That is, the conventional roof lamp is normally mounted on the top of a vehicle by the user himself.However, a drilling method is required for mounting the roof lamp on the top of a vehicle. This processing can lead to a side effect, which impairs the functionality and durability of the complete vehicle. Furthermore, the roof lamp power cables and signal cables remain open at the car roof and are susceptible to aging, which is a safety risk. Moreover, the roof lamp is not subjected to any relevant test control, so that no safety guarantee is present.In that case, a suitable roof light and vehicle are provided, wherein the roof light comprises a mounting frame and at least one light body, wherein the light body is inserted within the mounting frame. That is, the mounting frame encloses the outer periphery of the lamp body. An included angle is formed between the first direction and the second direction because the lamp body and the mounting frame are joined not only by the first connector in a first direction but also by the second connector in a second direction. In the mounting frame, the lamp body is fixed in different directions via the first connector and the second connector. The complex of the luminaire body and the mounting frame can then be mounted on a top with the second connection piece. This may provide a reliable robust connection of the lamp body to the mounting frame in order to increase the reliability and safety of the roof lamp and thus maintain the functionality and longevity of the vehicle.Further objects, advantages, features and possible applications of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of the exemplary embodiments with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto. All other embodiments that are made without any creativity and innovation based on the present utility model fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.FIG. 1 shows a partial view of the vehicle according to the invention from an angle of view. FIG. 2 shows a partial view of the vehicle according to the invention from a different angle of view. FIG. 3 shows a partial sectional view of the vehicle according to the invention.In Figs. 1 and 2 a part of the vehicle according to the invention which is situated in the vicinity of the car roof is illustrated. The vehicle is equipped with the roof lamp 100, the roof lamp 100 being attached to the car roof, that is, on the outside of the car roof.The illuminated roof lamp 100 may illuminate the body and the environment of the vehicle. For example, the roof lamp 100 may be illuminated simultaneously with the headlights. For example, in the dark and sparsely populated area where the high beam is not sufficient to illuminate the road, the roof light 100 may light up with the high beam simultaneously to clearly illuminate the road in front of the vehicle. Or, when parking the vehicle, the roof lamp 100 may light up to more easily locate the vehicle or to provide ambient lighting.The roof lamp 100 can be factory mounted to the vehicle before shipment, as needed. As a result, standardization of the assembly process of the roof lamps 100 can be realized in order to mount the roof lamps 100 reliably in a robust manner. The roof lights 100 can be mounted, for example, on off-road trucks, light truck trucks or SUVs.As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the vehicle includes a hood 200 on the car roof, and the roof lamp 100 is mounted on the hood 200. In the vehicle model shown by way of example, the top 200 comprises a front cladding 210, the front side of which adjoins the front windshield 300 of the vehicle and the rear side of which adjoins the sliding roof 400 of the vehicle. The roof lamp 100 can then be attached to the front trim 210.The front trim 210 includes an outer trim 211 and an inner trim 212, the outer trim 211 being located on the outermost side of the vehicle, while the inner trim 212 is located on the side of the outer trim 211 facing the vehicle interior. The exterior trim 211 may serve as an appearance of the vehicle. The inner liner 212 may not only serve as a mounting bracket for supporting the outer liner 211, but also secure the strength and reliability of the front liner 210. Further, the inner liner 212 may serve as an interior decoration piece of the vehicle.In the front cowl 210, the outer cowl 211 may further include a cowl front wall 2111 and a cowl rear wall 2112, the cowl front wall 2111 and the cowl rear wall 2112 being laid out one after another from front to rear. The front glass 300 is joined to the cowl front wall 2111, while the cowl rear wall 2112 is joined to the sunroof 400. Since the cowl rear wall 2112 is closer to the car roof as compared to the cowl front wall 2111, the drop-off of the cowl rear wall 2112 normally remains smoother. Therefore, the roof lamp 100 can be mounted to the cowl rear wall 2112.Further, the hood 200 may further include