Detailed Implementation

[0024] The specific embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0025] It should be noted that all actions involving the acquisition of signals, information, or data in this disclosure are carried out in compliance with the relevant data protection laws and policies of the country where the location is situated, and with authorization from the owner of the relevant device.

[0026] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "up," "down," "left," and "right" generally refer to the upper, lower, left, and right positions within the space where the display system is in use. "Inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer positions relative to the outline of the component or structure itself. Furthermore, it should be noted that terms such as "first" and "second" are used to distinguish one element from another and do not indicate sequence or importance. Additionally, in the description with reference to the accompanying drawings, the same reference numerals in different drawings denote the same elements.

[0027] According to a first aspect of this disclosure, a display system is provided, with reference to... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the display system includes a glass 1, a display device 2, and a reflective structure 3. The display device 2 is used to emit light that can form a preset image onto the glass 1. The reflective structure 3 is disposed on the light emission path of the display device 2 so that the reflective structure 3 can receive the light emitted by the display device 2 and reflect it to the glass 1. At least one of the display device 2 and the reflective structure 3 is movable relative to the other so as to change the position of the preset image relative to the glass 1.

[0028] Through the above-described technical solution, namely the display system provided in this disclosure, the display system arranges the reflective structure 3 on the light-emitting path of the display device 2 so that the reflective structure 3 can receive the light emitted by the display device 2 and reflect it onto the glass 1 to form a preset image. Furthermore, at least one of the display device 2 and the reflective structure 3 is configured to be movable relative to the other so as to change the position of the preset image relative to the glass 1. With this arrangement, by adaptively adjusting the display position of the preset image on the glass 1, the needs of drivers or passengers of different heights, different sitting postures, and different usage habits to clearly observe preset images of driving-related information such as vehicle speed, range, and navigation can be met, thereby improving driving safety and user experience.

[0029] It should be noted that this disclosure does not specifically limit the structure of the display device 2. Those skilled in the art can select any suitable optical imaging device in the field according to actual application needs. For example, the display device 2 can be a head-up display device. Its purpose is to emit light that can form a preset image onto the glass 1 through the display device 2, so as to realize preset images of driving-related information such as vehicle speed, range, and navigation that can be observed by the driver or passenger.

[0030] In addition, in some exemplary application scenarios, the glass 1 mentioned above can be, for example, the windshield of a vehicle. This arrangement allows the display device 2 to reflect driving-related information such as vehicle speed, range, and navigation onto the windshield in front of the driver's line of sight via the aforementioned reflective structure 3. By adaptively adjusting the display position of the preset image on the windshield, it is possible to ensure that drivers of different heights, sitting postures, and usage habits can clearly observe the image information, thereby improving driving safety and user experience.

[0031] Of course, it should be noted that the specific embodiment of the glass 1 as the windshield of a vehicle is exemplary. In other application scenarios, the glass 1 may also be other transparent windows capable of displaying images, and this disclosure does not specifically limit it.

[0032] In some implementations, reference Figure 4 As shown, the display system may also include a flipping device 4. At least one of the display device 2 and the reflective structure 3 is connected to the flipping device 4. The flipping device 4 is used to drive the connected display device 2 or the reflective structure 3 to rotate, so as to change the position of the preset image relative to the glass 1, so as to satisfy the purpose of allowing users of different heights, different sitting postures and different usage habits (such as drivers or passengers) to clearly observe the preset image on the glass 1.

