[0022] In one embodiment, at least one glass layer is disposed on both sides of the light guide layer along the thickness direction of the light guide layer.
[0023] In this embodiment, glass layers are respectively provided on both sides of the light guide layer to protect the light guide layer, and the glass layer is bonded to the light guide layer to prevent other materials between the glass layer and the light guide layer from affecting the display effect of the pattern.

[0059] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 ,in, Figure 1 A partial cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of a glass assembly 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application is illustrated; Figure 2 The structure diagram of the glass assembly 100 provided in one embodiment of the present application when the light-emitting element 30 is not working is shown; Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the structure of the glass assembly 100 when the light-emitting element 30 provided in one embodiment of the present application is working is illustrated.
[0060] The glass assembly 100 of the present application includes a light guide layer 10 , a light emitting element 30 and at least one glass layer 20 . The light guide layer 10 is provided with a pattern 11 . The at least one glass layer 20 is stacked with the light guide layer 10 and at least partially adhered to the light guide layer 10 .
[0061] Specifically, in one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the glass assembly 100 includes two glass layers 20, namely a first glass layer 21 and a second glass layer 22, which are respectively located on opposite sides of the light guide layer 10 along the thickness direction, and the first glass layer 21 and the second glass layer 22 are bonded to the light guide layer 10. The light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can be emitted into the light guide layer 10, and after being reflected in the light guide layer 10, it is emitted outward through the first glass layer 21 and the second glass layer 22. The light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can be seen by observing the glass layer 20.
[0062] The light emitted by the light emitting element 30 of the glass assembly 100 of the present application passes through the light guide layer 10 and then passes through at least one glass layer 20 to be emitted outward.
[0063] Specifically, in one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the first glass layer 21 covers a portion of the surface of the light guide layer 10, and the light emitting element 30 is arranged on the outside of the first glass layer 21 along a direction perpendicular to the thickness of the light guide layer 10, and the light emitting element 30 is exposed to the portion of the surface of the first glass layer 21 toward the light guide layer 10, so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can directly enter the light guide layer 10 and be emitted outward through the glass layer 20.
[0064] In addition, please combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the light guide layer 10 is provided with a pattern 11, and the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 is partially blocked when passing through the pattern 11, and the unblocked light is emitted outward through the light guide layer 10 and the glass layer 20, so that the pattern 11 mapped by the light of the light emitting element can be seen by observing the glass layer 20.
[0065] It can be understood that when the light emitting element 30 is not working, Figure 2 As shown, only a small portion of the light from the outside that passes through the glass assembly 100 is shielded by the pattern 11, and the intensity of the light is not high, and the intensity difference between the shielded portion of light and the unshielded portion of light is not large, making it difficult to see the pattern 11 clearly when observing the glass layer 20. When the light emitting element 30 is working, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The light intensity emitted by the light emitting element is relatively high, and the intensity difference between the shielded part of the light and the unshielded part of the light is relatively large, so that the pattern 11 can be seen more clearly through the observation glass layer 20 .
[0066] The glass assembly 100 of the present application is provided with a light emitting member 30 and the light guide layer 10 is provided with a pattern 11. The light emitted by the light emitting member 30 can map the pattern 11 on the glass layer 20. The pattern 11 can be seen by observing the glass layer 20, thereby improving the decorativeness of the glass assembly 100. At the same time, the pattern 11 can also be arbitrarily set according to the pattern required by the user, so that the user can get a better experience.
[0067] The light emitting member 30 of the glass assembly 100 of the present application is exposed on the surface of the glass layer 20 toward the light guide layer 10, and the light emitted by the light emitting member 30 is directly injected into the light guide layer 10 without passing through other components, and the pattern 11 is mapped on the glass layer 20. It can be understood that when the light passes through other components, such as other transparent components such as glass, the intensity and direction of the light will change after passing through other components due to the different light transmittance and refractive index of the material. The changed light causes the light intensity and angle of the irradiated pattern 11 to change, which may make it impossible to clearly map the pattern 11 on the glass layer 20, affecting the decorativeness of the glass assembly 100. Directly injecting the light emitted by the light emitting member 30 into the light guide layer 10 can prevent the light from passing through other components to affect the intensity and direction of the light, thereby ensuring the visual effect of the glass assembly 100.
