Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turn signal assembly technology, and more specifically, to a turn signal assembly that is easy to position and install. Background Technology
[0002] Cars are equipped with lights that have different functions depending on the needs. For example, when a car turns, the front and rear taillights will emit corresponding flashing lights to alert other vehicles. In addition, turn signals are also installed on the left and right sides of the car, and these turn signals also work when the car turns.
[0003] Common turn signal assemblies can only be fixed to the vehicle body through a clip structure, but they lack the function of clip position adjustment. When replacing the turn signal assembly, due to the deformation and displacement of the vehicle body clip frame due to long-term use or individual deviations due to differences in manufacturing processes, it is difficult for the clips to be accurately matched to the clip slots on different vehicle bodies during replacement and installation, resulting in a decrease in installation compatibility.
[0004] In summary, to ensure installation compatibility, it is necessary to address the issue that the buckle position cannot be adjusted according to the slot position, so that when replacing the turn signal assembly, the buckle position can be adjusted according to the slot position on different vehicle bodies. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention provides a turn signal assembly that is easy to position and install. The problem to be solved is that due to the deformation and displacement of the body frame position due to long-term use or individual deviations due to differences in manufacturing processes, it is difficult to accurately match the clips on different body surfaces when replacing and installing.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a turn signal assembly that is easy to position and install, including a lamp housing, a plurality of fixing blocks are installed on the outer side of the lamp housing, an arc-shaped sliding rod is installed on the surface of the fixing blocks, a sliding block is installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped sliding rod, a sliding groove is opened on the side of the sliding block near the lamp housing, the side of the lamp housing is inserted into the interior of the sliding groove, a buckle plate is installed on the side of the sliding block away from the lamp housing, a fixing buckle is installed on the surface of the buckle plate, and a limit mechanism is provided on the lamp housing.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the docking end of the limiting mechanism is connected to the arc-shaped slide rod. The limiting mechanism is used to limit the movement range of the sliding block. The limiting mechanism includes an elastic component and a blocking component. The fixed end of the elastic component is connected to the blocking component. The elastic component is used to adjust the spatial position of the blocking component. The docking end of the blocking component is connected to the arc-shaped slide rod. The blocking component is used to limit the movement range of the sliding block.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the elastic component includes a plurality of telescopic grooves formed on the outside of the lamp housing, a telescopic rod installed inside the telescopic grooves, and a return spring installed inside the telescopic grooves.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the blocking assembly includes a limiting block installed at the telescopic end of the telescopic rod and a limiting groove formed on the surface of the limiting block. The end of the arc-shaped slide rod away from the fixed block is inserted into the interior of the limiting groove, and the end of the limiting block near the telescopic rod is inserted into the interior of the telescopic groove.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a fixing frame is mounted on the surface of the lamp housing, a light distribution lens is mounted on the surface of the fixing frame, and a light transmission mechanism is provided on the light distribution lens.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the light-transmitting mechanism is used to allow light to pass through for illumination. The light-transmitting mechanism includes an anti-offset component and a light-reflecting component. The anti-offset component is used to limit the position of the lens, and the light-reflecting component is used to reflect inertia into the environment.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the anti-offset assembly includes a sealing strip mounted on the surface of the lens, an anti-offset frame mounted on the surface of the lens, and an insert plate mounted on the surface of the lamp housing, with one end of the insert plate away from the lamp housing inserted into the interior of the anti-offset frame.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the light reflecting component includes a light-emitting ridge mounted on the surface of the lens and a textured groove formed on the surface of the light-emitting ridge.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, a mounting groove is provided on the surface of the lamp housing, and an integrated circuit board is installed inside the mounting groove.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model achieves stepless adjustment of the fixed buckle position along the contour of the lamp body by using a sliding slider structure set on the side of the lamp housing, combined with the elastic locking function of the arc-shaped sliding rod guide and the limiting mechanism.

[0022] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.
[0023] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figures 1 to 5 A turn signal assembly for easy positioning and installation includes a lamp housing 1. Multiple fixing blocks 11 are installed on the outer side of the lamp housing 1. An arc-shaped sliding rod 12 is installed on the surface of the fixing block 11. A sliding block 13 is installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped sliding rod 12. A sliding groove 14 is opened on the side of the sliding block 13 near the lamp housing 1. The side of the lamp housing 1 is inserted into the interior of the sliding groove 14. A snap-on plate 15 is installed on the side of the sliding block 13 away from the lamp housing 1. A fixing snap 16 is installed on the surface of the snap-on plate 15. A limit mechanism is provided on the lamp housing 1.
