[0027] Features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of the present application will be described in detail below. In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, it will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that the present application can be practiced without some or all of these specific details. The description of the embodiments is merely illustrative of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, as is apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art. In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. It will be apparent, however, to one of ordinary skill in the art that the present application can be practiced without some or all of these specific details. In other instances, well known structures and functions have not been described in detail in order to not unnecessarily obscure the present application. Also, well-known structures and functions have not been shown in detail to avoid obscuring the present application. In addition, features, structures or characteristics described below can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
[0028] In addition, the size and thickness of each configuration shown in the drawings are arbitrarily shown for the purpose of understanding and easy description, but the present application concept is not limited thereto. In the drawings, the thickness of layers, films, panels, and regions, etc. is exaggerated for clarity. In the drawings, the thickness of some layers and regions is exaggerated for the purpose of better understanding and easy description.
[0029] It will be understood that when an element such as a layer, film, region, or substrate is referred to as being "on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or intervening elements can also be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being "directly on" another element, there are no intervening elements present. In addition, throughout the specification, the word "comprising" or "comprises," when used in a statement of subject matter to which the present application pertains, is to be interpreted as specifically including the stated elements or steps, but not to the exclusion of any other elements or steps.
[0030] In addition, unless explicitly described to the contrary, the word "comprise" will be understood to imply the inclusion of stated elements but not the exclusion of any other elements.
[0031] In order to display a picture on the window glass of a vehicle, a display panel is usually integrated on the window glass, and a driving circuit and other components for driving the display panel to emit light are integrated on a frame of the window assembly, such as a B-pillar, a roof, etc., so as to drive the light-emitting elements in the display panel to emit light through the driving circuit. However, in the related art, when the vehicle encounters a rainy weather, rainwater may enter the interior of the vehicle and flow downward, and the rainwater may contact the driving circuit, which may cause a short circuit of the driving circuit and other problems. As a result, the display panel of the window glass may fail to display a picture.
[0032] Therefore, as shown in the following Figures 1 to 4 The present embodiment provides a window assembly 10 including a frame 11, a window glass 12, and a driving circuit 13. The frame 11 includes a body portion 111 and a window frame 112 having a receiving groove 112a, and the window frame 112 and the body portion 111 jointly define a window 10a. The window glass 12 includes a display panel 121 having a first electrical connection end 1211, and the window glass 12 has an open state and a closed state. In the closed state, the window glass 12 cooperates with the receiving groove 112a to cover the window 10a. In the open state, the window glass 12 is at least partially disengaged from the receiving groove 112a to be accommodated in the body portion 111. The driving circuit 13 includes a circuit body 131 and a second electrical connection end 132, the circuit body 131 is electrically connected to the second electrical connection end 132, the circuit body 131 is arranged in the body portion 111 and located above a plane where a bottom edge of the window 10a is located, and the second electrical connection end 132 is arranged in the receiving groove 112a. In the closed state, the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 are electrically connected to enable the display panel 121 to display a picture. Of course, the window glass 12 can have other states between the open state and the closed state.
[0033] The window assembly 10 includes the body portion 111 and the window frame 112. The body portion 111 can be a part of a vehicle frame of a vehicle 1. For example, the body portion 111 can include a door, an A-pillar, a B-pillar, or a roof of the vehicle 1, etc.
[0034] The window frame 112 surrounds a portion of the window 10a and leaves an opening on one side to allow the window glass 12 to exit or enter the window 10a through the opening during the opening or closing process.
[0035] The window glass 12 includes the display panel 121. The window glass 12 can include only the display panel 121. In this case, the display panel 121 has a certain hardness and can display a picture and has a certain load-bearing capacity. Of course, the window glass 12 can include other glass structures, and the display panel 121 is attached to the glass structures. In this case, the display panel 121 can be flexible.
[0036] In the process of displaying the picture, the display panel 121 can be set as a transparent display panel, that is, in the process of displaying the picture, the personnel inside the vehicle 1 can still observe the scene outside through the vehicle window glass 12.
