Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle lighting fixture fixing, and in particular to a clip assembly for vehicle lights, a lighting fixture assembly, and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the internal space of automotive lights is becoming increasingly smaller, and clips are the most commonly used constraint structure for automotive lights, serving to constrain installation. Therefore, the structure of the clips significantly impacts the space occupied inside the automotive light. Currently, clips primarily function as single-degree-of-freedom constraints, lacking multi-degree-of-freedom positioning, pre-positioning, and guiding functions. In automotive light constraint systems, they need to be combined with other limiting structures to meet the needs of constraining degrees of freedom, which occupies more space. Therefore, how to reduce the space occupied by clips has become the technical problem that this application aims to solve. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one object of this application is to provide a clip assembly for vehicle lights that can reduce the space occupied by the clip.

[0004] This application also proposes a lighting assembly having the above-mentioned snap-fit ​​component.

[0005] This application also proposes a vehicle having the aforementioned lighting components.

[0006] According to this embodiment, the latching assembly for vehicle lights includes: a latching base having a first sidewall and a second sidewall spaced apart in the width direction, a first stop rib formed on the latching base, and a first abutting surface provided on the front side of the first stop rib; an elastic latching member having one end connected to the latching base, and the other end of the elastic latching member having a second abutting surface spaced apart from the first abutting surface, with a latching space formed between the first abutting surface and the second abutting surface; wherein the other end of the elastic latching member can selectively move in a direction closer to or farther from the latching base to adjust the facing area of ​​the first abutting surface and the second abutting surface in the front-rear direction.

[0007] According to this embodiment, the snap-fit ​​assembly for vehicle lights forms a stable mounting base through the first and second sidewalls of the snap-fit ​​base. The first abutting surface of the first stop rib and the second abutting surface of the elastic snap-fit ​​member enclose a snap-fit ​​space. The end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member away from the base can move in a direction approaching or away from the base. This structural design allows for flexible adjustment of the facing areas of the first and second abutting surfaces in the front-rear direction, thereby achieving positioning functions with multiple degrees of freedom. It meets the requirements of the vehicle light constraint system for degree-of-freedom constraint without the need for additional limiting structures, reducing the space occupied by redundant components from a structural integration perspective. The movable characteristic of the elastic snap-fit ​​member also serves as a pre-positioning and guiding function. During installation, the dynamic adjustment of the facing area guides the assembly alignment, improving installation accuracy. The integrated connection design of the snap-fit ​​base and the elastic snap-fit ​​member simplifies the component composition while ensuring structural strength and snap-fit ​​reliability. This allows the snap-fit ​​to achieve multi-functional constraint while optimizing its overall volume, perfectly adapting to application scenarios where the internal space of vehicle lights is increasingly shrinking.

[0008] According to some embodiments of the snap-fit ​​assembly for vehicle lights, the top of the elastic snap-fit ​​member is formed with a mating slope, which is inclined towards the top in the direction from one end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member to the other end.

[0009] According to some embodiments of the latch assembly for vehicle lights, a clearance hole is formed on the latch base, and the clearance hole is at least partially aligned with the projection of the elastic latching member in the height direction.

[0010] According to some embodiments of the latching assembly for vehicle lights, the first stop rib extends to the edge of the clearance hole.

[0011] According to some embodiments of the latching assembly for vehicle lights, a third abutment surface is provided on the top of the first stop rib or the top of the elastic latching member, a second stop rib is formed on the bottom of the latching base, a fourth abutment surface is formed on the bottom of the second stop rib, and the third abutment surface is parallel to the fourth abutment surface.

[0012] According to some embodiments of the snap-fit ​​assembly for vehicle lights, a first guide surface is formed on the top of one end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member, and a second guide surface is formed on the bottom front end of the second stop rib and / or the bottom front end of the snap-fit ​​base. The first guide surface and the second guide surface extend at an angle away from each other in a rearward direction.

[0013] According to some embodiments of the latching assembly for vehicle lights, the second stop rib is constructed as a plurality of ribs spaced apart in the width direction.

[0014] According to some embodiments of the snap-fit ​​assembly for vehicle lights, a deformation section is provided in the middle of the elastic snap-fit ​​member, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the deformation section is smaller than the cross-sectional areas of one end and the other end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member.

