[0024] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] Cars typically have multiple windows. Passengers can adjust the windows up and down to connect or isolate the interior of the car from the outside world. These windows not only provide safety and protection, but also allow passengers to see the outside world. In related technologies, to ensure privacy within the car, a layer of film is often applied to the windows. However, this prevents passengers from seeing the outside world clearly through the windows unless the windows are opened. Passengers must lower the windows to see the outside world clearly.

[0026] With the development of science and technology, people are applying more and more technological products to their lives. For example, in the automotive field, glass windows are set as electrochromic windows. Electrochromic windows are a new type of special optoelectronic glass product with a sandwich structure that combines an electrochromic film between two layers of glass and forms an integral part after high-temperature and high-pressure gluing.

[0027] The optical properties of the electrochromic material in the electrochromic film (such as reflectivity, transmittance, absorptivity, etc.) can undergo stable and reversible color changes under the action of an external electric field, which appears as a reversible change in color and transparency.

[0028] The user controls the electrochromic window to switch between a tinted state, an intermediate state and a transparent state by energizing the electrochromic window.

[0029] For example, when an electrochromic material with increased transmittance in the forward direction and decreased transmittance in the reverse direction is used, applying a positive voltage to the electrochromic window increases its transmittance, allowing passengers inside the vehicle to clearly see the exterior without having to roll down the window. Applying a negative voltage to the window causes it to transition from a transparent state to an intermediate state or a tinted state, reducing its transmittance and effectively protecting the privacy of the vehicle interior.

[0030] It is worth noting that electrochromic windows refer to windows whose color and / or transparency can be reversibly changed at least in part, including partially colored windows and fully colored windows.

[0031] There are many ways to adjust the power on and off of electrochromic windows, such as adjusting the transmittance of electrochromic windows through manual adjustment, light control, voice control, or temperature control. In the technology of adjusting electrochromic windows through temperature control, it is necessary to detect the ambient temperature through a temperature sensing structure, and then feed the temperature back to the control structure, which controls the switching state of the electrochromic window. For example, the control structure can call different dimming strategies according to different temperatures to achieve the optimal dimming effect for the electrochromic window. However, during the production of electrochromic windows in related technologies, the temperature sensing structure is laminated into the interior of the electrochromic window using a sandwich process. This not only affects the cost and pricing of the electrochromic window assembly, but also affects the pass rate of the electrochromic window assembly, and also affects the overall appearance of the window glass.

[0032] This application provides a vehicle, please refer to Figure 1 The vehicle's glass windows use electrochromic windows 121. The present application solution can not only detect the ambient temperature, but also control the opening and closing of the electrochromic windows 121 according to the detection results, and can also ensure the assembly rate of the electrochromic windows 121, thereby reducing its assembly cost.

[0033] Specifically, in one embodiment, the vehicle of the present application includes a vehicle body 10 , a window frame 13 , and a temperature detection system. The vehicle body 10 is the frame structure of the entire vehicle and is the entirety of the vehicle. The window frame 13 is arranged on the vehicle body 10 .

[0034] Exemplarily, the window frame 13 is used to mount a vehicle window. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the window frame 13 is used to mount an electrochromic window 121. It is understood that a controller 21 is disposed within the vehicle body 10 or the window frame 13. The controller 21 is electrically connected to the electrochromic window 121, and the controller 21 can be used to adjust the electrochromic window 121 to switch between different states.

[0035] The temperature detector 20 is used to detect the ambient temperature. In the embodiment of the present application, the temperature detector 20 is installed on the vehicle body 10 or the window frame 13 , and the temperature detector 20 is electrically connected to the controller 21 .

[0036] The controller 21 has the functions of receiving signals, processing signals and controlling. For example, the controller 21 can be a control circuit board, which has a signal receiving module, a signal processing module and a controller 21. The temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 can be connected by signal, and the temperature information detected by the temperature detector 20 can be transmitted to the controller 21. The controller 21 adjusts the transmittance of the electrochromic window 121 according to the temperature information.

