Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive interior ambient lighting technology, and in particular relates to an ambient lighting installation component, a car door, and a car. Background Technology

[0002] To provide a better lighting atmosphere experience for drivers and passengers, ambient lighting is often incorporated into automotive interior design, particularly in the armrest area. Currently, ambient lighting in door armrest areas typically employs a light guide structure, with the luminous surface of the light-emitting component hidden on the side of the armrest furthest from the driver and passengers. The light emitted from this surface is diffused through the door trim panel to achieve the desired lighting effect.

[0003] However, existing solutions for concealing the light-emitting surface have drawbacks. These solutions only consider the lighting atmosphere experience when passengers are in a normal seating position. From certain perspectives, such as when passengers are resting against the door panel, the light that would normally illuminate the door panel will shine directly into the eyes of the passengers, causing glare. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides an ambient light mounting assembly, a car door, and a car to solve the technical problem of dazzling ambient lights in the car from special viewing angles, and to achieve the effect of completely hiding the light-emitting surface of the ambient light and preventing glare.

[0005] According to one aspect of this application, an ambient lighting mounting assembly is provided for automotive interiors, comprising: A light-emitting component, including a light-transmitting plate and a light-shielding plate disposed thereon; A shielding structure is located on the first side of the light-emitting component and connected to the light-transmitting plate; A side panel is located on the second side of the light-emitting component and is connected to the light-shielding plate. The side panels and shielding structure are used to limit the field of vision of the driver and passengers, while the light-transmitting panels and light-shielding panels are used to limit the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting components so that the light-emitting surface is outside the field of vision.

[0006] In an optional embodiment of this application, the upper end of the side plate is provided with a side end protruding toward the first side, and the shielding structure includes an edge close to the side plate. The intersection of any line connecting the side end and the edge with the light-emitting component is located outside the light-emitting surface.

[0007] In an optional embodiment of this application, the light-transmitting plate is made of transparent material and is disposed on top of the light-emitting component. The light-emitting surface is the upper surface of the light-transmitting plate. The light-transmitting plate is strip-shaped and its extension direction is parallel to the shielding structure. The light-shielding plate is strip-shaped and made of non-transparent material and is disposed on top of the light-emitting component alongside the light-transmitting plate. The intersection of the line connecting the side end and the edge with the light-emitting component is located on the light-shielding plate.

[0008] In an optional embodiment of this application, the light-shielding plate and the light-transmitting plate are integrally molded by two-color injection molding.

[0009] In an optional embodiment of this application, the light-emitting component further includes a lamp head and a light guide. The lamp head is positioned below the light-transmitting plate. The light guide is positioned between the lamp head and the light-transmitting plate, with the light-transmitting plate covering the light guide. The first end of the light guide is connected to the lamp head and is used to transmit the light emitted from the lamp head to the light-transmitting plate.

[0010] In an optional embodiment of this application, the light-emitting component further includes a bracket disposed below the light-transmitting plate. The bracket has a groove extending parallel to the light-transmitting plate, and a light guide passes through the groove. The light-transmitting plate is engaged with the bracket.

[0011] In an optional embodiment of this application, the light-emitting component also includes a light-shielding cover, which covers the connection between the lamp head and the light guide and is snapped into the bracket. The light-shielding cover is used to prevent light emitted from the lamp head from leaking out from the connection.

[0012] In an optional embodiment of this application, the two sides of the bracket are respectively engaged with the side uprights and the shielding structure, and the bracket is partially embedded inside the shielding structure.

[0013] According to another aspect of this application, a vehicle door is also provided, the vehicle door including any of the aforementioned ambient lighting mounting components, the side panel being a door trim panel, and the shielding structure being a door armrest.

[0014] According to another aspect of this application, an automobile is also provided, including the aforementioned door.

