Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of vehicle antennas, and in particular relates to a vehicle sunroof and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] There are more and more antennas on existing vehicles, and the antenna integration is getting higher and higher. The typical form is the shark fin antenna. Shark fin antenna can integrate multiple antennas and be placed on the roof. There are also antenna boxes installed inside the dashboard.

[0003] However, the external antenna structure (such as the shark fin antenna mentioned above) will increase the wind resistance of the vehicle, which is not conducive to reducing the energy consumption of the vehicle, and will also affect the appearance design of the vehicle and increase wind noise. At the same time, considering the interference of the external environment, the design of the external antenna structure is relatively complex and costly, and the risk of antenna failure cannot be completely avoided (for example, the isolation between multiple antennas in a small space is difficult to ensure). The internal antenna structure (such as the antenna box in the dashboard mentioned above) is easily interfered by other communication equipment, especially after the glass is pasted with an insulating metal reflective film in the subsequent use of the vehicle, its performance will drop to 1 / 4 of ordinary glass or even completely unusable. In addition, the glass of high-end cars is increasingly using front-mounted coated glass, which is better than the film effect and has a greater impact on communication. Therefore, the reliability of this type of antenna box in the dashboard is poor. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle sunroof and a vehicle, which can avoid the adverse effects brought by the above-mentioned external form and internal form.

[0005] To achieve the purpose of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a vehicle sunroof, the vehicle sunroof comprising sunroof glass and an antenna assembly, the sunroof glass comprising a light-transmitting portion and a black portion surrounding the light-transmitting portion, the light-transmitting portion being used for transmitting light, the black portion being used for connecting to a vehicle body and being opposite to a ceiling, and the antenna assembly being arranged between the black portion and the ceiling. By arranging the antenna assembly between the black portion of the sunroof and the ceiling, the antenna assembly will not affect the exterior design of the vehicle, nor will it increase the wind resistance of the vehicle. Since the sunroof isolates the antenna assembly from the outside world, the design of the antenna assembly does not need to consider the outside environment, the structure is relatively simple and the cost is relatively low. At the same time, the antenna assembly is sufficiently far away from other communication devices in the vehicle (especially in the instrument panel), the antenna assembly is not easily interfered by them, and has high reliability.

[0007] In one embodiment, the vehicle sunroof further includes a vehicle communication box, the antenna assembly is disposed on the black portion and electrically connected to the vehicle communication box, and the vehicle communication box is used to communicate with the vehicle main control. By disposing the antenna assembly on the black portion, it is convenient to assemble the antenna assembly and the sunroof and then assemble the entire assembly to the vehicle body and the ceiling, which is conducive to simplifying the assembly of the entire vehicle. Moreover, the antenna assembly is disposed on the black portion, which will not affect the interior appearance. And the antenna assembly is electrically connected to the vehicle communication box, and the vehicle can interact with the outside world through the vehicle communication box and the antenna assembly.

[0008] In one embodiment, the vehicle-mounted communication box and the antenna assembly are disposed adjacent to each other on the same side of the black portion. By disposing the vehicle-mounted communication box and the antenna assembly adjacent to each other on the same side of the black portion, the distance between the vehicle-mounted communication box and the antenna assembly is shorter, and the length of the radio frequency cable is shorter, which is beneficial to reducing costs and signal attenuation.

[0009] In one embodiment, the distance between the vehicle-mounted communication box and the antenna assembly is 10 mm to 600 mm. By setting the distance between the two within 600 mm, the distance between the vehicle-mounted communication box and the antenna assembly is small, which is conducive to further shortening the length of the radio frequency cable, and the distance between the two is more than 10 mm, which can avoid interference during assembly of the vehicle-mounted communication box and the antenna assembly.

[0010] In one embodiment, the black portion has a protrusion extending into the light-transmitting portion, and the vehicle-mounted communication box and / or the antenna assembly is disposed on the protrusion. It is understandable that if the vehicle structure is relatively compact or the antenna assembly and / or the vehicle-mounted communication box are relatively large, the space between the skylight and the ceiling of the conventional design cannot accommodate the antenna assembly and / or the vehicle-mounted communication box. By providing a protrusion extending from the black portion into the light-transmitting portion, and disposing the antenna assembly and / or the vehicle-mounted communication box on the protrusion, the antenna assembly and / or the vehicle-mounted communication box have sufficient space for installation without affecting the appearance.