an inner support plate 213 that is disposed on the vehicle interior side of the inner panel 212 to support the inner panel 212 and the outer panel 211. The inner support plate 213 can be manufactured from sheet metal, for example. The front end of the inner panel 213 may protrude to the front of the cowl front wall 2111, while the edges of the front glass 300 are supported by the front end of the inner panel 213. The rear end of the inner panel 213 may protrude to the rear of the cowl rear wall 2112, while the edges of the sunroof 400 are supported by the rear end of the inner panel 213.In Fig. 4, an enlarged view of the portion A of Fig. 3 is shown. Referring to FIG. 4, the roof lamp 100 includes a mounting frame 110 and at least one lamp body 120 attached to the mounting frame 110. The lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 are assembled into a complex, which can then be mounted on the top 200 and on the front panel 210 of the top 200, respectively.The lamp body 120 includes a lighting surface through which the light output from the lamp body 120 is radiated to the outside. The mounting frame 110 encloses the outer periphery of the lamp body 120, wherein the luminous surface of the lamp body 120 remains open outside the mounting frame 110. The mounting frame 110 may be, for example, of a box-like structure and may be placed on the rear side of the lamp body 120 (the side of the lamp body 120 facing away from the lighting surface), the mounting frame 110 covering the outer wall surface of the lamp body 120 while leaving the lighting surface of the lamp body 120 open.Here, the luminaire body 120 is surrounded on the one hand by the mounting frame 110, that is to say installed within the mounting frame 110. As a result, the luminaire body 120 can be inserted comfortably in the mounting frame 110, namely with a greater contact area between the mounting frame 110 and the luminaire body 120, in order to create a robust connection between the luminaire body 120 and the mounting frame 110. On the other hand, the mounting frame 110 does not cover the light emitting surface of the lamp body 120, so that the light emitting surface of the lamp body remains open to the outside. Thereby, the light output from the lamp body 120 is not prevented by the mounting frame 110.The fastening of the roof lamp 100 to the top 200 can be achieved by fixedly connecting the lamp body 120 of the roof lamp 100 to the mounting frame 110 via the first connecting piece 130 (see FIG. 4 ). The first connector 130 may connect the lamp body 120 to the mounting frame 110 along the first direction.Between the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110, a second connector 140 is provided, which serves for mounting the roof lamp 100 on the front panel 210 of the hood 200. The second connector 140 may connect the lamp body 120 to the mounting frame 110 along the second direction.An included angle is formed between the first direction and the second direction. That is, the acting force of the first terminal 130 between the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 is predominantly in the first direction, while the acting force of the second terminal 140 between the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 is predominantly in the second direction.Since the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 are connected together via the first connection piece 130 and the second connection piece 140, there are more connection points between the two, i.e. with a higher connection strength, in order to achieve robust mounting of the lamp bodies 120. Thanks to the included angle between the first direction for connecting to the first connector 130 and the second direction for connecting to the second connector 140, the action force between the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 is more evenly distributed, so that these two are plausible to each other.Moreover, the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 may be assembled to the front cowl 210 as a complex via the second connector 140, the second connector 140 not only connecting to the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110, but also completely connecting the roof lamp 100 to the front cowl 210. Provided that the stability and safety of the roof lamp 100 are maintained, this also makes it possible for the roof lamp 100 to be equipped with fewer connecting pieces. This reduces the assembly cost of the roof lamp 100 thanks to the compact construction and the decrease in assembly operations.The first connector 130 may be, for example, a bolt and a bolt, and then inserted through the mounting frame 110 and the lamp body 120 to fix the lamp body 120 to the mounting frame 110. The second connector 140 may also be a bolt and a bolt, and then inserted through the front cowl 210, the mounting frame 110, and the lamp body 120 to fix the roof lamp 100 to the