[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0017] 1. Through the setting of flexible screen, the decorative cover no longer needs to be plated and coated by electroplating technology, which can better meet the needs of environmental friendliness to a certain extent. Flexible screens have low power consumption, mature technology, and better display effects under sunlight. In addition to being able to display pure colors, it can also be customized to display images from on-board cameras to assist the driver's field of vision. The display screen can also be electrically connected to the car computer to obtain richer functions.

[0018] 2. The corresponding decorative cover and flexible screen are made to correspond by bringing the first splicing mechanism and the second splicing mechanism closer and fitting together, and then the decorative cover and the flexible screen are fitted together by the air pressure of the air source. At the same time, the air pressure makes the decorative cover leave the first splicing mechanism, so that the bottom of the decorative cover is vacated and a gap flows out between the first splicing mechanism. Then, the direction of the air pressure is changed by adjusting the first air duct and the second air duct, and the fitted decorative cover and flexible screen are squeezed toward one side of the first splicing mechanism. At this time, it is obvious that the block part at the bottom of the flexible screen protrudes from the decorative cover. When the air pressure presses the intermediate body toward the first splicing mechanism, the protruding block part of the flexible screen is bent by the chamfering action, and finally wrapped with the bottom of the decorative cover.

[0037] Embodiment:

[0038] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the present application proposes a rearview mirror with a flexible screen decorative cover, including a flexible screen 3, a decorative cover 2 and a secondary mirror shell, the decorative cover 2 and the secondary mirror shell are spliced ​​to form a rearview mirror body, the flexible screen 3 is arranged on the outer wall surface of the decorative cover 2, and the bottom of the flexible screen 3 is bent and fixed to the bottom surface of the decorative cover 2. The flexible screen 3 is a flexible OLED screen, which can be spliced ​​with the decorative cover 2. Through the flexible screen 3, the appearance of the decorative cover 2 can maintain the same color as the whole vehicle, and the appearance can also be customized to form a color preferred by the customer.

[0039] By setting the flexible screen 3, the decorative cover 2 produced by the present application no longer needs to be plated and coated by the existing electroplating technology, which can better meet the environmental friendliness requirements to a certain extent. The flexible screen 3 has low power consumption, mature technology, and better display effect in the sun. In addition to being able to display pure colors, it can also be customized, for example, to display images from a vehicle camera to assist the driver's field of vision. The display screen can also be electrically connected to the vehicle computer to obtain richer functions. In addition, the flexible screen 3 can also warn the driver or nearby vehicles through bright color displays in some economical situations. At present, vehicles are developing in the direction of intelligence, so the application of the flexible screen 3 on the rearview mirror is a design that conforms to the development direction of the automotive industry.

[0040] The flexible screen 3 in this embodiment wraps the outer wall of the decorative cover 2 on the one hand, and wraps and bonds the bottom edge of the decorative cover 2 on the other hand, and the secondary mirror shell at the bottom is fixed to the fixed structure (such as a fixed plate) set inside the decorative cover 2 by bonding or screws. On the one hand, the flexible screen 3 wraps the decorative cover 2, so that it can replace the decorative cover 2 itself to emit light to change the appearance; on the other hand, the bottom of the flexible screen 3 wraps the bottom edge of the decorative cover 2 to ensure that the overall color of the decorative cover 2 is uniform after wrapping, and prevent the problem of inconsistent color at the bottom edge.

[0041] The outer wall surface of the decorative cover 2 is a curved surface, and its bottom edge is annularly closed, so the bottom surface of the corresponding flexible screen 3 needs to be specially set. A preferred embodiment scheme is proposed below: a crack is opened at the bottom of the flexible screen 3 corresponding to the edge of the bottom surface of the decorative cover 2, so that the bottom of the flexible screen 3 is divided into a plurality of foldable blocks. At this time, the plurality of block-shaped flexible screens 3 can be bent to fit with the bottom edge of the decorative cover 2. Within the allowable range, the more blocks the bottom of the flexible screen 3 is divided into, the better the assembly and fitting effect with the decorative cover 2. The reason is that the bottom of the decorative cover 2 has a certain curvature. When the block is longer and larger, it is easy to produce a gap after it fits with the bottom edge of the decorative cover 2, resulting in a decrease in the fitting effect.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 13 As shown, on the other hand, the present application also proposes a production device for producing the above-mentioned rearview mirror, which is mainly used for the bonding and wrapping of the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3.

