For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0031] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a dimming windshield glass assembly, which includes an outer layer of glass 1, an inner layer of glass 2, and a first film structure 3, a dimming film structure 4, and a second film structure 5 sequentially arranged from the outer layer of glass 1 to the inner layer of glass 2. Among them, the outer layer of glass 1 and the inner layer of glass 2 can be connected to the front windshield of the cab, and the dimming film structure 4 includes a dimming film component 41 and a third film structure 42 spliced ​​together. The dimming film component 41 is located on the top of the outer layer of glass 1 and can adjust the light transmittance of the dimming windshield glass assembly.

[0032] The present invention can utilize the dimming film component 41 to adjust the light transmittance of the windshield glass assembly, abandoning the method of using a sunshade to block sunlight from entering the cab in the prior art, while reducing wind resistance and adapting to the trend of low wind resistance; when the vehicle is traveling under strong sunlight, the dimming film component 41 is utilized to dim the top of the windshield glass assembly to effectively block the sunlight; when the vehicle is traveling under weak sunlight, the dimming film component 41 is utilized to brighten the top of the windshield glass assembly to improve the light transmittance and avoid causing a sense of oppression to the driver. The dimming windshield glass assembly of the present invention effectively solves the problem that the sunshade method of the windshield in the prior art increases the wind resistance and the light transmittance of the windshield cannot be adjusted.

[0033] In some embodiments, the thickness of the dimming film assembly 41 is 0.36mm-0.4mm, and the height of the dimming film assembly 41 is 190mm-210mm. The thickness of the dimming film assembly 41 is limited to the above-mentioned numerical range, while ensuring the explosion-proof performance, taking into account the transmittance and fit, and avoiding the situation of stratification or blurred vision caused by excessive thickness. The thickness of the dimming film assembly 41 can be selected according to the actual situation. Specifically, the thickness of the dimming film assembly 41 can be selected as 0.36mm, 0.38mm or 0.4mm, etc. In this solution, the thickness of the dimming film assembly 41 is 0.38mm. Similarly, the height of the dimming film assembly 41 can be selected according to the specific situation of the vehicle. Specifically, the height of the dimming film assembly 41 can be selected as 190mm, 200mm or 210mm, etc. In this solution, the thickness of the dimming film assembly 41 is 200mm. Among them, the height of the dimming film assembly 41 refers to the distance between the bottom of the dimming film assembly 41 and the top of the outer glass 1.

[0034] Specifically, the dimming film assembly 41 includes but is not limited to a PDLC film, wherein the PDLC film can be used to adjust the light transmittance of the dimming front windshield glass assembly by controlling the voltage. The PDLC film can control the haze value of the PDLC film by controlling the voltage. Specifically, the voltage of 0-36V corresponds to a haze value of 95%-5%, and the higher the haze value, the lower the light transmittance.

[0035] It should be noted that PDLC film is a polymer dispersed liquid crystal film, which is an intelligent optoelectronic material composed of a high molecular polymer and liquid crystal droplets. It controls the arrangement state of liquid crystal molecules through an electric field to achieve transmittance switching.

[0036] In this embodiment, the dimming front windshield glass assembly has a dimming sunshade area 61 and a transparent viewing area 62 distributed from top to bottom. The dimming film assembly 41 is located in the dimming sunshade area 61, and the third film structure 42 is located in the transparent viewing area 62. In this way, the dimming film assembly 41 can adjust the light transmittance of the dimming sunshade area 61 to meet the driver's use requirements. At the same time, the third film structure 42 is arranged in the transparent viewing area 62 to ensure the driver's normal driving.

[0037] Specifically, the third film structure 42 includes but is not limited to a PVB film. The PVB film is used to bond two layers of glass under high temperature and high pressure. When impacted, it can adhere to glass fragments to prevent splashing and injuring people. The light transmittance of the PVB film is as high as 90% or more, ensuring a clear driving field of vision. Special coatings or materials can be added to achieve anti-glare, anti-ultraviolet (blocking rate ≥ 99%) and other functions. It is also highly weather-resistant and can adapt to extreme temperatures (-50°C to 100°C).

[0038] In this embodiment, the thickness of the third film structure 42 is 0.36 mm-0.4 mm. The thickness of the third film structure 42 is limited to the above numerical range, while ensuring the explosion-proof performance, taking into account the transmittance and weather resistance. The thickness of the third film structure 42 can be selected according to actual conditions. Specifically, the thickness of the third film structure 42 can be selected to be 0.36 mm, 0.38 mm or 0.4 mm, etc. In this solution, the thickness of the third film structure 42 is 0.38 mm.

