Specific Embodiments
[0033] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for the purpose of illustration and explanation of the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.
[0034] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the orientation terms such as "inside" and "outside" refer to "inside" and "outside" relative to the contour of the corresponding component itself. In addition, in the following description, when referring to the drawings, unless otherwise explained, the same reference numerals in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The above definitions are only for the purpose of explaining and illustrating the present disclosure, and should not be construed as a limitation of the present disclosure.
[0035] Taking the application of the intelligent surface structure to the automotive field as an example, with the continuous development of automotive interior entertainment and comfort, large screens, lights, and touch buttons are everywhere. While bringing convenience, it also causes problems such as an increasing number of control factors, lack of design sense in styling, lack of integrity, and distraction of attention. By applying IME, the technologies of invisible backlighting and hidden touch buttons with highly integrated surfaces of multiple materials are realized, which can not only meet the interaction requirements but also be invisible at any time, reducing driver distraction, being safer, having a high overall styling degree and more designability; at the same time, integrating structural parts and circuits, it is lightweight and has a high space utilization rate.
[0036] In the present disclosure, as Figures 1 to 7 shown, the present disclosure provides an intelligent surface structure. The intelligent surface structure includes a decorative layer 1, a substrate layer 2, and a functional layer 3 arranged in a stacked manner. The present disclosure provides different embodiments of the intelligent surface structure. Before introducing multiple embodiments, relevant introductions to the decorative layer 1, the substrate layer 2, and the functional layer 3 are made.
[0037] Regarding the decorative layer 1, it can be connected to the light-emitting side 22 of the substrate layer 2 on the side facing away from the light-emitting element 31 of the functional layer 3. As Figure 5 and Figure 7 shown, the decorative layer 1 can be provided with an information mark 101. The information mark 101 can include the light-emitting positions of two reading lights and the control and emergency call marks for the sunroof. Of course, the above information mark 101 is not limited to the content provided in the embodiments and can be designed according to needs.
[0038] The above-mentioned information mark 101 has an off state and an awake state. In the off state, the information mark 101 is not displayed, and the outer surface of the decorative layer 1 is consistent with the surface to be installed of the intelligent surface mounting structure, and is integrated with the surrounding interior to achieve a hidden effect, with a higher overall shape, which will not distract the driver's attention and is safer and more reliable. When the driver needs to touch the information mark 101, the information mark 101 switches to the awake state, the information mark 101 lights up, and touching the information mark 101 can trigger a preset action. The preset action here is performed by the driving part inside the seat or sunroof, which can be an action of driving the seat back to adjust forward or backward, or it can be performed by the heater, which can be an action of heating the backrest, etc., without specific restrictions. Just press the corresponding information mark 101 with your finger, and the information mark 101 will make corresponding actions and feedback under pressure, so that the seat and sunroof can be adjusted, and by pressing the circle position on both sides of the sunroof controller for a long time, the brightness of the reading light will change, which can be adjusted according to user needs. In addition, only the information mark 101 of the reading light can be displayed in the sunroof controller. The information mark 101 of the sunroof adjustment will be extinguished within the set time. When the reading light function is not needed, double-click the information mark 101 of the reading light to extinguish the reading light. The interactive method of the information mark 101 can be designed differently according to needs.
[0039] The decorative layer 1 has an inner surface and an outer surface, and the information mark 101 is arranged on the inner surface. In order to achieve a better hiding effect, the outer surface of the decorative layer 1 can be printed with a texture consistent with the installation surface of the smart surface structure or covered with translucent fabric, leather, etc. to achieve a hiding effect. The information mark 101 can be hidden under the translucent texture or translucent fabric.
[0040] The inner surface of the decorative layer 1 is coated with light-transmitting ink at the location of the information mark 101, and the other areas of the inner surface are coated with light-shielding ink. In this way, the light-emitting element 31 in the functional layer 3 can pass through the information mark 101 to display the information mark 101 or display a hidden backlight, or be used as a reading light. The other areas of the decorative layer 1 except the information mark 101 are coated with light-shielding ink to block the light of the light-emitting element 31 from being transmitted from other locations except the information mark 101, thereby ensuring the overall visual effect and user use.
[0041] Of course, in order to further improve the uniformity of the optical fiber when the information mark 101 is displayed, a light-homogenizing film may be provided on the decorative layer 1 .