[0015] In summary, the ambient lighting mounting components, vehicle doors, and automobiles provided in this application have at least the following beneficial effects: The embodiments of this application limit the viewing angle of the occupants by placing the light-emitting component between the side panel and the shielding structure, and limit the light-emitting surface of the component by setting a light-shielding plate and a light-transmitting plate on the light-emitting component. This ensures the light-emitting surface is outside the occupants' viewing angle. Specifically, the height of the shielding structure can be set higher than the height of the light-emitting component to block the light emitted from its surface, preventing direct light from shining into the eyes of occupants in a normal sitting position. The surface of the side panel can diffusely reflect the light emitted from the surface, allowing the occupants to see the ambient lighting emitted by the surface. Alternatively, the side panel can be set higher than the shielding structure and tilted to one side to prevent the occupants' heads from moving into the direct range of the light-emitting surface, thus preventing direct light from shining into their eyes. Therefore, the technical solution of this application can completely hide the light-emitting surface of the interior ambient lighting and prevent glare. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. Although the description of this utility model will be presented in conjunction with preferred embodiments, this does not mean that the features of this utility model are limited to this embodiment. On the contrary, the purpose of describing the utility model in conjunction with the embodiments is to cover other options or modifications that may be derived based on the claims of this utility model. To provide a deep understanding of this utility model, many specific details will be included in the following description. This utility model may also be implemented without using these details. Furthermore, to avoid confusion or obscuring the focus of this utility model, some specific details will be omitted in the description. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of an ambient light mounting assembly provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is an overall structural view of a lighting assembly provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0020] According to one aspect of this application, an ambient lighting mounting assembly is provided for automotive interiors, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the ambient lighting mounting assembly includes a light-emitting component 10, a shielding structure 20, and a side panel 30. (As shown...) Figure 2As shown, the light-emitting component 10 includes a light-transmitting plate 11 and a light-shielding plate 12 disposed thereon. A shielding structure 20 is disposed on the first side of the light-emitting component 10 and connected to the light-transmitting plate 11, and the height of the shielding structure 20 is greater than the height of the light-emitting component 10. A side plate 30 is disposed on the second side of the light-emitting component 10 and connected to the light-shielding plate 12, and the height of the side plate 30 is greater than the height of the shielding structure 20 to reflect the light emitted by the light-emitting component 10. The side plate 30 and the shielding structure 20 are used to define the viewing angle range of the occupants. The upper end of the side plate 30 is inclined towards the side where the shielding structure 20 is located. The light-transmitting plate 11 and the light-shielding plate 12 are used to define the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting component so that the light-emitting surface is outside the viewing angle range. In this application, the terms "first side," "second side," etc., are used only for distinguishing descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The first side is the side where the occupants are located, and the second side is the side away from the occupants. It should be noted that the term "upper end" indicates the orientation or positional relationship based on the attached... Figure 1 The orientation or positional relationship shown, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the utility model product is usually placed during use, is only for the purpose of facilitating the description of the utility model and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the utility model.

[0021] By employing the above technical solution, placing the light-emitting component 10 between the side panel 30 and the shielding structure 20 can limit the viewing angle range of the driver and passengers. By providing a light-shielding plate 12 and a light-transmitting plate 11 on the light-emitting component 10, the light-emitting surface of the component can be limited, ensuring that the light-emitting surface is outside the viewing angle range of the driver and passengers. Specifically, the height of the shielding structure 20 can be set higher than the height of the light-emitting component 10 to block the light emitted from the light-emitting surface of the component 10, preventing the light emitted from the light-emitting surface from directly hitting the eyes of the driver and passengers in a normal sitting position. The surface of the side panel 30 can diffusely reflect the light emitted from the light-emitting surface, allowing the driver and passengers to see the ambient lighting emitted from the light-emitting surface. Alternatively, the side panel 30 can be specifically set higher than the shielding structure 20 and tilted to one side of the shielding structure 20 to prevent the driver and passengers' eyes from moving into the direct range of the light-emitting surface, thus preventing the light emitted from the light-emitting surface from directly hitting the eyes of the driver and passengers. Therefore, the technical solution of this application can achieve the effect of completely hiding the light-emitting surface of the interior ambient lighting and preventing glare.