[0015] The lighting components according to this embodiment are briefly described below.

[0016] The lighting assembly according to this embodiment includes: a housing and a light-emitting unit. One of the housing and the light-emitting unit is provided with a mating hole, and the other of the housing and the light-emitting unit is provided with a snap-fit ​​assembly. The snap-fit ​​assembly is constructed as any of the snap-fit ​​assemblies in the above embodiments.

[0017] According to this embodiment, the lighting assembly connects the housing and the light-emitting unit using the aforementioned snap-fit ​​component. The snap-fit ​​component's built-in multi-degree-of-freedom positioning, pre-positioning, and guiding functions allow the housing and light-emitting unit to meet full-degree-of-freedom constraint requirements without the need for additional limiting structures. This significantly reduces the space occupied by auxiliary limiting components within the lighting fixture, effectively adapting to the trend of compact internal structural design. The elastic snap-fit ​​component can adjust the front-to-back facing area of ​​the first and second contact surfaces to achieve precise guidance and pre-positioning during assembly, reducing the difficulty of aligning the housing and light-emitting unit, improving assembly efficiency while ensuring connection accuracy, and preventing positional displacement of the light-emitting unit or damage to the housing's sealing performance due to assembly deviations. Furthermore, the integrated structural design of the snap-fit ​​component balances connection strength and installation flexibility. While simplifying the overall structure of the lighting assembly, it ensures the stability of the connection between the housing and the light-emitting unit, reducing the risk of malfunctions caused by loose components after assembly, and guaranteeing the long-term reliable operation of the lighting assembly.

[0018] The vehicle according to this embodiment is briefly described below.

[0019] The vehicle according to this embodiment includes the lighting assembly of any of the above embodiments. Since the vehicle according to this embodiment is equipped with the lighting assembly of the above embodiments, the vehicle according to this embodiment, by adopting the above lighting assembly and optimizing the space of the snap-fit ​​components in the lighting assembly, makes the overall structure of the headlight more compact, reserving sufficient installation space for other functional components inside the vehicle cabin, adapting to the design development needs of vehicle integration and lightweighting, and improving the rationality of the overall vehicle layout. The precise assembly characteristics brought by the snap-fit ​​components can shorten the assembly time of the lights during the final assembly of the vehicle, reduce the probability of rework caused by assembly errors, and thus improve vehicle production efficiency and control manufacturing costs. At the same time, the high stability of the snap-fit ​​connection in the lighting assembly can ensure that the light-emitting unit can maintain a fixed position and sealing performance even when facing complex working conditions such as bumps and vibrations during vehicle operation, ensuring the stability and reliability of the lighting effect, providing basic support for vehicle driving safety, and the simplified lighting structure can reduce the probability of failure and reduce the subsequent maintenance costs and frequency of the vehicle.

[0023] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0024] The following is for reference. Figures 1-4 Description of a snap-fit ​​assembly 100 for vehicle lights according to an embodiment of this application.

[0025] According to this embodiment, the latching assembly 100 for vehicle lights includes: a latching base 1 and an elastic latching member 2. The latching base 1 has a first sidewall 11 and a second sidewall 12 spaced apart in the width direction. A first stop rib 13 is formed on the latching base 1. A first abutting surface 131 is provided on the front side of the first stop rib 13. One end of the elastic latching member 2 is connected to the latching base 1, and the other end of the elastic latching member 2 is provided with a second abutting surface 21 spaced apart from the first abutting surface 131. A latching space 3 is formed between the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 21. The other end of the elastic latching member 2 can be selectively moved in a direction closer to or farther from the latching base 1 to adjust the facing area of ​​the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 21 in the front-rear direction.

[0026] It should be noted that the snap-fit ​​space 3 is suitable for snap-fitting with structures such as the mating hole 20 on the lamp.

