[0033] The embodiments of this application will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0034] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0035] As described in the background section, in order to promote the development of intelligent vehicles and meet the personalized needs of users, the development of information display and human-machine interaction functions of headlights has become a research focus for those skilled in the art.

[0036] Based on the above, this application provides a vehicle lighting module, such as... Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a vehicle lighting module provided in this application. The vehicle lighting module includes a vehicle lighting unit 100 and a display unit 200.

[0037] The headlight unit 100 includes a light-emitting surface 110. The light-emitting surface 110 includes a first light-emitting surface 111 and a second light-emitting surface 112 arranged along a first direction. A gap exists between the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112, and the projection of the first light-emitting surface 111 along the first direction surrounds the projection of the second light-emitting surface 112 along the first direction. The first direction is parallel to the propagation direction of the headlight beam; that is, the light-emitting surface 110 includes the second light-emitting surface 112 and the first light-emitting surface 111 arranged sequentially along the headlight beam propagation direction, and the direction in which the second light-emitting surface 112 points towards the first light-emitting surface 111 is the headlight beam propagation direction.

[0038] The display unit 200 includes a transparent screen 210, which is located between a first light-emitting surface 111 and a second light-emitting surface 112. Specifically, the second light-emitting surface 112, the transparent screen 210, and the first light-emitting surface 111 are arranged along a first direction, meaning they are arranged sequentially in the direction of the vehicle headlight beam transmission. The projection of the first light-emitting surface 111 along the first direction surrounds the projection of the transparent screen 210 along the first direction, and the projection of the transparent screen 210 along the first direction covers the projection of the second light-emitting surface 112 along the first direction. In other words, when viewed from the direction pointing from the first light-emitting surface 111 to the second light-emitting surface 112, the first light-emitting surface 111 surrounds the transparent screen 210 and the second light-emitting surface 112, and the transparent screen 210 covers the second light-emitting surface 112. Based on this, for the headlight products of this headlight module, the middle area of ​​the headlight shape can be a stepped recessed structure, and the light surface and transparent screen can be arranged in the recessed area as needed.

[0039] The headlight unit 100 also includes a light source. The headlight unit 100 responds to control commands to control the light source to output a headlight beam. The headlight beam is emitted through at least one of a first light-emitting surface 111 and a second light-emitting surface 112; that is, the headlight beam is emitted through the first light-emitting surface 111, or the headlight beam is emitted through the second light-emitting surface 112, or the headlight beam is emitted through both the first and second light-emitting surfaces 111 and 112. Based on the headlight unit 100 responding to control commands, the display unit 200 responds to control commands to control the transparent screen 210 to display a preset image, thereby realizing the headlight function corresponding to the control commands. It should be noted that the portion of the headlight beam emitted through the second light-emitting surface 112 specifically transmits through the second light-emitting surface 112 and the transparent screen 210 sequentially.

[0040] As can be seen from the above, when realizing the vehicle light function corresponding to the control command, the vehicle light unit 100 responds to the control command to control the light source to output the vehicle light beam. The vehicle light beam is emitted through at least one of the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112. Furthermore, based on the vehicle light unit 100 responding to the control command, the display unit 200 also responds to the control command to control the transparent screen 210 to display a preset image, so as to realize the vehicle light function corresponding to the control command. In other words, the vehicle light product corresponding to the vehicle light module provided in this application realizes the vehicle light function corresponding to the control command by cooperating with at least one of the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112 with the transparent screen 210. As described above, when viewed along the direction from the first light-emitting surface 111 to the second light-emitting surface 112, the first light-emitting surface 111 surrounds the transparent screen 210 and the second light-emitting surface 112, and the transparent screen 210 covers the second light-emitting surface 112. That is to say, the first light-emitting surface 111, the transparent screen 210, and the second light-emitting surface 112 are not on the same plane, but are located on different planes in the direction of the headlight beam transmission. Therefore, to realize the headlight function corresponding to the control command, the light-emitting surface 110 and the preset image are not on the same plane. Thus, the headlight product corresponding to this headlight module can realize the three-dimensional display effect of the headlight function, that is, it can present a spatial floating display effect, giving users a novel sensory experience. Meanwhile, the first light-emitting surface 111, the transparent screen 210, and the second light-emitting surface 112 are not on the same plane. The headlight shape can be a stepped recessed structure. Furthermore, the display screen of the display unit 200 is a transparent screen. Therefore, the stepped recessed headlight shape can be observed through the transparent screen 210, so that even if the headlight is not lit, it can provide users with a better sensory experience.

[0041] In addition, since the vehicle lighting products corresponding to this vehicle lighting module achieve vehicle lighting functions through the cooperation between the light-emitting surface 110 and the transparent screen 210, different usage scenarios can be formed by flexibly cooperating with different display content of the transparent screen 210 and the light-emitting surface 110, and the application prospects are broad.

