Detailed Description

The present application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which exemplary embodiments of the present application are illustrated, and in which the implementations of the present application are not limited to these examples.

According to the utility model provides a reading lamp mounting structure, it includes reading lamp, is fixed in the ceiling support of vehicle roof and bezel. The reading lamp and the decorative ring are arranged on two sides of the ceiling, the reading lamp can be installed on the ceiling bracket, and the decorative ring is fixed to the ceiling from the other side. It should be understood that the bezel is oriented toward the interior passenger space in the vehicle described herein. The ceiling mount is provided with a second mounting member which mates with the first mounting member securing the reading light to the mount to secure the reading light to the ceiling mount. The reading lamp mounting structure further includes a tether. The tether is configured to attach to the bezel at one end and to attach to the first or second mounting element at the other end, whereby upon mating of the first and second mounting elements, the bezel is connected via the tether to the mated first and second mounting elements and thereby to the mounted ceiling mount and reading light. The other end is connected with the first installation part or the second installation part, that is, the tether can be connected with the first installation part or the second installation part, and the tether is not separated from the installation part after the first installation part is matched with the second installation part.

Fig. 1 is a schematic illustration of a reading lamp mounting structure according to an example of the present application, in which three of a reading lamp, a vehicle ceiling, and a bezel are arranged in this order. As shown in the figure, the ceiling 3 is provided with a ceiling mount 4 on its side facing the reading lamp 2, the reading lamp 2 being able to be mounted to this ceiling mount 4. The bezel 5 is located on the other side of the ceiling 3, i.e. it is located on both sides of the ceiling 3 apart from the reading lamp 2. When mounted, the reading lamp 2 is mounted to the ceiling bracket 4 in the direction of the ceiling 3, and the bezel 5 is also fixed to the ceiling 3 in the direction of the ceiling 3.

In fig. 1, the ceiling mount 4 is fixed to the ceiling 3 in a spot-gluing manner, for example by means of hot-melt glue, in openings of the mount 4. A mounting member is provided on the ceiling mount 4 for cooperating with the reading lamp 2, more specifically, the reading lamp 2 is positionable and relatively securable to the ceiling mount 4, and in this case, the ceiling mount 4 is further provided with a second mounting member 6 which is connectable to the reading lamp 2 for securing the same thereto. The first mounting member 20, which mates with the second mounting member 6, secures the reading light 2 to the ceiling mount 4 after it has been passed through the bayonet 201 provided on the reading light 2 and then the second mounting member 6 has been attached. It should be noted that in the example of fig. 1, only the first mounting part 20 is illustrated as being matched with the second mounting part 6, and it is not illustrated as passing through the bayonet 201, and in the actual installation, the first mounting part 20 is fixed in the second mounting part 6 by passing through the bayonet 201.

By way of example and not limitation, the second mount 6 is threadedly connected to the first mount 20. More specifically, the second mounting element 6 provided on the ceiling mount 4 is a threaded stud (hereinafter, the second mounting element is also referred to as a threaded stud 6), and a threaded groove (not shown) is provided in the threaded stud 6. Correspondingly, the first mounting part 20 is a bolt or screw 20, in this example a bolt, which is mated with the threaded stud 6 (hereinafter, the first mounting part 20 is also referred to as bolt 20). At a position on the reading lamp 2 body corresponding to the threaded post 6, a bayonet 201 is provided for the threaded portion of the bolt 20 to pass through, the bayonet 201 allowing the threaded portion of the bolt 20 to pass through but blocking the end 202 of the bolt 20 (see fig. 2).

When the reading lamp 2 is fitted into the ceiling bracket 4, the screw portion of the bolt 20 is fed into the screw post 6 via the bayonet 201, and the screw portion of the bolt 20 is screwed into the screw post by the screw thread of the screw post 6 matching the screw portion of the bolt 20. Here, although a bolt is taken as an example of the screw connection, a screw is also possible, but in the case of a screw, the screw post 6 is engageable with the screw, and likewise, the bayonet 201 is adaptable with the screw.

According to the example, a perforation 50 is provided on a catch of the eyelet 5, which can be passed through a tether 52 configured as a nylon loop (hereinafter referred to as nylon loop 52 or tether 52), from which perforation 50 it can be freely suspended. Fig. 2 is a schematic view of the ceiling mount 4 and the bezel 5 joined together according to an example of the present application, showing the perforations 50, the nylon ring 52, the threaded post 6 and the bolt 20 (see fig. 1) fitted together, without showing the reading light. Fig. 2 does not illustrate the reading light for clarity of illustrating the arrangement of the nylon loop 52, but this is not to say that the example of fig. 2 excludes the reading light.

According to the application, after the grommet is secured to the ceiling mount 4, the other end of the nylon ring 52 is fitted over the threaded post 6. After the reading lamp 2 is placed in the ceiling mount 4, the bolt 20 is inserted through the bayonet 201 (not shown in fig. 2, see fig. 1), the threaded portion of the bolt 20 is threadedly coupled with the threaded post 6, and the end 202 thereof is blocked by the bayonet 201, so that the reading lamp 2 is fixed to the ceiling mount 4. The nylon ring 52 fixed on the threaded post 6 of the ceiling bracket 4 can not be separated from the fixed reading lamp 2 and ceiling bracket 4 because the bolt 20 is connected with the threaded post 6 and is blocked between the reading lamp 2 and the ceiling bracket 4 by the bayonet 201. Thus, even if the bezel 5 is separated from the ceiling by the collision, it cannot be removed because it is restrained by the other end of the nylon ring 52 in the reading lamp 2 and the ceiling bracket 4 fixed together.

For the purposes of the present application as described above, it should be understood that the snap fit of the grommet 5 with the perforations 50 is where the nylon cord can be extended through and attached to the threaded post 40 after the grommet 5 is secured to the ceiling mount 4. For example, the position where the grommet 5 is provided with the snap of the through hole 50 is a place which is not shielded by the ceiling bracket 4 after being fixed to the ceiling bracket 4. In practical applications, however, the through holes 50 are not limited to this, and may be disposed at other positions of the bezel 5.

Regarding the circumference of the nylon ring, if the fastener provided with the through hole 50 is very close to the threaded post 6, the nylon rope may be shorter, or vice versa, and the like, depending on the actual use. In either case, it is understood that the circumference of the nylon ring is preferably left with some margin. In the example of the application, the tether is configured as a nylon loop, but in practice it need not be configured as a loop, but may be a nylon cord, with one end attached to the eyelet 5 and one end attached to a threaded post or bolt, for example.

The present application further provides a reading lamp assembly including a reading lamp mounting structure as described in the examples above.

Although the present application has been described herein in connection with examples, it is to be understood that the features and structures of the various examples may be interchanged or combined in practice. Furthermore, the examples described herein are intended to be illustrative only of specific ways to make the application, and the scope of protection should be determined by the claims appended hereto.
