DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0050] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clear, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0051] The terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure are only used to explain the embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.
[0052] In order to improve the safety of vehicle driving, radar and camera are usually installed at the rear of the vehicle. The camera transmits the acquired images to the vehicle's central control screen, and the driver can observe whether there are obstacles behind the vehicle through the central control screen.
[0053] However, the camera installed at the rear of the vehicle can only observe the image directly behind the vehicle through the central control screen, and the field of view is small, which poses a safety hazard during driving. Some high-end models are equipped with a 360° panoramic imaging function, but it will lead to a higher vehicle cost.
[0054] In view of the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides an exterior rearview mirror, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the exterior rearview mirror 400 includes a rearview mirror body 1, a bracket 2, a camera 3 and a driving circuit board 4. The bracket 2 is fixed to the outside of the vehicle, and the rearview mirror body 1 is connected to the bracket 2. The bracket 2 has a receiving cavity 2a, and the driving circuit board 4 and the camera 3 are fixed to the receiving cavity 2a. The side wall of the bracket 2 has a through hole 20, and the through hole 20 faces the rear of the vehicle, and the through hole 20 is opposite to the camera 3. Figure 5 As shown, the driving circuit board 4 is electrically connected to the camera 3 and the vehicle's electronic control unit 100. The camera 3 is also electrically connected to the vehicle's central control screen 200. The electronic control unit 100 controls the camera 3 to turn on or off through the driving circuit board 4, and controls the camera 3 to transmit the captured image to the central control screen 200.
[0055] The electronic control unit (ECU) 100 may also be referred to as a driving computer or an on-board computer.
[0056] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the exterior rearview mirror 400 also includes a transmission line 7, and the driving circuit board 4 is electrically connected to the electronic control unit 100 and the vehicle battery through the transmission line 7. Thus, the driving circuit board 4 can receive the transmission signal sent by the electronic control unit 100 and can draw power from the vehicle battery, thereby ensuring that the camera 3 can smoothly capture images.
[0057] The rearview mirror body 1 is rotatably connected to the bracket 2, and the rearview mirror body 1 has a storage state and an unfolded state. In the storage state, the rearview mirror body 1 rotates in a direction close to the vehicle body, and the mirror surface of the rearview mirror body 1 faces the vehicle body. In the unfolded state, the rearview mirror body 1 rotates in a direction away from the vehicle body, and the mirror surface of the rearview mirror body 1 faces the rear of the vehicle. When the vehicle is in a parking state, the rearview mirror body 1 is in a storage state. When the vehicle is in a driving state, the rearview mirror body 1 is in an unfolded state. The drive circuit board 4 and the camera 3 are fixed to the bracket 2, and when the rearview mirror body 1 is stored or unfolded, the drive circuit board 4 and the camera 3 will not rotate accordingly. In this way, even if the rearview mirror body 1 fails and cannot be unfolded, the driver can still observe the situation on both sides and the rear of the vehicle through the camera 3. In addition, the transmission line 7 will not move as the rearview mirror body 1 is stored or unfolded, thereby reducing the risk of the transmission line 7 loosening or falling off.
[0058] When a rear camera is installed at the rear of the vehicle, the central control screen 200 can also display the image directly behind the vehicle. Figure 6 As shown, the image in the middle area of the central control screen 200 is the rear display image, and the images in the two side areas are the left side display image and the right side display image of the vehicle respectively.
[0059] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the camera 3 is fixed to the exterior rearview mirror, and the exterior rearview mirror 400 is located on both sides of the vehicle, after the driving circuit board 4 turns on the camera 3, the camera 3 can collect images on both sides of the vehicle and transmit the images to the vehicle's central control screen 200. In this way, the driver can observe the images on both sides of the vehicle through the central control screen 200, which improves the field of vision and thus improves the safety of the driving process.
[0060] Furthermore, since the camera 3 is fixed to the bracket 2 , the camera 3 will not affect the driver's observation of the situations on both sides and the rear of the vehicle through the rearview mirror body 1 .
[0061] In addition, compared with 360° panoramic imaging, the cost of installing the camera 3 and the driving circuit board 4 in the bracket 2 is lower, so that the overall cost of the vehicle is lower.
[0062] When the vehicle is reversing, it is necessary to always observe the situation behind the vehicle to avoid collision between the vehicle and obstacles. Therefore, the camera 3 needs to be turned on when the vehicle is reversing.