[0011] In one embodiment, the antenna assembly includes a navigation antenna, the light-transmitting portion has a center line, and the distance between the navigation antenna and the center line is less than 70 cm. By arranging the navigation antenna at a position within 70 cm (preferably within 50 cm) of the center line deviation of the light-transmitting portion, the navigation antenna is located in the middle of the vehicle, and the vehicle main control can obtain the accurate real-time position of the vehicle through the navigation antenna, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0012] In one embodiment, the vehicle sunroof further includes a sunshade, which is disposed on the ceiling, and which is retracted relative to the light-transmitting portion to block or expose the light-transmitting portion, and there is a spacing distance between the antenna assembly and the sunshade. By providing the sunshade, the sunshade can selectively block external light, thereby improving the user experience. At the same time, the sunshade and the antenna assembly are spaced apart, which can effectively reduce the risk of interference between the antenna assembly and the sunshade.

[0013] In one embodiment, the spacing distance is greater than or equal to 3 mm. By keeping the spacing distance between the antenna assembly and the sunshade greater than or equal to 3 mm, it can be ensured that the sunshade can operate normally without interfering with the antenna assembly.

[0014] In one embodiment, the vehicle sunroof further comprises a sheet metal part, the sheet metal part is arranged on the ceiling and connected to the black part, and the vehicle communication box is arranged on the sheet metal part. By arranging the vehicle communication box on the sheet metal part, the design can reasonably utilize the space, and can be applied when there is insufficient space between the ceiling and the sunroof, which is conducive to the vehicle sunroof antenna assembly and the vehicle communication box being suitable for different vehicle models.

[0015] In one embodiment, the sheet metal part is provided with a first clamping part, and the vehicle-mounted communication box is provided with a second clamping part, and the first clamping part and the second clamping part are clamped to fix the vehicle-mounted communication box and the sheet metal part relatively. By providing the first clamping part on the sheet metal part and the second clamping part on the vehicle-mounted communication box, the vehicle-mounted communication box can be relatively fixed to the sheet metal part by clamping, which is more convenient and helps to simplify the assembly process and reduce the difficulty of disassembly and assembly.

[0016] In one embodiment, the vehicle sunroof further includes a first mounting member and a second mounting member, the first mounting member is fixedly connected to the sunroof glass, the antenna assembly and / or the vehicle-mounted communication box is provided with a mounting hole, the second mounting member passes through the mounting hole and is fixedly matched with the first mounting member, or the first mounting member passes through the mounting hole and is fixedly matched with the second mounting member. By fixing the first mounting member to the black part, and by matching the first mounting member and the second mounting member to mount the antenna assembly or the vehicle-mounted communication box on the black part, the structure is relatively simple and convenient, and the antenna assembly and the communication box are not visible from the appearance, which is conducive to simplifying the assembly process, reducing the difficulty of disassembly and assembly, and improving the aesthetics.

[0017] In one embodiment, the first mounting member and the black portion are an integrated structure. By setting the first mounting member and the black portion as an integrated structure, the first mounting member and the black portion can be integrally injection molded, thereby further simplifying the manufacturing process and the assembly process.

[0018] In one embodiment, part or all of the first mounting member and the light-transmitting portion are an integrated structure. By setting part or all of the first mounting member and the light-transmitting portion as an integrated structure, part or all of the first mounting member and the light-transmitting portion can be integrally injection molded, thereby further simplifying the manufacturing process and assembly process.

[0019] In one embodiment, the skylight glass is provided with a coating, and a communication window is provided at a position of the coating relative to the antenna assembly, and the antenna assembly transmits and receives signals through the communication window. It is understandable that the antenna assembly is provided on the skylight glass and in close contact, so only a small communication window needs to be provided at a position corresponding to the coating to meet the communication needs of the antenna assembly, and the reliability of the antenna assembly is stronger. In addition, the above arrangement not only has no effect on the appearance, but also can apply a coating that is beneficial to energy saving and environmental protection.

