[0054] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments 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 intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0055] In the description of the present invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0056] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 34 The windshield cover 100 , the camera cover assembly 200 and the vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention are described in detail.

[0057] Reference Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the windshield cover 100 according to the embodiment of the present utility model includes a cover body 1 .

[0058] like Figure 4 As shown, the cover body 1 is provided with a first mounting structure 11, a second mounting structure 12 and a third mounting structure 13. The first mounting structure 11 can be used to mount a camera, the second mounting structure 12 can also be used to mount a camera, and the third mounting structure 13 can also be used to mount a camera. The cameras mounted at the first mounting structure 11, the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13 can be of the same type or of different types.

[0059] The cover body 1 is provided with an escape hole 15 for the camera lens to shoot. Thus, the cover body 1 does not block the camera lens.

[0060] For example, different mounting structures can be installed with different types of cameras. For example, a camera can be a driving recorder that captures and records images of the vehicle while it is driving, and can be installed on the first mounting structure 11; for example, a camera can be part of a road preview system (also known as a magic carpet system), and the camera detects the flatness and concave and convex foreign objects of the road ahead of the vehicle in advance, obtains a three-dimensional point cloud map of the road, calculates the target size through an algorithm, and further performs color image segmentation, and inputs the relevant result data to the active suspension control system of the vehicle. The active suspension system can complete the shock absorption and driving mode automatic adjustment functions according to pre-set parameters, and the camera of the road preview system can be installed on the second mounting structure 12; for example, a camera can be part of an ADAS, and the camera of the ADAS can be installed on the third mounting structure 13. It is worth noting that the above description and explanation are only exemplary, and the driving recorder can also be installed on the second mounting structure 12, the camera of the road preview system can also be installed on the third mounting structure 13, and the camera of the ADAS can also be installed on the first mounting structure 11.

[0061] In the prior art, the images of the road preview system camera, the driving recorder camera and the ADAS camera are not the same. However, with the improvement of vehicle intelligence technology, the camera images of the above three can be shared, focusing on the road conditions of the vehicle from multiple angles. The three cameras only differ in image capture angle and shooting focus. At this time, the three cameras can be the same camera, and there are multiple cameras of the same camera, and the multiple cameras are located in different installation structures.

[0062] like Figure 4-Figure 6 , Fig.29 , Fig.34 As shown, in a first direction (for example, front-to-back direction), the first mounting structure 11, the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13 are arranged in sequence to avoid interference between the camera located on the first mounting structure 11, the camera located on the second mounting structure 12 and the camera located on the third mounting structure 13 in the first direction, while improving the integration of the cover body 1, which is conducive to a more compact structure.

[0063] like Figure 4-Figure 6 , Fig.29 , Fig.34As shown, in the second direction (e.g., the up-down direction), the second mounting structure 12 is at least partially located above the first mounting structure 11, and the third mounting structure 13 is at least partially located above the second mounting structure 12. In other words, in the second direction, the second mounting structure 12 at least partially overlaps with the first mounting structure 11, and the third mounting structure 13 at least partially overlaps with the second mounting structure 12. Thus, in the first direction, the distance between the second mounting structure 12 and the first mounting structure 11 is relatively close, and the distance between the third mounting structure 13 and the second mounting structure 12 is relatively close, so that the size of the first mounting structure 11, the second mounting structure 12, and the third mounting structure 13 in the first direction is reduced. It can be understood that when the first mounting structure 11, the second mounting structure 12, and the third mounting structure 13 do not overlap in the second direction, the distance between the first mounting structure 11, the second mounting structure 12, and the third mounting structure 13 in the first direction will be relatively far, resulting in a larger size of the cover body 1 in the first direction and a bulky structure. The second direction is the height direction of the vehicle. Different mounting structures have a height interval. The camera on the mounting structure can use the interval to correspond to the avoidance hole 15, so as to capture the image of the road surface on which the vehicle is traveling. Without affecting the camera field of view, the height interval of different mounting structures allows the camera to be partially stacked on the cover body 1 along the height direction, reducing the size of the cover body 1 in the first direction, making the structure of the windshield cover 100 more compact.

[0064] For example, the first direction here is Figure 1 The front-to-back direction shown; the second direction is Figure 1 The up and down directions shown; again refer to Figure 1 , the front-to-back direction is the traveling direction of the vehicle, and the up-down direction is the height direction of the vehicle.

[0065] The cover body 1 can be mounted on a front windshield 300 of a vehicle, and the escape hole 15 faces a side of the front windshield 300 of the vehicle.