front cowl 210 in conjunction with the mounting frame 110 and the lamp body 120.By fastening the lamp body 120 to the mounting frame 110 by means of bolts or screws, the roof lamp 100 remains fixedly connected to the front trim 210. The attachment members themselves have a certain length sufficient for connection between the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 to allow the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 to be assembled to the front cowl 210 as a composite compelx.The attachment parts themselves also have structural strength and strong joint performance to plausiblely install the lamp body 120 in the mounting frame 110 and to mount the roof lamp 100 completely to the front trim 210 in a robust manner. Thus, the joint strength between the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 as well as between the roof lamp 100 and the front cowl 210 can be increased to secure the stability and plausibility of the roof lamp 100.Of the first terminal fitting 130 configured as a bolt or bolt and the second terminal fitting 140, the first terminal fitting 130 may extend in the first direction to connect the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 together along the first direction. The second connector 140 may extend in the second direction to connect the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 together along the second direction.In this case, the first direction remains perpendicular relative to the second direction. The directions of extension of the first connection piece 130 and the second connection piece 140 can remain perpendicular to each other, for example. As a result, the action force taken over by the sector of the luminaire body 120 situated on the first connection piece 130 remains perpendicular to the action force taken over by the sector situated on the second connection piece 140. The acting forces in the two mutually perpendicular directions may prevent possible wobbling or displacement of the lamp body 120, so that the lamp body 120 is installed robust to ensure the stability and plausibility of the roof lamp 100.For example, in a light beam direction of the roof lamp 100 directed toward the front side of the vehicle, the lighting surface of the lamp body 120 also points toward the front side of the vehicle, wherein the mounting frame 110 encloses the rear side of the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 points toward the rear side of the vehicle. Here, the first direction represents a length direction of the vehicle (Y direction in FIG. 4 ), into which the first connector 130 may extend, for example. Here, the second direction represents a height direction of the vehicle (Z direction in FIG. 4 ), in which the second terminal fitting 140 may extend, for example.For example, referring to FIG. 4, the first connector 130 may be inserted from the side of the mounting frame 110 facing away from the lamp body 120, i.e., sequentially through the mounting frame 110 and the lamp body 120 to expediently connect the lamp body 120 to the mounting frame 110. Thus, the first connector 130 can be inserted into the luminaire body 120 from the outside of the mounting frame 110, which facilitates the connection of the mounting frame 110 to the luminaire body 120. Therefore, the first connector 130 can also be disassembled from the outside of the mounting frame 110, enabling easy removal of the lamp body 120 from the mounting frame 110.The second connector 140 can be inserted through from the side of the front covering 210 facing away from the roof lamp 100, i.e. successively through the front covering 210, the mounting frame 110 and the lamp body 120 until the connection to the lamp body 120 in order to mount the complete roof lamp 100 to the front covering 210. At this time, the second connector 140 may be inserted through from the inside of the head cover 210 and then inserted through the lamp body 120 from the outside of the roof lamp 100 to facilitate the connection of the head cover 210 to the roof lamp 100. The second connector 140 can be disassembled from the outside of the front cowl 210 to remove the entire roof lamp 100 from the front cowl 210.A pair of sealing elements (not shown) can be provided both between the first connection piece 130 and the mounting frame 110 and between the second connection piece 140 and the mounting frame 110 in order to realize the sealing connections both between the first connection piece 130 and the roof lamp 100 and between the second connection piece 140 and the roof lamp 100. This makes it possible to ensure the sealing performance of the entire roof lamp 100 in order to prevent any ingress of dust, water vapor into the lamp body 120 and thus to increase the plausibility of the roof lamp 100 and to extend the service life of the roof lamp 100.In an embodiment according to the invention, the second connecting piece 140 is inserted one