[0037] Unlike the prior art, which integrates the temperature detection structure into the electrochromic window 121, the temperature detector 20 in this application is separated from the electrochromic window 121 and is located on the vehicle body 10 or window frame 13. Because the vehicle body 10 and window frame 13 are in direct contact with the external environment, the temperature on the vehicle body 10 and window frame 13 can also directly reflect the ambient temperature. Therefore, the ambient temperature detected by the temperature detector 20 is more accurate, allowing the temperature detection system to adjust the state of the electrochromic window 121 according to the ambient temperature. Moreover, because the temperature detector 20 is located within the vehicle body 10 or window frame 13, it is not integrated with the electrochromic window 121, thereby ensuring the qualified rate of the electrochromic window 121 and reducing its assembly cost. Since the temperature detector 20 is not integrated into the electrochromic window 121, the present application solution also ensures that the electrochromic window 121 is more aesthetically pleasing overall.

[0038] It should be noted that the vehicle is provided with multiple windows, and the electrochromic window 121 can be a front door window installed on the front door 14, a rear door window installed on the rear door 12, a front windshield arranged at the front end of the vehicle, a rear windshield arranged at the rear end of the vehicle, or a sunroof arranged at the top of the vehicle.

[0039] In addition to the vehicle body 10 serving as the overall frame, the vehicle also includes doors that are movably connected to the vehicle body 10 for opening and closing the interior of the vehicle body 10. In one embodiment, the window frame 13 is the vehicle door, or at least a portion of the vehicle door serves as the window frame 13 for mounting the window, and the electrochromic window 121 is a front door window or a rear door window.

[0040] A typical vehicle has at least one front door 14 located on either side of the vehicle body 10. A typical family car or other vehicle is equipped with at least one front door 14 and a rear door 12. The rear door 12 of a vehicle can be opened and closed in a variety of ways, such as casement and side-opening. The casement type hinges one end of the rear door 12, and the door can be opened by pulling the end away from the hinge. The side-opening type connects the rear door 12 to the vehicle body 10 via a structure similar to a slider rail, and when the door is opened, the rear door 12 slides linearly relative to the vehicle body 10.

[0041] In one embodiment, the rear door 12 is a casement-opening vehicle, whereby the door is pivotally connected to the vehicle body 10 .

[0042] The temperature detector 20 can be positioned according to actual needs. For example, the temperature detector 20 can be installed on the vehicle door. When the temperature detector 20 is installed on the vehicle door, the temperature detector 20 can be set at a connection position close to the vehicle door and the vehicle body 10, or the temperature detector 20 can be set at a connection position away from the vehicle door and the vehicle body 10.

[0043] Exemplarily, the vehicle door is a front door 14 , and the temperature detector 20 is disposed at a connection position away from the vehicle door and the vehicle body 10 .

[0044] Exemplarily, the vehicle door is a rear door 12 , and the temperature detector 20 is disposed near a connection position between the vehicle door and the vehicle body 10 .

[0045] For example, the temperature detector 20 may also be installed on the vehicle body 10 . When the temperature detector 20 is installed on the vehicle body 10 , the temperature detector 20 may be disposed close to the connection position between the vehicle body 10 and the vehicle door.

[0046] It is understood that when the temperature detector 20 is disposed on the vehicle body 10, the controller 21 may be disposed on the vehicle body 10 or in the vehicle door. Similarly, when the temperature detector 20 is disposed on the vehicle door, the controller 21 may also be disposed on the vehicle body 10 or in the vehicle door. When one of the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 is disposed on the vehicle body 10 and the other on the vehicle door, the temperature detector 20 may be disposed near the junction of the vehicle door and the vehicle body 10, so as to be as close to the controller 21 as possible.

[0047] In some examples, the vehicle is also provided with pillars 11. It is worth noting that the pillars 11 in this application include a support structure that supports the entire roof and decorative components located outside the support structure. The pillars 11 are primarily located at three locations on the vehicle body 10: an A-pillar located at a position away from the rear door 12 between the front door 14, a B-pillar located between the front door 14 and the rear door 12, and a C-pillar located at a position away from the front door 14 between the rear door 12.