[0066] like Fig.29 As shown, in the related art, different mounting structures are laid out on the cover body along the first direction, but the first mounting structure is staggered with the second mounting structure in the first direction, so that the size of the cover body in the first direction is increased. In the present application, different mounting structures are spaced apart in height, and the camera can be arranged along the second direction (such as Figure 1 The first and second mounting structures 12 and 13 are stacked on the cover body 1 in the vertical direction as shown, making full use of the space of the windshield cover 100 in the second direction. Thus, in the first direction, the distance between the second mounting structure 12 and the first mounting structure 11 is relatively close, and the distance between the third mounting structure 13 and the second mounting structure 12 is relatively close, so that the size of the cover body 1 in the first direction can be reduced, making the structure of the windshield cover 100 more compact. Fig.29 In the related art, the projection boundary of the windshield cover on the windshield is L2, and in the present application, the projection boundary of the windshield cover 100 on the windshield 300 is L1, and the interval between L1 and L2 is δ, wherein δ is at least 14.5 mm, that is, in the present application, the windshield cover 100 is locally thickened to make full use of the space in the second direction to reduce the size of the windshield cover 100 in the first direction.

[0067] According to the windshield cover 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, different mounting structures have a height interval, and the camera on the mounting structure can use the interval to correspond to the avoidance hole 15, so as to capture the image of the road surface on which the vehicle is traveling. Without affecting the camera's field of view, the height interval of the different mounting structures allows the camera to be partially stacked on the cover body 1 along the height direction. The local thickening of the windshield cover 100 can reduce the size of the cover body 1 in the first direction, making the structure of the windshield cover 100 more compact; it can also reduce the area of ​​the printed black area on the windshield 300.

[0068] For example, a printed black area is provided in the middle of the upper side of the windshield 300, and the cover body 1 is connected to the printed black area in the middle of the upper side of the windshield 300 by adhesive. The printed black area can shield the cover body 1, thereby improving the neatness and aesthetics of the windshield 300.

[0069] For example, Figure 1-Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the avoidance hole 15 includes a first avoidance hole 151, a second avoidance hole 152 and a third avoidance hole 153. The first avoidance hole 151 corresponds to the lens of the first camera 21, the second avoidance hole 152 corresponds to the lens of the second camera 22, and the third avoidance hole 153 corresponds to the lens of the third camera 23.

[0070] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a sensor mounting structure 14 is provided on the cover body 1, and in the third direction, the sensor mounting structure 14 is located on the same side of the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13. The sensor 4 can be installed on the sensor mounting structure 14, and the sensor 4 here can be a rain sensor, a temperature sensor, etc. The sensor mounting structure 14 in the present application is conducive to the installation of the sensor, and further improves the integration of the front windshield cover 100.

[0071] like Figure 4As shown, for example, the sensor mounting structure 14 can be on the right side of the second mounting structure 12, and the sensor mounting structure 14 is also on the right side of the third mounting structure 13; or in some embodiments not shown in the figure, the sensor mounting structure 14 can be on the left side of the second mounting structure 12, and the sensor mounting structure 14 is also on the left side of the third mounting structure 13. In combination with the above embodiments, the arrangement of the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13 allows the camera to be moved along the second direction (such as Figure 1 The sensor mounting structure 14 is stacked on the cover body 1 (in the up and down direction shown in the figure), making full use of the space of the windshield cover 100 in the second direction; therefore, in the first direction, the distance between the second mounting structure 12 and the first mounting structure 11 is relatively close, and the distance between the third mounting structure 13 and the second mounting structure 12 is relatively close, which can reduce the size of the cover body 1 in the first direction; the sensor mounting structure 14 is arranged on the same side of the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13, which can reduce the size of the cover body 1 in the third direction. Compared with another embodiment in which the sensor mounting structure 14 is arranged between the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13 in the third direction (that is, along the third direction, the second mounting structure 12, the sensor mounting structure 14, and the third mounting structure 13 are arranged in sequence), the sensor mounting structure 14 is located on the same side of the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13, which can reduce the size of the cover body 1 in the third direction. For example, the third direction is Figure 1 The left and right directions shown in the figure may be the width direction of the vehicle. Figure 4 In the third direction (i.e., the left-right direction of the vehicle), the sensor mounting structure 14 is located on the same side of the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13. In this way, in the width direction of the vehicle, the sensor 4 at the sensor mounting structure 14 will not be between the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13, and the sensor 4 at the sensor mounting structure 14 will not block the cameras at the second mounting structure 12 and the third mounting structure 13.

[0072] For example, Fig.26 As shown, a rearview mirror mounting structure 16 is also provided on the cover body 1. In the first direction, the rearview mirror 5 is mounted on the rearview mirror mounting structure 16, and the rearview mirror 5 is away from the third camera 23 and is arranged toward the interior of the vehicle.