[0037] When the vehicle window glass 12 is in the closed state, the vehicle window glass 12 cooperates with the accommodating groove 112a, so that the vehicle window glass 12 covers the window 10a, and when the vehicle window glass 12 is in the open state, the vehicle window glass 12 is at least partially disengaged from the accommodating groove 112a, so that the vehicle window glass 12 is completely accommodated in the body part 111, and the window 10a is not covered by the vehicle window glass 12. During the process of the vehicle window glass 12 from the open state to the closed state, or from the closed state to the open state, the edge of the vehicle window glass 12 can slide relative to the accommodating groove 112a.
[0038] The driving circuit 13 includes a circuit body 131 and a second electrical connection end 132, the circuit body 131 can include at least one of a power supply, a driving IC, a circuit board or a flexible circuit board, etc., the circuit body 131 is electrically connected with the second electrical connection end 132, and when the second electrical connection end 132 is electrically connected with the first electrical connection end, the driving circuit 13 is electrically connected with the display panel 121 to drive the normal display of the display panel 121.
[0039] The second electrical connection end 132 is arranged in the accommodating groove 112a, and when the vehicle window glass 12 is in the closed state, the second electrical connection end 132 is in contact with and electrically connected with the first electrical connection end 1211, and the driving circuit 13 drives the normal display of the display panel 121. Therefore, the first electrical connection end 1211 can be arranged at a position corresponding to the second electrical connection of the vehicle window glass 12, so that the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 can maintain the contact state when the vehicle window glass 12 is in the closed state.
[0040] It can be understood that the positions and shapes of the second electrical connection end 132 and the first electrical connection end 1211 can be set as needed, so that the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 can be electrically connected at the corresponding time, and then the display panel 121 can display the picture at the corresponding time.
[0041] Exemplarily, the second electric connection end 132 can be arranged at the side of the accommodating groove 112a farthest from the vehicle window glass 12, so that the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 are electrically connected only when the vehicle window glass 12 is in the closed state, the vehicle window glass 12 displays the picture only in the closed state, and the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 are not electrically connected when the vehicle window glass 12 is in the open state or in the state between the open state and the closed state, and the display panel 121 cannot display the picture. Alternatively, the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 can be arranged in a strip shape and located on the path of the sliding part of the vehicle window glass 12 relative to the accommodating groove 112a during the process from the open state to the closed state, so that the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 are electrically connected after a certain time during the process from the open state to the closed state and in the closed state, and the display panel 121 displays the picture. In this way, the vehicle window glass 12 can display the picture not only in the closed state but also in the case that the vehicle window glass 12 is opened by a part.
[0042] The circuit body 131 is arranged in the body part 111 and located above the plane of the bottom edge of the window 10a, so that the circuit body 131 can be arranged above or on the side of the window 10a along the gravity direction. In the rainy weather, the rainwater enters the interior of the body part 111 through the window 10a and flows downward along the gravity direction due to the gravity. In this way, the risk of the contact between the rainwater and the circuit body 131 to cause the short circuit or corrosion of the circuit body 131 is reduced.
[0043] The vehicle window assembly 10 provided by the embodiment of the application has the following advantages. The second electric connection end 132 of the driving circuit 13 is arranged in the accommodating groove 112a, so that the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 are electrically connected in the accommodating groove 112a, and the display of the display panel 121 is realized. The circuit body 131 of the driving circuit 13 is arranged in the body part 111 and located above the plane of the bottom edge of the window 10a. After the rainwater enters the body part 111 through the window 10a, the risk of the contact between the rainwater and the circuit body 131 is reduced. In this way, the risk of the contact between the rainwater and the circuit body 131 to cause the corrosion or short circuit of the circuit body 131 is reduced, and the display reliability of the display panel 121 of the vehicle window assembly 10 is improved.
