[0029] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0030] In order to overcome the shortcomings of traditional instrument panel display, central control screen display and head-up display (HUD), in the related technology, for example, display is performed in the shielded area of ​​the front windshield, especially in the bottom shielded area between the instrument panel of the vehicle and the light-transmitting area of ​​the front windshield, and the shielded area is used as the display background of the displayed image. The traditional shielded area is formed by printing black opaque ceramic ink, so displaying in the shielded area is also called black-bordered display. The content of the black-bordered display can be driving information such as vehicle speed, engine speed, fuel consumption, tire pressure, dynamic navigation, night vision, real-life map, warning information, entertainment information, and external smart device input information. Compared with the traditional head-up display (HUD), the black-bordered display can improve the contrast between the displayed image and the display background, so that the displayed content observed by the human eye is clear enough, and the energy consumption of the display element is reduced. Compared with the traditional instrument panel display and central control screen display, the black-bordered display can make the human eye's line of sight leave the road and turn the head less, which greatly improves driving safety.

[0031] Specifically, in the related art, display is performed through functional display modules including but not limited to screens, luminous bodies, etc., and the functional display modules are fixed to the inner surface of the glass by, for example, using PVB adhesive, so that various media information can be displayed to the occupants of the vehicle, and also serve as a decoration. However, there is not only an overflow defect between the functional display module and the glass, but also a step is formed, which is abrupt on the inner surface of the entire glass, unsightly, and easily damaged in the event of a collision.

[0032] Based on the above reasons, the present application provides a technical solution for a vehicle window and a vehicle, which can increase the display function of the product, improve the aesthetics of the product, and reduce collision damage.

[0033] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, Figure 1 shows a structural diagram of a vehicle window according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 shows a cross-sectional structural diagram of the structure shown in Figure 1 at AA. A vehicle window provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a glass body 10, a functional display module 20 and a shielding member 40.

[0034] The glass body 10 has an inner surface facing the inner environment and an outer surface facing the outer environment.

[0035] The glass body 10 can be either a single glass plate or a laminated glass formed by combining multiple glass plates. In this embodiment, the glass body 10 is specifically taken as a double-layer laminated glass. Optionally, the glass body 10 includes an inner glass plate 11, an adhesive layer 12, and an outer glass plate 13 that are stacked and connected in sequence. The inner glass plate 11 has a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 that are arranged opposite to each other, and the outer glass plate 13 has a third surface 131 and a fourth surface 132 that are arranged opposite to each other. The second surface 112 is arranged opposite to the third surface 131. The first surface 111 is also the inner surface of the glass body 10, and the fourth surface 132 is also the outer surface of the glass body 10.

[0036] In addition, the functional display module 20 is provided with a mounting surface facing the glass body 10 , the mounting surface is connected to the inner surface, the area of ​​the mounting surface 22 is smaller than the area of ​​the inner surface, and the functional display module 20 cooperates with the glass body 10 to form a step.

[0037] The display surface 21 refers to the side of the functional display module 20 facing the internal environment.

[0038] Optionally, the functional display module 20 is used to display driving parameters through its display surface 21, including vehicle speed, engine speed, fuel consumption, tire pressure, warning information, mileage, etc. It can also be used to display weather temperature, entertainment information, and can be used for dynamic navigation, night vision, real-life maps, and can be used for interior luminous accessories, etc.

[0039] In addition, the mounting surface 22 refers to the side of the function display module 20 facing away from the interior environment.

[0040] Optionally, the vehicle window further includes a first adhesive member 30 , which is connected between the mounting surface 22 and the inner surface so that the functional display module 20 is connected and fixed to the glass body 10 .

[0041] The shielding member 40 is covered on the step, and includes a first shielding portion 41 and a second shielding portion 42 connected to the first shielding portion 41. The first shielding portion 41 is arranged at the edge of the display surface 21 of the functional display module 20, and the second shielding portion 42 is arranged outside the functional display module 20 on the inner surface.

[0042] It should be noted that the internal environment refers to the interior environment of the vehicle; conversely, the external environment refers to the external environment of the vehicle.

[0043] In some embodiments, the material of the first adhesive 30 can be, for example, polyvinyl butyral (PVB), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), ionic polymer film (SGP), etc., which can achieve the connection and fixation between the mounting surface 22 of the functional display module 20 and the inner surface of the glass body 10.

