Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of vehicle interior structure technology, and more specifically, relates to an ambient light and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Ambient lighting, as an important component for enhancing the visual experience inside the vehicle, not only creates a cabin atmosphere but also serves as a driver assistance feature to some extent. Common ambient lighting typically consists of a lampshade, a thick-walled light guide, a circuit board, a light source, and a lamp housing. Its basic working principle is as follows: light emitted from the light source propagates through the thick-walled light guide and is ultimately projected outwards through the lampshade, creating the lighting effect.

[0003] However, existing vehicle ambient lighting has significant design and application flaws, making it difficult to balance functionality and comfort requirements. Current mainstream ambient lighting designs fall into two categories: direct-emitting and reflective. Direct-emitting ambient lights emit direct light with high brightness, typically reaching tens or even hundreds of nits, making them easily identifiable by drivers during the day. When combined with color and luminous surface variations, they can easily provide driver assistance features. However, their drawback is a smaller luminous surface, limiting their ability to create a pleasant atmosphere and providing lower emotional value. Furthermore, their high intensity can cause glare for drivers at night, affecting nighttime driving safety. Reflective ambient lights emit reflected light with a large luminous surface and softer light, providing a positive emotional experience and enhancing driving comfort at night. However, their brightness is extremely low, only around 10 nits or even lower, making them difficult for drivers to see during the day and unable to provide driver assistance features. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an ambient light and vehicle that addresses the problem that existing vehicle ambient lights, due to structural design limitations, cannot simultaneously meet the needs of daytime driver assistance prompts, nighttime anti-glare, and high emotional value.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide an ambient light, including: The mounting frame has a first light-emitting area and a second light-emitting area; The light source includes a first light-emitting part and a second light-emitting part. The first light-emitting part corresponds to the first light-emitting area, and the light emitted by the first light-emitting part passes through the first light-emitting area and is projected outward. The second light-emitting part corresponds to the second light-emitting area, and the light emitted by the second light-emitting part passes through the second light-emitting area and is projected outward. A reflective element, disposed corresponding to the second light-emitting part, is used to reflect the light generated by the second light-emitting part; and A controller is communicatively connected to the light source, and the controller is used to control the first light-emitting part and / or the second light-emitting part to turn on. When the first light-emitting part is turned on, the light generated passes through the first light-emitting area and is projected outward to form a daytime lighting mode; when the second light-emitting part is turned on, the light generated passes through the second light-emitting area and is projected onto the reflector, and is reflected by the reflector and projected outward to form a nighttime lighting mode.

[0006] The beneficial effects of the ambient light provided in this application are as follows: Compared with the prior art, in daytime lighting mode, the light emitted by the first light-emitting unit directly passes through the first light-emitting area of ​​the mounting frame and is projected outwards. The high-brightness direct light ensures clear visibility for the driver in daytime conditions, meeting the functional requirements of assisted driving prompts. In nighttime lighting mode, the light emitted by the second light-emitting unit is first projected onto the corresponding reflector, and then diffused outwards after reflection. The resulting light has a large and soft luminous surface, which can create an emotionally appealing in-car atmosphere, enhance driving comfort, and completely avoid the impact of strong glare on nighttime driving safety. The controller's flexible control of the first and second light-emitting units allows the ambient light to automatically or manually switch modes according to different driving scenarios during the day and night. Without increasing additional structural complexity, it simultaneously meets the multiple needs of daytime assisted driving prompts, nighttime anti-glare, and high emotional value, significantly improving the practicality of the ambient light and the comfort and safety of the driving experience.

[0007] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the ambient light further includes a light-shielding member movably connected to the mounting frame. The light-shielding member is communicatively connected to the controller. In the daytime lighting mode, the light-shielding member is separated from the first light-emitting area, allowing the light generated by the first light-emitting part to be projected outward. In the nighttime lighting mode, the light-shielding member blocks the first light-emitting area, preventing the light generated by the first light-emitting part from being projected outward.