[0043] The production equipment mainly includes a first splicing mechanism 5 and a second splicing mechanism 4. The first splicing mechanism 5 limits and pre-fixes the decorative cover 2, and the second splicing mechanism 4 limits and pre-fixes the flexible screen 3. In this embodiment, the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are preferably arranged one above and one below to be close to each other, so that the flexible screen 3 and the decorative cover 2 can be fitted together. Since the mass of the decorative cover 2 is generally greater than that of the flexible screen 3, and the decorative cover 2 itself has better strength after molding, it is relatively more appropriate to place the first splicing mechanism 5 for installing the decorative cover 2 at the bottom.

[0044] The first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are respectively provided with a first air channel and a second air channel, the first air channel includes a first pressure port 13 and a first connecting port 17 acting on the decorative cover 2, the first air channel is provided with an air source 16 for communication, and the second air channel includes a second pressure port 8 and a second connecting port 21 acting on the flexible screen 3. When fitting, the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are close to and fitted so that the first connecting port 17 and the second connecting port 21 are closed to each other, and the air source 16 supplies air to the first pressure port 13 to make the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 abut and fit together; then the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are slightly opened, at this time the first connecting port 17 and the second connecting port 21 are opened, and at the same time the second pressure port 8 is opened and the first pressure port 13 is closed; at this time, the air supplied by the air source 16 is discharged from the second pressure port 8, so that the flexible screen 3 moves toward one side of the decorative cover 2 and finally makes the decorative cover 2 and the first splicing mechanism 5 abut against each other; the first splicing mechanism 5 is provided with a chamfer for bending the flexible screen 3. The general principle of this embodiment is that the corresponding decorative cover 2 and flexible screen 3 are made to correspond by bringing the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 closer and fitting together, and then the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 are fitted together by the air pressure of the air source 16. At the same time, the air pressure makes the decorative cover 2 leave the first splicing mechanism 5, so that the bottom of the decorative cover 2 is vacated and a gap flows out between the first splicing mechanism 5, and then the air pressure direction is changed by adjusting the first air duct and the second air duct to squeeze the fitted decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 toward one side of the first splicing mechanism 5. In this state, the fitted state of the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 is called an intermediate. At this time, it is obvious that the block part at the bottom of the flexible screen 3 protrudes from the decorative cover 2. When the air pressure presses the intermediate toward the first splicing mechanism 5, the protruding block part of the flexible screen 3 is bent by the chamfering action, and finally wrapped with the bottom of the decorative cover 2.

[0045] For the specific adjustment of the first air channel and the second air channel, two air sources 16 can be set separately, and the two air sources 16 act on the flexible screen 3 and the decorative cover 2 respectively, so that the above operation can be easily completed through electric control. Specifically, the air source on one side of the decorative cover 2 is started first, and the air pressure makes the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 fit together initially, and then the air source on one side of the decorative cover 2 is closed, and the air source on one side of the flexible screen 3 is opened, and the air pressure makes the intermediate body composed of the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 move toward the side of the decorative cover 2, until the protruding part at the bottom of the flexible screen 3 acts on the chamfer to start guiding the bending, and finally fits with the bottom edge of the decorative cover 2. In this embodiment, the bonding of the flexible screen 3 and the decorative cover 2 can be carried out by hot melt adhesive and other technologies. A corresponding heating device can be arranged in the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4. The glue is melted and bonded by heating during bonding. The specific bonding method is not limited in this embodiment and is not the focus of this embodiment. The focus of this embodiment is how to conveniently complete the bonding of the flexible screen 3 and the decorative cover 2, and at the same time complete the problem of bonding the flexible screen 3 to the bottom edge of the decorative cover 2.

[0046] like Figures 5 to 10 As shown, the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 begin to form a closed area at a set distance before they are fully connected, that is, a closed space 20 is formed between the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 some time before the completion of the bonding. This closed space 20 is for allowing the air pressure to act on the decorative cover 2 or the flexible screen 3. At the same time, after the two are combined into an intermediate body, the intermediate body can have a certain range of movement, so that the bottom of the decorative cover 2 can be in a suspended state, so that the protruding block part of the flexible screen 3 can be wrapped with the bottom of the decorative cover 2.

[0047] It is worth mentioning that Figures 6 to 9 The shapes of the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 are simplified into rectangular shapes for the purpose of convenience of illustration. In fact, the inner cavity structures of the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are adapted to the specific decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3. However, it is obvious that, under the premise that the rectangular configuration shown in the figure is feasible, the inner cavity structures of the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are simply modified to conform to the specific configurations of the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3, and actual production can be carried out.