[0044] In some embodiments, the circuit body 131 includes a circuit board, and the circuit board is electrically connected with the second electric connection end 132.
[0045] The circuit board can be flexible or non-flexible, can be integrated with a circuit, and can be electrically connected with a power supply and the display panel 121 through the second electrical connection end 132 and the first electrical connection end 1211 to drive the display panel 121 to display a picture.
[0046] The circuit board is arranged in the body portion 111, which can shorten the distance between the circuit board and the display panel 121, and is conducive to simplifying the structure and production process of the connection line between the display panel 121 and the circuit board while reducing the risk of corrosion or short circuit of the circuit board caused by water immersion.
[0047] As shown in FIG. 1, Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the window frame 112 includes a top frame 1121 arranged at the top of the window 10a and side frames 1122 connected to both sides of the top frame 1121. The first electrical connection end 1211 is arranged on one side of the window glass 12 close to the top frame 1121, and the second electrical connection end 132 is arranged on the top frame 1121.
[0048] In this way, the second electrical connection end 132 is arranged at the top of the window 10a, and the first electrical connection end 1211 can be in contact with the second electrical connection end 132 in the closed state of the window glass 12. The display panel 121 displays a picture only in the closed state of the window glass 12, and does not display a picture when the window glass 12 is partially or fully opened, so as to ensure the field of view of the passengers inside the vehicle 1.
[0049] Rainwater usually falls downward, and the second electrical connection end 132 is arranged on the top frame 1121, which is conducive to reducing the risk of water immersion of the second electrical connection end 132 in rainy weather, so as to reduce the risk of corrosion or short circuit of the second electrical connection end 132 caused by contact with rainwater.
[0050] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the window assembly 10 further includes a shielding member 14 rotatably connected with the top frame 1121. When the window glass 12 is not in the closed state, the shielding member 14 covers at least part of the opening of the receiving groove 112a of the top frame 1121 toward the window 10a. In the closed state, the shielding member 14 is attached to the inner wall of the receiving groove 112a, so that the window glass 12 cooperates with the receiving groove 112a.
[0051] When the vehicle window glass 12 is not in the closed state, the vehicle window glass 12 can be in the opened state, or the vehicle window glass 12 can be in other states partially opened, at this time, the vehicle window glass 12 is disengaged from the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121, and the shielding piece 14 can cover at least part of the opening of the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121 on the side facing the window 10a.
[0052] When the shielding piece 14 is rotatably connected with the top frame 1121, the shielding piece 14 can rotate relative to the top frame 1121, the rotation of the shielding piece 14 can be driven by the driving piece, or the shielding piece 14 can be provided with a certain elasticity, and the shielding piece 14 is pushed to rotate by the vehicle window glass 12, and then is accommodated in the accommodating groove 112a, and after the vehicle window glass 12 is disengaged from the accommodating groove 112a, the shielding piece 14 rebounds under the action of its own elastic force and covers at least part of the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121.
[0053] When the vehicle window glass 12 is in the closed state, the shielding piece 14 is attached to the inner wall of the accommodating groove 112a, so that the vehicle window glass 12 is engaged with the accommodating groove 112a, the first electrical connection end 1211 can be in contact with and electrically connected with the second electrical connection end 132 to realize the display of the display panel 121.
[0054] Optionally, when the vehicle window glass 12 is not in the closed state, the shielding piece 14 can be arranged to cover all of the accommodating grooves 112a of the top frame 1121, or the shielding piece 14 can be arranged to cover part of the accommodating grooves 112a of the top frame 1121. For example, the shielding piece 14 can be arranged to cover the accommodating grooves 112a of the top frame 1121 provided with the second electrical connection end 132.
[0055] The vehicle window assembly 10 is provided with the shielding piece 14, when the vehicle window glass 12 is not in the closed state, the shielding piece 14 covers at least part of the opening of the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121 on the side facing the window 10a, which is beneficial to reduce the possibility of rain and the like entering the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121, and thus is beneficial to reduce the risk of rain and the like contacting the second electrical connection end 132 in the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121 to cause short circuit or corrosion of the second electrical connection end 132, and further beneficial to improve the display reliability of the display panel 121.