after the other through the inner cladding 212 and the outer cladding 211 until the connection to the roof lamp 100. That is, the second connector 140 is inserted through the inner liner 212, the outer liner 211, the mounting frame 110, and the lamp body 120 one after another from the side of the inner liner 212 facing away from the outer liner 211.In addition to the expedient fastening of the roof lamp 100 to the front cladding 210, the second connecting piece 140 also acts for connecting the inner cladding 212 to the outer cladding 211. On this basis, other additional connectors may be provided between the inner liner 212 and the outer liner 211 to allow multi-piece connections between the inner liner 212 and the outer liner 211 to robustly connect the inner liner 212 to the outer liner 211.Referring to FIG. 4, the roof lamp 100 further includes a wire bundle 150 having one end connected to the lamp body 120 and the other end connected to the vehicle controller to control the operation of the roof lamp 100 by the controller of the vehicle. At this time, the wire bundle 150 may be inserted into the lamp body 120 through the mounting frame 110 to provide an electrical connection with the lamp body 120 for supplying power to the lamp body 120.In the present embodiment, the wire bundle 150 may be disposed between the inner panel 212 and the outer panel 211. That is, the vehicle control apparatus derived cable bundle 150 may be configured to be connected to the lamp body 120 between the inner panel 212 and the outer panel 211. Thus, the cable bundle 150 is covered by the outer covering 211 and exhibits long-term exposure to sun and rain. As a result, the cable bundle 150 is not susceptible to aging and is then distinguished by high plausibility and long service life. Therefore, plausibility of the roof lamp 100 can be increased and the life of the roof lamp 100 can be extended.Referring to FIG. 4, when the first connector 130 is inserted into the lamp body 120 from the outside of the mounting frame 110, the end of the first connector 130 remains open outside the mounting frame 110. For this purpose, a back plate 160 may be provided outside the mounting frame 110, which back plate adjoins a side of the mounting frame 110 facing away from the luminaire body 120, while the first connection piece 130 is located in a covering region of the back plate 160, or the first connection piece 130 is covered by the back plate 160.As a result, the first connector 130 does not remain open, which leads to a simple and pleasing appearance of the roof lamp 100. Furthermore, the back plate 160 can protect the first connection piece 130 against possible erosion by foreign water vapor in order to ensure the plausibility and life span of the first connection piece 130.The back plate 160 may be adhered to the mounting frame 110 with adhesive. This makes it possible to dispense with additional connecting pieces for connecting the rear plate 160 to the mounting frame 110, which leads to a simple and pleasing appearance of the roof lamp 100.FIG. 5 shows a view of the roof lamp according to the invention on a front cladding. FIG. 6 shows a view of the outer cladding according to the invention. FIG. 7 shows a view of the mounting frame according to the invention. Fig. 8 is a view of the back plate of the present invention.In the present embodiment with reference to FIG. 5, the roof lamp 100 includes at least one lamp body 120. If the roof lamp 100 includes only one lamp body 120, the lamp body 120 extends in the length direction of the mounting frame 110, and the shape and size of the lamp body 120 are matched with the mounting frame 110. If the roof lamp 100 includes more than two lamp bodies 120, the individual lamp bodies 120 sequentially extend in the length direction of the mounting frame 110.For example, as the mounting frame 110 extends in the width direction of the vehicle (X direction in FIG. 5 ), the mounting frame 110 may extend in the length direction of the cowl rear wall 2112 of the outer cowl 211 at the front cowl 210. If the roof lamp 100 includes more than two lamp bodies 120 (see FIG. 5 ), the individual lamp bodies 120 sequentially extend in the width direction of the vehicle. If the roof lamp 100 comprises only one lamp body 120, the lamp body 120 extends in the width direction of the vehicle, and the lamp body 120 is constructed in a long strip manner.The mounting frame 110 may extend in the width direction of the vehicle, for example, to the vicinity of both ends of the width direction of the vehicle. Since the mounting frame 110 has a greater length and a greater space, more than two smaller lamp bodies 120 or one larger lamp body 120 may be inserted into the mounting frame 110. Thus, the lighting area and lighting performance of the roof lamp 100 can be increased. For example, the number of light sources of the roof lamp 100 may be increased. Thereby, the