[0048] In some examples, the pillar 11 is further provided with a pillar cavity 113. When the vehicle door is closed, the pillar cavity 113 is arranged on the outer periphery of the vehicle door. For example, the pillar cavity 113 is integrated into the decorative component of the pillar 11 and arranged on the outer side of the support structure of the pillar 11, where the outer side refers to the side closer to the outside of the vehicle and farther from the inside. For example, when the temperature sensor 20 is installed on the vehicle body 10, the temperature sensor 20 can be installed in the pillar cavity 113 of the vehicle body 10. It should be noted that the temperature sensor 20 can be installed in any of the pillar cavities 113 of the A-pillar, the B-pillar, and the C-pillar. The corresponding controller 21 can be located in the front door 14, the rear door 12, or a position on the vehicle body 10 near the rear door 12.

[0049] In one embodiment, the vehicle pillar 11 is a B-pillar located between the front door 14 and the rear door 12, with the connection between the rear door 12 and the vehicle body 10 located near the B-pillar. A temperature detector 20 is disposed within the B-pillar's vehicle pillar cavity 113, and a controller 21 is disposed within the rear door 12, near the connection between the rear door 12 and the vehicle body 10. In one embodiment, the temperature detector 20 is located at one end of the B-pillar's vehicle pillar cavity 113 near the bottom of the rear door 12. This minimizes the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21, facilitating connection between the two.

[0050] In particular, when the connection position between the rear door 12 and the vehicle body 10 is located close to the C-pillar, the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is located on the C-pillar.

[0051] In one embodiment, the vehicle pillar 11 is an A-pillar located at the front door 14 away from the rear door 12, the connection position between the front door 14 and the vehicle body 10 is set close to the A-pillar, the temperature detector 20 is set in the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 of the A-pillar, and the controller 21 is set in the front door 1412, and the temperature detector 20 is close to the connection position between the front door 1412 and the vehicle body 10.

[0052] For some examples, see Figure 2 Alternatively, the door may be provided with a pillar accommodating cavity 113, which is integrated into the door. The pillar accommodating cavity 113 is integrated into the front door 14 or the rear door 12. The pillar accommodating cavity 113 is provided at the edge of the door. When the door is closed, a portion of the door is positioned outside the pillar 11. This portion of the door is provided with the pillar accommodating cavity 113, meaning that the pillar accommodating cavity 113 on the door is positioned outside the pillar 11. In this case, the temperature detector 20 is positioned within the pillar accommodating cavity 113 on the door, and the controller 21 is positioned within the door, allowing both the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 to be positioned within the door.

[0053] When the controller 21 is mounted on the vehicle door, it can be fixed to the bottom of the door. Alternatively, the controller 21 can be fixed to the bottom of the electrochromic window 121, allowing the controller 21 to move with the electrochromic window 121. When the pillar cavity 113 is mounted on the vehicle door and the temperature detector 20 is located within the cavity 113, the temperature detector 20 is located at the end of the cavity 113 closest to the bottom of the door. This minimizes the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21, facilitating connection between the two.

[0054] For example, when the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is set on the vehicle door, the position of the pillar accommodating cavity 113 can be determined according to actual conditions. For example, if the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is set on the front door 14, the pillar accommodating cavity 113 can be set at a connection position away from the front door 14 and the vehicle body 10; if the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is set on the rear door 12, the pillar accommodating cavity 113 can be set at a connection position close to the rear door 12 and the vehicle body 10.

[0055] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The controller 21 and the temperature detector 20 may be located together in the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 , or the controller 21 may be directly disposed in the vehicle door and located outside the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 .

[0056] By providing the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113, an installation position can be provided for the temperature detector 20. Since the temperature detector 20 is located inside the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113, the temperature detector 20 will not be exposed to the vehicle interior or the external environment, thereby providing good protection for the temperature detector 20.

[0057] In addition, the temperature detector 20 needs to be fixed in the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113. For example, the temperature detector 20 can be fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 by gluing, screws, bolts or snaps. In addition, in order to ensure the accuracy of the detected temperature, the detection probe of the temperature detector 20 is attached to the inner wall of the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113. In this way, the temperature of the external environment can pass through the inner wall of the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 to the temperature detector 20.

[0058] The vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 can be formed by an integrally formed structure or a structure formed by multiple structures. In the embodiment of the present application, the vehicle pillar 11 is formed by multiple structures. For example, the vehicle includes a frame 111, and the frame 111 is used to be connected to the vehicle body 10, or when the vehicle pillar 11 is set on the vehicle door, the frame 111 is connected to the vehicle door.

