The interior trim component 22 is located in the second mounting portion 212.

[0053] The camera components include monocular and / or binocular cameras to meet different usage needs.

[0054] The interior components 22 include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following: a ceiling light 221 (e.g., a reading light), a microphone 222, and an electrical switch 223. In one embodiment of this application, the interior components 22 include a ceiling light 221, a microphone 222, and an electrical switch 223, thereby improving device integration.

[0055] Specifically, the camera assembly 20 provided in this application integrates a camera component and interior trim 22, which improves the integration of the equipment, thereby improving the compactness of the structure and optimizing the utilization of the vehicle interior space. Furthermore, since the camera assembly 20 integrates the camera component and interior trim 22, the camera component and interior trim 22 can share a single control panel, which optimizes the performance and efficiency of the equipment and reduces the equipment cost.

[0056] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4The second mounting part 212 has a color-separation groove 213 on the surface away from the frame, and the color-separation groove 213 is arranged around the interior trim 22.

[0057] The color separation groove 213 may be different from the color of other areas of the second mounting part 212, and / or the texture of the color separation groove 213 may be different from the texture of other areas of the second mounting part 212, thereby distinguishing the area where the interior part 22 is located from other areas on the camera device assembly 20, realizing differentiated design, improving the regional recognition of the interior part 22, and facilitating user operation.

[0058] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 3-5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the shield body provided in one embodiment of the present application from a certain perspective. The shield assembly 21 includes a bracket 214 and a shield body 215. The bracket 214 is used to fix to the inner surface of the windshield 10 of a vehicle; for example, the bracket 214 can be fixed to the inner surface of the windshield 10 of the vehicle by adhesive bonding. The shield body 215 includes a first engaging portion 2151 and a second engaging portion 2152 connected to each other; wherein the first engaging portion 2151 engages with the bracket 214 to form a first mounting portion 211, and the second engaging portion 2152 serves as a second mounting portion 212.

[0059] The first engaging portion 2151 and the second engaging portion 2152 can be a one-piece design or a detachable connection design. In this embodiment, the first engaging portion 2151 and the second engaging portion 2152 are one-piece designs, thereby reducing the number of parts, facilitating installation, and improving the integration of the device.

[0060] The first engaging part 2151 may be provided with a first connector on the surface near the bracket 214. The first connector may be a buckle (e.g., an A-type buckle), a magnetic component, or a threaded component. The bracket 214 is provided with a corresponding type of second connector. The cover body 215 is engaged and connected to the second connector on the bracket 214 through the first connector, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the bracket 214 and the cover body 215.

[0061] Specifically, the cover body 215 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the windshield 10 of the vehicle by means of the bracket 214, and the cover body 215 is engaged with the bracket 214, thereby fixing the cover assembly 21, the camera assembly and interior trim 22 located in the first mounting part 211 and the second mounting part 212 to the area of ​​the windshield 10 and / or the roof 40 near the windshield 10.

[0062] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 6 , Figure 6 for Figure 5The schematic diagram of the protective cover body from another perspective shows that the surface of the first engaging part 2151 facing the bracket 214 is higher than the surface of the second engaging part 2152 facing the bracket 214, thereby forming a first step part T at the connection between the first engaging part 2151 and the second engaging part 2152.

[0063] Specifically, since the windshield 10 and the roof 40 are not on the same horizontal plane, a second step (not shown in the figure) is formed at the connection between the windshield 10 and the roof 40. The first engaging part 2151 and the second engaging part 2152 are designed to form a first step T that matches the second step, thereby improving the aesthetics and compactness of the equipment.

[0064] In one embodiment, please continue to see Figure 6 The side of the first engaging part 2151 has a heat dissipation grille 2153 for dissipating heat from the components (such as the camera assembly, interior parts 22, etc.) inside the camera device assembly 20.

[0065] Specifically, the first engaging portion 2151 includes a first side and a second side disposed opposite to each other, and a third side facing away from the second engaging portion 2152. The first end of the first side and the first end of the second side are respectively connected to opposite ends of the third side, and the second end of the first side and the second end of the second side are connected to the second engaging portion 2152. A heat dissipation grille 2153 may be disposed on the first side, the second side, and / or the third side.

[0066] Among them, the heat dissipation grille 2153 can be a hidden heat dissipation grille. For example, the heat dissipation grille 2153 adopts a slanted louver structure, a slanted hole structure, etc., thereby improving its anti-see-through properties.

[0067] In this embodiment, the heat dissipation grille 2153 is disposed on the first side, the second side, and the third side, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area and improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0068] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The first engaging part 2151 also has a through hole H2. The camera assembly 20 also includes a rearview component 23, which includes a rearview mirror 231 and a connecting rod 232. The rearview mirror 231 is located on the side of the cover body 215 away from the bracket 214, so that the front row users can observe the road conditions behind. One end of the connecting rod 232 is connected to the rearview mirror 231, and the other end passes through the through hole H2 and is connected to the bracket 214, thereby fixing the rearview mirror 231.

[0069] Specifically, the rearview component 23 is also integrated into the camera assembly 20, which improves the integration of the equipment, thereby improving the compactness of the structure and optimizing the utilization of the interior space.

[0070] In one embodiment, please continue to combine Figure 3 and Figure 5 The protective cover assembly 21 also includes a first plug 216 and a second plug 217. The first plug 216 covers the port of the through hole H2 away from the bracket 214; the second plug 217 covers the port of the through hole H2 away from the bracket 214; wherein, the second plug 217 cooperates with the first plug 216 to seal the through hole H2 and surround the connecting rod 232.

[0071] Specifically, in order to facilitate the connection of the connecting rod 232 to the bracket 214 through the through hole H2, the diameter of the through hole H2 is set to be at least larger than the diameter of the connecting rod 232, so as to facilitate the connection of the connecting rod 232 through the through hole H2 to the bracket 214. In order to improve the aesthetics of the equipment, after the installation is completed, the through hole H2 can be sealed and the connecting rod 232 can be surrounded by the first plug 216 and the second plug 217.

[0072] In one embodiment, in order to improve the matching degree between the protective cover assembly 21 and the connecting rod 232, the edge of the first plug 216 is provided with a first notch H3, and the edge of the second plug 217 is provided with a second notch H4. The second plug 217 is embedded in the first notch H3. The edge of the first notch H3 and the second notch H4 cooperate to form a sleeve hole H5. The shape and size of the sleeve hole H5 are approximately the same as the shape and size of the connecting rod 232 installed at the position of the sleeve hole H5. The connecting rod 232 passes through the sleeve hole H5 and is connected to the bracket 214.

[0073] The above are merely embodiments of this application and do not limit the scope of this patent application.
