[0030] The window breaker can quickly break the vehicle window glass when the vehicle falls into water, catches fire, or the vehicle door cannot be opened, providing an escape outlet for the driver and passengers. In the related art, the window breaking function can be achieved by generating an instantaneous impact force through a mechanical structure, but the mechanical structure usually needs to be manually operated or started, which affects the operation convenience, reliability, and use experience of the window breaker.

[0031] The present application provides a window breaker applied to a vehicle. Figure 1 is a structure schematic diagram of a window breaker and a vehicle window in an example embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1As shown, the window breaker 1 comprises a controller 13, a driving motor 12 and a window breaking mechanism 11, the controller 13 is in conductive connection with the driving motor 12 to send a control signal to the driving motor 12. The window breaking mechanism 11 comprises a trigger, the driving motor 12 is in transmission connection with the trigger to drive the trigger to form a trigger stroke from an initial position to a trigger position when receiving the control signal.

[0032] Since the above-mentioned window breaker 1 comprises the controller 13, the driving motor 12 and the window breaking mechanism 11, the controller 13 is in conductive connection with the driving motor 12, and the driving motor 12 is in transmission connection with the trigger of the window breaking mechanism 11, so that the trigger can be driven to form a trigger stroke from an initial position to a trigger position when the driving motor 12 receives the control signal of the controller 13, and the control of the trigger of the window breaking mechanism 11 is realized through the controller 13 and the driving motor 12, thereby improving the operation convenience and control intelligence of the window breaker 1.

[0033] In some embodiments, the trigger in transmission connection with the driving motor 12 can be a limiting structure 114. The window breaking mechanism 11 comprises a shell 111, a bursting chamber 112, a first needle 113 and an elastic connecting piece 14, the first needle 113, the elastic connecting piece 14 and the bursting chamber 112 are located in the shell 111, and the elastic connecting piece 14 is connected with the shell 111 and the first needle 113 respectively. When the limiting structure 114 is in the initial position, the limiting structure 114 is in limiting cooperation with the first needle 113. When the limiting structure 114 is in the trigger position, the limiting structure 114 is separated from the first needle 113, so that the elastic connecting piece 14 pulls the first needle 113 to pierce the bursting chamber 112. By driving the limiting structure 114, the limiting of the first needle 113 of the window breaking mechanism 11 can be realized, and when the limiting structure 114 deviates from the limiting position, the displacement of the first needle 113 to pierce the bursting chamber 112 is driven by the elastic connecting piece 14, and the driving motor 12 driving the limiting structure 114 can simplify the structure setting of the driving mechanism, and avoid the problem of complex structure of the window breaking mechanism 11 caused by the interference between the driving direction of the motor and the movement direction of the first needle 113.

[0034] In the above-mentioned embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 The first needle 113 can comprise a needle end and a limiting end opposite to the needle end, the limiting end is located outside the shell 111 and is provided with a limiting gap 1131. When the limiting structure 114 is in the initial position, the limiting structure 114 is clamped and fixed in the limiting gap 1131, and the limiting structure 114 is connected with the driving motor 12 through a pull wire to be pulled to the trigger position deviating from the limiting gap 1131 when the driving motor 12 works. Through the clamping of the limiting gap 1131 and the limiting structure 114, the structure setting is simplified, and the limiting reliability of the limiting structure 114 and the first needle 113 in the limiting cooperation is ensured.

[0035] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the limiting structure 114 can be a rod-shaped structure, one end of the rod-shaped structure is provided with a pull ring, the pull ring can be connected to the motor through a pull wire, when the motor is started, the rod-shaped structure can be pulled away from the above-mentioned limiting gap 1131. Further, the other end of the rod-shaped structure can be rotationally connected with a mounting seat on the window breaking mechanism 11, to support the rod-shaped structure, so that the rod-shaped structure rotates around the mounting seat when subjected to a pulling force.

[0036] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 , the vehicle door 3 includes a third area 31 and a fourth area 32 adjacent to the third area 31, the controller 13 is assembled in the third area 31, and the drive motor 12 is assembled in the fourth area 32.

[0037] In some embodiments, the trigger connected in transmission with the drive motor 12 can be the first thimble 113 of the window breaking mechanism 11. The window breaking mechanism 11 includes a burst chamber 112, when the first thimble 113 is in the initial position, the first thimble 113 is away from the burst chamber 112, and when the first thimble 113 is in the trigger position, the first thimble 113 pierces the burst chamber 112. The first thimble 113 is used as the trigger, which is directly driven by the drive motor 12, simplifying the structure of the window breaking mechanism 11, reducing the transmission cost, and also helping to improve the stroke reliability of the first thimble 113.

[0038] In the above-mentioned embodiments, the first thimble 113 can be provided with a first threaded structure, and the output end of the drive motor 12 is provided with a second threaded structure, the first threaded structure and the second threaded structure are in transmission cooperation, to drive the first thimble 113 to move from the initial position to the trigger position, simplifying the transmission mechanism and improving the transmission reliability.

The window breaking mechanism 11 is arranged adjacent to the drive motor 12, which can shorten the transmission path, reduce the space occupation caused by transmission, and improve the transmission reliability.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the window breaking mechanism 11 can further include a second ejector pin located at least partially in the bursting chamber 112, and the second ejector pin is forced to generate a stroke of impacting the vehicle window 2 when the bursting chamber 112 is pierced. In the process of using the window breaker 1, the driving motor 12 is started after receiving the driving control signal, and the trigger is moved from the initial position to the trigger position, and the bursting of the bursting chamber 112 causes the second ejector pin to generate a stroke of impacting the vehicle window 2. Wherein, the stroke of the trigger can be a linear stroke or a curved stroke, which can be set according to the specific scene, and the present application does not limit this.

The vehicle door 3 includes an armrest structure, the connecting end 141 is connected to the trigger, and the manually operated end 142 is arranged on the armrest structure. By operating the manually operated end 142, the trigger can be moved from the initial position to the trigger position, thereby manually triggering the window breaker 1 to work. When the trigger is electrically driven and manually driven, the working reliability of the window breaker 1 can be improved, and the situation that the window breaker 1 cannot be triggered due to damage of the electrical drive can be avoided.

[0042] The present application further provides a vehicle, which includes the above-mentioned window breaker 1.

[0043] Since the window breaker 1 includes the controller 13, the driving motor 12 and the window breaking mechanism 11, the controller 13 is electrically connected to the driving motor 12. The driving motor 12 is drivingly connected to the trigger of the window breaking mechanism 11, so as to drive the trigger to form a trigger stroke from the initial position to the trigger position when the driving motor 12 receives the control signal of the controller 13. The controller 13 and the driving motor 12 realize the control of the trigger of the window breaking mechanism 11, and improve the operation convenience and control intelligence of the window breaker 1.