[0008] In the above technical solution, during daytime lighting mode, the shading component is separated from the first light-emitting area, ensuring that the high-brightness direct light from the first light-emitting part can be projected outwards without obstruction, guaranteeing the clarity and effectiveness of the daytime driver assistance prompts. When switching to nighttime lighting mode, the shading component automatically moves and blocks the first light-emitting area under the controller's command, completely blocking any direct light that may escape from the first light-emitting part, thereby fundamentally eliminating the risk of glare caused by high-intensity direct light during nighttime driving and improving driving safety. At the same time, this solution ensures that nighttime lighting is entirely provided by soft reflected light, guaranteeing the purity and comfort of the atmosphere and providing users with a more immersive emotional experience.

[0009] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the mounting frame has a receiving cavity, the first light-emitting area is connected to the receiving cavity, the ambient light further includes a first light-transmitting plate connected to the mounting frame, the first light-transmitting plate covers the first light-emitting area, and the reflector is disposed outside the receiving cavity and corresponds to the second light-emitting area.

[0010] In the above technical solution, the first light-transmitting element covers the first light-emitting area, preventing external impurities from entering the cavity through the first light-emitting area and ensuring the cleanliness of the cavity. In daytime lighting mode, the light emitted by the first light-emitting part is evenly projected outward through the first light-transmitting plate, ensuring high brightness and light emission efficiency of the direct light, thereby meeting the strict requirements for recognition of daytime assisted driving prompts. Of course, the color of the emitted light can also be controlled by changing the color of the first light-transmitting element to enhance the atmosphere. At the same time, the reflector is placed outside the cavity and corresponds to the position of the second light-emitting area, physically separating the reflective light path from the direct light path. This layout not only avoids mutual interference between the two light paths within the cavity but also ensures the purity and independence of their respective lighting effects.

[0011] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the ambient light further includes a second light-transmitting plate connected to the mounting frame, the second light-transmitting plate being used to cover the second light-emitting area, and both the first light-transmitting plate and / or the second light-transmitting plate having decorative patterns.

[0012] In the aforementioned technical solution, when the mounting frame has a second light-emitting area, the second light-transmitting plate covers this area. This provides a stable light-emitting channel for the second light-emitting part located within the receiving cavity, ensuring that the light, after being reflected by the reflector in nighttime lighting mode, can penetrate and diffuse evenly and softly, continuously meeting the requirements for anti-glare and a high-emotional-value cabin atmosphere. Furthermore, together with the first light-transmitting plate, it forms a double protection, further enhancing the structural sealing and durability of the ambient light. The decorative patterns on the first and / or second light-transmitting plates allow for a more design-oriented visual effect when light is projected, breaking away from the monotonous lighting of traditional ambient lights. Without affecting core functions such as high-brightness daytime driver assistance prompts and the creation of a soft nighttime atmosphere, it enhances the decorative and personalized expression of the cabin.

[0013] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the ambient light further includes a decorative element having an illumination cavity and being rotatably connected to the mounting frame about a first axis. The first light-emitting part and the second light-emitting part are both disposed within the illumination cavity, or the first light-emitting part is disposed within the illumination cavity. The outer wall of the decorative element has multiple decorative patterns, and the multiple decorative patterns are distributed in a ring around the first axis.

[0014] In the aforementioned technical solution, the lighting cavity of the decorative component provides a stable installation and light constraint space for the first and second light-emitting parts. Whether both the first and second light-emitting parts are located within the cavity, or only the first light-emitting part is built-in, it ensures accurate light output from the first light-emitting part in daytime mode, meeting the high-brightness assisted driving warning requirements, while not affecting the second light-emitting part's cooperation with the reflector to achieve soft ambient lighting at night. Furthermore, the decorative component's rotational connection around the first axis, combined with multiple decorative patterns distributed in a ring on its outer wall, allows for diverse visual effects through rotation, breaking the limitations of traditional ambient lighting's single light emission form and enhancing the personalization and emotional value of the cabin decoration. This solution endows the ambient lighting with dynamic interactive attributes without requiring additional complex components, optimizing structural compactness and assembly flexibility while making the driving experience more immersive and of higher quality, better meeting users' personalized and diversified needs for intelligent cockpits.