[0042] Regarding the substrate layer 2, Figure 1 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 7As shown, the substrate layer 2 generally uses materials with good light transmittance, such as PC (polycarbonate), PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), acrylic, ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer), AES (sodium laureth sulfate), PI (polyimide), PPA (polyphthalamide), etc., which will not affect the light emitted by the light-emitting element 31 in the functional layer 3 from passing through the substrate layer 2 and acting on the decorative layer 1. The substrate layer 2 can be formed during the injection molding of the decorative layer 1 or can be manufactured separately, both of which fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0043] For example, the decorative layer 1 and the substrate layer 2 can be an integral structure, and the functional layer 3 is fixed on the surface of the substrate layer away from the decorative layer 1. After the decorative layer 1 and the substrate layer 2 are injection molded first, the functional layer 3 can be fixed to the bottom of the substrate layer 2 to form a complete structure. The functional layer 3 does not participate in the injection molding process, avoiding the displacement or damage of electronic devices such as the light-emitting element 31 in the functional layer 3 during the injection molding process. The outer surface after injection molding of the substrate layer 2 and the decorative layer 1 is not affected by the electronic devices in the functional layer 3, will not cause circuit or component pin embossing, has good flatness, and is heated more evenly, avoiding surface shrinkage printing phenomenon. Or, the substrate layer 2 and the decorative layer 1 can be formed into an integral part by in-mold injection, and the decorative layer 1 can also be transferred to the substrate layer 2 by in-mold transfer technology or pasted and fixed on the surface of the substrate layer 2 by pasting. The functional layer 3 can be fixed on the surface of the substrate layer 2 by means of pasting, welding, microstructures, etc.
[0044] Regarding the functional layer 3, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the functional layer 3 is provided with a light-emitting element 31. The light-emitting element 31 can be an LED lamp. Specifically, it can be an optical fiber LED lamp, that is, the optical path of the LED lamp is set through an optical fiber, which can avoid the influence of light leakage phenomenon caused by the diffusion of the LED light in the substrate layer 2 on the color consistency when the information mark 101 is displayed while ensuring the light consistency. The light-emitting element 31 can be multiple and corresponds to the position of the information mark 101 on the decorative layer 1, which can provide backlight to realize the lighting and display of the information mark 101. It is more beneficial for the light-emitting element 31 to make the information mark 101 brighter and more uniform. The position, quantity and arrangement of the light-emitting element 31 can be designed according to the number and position of the information mark 101. To sense the touch action, a touch sensing element is provided in the functional layer 3 to detect the pressure acting on the surface. The functional layer 3 can also be provided with a capacitive element, an inductive element, a silver paste circuit, an induction chip, etc. The capacitive element can correspond to the position of the information mark 101 on the decorative layer 1 and is printed on the functional layer 3 through conductive ink or silver paste to effectively identify and monitor the position of the user's pressing action. When the information mark 101 triggers a preset action, a vibration element, such as a vibration motor, is provided in the functional layer 3 to give feedback through vibration to remind the user that the action has been executed. In other embodiments, feedback can also be given through the flashing of the information mark 101, and the specific form is not limited.
[0045] Next, the intelligent surface structure in the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in a first aspect of the present disclosure, an intelligent surface structure is provided, which includes a decorative layer 1, a substrate layer 2 and a functional layer 3 arranged in a stacked manner in sequence. The functional layer 3 is provided with a light-emitting element 31. The substrate layer 2 has a light incident side 21 facing the light-emitting element 31. Among them, a light condensing structure 4 is provided on the light incident side 21 of the substrate layer 2, and the light condensing structure 4 corresponds to the position of the light-emitting element 31. The light condensing structure 4 of the present disclosure is located on the light incident side 21 and is correspondingly arranged with the light-emitting element 31, that is, the light condensing structure 4 is arranged on the outer side surface of the substrate layer 2. Such an arrangement can not only achieve the effect of converging light, but also converge more light rays emitted from the light-emitting element 31 on the functional layer 3 compared with the related art where the light condensing structure 4 is arranged at other positions (for example, the light condensing structure 4 is arranged between the substrate layers 2). Therefore, the light intensity of the light or backlight passing through the substrate layer 2 and irradiating on the decorative layer 1 is increased. In addition, the light condensing structure 4 can also make the converged light evenly diffuse around, making the distribution of the light more uniform. Based on this, when the user uses the product, the light condensing structure 4 can make the information mark 101 on the decorative layer 1 clearly appear, facilitating the user to use.
[0047] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the light focusing structure 4 may include a mounting portion 41 and a light focusing portion 42, wherein the mounting portion 41 is arranged corresponding to the light emitting element 31, and the light focusing portion 42 is arranged on the mounting portion 41. The light emitted by the light emitting element 31 arranged corresponding to the mounting portion 41 will be collected and evenly diffused in the light focusing portion 42, so that the light from the light-incoming side 21 can pass through the substrate layer 2 and irradiate the information mark 101 of the decorative layer 1.