[0059] The frame 111 is provided with a receiving groove having an opening. The vehicle further includes a cover plate 112 connected to the frame 111. The connection between the cover plate 112 and the frame 111 is not limited. For example, the cover plate 112 can be fixed to the frame 111 via a snap-fit ​​structure, a snap-fit ​​structure, or adhesive. The cover plate 112, connected to the frame 111, covers the opening of the receiving groove to block it. A vehicle pillar receiving cavity 113 is formed between the cover plate 112 and the receiving groove of the frame 111.

[0060] The pillar cavity 113 is formed by the frame 111 and the cover 112. The frame 111 is provided with an open receiving slot into which the temperature sensor 20 can be placed. Once the cover 112 is closed, the temperature sensor 20 is stored within the slot. To repair or replace the temperature sensor 20, the cover 112 is removed from the frame 111 to inspect or replace it.

[0061] It should be noted that the accommodating groove in the frame 111 for accommodating the temperature detector 20 can be formed by a groove processing process, such as cutting, drilling, etc., or in a possible embodiment, the accommodating groove can also be directly formed by the structure of the frame 111. For example, the frame 111 includes an inner plate 1113 and multiple side plates 1111, the multiple side plates 1111 are connected to the same side of the inner plate 1113, and the multiple side plates 1111 are connected end to end, and a accommodating groove is formed between the multiple side plates 1111 and the inner plate 1113. The inner plate 1113 constitutes the bottom of the accommodating groove, and the multiple side plates 1111 constitute the groove wall of the accommodating groove. The multiple side plates 1111 are arranged at one end away from the inner plate 1113 to form an opening of the accommodating groove. The shape and size of the cover plate 112 are adapted to the shape and size of the opening of the accommodating groove so that the cover plate 112 can be connected to the end of the side plate 1111 away from the inner plate 1113.

[0062] It is worth mentioning that the temperature detector 20 is used to detect the ambient temperature. The specific type of the temperature detector 20 is not limited. The temperature detector 20 can be an infrared temperature sensor, a thermocouple, a thermistor, a thermistor or a temperature sensor chip. The temperature detector 20 in this application is illustrated using a thermistor as an example.

[0063] The temperature detector 20 needs to be positioned flush against the inner wall of the pillar cavity 113. For example, the temperature detector 20 needs to be fixed to the frame 111 or the cover 112. When the temperature detector 20 is fixed to the frame 111, it can be fixed to the side panel 1111 or the inner panel 1113. The specific location of the temperature detector 20 needs to be determined according to the actual situation and is not limited here. For example, when designing the pillar cavity 113, the inner panel 1113 forming the pillar cavity 113 can be positioned toward the outside of the vehicle, or the cover 112 forming the pillar cavity 113 can be positioned toward the outside of the vehicle.

[0064] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The pillar accommodating cavity 113 is set on the vehicle body 10, and the cover plate 112 of the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is set toward the outside of the vehicle, that is, the opening of the accommodating groove faces the outside of the vehicle, which is convenient for the installation and maintenance of the temperature detector 20. At this time, the temperature detector 20 can be fixed on the cover 112. Since the cover 112 is in direct contact with the external environment, the temperature thereon is similar to the temperature of the external environment. Therefore, when the temperature detector 20 is set on the cover 112, the temperature detected by it is more consistent with the ambient temperature; or the temperature detector 20 can also be set on the side panel 1111 or the inner panel 1113. If the temperature detector 20 needs to be inspected, the cover 112 needs to be opened to inspect the temperature detector 20. If the temperature detector 20 is set on the cover 112, the temperature detector 20 will also move with the cover 112 when the cover 112 is opened, and the cable connected to the temperature detector 20 will also move with it. At this time, the cable will be pulled, and the cable may be easily broken. If the temperature detector 20 is set on the inner panel 1113 or the side panel 1111, the problem of pulling the cable will not occur when the cover 112 is opened.

[0065] In one feasible embodiment, the cover plate 112 forming the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is positioned toward the interior of the vehicle. In this case, the temperature detector 20 can be positioned on the inner plate 1113. Inner plate 1113 is closer to the outside environment, and the temperature thereon is closest to that of the outside environment. When the temperature detector 20 is positioned on inner plate 1113, the temperature detected by the temperature detector 20 is also most consistent with the outside environment. Furthermore, since the temperature detector 20 is positioned on inner plate 1113, the cable is not pulled when the cover plate 112 is removed from the frame 111.