[0024] It should be noted that the fixed block 11 and the arc-shaped slide rod 12 form a rigid support frame, providing an arc-shaped movement trajectory for the sliding block 13. The sliding block 13 achieves sliding along the contour of the lamp housing 1 through the engagement of its slide groove 14 with the side of the lamp housing 1. The buckle plate 15 and the fixed buckle 16 are used to directly dock with the body slot, and their positions can be adaptively adjusted by sliding the sliding block 13.
[0025] It is worth noting that this structure breaks through the limitation of the traditional fixed position of the turn signal clip. By sliding the slider 13 on the arc-shaped slider 12, the fixed clip 16 can be flexibly adjusted in installation position within a certain range, which significantly improves its compatibility with the slot position deviation caused by vehicle body deformation or manufacturing tolerance.
[0026] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figures 2 to 5The limiting mechanism is connected to the arc-shaped slide rod 12 at its docking end. The limiting mechanism is used to limit the movement range of the sliding block 13. The limiting mechanism includes an elastic component and a blocking component. The fixed end of the elastic component is connected to the blocking component. The elastic component is used to adjust the spatial position of the blocking component. The docking end of the blocking component is connected to the arc-shaped slide rod 12. The blocking component is used to limit the movement range of the sliding block 13.
[0027] It should be noted that the limiting mechanism provides a controllable rebound force through the elastic component, driving the blocking component to form a dynamic connection with the end of the arc-shaped slide rod 12. This design ensures the support strength of the arc-shaped slide rod 12. The synergistic effect of the elastic component and the blocking component not only ensures the flexibility of the slider 13 during adjustment and allows for compression and unlocking, but also provides stability in the working state.
[0028] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 2 The elastic component includes multiple telescopic grooves 311 formed on the outside of the lamp housing 1, a telescopic rod 312 installed inside the telescopic grooves 311, and a return spring 313 installed inside the telescopic grooves 311.
[0029] It should be noted that the telescopic rod 312 provides stable linear guidance, and the return spring 313 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 312. Its pre-compression force ensures that the limit block 321 has a tendency to pop outward, and under normal conditions, it maintains the lock on the end of the arc-shaped slide rod 12.
[0030] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 5 The blocking assembly includes a limiting block 321 installed at the telescopic end of the telescopic rod 312 and a limiting groove 322 formed on the surface of the limiting block 321. The end of the arc-shaped sliding rod 12 away from the fixed block 11 is inserted into the interior of the limiting groove 322, and the end of the limiting block 321 near the telescopic rod 312 is inserted into the interior of the telescopic groove 311.
[0031] It should be noted that the dimensions of the limiting groove 322 are closely matched with the shape of the end of the arc-shaped slide rod 12, forming a reliable support for the arc-shaped slide rod 12. The design of the limiting block 321 partially inserting into the telescopic groove 311 enhances its resistance to bending and its movement stability. After pressing the limiting block 321 to overcome the elastic force of the return spring 313, the limiting groove 322 separates from the end of the arc-shaped slide rod 12, at which point the sliding block 13 can be freely slid for position adjustment. After releasing, the return spring 313 pushes the limiting block 321 to reset and re-lock the arc-shaped slide rod 12, making the operation extremely convenient.
[0032] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1 A fixing frame 19 is installed on the surface of the lamp housing 1, and a light distribution lens 20 is installed on the surface of the fixing frame 19. A light transmission mechanism is provided on the light distribution lens 20.
[0033] It should be noted that the fixed frame 19 serves as the connecting skeleton between the lamp housing 1 and the light distribution lens 20. The light distribution lens 20 covers the fixed frame 19, and the light transmission mechanism is integrated on it, which is responsible for the directional transmission and distribution of light.
[0034] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figures 1 to 4 The light-transmitting mechanism is used to allow light to pass through and illuminate. The light-transmitting mechanism includes an anti-offset component and a light-reflecting component. The anti-offset component is used to limit the position of the lens 20, and the light-reflecting component is used to reflect inertia into the environment.
[0035] It should be noted that the anti-displacement component mainly addresses the displacement problem that may occur in the lens 20 under long-term vibration or temperature changes, ensuring the alignment accuracy of the optical components. The light reflection component, on the other hand, reflects the light emitted by the light source through a specific structural design, optimizing the light pattern to meet regulatory requirements.