[0015] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the ambient light further includes a rotary driver connected to the decorative element, the rotary driver being communicatively connected to the controller and used to drive the decorative element to rotate about the first axis.

[0016] In the aforementioned technical solution, a rotary driver drives the decorative element to rotate around a first axis, causing the decorative patterns on it to produce changing light and shadow effects as the angle changes, enhancing visual expressiveness and artistic appeal. This dynamic design not only enriches the atmosphere within the cabin, providing users with a more immersive and engaging emotional experience, but also allows it to be linked with driving information through specific rotation modes, elevating aesthetic decoration into an intuitive visual communication language and further expanding the application potential of ambient lighting in driver assistance and human-machine interaction.

[0017] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the mounting frame includes a light-shielding plate and a decorative plate arranged at an angle. The decorative plate has a light-emitting hole, which forms the first light-emitting area. The openings of the light-shielding plate and the decorative plate form the second light-emitting area. The reflector and the light-shielding plate are located on opposite sides of the decorative plate. A light-emitting space is formed between the mounting frame and the reflector. The light source is disposed within the light-emitting space. The light-shielding plate and the decorative plate are used to ensure that the light generated by the first light-emitting part can only be projected outward through the light-emitting hole.

[0018] In the aforementioned technical solution, this structure ensures that the direct light emitted by the first light-emitting unit is strictly limited and can only be emitted directionally through the pre-set light-emitting holes on the decorative panel, effectively avoiding stray light interference and ensuring the clarity and recognizability of in-vehicle warning signals in daytime mode. Simultaneously, the sunshade and the reflector located on the other side of the decorative panel work together to create an efficient reflected light path for the second light-emitting unit, allowing the soft light of nighttime mode to be evenly diffused through the lateral openings.

[0019] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the reflective surface of the reflector has a decorative pattern.

[0020] In the aforementioned technical solution, when the second light-emitting unit is turned on, its light is reflected by the patterned reflective surface, and the outline and details of the pattern are softly projected into the cabin space, creating a layered and stylish light and shadow effect. This not only significantly enhances the atmosphere and emotional value of the nighttime lighting mode, making the interior environment warmer and more upscale, but also achieves a deep integration of functionality and aesthetics.

[0021] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the reflector is an arc-shaped component, and the inner arc surface of the reflector forms a reflective surface.

[0022] In the above technical solution, the inner arc surface of the arc structure has good light-gathering and diffuse reflection characteristics, which can form a more uniform reflection and diffusion of the light from the second light-emitting part, making the reflected light cover a wider range and the brightness distribution more balanced, creating a soft and enveloping cabin atmosphere, greatly improving emotional value and driving comfort; at the same time, the uniformly diffused soft light can effectively avoid the glare risk caused by local strong light, ensuring nighttime driving safety.

[0023] Secondly, embodiments of this application also provide a vehicle including the aforementioned ambient lighting.

[0024] The beneficial effect of the vehicle provided in this application is that, compared with the prior art, it adopts the above-mentioned ambient light and has similar technical effects, which will not be described in detail here. Attached Figure Description

