Detailed Implementation

[0030] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below through detailed embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-11 This embodiment provides a front reading light with ambient lighting effects, including a reading light body 100, with a strip-shaped ambient light module 200 along the edge of the reading light body 100. The ambient light module 200 includes a light-transmitting mask 210, a light guide strip 220, and two LED lighting modules 230. The light-transmitting mask 210 and the light guide strip 220 extend along the edge of the reading light body 100, and the two LED lighting modules 230 are located at both ends of the light guide strip 220. The light-transmitting mask 210 includes a first light guide portion 211 and a second light guide portion 212 distributed in parallel, and a connecting portion 213 connecting the first light guide portion 211 and the second light guide portion 212. The first light guide portion 211 is located inside the reading light body 100 and has an insert groove 2111 that engages with the light guide strip 220. The second light guide portion 212 is located outside the reading light body 100. By setting a strip-shaped ambient light module 200 along the edge of the reading lamp body 100, two LED lighting modules 230 can simultaneously illuminate both ends of the light guide strip 220. The light is evenly transmitted along the light guide strip 220 and emitted laterally through the light-transmitting cover 210, thereby forming a strip-shaped ambient light effect along the edge of the reading lamp body 100, simplifying the overall structure, and the light is relatively soft.

[0032] In some implementations, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The exposed surface of the second light guide 212 on the side away from the first light guide 211 is divided into a light-transmitting area 2121 extending along the length of the light-transmitting mask 210 and a light-shielding area 2122 distributed around the light-transmitting area 2121. Specifically, a light-shielding coating is first formed on the exposed surface of the second light guide 212 on the side away from the first light guide 211 using PVD technology to form the light-shielding area 2122, and then the light-transmitting area 2121 is formed by laser engraving along the length. In this way, ambient light can form a strip-shaped luminous area through the light-transmitting area 2121, and with the help of the light-emitting control program, different ambient light effects such as alternating bright and dark breathing light effects and gradient color effects can be formed.

[0033] Preferably, the width of the light-transmitting area 2121 is 0.5mm to 3mm. As an example, the width of the light-transmitting area 2121 is 1mm.

[0034] In some implementations, reference Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 The mounting groove 2111 has a limiting groove 2112 at each end, and the light guide strip 220 has a limiting block 221 at each end that engages with the limiting groove 2112. By engaging the limiting block 221 with the limiting groove 2112, the light guide strip 220 can be embedded in the mounting groove 2111 and positioned, so that the light guide strip 220 is mounted on the light-transmitting mask 210.

[0035] Furthermore, refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 The first light guide section 211 has a latch 2113 on its side wall that communicates with the limiting groove 2112, and the limiting block 221 has a locking block 222 that engages with the latch 2113. Thus, after the light guide strip 220 is embedded in the mounting groove 2111 and the limiting block 221 is engaged in the limiting groove 2112, the locking block 222 is pressed to engage with the latch 2113, preventing the light guide strip 220 from falling off the light-transmitting mask 210.

[0036] In some implementations, reference Figures 1-6 The reading light body 100 includes a lamp holder 110, a panel 120, and a PCBA module 130 installed between the lamp holder 110 and the panel 120. The PCBA module 130 is electrically connected to a wiring socket 131. The first light guide 211 is held by the edges of the lamp holder 110 and the panel 120. During assembly, the panel 120 and the lamp holder 110 can be assembled using screws, thereby jointly holding and fixing the light-transmitting cover 210 on which the light guide strip 220 is installed, and exposing the second light guide 212 of the light-transmitting cover 210 to the outside of the reading light body 100. After the front reading light is installed on the roof, the wiring socket 131 is connected to the vehicle control system using wires.

[0037] As an example, the overall outline of the front reading light is roughly a rounded rectangle, and the ambient light module 200 installed on the edge of the reading light body 100 is roughly U-shaped.

[0038] In some specific implementation methods, refer to Figures 4-6 and Figure 9 The first light guide section 211 has several first inserts 2114 on the side near the lamp holder 110, and the lamp holder 110 has positioning holes 111 that are correspondingly inserted and connected to the first inserts 2114. By inserting and engaging the first inserts 2114 with the positioning holes 111, the light-transmitting mask 210 with the light guide strip 220 installed can be kept in a fixed position connection with the lamp holder 110.

[0039] In some specific implementation methods, refer to Figures 4-6 and Figure 9The first light guide section 211 has several second inserts 2115 on the side near the panel 120, and the panel 120 has positioning slots 121 that are correspondingly inserted and connected to the second inserts 2115. By the insertion and cooperation of the second inserts 2115 and the positioning slots 121, the light-transmitting mask 210 with the light guide strip 220 installed can be kept in a positional connection with the panel 120.

[0040] In some implementations, reference Figures 5-8 The LED lighting module 230 includes an LED light panel 231, LED beads 232 fixed on the LED light panel 231, and a wiring plug 233 connected to the LED light panel 231. The light emission direction of the LED beads 232 is towards the end of the light guide strip 220. The lamp holder 110 has a mounting groove 112 for inserting and connecting the LED light panel 231, and a cover plate 113 is provided at the opening of the mounting groove 112. The cover plate 113 is detachably connected to the lamp holder 110 by a snap-fit ​​method. During assembly, the LED light panel 231 can be inserted along the mounting groove 112 on the lamp holder 110 until the LED beads 232 are aligned with the end of the light guide strip 220. Then, the cover plate 113 is snapped to fix the LED light panel 231, and the wiring plug 233 is connected to the vehicle control system. As an example, each LED light panel 231 has one LED bead 232. In this way, the illumination of the entire front reading light is achieved by the illumination of only two LED beads 232.

[0041] In some implementations, reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The reading light body 100 includes a glasses case 140 for holding glasses, and an SOS button 150, an alarm button 160, and a headlight 170 connected to the PCBA module 130. The headlight 170 is connected to a touch switch. As an example, the touch switch can be a capacitive touch switch, which turns on the headlight 170 to illuminate the vehicle's interior. Furthermore, the SOS button 150 and alarm button 160 are common vehicle function buttons, so their specific structures will not be described in detail.

[0042] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the concept and technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit this utility model.

Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.

[0043] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
