[0002] In the field of automotive lighting installation, the connection between the lamp connector and the lamp housing is a crucial step in ensuring the stable and reliable operation of the lamp. Currently, in existing automotive lighting assemblies, the lamp connector and the lamp housing are not directly connected; the connector is simply placed haphazardly outside the lamp housing. Because the connector is exposed outside the lamp housing without effective fixation and protection, it will shake with the vehicle's bumps and vibrations during driving. At this time, the wiring harness inside the connector is highly susceptible to collision with other connecting components on the lamp housing. Over time, the insulation layer of the wiring harness inside the connector will wear down. If the inner core of the wiring harness is exposed, it may cause a short circuit, which in severe cases can affect the normal operation of the automotive lighting and even cause malfunctions in the vehicle's electrical system, endangering driving safety.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] This utility model provides a connector for automotive lighting fixtures and a connecting component for the base shell of the lighting fixture, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the bracket 1 is L-shaped and includes a first frame 2 and a second frame 3 fixedly connected to each other. The first frame 2 has a latch 4 located in its middle. The lamp connector 5 has a protrusion 6 located on its side wall near the lamp base 12. The protrusion 6 engages with the latch 4, thus connecting the first frame 2 and the lamp connector 5, and consequently, the bracket 1 and the lamp connector 5. The outer side of the protrusion 6 is covered with a through-protrusion 7, forming a groove 8 between the side wall of the lamp connector 5 and the protrusion 7, through which the first frame 2 can pass. Specifically, one end of the latching protrusion 6 has a ramp 9, and the other end has a locking surface 10. When the first frame 2 is connected to the lamp connector 5, the first frame 2 is inserted into the slot 8 of the lamp connector 5. The locking jaw 4 enters from the ramp 9 of the latching protrusion 6 and gradually locks the latching protrusion 6 at the locking surface 10, making it easier to operate. On the side wall of the lamp connector 5, symmetrical strip grooves 11 are also provided on both sides of the latching protrusion 6, so that when the locking jaw 4 locks the latching protrusion 6, the latching protrusion 6 is elastic and easily deformable, making it easier to operate.
[0024] The second frame 3 is detachably connected to the lamp base 12 via screws 13. Specifically, the second frame 3 has a first mounting hole 14, and the lamp base 12 has a second mounting hole 15. The screws 13 pass through the first mounting hole 14 and the second mounting hole 15, thus connecting the lamp base 12 to the second frame 3, and further connecting the lamp base 12 to the bracket 1. This connector effectively fixes the lamp connector 5 and the lamp base 12 with the help of the bracket 1, reducing the shaking of the wiring harness inside the connector, reducing the wear of the wiring harness insulation layer, and further ensuring the normal use of the lamp.
[0025] The base shell 12 of the lamp fixture has a first protrusion 16 and a second protrusion 17 arranged opposite to each other, and a second mounting hole 15 is located between the first protrusion 16 and the second protrusion 17. The second frame 3 has a first socket 18 and a second socket 19 arranged opposite to each other, and a first mounting hole 14 is located between the first socket 18 and the second socket 19. The first protrusion 16 matches and can be engaged within the first socket 18, and the second protrusion 17 matches and can be engaged within the second socket 19. The engagement of the first protrusion 16 with the first socket 18 and the engagement of the second protrusion 17 with the second socket 19 further ensures a reliable connection between the base shell 12 of the lamp fixture and the bracket 1. In this embodiment, the first socket 18 is elliptical in shape, and the second socket 19 is circular in shape. The area of the first socket 18 is larger than the area of the second socket 19, which makes it easier for the operator to distinguish the installation position and prevents the operator from installing it backwards, thus playing a role in preventing errors. It should be noted that the shape and size of the first socket 18 and the second socket 19 are not limited to these, as long as their shapes and sizes are different and easy to distinguish.
[0026] The connector for automotive lamp connector 5 and lamp base 12 provided by this utility model involves the operator first inserting the first bracket 2 into the slot 8, so that the protrusion 6 engages with the slot 4 to complete the connection between the bracket 1 and the lamp connector 5. Then, the first protrusion 16 engages with the first socket 18, and the second protrusion 17 engages with the second socket 19 to fix the bracket 1 in place. Finally, the first mounting hole 14 and the second mounting hole 15 are connected by screws 13 to complete the connection between the bracket 1 and the lamp base 12.
[0027] This utility model uses specific examples to illustrate its principles and implementation methods. The above description of the embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the idea of this utility model. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
