A first feature being "below", "below" and "below" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0038] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and other directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplified operation, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0039] Existing storage boxes are usually opaque, and users need to open them to check whether there are items in the storage box, which makes it inconvenient for users to observe the status of the storage box. If the storage box is designed to be transparent, it will lack privacy, and the transparent storage box will easily cause the items in the storage box to be damaged by the sun, making it impossible for the storage box to have both protection and observation functions.

[0040] In order to solve the above problems, Figure 1 to Figure 3As shown, the present embodiment provides a printed electrochromic storage box, which includes a box body 1, an electrochromic film 2, a power supply component 3 and a weight detection component 4, wherein the box body 1 has at least one side wall that is a transparent side wall, the electrochromic film 2 is attached to the transparent side wall, the power supply component 3 is electrically connected to the electrochromic film 2, the power supply component 3 is used to apply a corresponding voltage to the electrochromic film 2, the weight detection component 4 is arranged in the box body 1, the weight detection component 4 is communicatively connected to the power supply component 3, and the weight detection component 4 is used to detect the weight of the items placed in the box body 1. The printed electrochromic storage box provided in the present embodiment enables the power supply component 3 to adjust the voltage value applied by the power supply component 3 to the electrochromic film 2 according to the detection value of the weight detection component 4, so that the color of the electrochromic film 2 changes. When there are items placed in the box 1, the weight detection component 4 detects the weight of the items. At this time, the power supply component 3 applies a corresponding voltage to the electrochromic film 2 according to the detection value of the weight detection component 4, so that the color of the electrochromic film 2 becomes darker to prevent the items from being damaged by the sun and improve privacy. When there are no items stored in the box 1, the weight detection component 4 does not detect the weight of the items. The power supply component 3 applies another corresponding voltage to the electrochromic film 2 according to the detection value of the weight detection component 4, so that the color of the electrochromic film 2 becomes lighter until it is transparent, so as to facilitate the observation of the situation in the box 1 through the transparent side wall and the electrochromic film 2. The above-mentioned structural setting of the printed electrochromic storage box facilitates the user to judge whether there are items stored in the box 1, and also enables the printed electrochromic storage box to take into account both the protection function and the function of facilitating observation.

[0041] It should be noted that electrochromism refers to the phenomenon that the optical properties (transmittance, reflectivity or absorptivity) of a material undergo stable reversible changes under the action of electric current or electric field. This then manifests itself as reversible changes in color and transparency, which in turn can adjust the amount of sunlight that passes through.

[0042] Optionally, in this embodiment, the weight detection component 4 is arranged on the bottom wall of the box body 1, and the weight detection component 4 includes a weight detection sensor and a control unit. The weight detection sensor is used to detect the weight of items placed in the box body 1. The weight detection sensor and the power supply component 3 are both communicatively connected to the control unit. When there are items placed in the box body 1, the weight detected by the weight detection sensor is greater than a preset value. At this time, the control unit controls the power supply component 3 to apply a corresponding voltage to the electrochromic film 2 according to the received weight information, so that the color of the electrochromic film 2 becomes darker. When there are no items stored in the box body 1, the weight detected by the weight detection sensor is not greater than the preset value. At this time, the control unit controls the power supply component 3 to apply another corresponding voltage to the electrochromic film 2 according to the received weight information, so that the color of the electrochromic film 2 becomes lighter until it is transparent.

[0043] Optionally, in this embodiment, the power supply component 3 can be a solar panel, which is arranged on the top wall of the box 1, is electrically connected to the electrochromic film 2, and is communicatively connected to the control unit. By designing the power supply component 3 in the form of a solar panel, it is more energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

When the user needs to take out the items stored in the box 1, the take-out door 12 can be used to open the take-out port to take out the items in the box 1 through the take-out port. After taking out the items, the take-out door 12 blocks the take-out port to ensure the safety of the box 1. Optionally, in this embodiment, one end of the take-out door 12 is rotatably connected to the box body 11, and the take-out door 12 rotates relative to the box body 11, so as to achieve the blocking or opening operation of the take-out door 12 on the take-out port. Optionally, in other embodiments, the pickup door 12 can be slidably connected to the box body 11, and the pickup door 12 can be designed as a sliding door so that the pickup door 12 slides relative to the box body 11, thereby enabling the pickup door 12 to block or open the pickup port.

[0047] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the box 1 also includes a first locking member 13 and a second locking member (not shown in the figure), the first locking member 13 is arranged on the access door 12, and the second locking member is arranged on the box body 11. When the access door 12 blocks the access port, the first locking member 13 and the second locking member are engaged to lock the position of the access door 12, thereby ensuring the reliability of the access door 12 blocking the access port and improving the safety of the box 1. Optionally, the first locking member 13 can be a lock hook, and the second locking member can be an electronic lock. The user can separate the first locking member 13 and the second locking member by performing corresponding unlocking operations on the electronic lock, so that the access door 12 can open the access port. Since the specific structure and principle of the lock hook and the electronic lock for engaging and unlocking belong to the prior art, they will not be repeated here. Optionally, in other embodiments, the first locking member 13 can also be arranged on the box body 11, and the second locking member can be arranged on the access door 12.

When the position information of the box body 1 detected by the GPS positioning component changes from the preset position information, the alarm component can issue an alarm, thereby preventing the printed electrochromic storage box from being stolen, thereby improving the safety of the printed electrochromic storage box. Since the specific structure and working principle of the GPS positioning component and the alarm component belong to the prior art, they will not be described in detail here.

The power supply component 3 applies relative voltages to the first conductive layer 22 and the second conductive layer 25, so that the electrolyte layer 23 and the electrochromic layer 24 in the middle position undergo corresponding oxidation and reduction, thereby showing corresponding colors.

[0050] Optionally, the first conductive layer 22 and the second conductive layer 25 are both made of transparent conductive materials, specifically ITO, nano silver wires or metal meshes.