[0056] In some embodiments, the shielding piece 14 includes an elastic piece, in the opened state, the elastic piece covers at least part of the opening of the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121 on the side facing the window 10a; in the closed state, the elastic piece is attached to the inner wall of the accommodating groove 112a.
[0057] When the elastic member is in a natural state, the shielding member 14 covers at least part of the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121, and during the process of closing the window glass 12, the elastic member rotates into the accommodating groove 112a under the lifting of the window glass 12, and finally adheres to the inner wall of the accommodating groove 112a. After the window glass 12 is disengaged from the accommodating groove 112a, the elastic member rebounds under the action of its own elastic potential energy, so that the shielding member 14 covers the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121.
[0058] Optionally, the elastic member can be in a sheet shape, a wire shape, etc.
[0059] The shielding member 14 including the elastic member facilitates the switching of the shielding member 14 between the state of covering the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121 and the state of adhering to the inner wall of the accommodating groove 112a, without the need to set a driving mechanism, which is conducive to simplifying the structure of the window assembly 10.
[0060] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 7 In some embodiments, the window frame 112 includes a top frame 1121 and a side frame 1122, the top frame 1121 is arranged at the top of the window 10a, and the side frame 1122 is connected to both sides of the top frame 1121; the first electric connection end 1211 is arranged on one side of the window glass 12 close to the side frame 1122, and the second electric connection end 132 is arranged on the side frame 1122 close to the first electric connection end 1211.
[0061] The second electric connection end 132 is arranged on one side of the window glass 12 close to the side frame 1122, and the second electric connection end 132 is arranged on the side frame 1122 close to the first electric connection end 1211. Optionally, the second electric connection end 132 and the first electric connection end 1211 can be electrically connected only when the window glass 12 is in a closed state, so that the display panel 121 can display a picture when the window glass 12 is in a closed state.
[0062] Alternatively, the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 can be in a strip shape, and by arranging the second electric connection end 132 at a suitable position in the accommodating groove 112a of the top frame 1121, the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 can be electrically connected when the window glass 12 is in a partially opened state, i.e., when the window glass 12 is lifted by a part. In this way, the display panel 121 can display a picture when the window glass 12 is not in a closed state, and the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132 are always in a connected state during the process of continuously lifting the window glass 12, so that the display panel 121 can display a picture during the process of lifting the window glass 12 to a certain height and then to a closed state.
[0063] Therefore, the second electrical connection end 132 is arranged at the side frame 1122, and the timing of the second electrical connection end 132 contacting and electrically connecting with the first electrical connection end 1211 can be controlled as needed, so that the display panel 121 can display a picture at a certain timing before the vehicle window glass 12 is raised to the closed state. The first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 contact at the side of the window 10a, which is conducive to improving the reliability of the electrical connection between the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132, reducing the risk of electrical connection failure caused by poor contact between the two, and further improving the reliability of the display panel 121.
[0064] Please continue to refer to Figure 7 In some embodiments, the vehicle window glass 12 moves in the first direction X from the open state to the closed state, the first electrical connection end 1211 is in the shape of a long strip and extends in the first direction X by a first preset distance, and the second electrical connection end 132 is in the shape of a long strip and extends in the first direction X by a second preset distance. During the process of the vehicle window glass 12 from the open state to the closed state, the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 can contact and slide relative to each other.
[0065] In this way, during the process of the vehicle window glass 12 rising in the first direction X from the open state, the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 move relative to each other. When the vehicle window glass 12 rises to a certain height or when the vehicle window glass 12 starts to rise, the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 contact and electrically connect, and then the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 slide relative to each other while maintaining the electrically connected state until the vehicle window glass 12 reaches the closed state. The first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 maintain the contact state, and the display panel 121 displays a picture.
