[0044] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0045] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0046] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model.

[0047] To address the issues of simple structure and limited functionality in existing automotive steering wheel decorative parts, this utility model provides a luminous decorative part.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, the luminous decorative element can be detachably installed in the hollow area 41 of the car steering wheel 40. The luminous decorative element includes: a decorative body 10, a light-emitting part 20, and an adjustment part 30. The light-emitting part 20 has a light-emitting side, and the decorative body 10 is disposed on the light-emitting side. The decorative body 10 is made of a light-transmitting material so that the light provided by the light-emitting part 20 can illuminate the decorative body 10. The adjustment part 30 is located on the side of the light-emitting part 20 away from the decorative body 10. The adjustment part 30 includes an energy storage element 31. The energy storage element 31 has an electrical connection terminal. The electrical connection terminal is electrically connected to the light-emitting part 20 to supply power. At least the outer peripheral surfaces of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are adapted to the shape of the inner peripheral surface of the hollow area 41.

[0049] The luminous decorative component of this application comprises three parts: a decorative body 10, a light-emitting part 20, and an adjustment part 30. The outer peripheral surfaces of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are adapted to the inner peripheral surface shape of the hollowed-out area 41 of the steering wheel 40, ensuring a seamless fit between the decorative component and the steering wheel 40. This improves the adaptability and installation stability of the decorative component, allowing it to remain stably mounted on the steering wheel 40 even while driving, ensuring both decorative effect and driving safety. The energy storage element 31 in the adjustment part 30 establishes an electrical connection with the light-emitting part 20 via an electrical connection terminal, supplying power to the light-emitting part 20. Combined with the light-transmitting material of the decorative body 10, the light provided by the light-emitting part 20 illuminates the decorative body 10, enriching its decorative effect. Users can select and adjust the style of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 according to their personal preferences, improving the flexibility and cost-effectiveness of the luminous decorative component. In the technical solution of this application, by replacing the luminous decorative parts or part of the structure of the luminous decorative parts, different decorative effects can be obtained on the same model of steering wheel. At the same time, it provides an intelligent, convenient and safe user experience, overcomes the problems of single function, poor decorative effect, poor intelligent experience and compatibility with the same model of steering wheel 40 of existing steering wheel 40 decorative parts, and improves the functionality of the luminous decorative parts.

[0050] This application provides multiple installation options. By allowing at least two of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30 to be detachably connected, the ease of installation of the luminous decorative component is improved. Through the separate design of at least two of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30, the luminous decorative component allows for independent disassembly and replacement of the separate parts. Users can change the style of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, or the adjustment part 30 according to their personal preferences without replacing the entire luminous decorative component, thus improving the flexibility and cost-effectiveness of the decoration, as well as enhancing the product's versatility and upgradeability.

[0051] To enable the luminous decorative parts of this application to have diverse decorative effects, one embodiment of this application provides multiple decorative bodies 10, which are detachably connected to the luminous part 20. The multiple decorative bodies 10 differ in at least one of their shape, size, color, or pattern. By replacing decorative bodies 10 with different shapes or sizes, the luminous decorative parts can meet the installation requirements of different steering wheel models. If the multiple decorative bodies 10 have the same shape and size, they can meet the installation requirements of the same model of steering wheel. Furthermore, without changing the shape and size of the decorative bodies 10, replacing them with decorative bodies 10 of different colors or patterns allows for the replacement of decorative bodies 10 with different effects on the same model of steering wheel, thereby satisfying users' personalized needs for the decorative bodies 10 and enabling flexible replacement of the decorative bodies 10, improving the convenience and economy of the user experience.

[0052] In another embodiment of this application, the outer shells of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are integrated, and the overall structure formed by the two is detachably connected to the adjustment part 30. The shape, size, color, and pattern of the integrated structure formed by the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are different at least one of these. By replacing the integrated structure of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 with different shapes or sizes, the illuminated decorative part can meet the installation requirements of different steering wheel models. Furthermore, if the shape and size of the integrated structure of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 remain unchanged, replacing the integrated structure with different colors or patterns allows for the replacement of illuminated decorative parts with different effects on the same model of steering wheel. This solution can meet the different needs of users for illuminated decorative parts, allowing users to easily adjust them according to personal preferences or changes in the interior decoration style without having to repurchase the entire illuminated decorative part.