[0022] As a further preferred embodiment, based on the above-mentioned solution, the specific embodiments of this application may also include one or more of the following additions or combinations.

[0023] Furthermore, the upper end of the side plate 30 is provided with a side end 31 protruding towards the first side, that is, the side end 31 protrudes towards the side where the shielding structure 20 is located. Figure 1As shown, the side end 31 is located near the upper end of the side panel 30. The shielding structure 20 includes an edge 21 near the side panel 30. The intersection of any line connecting the side end 31 and the edge 21 with the light-emitting component 10 is located outside the light-emitting surface. In other words, the upper limit of the illumination range of the light emitted from the light-emitting surface on the side panel 30 is below the side end 31. When the driver or passenger puts their head close to the upper end of the side panel 30, the light emitted from the light-emitting surface cannot directly shine into the driver's or passenger's eyes. Figure 1 The middle line of sight B is the line of sight for drivers and passengers to observe the ambient lighting reflected by the side panel in a normal sitting position. That is, drivers and passengers can only see the light reflected by the side panel 30 in a normal sitting position, so as to avoid the light emitted from the light-emitting surface shining directly into the eyes of drivers and passengers. Figure 1 The central line of sight A is the line of sight through which the driver and passengers observe the light-emitting component 10 from a specific angle. Even when the driver and passengers' heads are close to the side end 31 to observe the light-emitting component 10, the light-emitting surface cannot be seen. Therefore, the driver and passengers cannot observe the light-emitting surface from any angle, thus achieving complete concealment of the light-emitting surface from any angle.

[0024] Furthermore, such as Figure 2As shown, both the light-transmitting plate 11 and the light-shielding plate 12 have a strip-shaped light-emitting surface, which is the upper surface of the light-transmitting plate 11. The light-transmitting plate 11 is made of transparent material and is disposed on top of the light-emitting component 10, with its extension direction parallel to the shielding structure 20. By setting the light-transmitting plate 11 to extend parallel to the shielding structure 20, the light output from the light-emitting surface can be dispersed on the surface of the side plate 30, forming a large-area light distribution. The light-shielding plate 12 is made of non-transparent material and is disposed alongside the light-transmitting plate 11 on top of the light-emitting component 10. Preferably, the upper surface of the light-transmitting plate 11 is coplanar with the upper surface of the light-shielding plate 12, and the light-shielding plate 12 and the light-transmitting plate 11 preferably extend in a horizontal direction. The transparent material used to make the light-transmitting plate 11 can be acrylic, which has a light transmittance ≥92%, is resistant to ultraviolet aging, has a high surface hardness (Mohs 3H), is easy to injection mold, and is suitable for luxury vehicles with high requirements for surface wear resistance. The transparent material used to make the light-transmitting plate 11 can also be optical-grade PC (Polycarbonate), which has strong impact resistance (notched impact > 60kJ / m²), a wide temperature range (-40℃~135℃), and a light transmittance of 88%~90%, making it suitable for vehicles requiring vibration resistance / wide temperature range environments. Alternatively, the transparent material used to make the light-transmitting plate 11 can be COP (Cyclo Olefin Polymer), which has ultra-low birefringence, a light transmittance > 90%, and is resistant to chemical solvents, making it suitable for high-end vehicles (but at a higher cost). The material used to make the light-shielding plate 12 can be ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) or PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate). Both ABS and PBT contain carbon black doped within them for light-shielding purposes. The light-shielding plate 12 is positioned near the side panel 30, and the light-transmitting plate 11 is positioned near the shielding structure 20. The intersection of any line connecting the side end 31 and the edge 21 with the light-emitting component 10 is located on the light-shielding plate 12, such as... Figure 1 As shown in line of sight A, from a special angle, the driver and passengers can only see the sunshade 12 and not the light-transmitting panel 11.