[0027] The snap-fit ​​base 1 of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 has a first sidewall 11 and a second sidewall 12 spaced apart in the width direction, providing a stable installation support base for the entire snap-fit ​​assembly 100 and ensuring that the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 can be firmly assembled inside the vehicle light. At the same time, it provides a reliable bearing platform for the setting of the first stop rib 13, realizing the limitation of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 in the width direction. The first stop rib 13 formed on the snap-fit ​​base 1 has a first abutment surface 131 on its front side. One end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2 is connected to the snap-fit ​​base 1, and the other end has a second abutment surface 21 spaced apart from the first abutment surface 131. The first abutment surface 131 and the second abutment surface 21 naturally enclose to form a snap-fit ​​space 3. This snap-fit ​​space 3 is the core area for realizing component constraint, providing a basis for accommodating and limiting the constrained component. The end of the elastic snap-fit ​​2 away from the snap-fit ​​base 1 can be selectively moved in the direction of approaching or moving away from the snap-fit ​​base 1, so that the facing area of ​​the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 21 in the front-back direction can be dynamically adjusted according to the assembly requirements. The adjustability of the facing area enables the snap-fit ​​space 3 to adapt to the constraint range and constraint strength of the constrained component.

[0028] When the constrained component enters the snap-fit ​​space 3, adjusting the moving direction of the elastic snap-fit ​​element 2 changes the facing area, effectively limiting the displacement of the constrained component in the vertical, horizontal, and front-back directions. This reduces the installation space and structural occupancy required by additional limiting structures, thus lowering the overall space occupancy of the snap-fit ​​system. The snap-fit ​​base 1 and the elastic snap-fit ​​element 2 adopt a direct connection structure, eliminating the need for additional connecting parts or adapter structures. While ensuring the stability of the connection and structural strength, this simplifies the overall structure of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100, allowing for a tighter layout of all parts of the assembly. In short, a stable installation base is formed by the first sidewall 11 and the second sidewall 12 of the snap-fit ​​base 1. The first abutting surface 131 of the first stop rib 13 and the second abutting surface 21 of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2 enclose the snap-fit ​​space 3. The end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2 away from the base can move in the direction of approaching or moving away from the base. This structural design allows the facing area of ​​the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 21 in the front-rear direction to be flexibly adjusted, thereby realizing the positioning function of multiple degrees of freedom. It can meet the requirements of the vehicle headlight constraint system for degree of freedom constraint without the need for additional limiting structures, and reduces the space occupation of redundant components from the structural integration level. The movable characteristic of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2 also has the functions of pre-positioning and guiding. During the installation process, the dynamic adjustment of the facing area guides the assembly alignment and improves the installation accuracy. The integrated connection design of the snap-fit ​​base 1 and the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2 simplifies the component composition while ensuring structural strength and snap-fit ​​reliability. This allows the snap-fit ​​to achieve multi-functional constraint while optimizing its overall volume, perfectly adapting to the application scenario where the internal space of the vehicle headlight is increasingly shrinking.

[0029] According to some embodiments of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 for vehicle lights, the top of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2 is formed with a mating slope 22, which is inclined towards the top in the direction from one end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2 to the other end.

[0030] The mating ramp 22 at the top of the elastic snap-fit ​​component 2 slopes upwards from one end to the other. During assembly, the snap-fit ​​component first contacts the mating ramp 22. The slope angle allows the assembly force to be decomposed into a tangential force along the ramp and a normal force that drives the elastic snap-fit ​​component 2 to deform. This guides the snap-fit ​​component to slide precisely into the snap-fit ​​space 3 enclosed by the first abutment surface 131 and the second abutment surface 21, avoiding jamming or misalignment during assembly and significantly improving the smoothness of the assembly operation. At the same time, the guiding effect of the mating ramp 22 works in conjunction with the multi-degree-of-freedom positioning function of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100, enabling pre-positioning during the sliding of the snap-fit ​​component and further improving the positioning accuracy of subsequent snap-fit ​​fixing.

[0031] According to some embodiments of the latch assembly 100 for vehicle lights, a clearance hole 15 is formed on the latch base 1, and the clearance hole 15 is at least partially opposite to the projection of the elastic latch 2 in the height direction.