illumination area of the roof lamp 100 can be increased to enhance the brightness of the roof lamp 100.In the present embodiment, the mounting frame 110 is formed as a monoblock or a complex. By mounting the lamp body 120 in the integrated mounting frame 110, the strength of the complete roof lamp 100 can be reinforced, which facilitates the plausibility and service life of the roof lamp 100.In an embodiment according to the invention with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, the outer panel 211 of the front panel 210 is provided with a mounting zone 201 protruding from the outer wall surface of the outer panel 211. In other words, the mounting zone 201 can protrude from the side wall surface of the outer panel 211 facing away from the inner panel 212, namely from the outer surface of the top 200.The mounting zone 201 on the outer panel 211 serves to mount some accessories of the vehicle. The mounting zone 201 may be formed with a fitting groove 2011 which extends in the length direction of the vehicle (Y direction in FIG. 6 ) and in which the accessories are mounted.Probes such as radar device or camera can be installed in the mounting zone 201, i.e., in the fitting groove 2011. In the mounting zone 201, a light source serving as a component of the roof lamp 100 for illumination can be mounted. In the fitting groove 2011, for example, one lamp body 120 or more than two can be inserted. Thus, the lamp body 120 installed in the fitting groove 2011 and the lamp body 120 installed in the mounting frame 110 can light up simultaneously to illuminate the periphery of the vehicle. As a result, the lighting performance of the roof lamp 100 is increased.The fitting groove 2011 may not be continuously constructed with an opening at, for example, the front end of the mounting zone 201 (facing the front of the vehicle). Here, the fitting groove 2011 is not continuously connected to the rear end of the mounting zone 201 (directed to the rear side of the vehicle). In such a configuration, the mounting zone 201 can very well surround the accessories installed in the fitting groove 2011, in order to protect the accessories and to increase the plausibility of the accessories.The fitting groove 2011 may also be continuously constructed so that the fitting groove 2011 continuously connects to the front end and the rear end of the mounting zone 201. Thereby, the accessories can be conveniently installed in the fitting groove. With a probe as an accessory, many segments remain open outside the mounting zone 201, which is favorable for versatile scanning in the environment of the vehicle. The accessories may, for example, sense at least the environment at the front and rear of the vehicle.Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, the mounting frame 110 is constructed as a monoblock. The mounting frame 110 may be formed with a first escape location 111 if the outer cladding 211 is provided with a raised mounting zone 201. The first escape point 111 of the mounting frame 110 matches the arrangement of the mounting zone 201. The mounting zone 201 may be disposed in the first escape location 111 so that the opening of the fitting groove of the mounting zone 201 is located, for example, in the first escape location 111 so that the accessories installed in the fitting groove 2011 remain open within the first escape location 111. This allows the accessories to remain functional.In addition to connecting the roof lamp 100 to the other segments of the exterior trim 211, the roof lamp 100 may further connect to the mounting zone 201 on the exterior trim 211. Thus, there are more connection points between the roof lamp 100 and the outer cladding 211, which connection points are designed in different regions. This enhances the connection strength between the roof lamp 100 and the exterior trim 211, increases the plausibility of the assembly of the roof lamp 100, and secures the fixing robustness of the roof lamp 100 to the hood.The connection of the roof lamp 100 to the mounting zone 201 on the outer cladding 211 can be either a connection of the lamp body 120 to the mounting zone 201, or a connection of the mounting frame 110 to the mounting zone 201, or a connection of the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 to the mounting zone 201, i.e. without limitation thereto.If a back plate 160 is attached to the outer side of the mounting frame 110, this back plate 160 can be filed with a second escape point 161, which can cooperate with the first escape point 111 of the mounting frame 110, with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8. The mounting zone 201 in the front cladding 210 can be located at the second deflection point of the back plate 160, wherein the back plate 160 encloses the environment of the mounting zone 201.For example, the mounting zone 201 of the outer panel 211 may be located at a center position along the length