[0063] In order to ensure that the camera 3 can be turned on when the vehicle is reversing, in some examples, such as Figure 5 As shown, the driving circuit board 4 is electrically connected to the transmission 300 of the vehicle through the electronic control unit 100. When the transmission 300 is in reverse gear, the electronic control unit 100 controls the driving circuit board 4 to turn on the camera 3. When the transmission 300 is out of reverse gear, the electronic control unit 100 controls the driving circuit board 4 to turn off the camera 3. In this way, the driver can observe a wider range of the sides and rear of the vehicle through the central control screen 200, thereby improving safety when reversing.
[0064] Alternatively, in other examples, the electronic control unit 100 may also receive instructions from the user. For example, when the vehicle is in a parking state or a forward state, if the user wants to observe the images on both sides of the vehicle, the electronic control unit 100 may also control the driving circuit board 4 to turn on the camera 3. Accordingly, a button may be set in the cabin, and the button is connected to the electronic control unit 100. The user clicks the button to observe the images on both sides of the vehicle through the central control screen 200.
[0065] For example, when the vehicle wants to change lanes to the two lanes, the electronic control unit 100 can control the driving circuit board 4 to turn on the camera 3 to observe whether there are oncoming vehicles from the side and rear of the vehicle, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle when changing lanes.
[0066] When the vehicle is in a dark environment, it is difficult for the camera 3 to capture a clear image. Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the exterior rearview mirror further includes a first fill light 5, which is fixed to the accommodating cavity 2a and is opposite to the through hole 20. The first fill light 5 is used to emit infrared light. The first fill light 5 is electrically connected to the driving circuit board 4, and the electronic control unit 100 controls the opening and closing of the first fill light 5 through the driving circuit board 4. When the camera 3 is turned on, the first fill light 5 is turned on to emit infrared light to the surrounding environment, and the objects in the surrounding environment then reflect the infrared light to the camera 3, so that the camera 3 can obtain a clear image.
[0067] Exemplarily, when the transmission 300 is in reverse gear, the electronic control unit 100 controls the driving circuit board 4 to turn on the first fill light 5 .
[0068] It should be noted that the first fill light 5 and the camera 3 can be turned on and off at the same time. Alternatively, the first fill light 5 can be turned on only when the light is dark. For example, a light sensor can be provided at the through hole 20 of the bracket 2, and the light sensor is electrically connected to the electronic control unit 100. When the light collected by the light sensor is less than the first threshold value, the electronic control unit 100 controls the driving circuit board 4 to turn on the first fill light 5.
[0069] When the first fill light 5 emits infrared light, it is easy to mix red light, that is, a red burst phenomenon occurs, so that the human eye can see red light. In order to reduce or eliminate the red burst phenomenon of the first fill light 5, in some examples, the exterior rearview mirror also includes a second fill light 6. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the second fill light 6 is fixed to the accommodating cavity 2a and is opposite to the through hole 20. The second fill light 6 is used to emit visible light. The second fill light 6 is electrically connected to the driving circuit board 4, and the electronic control unit 100 controls the second fill light 6 and the first fill light 5 to turn on at the same time through the driving circuit board 4.
[0070] When the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 are turned on at the same time, the red light mixed in the visible light and the infrared light will converge together. The visible light beam is strong, which will disperse the red light, making it difficult for the human eye to see the red light, thereby solving the red burst phenomenon caused by the first fill light 5.
[0071] In some examples, such as Figure 4As shown, the camera 3, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 are fixed to the driving circuit board 4. When assembling the exterior rearview mirror, the camera 3, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 can be first installed on the driving circuit board 4, and then the driving circuit board 4 can be fixed in the accommodating cavity 2a of the bracket 2. On the one hand, the space occupied by the camera 3, the driving circuit board 4, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 can be reduced. On the other hand, the complexity of assembling the exterior rearview mirror can be reduced.
[0072] Of course, in other examples, the camera 3, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 may not be fixed to the driving circuit board 4, but directly fixed to the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 2a of the bracket 2, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not make specific limitations on this.
[0073] The embodiment of the present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6. The number of the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 can be one or more.
[0074] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 are located on the same side of the camera 3. In this way, the distance between the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 can be made closer, which is conducive to the intersection of visible light and infrared light, and is conducive to solving the red burst phenomenon generated by the first fill light 5.
[0075] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 2 includes an upper shell 21 and a lower shell 22. The upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22 are fixed to the outside of the vehicle, the rearview mirror body 1 is connected to the upper shell 21, and the through hole 20 is located in the lower shell 22. The internal space of the upper shell 21 is small, so fixing the camera 3, the driving circuit board 4, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 in the lower shell 22 will not occupy additional space of the bracket 2, so that the volume of the bracket 2 is small.