[0073] For example, the windshield cover 100 is further provided with a rear cover 3 , and a receiving cavity is defined between the rear cover 3 and the cover body 1 , and the receiving cavity can accommodate electrical components such as a camera, a sensor 4 , and cables.

[0074] like Figure 5 and Figure 8As shown, the camera cover assembly 200 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes a first camera 21, a second camera 22, a third camera 23 and a front windshield cover 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model. The first camera 21 is installed on the first mounting structure 11; the second camera 22 is installed on the second mounting structure 12; the third camera 23 is installed on the third mounting structure 13.

[0075] According to the camera cover assembly 200 of the embodiment of the utility model, cameras of different sizes and specifications can be integrated, which can improve the integration and make the structure of the camera cover assembly 200 more compact. Different mounting structures have a height interval, and the camera on the mounting structure can use the interval to correspond to the avoidance hole 15, so as to capture the image of the road surface on which the vehicle is traveling. While not affecting the field of view of the camera, the height interval of the different mounting structures allows the camera to be partially stacked on the cover body 1 in the height direction, reducing the size of the cover body 1 in the first direction, making the structure of the windshield cover 100 more compact.

[0076] like Figure 6 , Figure 9-13 As shown, in some embodiments, the first camera 21 has a boss 211, the first mounting structure 11 includes a support arm 111, the support arm 111 has a slot 1111, and the boss 211 is engaged in the slot 1111. One end of the support arm 111 is connected to the cover body 1, and the other end of the support arm 111 forms a slot opening, and the boss 211 can be engaged in the slot 1111 from the slot opening. In this way, the stability and reliability of the connection of the first camera 21 to the cover body 1 can be improved.

[0077] like Fig.13As shown, for example, the support arm 111 includes a first branch arm and a second branch arm, the first branch arm is provided with a first protrusion 1112, one end of the first branch arm is connected to the cover body 1, the first protrusion 1112 is connected to the end of the other end of the first branch arm, the boss 211 has a first clamping protrusion 2111 protruding along the radial direction of the boss 211, and the first clamping protrusion 2111 can be clamped at the first protrusion 1112; the second branch arm is provided with a first guide surface 1113 arranged opposite to the first protrusion 1112, and the outer portion of the first guide surface 1113 The profile is a combination of an arc segment and an inclined segment, the arc segment includes a first arc segment and a second arc segment, the first arc segment is located at the end of the inclined segment away from the cover body 1, and the second arc segment is located at the side of the inclined segment close to the cover body 1; wherein, in the direction close to the cover body 1, the inclined segment gradually approaches the first branch arm, the slot width of the card slot 1111 gradually decreases, the minimum slot width of the card slot 1111 is smaller than the radial dimension of the protruding column 211, and the minimum slot width of the card slot 1111 is the distance between the end of the second arc segment away from the inclined segment and the first branch arm. Based on the above specific example, during installation, it is only necessary to align the protruding column 211 with the card slot 1111, push it in, and rotate it until the first protrusion 1112 cooperates with the first card protrusion 2111, which improves the convenience of installing the first camera 21; at the same time, it also ensures that the protruding column 211 is limited in the card slot 1111, improves the stability of the first camera 21, and thus improves the reliability of shooting.

[0078] like Fig. 9 , Figure 14-Figure 19 and Fig.26 As shown, in some embodiments, the second mounting structure 12 includes a first elastic arm 121 and a second elastic arm 122 that are arranged oppositely and spaced apart. The first elastic arm 121 and the second elastic arm 122 each include a base portion and an elastic body portion, the base portion is connected to the cover body 1, one end of the elastic body portion close to the third mounting structure 13 is connected to the base portion, and one end of the elastic body portion close to the first mounting structure 11 forms a clamping portion 121c, and the second camera 22 can be mounted between the first elastic arm 121 and the second elastic arm 122. Both sides of the second camera 22 are provided with a clamping tongue 223 suitable for hooking with the clamping portion 121c in the first direction, which can improve the stability and reliability of the second camera 22 connected to the cover body 1.

[0079] It is understandable that the first elastic arm 121 and the second elastic arm 122 have the same structure. Taking the first elastic arm 121 as an example, a specific example is described. Fig. 9As shown, the first elastic arm 121 includes a first base portion 121a, a first elastic body portion 121b and a clamping portion 121c, and the clamping portion 121c is arranged on the first elastic body portion 121b.