[0033] The flipping device 4 can be arranged in any suitable manner according to actual application requirements. For example, in some embodiments, refer to... Figures 2 to 4As shown, the flipping device 4 may include a first flipping device 410 and a second flipping device 420. The second flipping device 420 is disposed on the first flipping device 410 and is drivenly connected to the reflective structure 3 to change the height position of the preset image relative to the glass 1 in the vehicle's height direction. The first flipping device 410 drives the second flipping device 420 and the reflective structure 3 to rotate synchronously to change the lateral position of the preset image relative to the glass 1 in the vehicle's width direction. This arrangement, through the first flipping device 410 and the second flipping device 420, drives the reflective structure 3 to move relative to the display device 2, thereby changing the height position of the preset image relative to the glass 1 in the vehicle's height direction and the lateral position in the vehicle's width direction. This achieves the goal of allowing users of different heights, different sitting postures, and different usage habits (such as drivers or passengers) to clearly observe the preset image on the glass 1. This disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0034] Among them, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first flipping device 410 may include a rotating base 411 and a first driving member 412. The first driving member 412 is drivenly connected to the rotating base 411 to drive the rotating base 411 to rotate about a first pivot axis. The second flipping device 420 includes a bracket 421 and a second driving member 422. The bracket 421 is disposed on the rotating base 411, and the reflective structure 3 is disposed on the bracket 421 and drivenly connected to the second driving member 422 to drive the reflective structure 3 to rotate about a second pivot axis, wherein the second pivot axis is perpendicular to the first pivot axis. By rotating the base 411 around the first pivot axis, the reflective structure 3 can be flipped left and right relative to the display device 2, so that the preset image can be adaptively moved left and right on the glass 1 in the width direction of the vehicle. Furthermore, by driving the reflective structure 3 around the second pivot axis through the second driving member 422, the reflective structure 3 can be flipped up and down relative to the display device 2, so that the preset image can be adaptively moved up and down on the glass 1 in the height direction of the vehicle, thereby changing the position of the preset image relative to the glass 1. The overall structure is simple and easy to install and operate.

[0035] It should be noted that the range of motion of the second driving member 422 driving the reflective structure 3 to rotate around the second pivot axis, i.e., the vertical movement distance of the preset image relative to the glass 1 in the height direction of the vehicle, is not specifically limited in this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can adapt it according to actual application requirements. For example, the extreme position of the preset image moving downward relative to the glass 1 in the height direction of the vehicle can be designed to ensure that the lowest position of the eye box (not shown) can see the entire preset image, while the extreme position of the preset image moving upward relative to the glass 1 in the height direction of the vehicle can be designed to ensure that the upper edge of the preset image seen at the highest position of the eye box does not exceed, for example, the overlapping area of ​​the first glass layer 110, the second glass layer 120, and the shielding layer 130 of the windshield. The vertical movement distance of the preset image relative to the glass 1 in the height direction of the vehicle can be referenced to, for example, Figure 2 The distance by which the preset image (e.g., virtual image 5) shown moves from the solid line position to the dashed line position is not limited to this.

[0036] Furthermore, the range of motion of the rotating base 411 driving the reflective structure 3 to rotate around the first pivot axis, i.e., the left and right movement distance of the preset image relative to the glass 1 in the width direction of the vehicle, is not specifically limited in this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can adapt it according to actual application requirements. For example, the extreme positions of the preset image moving left or right relative to the glass 1 in the width direction of the vehicle can be designed to ensure that when there are multiple display devices 2, the preset images formed on the glass 1 by adjacent display devices 2 do not overlap. The left and right movement distance of the preset image relative to the glass 1 in the width direction of the vehicle can be referenced to, for example… Figure 3 The distance by which the preset image (e.g., virtual image 5) shown moves from the solid line position to the dashed line position is not limited to this.

[0037] Alternatively, in some implementations, such as Figure 4As shown, the first flipping device 410 may further include a mounting platform 413, and the first driving member 412 includes a first motor 4121 mounted on the mounting platform 413. The rotating base 411 is rotatably mounted on the mounting platform 413 around a first pivot axis. The output shaft of the first motor 4121 is connected to the rotating base 411. For example, the output shaft of the first motor 4121 can be directly fixed to the bottom wall of the rotating base 411. The output shaft of the first motor 4121 is the first pivot axis. This arrangement allows the rotating base 411 to be directly driven to rotate around the first pivot axis by the first motor 4121, so that the preset image can be adaptively moved left and right on the glass 1 in the width direction of the vehicle. The structure is relatively compact and the transmission structure is simple, with high reliability and easy installation and preparation. Of course, it should be noted that the specific embodiment in which the output shaft of the first motor 4121 is directly fixed to the bottom wall of the rotating base 411 is exemplary. In other alternative embodiments, the output shaft of the first motor 4121 may also be connected to the rotating base 411 by means of, for example, a gear transmission structure. This disclosure does not specifically limit such variations, and those skilled in the art can design them adaptively according to actual application needs.