[0066] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 3When the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is disposed in the vehicle body 10, and the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 are disposed in the pillar accommodating cavity 113 and the rear door 12, respectively, the connection between the rear door 12 and the vehicle body 10 is close to the pillar accommodating cavity 113, and the temperature detector 20 is located at the end of the pillar accommodating cavity 113 near the rear door 12. This allows the distance between the end of the rear door 12 near the pillar accommodating cavity 113 and the pillar 11 to change less when the rear door 12 is opened or closed, facilitating the connection between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21.

[0067] The temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 are specifically connected through a wire 22. One end of the wire 22 is connected to the temperature detector 20, and the other end is connected to the controller 21. The wire 22 extends from the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 to the rear door 12. In order to allow the wire 22 to pass smoothly, a wire threading opening 1112 is provided on the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 and the rear door 12. The wire 22 can pass out of the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 through the wire threading opening 1112 and pass into the rear door 12 through the wire threading opening 1112.

[0068] The wire threading opening 1112 on the vehicle column accommodating cavity 113 can be set on the side panel 1111, or on the inner panel 1113. The wire threading opening 1112 can be a through hole that directly penetrates the side panel 1111 or the inner panel 1113. When the wire threading opening 1112 is formed on the side panel 1111, it can also be formed by cutting a notch at the edge of the side panel 1111 away from one end of the side panel 1111 when manufacturing the side panel 1111. When the cover panel 112 is connected to the side panel 1111, the notch between the cover panel 112 and the side panel 1111 forms the wire threading opening 1112 for routing wires.

[0069] The wire 22 extends from the pillar cavity 113 and then into the rear door 12. The wire 22 is exposed outside the pillar cavity 113 and the structure outside the rear door 12, which not only affects the appearance but also creates the risk of accidental contact and damage to the wire 22. For casement doors, a hinged connection structure is provided between the rear door 12 and the vehicle body 10. The hinged connection structure pivotally connects the rear door 12 to the vehicle body 10. A hinged structure generally comprises two relatively rotatable bodies and a central axis that pivotally connects the two bodies. The two relatively rotatable bodies can be connected to the vehicle body 10 and the rear door 12, respectively.

[0070] In one practical implementation, passages can be provided on both rotating bodies and the central axis. The pillar accommodating cavity 113 and the threading opening 1112 on the rear door 12 are positioned adjacent to the two rotating bodies, and the threading openings 1112 can communicate with the threading passages on the corresponding bodies. After exiting the threading openings 1112 on the pillar accommodating cavity 113, the wires 22 can be threaded into the three threading passages of the hinge structure and then into the rear door 12 through the threading opening 1112. This reduces exposure of the wires 22 and helps protect them.

[0071] It should be noted that the temperature detector 20 is arranged in the pillar accommodating cavity 113, and the controller 21 is arranged in the rear door 12. The temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 are connected by wiring. The wiring will inevitably extend from the inside of the pillar accommodating cavity 113, then pass through the rear door 12 and enter the rear door 12, and finally connect to the controller 21. In order to ensure that the wiring distance is as short as possible, the temperature detector 20 is set at the connection position of the pillar accommodating cavity 113 close to the rear door 12 and the vehicle body 10.

[0072] It is worth mentioning that the electrochromic window 121 can slide up and down in the rear door 12, so that the electrochromic window 121 includes an open state and a closed state. A window accommodating cavity is provided in the door. When the electrochromic window 121 is in the open state, the electrochromic window 121 can be accommodated in the window accommodating cavity, and the controller 21 is also located in the window accommodating cavity.

[0073] Exemplarily, the controller 21 is fixed to the bottom of the electrochromic window 121 , and the controller 21 can move up and down with the electrochromic window 121 . In this way, as the controller 21 moves, the distance between the controller 21 and the temperature detector 20 will change.

