[0035] A vehicle's rearview mirror is used to observe the following vehicles, but there are no rearview mirrors inside the vehicle to observe the rear passengers. This forces the driver to turn around to communicate with rear passengers while the vehicle is in motion, posing a significant safety hazard. Related technologies employ a dual-layer rearview mirror design: a large mirror for observing the following vehicles and a smaller one for observing the interior of the vehicle. This design occupies the front windshield, partially obstructing the driver's field of view, compromising driving safety. Furthermore, the structural design is aesthetically pleasing, impacting the user experience.
[0036] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a glasses case assembly and a vehicle.
[0037] The glasses case assembly provided in this application is described below.
[0038] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a glasses case in an initial position provided in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a glasses case in a first position provided in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 Schematic diagram of a glasses case in a second position provided in some embodiments of the present application. A glasses case assembly 100 is mounted on a roof 1 of a vehicle. The glasses case assembly 100 may include a glasses case 2 and an observation mirror 3.
[0039] The ceiling 1 may have a mounting groove 11 , and an opening of the mounting groove 11 may be arranged downward. One end of the glasses box 2 is rotatably arranged in the mounting groove 11 , so that the glasses box 2 can rotate relative to the ceiling 1 .
[0040] The glasses case 2 has a storage space 21 with a removal opening 211. Specifically, the storage space 21 can be used to store glasses. Users can remove glasses from the storage space 21 through the removal opening 211, or place glasses into the storage space 21 through the removal opening. When the glasses case 2 is located in the mounting slot 11, the removal opening 211 of the storage space 21 and the opening of the mounting slot 11 are located on opposite sides of the storage space 21, thereby preventing glasses from falling out of the glasses case 2.
[0041] The observation mirror 3 is provided on the outer wall of the storage space 21, and the rear passengers can be monitored through the observation mirror 3. For example, the diameter of the observation mirror 3 is 250 mm, which ensures the stability of the observation mirror 3. The observation mirror 3 may also have other sizes, which are not limited by this application.
[0042] The glasses case 2 has a first position and a second position. When the glasses case 2 is in the first position (i.e., when the glasses case 2 is rotated to the first position), at least a portion of the observation mirror 3 is located outside the mounting slot 11, and the removal opening 211 is located inside the mounting slot 11. The observation mirror 3 can be partially or completely exposed outside the mounting slot 11. This allows the driver to monitor the rear passengers through the observation mirror 3, and the glasses in the storage space 21 will not fall out of the removal opening 211.
[0043] For example, the glasses box 2 can be rotated 42 degrees to be in the first position, and the glasses box 2 can be rotated 90 degrees to be in the second position.
[0044] When the glasses case 2 is in the second position, that is, when the glasses case 2 is rotated to the second position, the removal port 211 is located outside the mounting slot 11, and is used to take out the glasses from the storage space 21 or put the glasses into the storage space 21. Therefore, when the user needs to use the glasses, they can directly rotate the glasses case 2 to take out the glasses from the storage space 21, or when the user does not need to use the glasses, they can put the glasses into the storage space 21. The operation is simple, which is conducive to improving the user experience.
[0045] The glasses box 2 may also have an initial position. When the glasses box 2 is in the initial position, the glasses box 2 is located in the mounting groove 11, and the outer surface of the glasses box 2 may be flush with the outer surface of the ceiling 1, so that when the observation mirror 3 is not in use, the glasses box 2 may be directly rotated to the initial position.
[0046] According to the glasses case assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present application, by rotatably positioning one end of the glasses case 2 within the mounting slot 11 of the ceiling 1, when the glasses case 2 is rotated to the first position, at least a portion of the observation mirror 3 located on the outer wall of the storage space 21 is located outside the mounting slot 11, and the removal opening 211 of the storage space 21 is located within the mounting slot 11. When the glasses case 2 is rotated to the second position, the removal opening 211 is located outside the mounting slot 11. Thus, when the driver needs to observe the rear passengers, they can rotate the glasses case 2 to the first position, thereby allowing them to see the rear passengers through the observation mirror 3 and avoiding occupying the front windshield 200 area, thereby improving vehicle driving safety. Furthermore, when the observation mirror 3 is not in use, the glasses case 2 can be stored within the mounting slot 11, thereby improving the aesthetics of the vehicle and, in turn, enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, integrating the observation mirror 3 into the glasses case 2 does not affect the glasses case 2's function of removing and storing glasses, further enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, it is possible to avoid providing additional components for installing the observation mirror 3 , thereby facilitating reduction in the manufacturing cost of the vehicle.
[0047] See also Figure 4-Figure 7, Figure 4 This is a partial schematic diagram of a glasses case in an initial position provided in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 5 This is a partial schematic diagram of a glasses case in a first position provided in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 6 A partial schematic diagram of a glasses case in a second position provided in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 7 A partial schematic diagram of a vehicle provided for some embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments, the glasses case assembly 100 may further include a first rotation damper 23 and a second rotation damper 12 that cooperate with each other. A rotation shaft 22 is provided at one end of the glasses case 2, and the glasses case 2 is rotatably connected to the mounting slot 11 via the rotation shaft 22. The first rotation damper 23 is sleeved on the rotation shaft 22, and the second rotation damper 12 is disposed in the mounting slot 11. Thus, when the glasses case 2 rotates to the first position, the first rotation damper 23 cooperates with the second rotation damper 12 to prevent the glasses case 2 from continuing to rotate after rotating to the first position. The simple structure is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the vehicle.