[0044] The above-mentioned vehicle window, since the shielding member 40 is covered on the step, specifically, the shielding member 40 includes a first shielding portion 41 and a second shielding portion 42. The first shielding portion 41 is arranged at the edge of the display surface 21 of the functional display module 20, and the second shielding portion 42 is arranged on the outer area of ​​the functional display module 20 on the inner surface. In this way, the shielding member 40 plays a shielding role, not only shielding the hard step so that the overall appearance is not abrupt and the aesthetics is enhanced, but also playing a protective role to prevent collision damage or scratches, thereby improving the feasibility of industrial products; it can also shield the overflow defects of the functional display module 20 and the glass body 10 to prevent exposure and will not be observed by people in the car, and no trimming is required, thereby greatly improving the product performance of the vehicle window.

[0045] In some embodiments, the shielding member 40 includes but is not limited to a decorative strip.

[0046] In order to improve the shielding effect, the shielding member 40 is specifically set to a dark color, including but not limited to various colors such as high-gloss black, high-gloss gray, high-gloss blue, high-gloss purple, black, gray, dark gray, blue, dark blue, purple or dark purple. The color of the shielding member 40 is ≥4 according to the gray card grade of the Chinese standard gray card.

[0047] Of course, as some optional solutions, the shielding member 40 can also select the required color according to actual needs, and the gray card level of the color can be less than level 4. It can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0048] In some embodiments, the hardness of the shielding member 40 includes but is not limited to SHA (SHORE A) 60°-90°, specifically, for example, 60°, 65°, 70°, 75°, 80°, 85° or 90°, etc., which can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs. Among them, when the hardness of the shielding member 40 is less than 60°, the hardness is small, the material is soft and easy to collapse; when the hardness of the shielding member 40 is greater than 90°, the hardness is large, resulting in the risk of easy breakage when subjected to force, and when the flatness of the inner surface or the edge of the functional display module 20 is poor, the shielding member 40 cannot be tightly fitted on the inner surface or the edge of the functional display module 20 due to its large hardness, and there is a gap at the installation position, which is not beautiful, and the installation stability is low.

[0049] In some embodiments, the shielding member 40 is fixed on the inner surface and / or the edge of the functional display module 20 by various means including but not limited to bonding, welding or clamping, as long as it can be firmly connected to the inner surface and / or the edge of the functional display module 20.

[0050] In this embodiment, the shielding member 40 is connected and fixed to any one of the inner surface and the edge of the functional display module 20, and the other one is in abutment or clearance fit, which can improve the assembly efficiency of the shielding member 40 to a certain extent.

[0051] Of course, optionally, the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42 of the shielding member 40 are respectively connected and fixed to the inner surface and the edge of the functional display module 20 to improve the installation stability of the shielding member 40 and prevent it from getting loose.

[0052] Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 . In one embodiment, the vehicle window further includes a second adhesive member 50. The second shielding portion 42 is connected to the inner surface through the second adhesive member 50, and the first shielding portion 41 abuts against or is gap-matched with the edge of the display surface 21 in a direction perpendicular to the display surface 21. In this way, the second adhesive member 50 is arranged on the inner surface and connects the second shielding portion 42 with the inner surface. Compared with the structure in which the second adhesive member 50 is arranged on the edge of the display surface 21 and connects the first shielding portion 41 with the functional display module 20, on the one hand, the height of the shielding member 40 on the inner surface can be reduced to a certain extent, so as to avoid the height of the shielding member 40 being too large and causing it to be more abrupt and thus unsightly; on the other hand, the area of ​​the inner surface is obviously larger than the edge area of ​​the display surface 21, and the second adhesive member 50 can be arranged larger, so as to improve the stability of the installation.

[0053] Among them, when the first shielding portion 41 abuts against the edge of the display surface 21 in a direction perpendicular to the display surface 21, compared with the clearance fit method, it is more conducive to the shielding member 40 being stably and seamlessly fixed on the glass body 10, preventing the shielding member 40 from falling off the glass body 10.

[0054] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, the second adhesive member 50 includes but is not limited to adhesive tape, PVB material, EVA material, TPU material or SGP material, etc., as long as the second shielding part 42 can be bonded and fixed to the inner surface. In this embodiment, the second adhesive member 50 is preferably an adhesive tape, specifically a double-sided adhesive tape, so that the shielding member 40 can be easily installed on the inner surface without glue overflow defects, and the flatness after installation and fixation is high.