[0066] Therefore, by arranging the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 in the shape of a long strip and extending in the first direction X, the electrical connection between the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 can be achieved when the vehicle window glass 12 rises to a certain height in the first direction X. As the vehicle window glass 12 continues to rise, the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 always maintain the electrically connected state. By adjusting the distance of the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 extending in the first direction X and the relative position of the two, the electrical connection between the first electrical connection end 1211 and the second electrical connection end 132 at any timing between the open state and the closed state of the vehicle window glass 12 can be achieved, so that the display panel 121 can start to display a picture when the vehicle window glass 12 rises to a certain degree.
[0067] Understandably, when the display panel 121 displays an image during the process of the car window 12 changing from an open state to a closed state, it can be set to display an image on the entire display panel 121, or it can be set to display an image only on the portion of the display panel 121 within the window 10a, while the portion outside the window 10a does not display an image, in order to save energy. The specific choice can be made according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions here.
[0068] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the end of the second electrical connection terminal 132 is flush with or extends beyond the end of the side frame 1122. The display panel 121 includes a plurality of sub-pixels 1212. The first electrical connection terminal 1211 includes a plurality of conductive terminals 1213. The conductive terminals 1213 are electrically connected to at least one sub-pixel 1212. The orthographic projection of the sub-pixel 1212 along the first direction X on the side frame 1122 is located on the conductive terminal 1213 connected to it, or located on the side of the conductive terminal 1213 connected to it away from the top frame 1121.
[0069] If the end of the second electrical connection terminal 132 is flush with or extends beyond the end of the side frame 1122, then the second preset distance of the second electrical connection terminal 132 is greater than or equal to the size of the side frame 1122, and the end of the second electrical connection terminal 132 along the first direction X is flush with or at least partially extends beyond the side frame 1122.
[0070] The display panel 121 includes multiple sub-pixels 1212, and the first electrical connection terminal 1211 includes multiple conductive terminals 1213. The conductive terminals 1213 are insulated from each other, so the multiple sub-pixels 1212 are divided into different areas by the conductive terminals 1213. Only when the corresponding conductive terminal 1213 is electrically connected to the second electrical connection terminal 132 can the sub-pixel 1212 that is electrically connected to the corresponding conductive terminal 1213 display the image.
[0071] When the orthographic projection of sub-pixel 1212 along the first direction X onto the side frame 1122 is located on the conductive terminal 1213 connected to it, and the conductive terminal 1213 is connected to the second electrical connection terminal 132, the sub-pixel 1212 is already located within the window 10a, meaning that the image starts to be displayed when the sub-pixel 1212 rises into the window 10a. Conversely, when the orthographic projection of sub-pixel 1212 along the first direction X onto the side of the side frame 1122 where the conductive terminal 1213 is located away from the top frame 1121, the corresponding sub-pixel 1212 displays an image even before it is located within the opening. This arrangement is to allow one conductive terminal 1213 to control multiple sub-pixels 1212, which simplifies the internal circuitry of the display panel 121.
[0072] Thus, during the process of the window glass 12 rising, the conductive terminal 1213 of the first electric connection end 1211 can always be electrically connected with the second electric connection end 132 in the accommodating groove 112a of the side frame 1122, and at least part of the portion located in the accommodating groove 112a cannot be electrically connected with the second electric connection end 132, so that the display panel 121 cannot display the picture. Therefore, during the process of the window glass 12 rising, the conductive terminal 1213 connected with the sub-pixel 1212 of the portion of the display panel 121 located in the window 10a is always in the connected state with the second electric connection end 132, and the conductive terminal 1213 connected with the sub-pixel 1212 of the portion of the display panel 121 not located in the window 10a is at least partially not connected with the second electric connection end 132, so that during the process of the window glass 12 rising, the sub-pixel 1212 of the display panel 121 located in the window 10a can always display the picture, and at least part of the sub-pixel 1212 of the display panel 121 not located in the window 10a cannot be electrically connected with the second electric connection end 132, so that the picture cannot be displayed, which has the effect of saving the electric energy.