[0036] It is worth noting that the combination of the two not only ensures the structural reliability of the luminaire, but also improves the optical performance, such as brightness uniformity and light intensity in a specific direction, which is the core design of the functional lens 20.
[0037] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figures 3 to 4 The anti-offset assembly includes a sealing strip 411 mounted on the surface of the lens 20, an anti-offset frame 412 mounted on the surface of the lens 20, and an insert plate 413 mounted on the surface of the lamp housing 1. The end of the insert plate 413 away from the lamp housing 1 is inserted into the interior of the anti-offset frame 412.
[0038] It should be noted that the sealing strip 411 fills the joint between the lens 20 and the fixing frame 19 to achieve waterproof and dustproof protection. The anti-offset frame 412 and the insert plate 413 form a plug-in fit, and the plug-in design provides radial constraint to effectively prevent the lens 20 from moving laterally.
[0039] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 4 The light reflecting component includes a light-emitting ridge 421 mounted on the surface of the lens 20 and a textured groove 422 formed on the surface of the light-emitting ridge 421.
[0040] It should be noted that the luminous ridge 421 is a raised strip-shaped optical structure on the surface of the lens 20. The groove 422 is molded on the surface of the ridge. Its specific angle, depth and density are designed to precisely control the reflection path of light, enhance the visibility of a specific viewing angle or form a uniform light band.
[0041] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 3 The surface of the lamp housing 1 is provided with a mounting groove 17, and an integrated circuit board 18 is installed inside the mounting groove 17.
[0042] It should be noted that the mounting groove 17 is a recessed area formed on the inner wall of the lamp housing 1, and its shape matches the outline of the integrated circuit board 18. The integrated circuit board 18 integrates the LED driver circuit, control chip and LED light source.
[0043] Working principle: When the integrated circuit board 18 receives a vehicle turn signal, it drives the light source on the integrated circuit board 18 in the driving mounting slot 17 to emit light. The emitted light first illuminates the lens 20. The light-emitting protrusions 421 and the grooves 422 on the surface of the lens 20 act as light-reflecting structures, specifically reflecting the incident light, shaping the light and projecting it evenly into the external environment of the vehicle, forming a turn signal pattern that meets regulatory requirements, providing a clear turn signal for other road users. Regarding the fixation of the lens 20 to the lamp housing 1, the anti-deviation component ensures the stability of optical performance. The turn signal lens 20 is connected to the lamp housing 1 via a fixing frame 19. Its edge sealing strip 411 provides a seal to prevent moisture and dust intrusion. Simultaneously, the anti-offset frame 412 on the turn signal lens 20 is tightly engaged with the insert plate 413 on the surface of the lamp housing 1, effectively limiting the lateral displacement of the turn signal lens 20 that may occur when subjected to vibration or temperature changes, maintaining its precise alignment with the light source. Most importantly, it has a mounting and positioning adjustment function. When the turn signal assembly needs to be installed on the vehicle body, or when a deviation is found in the vehicle body slot position due to deformation or manufacturing tolerances during replacement, the limiting block 321 can be pressed. The pressing action causes the limiting block 321 to overcome... The spring force of the return spring 313 retracts along the guide of the telescopic rod 312 into the telescopic groove 311, causing the limiting groove 322 on the surface of the limiting block 321 to disengage from the end of the arc-shaped slide rod 12, thereby releasing the lock on the end of the arc-shaped slide rod 12. At this time, the sliding block 13 is connected to the arc-shaped slide rod 12, and the sliding block 13 can slide along the trajectory of the arc-shaped slide rod 12. The sliding block 13 is locked to the side of the lamp housing 1 by the sliding groove 14 on its inner side to ensure smooth sliding. As the sliding block 13 moves, the positions of the buckle plate 15 and the fixing buckle 16 installed on its outer side also change accordingly, according to the actual buckle groove on the vehicle body. Positioning: Slide the slider 13 and its fixing buckle 16 to the optimal matching position. After adjustment, release the limiting block 321. The elastic restoring force of the return spring 313 will immediately push the limiting block 321 outward, so that its limiting groove 322 re-locks and supports the end of the arc-shaped slide rod 12. Finally, align the fixed buckle 16 with the adjusted position and lock it into the mounting slot of the vehicle body to complete the precise and stable installation. The whole process uses the arc-shaped slide rail and elastic limiting mechanism to realize the stepless adjustment of the buckle position within a certain range, which significantly improves the adaptability of the turn signal assembly to different installation conditions.
[0044] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