[0055] In one embodiment, a first protrusion 411 is provided on a side of the first shielding portion 41 away from the second shielding portion 42, and is in contact with the display surface 21. In other words, a relief recess 412 is provided on a side of the first shielding portion 41 close to the second shielding portion 42, and the relief recess 412 cooperates with the display surface 21 to form a cavity without contacting the display surface 21. In this way, on the first shielding portion 41, only the first protrusion 411 contacts the display surface 21, and the contact area with the display surface 21 is small, and the force is concentrated on the position where the first protrusion 411 and the display surface 21 contact each other, so that the side of the first shielding portion 41 away from the second shielding portion 42 can be closely attached to the edge of the display surface 21, which can effectively avoid the interference with the functional display module 20 caused by the entire surface of the first shielding portion 41 contacting the display surface 21 when the first protrusion 411 is not provided, and the appearance surface is warped and wrinkled.

[0056] In some embodiments, the distance between the side of the second shielding portion 42 facing the inner surface and the inner surface is smaller than the distance between the side of the first shielding portion 41 facing the inner surface and the inner surface. Along the arrangement direction of the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42, the second shielding portion 42 abuts against the side wall of the functional display module 20, and the abutting position is shown by the arrow K in FIG. 2, thereby playing a role in rapid positioning during the assembly process, adapting to automated tooling installation, and facilitating improved assembly efficiency.

[0057] Of course, as some optional solutions, along the arrangement direction of the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42, the second shielding portion 42 and the side wall of the functional display module 20 do not need to abut, but for example, an assembly gap is provided. The assembly gap includes but is not limited to 1mm to 5mm, specifically 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, 4mm or 5mm, etc. In this way, it can be suitable for manual assembly.

[0058] In some specific embodiments, the first protruding portion 411 abuts against the display surface 21, and the avoiding recess 412 and the display surface 21 form a cavity. Along the arrangement direction of the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42, the second shielding portion 42 abuts against the side wall of the functional display module 20. Along the direction perpendicular to the inner surface, the second shielding portion 42 is fixedly connected to the inner surface by an adhesive tape. In this way, while the shielding member 40 is stably installed on the inner surface, the shielding member 40 can be prevented from warping, and the overall appearance surface is relatively flat and beautiful.

[0059] In some embodiments, the sides of the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42 facing away from the inner surface include, but are not limited to, a plane parallel to the inner surface, an inclined plane at an angle, or an irregular shape, which can be specifically set according to actual requirements. In this embodiment, for example, the sides of the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42 facing away from the inner surface are selected to be a plane parallel to the inner surface, and the product appearance surface is flat and beautiful.

[0060] In one embodiment, a second protruding portion 421 extending towards the inner surface is provided on the side of the second shielding portion 42 away from the first shielding portion 41. There is a gap between the second protruding portion 421 and the inner surface. In this way, the second protruding portion 421 not only plays a shielding role, but also enhances the waterproof and dustproof effect; in addition, when the first protruding portion 411 abuts against the display surface 21, since there is a gap between the second protruding portion 421 and the inner surface, compared with the structural form in which the second protruding portion 421 abuts against the inner surface, the second shielding portion 42 is stably adhered to the inner surface through the second bonding member 50 and is not easily loosened, thereby preventing the defect of insecure adhesion caused by over-positioning due to the first protruding portion 411 and the second protruding portion 421 respectively abutting against the display surface 21 and the inner surface at the same time.

[0061] In some embodiments, the size d of the gap between the second protruding portion 421 and the inner surface satisfies: 0 < d ≤ 1 mm, specifically, for example, 0.3 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, or 1 mm. In this way, when the value of d does not exceed 1 mm, the size d of the gap is small, which can play a good shielding role, has a good waterproof and dustproof effect, and can avoid the unbeautiful appearance when the size of the gap is too large.

[0062] Of course, as some alternative solutions, d can also be any value greater than 1 mm.

[0063] In some embodiments, the distance h between the side of the first shielding portion 41 away from the display surface 21 and the display surface 21 includes but is not limited to being set to 1mm≤h≤3mm, specifically, for example, 1mm, 2mm or 3mm. Thus, when the distance h is less than 1mm, due to the small distance h, it will not be possible to meet the processing accuracy requirements of the machine, so that the shielding member 40 cannot be processed; when the distance h is too large, that is, the thickness of the first shielding portion 41 in the direction perpendicular to the display surface 21 is too large, resulting in material waste and increased costs.