[0033] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 The ambient light and vehicle provided in this application will now be described. The ambient light includes a mounting frame 1, a light source 2, a reflector 3, and a controller. The mounting frame 1 has a first light-emitting area 101 and a second light-emitting area 102. The light source 2 includes a first light-emitting part 201 and a second light-emitting part 202. The first light-emitting part 201 corresponds to the first light-emitting area 101, and the light emitted by the first light-emitting part 201 passes through the first light-emitting area 101 and is projected outwards. The second light-emitting part 202 corresponds to the second light-emitting area 102, and the light emitted by the second light-emitting part 202 passes through the second light-emitting area 102 and is projected outwards. The reflector 3... Corresponding to the second light-emitting part 202, the reflector 3 is used to reflect the light generated by the second light-emitting part 202; the controller is communicatively connected to the light source 2, and the controller is used to control the first light-emitting part 201 and / or the second light-emitting part 202 to turn on; when the first light-emitting part 201 is turned on, the light generated passes through the first light-emitting area 101 and is projected outward to form a daytime lighting mode; when the second light-emitting part 202 is turned on, the light generated passes through the second light-emitting area 102 and is projected onto the reflector 3, and is reflected by the reflector 3 and projected outward to form a nighttime lighting mode.

[0034] Compared with existing technologies, the ambient light provided in this application, in daytime lighting mode, projects light directly through the first light-emitting area 101 of the mounting frame 1 through the first light-emitting section 201, ensuring clear visibility for the driver during the day and meeting the functional requirements of driver assistance prompts. In nighttime lighting mode, the light emitted by the second light-emitting section 202 is first projected onto the corresponding reflector 3, and then diffused outwards after reflection by the reflector 3. The resulting light has a large and soft luminous surface, creating an emotionally appealing in-car atmosphere and enhancing driving comfort, while completely avoiding the impact of glare on nighttime driving safety. The controller's flexible control of the first and second light-emitting sections 201 and 202 allows the ambient light to automatically or manually switch modes according to different driving scenarios during the day and night. Without increasing additional structural complexity, it simultaneously meets multiple requirements for daytime driver assistance prompts, nighttime anti-glare, and high emotional value, significantly improving the practicality of the ambient light and the comfort and safety of the driving experience.

[0035] Optionally, when the mounting frame 1 forms a closed receiving space, the light source 2 can be placed inside the mounting frame 1; when the mounting frame 1 forms an open receiving space, the light source 2 can be placed on one side of the mounting frame 1 along a first path, the first path can be parallel to the front-back direction or the left-right direction, or it can be at an angle to the front-back direction.

[0036] Optionally, the first light-emitting part 201 and the second light-emitting part 202 can be connected or separated from each other.

[0037] Optionally, the controller can be an in-vehicle control system or a separately configured controller.

[0038] Optionally, the light source 2 has a light-emitting unit and a main control unit. The main control unit controls the opening and closing of the light-emitting unit and is communicatively connected to the controller.

[0039] Optionally, commands can be input to the controller via voice or buttons, thereby controlling the light source 2 to turn on and off.

[0040] Please see Figures 2 to 3 In some embodiments, the ambient light also includes a light-shielding member 5 movably connected to the mounting frame 1. The light-shielding member 5 is communicatively connected to the controller. In daytime lighting mode, the light-shielding member 5 is separated from the first light-emitting area 101, allowing the light generated by the first light-emitting part 201 to be projected outward. In nighttime lighting mode, the light-shielding member 5 blocks the first light-emitting area 101, preventing the light generated by the first light-emitting part 201 from being projected outward.

[0041] In nighttime lighting mode, the controller drives the light-shielding component 5 to block the first light-emitting area 101, completely preventing light leakage from the first light-emitting part 201 and avoiding strong light interference in nighttime environments. Simultaneously, the soft light formed by the reflection of the second light-emitting part 202 by the reflector 3 ensures both nighttime anti-glare driving safety and creates a high-emotional-value cabin atmosphere, enhancing driving comfort. The coordinated design of the light-shielding component 5 with the first light-emitting part 201, the second light-emitting part 202, the reflector 3, and the controller allows for more thorough switching between the two lighting modes and more precise light control. Furthermore, if the first light-emitting part 201 malfunctions and cannot be turned off in nighttime lighting mode via the controller, the light-shielding component 5 can still prevent light leakage from the first light-emitting part 201. This embodiment achieves a perfect balance between daytime driver assistance prompts, nighttime anti-glare, and high-emotional-value, improving the stability of ambient lighting and user experience.