[0020] In a second aspect, the present invention further provides a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a master control device, a roof, a vehicle body and a vehicle sunroof as described in any one of the embodiments of the first aspect, the master control device and the roof are both installed in the vehicle body, the vehicle sunroof is installed on the vehicle body and opposite to the roof, and the antenna assembly of the vehicle sunroof is electrically connected to the master control device. By adding the vehicle sunroof provided by the present invention to the vehicle, since the structure of the vehicle sunroof is relatively simple and the cost is relatively low, it is beneficial to reduce the manufacturing cost of the entire vehicle. In addition, since the antenna assembly of the vehicle sunroof is installed between the black part of the sunroof and the roof, the antenna assembly will not affect the appearance design and wind resistance of the vehicle, and the antenna assembly is not easily interfered with, and has high reliability, which is beneficial to interactive communication between the vehicle and the outside world.

[0048] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0049] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a vehicle sunroof 100 and a ceiling 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention (viewed from the inside of the vehicle to the outside of the vehicle). An embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle sunroof 100, which includes a sunroof glass 10 and an antenna assembly 20. The sunroof glass 10 includes a light-transmitting portion 11 and a black portion 12 surrounding the light-transmitting portion 11, the black portion 12 is used to connect to the vehicle body and is opposite to the ceiling 200, and the antenna assembly 20 is arranged between the black portion 12 and the ceiling 200.

[0050] Specifically, the skylight glass 10 can be single-layer glass or double-layer glass. The ceiling 200 is provided with a light hole 2001, and the light-transmitting portion 11 covers the light hole 2001. The light-transmitting portion 11 of the skylight glass 10 has the same shape as the light hole 2001. In this embodiment, the light-transmitting portion 11 and the light hole 2001 are both in a rounded rectangular shape.

[0051] The black part 12 of the sunroof glass 10 is formed by ceramic sintering technology. The black part 12 is mainly used to prevent the internal structure of the vehicle (such as glue, sheet metal, etc.) from being seen from the outside and to enhance the structural strength of the edge of the sunroof glass 10.

[0052] The antenna assembly 20 can be arranged on the black part 12 or on the ceiling 200. In this embodiment, the antenna assembly 20 is arranged on the black part 12. In other embodiments, a reinforcing plate can be arranged on the surface of the ceiling 200 facing the skylight glass 10 to provide the overall strength of the ceiling 200, and then the antenna assembly 20 is arranged on the reinforcing plate.

[0053] In this embodiment, the antenna assembly 20 includes 2 V2X antennas, 4 5G antennas and 1 GNSS antenna, and may also include 1 Bluetooth antenna, 1 WiFi antenna, 1 AM antenna, multiple FM antennas, etc., among which the GNSS antenna is a multi-frequency navigation (Beidou, GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO) antenna.

[0054] It is understandable that the external antenna in the prior art is exposed to the environment. In order to resist environmental interference, the external antenna needs to have high strength and sealing performance, which greatly increases the complexity of the external antenna structure. Even if the strength and sealing performance are improved, the external antenna still has the risk of failure due to small space, poor antenna performance, low isolation, high cost and low reliability. As for the antenna built into the instrument panel, since it is close to other communication modules of the instrument panel, the signals sent and received by the built-in antenna are more easily interfered by other communication modules. In addition, the built-in antenna will be shielded by the coated glass or the post-installed film, resulting in signal loss and other problems.

[0055] By setting the antenna assembly 20 between the black portion 12 of the sunroof glass 10 and the ceiling 200, the antenna assembly 20 will not affect the vehicle's appearance design, nor will it increase the vehicle's wind resistance. Since the sunroof glass 10 isolates the antenna assembly 20 from the outside world, the design of the antenna assembly 20 does not need to consider the external environment, and the structure is relatively simple and the cost is low. At the same time, the antenna assembly 20 has a sufficient distance from other communication equipment in the vehicle, and the antenna assembly 20 is not easily interfered with, and has strong reliability.