[0064] In addition, along the arrangement direction of the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42, the width W1 of the first shielding portion 41 includes but is not limited to being set to 1mm≤W1≤15mm, specifically, for example, 1mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 7mm, 10mm or 15mm. In addition, the width W2 of the second shielding portion 42 includes but is not limited to being set to 1mm≤W2≤20mm, specifically, for example, 1mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 7mm, 10mm, 15mm or 20mm. In this way, the size of the width W1 and the width W2 is set to be too small to affect the shielding effect and cause easy loosening defects, and is also set to be too large to cause material waste.

[0065] Of course, as some optional solutions, h can also be set to any value greater than 3 mm. In addition, W1 can also be set to any value greater than 15 mm, and W2 can also be set to any value greater than 20 mm, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0066] In some embodiments, along the arrangement direction of the first shielding portion 41 and the second shielding portion 42, the width W1 of the first shielding portion 41 and the width W2 of the second shielding portion 42 satisfy the relationship: 0.2<W1 / W2<1. Wherein, W1 / W2 is specifically, for example, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.8 or 0.9, etc. In this way, the width W1 is small, and the edge area occupied by the display surface 21 is relatively small, so that the display area of ​​the display surface 21 is larger, and the width W2 is large, so that the width of the second adhesive member 50 can be larger, which can help to achieve the shielding member 40 firmly bonded to the inner surface and not easy to loosen.

[0067] Of course, in some optional solutions, W1 / W2 can also be any value less than or equal to 0.2 and greater than or equal to 1, which can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs.

[0068] In one embodiment, the glass body 10 is provided with a light-transmitting area 101 and a shielding area 102 arranged outside the light-transmitting area 101. Specifically, the shielding area 102 is arranged circumferentially around the light-transmitting area 101. The visible light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 101 is greater than or equal to 70%, and is used in the visible area; the functional display module 20 is set to at least one and arranged in the shielding area 102, and the visible light transmittance of the shielding area 102 is less than or equal to 10%, which can be used as a display background for displaying images, so that the displayed images are not affected by the brightness of the external environment of the vehicle, and the display effect of the functional display module 20 is improved. Among them, the functional display module 20 is arranged in the shielding area 102 of the glass body 10, which means that along the direction perpendicular to the surface of the glass body 10, the projection of the functional display module 20 on the glass body 10 is located inside the shielding area 102. In addition, the vehicle windows include but are not limited to the front windshield, rear windshield, side windshield or sunroof glass. The vehicle window of the present application is taken as the front windshield for example, and the shielding area 102 is the opaque area of ​​the front windshield. Among them, the functional display module 20 can be an integrated structure, or it can be set to multiple, such as two, three or any other number and arranged separately from each other. For example, the functional display module 20 is set to multiple, and the multiple functional display modules 20 can be arranged in the bottom shielding area 1021 on the front windshield near the instrument panel, or they can be arranged separately in the bottom shielding area 1021 near the instrument panel, the side shielding area 1023 near the A-pillar, and the top shielding area 1022 near the rearview mirror inside the vehicle.

[0069] Of course, as some optional solutions, the functional display module 20 can also be arranged in the light-transmitting area 101. Compared with being arranged in the light-transmitting area 101, arranging the functional display module 20 in the shielding area 102 can make full use of the shielding area 102, and at the same time, the line of sight will not be blocked due to being arranged in the light-transmitting area 101, and thus the structural form arranged in the light-transmitting area 101 is not specifically expanded in this embodiment.

[0070] Among them, since the glue overflow defects and the steps formed on the side of the functional display module 20 close to the light-transmitting area 101 are easily observed, in this embodiment, the shielding member 40 is at least arranged on the side of the functional display module 20 close to the light-transmitting area 101, or is only arranged on the side of the functional display module 20 close to the light-transmitting area 101, thereby achieving a better shielding effect, making the product more beautiful and saving materials.

[0071] In another embodiment, the shielding member 40 is arranged around the circumference of the functional display module 20 .

[0072] Since the glue overflow defect and the step formed on the side of the functional display module 20 away from the light-transmitting area 101 are close to the edge, they are not easily observed by people in the car. Based on this, optionally, the side of the functional display module 20 away from the light-transmitting area 101 is not provided with a shielding member 40, and the rest of the functional display module 20 is provided with a shielding member 40. In this way, a better shielding effect is achieved, the product is more beautiful, and materials are relatively saved.