[0073] It can be understood that, in the case that the end of the second electric connection end 132 is flush with the end of the side frame 1122, and the normal projection of the sub-pixel 1212 along the first direction X on the side frame 1122 is located on the conductive terminal 1213, during the process of the window glass 12 rising, the portion of the display panel 121 located in the window 10a can always display the picture, and the portion of the display panel 121 not yet rising into the window 10a cannot display the picture.
[0074] Therefore, the end of the second electric connection end 132 is arranged to be flush with the end of the side frame 1122 or to protrude from the side frame 1122, and the normal projection of the sub-pixel 1212 of the display panel 121 along the first direction X on the side frame 1122 is arranged to be located on the conductive terminal 1213 connected therewith or to be located on the side of the conductive terminal 1213 connected therewith away from the top frame 1121, which is beneficial to realize that, during the process of the window glass 12 having the opening state to the closing state, the portion of the display panel 121 located in the window 10a can always display the picture, and the portion not rising into the window 10a can not display the picture, so as to save the unnecessary electric energy consumption of the display panel 121 on the premise of realizing the window display.
[0075] In some embodiments, the display panel 121 includes a plurality of sub-pixels 1212, and the circuit body 131 includes a control component electrically connected with the sub-pixels 1212, and the control component is configured to be able to control at least part of the sub-pixels 1212 located in the body portion 111 to be powered off in the connected state of the first electric connection end 1211 and the second electric connection end 132.
[0076] In this way, during the process of the vehicle window glass 12 being lifted from the open state to the closed state, the sub-pixels 1212 located in the body part 111 are powered off by the control part, while the sub-pixels 1212 located in the window 10a are normally displayed, so that the sub-pixels 1212 located in the body part 111 which cannot be observed are powered off on the premise of realizing the display function of the vehicle window glass 12, thereby facilitating reduction of the energy consumption of the vehicle window glass 12.
[0077] As shown in Figure 7 In some embodiments, the body part 111 includes a B-pillar 1111, and the circuit body 131 is arranged in the B-pillar 1111.
[0078] The B-pillar 1111 of the vehicle 1 has high structural strength and load bearing capacity, so that the B-pillar 1111 can provide better protection for the circuit body 131 in the case that the vehicle window assembly 10 is subjected to impact, vibration and other loads, thereby facilitating improvement of the structural integrity of the circuit body 131, reduction of the risk of disconnection of the circuit body 131 due to vibration, impact and other loads, and further improvement of the reliability of the display panel 121.
[0079] In some embodiments, the body part 111 includes a roof frame, and the circuit body 131 is arranged in the roof frame.
[0080] Arrangement of the circuit body 131 in the roof frame is beneficial to further reduce the risk of short circuit or corrosion of the circuit body 131 due to wading in rainy weather, and further improve the reliability of the display panel 121.
[0081] As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the vehicle window glass 12 further includes a glass body 122, and the display panel 121 is attached to the glass body 122.
[0082] In this way, the display panel 121 can only have a display function, and the vehicle window glass 12 has certain load bearing capacity due to the rigidity of the glass body 122, and the specific structural strength of the glass body 122 can be set as needed, thereby facilitating improvement of the load bearing capacity of the vehicle window assembly 10.

[0084] The vehicle 1 in the embodiments of the present application includes but is not limited to a passenger car, a truck, a train, a subway and an engineering vehicle, and other devices having a vehicle window assembly 10.
[0085] The vehicle 1 provided by the embodiments of the present application has the same technical effects as the vehicle window assembly 10 provided by any of the above embodiments, and thus will not be described here again.
[0086] Although the present application has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made to the present application and equivalents thereof without departing from the scope of the present application. In particular, the technical features mentioned in each of the embodiments can be combined in any manner as long as there is no structural conflict.
