Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle lights, and in particular to a vehicle light lens device. Background Technology
[0002] Most static bending lights on the market now illuminate by reflecting and refracting light through a reflector. When it is necessary to distribute the light to a certain area, multiple LED beads are usually set and the spacing between the LED beads needs to be designed to be relatively large. However, when the spacing between the beads is large, the efficiency of the left and right edges of the reflector is low, which will create dark areas when lit. Simply relying on the outer vertical stripes or the inner diaphragm cannot make the lighting uniform, resulting in a grainy lighting effect. Utility Model Content

The faceplate 1 and the rear shell 2 together form a receiving cavity; the lens unit 3 is disposed in the receiving cavity; the lens unit 3 includes a straight lens 4, a light-incident plate 5, a top plate 31, a bottom plate 32, and a side plate 6. The straight lens 4 includes a first arcuate protrusion 41, a second arcuate protrusion 42, and a third arcuate protrusion 43 that are arcuately convex in a direction away from the light-incident plate 5 and connected to each other, thereby forming a concave-convex undulating shape in the straight lens 4 laterally; the top plate 31 and the bottom plate 32 are parallel to each other. Perpendicular to the light-incident plate 5, the straight lens 4, the light-incident plate 5, the top plate 31, the bottom plate 32, and the side plate 6 together form the lens unit 3.