[0048] The inner cavity shape of the second splicing mechanism 4 is proportionally enlarged to the outer wall shape of the decorative cover 2. When fitting, the inner cavity of the second splicing mechanism 4 with the flexible screen 3 pre-installed is reduced to fit the outer wall shape of the decorative cover 2 or leave a gap. When the flexible screen 3 is pre-installed in the second splicing mechanism 4, it is generally not completely fitted. The flexible screen 3 can be roughly installed in the inner cavity of the second splicing mechanism 4 by a method similar to a robotic arm or manual loading. Figure 7state, the inner cavity of the second splicing mechanism 4 will be reduced, and because it is a rough installation, the inner cavity of the second splicing mechanism 4 will generally not be directly reduced to the state of being in contact with the outer wall of the decorative cover 2, so it is necessary to further complete the contact between the two through air pressure later.

[0049] When the first splicing mechanism 5 is installed on the decorative cover 2, an installation gap is formed on the outer side of the decorative cover 2. The installation gap is not shown in the drawings. Figure 7 The gap between the top of the first splicing mechanism 5, the groove where the decorative cover 2 is installed, and the decorative cover 2 ( Figure 7 The chamfer is not shown, but can be referenced Figure 8 The chamfer in the middle), when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are fitted, the bottom of the flexible screen 3 is inserted into the installation gap; when the first pressure port 13 outputs gas, the decorative cover 2 is lifted up and fits with the flexible screen 3; when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are slightly opened (obviously, the slightly open here corresponds to the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 starting to form a closed area at a set distance before they are fully connected, and they are still in a closed state in the slightly open state), the gas source 16 outputs gas through the second pressure port 8 to move the fitted flexible screen 3 and the decorative cover 2 toward the side of the first splicing mechanism 5. At this time, you can refer to Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 The "P" and the corresponding arrow show the direction of air pressure. Then the bottom of the flexible screen 3 is bent by the chamfer and finally wrapped and fitted with the bottom surface of the decorative cover 2.

[0050] The following describes a specific solution in which the first pressure port 13 is opened and the second pressure port 8 is closed when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are fully fitted, and the first pressure port 13 is closed and the second pressure port 8 is opened when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are slightly opened.

[0051] First, the first pressure port 13 includes a gate structure, which includes a valve core and an action part for opening and closing the valve core; the second splicing mechanism 4 includes a transmission part 9 that cooperates with the action part; the transmission part 9 moves synchronously with the second splicing mechanism 4, and when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are completely attached, the transmission part 9 acts on the action part to make the valve core open the gate structure, and when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are not completely attached, the transmission part 9 acts on the action part to make the valve core close the gate structure. The gate structure achieves that when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are completely attached, the first pressure port 13 is kept open, so that the air source 16 exerts pressure on the decorative cover 2 through the first pressure port 13; at the same time, when the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are not completely attached, the first pressure port 13 is closed when the two are slightly opened, so that the air pressure at the bottom of the decorative cover 2 disappears, thereby preventing the air pressure interference maintained at the first pressure port 13 when the second pressure port 8 is opened later.

[0052] The following description will be continued by taking the example that the first splicing mechanism 5 is arranged at the bottom and the second splicing mechanism 4 is arranged at the top. Figures 5 to 10 As shown, the first splicing mechanism 5 is provided with a sliding cavity obliquely inside, a core rod 11 is slidably provided in the sliding cavity, an air hole 12 is provided in the middle of the core rod 11, and the sliding cavity and the first pressure port 13 are connected to form a connecting portion. When the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are completely attached, the air hole 12 of the core rod 11 corresponds to the connecting portion so that the first pressure port 13 is unobstructed (refer to Figure 8 ); the transmission part 9 is protrudingly arranged on the bottom surface of the second splicing mechanism 4. When the second splicing mechanism 4 moves down and fits with the first splicing mechanism 5, the transmission part 9 moves down and acts on the core rod 11 to make the core rod 11 move downwardly. When the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 fit together, the air hole 12 corresponds to the connecting part, and the air source 16 outputs gas to the decorative cover 2 through the first pressure port 13. At this time, the connection between the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 is tightly closed to close the closed area and connect the second airway; when the second splicing mechanism 4 moves upward by a set distance, the closed area is opened, and the air hole 12 and the connecting part are staggered. At this time, the first pressure port 13 is closed, and the air source 16 and the second pressure port 8 are connected and ventilated. This scheme is a preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned gate structure. The opening and closing of the first pressure port 13 is controlled by the setting of the core rod 11. The top of the core rod 11 can act on the transmission part 9 corresponding to the second splicing mechanism 4. When the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are completely fitted, the air hole 12 of the core rod 11 and the connecting part are connected, so that the first pressure port 13 is opened. When the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are slightly opened, the air hole 12 of the core rod 11 and the connecting part are staggered, and the first pressure port 13 is closed.