[0042] Optionally, the light-shielding component 5 is slidably or rotatably connected to the mounting frame 1. The light-shielding component 5 includes a light-shielding body 501 and a first driver 502 connected to the light-shielding body 501. The first driver 502 is communicatively connected to the controller. For example, the light-shielding body 501 may include a roller 5011 and a light-shielding curtain 5012 connected to the roller 5011. The roller 5011 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 1 and connected to the first driver 502. The first driver 502 may be a motor.

[0043] Optionally, the first driver 502 is a telescopic component, and the light-shielding body 501 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 1. The movement of the light-shielding body 501 is controlled by the telescopic movement of the first driver 502.

[0044] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the mounting frame 1 has a receiving cavity 103, a first light-emitting area 101 is connected to the receiving cavity 103, and the ambient light also includes a first light-transmitting plate 6 connected to the mounting frame 1. The first light-transmitting plate 6 covers the first light-emitting area 101, and the reflector 3 is disposed outside the receiving cavity 103 and corresponds to the second light-emitting area 102.

[0045] The housing cavity 103 of the mounting frame 1 provides a stable assembly space for the light source component 2. The first light-transmitting plate 6 covers and connects to the first light-emitting area 101 of the housing cavity 103, ensuring efficient light penetration and maintaining high brightness of the first light-emitting part 201 in daytime lighting mode to meet the needs of assisted driving prompts, while also protecting the internal structure and improving the durability of the ambient light. The reflector 3 is located outside the housing cavity 103 and corresponds to the layout of the second light-emitting area 102, making the light projection path of the second light-emitting part 202 in nighttime lighting mode more reasonable. The light reflected by the reflector 3 can diffuse more evenly and softly, effectively enhancing the emotional value of the cabin atmosphere and driving comfort, while avoiding the risk of nighttime glare. The adaptation design of each component and the dual lighting modes makes the light propagation smoother and the control more precise. On the basis of meeting the multiple needs of daytime assisted driving prompts, nighttime anti-glare and high emotional value, the structural stability and user experience of the ambient light are further optimized.

[0046] Specifically, the first light-transmitting panel 6 is a transparent component. Of course, depending on actual needs, the first light-transmitting panel 6 can have a certain color to enhance the atmosphere in daytime lighting mode.

[0047] Optionally, the first light-transmitting plate 6 is embedded in the first light-emitting area 101.

[0048] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the ambient light also includes a second light-transmitting plate 7 connected to the mounting frame 1. The second light-transmitting plate 7 is used to cover the second light-emitting area 102, and both the first light-transmitting plate 6 and / or the second light-transmitting plate 7 have decorative patterns.

[0049] When the mounting frame 1 has a second light-emitting area 102, the second light-transmitting plate 7 covers this area, providing a stable light-emitting channel for the second light-emitting part 202 located in the receiving cavity 103. This ensures that the light, after being reflected by the reflector 3 in nighttime lighting mode, can penetrate and diffuse evenly and softly, continuously meeting the requirements of anti-glare and high-emotional-value cabin atmosphere. It also forms a double protection with the first light-transmitting plate 6, further improving the structural sealing and durability of the ambient light. The decorative patterns on the first light-transmitting plate 6 and / or the second light-transmitting plate 7 allow the light to present a more design-oriented visual effect, avoiding the monotonous lighting form of traditional ambient lights. Without affecting the core functions such as high-brightness daytime driver assistance prompts and soft nighttime atmosphere creation, it enhances the decorative and personalized expression of the cabin.

[0050] Optionally, the second light-transmitting plate 7 is embedded in the second light-emitting area 102.