direction (X direction in FIG. 6 ) of the outer panel 211. Then, if the outer panel 211 extends in the width direction of the vehicle, the mounting zone 201 is located at the center in the width direction of the vehicle. With a probe installed in the mounting zone 201, the probe is uniformly spaced from both sides in the width direction of the vehicle so that the probe completely and accurately scans the periphery of the vehicle.The first escape place 111 in the mounting frame 110 may also be formed at a center of the mounting frame 110, because the mounting zone 201 of the outer panel 211 is disposed at a center in the length direction of the outer panel 211. As a result, the mounting frame 110 has high structural strengths on the two sides, so that the complete mounting frame 110 can take over a more balanced force effect and thus has an increased plausibility.In addition, the mounting frame 110 has larger spaces on both sides of the first escape location 111, which spaces are each sufficient for mounting the lamp body 120. As a result, the roof lamp 100 has a larger lighting area, a larger lighting area, and high lighting performance to meet the operability requirement of the roof lamp 100.Two lamp bodies 120 can be inserted in the mounting frame 110, which lamp bodies lie on the mounting frame 110 on a respective side of the first escape point 111 (see FIG. 5 ). In the present embodiment, the two lamp bodies 120 are respectively referred to as a left side lamp body 121 and a right side lamp body 122, and the left side lamp body 121 and the right side lamp body 122 are located on each side of the first escape place 111. The left side lamp body 121 can be installed in the left space of the mounting frame 110, while the right side lamp body 122 can be installed in the right space of the mounting frame 110.If the first escape place 111 is formed in the middle of the length direction of the mounting frame 110, the left space and the right space of the mounting frame 110 remain uniform and symmetrical. Accordingly, the left-side lamp body 121 installed in the mounting frame 110 and the right-side lamp body 122 remain uniform and can be symmetrically inserted.Further, as mentioned above, the roof lamp 100 includes three lamp bodies 120 if the accessory mounted to the exterior panel 211 in the mounting zone 201 is a lamp body 120. Below this, the left side lamp body 121 is inserted into the left space of the mounting frame 110, the right side lamp body 122 is inserted into the right space of the mounting frame 110, and the other lamp body 120 is inserted into the mounting zone 201 from the exterior trim 211.In a specific embodiment with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, the lamp body 120 may connect to the mounting zone 201 of the exterior trim 211. In this case, the left-side lamp body 121 can connect to the left side of the mounting zone 201, and the right-side lamp body 122 can connect to the right side of the mounting zone 201. Between the left side lamp body 121 (or the right side lamp body 122) and the mounting frame 110, a first connector 130 and a second connector 140 for connection are provided, and the left side lamp body 121 (or the right side lamp body 122) is also connected to the mounting zone 201. Thereby, more connection points are provided to the left side lamp body 121 (or the right side lamp body 122) to increase the connection strength of the left side lamp body 121 (or the right side lamp body 122) and to achieve a robust connection of the left side lamp body 121 (or the right side lamp body 122).Referring to FIGS. 4 and 7, the mounting frame 110 is further provided with a first mounting hole 112 located at the rear side wall of the mounting frame 110 (side wall of the mounting frame 110) facing away from the lamp body 120. The first connector 130 is inserted through the first mounting hole 112 for connection to the lamp body 120. The mounting frame 110 may also be formed with a second mounting hole 113 located at the bottom side wall of the mounting frame 110 (the side wall of the mounting frame 110 facing the front cowl 210. The second connector 140 is inserted through the second mounting hole 113 to be connected to the lamp body 120.Referring to FIGS. 7 and 9, one of the lamp body 120 and the mounting frame 110 is provided with a centering pin 101, and the other is then provided with a locking hole 102. The centering pin 101 mates with the locking hole 102 so that the centering pin 101 can be inserted into the locking hole 102 to position the lamp body 120 in the mounting frame 110.The lamp body 120 may also be provided with a centering pin 101. Accordingly, the mounting frame 110 may be formed with a locking hole 102. The centering pin 101 on the lamp body 120 is insertable into the locking hole 102 in the mounting frame 110 to position the lamp body 120.Or, the lamp body 120 may be formed with a locking hole 102.