[0053] In another embodiment of this application, the outer shell of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30 is integrated. That is, the luminous decorative element, composed of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30, is detachably connected to the steering wheel. At least one of the shape, size, color, or pattern of the integrated structure formed by the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30 may differ. By replacing the integrated structure with different shapes or sizes of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30, the luminous decorative element can meet the installation requirements of different steering wheel models. Furthermore, if the shape and size of the integrated structure remain unchanged, replacing it with a different color or pattern allows for the replacement of luminous decorative elements with different effects on the same steering wheel model. The overall replacement of the integrated structure of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30 satisfies the user's requirements for the overall decorative effect of the luminous decorative element and also facilitates mass production and cost reduction for manufacturers.

[0054] It should be noted that regardless of the implementation method described above, the illuminated decorative element can be stably connected to the hollowed-out area 41 of the steering wheel 40. Firstly, the dimensions of the illuminated decorative element are designed to match the corresponding steering wheel model, ensuring a secure connection. Secondly, the beveled design of the hollowed-out area 41 also helps prevent the illuminated decorative element from easily detaching after installation. The channel in the hollowed-out area 41 is flared at the top and gradually narrows from top to bottom, ensuring a stable installation of the illuminated decorative element. When installing the illuminated decorative element, a top-down installation method can be used, or the split structure of the illuminated decorative element can be used to fix it from the top and bottom sides of the steering wheel.

[0055] To ensure convenient assembly and disassembly of the illuminated decorative element and stable connection, at least two of the decorative body 10, the luminous part 20, and the adjustment part 30 are detachably connected by magnetic attraction or snap-fit. Specifically, the magnetic connection provides a tool-free and simple assembly / disassembly method, allowing users to easily replace the separate parts while ensuring that the illuminated decorative element will not fall off even under uneven driving conditions, thus ensuring driving safety. The snap-fit ​​method, on the other hand, uses a mechanical clamping structure to achieve a secure connection between the separate structures, providing additional physical protection to prevent accidental separation of the illuminated decorative element during use.

[0056] The adjustment unit 30 of this application also includes at least one of a vibration sensor 34, a photosensor 35, and a wireless communication module 36. Furthermore, the adjustment unit 30 includes a circuit board 33, on which the energy storage element 31, vibration sensor 34, photosensor 35, and wireless communication module 36 are respectively disposed. The adjustment unit 30 also includes a signal connector 39, one end of which is connected to the circuit board 33, and the other end of which can be connected to the lamp board 22 of the light-emitting unit 20. This arrangement allows the electrical signals of the circuit board 33 to be transmitted to the lamp board 22 through the signal connector 39, thereby achieving changes in the lighting display effect. This design ensures close cooperation among the core components of the adjustment unit 30, realizing intelligent sensing and control of the luminous decorative element.

[0057] Specifically, the circuit board 33 includes an LED indicator circuit, a power supply circuit, an acceleration and gravity detection circuit with a vibration sensor 34, a charging circuit, a simulation download circuit, a microcontroller processing circuit, and a light detection circuit with a photosensitive sensor 35.

[0058] Specifically, the vibration sensor 34 monitors the vibration when the vehicle starts, and the photosensitive sensor 35 detects the light intensity of the surrounding environment. Both can determine the timing of activating the light-emitting part 20. The wireless communication module 36 provides the possibility of remote control, allowing users to set functions through mobile phone applications or mini-programs.

[0059] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, the circuit board 33 is located inside the housing of the adjustment section 30. The adjustment section 30 also includes at least one control button 50, which is located on the bottom or side of the housing of the adjustment section 30 and electrically connected to the circuit board 33. The control button 50 is located on the bottom or side of the housing of the adjustment section 30, which facilitates intuitive operation by the user and enables quick selection of light emission control.

[0060] Specifically, the adjustment unit 30 also includes a charging interface 37, which is located at the bottom or side of the housing of the adjustment unit 30 and is electrically connected to the energy storage element 31. The location of the charging interface 37 at the bottom or side facilitates timely charging by the user, ensuring the power supply of the energy storage element 31 to the light-emitting part 20. Optionally, the energy storage element 31 includes a rechargeable lithium battery, ensuring the battery life of the light-emitting decorative part and facilitating the miniaturization and lightweight design of the adjustment unit 30.

[0061] Specifically, the adjustment unit 30 also includes a charging indicator light 38, which is located on the bottom or side of the housing of the adjustment unit 30 and is electrically connected to the circuit board 33. The charging indicator light 38 further enhances the user experience by clearly indicating the charging status.