[0051] Specifically, the second light-transmitting panel 7 is a transparent component. Of course, depending on actual needs, the second light-transmitting panel 7 can have a certain color to enhance the atmosphere in daytime lighting mode.

[0052] Please see Figures 4 to 5 In some embodiments, the ambient light also includes a decorative element 4, which has an illumination cavity and is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 1 about a first axis. The first light-emitting part 201 and the second light-emitting part 202 are both disposed in the illumination cavity, or the first light-emitting part 201 is disposed in the illumination cavity. The outer wall of the decorative element 4 has multiple decorative patterns, which are distributed in a ring around the first axis.

[0053] The lighting cavity of the decorative component 4 serves as the first light-emitting part 201 and the second light-emitting part 202, or it may only provide a stable installation space for the first light-emitting part 201. This ensures that the high-brightness light from the first light-emitting part 201 is accurately directed in daytime mode to meet the needs of assisted driving prompts, while in nighttime mode, the light from the second light-emitting part 202 is efficiently projected onto the reflector 3 to form a soft ambient light. Simultaneously, the decorative component 4 rotates around the first axis and is connected to the mounting frame 1. Multiple decorative patterns distributed in a ring on its outer wall can be switched and displayed as it rotates. Combined with the light projection of the dual lighting modes, it can present a rich and varied visual effect, completely breaking away from the monotonous lighting form of traditional ambient lights and greatly enhancing the personalized decoration and interactive experience of the cabin. This embodiment, while continuously ensuring the core needs of daytime assisted driving prompts, nighttime anti-glare, and high emotional value, gives the ambient light more aesthetic expression and operational fun through rotatable decorative patterns. This optimizes the product's structural rationality and usability, further enhancing the cabin's quality and user experience, making the ambient light both practical and aesthetically competitive, adaptable to user needs in more scenarios.

[0054] Optionally, the light-transmitting element can be a polygonal prism or a cylinder, such as a quadrangular prism.

[0055] Specifically, the light-transmitting component is a transparent component.

[0056] It should be noted that the first axis is the extension path parallel to the first light-emitting part 201, that is, the axis parallel to the first light-emitting part 201.

[0057] As not shown in the figure, in some embodiments, the ambient light also includes a rotary driver connected to the decorative element 4, the rotary driver being communicatively connected to the controller and used to drive the decorative element 4 to rotate about a first axis.

[0058] The rotary actuator, controlled by the controller, precisely drives the decorative element 4 to rotate around the first axis, causing multiple decorative patterns distributed in a ring on its outer wall to automatically switch. Combined with the high-brightness daytime auxiliary warning light from the first light-emitting unit 201 and the soft nighttime ambient light reflected by the reflector 3 from the second light-emitting unit 202, it automatically presents a dynamic and ever-changing visual effect, enriching the personalization and fun of the cabin decoration without manual operation. Simultaneously, the rotary actuator's driving function does not affect the light constraint effect of the lighting cavity on the dual light-emitting units, ensuring the clear recognition of daytime driving assistance prompts and the continued fulfillment of the core requirements for nighttime anti-glare. This intelligent driving design allows the ambient lighting to achieve a synergy between dynamic aesthetics and intelligent control while maintaining core performance requirements for safety and comfort. It reduces user operating costs and enhances the immersive and high-quality feel of the cabin atmosphere through automated pattern switching, further optimizing the product's practical value, intelligent experience, and market competitiveness. Optionally, the rotary drive is a motor.

[0059] Please see Figures 1 to 2 ,and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the mounting frame 1 includes a light-shielding plate 104 and a decorative plate 105 arranged at an angle. The decorative plate 105 has a light-emitting hole, which forms a first light-emitting area 101. The openings of the light-shielding plate 104 and the decorative plate 105 form a second light-emitting area 102. The reflector 3 and the light-shielding plate 104 are located on opposite sides of the decorative plate 105. A light-emitting space is formed between the mounting frame 1 and the reflector 3. The light source 2 is disposed in the light-emitting space. The light-shielding plate 104 and the decorative plate 105 are used to ensure that the light generated by the first light-emitting part 201 can only be projected outward through the light-emitting hole.