[0056] For an implementation method, please continue to refer to Figure 1, the vehicle sunroof 100 also includes a vehicle communication box 30 (T-box). The antenna assembly 20 is arranged on the black part 12 and is electrically connected to the vehicle communication box 30. The vehicle communication box 30 is used to communicate with the vehicle master control. Specifically, the vehicle communication box 30 is located between the black part 12 and the ceiling 200. The vehicle communication box 30 can be arranged on the black part 12 or on the ceiling 200. The vehicle communication box 30 is electrically connected to the antenna assembly 20 through a radio frequency cable 21, and the vehicle communication box 30 is electrically connected to the vehicle's master control device through a multi-strand wire 31. Such a connection can realize the interaction between the vehicle master control and the outside world, such as receiving radio broadcasts, 5G communications, V2X communications, high-precision positioning services, etc. By arranging the antenna assembly 20 on the black part 12, it is convenient to assemble the antenna assembly 20 and the sunroof glass 10 and then assemble them as a whole above the vehicle body and the ceiling 200, which is conducive to simplifying the assembly of the whole vehicle. Moreover, the antenna assembly 20 is arranged on the black part 12, which will not affect the interior view. The antenna assembly 20 is electrically connected to the vehicle communication box 30 , and the vehicle can interact with the outside world through the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 .

[0057] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a skylight glass 10 and an antenna assembly 20 according to an embodiment. Figure 3 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a sunroof glass 10 and an antenna assembly 20 in another embodiment. In this embodiment, the black portion 12 includes a front end 1201 and a rear end 1202 opposite to each other, the front end 1201 is a side corresponding to the front windshield of the vehicle, and the rear end 1202 is a side corresponding to the rear windshield of the vehicle. The antenna assembly 20 is arranged at the front end 1201 or the rear end 1202.

[0058] In one implementation, please continue to refer to Figure 1 , the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 are adjacently arranged on the same side of the black portion 12. It is understandable that the cost of the RF cable 21 between the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 is relatively high. If the RF cable 21 is too long, the cost is likely to increase. Moreover, there will be signal attenuation when the signal is transmitted on the RF cable 21. The higher the frequency, the greater the attenuation. Today's intelligent network communication is developing towards higher and higher frequencies and even millimeter waves. If the RF cable 21 is too long, the signal attenuation is more serious. By arranging the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 on the same side of the black portion 12, the distance between the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 is shorter, and the length of the RF cable 21 is shorter, which is conducive to reducing costs and reducing signal attenuation.

[0059] In one implementation, please continue to refer to Figure 1, the distance between the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 is 10mm to 600mm. By setting the distance between the two within 600mm, the distance between the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 is small, which is conducive to further shortening the length of the radio frequency cable 21, and the distance between the two is more than 10mm, which can avoid interference during the assembly of the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20. Preferably, the distance between the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 is within 50mm, so as to better shorten the length of the radio frequency cable 21.

[0060] In other embodiments, the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 may be provided as two-in-one, that is, the distance between the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 is zero, the components of the vehicle communication box 30 and the components of the antenna assembly 20 are integrated into the same housing, and the housing is then mounted on the black portion 12. Of course, the two-in-one vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly may also partially protrude from the light-transmitting portion.

[0061] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a skylight glass 10 and a vehicle communication box 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the skylight glass 10 and the vehicle communication box 30 according to another embodiment. In this embodiment, the vehicle communication box 30 is arranged at the front end 1201 or the rear end 1202 of the black portion 12 .

[0062] See also Figure 1 Preferably, the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20 are arranged at the front end 1201 or the rear end 1202 to shorten the distance between the vehicle communication box 30 and the antenna assembly 20.

[0063] In one implementation, see Figure 1 and Figure 6 , Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the structure of the sunroof glass 10 and the antenna assembly 20 in another embodiment. The black portion 12 has a protrusion 121 extending into the light-transmitting portion 11, and the vehicle communication box 30 and / or the antenna assembly 20 are arranged on the protrusion 121. It can be understood that if the vehicle structure is relatively compact (for example, more and more vehicles use sunroofs without sunshades) or the volume of the antenna assembly 20 and / or the vehicle communication box 30 is relatively large, the space between the sunroof glass 10 and the ceiling 200 of conventional design cannot accommodate the antenna assembly 20 and / or the vehicle communication box 30. By setting the black portion 12 to extend into the light-transmitting portion 11 to form a protrusion 121, the antenna assembly 20 and / or the vehicle communication box 30 are arranged on the protrusion 121, and the antenna assembly 20 and / or the vehicle communication box 30 have sufficient space for installation, and at the same time will not affect the appearance.