[0062] The circuit board 33 of this application also includes a wireless communication module 36. The bidirectional antenna of the wireless communication module 36 can read the information sent by the mobile phone APP and store the read information in the storage module to control the circuit.

[0063] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, the projection of the light-emitting part 20 toward the decorative body 10 is located within the outer periphery of the decorative body 10. A stop flange 11 is located on the periphery of the decorative body 10 away from the light-emitting part 20, and the stop flange 11 is used to engage with the edge of the hollow area 41. The projection of the light-emitting part 20 toward the decorative body 10 being located within the outer periphery of the decorative body 10 ensures that light can effectively exit through the light-emitting side, while preventing the light-emitting part 20 from being directly exposed to the external environment, thus enhancing the overall aesthetics and protective performance of the luminous decorative component. The stop flange 11 on the periphery of the decorative body 10 away from the light-emitting part 20, with its precise fit with the edge of the hollow area 41 of the steering wheel 40, not only achieves a stable connection between the luminous decorative component and the steering wheel 40, but also optimizes the positioning accuracy during assembly. The luminous decorative component can be quickly and accurately installed, greatly reducing the possibility of installation deviation. Even when encountering bumps or turns during vehicle operation, the luminous decorative component can maintain a stable attachment state, without affecting driving safety. In addition, the presence of the stop flange 11 also serves as a buffer, protecting the connection between the decorative body 10 and the steering wheel 40 and extending the product's service life.

[0064] It should be noted that the outer surfaces of the housings of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30 in this application are all made of non-conductive materials. This avoids safety hazards caused by leakage and other problems.

[0065] The following description provides several embodiments based on different connection methods between the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20, and the adjustment part 30.

[0066] Example 1

[0067] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are integrally formed, and the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 are detachably connected. The integration of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 ensures a perfect combination of lighting effect and decorative style, while the detachable connection between the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 not only simplifies the product structure but also ensures the stability and convenience of the connection. In practical use, users can easily change the decorative style and lighting effect quickly without complicated operations by replacing the integral structure of the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20. The adjustment part 30 can be reused, eliminating the need to purchase the entire luminous decorative component again.

[0068] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, the light-emitting part 20 includes a first magnetic connector 21 and a lamp plate 22. The lamp plate 22 is located inside the housing of the light-emitting part 20 and is electrically connected to the first magnetic connector 21. The electrical connection terminal is a second magnetic connector 32. Both the first magnetic connector 21 and the second magnetic connector 32 have magnetic adsorption areas and metal conductive areas. At least the metal conductive area of ​​the first magnetic connector 21 is exposed on the outer surface of the light-emitting part 20, and at least the metal conductive area of ​​the second magnetic connector 32 is also exposed on the outer surface of the second magnetic connector 32, so that the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 are electrically connected through the metal conductive areas. The magnetic adsorption areas of the first magnetic connector 21 and the second magnetic connector 32 can be exposed on the surface of the housing or covered by the surface of the housing, as long as they can be effectively adsorbed. That is to say, the magnetic adsorption area ensures a reliable connection between the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30, and the metal conductive area ensures that the adjustment part 30 supplies power to the light-emitting part 20. The aforementioned magnetic connector is generally referred to as a magnetic connector. This magnetic connection not only provides a quick and convenient installation and removal experience but also enhances the product's user-friendliness and safety. In practical applications, the stability of the magnetic connection is sufficient to cope with various driving conditions. Even at high speeds or on bumpy roads, the connection remains firm and will not loosen or affect driving safety. Furthermore, the magnetic connection design makes it easy to replace the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20. Users can easily replace different decorative bodies 10 and light-emitting parts 20 according to personal preferences or changes in the car's interior decoration style, without having to replace the core component of the entire illuminated decorative piece—the adjustment part 30. This not only reduces costs but also greatly enhances the flexibility and personalization of the user experience.

[0069] Optionally, the magnetic adsorption region is located on the outer periphery of the metal conductive region.

[0070] Specifically, the first magnetic connector 21 includes a first magnetic adsorption area and a first metal conductive area, the first magnetic adsorption area being arranged in a ring around the first metal conductive area; the second magnetic connector 32 includes a second magnetic adsorption area 321 and a second metal conductive area 322, the second magnetic adsorption area 321 being arranged in a ring around the second metal conductive area 322. The first magnetic adsorption area and the second magnetic adsorption area 321 are connected to achieve magnetic adsorption, and the first metal conductive area and the second metal conductive area 322 are electrically connected so that the adjustment unit 30 supplies power to the light-emitting unit 20. Specifically, the second metal conductive area 322 can be composed of a metal sheet, a metal head, etc.