[0060] The cooperation between the light shield 104 and the decorative panel 105 strictly constrains the light from the first light-emitting part 201, ensuring that it is projected outward only through the light-emitting hole. This guarantees concentrated brightness and high visibility in daytime lighting mode, fully meeting the needs of assisted driving prompts. Simultaneously, the openings of the light shield 104 and the decorative panel 105 form a second light-emitting area 102. Due to the increased light-emitting area, the light is more dispersed, reducing brightness and increasing the projection area, thus enhancing the ambiance in nighttime lighting mode. Furthermore, the light from the second light-emitting part 202 is projected onto the reflector 3 within the light-emitting space, and after reflection, diffuses outward through the second light-emitting area 102, creating soft and uniform light that effectively creates a high-emotional-value cabin atmosphere while completely avoiding the risk of nighttime glare. This embodiment makes the light control of the dual lighting modes more precise and the propagation more efficient. While ensuring the core needs of daytime assisted driving prompts, nighttime anti-glare, and high emotional value, it further optimizes the structural stability and light utilization efficiency of the ambient lighting.

[0061] Please see Figures 1 to 5 In some embodiments, the reflective surface of the reflector 3 has a decorative pattern.

[0062] The decorative pattern on the reflective surface can project and diffuse the pattern outline and soft light synchronously when reflecting the light from the second light-emitting part 202, making the cabin ambient light present a more design-oriented visual effect, breaking the monotonous light emission form of traditional ambient lights, and greatly enhancing the emotional value and personalized decoration; at the same time, this design does not affect the core reflection function of the reflector 3. The light can still remain soft and uniform after being reflected by the reflective surface with decorative pattern, effectively avoiding the risk of nighttime glare, and does not interfere with the core requirement of the first light-emitting part 201 to achieve high brightness daytime assisted driving prompts through the light outlet.

[0063] Please see Figures 1 to 5 In some embodiments, the reflector 3 is an arc-shaped component, and the inner arc surface of the reflector 3 forms a reflective surface.

[0064] The inner arc surface of the arc structure has good light-gathering and diffuse reflection characteristics, which can form a more uniform reflection and diffusion of the light from the second light-emitting part 202, making the reflected light cover a wider range and the brightness distribution more balanced, creating a soft and enveloping cabin atmosphere, greatly improving emotional value and driving comfort; at the same time, the uniformly diffused soft light can effectively avoid the glare risk caused by local strong light, ensuring driving safety at night.

[0065] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a vehicle. The vehicle includes the aforementioned ambient lighting.

[0066] The vehicle provided by this utility model adopts the aforementioned ambient lighting. In daytime lighting mode, the light emitted by the first light-emitting unit 201 directly passes through the first light-emitting area 101 of the mounting frame 1 and is projected outwards. The high-brightness direct light ensures clear visibility for the driver in daytime conditions, meeting the functional requirements of assisted driving prompts. In nighttime lighting mode, the light emitted by the second light-emitting unit 202 is first projected onto the corresponding reflector 3, and then diffused outwards after being reflected by the reflector 3. The resulting light has a large and soft luminous surface, which can create an emotionally appealing in-car atmosphere, improve driving comfort, and completely avoid the impact of strong glare on nighttime driving safety. The controller's flexible control of the first and second light-emitting units 201 and 202 allows the ambient lighting to automatically or manually switch modes according to different driving scenarios during the day and night. Without increasing additional structural complexity, it simultaneously meets multiple needs such as daytime assisted driving prompts, nighttime anti-glare, and high emotional value, significantly improving the practicality of the ambient lighting and the comfort and safety of the driving experience.

[0067] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