[0074] When the rear door 12 is in the open state, the distance between the controller 21 and the temperature detector is greater than the distance between the controller 21 and the temperature detector when the rear door 12 is closed. In other words, when the rear door 12 is open, the distance between the temperature detector and the controller 21 is greater. In order to ensure that the wire 22 connecting the temperature detector and the controller 21 is not pulled during the opening and closing process of the rear door 12, the length of the wire 22 is set to be greater than the distance between the controller 21 and the temperature detector when the rear door 12 is open. In this way, even if the distance between the temperature detector and the controller 21 reaches the maximum value during the movement of the rear door 12, the wire 22 will not be pulled, which is beneficial for preventing the wire 22 from being broken.

[0075] In some feasible embodiments, a winding structure is further provided in the window accommodating cavity or the pillar accommodating cavity 113, and the wire 22 is connected to the winding structure. The length of the wire 22 is greater than the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 to prevent the wire 22 from being pulled. When the wire 22 is longer, the middle position thereof will be relatively loose, and entanglement may occur.

[0076] By providing a reeling structure, the wire 22 can be reeled onto the reeling structure to avoid the problem of the wire 22 being entangled. It should be noted that when the wire 22 is reeled onto the reeling structure, when the rear door 12 moves and the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 increases, part of the structure of the wire 22 can be detached from the reeling structure to adapt to the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21. When the rear door 12 moves and the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 decreases, the wire 22 can be actively re-reeled due to the automatic reeling function of the reeling structure. When the electrochromic window 121 switches between the open state and the closed state, the reeling structure is used to reel in or unreel the connecting wire between the controller 21 and the temperature detector 20.

[0077] In one embodiment, the controller 21 can also be fixed to the inner wall of the window receiving cavity. In this case, the controller 21 is separated from the electrochromic window 121. To prevent contact between the electrochromic window 121 and the controller 21, the controller 21 is positioned on the rear door 12 away from the window, specifically at the bottom end of the rear door 12. To further reduce wiring distance, the controller 21 is positioned on the end of the rear door 12 near where it connects to the vehicle body 10.

[0078] In some feasible embodiments, a winding structure is provided in the window receiving cavity, and when the electrochromic window 121 switches between the open state and the closed state, the winding structure is used to wind up or unwind the connecting line between the controller 21 and the electrochromic window 121.

[0079] In order to achieve the winding function of the above-mentioned winding structure, the winding structure of the present application can be configured as a structure similar to a tape measure, which mainly has four components, namely a shell (not shown in the figure), a central shaft fixed to the shell (not shown in the figure), a rotating member rotating around the central shaft (not shown in the figure), and a coil spring (not shown in the figure) connected between the central shaft and the rotating member. Initially, the wire 22 is divided into two parts with its center as the dividing point. Both parts are wound on the rotating member, and the winding directions of the two parts are opposite. The two ends of the wire 22 extend from the outside of the shell. When the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 increases, the wire 22 is pulled away from the rotating member, and the rotating member rotates. At this time, the coil spring is wound, providing a rotational force for the rotating member to restore it to its original state. When the distance between the temperature detector 20 and the controller 21 decreases, the rotational force provided by the coil spring drives the rotating member to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby realizing the function of automatically winding the wire 22. By setting up the winding structure, the function of automatically winding the wire 22 can be achieved, so that the wire 22 can be stored in an orderly manner.

[0080] In one embodiment, the temperature detector 20 may also be arranged in an area outside the vehicle column accommodating cavity 113 in the window frame, for example, Figure 1 As shown, the pillar accommodating cavity 113 is arranged on the left side of the electrochromic window 121, and the temperature detector 20 can also be arranged on the upper part, lower part or right side of the electrochromic window 121, that is, corresponding to the upper part, lower part or right side of the window frame respectively.

[0081] In one embodiment, the electrochromic window 121 may also be a front windshield, and the temperature detector 20 is fixed to the window frame of the front windshield or the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 of the A-pillar.

[0082] In one embodiment, the electrochromic window 121 may also be a rear windshield, and the temperature detector 20 is fixed to the window frame of the rear windshield or the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 of the C-pillar.

[0083] In one embodiment, the electrochromic window 121 may also be a skylight located on the roof, and the temperature detector 20 may be fixed to the window frame of the skylight, or the temperature detector 20 may be fixed to the vehicle pillar accommodating cavity 113 of the A-pillar, B-pillar or C-pillar.