[0071] In an optional embodiment, the second magnetic adsorption region 321 may not be annular; it may consist of two separate permanent magnets, an N-pole and a S-pole, distributed on both sides of the second metal conductive region 322. Correspondingly, two separate permanent magnets, an S-pole and a N-pole, are formed at the first magnetic adsorption region. Through the adsorption of the first and second magnetic adsorption regions 321, the light-emitting part 20 and the adjusting part 30 can be magnetically connected while also having an anti-reverse mounting effect.

[0072] In another alternative embodiment, the number of the first magnetic connector 21 and the second magnetic connector 32 can also be adjusted. Specifically, there are two of each of the first magnetic connector 21 and the second magnetic connector 32, and the first magnetic connector 21 and the second magnetic connector 32 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, which improves the connection effect between the light-emitting part 20 and the adjusting part 30 and further prevents them from falling off.

[0073] In one optional embodiment, the metal conductive area of ​​the first magnetic connector 21 and the metal conductive area of ​​the second magnetic connector 32 are connected by plugging in a male and female form to achieve electrical connection, thereby enabling the adjustment unit 30 to supply power to the light-emitting unit 20.

[0074] In one optional embodiment, a microcircuit board is also provided on the lamp panel 22. The electronic components on the microcircuit board can perform communication and signal processing functions, such as signal modulation and demodulation. The signal connector 39 extends towards the light-emitting part 20 and connects to the connection port of the microcircuit board. This allows signals emitted from the circuit board 33 on the adjustment part 30 to be transmitted to the microcircuit board via the signal connector 39, thereby controlling the change in lighting. Alternatively, an adapter can be used to connect to the connection port of the microcircuit board, so that the port of the adapter is pre-existing on the surface of the light-emitting part 20, facilitating electrical connection with the signal connector 39.

[0075] Optionally, the surfaces of the light-emitting part 20 and the adjusting part 30 that mate with each other are also provided with a positioning structure 60 with a concave-convex fit, ensuring a unique and correct docking position between the light-emitting part 20 and the adjusting part 30, effectively avoiding incorrect installation. At the same time, the positioning structure 60 with a concave-convex fit can effectively prevent the light-emitting part 20 and the adjusting part 30 from being misaligned in the lateral direction, ensuring the docking stability of the first magnetic connector 21 and the second magnetic connector 32, avoiding adsorption failure caused by accidental misalignment, ensuring the reliability of power supply, enhancing the stability of the luminous decorative part, and avoiding potential safety hazards.

[0076] It should be noted that, optionally, the magnetic attraction force of the first magnetic connector 21 is greater than or equal to twice the weight of the adjustment part 30. This ensures a stable connection between the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 during use. By enhancing the magnetic attraction force, even when driving at high speeds or encountering bumpy roads, it effectively prevents the adjustment part 30 and the light-emitting part 20 from accidentally loosening and falling off, ensuring driving safety. At the same time, this enhanced attraction force also provides a more reliable and convenient disassembly and assembly experience when users replace the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 daily, without worrying about connection failure affecting product performance.

[0077] The second magnetic connector 32 can be mounted on the housing of the adjustment unit 30 to ensure effective adsorption of the second magnetic adsorption area 321 and effective energization of the second metal conductive area 322. Optionally, the adjustment unit 30 also includes a shielding cover located inside the housing of the adjustment unit 30, with the portion of the second metal conductive area 322 connected to the circuit board 33 extending into the shielding cover. This design effectively utilizes the properties of magnetic shielding materials, guiding and absorbing magnetic lines of force through the shielding cover, preventing them from diffusing to the circuit board 33 area of ​​the adjustment unit 30, ensuring that even in complex electromagnetic environments, the static magnetic field will not have any potential impact on sensitive circuits. Of course, the above-mentioned shielding cover is only an optional solution, and since the adjustment unit 30 is not heavy, the selected magnetic material is insufficient to generate magnetic interference. Therefore, the design of the shielding cover should only be used when necessary, and reasonable adjustments need to be made according to the specific usage and scenario.