[0064] In this embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 6 and Fig.11 , the protrusion 121 is located at the front end 1201 of the black part 12. The shape of the light hole 2001 corresponds to the shape of the light-transmitting part 11, both of which are rounded rectangles with concave front sides. Part of the antenna assembly 20 is set on the protrusion 121, and the vehicle communication box 30 can be set at other positions of the black part 12, or on other components around the sunroof glass 10.

[0065] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 and Fig.11 , Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the structure of the skylight glass 10 and the antenna assembly 20 in another embodiment. The protrusion 121 is located at the rear end 1202 of the black part 12, and the shape of the light hole 2001 corresponds to the shape of the light-transmitting part 11, both of which are rounded rectangles with concave rear sides. Part of the antenna assembly 20 is arranged on the protrusion 121. It can be understood that the protrusion 121 can also be located near the inner edges of the black part 12, and the shape of the protrusion is not limited to a rounded rectangle, but can also be an arc or a polygon or other shapes.

[0066] In other embodiments, the vehicle communication box 30 may be disposed on the protrusion 121 alone, or may be disposed on the protrusion 121 together with the antenna assembly 20. The antenna assembly 20 and / or the vehicle communication box 30 may be disposed entirely on the first protrusion 121. Alternatively, on the premise of disposing the first protrusion 121, the vehicle communication box 30 and / or the antenna assembly 20 may be disposed at a position adjacent to the black portion 12 and the first protrusion 121.

[0067] In one implementation, see Figure 1 , the antenna assembly 20 includes a navigation antenna (not shown). The light-transmitting portion 11 has a center line 90, and the distance between the navigation antenna and the center line 90 is within 70 cm. Specifically, the center line 90 of the light-transmitting portion 11 extends from the front end 1201 to the rear end 1202. Preferably, the navigation antenna is located on the center line 90, that is, the distance between the navigation antenna and the center line 90 is zero. By setting the navigation antenna at a position corresponding to the center line 90 of the light-transmitting portion 11, the navigation antenna is located in the middle of the vehicle, and the vehicle network can obtain the accurate real-time position of the vehicle through the navigation antenna, which is conducive to precise positioning and improving user experience.

[0068] In one implementation, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 , Figure 8 FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a vehicle sunroof 100 and a roof 200 in another embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 9 for Figure 8The cross-sectional structural diagram of the vehicle sunroof 100 along the AA direction. The vehicle sunroof 100 also includes a sunshade 40, which is arranged on the ceiling 200. The sunshade 40 is telescopic relative to the light-transmitting portion 11 to block the light-transmitting portion 11 (light-through hole 2001) or expose the light-transmitting portion 11 (light-through hole 2001), and the antenna assembly 20 and the sunshade 40 are spaced apart. By providing the sunshade 40, the sunshade 40 can selectively block external light and enhance the user experience. At the same time, the sunshade 40 and the antenna assembly 20 are spaced apart, which can effectively reduce the risk of interference between the antenna assembly 20 and the sunshade 40.

[0069] In one implementation, see Fig. 9 , the spacing distance is greater than or equal to 3 mm. By keeping the spacing distance between the antenna assembly 20 and the sunshade 40 greater than or equal to 3 mm, it can be ensured that the sunshade 40 can operate normally without interfering with the antenna assembly 20. In particular, it is preferred that the spacing distance is greater than or equal to 8 mm, and a sufficient spacing distance can further reduce the risk of interference between the sunshade 40 and the antenna assembly 20.

[0070] Specifically, the spacing distance can be 8mm, 9mm, 11mm, 14mm and 20mm, etc. The preferred spacing distance is not more than 30mm to avoid excessive compression of the space inside the vehicle.

[0071] In one implementation, see Fig.10 , Fig.10 for Figure 8 The vehicle communication box in this embodiment also has a spacing distance from the sunshade 40 to ensure that the sunshade 40 can operate normally without interfering with the vehicle communication box.