The first elastic body portion 121b is arranged at intervals from the guide groove; one end of the first elastic body portion 121b is connected to a side of the first base portion 121a close to the third mounting structure 13, and the other end of the first elastic body portion 121b is a movable end, and the clamping portion 121c is arranged at the end of the other end. As shown Fig.19 As shown, the engaging tongue 223 of the second camera 22 moves along the guide groove, and when the engaging tongue 223 moves to the movable end of the first elastic body part 121b, it can push open the movable end, and after the engaging tongue 223 is engaged with the engaging part 121c, the movable end returns to its original position under the elastic force of the first elastic body part 121b. This improves the convenience of installing the second camera 22.

[0080] For example, the second elastic arm 122 and the first elastic arm 121 are symmetrically arranged on the cover body 1 , and the second camera 22 can be installed between the first elastic arm 121 and the second elastic arm 122 .

[0081] For example, Fig.16 and Fig.26 As shown, the second camera 22 also includes a third limiting column 225, which is connected to one side of the lens of the second camera 22. The front side of the cover body 1 is provided with a third limiting cylinder 123 for the third clamping column 225 to pass through. The third limiting cylinder 123 and the third clamping column 225 are clamped together to prevent the lens of the second camera 22 from being too close to the avoidance hole 15, thereby avoiding damage to the camera.

[0082] like Figure 20-24 As shown, in some embodiments, the third mounting structure 13 includes one or more mounting arms 131, the mounting arms 131 are connected to the cover body 1, each mounting arm 131 is provided with at least one slot 1311, and the third camera 23 has a plug board 231, and the plug board 231 is plugged into the slot 1311.

[0084] In some embodiments, the second camera 22 includes a plurality of lenses, and the plurality of lenses are dispersedly arranged along a direction perpendicular to both the first direction and the second direction.

[0085] like Figure 26-Figure 28 As shown, for example, the second camera 22 is a binocular camera used in a road preview system, including a first lens 221 and a second lens 222; a recessed area 224 is provided between the first lens 221 and the second lens 222 of the binocular camera, and a portion of the first camera 21 is located in the recessed area 224, thereby reducing the size of the camera cover assembly 200 in the height direction. Please refer to Fig.33 , the first camera 21 is a driving recorder, and the first camera 21 is located outside the second camera field of view G2 (the second camera field of view G2 is the area within the second camera field of view boundary G22), thereby preventing the second camera 22 from mistaking the first camera 21 for part of the road condition; the second camera 22 is located outside the first camera field of view G1 (the first camera field of view G1 is the area within the first camera field of view boundary G11), thereby preventing the second camera 22 from blocking the field of view of the first camera 21. Among them, the field of view of the first camera 21 is facing the front of the vehicle and has a large range, and the field of view of the second camera 22 is facing the front of the vehicle and has a smaller range than the field of view of the first camera 21, thereby realizing the capture of the vehicle driving road conditions from different angles and fields of view.

[0086] like Figure 30-Figure 32 As shown, in some embodiments, the camera cover assembly 200 further includes a sensor 4, the sensor 4 has an elastic plate 41, one of the sensor mounting structure 14 on the cover body 1 and the elastic plate 41 is provided with a clamping hole 411, and the other is provided with a buckle 141, and the buckle 141 can be engaged with the clamping hole 411. For example, the sensor 4 is a rain sensor.

[0087] The vehicle according to the embodiment of the utility model includes a windshield 300 and a camera cover assembly 200 according to the embodiment of the utility model, the windshield 300 has a wiping area 6 to be wiped by the wiper; the shooting areas of the first camera 21, the second camera 22 and the third camera 23 on the windshield 300 are located within the wiping area 6, the first direction is the direction extending from the front lower edge to the rear upper edge of the windshield 300, the second direction is the height direction of the vehicle, and the direction perpendicular to both the first direction and the second direction is the third direction.

[0088] The shooting areas of the first camera 21, the second camera 22 and the third camera 23 on the windshield 300 are located within the first boundary S1 of the wiper and within the second boundary S2 of the wiper, and the field of view boundary of the camera is 15 to 20 mm away from the first boundary S1 of the wiper and 15 to 20 mm away from the second boundary S1 of the wiper, wherein the center of the rain sensor 4 is spaced more than 57 mm away from the first boundary S1 of the wiper or the second boundary S2 of the wiper.

[0089] According to the vehicle of the embodiment of the utility model, the wiper can clean the camera field of view, thereby improving the clarity of the camera shooting. At the same time, the different installation structures of the front windshield cover 100 have a height interval, and the camera on the installation structure can use the interval to correspond to the avoidance hole 15, so as to capture the image of the road surface on which the vehicle is traveling. Without affecting the camera field of view, the height interval of the different installation structures allows the camera to be partially stacked on the cover body 1 in the height direction, reducing the size of the cover body 1 in the first direction, making the structure of the front windshield cover 100 more compact.