[0042] Specifically, in one embodiment of this application, when a user starts or stops the vehicle, the headlight unit 100 can control the light source to output a headlight beam in response to the control command to start or stop the vehicle. The headlight beam is emitted through at least one of the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112, for example, the headlight beam is emitted through the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112. The display unit 200, in response to the control command to start or stop the vehicle, controls the transparent screen 210 to display a preset image, thereby realizing functions such as information display and human-computer interaction. Specifically, for example, when a user starts the vehicle, the headlight unit 100 can control the light source to output a headlight beam in response to the control command to start the vehicle. The headlight beam is emitted through the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112. The display unit 200, in response to the control command to start the vehicle, controls the transparent screen 210 to display a welcome image, for example, the transparent screen 210 displays "HELLO". Figure 2 As shown. For example, when the user turns off the vehicle, the headlight unit 100 can control the light source to output a headlight beam in response to the control command to turn off the vehicle. The headlight beam is emitted through the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112, and the display unit 200 controls the transparent screen 210 to display a farewell screen in response to the control command to start the vehicle.

[0043] In addition to the above, transparent screens can also display other images in response to control commands, such as a starry sky (e.g., Figure 3 As shown), grids, geometric patterns, etc., are used in conjunction with the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112 to achieve a personalized display effect for the vehicle lights. It should be noted that this application does not limit the display image of the transparent screen; it depends on the specific circumstances.

[0044] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in one embodiment of this application, in order to diversify the display effects when the light-emitting surface 110 and the transparent screen 210 realize the vehicle light function, the first light-emitting surface 111 includes at least one sub-light-emitting surface arranged along a first direction, and the second light-emitting surface 112 includes at least one sub-light-emitting surface arranged along the first direction. Specifically, there are gaps between at least one sub-light-emitting surface of the first light-emitting surface 111, and the diameter of at least one sub-light-emitting surface of the first light-emitting surface 111 gradually increases along the transmission direction of the vehicle light beam, that is, the first light-emitting surface 111 encloses multiple sub-light-emitting surfaces, there are gaps between the multiple sub-light-emitting surfaces, and the diameter of the sub-light-emitting surfaces gradually increases along the transmission direction of the vehicle light beam. The second light-emitting surface 112 has gaps between at least one sub-light-emitting surface, and the diameter of at least one sub-light-emitting surface of the second light-emitting surface 112 gradually increases along the transmission direction of the headlight beam. That is, the second light-emitting surface 112 includes multiple sub-light-emitting surfaces, there are gaps between the multiple sub-light-emitting surfaces, and the diameter of the sub-light-emitting surfaces gradually increases along the transmission direction of the headlight beam.

[0045] As can be seen from the above, the first light-emitting surface 111 includes multiple sub-light-emitting surfaces, and the second light-emitting surface 112 includes multiple sub-light-emitting surfaces. Therefore, when at least one of the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112 is combined with the transparent screen 210, there are multiple possible combinations of the light-emitting surface 110 and the transparent screen 210, thereby achieving a diversification of the display effect when the vehicle lights function.

[0046] Based on the above, in a specific embodiment of this application, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first light-emitting surface 111 includes a sub-light-emitting surface, denoted as the first sub-light-emitting surface 1111, and the second light-emitting surface 112 includes two sub-light-emitting surfaces, denoted as the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121 and the third sub-light-emitting surface 1122.

[0047] In this embodiment, the first sub-light-emitting surface 1111, the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121, and the third sub-light-emitting surface 1122 are all C-shaped semi-enclosed structures. The projection of the first sub-light-emitting surface 1111 along the first direction surrounds the projection of the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121 along the first direction, and the projection of the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121 along the first direction surrounds the projection of the third sub-light-emitting surface 1122 along the first direction. It should be noted that this application does not limit the shapes of the first sub-light-emitting surface 1111, the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121, and the third sub-light-emitting surface 1122. The shapes are merely exemplified based on the conventional shapes of existing automotive lights. In other embodiments of this application, the first sub-light-emitting surface 1111, the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121, and the third sub-light-emitting surface 1122 can be other shapes, depending on the specific circumstances.

[0048] The transparent screen 210 is located between the first sub-light-emitting surface 1111 and the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121, and the projection of the transparent screen 210 along the first direction covers the projection of the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121 along the first direction, as well as the hollow area of ​​the second sub-light-emitting surface 1121.

[0049] Based on the above, in one embodiment of this application, the vehicle lamp unit 100 further includes a position lamp structure (not shown in the figure), and the first light-emitting surface 111 is the light-emitting surface of the position lamp structure. It should be noted that the position lamp structure refers to the optical structure in the vehicle lamp unit 100 that receives the vehicle lamp beam, makes the vehicle lamp beam meet the position lamp pattern, and emits it from the first light-emitting surface 111. This application does not limit the position lamp structure, and it depends on the specific situation.

[0050] If the control command enables the position light function, the headlight unit 100 responds to the control command and controls the light source to output the first headlight beam. The first headlight beam is emitted from the first light-emitting surface 111 through the position light structure. The display unit 200 responds to the control command and controls the transparent screen 210 to display the first preset image, so as to realize the position light function.