[0072] In one implementation, see Fig.11 and Fig.12 , Fig.11 FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a vehicle sunroof 100 and a roof 200 according to another embodiment of the present invention. Fig.12 for Fig.11 The vehicle sunroof 100 further includes a sheet metal part 60, which is disposed on the roof 200 and connected to the black portion 12. The vehicle communication box 30 is disposed on the sheet metal part 60. By disposing the vehicle communication box 30 on the sheet metal part 60, the design can reasonably utilize the space, and can be applied to the case where there is insufficient space between the roof 200 and the sunroof glass 10, which is conducive to the antenna assembly 20 and the vehicle communication box 30 being applicable to different vehicle models.

[0073] In this embodiment, part of the antenna assembly 20 is disposed on the first protrusion 121, the sheet metal 60 and the antenna assembly 20 are located on the same side of the black portion 12 (the outer edge of the black portion 12 and the sheet metal 60 can be glued, but not limited to this), and the sheet metal 60 and the antenna assembly 20 are adjacent, and the vehicle communication box 30 is disposed at a position on the sheet metal 60 close to the antenna assembly 20.

[0074] In one implementation, see Fig.13 , Fig.13 for Fig.12 The structural diagram of the sheet metal part 60 and the vehicle communication box 30 is shown in FIG. The sheet metal part 60 is provided with a first clamping portion 61, and the vehicle communication box 30 is provided with a second clamping portion 32. The first clamping portion 61 and the second clamping portion 32 are clamped to fix the vehicle communication box 30 and the sheet metal part 60 relatively. By providing the first clamping portion 61 on the sheet metal part 60 and the second clamping portion 32 on the vehicle communication box 30, the vehicle communication box 30 is relatively fixed to the sheet metal part 60 by clamping. This method is more convenient and helps to simplify the assembly process and reduce the difficulty of disassembly and assembly.

[0075] In this embodiment, the second clamping parts 32 are provided on opposite sides of the vehicle communication box 30, and the sheet metal part 60 is provided with first clamping parts 61 at positions corresponding to the second clamping parts 32. The first clamping parts 61 are through holes, and the second clamping parts 32 are buckle structures, which are inserted into the through holes to complete the buckle connection.

[0076] In other embodiments, the first clamping portion 61 may also be a clamping structure, and the second clamping portion 32 may be a through hole, and the clamping is completed by inserting the second clamping portion 32 (through hole) into the first clamping portion 61 (snap-fit ​​structure).

[0077] In one implementation, see Fig.14 , Fig.14 The schematic diagram of the installation structure of the vehicle communication box 30 or the antenna assembly 20 and the sunroof glass 10 in one embodiment. The vehicle sunroof 100 also includes a first mounting member 51 and a second mounting member 52, and the first mounting member 51 is fixedly connected to the sunroof glass 10. The antenna assembly 20 and / or the vehicle communication box 30 is provided with a mounting hole 201. The second mounting member 52 passes through the mounting hole 201 and is fixedly matched with the first mounting member 51, or the first mounting member 51 passes through the mounting hole 201 and is fixedly matched with the second mounting member 52. By fixing the first mounting member 51 to the black part 12, and by matching the second mounting member 52 and the first mounting member 51, the antenna assembly 20 is installed on the black part 12. The structure is relatively simple and convenient. The antenna assembly 20 and the vehicle communication box 30 are not visible from the appearance, which is conducive to simplifying the assembly process, reducing the difficulty of disassembly and assembly, and improving the aesthetics.

[0078] In this embodiment, the first mounting member 51 includes a bracket 511 and a nut member 512. The nut member 512 is embedded in the bracket 511 and fixed relative to the bracket 511. The bracket 511 is fixed to the black part 12 of the sunroof glass 10 by means of adhesive 53. The nut member 512 is provided with an internal thread, and the second mounting member 52 is provided with an external thread (i.e., a screw). The second mounting member 52 passes through the mounting hole 201 from the side of the vehicle-mounted communication box 30 (antenna assembly 20) facing away from the first mounting member 51, and is threadedly connected with the nut member 512, thereby fixing the vehicle-mounted communication box 30 (antenna assembly 20) to the black part 12 of the sunroof glass 10.

[0079] In other embodiments, the bracket 511 and the nut member 512 may be integrally formed, for example, by injection molding to form the first mounting member 51 with internal threads. The bracket 511 may also be fixed to the light-transmitting portion by means of adhesive 53 .