[0048] Specifically, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the mounting portion 41 is recessed toward the side away from the functional layer 3, and at least a portion of the light emitting element 31 can extend into the mounting portion 41, and the light focusing portion 42 is disposed on at least a portion of the inner wall of the mounting portion 41. After the light emitting element 31 extends into the mounting portion 41, the light emitted by the light emitting element 31 will be scattered on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41, and thus, the light focusing portion 42 disposed on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41 can gather at least a portion of the light to increase the light intensity.
[0049] In addition, in order to enhance the focusing effect of the focusing portion 42, the focusing portion 42 can be arranged opposite to the light emission direction of the light emitting element 31. For example, if the light emitting element 31 is configured to emit light from the side, the focusing portion 42 can be arranged on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41; if the light emitting element 31 is configured to emit light from the end, the focusing portion 42 can be arranged on the bottom wall of the mounting portion 41. In this way, the light emitted by the light emitting element 31 can be gathered to the focusing portion 42 as much as possible to maximize the light intensity.
[0050] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a plurality of light-gathering portions 42 may be provided, and the plurality of light-gathering portions 42 are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41. The plurality of light-gathering portions 42 may converge light from multiple positions in the mounting portion 41 and make the pipelines in the light-gathering portions 42 diffuse evenly, so as to improve the light-gathering effect and the light-homogenizing effect in the mounting portion 41, thereby improving the light intensity in the light-gathering structure 4 and ensuring that the light can be irradiated to the decorative layer 1 relatively evenly. In addition, the plurality of light-gathering portions 42 may have a plurality of arrangement modes on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41. For example, the plurality of light-gathering portions 42 may be arranged at irregular intervals on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41, or the plurality of light-gathering portions 42 may be arranged regularly on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41 in an array arrangement, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0051] Among them, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the focusing portion 42 can be configured as a groove formed on the inner wall of the mounting portion 41. That is, the light emitted by the light emitting element 31 will be gathered in the groove and evenly diffused. It should be noted that the groove can be configured in a variety of shapes, such as a circular groove or a special-shaped groove with a triangular cross-section, etc., which is not limited in the present disclosure.
[0052] In addition, in some embodiments not shown, the light condensing portion 42 may also be configured as other structures capable of converging light, such as a convex lens structure or the like.
[0053] Similarly, as Figures 1 to 4 shown, both the mounting portion 41 and the light emitting element 31 may be provided with a plurality of them. The plurality of mounting portions 41 are spaced apart on the light incident side 21 and are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of light emitting elements 31. That is, a plurality of light converging points are provided on the light incident side 21, so that even if there are a plurality of information marks 101 provided on the decorative layer 1, there will be corresponding light condensing structures 4 corresponding thereto, ensuring the light intensity of different information marks 101 during use.
[0054] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figures 1 to 4 shown, the decorative layer 1 is provided with an information mark 101, and the projection of the information mark 101 on the functional layer 3 at least partially covers the light emitting element 31. That is, the light emitted by the light emitting element 31 can be converged in the light condensing structure 4 and directly irradiated onto the information mark 101 of the decorative layer 1 to ensure the illumination intensity of the information mark 101 in the wake-up state, facilitating user use.
[0055] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, the light incident side 21 includes a light blocking structure 5. The light blocking structure 5 divides the light incident side 21 into a plurality of light condensing regions 6. At least one light condensing structure 4 is provided in at least part of the light condensing regions 6. The projection of the light condensing region 6 provided with at least one light condensing structure 4 on the decorative layer 1 at least covers one information mark 101. In this way, when the user wakes up the information mark 101, the light condensing structure 4 in the light condensing region 6 corresponding to the information mark 101 can converge the light emitted by the light emitting element 31 corresponding to the light condensing structure 4, improving the light intensity in the light condensing region 6 to ensure the brightness and light uniformity of the corresponding information mark 101 while lighting up the information mark 101. During this process, the light blocking structure 5 will block the light propagation in the light condensing region 6 to the adjacent light condensing region 6, avoiding the occurrence of light crosstalk and affecting the color consistency of the information mark 101.
[0056] In order to ensure that the information mark 101 can be clearly displayed on the decorative layer 1, it is advisable to provide only one light condensing structure 4 in each light condensing region 6, so as to ensure a certain distance between each light condensing structure 4 and reduce the influence of the light in one light condensing region 6 on the light in the surrounding other light condensing regions 6.
[0057] Of course, on some light-concentrating regions 6 of the light-concentrating structure 4, for example, at the edge positions near both ends of the light-incident side 21, corresponding light-emitting elements 31 may also be provided. The light emitted by the light-emitting elements 31 on the light-concentrating region 6 can provide backlight for the product or be used as a reading light. The light-emitting elements 31 in this region can be set to be always on, or corresponding information marks 101 can also be provided on the decorative layer 1 to be turned on by touching the information marks 101.