[0032] The clearance hole 15 on the latch base 1 is at least partially aligned with the elastic latching member 2 in the height direction, providing clearance space for the deformation of the elastic latching member 2. When the elastic latching member 2 performs latching or unlocking actions, it needs to move in the direction of approaching or moving away from the latch base 1. The clearance hole 15 avoids interference between the elastic latching member 2 and the latch base 1 during deformation, ensuring sufficient deformation stroke and stable movement trajectory. This makes the adjustment of the facing area of ​​the first abutment surface 131 and the second abutment surface 21 smoother, thereby ensuring the reliable realization of multi-degree-of-freedom positioning and pre-positioning functions. The sufficient deformation stroke makes the force distribution of the elastic latching member 2 more uniform, reducing local stress concentration and lowering the risk of fatigue damage caused by repeated deformation during long-term use. This extends the service life of the latch assembly 100. In addition, the clearance hole 15 reduces the amount of base material used, which to a certain extent reduces the weight of the assembly and improves the economy and practicality of the overall structure.

[0033] According to some embodiments of the latch assembly 100 for vehicle lights, a first stop rib 13 extends to the edge of the clearance hole 15.

[0034] The first stop rib 13 extends to the edge of the clearance hole 15, strengthening the structural strength of the buckle base 1 in the area of ​​the clearance hole 15. Although the clearance hole 15 provides deformation space for the elastic snap-fit ​​2, it also weakens the load-bearing capacity of the corresponding area of ​​the base. After the first stop rib 13 extends to the edge of the hole, it forms a support structure distributed along the edge of the hole, effectively dispersing the stress of the base when it is subjected to force, preventing the base from deforming or breaking due to the presence of the clearance hole 15, and ensuring the overall structural stability of the buckle assembly 100. As the load-bearing foundation of the first abutment surface 131, the structure of the first stop rib 13 extending to the edge of the clearance hole 15 makes the force-bearing support range of the first abutment surface 131 cover the edge of the hole, reducing the suspended area of ​​the first abutment surface 131, making the force when the snap-fitted part contacts the first abutment surface 131 more uniform, and avoiding deformation of the abutment surface caused by local stress concentration.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the latch assembly 100 for vehicle lights, a third abutment surface 132 is provided on the top of the first stop rib 13 or the top of the elastic latch 2, a second stop rib 14 is formed on the bottom of the latch base 1, a fourth abutment surface 141 is formed on the bottom of the second stop rib 14, and the third abutment surface 132 is parallel to the fourth abutment surface 141.

[0036] The third abutment surface 132 at the top of the first stop rib 13 or the top of the elastic snap fastener 2 is parallel to the fourth abutment surface 141 at the bottom of the second stop rib 14 of the snap fastener base 1, forming a bidirectional constraint structure in the height direction. The third abutment surface 132 limits the snapped part from the top, and the fourth abutment surface 141 limits the snapped part from the bottom. The two parallel abutment surfaces jointly define the installation reference range of the snapped part in the height direction, directly achieving height-direction limitation, preventing the snapped part from moving or shifting in this direction, and improving the multi-degree-of-freedom constraint system of the snap fastener assembly 100.

[0037] According to some embodiments of the latch assembly 100 for vehicle lights, a first guide surface 23 is formed on the top of one end of the elastic latch 2, and a second guide surface 142 is formed on the bottom front end of the second stop rib 14 and / or the bottom front end of the latch base 1. The first guide surface 23 and the second guide surface 142 extend at an angle away from each other in a rearward direction.

[0038] The first guide surface 23 at the top of one end of the elastic snap-fit ​​component 2 and the second guide surface 142 at the bottom front end of the second stop rib 14 and / or the bottom front end of the snap-fit ​​base 1 extend backwards at an angle to each other, forming a flared guide structure at the assembly entrance. During assembly, the snap-fit ​​component approaches the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 from the front. The two opposing inclined guide surfaces first contact the snap-fit ​​component, and their inclination angle forms a guide trajectory, guiding the snap-fit ​​component into the height reference range defined by the third abutment surface 132 and the fourth abutment surface 141. At the same time, the snap-fit ​​component is guided to align with the snap-fit ​​space 3 enclosed by the first abutment surface 131 and the second abutment surface 21, achieving dual pre-guidance in both the assembly direction and height direction, significantly reducing the risk of alignment deviation. The opposing inclination of the guide surfaces decomposes the assembly force along the inclined surface into a pushing force along the assembly direction and a lateral force for auxiliary positioning, avoiding hard contact or jamming between the snap-fit ​​component and the assembly, making the assembly process smoother and less strenuous.

[0039] According to some embodiments of the latching assembly 100 for vehicle lights, the second stop ribs 14 are configured as a plurality of spaced-apart ribs in the width direction.