[0068] Compared with the existing single-shaped glass components, the patterns 11 of the glass component 100 of the present application are diverse. At the same time, the patterns 11 are not limited to patterns composed of lines. Figure 3 In addition to the pattern 11 shown, other patterns such as starry sky and flowers may be used to improve the decorativeness of the glass assembly 100 .
[0069] The pattern of the glass assembly 100 of the present application can also be replaced with vehicle parameters, such as speed, fuel level, and temperature inside the vehicle, etc. The vehicle parameters are displayed on the glass assembly 100 in real time to improve the driving or riding experience of the driver and passengers. The light emitting element 30 of the glass assembly 100 of the present application can also be used as the interior lighting of the vehicle compartment. The light emitted by the light emitting element 30 is emitted into the interior of the vehicle compartment through the light guide layer 10 and the glass layer 20 to meet the lighting needs of the driver and passengers.
[0070] It should be pointed out that the glass assembly 100 of the present application can be used not only in vehicles, but also in other devices or spaces that require light transmission or have a low degree of decoration, so as to improve their decorativeness and provide users with a better experience.
[0071] In one embodiment, the pattern 11 is disposed on a film, and the film is fixed on a glass plate to form the light guide layer 10 .
[0072] In another embodiment, the pattern 11 is disposed on a film, and the film is fixed between two glass plates to form the light guide layer 10 .
[0073] In a preferred embodiment, the pattern 11 is engraved on the surface of the glass plate to form the light guide layer 10 .
[0074] In this embodiment, the pattern 11 can be engraved on the surface of the glass plate by photolithography, etching, corrosion, etc.
[0075] It can be understood that the depth of the pattern 11 on the surface of the glass plate can be set according to the required clarity of the pattern 11 . The deeper the depth of the pattern 11 on the surface of the glass plate, the clearer the pattern 11 seen through the glass assembly 100 .
[0076] It should be noted that, for the above-mentioned embodiment in which the pattern 11 is disposed on a film and fixed to a glass plate and the embodiment in which the pattern 11 is engraved on a glass plate, the glass plate can be replaced by other light-transmitting materials.
[0077] In one embodiment, along the thickness direction of the light guide layer 10 , the light emitting element 30 is located at one side of the light guide layer 10 , and the light emitting element 30 faces the surface of the light guide layer 10 .
[0078] In one embodiment, the glass assembly 100 includes only one glass layer 20 , the glass layer 20 is bonded to one side of the light guide layer 10 , and the light emitting element 30 is located on the side of the light guide layer 10 away from the glass layer 20 , so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can also be directly emitted into the light guide layer 10 .
[0079] In one embodiment, along the thickness direction of the light guide layer 10 , the light emitting element 30 is located on one side of the light guide layer 10 , at least one glass layer 20 is provided on the side of the light guide layer 10 facing the light emitting element 30 , and the light emitting element 30 is exposed on the surface of the glass layer 20 facing the light guide layer 10 .
[0080] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the glass assembly 100 includes a first glass layer 21 and a second glass layer 22. The first glass layer 21 and the second glass layer 22 are respectively located on opposite sides of the light guide layer 10 along the thickness direction of the light guide layer 10. The first glass layer 21 shields part of the surface of the light guide layer 10, and the second glass layer completely shields the surface of the light guide layer 10. The light guide layer 10 faces one side of the first glass layer 21, and the light guide layer 10 faces the surface of the light guide layer 10 in a direction perpendicular to the thickness of the light guide layer 10. The light guide layer 10 is provided with a light emitting element 30, and the light guide layer 10 faces the surface of the light guide layer 10, so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can directly enter the light guide layer 10.
[0081] In one embodiment, the glass assembly 100 includes only one glass layer 20, the glass layer 20 is bonded to one side of the light guide layer 10, the light emitting component 30 is located on the side of the light guide layer 10 facing the glass layer 20, the light emitting component 30 is on the side of the light guide layer 10 facing the glass layer 20, and along a direction perpendicular to the thickness of the light guide layer 10, the light emitting component 30 is located on the outside of the glass layer 20, and the light emitting component 30 faces the surface of the light guide layer 10, so that the light emitted by the light emitting component 30 can also be directly emitted into the light guide layer 10.
[0082] In one embodiment, the glass assembly 100 includes at least one glass layer 20, and the glass layer 20 is provided with a hollow area, the hollow area exposes a portion of the surface of the light guide layer 10, and the light emitting element 30 is arranged toward the hollow area, so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can be directly emitted into the light guide layer 10.
