[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0025] The present application will now be described in more detail with reference to Figures 1 to 5 and specific embodiments.

[0026] This application discloses an indicator device for a rideable electric suitcase. Referring to Figures 1 to 4, it includes a side panel 1, a support 2, an LED light strip 3, and a lampshade 4. The lampshade 4 has a protrusion 40 on its outer side. The side panel 1 has an opening 10. The outer side of the lampshade 4 abuts against the inner wall of the side panel 1, and the protrusion 40 passes through the opening 10. The protrusion 40 can be flush with or protrude from the outer surface of the side panel 1. The support 2 and the lampshade 4 are joined together to form a sealed cavity. The LED light strip 3 is fixed within the cavity formed by the support 2 and the lampshade 4, and the light from the LED light strip 3 is transmitted to the external environment through the protrusion 40, achieving a warning effect. The support 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the side panel 1, thereby also fixing the lampshade 4 to the side panel 1. It is known that a suitcase generally has two side panels 1, one on the left and one on the right, and each side panel 1 is equipped with the indicator device of this application.

[0027] In the above structure, the side panel 1 of the box body serves as the left and right side panels of the electric luggage box, and an opening 10 is provided on it. The protrusion 40 on the outer side of the lampshade 4 passes through the opening 10 and the two are tightly engaged, making the connection between the two both aesthetically pleasing and dustproof and waterproof. The cooperation between the protrusion 40 and the opening 10 enables the lampshade to be quickly positioned. The support 2 is assembled with the lampshade 4, and the support 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the side panel 1 of the box body. The LED light strip 3 is installed in the cavity formed by the support 2 and the lampshade 4. When the LED light strip 3 is lit, it can emit a light signal through the protrusion 40. This light signal can serve as a reminder to the surroundings and avoid safety hazards. In practical applications, the light signal emitted by the LED light strip 3 can be in various modes such as constant light and flashing, which can be set according to the user's needs. Based on the above structure and principle, it can be seen that this application not only has a reminder function for pedestrians, but also has a compact overall structure, is easy to assemble during the manufacturing process, and has a low application cost.

[0028] In this embodiment, the light signal emitted outward through the protrusion 40 is preferably in the form of a strip, specifically an inverted U-shaped strip, as shown in Figures 2 and 4. The support 2, LED strip 3, and lampshade 4 are all inverted "U" shapes. The inverted U-shaped strip matches the rectangular outline of the housing, maximizing the lighting coverage. At the same time, the inverted U-shaped strip is easier to assemble while maintaining aesthetics.

[0029] To better accommodate the LED light strip 3, in this embodiment, a groove 20 is provided on the support 2, and the LED light strip 3 is fixed within the groove 20. Fixing the LED light strip within the groove prevents it from falling off or becoming loose due to riding bumps. This application does not limit the fixing method of the LED light strip 3; welding, screw connection, or other methods are all acceptable.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment, the support 2 has two through holes 21, and the two terminals 30 of the LED light strip 3 are respectively aligned with the two through holes 21. The wires connected to the two terminals 30 can pass through the two through holes 21 and then be connected to the controller of the electric luggage compartment.

[0031] Regarding the preferred fixing method of the support 2, please refer to Figures 1 and 3. The support 2 has multiple lugs 22 formed on its edge, and these lugs 22 are fixedly connected to the side plate 1 of the housing by fasteners, preferably screws. In this embodiment, screws are preferably used to fix the support 2, as this fixing method is detachable and facilitates production assembly.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 5, the support 2 has lugs 22 on both its upper and lower edges. The lugs 22 extend towards the lampshade 4 to form limiting surfaces 221, and the lampshade 4 is clamped between the two limiting surfaces 221. This application, through the symmetrically arranged lugs 22 and the extending limiting surfaces 221, forms a bidirectional constraint on the lampshade 4, effectively preventing displacement during installation and ensuring accurate and stable positioning relative to the support 2. Simultaneously, the lampshade 4 is clamped between the two limiting surfaces 221, forming a simple plug-in structure. This allows for quick installation and removal of the lampshade 4 without additional fasteners, significantly improving assembly efficiency and ease of maintenance.

[0033] To improve the light strip display effect, in this embodiment, the lampshade 4 is provided with a light mixing cavity 41 of a preset width, and the light-emitting side of the LED light strip 3 faces the light mixing cavity 41. The light emitted by the LED light strip 3 is fully mixed within the light mixing cavity 41 and then presented as an inverted U-shaped light strip.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the protrusion 40 is a light-transmitting portion of a preset color. For example, light passing through the protrusion 40 can appear as red or blue light, and the exposed design of the protrusion ensures that the light remains clearly visible even in strong light environments.

[0035] This application also provides an electric luggage box, including any of the above-mentioned indicators for a rideable electric luggage box. The indicator can improve the safety of riding at night. The electric luggage box provided by this application adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned indicators, and therefore has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned indicators, which will not be repeated here.

[0036] The present invention has been further described above with reference to specific embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific description herein should not be construed as limiting the nature and scope of the present invention. Various modifications made to the above embodiments by those skilled in the art after reading this specification are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
