[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present embodiment provides a rear wiper assembly, including a back door switch and a rear wiper. The rear wiper includes a wiper shaft 1, a wiper seat 2, a wiper arm assembly and a wiper cover assembly 4. A wiring hole 11 is provided on the wiper shaft 1. The wiper seat 2 is connected to the wiper shaft 1. The wiper arm assembly includes a wiper arm body and a connecting portion 3, wherein the connecting portion 3 is provided at one end of the wiper arm body, and the connecting portion 3 is connected to the wiper seat 2. The wiper cover assembly 4 is connected to the wiper seat 2 and covers the connecting portion 3. The back door switch includes a micro switch 5 and a wiring harness 6. The micro switch 5 is provided on the wiper shaft 1 and is located on the inner side of the wiper cover assembly 4, so as to realize the hidden installation of the micro switch 5. The wiring harness 6 passes through the wiring hole 11 and is electrically connected to the micro switch 5. The wiring harness 6 has the function of transmitting electrical energy and electrical signals. The portion of the wiper cover assembly 4 corresponding to the micro switch 5 is deformable.

[0040] When the back door of the vehicle needs to be opened, the corresponding part of the wiper cover assembly 4 and the micro switch 5 is pressed, and the wiper cover assembly 4 at the pressed part is deformed until the deformed part of the wiper cover assembly 4 contacts the micro switch 5, so that the micro switch 5 is pressed and triggered, thereby opening the back door. The micro switch 5 is hidden inside the wiper cover, and the wiring harness 6 is passed through the wiper shaft 1, so that the back door switch is integrated into the rear wiper, and there is no need to find an additional space on the back door to install the back door switch, which is particularly suitable for vehicles with a relatively flat rear end.

[0041] Optionally, the back door switch also includes an infrared transmitter 71 and an infrared receiver 72, and the infrared receiver 72 can receive the signal transmitted by the infrared transmitter 71. Exemplarily, when the back door is in a closed state, the infrared receiver 72 can receive the signal transmitted by the infrared transmitter 71. When the infrared receiver 72 cannot receive the signal transmitted by the infrared transmitter 71, the back door opens. Specifically, when the back door of the vehicle needs to be opened, manually scan the set area, which is located between the infrared transmitter 71 and the infrared receiver 72, so that the signal transmission between the infrared receiver 72 and the infrared transmitter 71 is interrupted for a moment, and the back door is opened by gesture, without contact, which is more convenient and labor-saving. The back door is opened by manually pressing the micro switch 5 or manually scanning the set area. The user can choose one of the methods at will, which is more convenient to use.

[0042] Exemplarily, the wiring hole 11 passes through the axial direction of the wiper shaft 1 ; the bottom of the micro switch 5 is inserted into the wiring hole 11 and is electrically connected to the wiring harness 6 .

[0043] Optionally, the wiper cover assembly 4 includes an inner cover 41 and an outer cover 42, the outer cover 42 is arranged at intervals on the outer side of the inner cover 41, the inner cover 41 covers the connecting portion 3, a first avoidance hole is arranged on the inner cover 41, one end of the micro switch 5 away from the wiper seat 2 extends out of the inner cover 41 through the first avoidance hole, and the part of the outer cover 42 corresponding to the micro switch 5 is deformable. The micro switch 5 is penetrated by the first avoidance hole to realize the installation and positioning of the wiper cover assembly 4 and the micro switch 5, and the inner cover 41 also plays a role in limiting the micro switch 5. Exemplarily, the bottom end of the inner cover 41 is clamped with the wiper seat 2; the bottom end of the outer cover 42 is also clamped with the wiper seat 2.

[0044] Optionally, the infrared transmitter 71 and the infrared receiver 72 are both arranged on the outside of the inner cover 41, and the outer cover 42 is provided with a second avoidance hole and a third avoidance hole. The transmitting end of the infrared transmitter 71 extends out of the outer cover 42 through the second avoidance hole, and the receiving end of the infrared receiver 72 extends out of the outer cover 42 through the third avoidance hole, ensuring that the user can manually scan the area between the transmitting end of the infrared transmitter 71 and the receiving end of the infrared receiver 72 to open the back door.

[0045] Optionally, the outer cover 42 is a plastic part, and the outer cover 42 includes a first part 421 and a second part 422 that are connected. The first part 421 corresponds to the micro switch 5. The hardness of the first part 421 is less than that of the second part 422. The first part 421 can undergo a large amount of deformation, so that the deformed first part 421 can contact the micro switch 5, thereby transmitting the pressing force to the micro switch 5, so that the micro switch 5 is triggered.

[0046] Optionally, the first part 421 is made of a transparent material so that the user can easily see the micro switch 5 and find the pressing position; or, the first part 421 is provided with a pressing mark so that the user can easily find the pressing position. Exemplarily, the pressing mark can be a combination of one or more of numbers, letters, or patterns (such as arrows).

[0047] The present embodiment also provides a back door opening method, using the above rear wiper assembly, the back door opening method comprising: pressing the portion of the wiper cover assembly 4 corresponding to the micro switch 5, deforming the wiper cover assembly 4 at the pressed portion until the deformed portion of the wiper cover assembly 4 contacts the micro switch 5, so that the micro switch 5 is pressed and triggered, and the back door is opened. By pressing the wiper cover assembly 4, the wiper cover assembly 4 is deformed, so that the micro switch 5 located inside the wiper cover assembly 4 is triggered.

[0048] Optionally, the back door opening method further includes: manually sweeping over a set area to open the back door; the set area is located between the infrared transmitter 71 and the infrared receiver 72. When the set area is manually swept over, the infrared receiver 72 cannot receive the signal emitted by the infrared transmitter 71, and thus recognizes the gesture, and the back door can be opened without contact.

[0049] Optionally, when the identification component in the vehicle cannot identify the key of the vehicle, or the identification component in the vehicle identifies that the key is greater than a set distance from the vehicle, the back door cannot be opened; that is, at this time, even if the micro switch 5 is pressed or the above-mentioned set area is manually scanned, the back door cannot be opened. When the identification component in the vehicle identifies that the key is not greater than a set distance from the vehicle, the back door can be opened; that is, at this time, when the micro switch 5 is pressed or the above-mentioned set area is manually scanned, the back door can be opened. Exemplarily, near field communication (NFC) technology can be used between the identification component and the key to achieve signal transmission and identification. When the identification component in the vehicle cannot identify the key of the vehicle, or the identification component in the vehicle identifies that the key is greater than a set distance from the vehicle, the back door opening function is locked to avoid false triggering by outsiders or foreign objects (such as rain, mud, animals or branches), thereby improving the safety of the vehicle.

[0050] This embodiment provides a computer-readable storage medium, on which a computer program is stored. When the program is executed by a processor, a back door opening method provided in an embodiment of the present invention is implemented. The method includes:

[0052] The back door is opened by manually scanning the set area; the set area is between the infrared transmitter 71 and the infrared receiver 72. When the set area is manually scanned, the infrared receiver 72 cannot receive the signal emitted by the infrared transmitter 71, and thus recognizes the gesture, and the back door can be opened without contact.

[0053] When the identification component inside the vehicle cannot recognize the vehicle key, or the identification component inside the vehicle recognizes that the key is greater than a set distance from the vehicle, the back door cannot be opened; when the identification component inside the vehicle recognizes that the key is not greater than a set distance from the vehicle, the back door can be opened.