[0078] Alternatively, plastic can be chosen as the material for the housing of the adjustment part 30, and the inner surface of the housing of the adjustment part 30 has a nickel-based coating. This design, while ensuring product lightweighting, utilizes the nickel-based coating of the plastic housing to construct a comprehensive electromagnetic shield, effectively avoiding external electromagnetic interference and ensuring the stability and safety of the circuit board operation. Simultaneously, the nickel-based coating also enhances the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the housing of the adjustment part 30, extending the product's service life and providing users with a more durable user experience. Of course, similar to the aforementioned shielding cover, the nickel-based coating housing also necessitates prioritizing the fulfillment of the various functions of the luminous decorative component of this application. Further optimization design considerations, without compromising these functions, require further consideration of the actual usage requirements and the reasonable placement of the nickel-based coating.

[0079] Example 2

[0080] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are no longer integrated into one structure.

[0081] like Figures 6 to 10As shown, the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are detachably connected, and the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 are integrated. This design allows the decorative body 10 to be easily replaced to meet personalized visual needs, while the tight integration of the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 ensures an effective combination of intelligent control and lighting effects. Through this modular design, the replacement of the decorative body 10 is no longer limited to a fixed lighting mode or control method. Users can freely choose different decorative bodies 10 according to their preferences or occasions, while retaining the original light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30, which saves costs and improves the user experience. In addition, the integrated light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 are more convenient to install, reduce the complexity of the connection between components, and improve the overall stability and reliability of the luminous decorative part. In other words, in this embodiment, the decorative part and the electronic control part are effectively separated, so that they do not interfere with each other, while ensuring that both parts can stably perform their respective functions.

[0082] The light-emitting unit 20 includes a lamp board 22, which is disposed within the housing and electrically connected to electrical connection terminals to ensure effective power supply to the lamp board 22. The circuit board 33 can also be directly connected to the micro-circuit board on the lamp board 22 via a signal connector 39, thereby controlling the light-emitting parameters of the lamp board 22 through the adjustment unit 30. Users can turn the lamp board on or off, or adjust the light color, brightness, and mode by pressing the control button 50, enhancing the user's personalized experience and ease of interaction. When the decorative body 10 is connected to the light-emitting unit 20, the light emitted by the lamp board 22 can pass evenly through the decorative body 10, creating a beautiful visual effect. The control button is located at the bottom or side of the housing of the adjustment unit 30, facilitating intuitive operation and quick selection of light-emitting control.

[0083] like Figures 6 to 10 As shown, the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 are located within the same housing and have a light-transmitting panel, which is located on the light-emitting side. This design fully utilizes the properties of the light-transmitting material, ensuring that the light source can pass through the decorative body 10 uniformly and softly, creating a visually comfortable and personalized driving environment for the driver. The tight integration of the light-transmitting panel with the housing of the light-emitting part 20 not only enhances the overall structural stability but also optimizes the light transmission path, improves luminous efficiency, and reduces energy consumption. Furthermore, since the light-transmitting panel is adjacent to the decorative body 10, it can also act as a protective layer, reducing wear and damage to the decorative body 10 from the steering wheel 40 and extending the lifespan of the decorative body 10.

[0084] Optionally, the light-transmitting panel has at least one of an anti-reflective film and a light-diffusing film. The anti-reflective film or light-diffusing film applied to the light-transmitting panel significantly improves the optical performance of the light-emitting part 20, increasing luminous efficiency and optimizing light output quality, providing users with an aesthetically pleasing and comfortable driving environment. The use of the anti-reflective film reduces light reflection loss on the surface of the decorative body 10, increases light transmittance, and ensures that the light emitted by the light-emitting part 20 penetrates the decorative body 10 more efficiently, increasing brightness and visual effect. The light-diffusing film homogenizes the light emitted by the lamp panel 22, eliminating uneven brightness and light spots, making the overall luminous effect of the decorative body 10 softer and more uniform, improving the user's visual experience while avoiding glare problems that may occur due to direct light. In other embodiments, the anti-reflective film and the light-diffusing film can also be customized with different materials and thicknesses according to the different materials of the decorative body 10 and the luminous requirements to achieve the best optical effect.

[0085] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the light-emitting part 20 includes a first magnetic member 23, and the decorative body 10 includes a second magnetic member 12. The first magnetic member 23 and the second magnetic member 12 are magnetically attracted to each other. The light-emitting part 20 and the decorative body 10 are connected and fixed by magnetic attraction, and the magnetic poles of the first magnetic member 23 and the second magnetic member 12 are opposite to each other to ensure stable physical attraction. This magnetic attraction design simplifies the assembly process, enables quick replacement of the decorative body 10, and meets multiple requirements for convenience, safety, and aesthetics.

