole 117 is formed on the sidewall of the clearance groove 118. For example... Figure 6 As shown, the suspension structure 13 has a first position (as shown by the dotted line) and a second position (as shown by the solid line). In the first position, the suspension structure 13 can be received in the clearance groove 118, while in the second position, the suspension structure 13 extends out of the clearance groove 118 by rotation, which also helps to solve the problem of damage caused by accidental contact between items inside the suitcase and the suitcase light 1.
[0049] Furthermore, to ensure the stability of the hook 132 at different positions, the lamp housing 11 includes a limiting portion 119. Specifically, the limiting portion 119 is formed at one end of the lamp cover 111a where a relief groove 118 is provided, and extends into the relief groove 118. For the purpose of mounting the pivot 131, a pivot hole 117 is also formed on the limiting portion 119. Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the end of the limiting portion 119 away from the lampshade 111a extends downward at an angle, and the pivot hole 117 is located at the end of the limiting portion 119 away from the lampshade 111a. Thus, when the hook 132 is in the second position, because the end of the hook 132 connected to the pivot 131 is confined between the limiting portion 119 and the lower sidewall of the clearance groove 118, the hook 132 cannot continue to rotate. Figure 6 The hook 132 shown rotates clockwise. When the hook 132 is in the first position, due to the limiting effect of the upper sidewall of the clearance groove 118, the end of the hook 132 away from the pivot 131 cannot continue to rotate, as shown. Figure 6The hook 132 shown rotates counterclockwise. This helps ensure that the suspension structure 13 maintains its corresponding position in the clearance slot 118 to meet the user's needs.
[0050] Furthermore, the lamp housing body 111 is provided with a socket 116, and the trunk light 1 also includes a charging socket 14 and a circuit board 15. The socket 116 is formed on the outer surface of one end of the lamp cover 111a. The charging socket 14 is installed in the socket 116, and the circuit board 15 is installed between the charging socket 14 and the light-emitting module 12, used to transmit and regulate the current input to the light-emitting module 12 via the charging socket 14. Preferably, the charging socket 14 is a connector compatible with charging and receiving vehicle control, such as a Type-C interface. Thus, when the charging socket 14 is connected to the vehicle's power supply or an external power source, it facilitates the supply of power to the light-emitting module 12.
[0051] Furthermore, to ensure timely illumination after the trunk light 1 is removed, the lamp housing body 111 is provided with a switch port 115. The light-emitting module 12 includes a light-emitting element 121, an energy storage battery 122, and a switch 123. The switch port 115 is formed on the upper outer surface of the lamp cover 111a. The switch 123 is installed in the switch port 115 and connects between the energy storage battery 122 and the light-emitting element 121, used to control the power supply to the light-emitting element 121. It is worth noting that the light-emitting element 121 can be an LED light panel, which can communicate with the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU) and can light up and turn off according to received message signals. The energy storage battery 122 can be a rechargeable battery, a solar cell, etc. The switch 123 can be a push-button switch that uses a button to push a transmission mechanism, causing the moving contact to connect or disconnect with the stationary contact, thus switching the circuit.
[0052] Furthermore, the luggage light 1 also includes a waterproof seal (not shown in the figure). Specifically, the seal can be an adhesive with a certain degree of bonding used to fill the gaps in the configuration to achieve a sealing effect, such as natural resin, synthetic resin, etc. Preferably, the seal is disposed between the charging socket 14 and the socket opening 116, and between the switch 123 and the switch opening 115. This helps to improve the safety of the luggage light 1.
[0053] Example 2
[0054] A second aspect of this utility model provides a luggage assembly including a luggage trim panel 2 and a luggage light 1 as described in Embodiment 1. The luggage light 1 is mounted on the luggage trim panel 2. Specifically, the luggage trim panel 2 includes a trim panel body 21, a guide groove 22, and a hook 23. The guide groove 22 is formed in the lower part of the trim panel body 21 and is adapted to the guide portion 112 of the luggage light 1. The hook 23 is formed in the upper part of the trim panel body 21 and is adapted to the connection port 113 of the luggage light 1. Thus, when the luggage light 1 is mounted on the luggage trim panel 2, the guide portion 112 is located in the guide groove 22, and the hook 23 engages with the connection port 113. This facilitates the flexible configuration of the luggage assembly.
[0055] Example 3
[0056] A third aspect of this utility model provides a vehicle that includes a luggage compartment assembly as described in Embodiment 2, giving the vehicle a superior user experience.