[0080] In one implementation, see Fig.15 , Fig.15 Schematic diagram of the installation structure of the vehicle communication box 30 or the antenna assembly 20 and the sunroof glass 10 in another embodiment. The first mounting member 51 and the black part 12 are an integrated structure. Preferably, by setting the first mounting member 51 and the black part 12 as an integrated structure, the first mounting member 51 and the black part 12 can be integrally injection molded, thereby further simplifying the manufacturing process and the assembly process.

[0081] In this embodiment, the bracket 511 of the first mounting member 51 and the sunroof glass 10 are an integrated structure, and the nut member 512 of the first mounting member 51 is embedded in the bracket 511 .

[0082] In other embodiments, the bracket 511 and the nut member 512 of the first mounting member 51 may also be integrally formed with the sunroof glass 10 .

[0083] Of course, in the first mounting member 51 in the above embodiment, a screw member with an external thread (not shown) can also be used to replace the nut member 512, and the second mounting member 52 is provided with an internal thread. The vehicle communication box 30 (antenna assembly 20) and the black part 12 of the sunroof glass 10 are fixedly connected by the screw member passing through the mounting hole 201 and being threadedly connected to the second mounting member 52.

[0084] In one implementation, see Fig.16 , Fig.16 The figure is a schematic diagram of the structure of a skylight glass 10 and an antenna assembly 20 according to an embodiment. The skylight glass 10 is provided with a coating 101 , and a communication window 1011 is provided at a position opposite to the coating 101 and the antenna assembly 20 , and the antenna assembly 20 transmits and receives signals through the communication window 1011 .

[0085] In this embodiment, the coating 101 is set on the skylight glass 10 and covers the entire surface of the skylight glass 10 facing the antenna assembly 20. The communication window 1011 is located in the black part or the light-transmitting part of the skylight glass 10 and is opposite to the antenna assembly 20. External signals (such as radio) can pass through the skylight glass 10 through the communication window 1011 and enter the antenna assembly 10. The signal emitted by the antenna assembly 10 can also pass through the skylight glass 10 and reach the outside through the communication window 1011, thereby completing the communication between the antenna assembly 10 and the outside.

[0086] It is understandable that the antenna assembly 20 is arranged on the black part 12 and is in close contact with the black part 12 (such as in the form of lamination or bonding), so it is only necessary to open a smaller communication window 1011 at the position corresponding to the coating 101 to meet the communication needs of the antenna assembly 20, and the reliability of the antenna assembly 20 is stronger. In addition, the above arrangement not only has no effect on the appearance, but also can apply the coating 101 that is beneficial to energy saving and environmental protection. If the antenna assembly 20 is not arranged on the black part 12 or the light-transmitting part 11, and the distance between the antenna assembly 20 and the coating 101 is too far, the size of the communication window 1011 required to be opened by the coating 101 is too large, which not only greatly affects the appearance, but also makes it difficult to remove the film in terms of process, which is not conducive to the application of the coating 101 that is beneficial to energy saving and environmental protection on the skylight glass 10.

[0087] See also Fig.17 , Fig.17 Schematic diagram of the structure of a vehicle 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment of the present invention further provides a vehicle 1000, which includes a vehicle sunroof 100, a roof 200, a master control device 300 and a vehicle body 400. The master control device 300 and the roof 200 are both installed in the vehicle body 400. The vehicle sunroof 100 is installed on the vehicle body 400 and is opposite to the roof 200. The antenna assembly 20 of the vehicle sunroof 100 is electrically connected to the master control device 300. Specifically, the antenna assembly 20 is electrically connected to the master control device 300 through the vehicle communication box 30. The master control device 300 can control window switches, play broadcasts, display navigation routes, and control air conditioning switches. By adding the vehicle sunroof 100 provided by the present invention to the vehicle 1000, since the vehicle sunroof 100 has a relatively simple structure and low cost, it is beneficial to reduce the manufacturing cost of the entire vehicle. In addition, since the antenna assembly 20 of the vehicle sunroof 100 is installed between the black portion 12 of the sunroof glass 10 and the ceiling 200, the antenna assembly 20 will not affect the vehicle's appearance design and wind resistance, and the antenna assembly 20 is not easily interfered with, has strong reliability, and is beneficial to interactive communication between the vehicle and the outside world.
