Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive LED strip mounting technology, specifically an automatic mounting device for automotive roof LED strips. Background Technology
[0002] Car roof lights are devices installed inside vehicles for lighting purposes, enabling illumination of the interior in low-light environments. With societal development, RGB LED lights have also emerged to create ambient lighting within the vehicle, enhancing aesthetics and comfort. Therefore, it is necessary to install LED light strips on the car roof.
[0003] In existing technologies, LED light strip installation typically involves manual hand-holding of the LED light strip, using hot melt adhesive or double-sided tape to attach it to the edge of the car roof. Since the car roof is not a flat structure but a curved surface, manual installation can lead to misalignment due to the long installation length and the flexible nature of the LED light strip, affecting the aesthetics and alignment of the installation. Therefore, we propose an automated LED light strip installation device for automotive roof lights to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

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] Example 1
[0027] Reference Figure 1 , 2 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides an automatic LED strip mounting device for automotive roof lights, including a guide rail 1. A movable seat 5 is slidably attached to one side of the guide rail 1. A small motor 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the movable seat 5. The output shaft of the small motor 4 rotates through the movable seat 5 and is fixedly connected to a gear 6. The gear 6 meshes with a rack 3, and the rack 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the guide rail 1.
[0028] The end of the movable seat 5 away from the guide rail 1 is fixedly connected to the clamping component 7. The end of the clamping component 7 is fixedly connected to the pressing seat 11. The other end of the clamping component 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting frame 8. The other end of the mounting frame 8 is clamped to the support shaft 9. The support shaft 9 is rotatably sleeved with the I-beam wheel 10. The I-beam wheel 10 is movably disposed inside the mounting frame 8.
[0029] Example 2
[0030] Reference Figure 1-6 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment. Specifically, the guide rail 1 has an I-shaped structure. Limiting blocks 101 are fixedly connected to both ends of the guide rail 1. The setting of the limiting blocks 101 limits the movable seat 5 and prevents the movable seat 5 from falling off.
[0031] Specifically, a magnetic strip 2 is fixedly connected to one end of the guide rail 1. The guide rail 1 is magnetically attached to the roof of the vehicle through the magnetic strip 2. The guide rail 1 is flush with the length direction of the mounting position. At the same time, the guide rail 1 can be set into a curved or straight structure according to the distribution of the mounting direction, so as to match the mounting position.
[0032] Specifically, the output shaft of the small motor 4 is rotatably sleeved with a support wheel 41. The support wheel 41 is movably disposed between the movable seat 5 and the outer wall of the guide rail 1, and the support wheel 41 slides against one side wall of the guide rail 1.
[0033] Specifically, two guide wheels 51 are rotatably mounted on the end of the movable seat 5 away from the small motor 4. The two guide wheels 51 are rotatably positioned between the movable seat 5 and the outer wall of the guide rail 1. The two guide wheels 51 slide against one side wall of the guide rail 1. The two guide wheels 51 cooperate with the support wheel 41 to support and limit the movement of the movable seat 5.
[0034] Specifically, the clamping assembly 7 includes a support base 71, a movable rod 72, a limiting frame 73, and a spring 74. The support base 71 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the movable base 5. The movable rod 72 is slidably sleeved inside the support base 71. The limiting frame 73 is fixedly sleeved in the middle of the movable rod 72. The limiting frame 73 is slidably disposed inside the support base 71. One end of the limiting frame 73 is fixedly connected to one end of the spring 74. The other end of the spring 74 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support base 71. One end of the movable rod 72 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 8. The other end of the movable rod 72 is fixedly connected to the clamping seat 11.
[0035] Specifically, one end of the mounting bracket 8 has a bayonet 81, and elastic clips 82 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of both sides of the bayonet 81. The two sides of the support shaft 9 are inserted into the bayonet 81, and the two sides of the support shaft 9 are engaged by the elastic clips 82 to limit and fix the support shaft 9 and prevent the support shaft 9 from disengaging from the bayonet 81. At the same time, threaded holes can be opened at both ends of the support shaft 9, and threaded knobs can be installed in the threaded holes. The outer diameter of the threaded knobs is larger than the diameter of the holes in the bayonet 81 to prevent the support shaft 9 from moving laterally.
[0036] Specifically, both the mounting bracket 8 and the clamping seat 11 are U-shaped structures. A clamping roller 111 is rotatably mounted on the bottom side of one side of the clamping seat 11, and a guide roller 112 is rotatably mounted on the top side of the other side.
[0037] The working principle and process are as follows: Before mounting, the support shaft 9 is fitted with a bobbin 10. The LED strip to be mounted is wound inside the bobbin 10. The end of the LED strip is inserted into the clamping seat 11. First, as shown... Figure 6The LED strip passes from right to left between the top of the guide roller 112 and the top wall of the pressing seat 11, and then through the bottom of the pressing roller 111. The LED strip is arranged in an S-shape within the pressing seat 11. The guide rail 1 is then magnetically attached to the roof via the magnetic strip 2. The guide rail 1 is aligned with the length of the mounting position. The guide rail 1 can be configured as a curve or a straight line depending on the mounting direction. The pressing roller 111 presses down on the end of the LED strip, while the double-sided adhesive on the LED strip adheres to the mounting position on the roof. The small motor 4 is powered on, driving the fixed gear 6 to rotate. The gear 6, in conjunction with the fixed rack 3, drives the movable seat 5 to move along the length of the guide rail 1. The movable seat 5 drives the pressing seat 11 to move synchronously. The pressing seat 11 presses and attaches the LED light strip. At the same time, the LED light strip wound inside the I-beam wheel 10 is simultaneously loosened. Under the elastic force of the spring 74 of the clamping component 7, the pressing seat 11 always applies a certain pressure toward the roof, ensuring the stability of the LED light strip installation and allowing the double-sided adhesive to adhere to the installation position on the roof. Meanwhile, the small motor 4 serves as the drive source, reducing manual intervention and realizing the automatic installation operation of the LED light strip.
[0038] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of small motors and LED light strips need to be selected and determined based on the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation methods adopt existing technologies in this field, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
