Exemplary embodiments that embody features and advantages of the present invention will be described in detail in the following description. It is to be understood that the invention is capable of other and different embodiments, and its several details are capable of modification in various other respects, all without departing from the scope of the invention, and that the description and drawings are to be taken as illustrative in nature, and not as restrictive.

Referring to fig. 1 to fig. 3, in a light guide device 100 provided in an exemplary embodiment, the light guide device 100 includes a light source 101, a light guide material 102, and a display panel 103.

Here, the light sources 101 are arranged in a fixed shape, and thus the pattern formed by the light emitted from the light sources 101 is also fixed. For example, if the light sources 101 are arranged in a circular lattice, the light emitted from the light sources 101 will form a circular pattern.

It should be noted that the arrangement of the light sources 101 in a fixed shape means that the arrangement shape of the light sources 101 is fixed in each light guide device 100, but the arrangement form of the light sources 101 may be different in different light guide devices 100. The arrangement shape of the light sources 101 in each light guide 100 may be arbitrary and is not limited to the above circular lattice shape. Also, the number of light sources 101 in each light guide device 100 may be arbitrary.

The light guide material 102 serves as a medium for light transmission, and is used for transmitting light emitted by the light source 101 to the display panel 103 for display. One end of the light guide material 102 is a light source end, and the light source end is in butt joint with the light source 101, so that light emitted by the light source 101 is emitted into the light source end and is guided to the tail end of the light guide material 102 along with the guidance of the light guide material 102.

The display panel 103 is provided with a plurality of first light holes 1031, and the first light holes 1031 are used for inserting the ends of the light guide material 102, so that the light transmitted to the ends of the light guide material 102 is emitted in the inserted first light holes 1031, and thus the light appears in the inserted first light holes 1031. According to the arrangement shape of the inserted first light passing holes 1031, the light guided by the light guide material 102 will display a corresponding pattern on the display panel 103, thereby outputting the light sources 101 fixedly arranged as other shapes of light emitting patterns again.

For example, as shown in fig. 4, if the light source 101 is composed of 12 LED lamps and arranged in a circular lattice, each LED lamp is connected to the light source end of the light guide material 102, and the light source 101 can be rearranged into a linear, square, rectangular, etc. shape by selectively inserting the end of the light guide material 102 into the first through hole formed on the display panel 103, so that a linear pattern, a square pattern, or a rectangular pattern is correspondingly displayed on the display panel 103.