[0073] In some embodiments, the outer contour of the function display module 20 includes but is not limited to a rectangle, a circle, an ellipse, a triangle, a pentagon or other regular and irregular shapes. In this embodiment, a commonly set rectangle is used as an example for development.

[0074] When the outer contour of the functional display module 20 is set to a rectangle, in one example, as shown in Figure 1 or Figure 3, a shielding member 40 is arranged on the side of the functional display module 20 facing the light-transmitting area 101; in another example, as shown in Figure 4, the shielding member 40 is not arranged on the side of the functional display module 20 away from the light-transmitting area 101, and the other three sides of the functional display module 20 are all arranged with shielding members 40.

[0075] In one embodiment, the functional display module 20 may be a projection display component, specifically including a reflective element, which cooperates with an image light source located inside the vehicle to reflect the projection light of the image light source to form a display image to the human eye.

[0076] When there are multiple functional display modules 20, one image light source can be used, and one image light source can emit multiple projection lights to different functional display modules 20; or multiple image light sources can be used, and each image light source emits projection lights to the corresponding functional display module 20. In addition, the multiple display images can all be virtual images, or all be real images, or there can be both virtual images and real images.

[0077] In another embodiment, the functional display module 20 may also be a self-luminous display component, specifically including an image generating element, which directly emits the displayed image to the human eye after emitting light. The image generating element includes but is not limited to a light-emitting panel, a thin film transistor display (TFT), an organic light-emitting diode display (OLED), a liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS), a digital light processing display (DLP), a sub-millimeter light-emitting diode display (Mini LED), a micro light-emitting diode display (Micro LED), etc.

[0078] In yet another embodiment, the plurality of functional display modules 20 may further include both image generating elements and reflective elements, so that they may be self-luminous display or projection display in cooperation with an image light source.

[0079] Optionally, the proportion of P-polarized light in the projection light emitted by the image light source is 30% to 100%, so that it is suitable for the use of polarized sunglasses to meet the needs of more driving scenarios.

[0080] In a specific embodiment, the shielding area 102 includes a bottom shielding area 1021 located below the light-transmitting area 101, and the functional display module 20 is disposed in the bottom shielding area 1021. Optionally, the shielding area 102 also includes a top shielding area 1022 located above the light-transmitting area 101 and side shielding areas 1023 located on both sides of the light-transmitting area 101. The visible light transmittances of the bottom shielding area 1021, the top shielding area 1022, and the side shielding area 1023 are flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs, for example, all are less than or equal to 5%, more preferably less than or equal to 3%, and further preferably less than or equal to 1%.

[0081] In a specific embodiment, the glass body 10 further includes a first light blocking layer 14 disposed at a position and shape adapted to the bottom shielding area 1021. Specifically, the first light blocking layer 14 includes but is not limited to being located at the first surface 111, the second surface 112, the third surface 131, the fourth surface 132 or the inside of the adhesive layer 12, and can be flexibly adjusted and arranged according to actual needs. The first light blocking layer 14 is made of a material with low transmittance, so that the glass body 10 forms a bottom shielding area 1021.

[0082] The adhesive layer 12 is sandwiched between the second surface 112 and the third surface 131, and is used to bond the outer glass plate 13 and the inner glass plate 11 together to form a laminated glass structure; its material can be selected from polyvinyl butyral (PVB), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), ionomeric polymer film (SGP), etc. Of course, the adhesive layer 12 can also have other functions, such as providing at least one colored area as a shadow band to reduce the interference of sunlight to the human eye, or adding infrared absorbers to have sun protection or heat insulation functions, and can also include at least two layers, one of which has a higher plasticizer content to have a sound insulation function, or one of which is wedge-shaped to form a head-up display (HUD) function in the light-transmitting area 101, etc.

[0083] In one embodiment, the vehicle window further includes a second light blocking layer 60. The second light blocking layer 60 can be disposed on the mounting surface 22 or on the inner surface in a region corresponding to the functional display module 20. In this way, the second light blocking layer 60 at least partially overlaps with the first light blocking layer 14 in the thickness direction of the glass body 10, and can be used as a display background for displaying images, so that the displayed images are not affected by the brightness of the environment outside the vehicle, and the display effect of the functional display module 20 is further improved.