[0083] In one embodiment, the light emitting element 30 is located on one side of the light guiding layer 10 in a direction perpendicular to the thickness of the light guiding layer 10, and the light emitting element 30 faces the side of the light guiding layer 10. The side of the light guiding layer 10 is not shielded, and the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can directly enter the light guiding layer 10.
[0084] In one embodiment, the projection of the light emitting element 30 on the light guide layer 10 is spaced from the pattern 11. By spacing the light emitting element 30 from the pattern 11, the light emitting element 30 will not cover the pattern 11, and the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 forms an angle with the pattern 11, so that the pattern 11 can be better mapped on the glass layer 20.
[0085] When the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 is directed perpendicularly toward the pattern 11, the mapping effect of the glass layer 20 will be affected, thereby reducing the user experience. In a preferred embodiment, the angle between the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 and the pattern 11 is greater than or less than ninety degrees.
[0086] In one embodiment, the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 may form a certain angle with the pattern 11, so that when the light emitting element 30 is not working, the pattern 11 is difficult to see through the glass layer 20 or is almost transparent, so as not to affect the user's field of vision.
[0087] In one embodiment, the light emitting element 30 is partially attached to the light guiding layer 10 , so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can directly enter the light guiding layer 10 , ensuring the clarity of the pattern 11 on the glass layer 20 .
[0088] In one embodiment, the light emitting element 30 includes a light guide, which is partially attached to the surface of the light guide layer 10, and the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 is emitted into the light guide layer 10 through the light guide. The light emitting element 30 is attached to the light guide layer 10 through the light guide, so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can be emitted into the light guide layer 10 through the light guide, thereby mapping the pattern 11 of the light guide layer 10 on the glass layer 20.
[0089] In another embodiment, the light guide has a focusing effect. The light guide gathers the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 and injects it into the light guide layer 10. The intensity of the gathered light is higher, and the propagation direction of the light can also be concentrated in a smaller range, so that it is easier to control the direction of the light injected into the light guide layer 10, thereby ensuring that the light can map the pattern 11 of the light guide layer 10 onto the glass layer 20.
[0090] In one embodiment, the light emitting element 30 is spaced apart from the light guiding layer 10 . The light emitting element 30 is spaced apart from the light guiding layer 10 , and no other components are disposed between the light emitting element 30 and the light guiding layer 10 , so that the light emitted by the light emitting element 30 can be directly incident into the light guiding layer 10 .
[0091] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the light-emitting component 30 can be arranged on the side of the light-guiding layer 10 facing the first glass layer 21. The light-emitting component 30 is fixedly connected to the light-guiding layer 10 and the light-emitting component 30 and the light-guiding layer 10 are spaced apart from each other. No other components are arranged between the light-emitting component 30 and the light-guiding layer 10, which can also ensure that the light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 is directly incident on the light-guiding layer 10.
[0092] In one embodiment, at least one glass layer 20 is disposed on both sides of the light guide layer 10 along the thickness direction of the light guide layer 10. The glass layer 20 is used to protect the light guide layer 10, and the glass layer 20 is bonded to the light guide layer 10 to prevent other substances between the glass layer 20 and the light guide layer 10 from affecting the display effect of the pattern 11.
[0093] In one embodiment, the glass layer 20 includes a first glass layer 21 and a second glass layer 22. Along the thickness direction of the light guide layer 10, the first glass layer 21 and the second glass layer 22 are respectively attached to both sides of the light guide layer 10. The two glass layers 20 are respectively disposed on both sides of the light guide layer 10 to protect the light guide layer 10. At the same time, the glass layer 20 is attached to the light guide layer 10, which can also prevent other substances between the glass layer 20 and the light guide layer 10 from affecting the display effect of the pattern 11.
[0094] In one embodiment, along the thickness direction of the light guide layer 10 , the light transmittances of the glass layers 20 on both sides of the light guide layer 10 are not equal.
[0095] In one embodiment, the light transmittance of the first glass layer 21 is greater than the light transmittance of the second glass layer 22. It can be understood that the higher the light transmittance of the first glass layer 21, the more light can be emitted outward through the light guide layer 10 and the first glass layer 21, so that the pattern 11 observed from the first glass layer 21 is clearer.