[0039] Specifically, the first film structure 3 includes but is not limited to a PVB film. The properties and functions of the first film structure 3 and the third film structure 42 are the same, which will not be repeated here. The thickness of the first film structure 3 is 0.36mm-0.4mm. The thickness of the first film structure 3 is limited to the above numerical range, while ensuring the explosion-proof performance, taking into account the transmittance and weather resistance. The thickness of the first film structure 3 can be selected according to the actual situation. Specifically, the thickness of the first film structure 3 can be selected as 0.36mm, 0.38mm or 0.4mm, etc. In this solution, the thickness of the first film structure 3 is 0.38mm.

[0040] In some embodiments, the second film structure 5 includes but is not limited to a soundproof and heat-insulating PVB film, wherein the soundproof and heat-insulating PVB film can effectively improve the noise reduction effect and infrared blocking rate. At the same time, the sound insulation effect of the windshield glass assembly is improved by 2Db, and the total solar energy transmittance is reduced by 25%, which plays the role of sound insulation, UV isolation, and rear surround of the windshield assembly. Specifically, the thickness of the second film structure 5 is 0.74mm-0.78mm. Limiting the thickness of the second film structure 5 within the above numerical range can effectively improve the noise reduction effect, wherein the thickness of the second film structure 5 can be selected according to actual conditions. Specifically, the thickness of the second film structure 5 can be selected as 0.74mm, 0.76mm or 0.78mm, etc. In this solution, the thickness of the second film structure 5 is 0.76mm.

[0041] Specifically, the dimming windshield glass assembly further includes a silver-plated film structure 7. The silver-plated film structure 7 is disposed between the outer glass 1 and the first film structure 3, and the dimming windshield glass assembly can be defrosted by using the silver-plated film structure 7.

[0042] In some embodiments, the silver-plated film structure 7 includes a silver-plated film body 71 and a heating terminal 72 connected to the bottom of the silver-plated film body 71. The silver-plated film body 71 is arranged between the outer glass 1 and the first film structure 3, and can be connected to the vehicle power supply through the heating terminal 72. The thickness of the silver-plated film body 71 is between 100-300nm, and the heating terminal 72 is welded on the silver-plated film body 71 on both sides of the dimming front windshield glass assembly to connect to the vehicle power supply, and the power reaches 500W / m 2 , which has the effect of quickly defrosting the front windshield in winter. More than 80% of the front windshield can be defrosted within 15 minutes. The silver-plated film body 71 is arranged on the inner side of the outer glass 1, and the second film structure 5 can prevent heat from spreading into the cab, thereby increasing the defrosting efficiency on the outer glass 1.

[0043] Specifically, in this solution, the thickness of the outer glass 1 and the inner glass 2 is 2mm-4mm. The thickness of the outer glass 1 and the inner glass 2 can be selected according to actual needs; in this embodiment, the thickness of the outer glass 1 and the inner glass 2 can be selected to be 3mm.

[0044] This embodiment also provides a vehicle, including the dimming windshield glass assembly in the above scheme. The present invention can use the dimming film component 41 to adjust the light transmittance of the windshield glass assembly, abandoning the method of using a sunshade to block sunlight from entering the cab in the prior art, while reducing wind resistance and adapting to the trend of low wind resistance; when the vehicle is driving under strong sunlight, the dimming film component 41 is used to dim the top of the windshield glass assembly to effectively block the sunlight; when the vehicle is driving under weak sunlight, the dimming film component 41 is used to brighten the top of the windshield glass assembly to improve the light transmittance and avoid causing a sense of oppression to the driver. The vehicle using the present invention effectively solves the problem that the sunshade method of the windshield in the prior art increases the wind resistance and the light transmittance of the windshield cannot be adjusted.

[0045] The dimming windshield glass assembly provided by the present invention has the following advantages: it solves the problem that the wind resistance of the windshield sunshade of the vehicle is high and the light transmittance cannot be adjusted, which affects the light entering the vehicle. At the same time, it adopts the sound insulation and heat insulation PVB film and silver-plated film structure to realize the multifunctional windshield with integrated local dimming, sound insulation, heat insulation and electric heating functions.

[0046] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