[0051] In another embodiment of this application, the vehicle lamp unit 100 further includes a position lamp structure, wherein the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112 are the light-emitting surfaces of the position lamp structure. As described above, the position lamp structure refers to the optical structure in the vehicle lamp unit 100 that receives the vehicle lamp beam and makes the vehicle lamp beam meet the position lamp light pattern, and emits it from the first light-emitting surface 111.

[0052] If the control command enables the position light function, the headlight unit 100 responds to the control command and controls the light source to output a second headlight beam. The second headlight beam is emitted from the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112 through the position light structure. The display unit 200 responds to the control command and controls the transparent screen 210 to display a second preset image, so as to realize the position light function.

[0053] Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of this application, the vehicle lamp unit 100 further includes an autonomous driving sign light structure, and the second light-emitting surface 112 is also the light-emitting surface of the autonomous driving sign light structure. It should be noted that the autonomous driving sign light structure refers to the optical structure in the vehicle lamp unit 100 that receives the vehicle lamp beam and makes the vehicle lamp beam conform to the light pattern of the autonomous driving sign light, and emits it from the first light-emitting surface 111. This application does not limit the autonomous driving sign light structure, and it depends on the specific situation.

[0054] If the control command enables the autonomous driving sign light function, the headlight unit 100 responds to the control command by controlling the light source to output a third headlight beam. This third headlight beam is emitted from the second light-emitting surface 112 through the autonomous driving sign light structure. The display unit 200 responds to the control command by controlling the transparent screen 210 to display a third preset image, thus realizing the autonomous driving sign light function. Specifically, if the control command enables the autonomous driving sign light function, the second light-emitting surface 112 is illuminated, displaying a blue-green lighting effect, while the transparent screen 210 displays a blue-green pattern, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the autonomous driving sign light, designed to achieve a three-dimensional floating lighting effect, is quite aesthetically pleasing.

[0055] As can be seen from the above, the first light-emitting surface 111 and the second light-emitting surface 112 can be configured as light-emitting surfaces with different vehicle lighting functions, such as position lights, autonomous driving sign lights, daytime running lights, etc., based on actual needs, so as to achieve different vehicle lighting functions in conjunction with the transparent screen 210 to meet different application scenarios. Therefore, the vehicle lighting module has strong practicality and broad application prospects.

[0056] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in one embodiment of this application, the transparent screen 210 has display pixels, and the display unit 200 responds to the control command to control the display pixels on the transparent screen 210 to display a preset image, so that the display image of the transparent screen 210 can be personalized and the preset image can be dynamically displayed, thereby improving the user experience.

[0057] Based on the above, the transparent screen 210 can be an LED display screen, such as a MINI-LED transparent display screen or an OLED transparent display screen. This application does not limit this, and it depends on the specific circumstances.

[0058] In another embodiment of this application, the transparent screen 210 has a preset pattern formed by laser engraving. The display unit 200 responds to a control command to illuminate the preset pattern on the transparent screen to display a preset image. Specifically, in this embodiment, the preset pattern on the transparent screen 210 is pre-engraved on the transparent screen 210 by laser engraving. In this case, the transparent screen can be transparent glass or a PMMA panel, etc.

[0059] For the aforementioned transparent screen, the display unit 200 responding to the control command to light up the preset pattern on the transparent screen can specifically be: lighting up the preset pattern by emitting light from the side wall of the transparent screen, so as to realize the vehicle light function corresponding to the control command.

[0060] Accordingly, this application also provides a vehicle light, which includes the vehicle light module described in any of the above embodiments.

[0061] In summary, this application provides a vehicle headlight module and a vehicle headlight. The headlight includes a headlight unit and a display unit. The headlight unit includes a light-emitting surface and a light source, and the display unit includes a transparent screen. The light-emitting surface includes a first light-emitting surface and a second light-emitting surface arranged along a first direction. The transparent screen is located between the first and second light-emitting surfaces, and the projection of the first light-emitting surface along the first direction surrounds the projection of the transparent screen along the first direction. The projection of the transparent screen along the first direction covers the projection of the second light-emitting surface along the first direction. The first direction is parallel to the transmission direction of the headlight beam; that is, the first light-emitting surface, the transparent screen, and the second light-emitting surface are not on the same plane, but are located on different planes along the transmission direction of the headlight beam.

[0062] When the headlights function corresponding to the control command is implemented, the headlight unit responds to the control command by controlling the light source to output a headlight beam. The headlight beam is emitted through at least one of the first and second light-emitting surfaces. Furthermore, based on the headlight unit's response to the control command, the display unit also responds to the control command by controlling the transparent screen to display a preset image, thus realizing the headlight function corresponding to the control command. Therefore, to realize the headlight function corresponding to the control command, the light-emitting surface and the preset image are not on the same plane. This allows the headlight module to achieve a three-dimensional display effect of the headlight function, that is, to present a spatial floating display effect, giving users a novel sensory experience.