[0048] It should be noted that the rotation of the glasses case 2 can be driven by a motor or manually by a driver, and this application does not limit this.
[0049] Please continue reading Figure 4-Figure 7 In some embodiments, the first rotation damper 23 is a non-complete gear, the second rotation damper 12 is a gear damper, and the non-complete gear is transmission-connected to the gear damper. Specifically, when the non-complete gear acts on the gear damper, the gear starts to rotate. The gear damper may contain a plurality of gears meshing with each other, and these gears will be subject to resistance generated by an internal damping medium or a special structure during rotation. This resistance will convert the input mechanical energy into other forms of energy such as heat energy, thereby achieving damping control of the motion. Thus, the rotation angle of the glasses box 2 can be limited by the first rotation damper 23, and the limiting method is simple, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the glasses box assembly 100.
[0050] Please continue reading Figure 4-Figure 7 In some embodiments, the glasses case assembly 100 may further include a reset member 24. The reset member 24 is disposed on the rotating shaft 22 and is used to drive the glasses case 2 from the second position back to the first position. Thus, when the driver removes the glasses from the removal opening 211, the glasses case 2 automatically returns to the first position, allowing the driver to continue using the viewing mirror 3. This reduces the driver's operational effort, thereby improving vehicle safety and enhancing the user experience.
[0051] Please continue reading Figure 4-Figure 7In some embodiments, the reset member 24 may be a coil spring. The coil spring may include a coiled portion 241 and an abutting portion 242. The coiled portion 241 is connected to the rotating shaft 22. One end of the abutting portion 242 is connected to the coiled portion 241, and the other end is used to abut the ceiling 1. In the second position, the abutting portion 242 abuts the ceiling 1, and the coiled portion 241 is compressed. Specifically, when the glasses case 2 is in the initial position, there is no contact between the reset member 24 and the ceiling 1. When the glasses case 2 is in the first position, the rotating shaft 22 drives the coiled portion 241 to rotate to the first position, causing the abutting portion 242 to contact the ceiling 1. The torque of the coiled portion 241 is greater than the torque of the glasses plus the weight of the glasses case 2 on the rotating shaft. At this time, the coiled portion 241 is not compressed. When the glasses case 2 is in the second position, the abutting portion 242 is blocked by the ceiling 1, and the coiled portion 241 is compressed, providing a small counterforce. After the user inserts the glasses and releases the glasses case 2, the glasses case 2 can be reset to the first position. This arrangement is beneficial to reducing the manufacturing cost of the vehicle, while also facilitating user operation, thereby improving the user experience.
[0052] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the insertion rod and elastic member provided for some embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments, an insertion rod 25 may be provided on the glasses case 2. An elastic element 13 may be provided in the mounting groove 11. The elastic element 13 may include a driving member (not shown) and a buckle 131. The driving member is used to drive the buckle 131 to move relative to the mounting groove 11, and the buckle 131 is used to engage with the insertion rod 25. Specifically, when it is necessary to lock the glasses case 2, the insertion rod 25 can be directly engaged with the buckle 131. When it is necessary to unlock the glasses case 2, the driving member can drive the buckle 131 to move in a direction away from the mounting groove 11, so that the buckle 131 is disengaged from the insertion rod 25. Among them, the driving member can be a pull rod and a spring connected to the buckle 131, or it can be a driving motor, etc., and this application does not limit this.
[0053] Therefore, through the cooperation between the insertion rod 25 and the elastic element 13, the glasses case 2 needs to be manually pressed to pop open, which can prevent the glasses case 2 from popping out after being stored, thereby helping to improve the reliability of the glasses case assembly 100 and the safety of vehicle driving.
[0054] Please continue reading Figure 7 In some embodiments, a magnetic element 212 may be provided within the storage space 21. The magnetic element 212 is used to secure the glasses within the storage space 21. Specifically, the magnetic element 212 may be provided on the bottom wall of the storage space 21, or on both the bottom wall and the side walls of the storage space 21. This prevents the glasses from shaking within the storage space 21, thereby improving the user experience.
[0055] Please continue reading Figure 7 In some embodiments, the viewing mirror 3 is detachably connected to the glasses case 2. The detachable connection between the viewing mirror 3 and the glasses case 2 can be achieved by snapping, fastener connection, magnetic attraction, or the like. This allows the viewing mirror 3 to be replaced and repaired, thereby improving the maintainability of the glasses case assembly 100 and, in turn, enhancing the user experience.
[0056] It should be noted that the connection between the viewing mirror 3 and the glasses case 2 can also be a fixed connection, which can be connected by means of glue. This arrangement can ensure the reliability of the connection between the viewing mirror 3 and the glasses case 2.
[0057] The vehicle according to the embodiment of the present application is described below.
[0058] The embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, comprising the above-mentioned glasses case assembly 100, thereby facilitating improved vehicle driving safety.
[0059] See also Figure 7 In some embodiments, the vehicle may further include a front windshield 200 and a rearview mirror 300. The rearview mirror 300 is connected to the front windshield 200. In the second position, the distance H between the glasses case 2 and the rearview mirror 300 satisfies: H>10mm. This arrangement ensures that the field of view of the rearview mirror 300 is not blocked by the glasses case 2 when it is opened, thereby ensuring driving safety.
[0060] Exemplarily, the distance H between the glasses case 2 and the rearview mirror 300 may be 11 mm, 12 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm or 15 mm.
[0061] In the description of this specification, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be combined in an appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