[0086] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the first magnetic attractor 23 and the second magnetic attractor 12 are ring-shaped, with the first magnetic attractor 23 surrounding the light-transmitting panel. This design ensures a more stable and uniform connection between the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20, avoiding potential connection instability issues caused by single-point magnetic attraction. The ring-shaped magnetic attractor layout not only increases the contact area between the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20, enhancing the adsorption force, but also ensures a smooth magnetic connection regardless of the approach direction, improving the convenience and safety of installation. Furthermore, the ring-shaped structure optimizes the magnetic force distribution, ensuring that the connection between the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 remains stable even when encountering significant bumps or steering forces during vehicle operation, preventing detachment due to external factors and further enhancing product reliability.

[0087] Optionally, the attraction force of the second magnetic member 12 is greater than or equal to twice the total weight of the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30. This ensures a stable connection between the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20, and can effectively prevent the decorative body 10 from becoming loose from the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30, even when driving at high speed or encountering bumpy road conditions, thus ensuring driving safety.

[0088] It should be noted that since the main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is the integrated design of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30, while the functions of the adjustment part 30 and the light-emitting part 20 are similar, the functions of the adjustment part 30 and the light-emitting part 20 will not be described again, and the content described above shall prevail.

[0089] Example 3

[0090] The difference from Embodiments 1 and 2 is that, in this embodiment, as... Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the housing of the decorative body 10, the housing of the light-emitting part 20, and the housing of the adjustment part 30 are integrally formed.

[0091] This structural design achieves a high degree of product integration, reducing connections and assembly between components, thereby improving overall sealing and mechanical strength, and lowering the failure rate. The one-piece molded shell not only simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces production costs, but also ensures precise fit and positioning between modules, enhancing the overall aesthetics and appearance of the luminous decorative components. Furthermore, this design provides better protection for the product, such as dust and water resistance, extending the lifespan of the luminous decorative components while improving the user experience, making it more convenient and safer to use.

[0092] It should be noted that the main difference between this embodiment and embodiments one and two is that the integrated design of the decorative body 10, the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 is different, while the functions of the adjustment part 30 and the light-emitting part 20 are similar. Therefore, the individual functions of the adjustment part 30 and the light-emitting part 20 will not be described again, and the content described above shall prevail.

[0093] Example 4

[0094] In a specific embodiment not shown, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 are detachably connected by a snap-fit, and the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are integrally formed.

[0095] Optionally, the housing of the adjusting part 30 has a snap-fit ​​protrusion extending towards the light-emitting part 20, and the housing of the light-emitting part 20 has a snap-fit ​​groove. The snap-fit ​​protrusion extends into the snap-fit ​​groove and engages with it to connect the light-emitting part 20 and the adjusting part 30. It should be noted that by adding snap-fit ​​ribs or other structures at the engagement points of the snap-fit ​​groove and the snap-fit ​​protrusion, a secure connection between the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 can be ensured, preventing them from separating. This structural design facilitates connection, ensures connection stability, reduces the use of structural components, and lowers production costs.

[0096] In this embodiment, since magnetic connection is no longer used, the original first magnetic connector and second magnetic structure can be replaced with ordinary metal conductive connectors to ensure that the adjustment unit 30 can stably supply power to the light-emitting unit 20. Similarly, since the magnetic connector is eliminated, the technical solutions for the shielding cover and nickel-based coating do not need to be further considered. In addition, the structural design other than the magnetic connector can refer to the solution provided in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.

[0097] Example 5

[0098] In a specific embodiment not shown, the difference from embodiment two is that the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are detachably connected by a snap-fit, and the light-emitting part 20 and the adjustment part 30 are integrally formed.

[0099] Optionally, the decorative body 10 has a snap-fit ​​component on the side facing the light-emitting part 20, and the housing of the light-emitting part 20 has a mating groove. The snap-fit ​​component snaps into the mating groove, thereby achieving a snap-fit ​​connection between the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20. It should be noted that by adding structures such as snap-fit ​​ribs at the mating position of the mating groove and the snap-fit ​​component, it can be ensured that the decorative body 10 and the light-emitting part 20 are firmly connected as one unit, preventing them from separating.