[0058] In addition, a vibration motor mounting position is also provided on the light-incident side 21 for feedback through vibration. For example, to remind the user that the action shown on the information mark 101 has been executed.
[0059] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the light-blocking structure 5 includes a plurality of light-blocking portions 51 arranged intersectingly. The region enclosed by the plurality of light-blocking portions 51, and / or the region enclosed by the plurality of light-blocking portions 51 and the inner sidewall of the substrate layer 2 close to the functional layer 3 form a plurality of light-concentrating regions 6 on the light-incident side 21; the light-blocking portions 51 are used to directly or indirectly block the light in one light-concentrating region 6 from entering another adjacent light-concentrating region 6. That is, the light-blocking portions 51 can separately have the effect of blocking light, and / or serve as the mounting position of the light-blocking material. The mounting position installs the light-blocking material to facilitate or assist the light-blocking material in blocking the mutual propagation of light between two adjacent light-concentrating regions 6, thereby avoiding the occurrence of light leakage.
[0060] For example, as Figure 1 shown, the light-blocking portion 51 can be configured as a light-blocking groove 52 with an opening facing the functional layer 3 side, and a light-shielding strip 7 is provided in the light-blocking groove 52. Among them, the light-shielding strip 7 can be made of a light-blocking material such as metal or plastic. After the light-shielding strip 7 is installed in the light-blocking groove 52 by means of gluing or pasting, etc., it can block the light from passing through the light-concentrating region 6, ensuring the light intensity and light uniformity of the corresponding light-concentrating region 6.
[0061] Or, in some embodiments not shown, the light-blocking portion 51 can be directly configured as a protrusion protruding towards the outside of the light-incident side 21 to block the propagation of light.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 1 shown, the light-blocking groove 52 can be formed on the light-incident side 21; and / or, a rib 511 protruding towards the functional layer 3 side is provided on the light-incident side 21, and the light-blocking groove 52 is provided on the rib 511.
[0063] Correspondingly, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, a groove 32 with an opening facing the substrate layer 2 may further be included on the functional layer 3 to accommodate or connect to a structure protruding from the light incident side 21 toward the functional layer 3. For example, the groove 32 may be set larger without affecting the installation of other structures to accommodate other protruding structures such as the rib 511 for setting the light shielding groove 52 and other protruding structures provided on the light incident side 21, or to accommodate a vibration motor installed on the light incident side 21, so that the functional layer 3 and the substrate layer 2 can be more closely attached; alternatively, the groove 32 may be adapted to the shape of the rib 511 and other protruding structures or the vibration motor on the corresponding substrate layer 2, so that the rib 511 or the protruding structure can be embedded in the groove 32. Thus, while the functional layer 3 and the substrate layer 2 are closely attached, the connection stability between the two can be improved.
[0064] In a second aspect of the present disclosure, an electronic device is provided, including the above-mentioned intelligent surface structure. This electronic device has all the beneficial effects of the intelligent surface structure, and the present disclosure will not elaborate herein.
[0065] In a third aspect of the present disclosure, a vehicle is provided, including the above-mentioned intelligent surface structure. This vehicle has all the beneficial effects of the intelligent surface structure, and the present disclosure will not elaborate herein.
[0066] In summary, the working process of the intelligent surface structure is exemplarily shown in the present disclosure.
[0067] Since the outer surface of the decorative layer 1 is consistent with the surface to be installed of the intelligent surface mounting structure, when the information mark 101 is in the off state, it blends in with the surrounding interior decoration, achieving a hidden effect. When the user has a need, the information mark 101 can be switched to the wake-up state by gently touching the corresponding information mark 101. At this time, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 31 will be concentrated on the light-concentrating portion 42 of the mounting portion 41 of the light-concentrating structure 4 corresponding to the information mark 101, thereby increasing the illumination intensity of the light passing through the substrate layer 2 and irradiating onto the decorative layer 1. In addition, the light-concentrating structure 4 can also evenly diffuse the converged light in all directions, making the distribution of the light more uniform; during this process, the light shielding groove 52 and the light shielding strip 7 can prevent the light from propagating in different light-concentrating areas 6. Based on this, it is ensured that the information mark 101 of the present disclosure can be clearly displayed on the decorative layer 1, facilitating the user's use.
[0068] It should be noted that the intelligent surface structure can be but is not limited to being applied to fields such as vehicles, household appliances, portable electronic devices, and aviation. When applied to a vehicle, it can be an interior surface structure such as an intelligent central control display, a seat controller, an air conditioner controller, a sunroof controller, a steering wheel induction control, a door handle light display control, a seat belt fabric surface control, and a sub-instrument panel intelligent display, all of which fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0069] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