[0096] In one embodiment, the first glass layer 21 includes semi-tempered glass or fully-tempered glass. The first glass layer 21 made of semi-tempered glass or fully-tempered glass has good impact resistance, so as to improve the overall strength of the glass assembly 100.

[0098] In a preferred embodiment, the first glass layer 21 includes ultra-white glass with high light transmittance.
[0099] In a preferred embodiment, the thickness of the first glass layer 21 ranges from 2.1 mm to 3.5 mm. A thinner first glass layer 21 can reduce the loss of light passing through the first glass layer 21, ensuring that the pattern 11 is clearly visible.
[0100] In one embodiment, the glass assembly 100 is disposed on a vehicle compartment, and the first glass layer 21 may be disposed at a position facing the interior of the vehicle compartment, so that the driver and passengers inside the vehicle compartment can observe the pattern 11 more clearly.
[0101] In one embodiment, the strength of the second glass layer 22 is greater than that of the first glass layer 21 . The second glass layer 22 can protect the light guide layer 10 and the first glass layer 21 , thereby improving the overall strength of the glass assembly 100 .
[0102] In a preferred embodiment, the second glass layer 22 includes a material with high strength such as semi-tempered laminated glass or tempered glass. The second glass layer 22 made of fully tempered glass or semi-tempered laminated glass has good impact resistance, can protect the light guide layer 10 and improve the overall strength of the glass assembly 100.
[0103] In a preferred embodiment, the second glass layer 22 includes a semi-tempered laminated glass, and the semi-tempered laminated glass is fixedly connected by a semi-tempered outer layer of glass and a semi-tempered inner layer of glass through polyvinyl butyral.
[0104] In a preferred embodiment, the thickness of the second glass layer 22 is in the range of 3.5 mm to 6.0 mm. A thicker second glass layer 22 can ensure the strength of the second glass layer 22 and improve the overall strength of the glass assembly 100.
[0105] In one embodiment, the glass assembly 100 is disposed on a vehicle compartment, and the second glass layer 22 can be disposed at a position away from the vehicle compartment, thereby protecting the light guide layer 10 and the first glass layer 21. At the same time, the second glass layer 22 with higher strength can also prevent the glass assembly 100 from being broken by impact or foreign objects and entering the interior of the vehicle compartment, thereby protecting the drivers and passengers in the vehicle compartment.
[0106] In one embodiment, the light guiding layer 10 includes a superconducting polycarbonate film. The light guiding layer 10 using the superconducting polycarbonate film has a high light transmittance, which can reduce the influence of light intensity and direction during the process of light passing through the light guiding layer 10, thereby ensuring the visual effect of the pattern 11.

Since the transmittance and refractive index of the first adhesive layer 51 and the second adhesive layer 52 are different from the transmittance and refractive index of the light guide layer 10, the intensity and direction of the light will change when the light passes through the first adhesive layer 51 and the second adhesive layer 52, thereby affecting the visual effect of the pattern 11. The thin thickness of the first adhesive layer 51 and the second adhesive layer 52 can reduce the influence of the light passing through the first adhesive layer 51 and the second adhesive layer 52 on the intensity and direction of the light, thereby ensuring the visual effect of the pattern 11.
[0111] In one embodiment, the materials of the first adhesive layer 51 and the second adhesive layer 52 include vinyl acetate copolymer and / or polyvinyl butyral. The first adhesive layer 51 and the second adhesive layer 52 made of vinyl acetate copolymer and / or polyvinyl butyral have high strength and light transmittance, ensuring the connection between the light guide layer 10 and the glass layer 20 and reducing the influence of the light passing through the first adhesive layer 51 or the second adhesive layer 52 on the light intensity and direction.

The second light shielding member 42 is fixed to the surface of at least one glass layer 20 and exposes the pattern 11 of the light guide layer 10, so that light can reflect the pattern 11 of the light guide layer 10 through at least one glass layer 20 to the outside of the glass assembly 100, and shield the glass layer 20 outside the pattern 11 to prevent light leakage.
[0120] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the second light shielding member 42 is located on the surface of the first glass layer 21 away from the light guide layer 10, and shields the light emitting member 30 to prevent the light emitted by the light emitting member 30 from being directly emitted or directly emitted after being emitted after being emitted from the first glass layer 21, that is, to prevent light leakage.