[0025] Furthermore, the light-shielding plate 12 and the light-transmitting plate 11 are integrally molded using two-color injection molding, thereby ensuring a firm connection between the two and preventing light leakage caused by separation of the two plates. To improve the quality of the two-color injection molding of the light-shielding plate 12 and the light-transmitting plate 11 and ensure a firm connection, the transparent material of the light-transmitting plate 11 is preferably acrylic, and the non-transparent material of the light-shielding plate 12 is preferably black ABS (with 20%~30% carbon black added).

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figure 2As shown, the light-emitting component 10 also includes a lamp head 13 and a light guide 14. The lamp head 13 is located below the light-transmitting plate 11. The light guide 14 is located between the lamp head 13 and the light-transmitting plate 11, with the light-transmitting plate 11 covering the light guide 14. The head of the light guide 14 is connected to the lamp head 13 and is used to conduct the light emitted by the lamp head 13 to the light-transmitting plate 11. The lamp head 13 is specifically a micro-LED module, which integrates red, green, and blue LED chips and generates a full-color spectrum by adjusting the current ratio of the three LEDs. There are two lamp heads 13, which can be configured to emit different colors of light to adjust the spectral distribution illuminating the side plate 30. The light guide 14 is specifically a light-conducting component made of a high-transmittance polymer. Light enters the interior of the light guide 14 from its head and exits onto the light-transmitting plate 11 from its outer peripheral surface. Covering the light guide 14 with the light-transmitting plate 11 improves the light-receiving efficiency of the light-transmitting plate 11.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the light-emitting component 10 also includes a bracket 15 disposed below the light-transmitting plate 11. The bracket 15 has a groove 16 extending parallel to the light-transmitting plate 11, and the light guide 14 passes through the groove 16. The light-transmitting plate 11 is engaged with the bracket 15. The bracket 15 is connected to the side plate 30 and the shielding structure 20 through a snap-fit ​​structure disposed on the bracket 15 to fix the position of the light guide 14 and the light-transmitting plate 11.

[0028] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the light-emitting component 10 also includes a light-shielding cover 17, which covers the connection between the lamp head 13 and the light guide 14 and is snapped into the bracket 15. The light-shielding cover 17 is used to prevent the light emitted by the lamp head 13 from leaking into the driver's cabin from the connection and affecting the lighting atmosphere perceived by the driver and passengers. The light-shielding cover 17 can also improve the light utilization rate and improve the connection between the lamp head 13 and the bracket 15.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bracket 15 connects between the side panel 30 and the shielding structure 20. Specifically, both sides of the bracket 15 are respectively engaged with the side panel 30 and the shielding structure 20, and the bracket 15 is partially embedded inside the shielding structure 20. To improve space utilization, the lamp head 13 and part of the light shield 17 can be embedded in the injection-molded part of the shielding structure 20 through a back-mounting method and then welded and fixed. Here, "back-mounting" specifically refers to mounting from the side closer to the body sheet metal outwards, opposite to the "front" (cabin side) operation visible to passengers. Embedding the lamp head 13 inside the shielding structure 20 facilitates the connection of the lamp head 13 to the power supply.

[0030] According to another aspect of this application, a vehicle door is also provided, comprising any of the aforementioned ambient lighting mounting components, wherein the side panel 30 is a door trim panel and the shielding structure 20 is a door armrest. The luminous surface of the light-emitting component 10 is disposed between the door trim panel and the door armrest. The height of the door armrest is greater than the height of the luminous surface to block the light emitted from the luminous surface from directly shining into the eyes of the driver and passengers. The height of the door trim panel is greater than the height of the door armrest to diffuse the light output from the luminous surface, thereby enhancing the lighting atmosphere inside the driver's cabin. The upper end of the door trim panel is inclined towards the side where the door armrest is located to prevent the driver's or passengers' heads from moving into the direct range of the light output from the luminous surface, thus avoiding glare caused by the light from the luminous surface directly shining into the eyes of the driver and passengers.

[0031] According to another aspect of this application, an automobile is also provided, including the door described in any of the above embodiments.

[0032] Although embodiments of this application have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting this application. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of this application.