[0084] In one embodiment, the visible light transmittance of the first light blocking layer 14 is less than or equal to 5%, more preferably less than or equal to 3%, further preferably less than or equal to 1%, even less than or equal to 0.5%, or substantially 0%, i.e., it is not transparent to visible light. The first light blocking layer 14 is a dark-colored printed layer or a dark-colored polymer film. The material of the second light blocking layer 60 can also be a dark-colored printed layer or a dark-colored polymer film consistent with the first light blocking layer 14.

[0085] The dark printed layer may be black or brown ceramic ink or ultraviolet ink, and may be printed on the first surface 111 , the second surface 112 , the third surface 131 or the fourth surface 132 by screen printing, inkjet printing or other processes.

[0086] In addition, the dark polymer film can be a polymer film with body coloring, for example, a coloring component is added during the manufacturing process of the polymer film to obtain black or brown PVB, PET, PVC, etc.; or a polymer film with surface printed pigments, for example, black or brown pigments are printed on the surface of the polymer film, etc.

[0087] In another embodiment, the first light blocking layer 14 is a dimming film, which may be a polymer dispersed liquid crystal film (PDLC), a suspended particle film (SPD), an electrochromic film (EC), a liquid crystal film (LC), or the like.

[0088] In one embodiment, the minimum visible light transmittance of the dimming film is less than or equal to 5%, such as 3%, 2%, 1%, 0.5%, 0%. In addition, the maximum visible light transmittance of the dimming film is set as needed, such as 10%, 20%, 30%, 50%, 70%, 80%, etc.

[0089] For example, the visible light transmittance of the dimming film can be adjusted between 0% and 20%, between 0.5% and 50%, or between 0% and 70%.

[0090] It meets the requirements of visible light transmittance in multiple scenarios. For example, when black-border display is required, the dimming film is in an opaque state (visible light transmittance is less than or equal to 5%) to improve the contrast between the displayed image and the displayed background. When no display is performed, the dimming film is in a transparent state (visible light transmittance is greater than or equal to 70%) to achieve transparency in a larger area of ​​the glass body 1010.

[0091] The following specifically describes the example in which the function display module 20 includes a reflective element.

[0092] In one embodiment, the functional display module 20 includes a reflective element. The reflective element may be a single layer or a multi-layer structure.

[0093] In one embodiment, the material of the reflective element can be the same as that of the inner glass plate 11 , or can be different materials, and can be a single medium or a composite material.

[0094] It should be noted that the main reflection surface of the reflection element is used to reflect the projection light. The main reflection surface can be located inside the reflection element or on any surface of the reflection element, and can be specifically set according to actual conditions.

[0095] In one embodiment, the reflective element can be a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure. Specific examples include a single piece of physically tempered glass, a single piece of chemically tempered glass, laminated glass, polycarbonate (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), a transparent substrate or an opaque substrate deposited with a P-polarized light reflective coating, a multi-layer resin laminate, etc.

Specific examples include a 1 / 2 wave plate, a stack of a 1 / 2 wave plate and a circularly polarized reflective plate, a 1 / 4 wave plate, and a stack of a 1 / 4 wave plate and a circularly polarized reflective plate.

[0097] In one embodiment, the reflective element is a composite layer with a holographic film, so that non-mirror reflection is achieved and the light source has a more flexible incident angle setting.

[0098] In one embodiment, the first light blocking layer 14 may have an electric heating element on the side close to the interior of the vehicle, and the electric heating element includes but is not limited to metal wire, copper foil, printed silver paste, transparent conductive layer, etc., which is used to realize electric heating to defrost and defog the functional display module 20.

[0099] In one embodiment, a transparent conductive layer is provided on the fourth surface 132 of the outer glass plate 13.

The first shielding portion 41 is arranged at the edge of the display surface 21 of the functional display module 20, and the second shielding portion 42 is arranged on the outer area of ​​the functional display module 20 on the inner surface. In this way, the shielding member 40 plays a shielding role, not only shielding the hard step so that the overall appearance is not abrupt and the aesthetics is enhanced, but also playing a protective role to prevent collision damage or scratches, thereby improving the feasibility of industrial products; it can also shield the overflow defects between the functional display module 20 and the glass body 10 to prevent exposure and observation by people in the car, and no trimming is required, thereby greatly improving the product performance of the car window.