[0040] Multiple second stop ribs 14 are spaced apart in the width direction, forming a multi-point support and limiting structure distributed along the width direction. The fourth abutment surfaces 141 of the multiple second stop ribs 14 jointly support the bottom of the snapped part, restricting the lateral movement of the snapped part from different points in the width direction. This improves the constraint dimension of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 in the width direction, enabling the snapped part to obtain more comprehensive fixation in the multi-degree-of-freedom positioning system, avoiding positioning offset caused by the lack of effective limiting in the width direction, and improving the overall snap-fit ​​stability.

[0041] According to some embodiments of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 for vehicle lights, a deformable section 24 is provided in the middle of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the deformable section 24 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​one end and the other end of the elastic snap-fit ​​member 2.

[0042] The cross-sectional area of ​​the deformation section 24 in the middle of the elastic snap-fit ​​component 2 is smaller than that at both ends, making this area a weak point in the mechanical structure of the elastic snap-fit ​​component 2. It is more prone to directional deformation under stress. The cross-sectional design of the deformation section 24 ensures that the deformation of the elastic snap-fit ​​component 2 is concentrated in the middle area when subjected to assembly or unlocking forces. This avoids stress concentration at the connection points between the two ends and the snap-fit ​​base 1, as well as at the top snap-fit ​​point, due to deformation. This ensures that the connection strength and snap-fit ​​reliability are not affected, while also guaranteeing the stability and repeatability of the deformation stroke. The smooth deformation characteristics allow the elastic snap-fit ​​component 2 to respond to external forces. During assembly, the deformation in the middle smoothly adjusts the opposing areas of the second abutment surface 21 and the first abutment surface 131 to complete the snap-fit ​​fixation. During unlocking, it can easily reset, reducing operational difficulty and improving the flexibility of the snap-fit ​​and unlocking actions.

[0043] The lighting components according to this embodiment are briefly described below.

[0044] The lighting assembly according to this embodiment includes: a housing 10 and a light-emitting unit. One of the housing 10 and the light-emitting unit is provided with a mating hole 20, and the other of the housing 10 and the light-emitting unit is provided with a snap-fit ​​assembly 100. The snap-fit ​​assembly 100 is constructed as any of the snap-fit ​​assembly 100 in the above embodiments.

[0045] According to this embodiment, the lighting assembly uses the aforementioned snap-fit ​​component 100 to connect the housing 10 and the light-emitting unit. The snap-fit ​​component 100's built-in multi-degree-of-freedom positioning, pre-positioning, and guiding functions allow the housing 10 and the light-emitting unit to meet full-degree-of-freedom constraint requirements without the need for additional limiting structures. This significantly reduces the space occupied by auxiliary limiting components within the lighting fixture, effectively adapting to the trend of compact internal structural design. The elastic snap-fit ​​component 2 of the snap-fit ​​component 100 can adjust the front-to-back facing area of ​​the first abutment surface 131 and the second abutment surface 21 to achieve precise guidance and pre-positioning during assembly, reducing the difficulty of assembling and aligning the housing 10 and the light-emitting unit, improving assembly efficiency while ensuring connection accuracy, and preventing positional displacement of the light-emitting unit or damage to the sealing performance of the housing 10 due to assembly deviations. Furthermore, the integrated structural design of the snap-fit ​​component 100 balances connection strength and installation flexibility. While simplifying the overall structural composition of the lighting assembly, it ensures the stability of the connection between the housing 10 and the light-emitting unit, reduces the risk of malfunctions caused by loose components after assembly, and guarantees the long-term reliable operation of the lighting assembly.

The precise assembly characteristics brought by the snap-fit ​​component 100 can shorten the assembly time of the lighting during the vehicle final assembly process, reduce the probability of rework caused by assembly errors, and thus improve vehicle production efficiency and control manufacturing costs. At the same time, the high stability of the snap-fit ​​connection in the lighting assembly can ensure that the light-emitting unit can maintain a fixed position and sealing performance even when facing complex working conditions such as bumps and vibrations during vehicle operation, ensuring the stability and reliability of the lighting effect, providing basic support for vehicle driving safety, and the simplified lighting structure can reduce the probability of failure and reduce the subsequent maintenance costs and frequency of the vehicle.