[0076] In addition, the upper shell 21 and the rearview mirror body 1 are rotatably connected, which requires the rearview mirror body 1 to have a high structural strength. Therefore, setting the through hole 20 in the lower shell 22 will not affect the structural strength of the upper shell 21, thereby making the upper shell 21 and the rearview mirror body 1 more stable.
[0077] In some examples, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lower shell 22 has a through hole 20, and the camera 3, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 are all located on the inner side of the inner wall of the through hole 20, so as to prevent the inner wall of the through hole 20 from affecting the image captured by the camera 3 and the fill light effect of the first fill light 5.
[0078] Exemplarily, the side of the lower shell 22 facing the rear of the vehicle protrudes relative to the camera 3, the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6. In rainy and snowy weather, if rain and snow fall directly on the surface of the camera 3, the image acquired by the camera 3 will be partially blocked or unclear. The side wall of the lower shell 22 can play a role in preventing rain and snow, which is conducive to the camera 3 to collect clear images in rainy and snowy weather, so that the driver can observe the images on both sides and the rear of the vehicle in rainy and snowy weather.
[0079] In some examples, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lower shell 22 has a surrounding plate 221, which surrounds the through hole 20, extends in a direction toward the front of the vehicle, and abuts against the driving circuit board 4. In this way, foreign matter from the outside can be prevented from entering the accommodating cavity 2a of the bracket 2.
[0080] In some other examples, the lower shell 22 may also have three through holes 20 , and the camera 3 , the first fill light 5 , and the second fill light 6 are respectively opposite to the three through holes 20 .
[0081] In some examples, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the horizontal field of view angle of camera 3 is 12°-20°, and the vertical field of view angle is 65°-75°. Figure 7 and Figure 8 The range covered by the middle shadow is the image acquisition range of the camera 3. In this way, the camera 3 can obtain a larger image acquisition range, which is helpful for the driver to observe whether there are obstacles on both sides and rear of the vehicle.
[0082] Exemplarily, the horizontal field of view angle of camera 3 is 14°, and the vertical field of view angle is 70°.
[0083] It is understandable that, in order to improve the shooting quality of the camera 3, the horizontal field angles of the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 are greater than or equal to the horizontal field angle of the camera 3, and the vertical field angles of the first fill light 5 and the second fill light 6 are greater than or equal to the vertical field angle of the camera 3. In this way, the light within the shooting range of the camera 3 can be sufficient, so that the camera 3 can obtain a clearer image, so that the driver can observe the situation on both sides and the rear of the vehicle.
[0084] In some examples, such as Figure 8 As shown, the image acquisition range of camera 3 covers the area from the rear end of the front door to the rear of the roof. The maximum length of the coverage area is 10 meters and the width is 2.5 meters, which can completely cover the legal visible area of the exterior rearview mirror.
[0085] The present disclosure also provides a vehicle, such as Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the vehicle includes two exterior rearview mirrors 400 as described above.
[0086] The cameras 3 in the two exterior rearview mirrors 400 may be symmetrically distributed about the axis of symmetry of the vehicle, respectively capturing images of the left side and the right side of the vehicle.
[0087] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the camera 3 is provided in the exterior rearview mirror 400, after the driving circuit board 4 turns on the camera 3, the camera 3 can collect images on both sides of the vehicle and transmit the images to the central control screen 200 of the vehicle. In this way, the driver can observe the images on both sides of the vehicle through the central control screen 200, which improves the field of vision and thus improves the safety of the driving process.
[0088] In some examples, the vehicle further includes a rear camera, which is located at the rear of the vehicle and is used to capture images directly behind the vehicle. The rear camera and the camera 3 can simultaneously send the captured images to the vehicle's central control screen 200. The middle area of the central control screen 200 displays the images captured by the rear camera, and the two sides of the middle area respectively display the images captured by the cameras 3 of the two exterior rearview mirrors 400.
[0089] In other examples, the image captured by the camera 3 may also be displayed at other locations of the central control screen 200 .
[0090] In some examples, the rear camera and the camera 3 may work at the same time or not, which is not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. When the driver wants to observe the situation directly behind the vehicle, only the rear camera can be turned on. When the driver wants to check the situation behind the side of the vehicle, only the camera 3 of the rearview mirror 400 can be turned on.
[0091] The exterior rearview mirror 400 in the disclosed embodiment can be installed in a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), such as an extended-range vehicle, a plug-in vehicle, etc., and can also be used in a traditional fuel vehicle (Internal Combustion Engine, ICE).
[0092] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the type of vehicle, for example, a sedan, a bus, a truck, a sport utility vehicle (SUV), etc.
[0093] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the principles of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