[0053] like Figure 8As shown, in order to facilitate the reset of the core rod 11, a spring 14 is provided at the bottom of the sliding cavity. The spring 14 acts on the core rod 11 so that the air hole 12 on the core rod 11 deviates upward and staggers the connecting portion in the initial state. Figure 7 and Fig. 9 shown.

[0054] In the process from the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 being completely fitted to being slightly opened (from Figure 8 to Figure 9 ), the actual action distance between the transmission part 9 and the core rod 11 is relatively small, so the movement distance of the core rod 11 under the action of the two is small, which easily leads to the situation that the air hole 12 and the connecting part of the core rod 11 are not completely staggered when slightly opened. At this time, part of the pressure output by the air source 16 acts on the decorative cover 2 through the first pressure port 13, which will cause a malfunction in the subsequent process of lowering the intermediate body and bending the bottom of the flexible screen 3. To solve this problem, refer to Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the transmission part 9 is arranged vertically; the first splicing mechanism 5 also includes an articulated rod 10, the bottom end of the articulated rod 10 acts on the top end of the core rod 11, and when the transmission part 9 descends, it acts on the middle part of the articulated rod 10 and causes it to rotate, and when the articulated rod 10 rotates, the outer end of the articulated rod 10 acts on the core rod 11 to make the core rod 11 move downwardly. Obviously, when the transmission part 9 descends, it acts on the middle part of the articulated rod 10, and the end of the articulated rod 10 acts on the core rod 11. When the transmission part 9 acts on the articulated rod 10 to rotate downward, the descending distance here is obviously less than the downward pressing distance of the end on the core rod 11, so that the articulated rod 10 plays a role of amplifying the stroke, which can effectively solve the problem of insufficient stroke of the core rod 11 when slightly opened.

[0055] Reference Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, without setting the hinge rod 10, the bottom of the transmission part 9 is set to an inclined surface, and the top of the core rod 11 is also set to an inclined surface. When the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are completely attached, that is, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 When the core rod 11 is in the state of Fig.12 The status moves to Fig.13 At this time, the air hole 12 of the core rod 11 is connected to the communication port, and the first pressure port 13 is opened, so that the decorative cover 2 can be pressed up and fit with the flexible screen 3. When the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are opened, the transmission part 9 rises, the spring 14 is reset, and the core rod 11 is also reset (if the hinge rod 10 is provided, the hinge rod 10 is also reset at this time).

[0056] The following describes how to form a sealed area before the first splicing mechanism 5 and the second splicing mechanism 4 are completely attached. The bottom of the second splicing mechanism 4 is formed with a sealing ring plate 15 and a sealing portion, and the top of the first splicing mechanism 5 is provided with an annular groove 18 on the outermost side, and the inner side of the annular groove 18 is correspondingly provided with a sealing step 6; when installing, the sealing ring plate 15 and the annular groove 18 are connected. Figure 6 Starting from the state shown, the sealing ring plate 15 and the outer wall of the sealing step 6 are in contact with each other, and a closed area begins to be formed at this time, and the sealing portion and the sealing step 6 are also in contact and sealed when they are completely in contact, that is, Figure 8 In combination with the arrangement of the first air channel and the second air channel in this embodiment, the bottom of the second communication port 21 is located at the bottom surface of the sealing portion; the top of the first communication port 17 is located at the top of the sealing step 6, and the position of the first communication port 17 is staggered from the action area of ​​the transmission portion 9. Figure 8 When the air source 16 and the second communication port 21 are in a fully fitted state, the air source 16 and the second communication port 21 are closed to each other; Fig.10 At this time, the gas source 16 enters through the top of the first connecting port 17 to the bottom of the second connecting port 21, and finally connects to the second pressure port 8 to apply pressure to the top surface of the flexible screen 3.

[0057] like Figure 8 As shown, after the decorative cover 2 and the flexible screen 3 are bonded together, the flexible screen 3 and the wall surface of the inner cavity 7 of the second splicing mechanism are relatively closed. Therefore, the air pressure applied on the top of the flexible screen 3 can better act on the flexible screen 3 and make the flexible screen 3 and the bonded decorative cover move down. Then the protruding part at the bottom of the flexible screen 3 acts on the chamfer, and finally bends and bonds to the bottom edge of the decorative cover 2.