[0038] In addition, in some implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second driving member 422 may include a second motor 4221. The reflective structure 3 is rotatably connected to the bracket 421 via a rotating shaft (not shown). The second motor 4221 is driven to the rotating shaft to drive the reflective structure 3 to rotate around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft. The rotation axis of the rotating shaft is the second pivot axis. This arrangement is so that the second motor 4221 can drive the reflective structure 3 to rotate, so that the preset image can be adaptively moved up and down on the glass 1 in the height direction of the vehicle.

[0039] The second motor 4221 can be connected to the rotating shaft via a transmission structure (e.g., gear transmission or worm gear transmission), or the second motor 4221 can be directly connected to the rotating shaft. This disclosure does not specifically limit such variations. Those skilled in the art can design them adaptively according to actual application needs. The purpose is to enable the second motor 4221 to drive the reflective structure 3 to rotate around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft, so that the preset image can be adaptively moved up and down on the glass 1 in the height direction of the vehicle.

[0040] It should be noted that this disclosure does not specifically limit the external shape and structure of the rotating base 411, the bracket 421 and the mounting platform 413, and those skilled in the art can design them adaptively according to actual application needs.

[0041] In some embodiments, the reflective structure 3 may include a curved reflector 310. This arrangement, by placing the curved reflector 310 in the light-emitting path of the display device 2, allows the reflector to receive the light emitted by the display device 2 and reflect it onto the glass 1, thus magnifying the preset image formed on the glass 1. Furthermore, the curved reflector 310 reduces the possibility of distortion during image formation on the glass 1, ensuring that the user can clearly and accurately observe the image information, thereby improving driving safety and user experience. Additionally, since the curved reflector 310 can magnify the image, it allows for a smaller display device 2 structure when forming the same size preset image. This ensures the user can clearly and accurately observe the image information while saving space on the display device 2, providing greater design flexibility for the overall vehicle design.

[0042] It should be noted that this disclosure does not specifically limit the specific curved shape and angle of the curved reflector 310. Those skilled in the art can design it adaptively according to actual application needs. The purpose is to enable the image to be magnified and the possibility of distortion when imaging on the glass 1 to be reduced through the setting of the curved reflector 310, so as to ensure that the user can clearly and accurately observe the image information.

[0043] In addition, the display device 2 and the reflective structure 3 can be adapted to be installed in, for example, the center console (not shown) of a vehicle, so as to make better use of the interior space of the vehicle and avoid occupying too much cabin space. The specific connection method and specific installation position of the display device 2 and the reflective structure 3 to the center console of the vehicle are not specifically limited in this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can design them adaptably according to actual application needs. The purpose is to enable the reflective structure 3 to receive the light emitted by the display device 2 and reflect it to the glass 1 to form a preset image.

[0044] Alternatively, in some implementations, reference is made to Figure 2 As shown, the glass 1 may include a first glass layer 110, a second glass layer 120, and a shielding layer 130. The first glass layer 110 and the second glass layer 120 are connected face to face, and there is a gap between the first glass layer 110 and the second glass layer 120. The shielding layer 130 is located in the gap. The overlapping area of ​​the first glass layer 110, the second glass layer 120, and the shielding layer 130 is used to form a preset image. With this arrangement, due to the setting of the shielding layer 130, the light reflected by the reflective structure 3 onto the glass 1 can be absorbed, which helps to reduce the generation of ghosting, improve the display effect, and improve the image display clarity. Furthermore, due to the setting of the shielding layer 130, a clear boundary can be provided for the displayed image, which helps to enhance the visual effect, improve driving safety, and enhance the user experience.

[0045] It should be noted that the aforementioned shielding layer 130 can be prepared by printing with opaque or light-absorbing materials such as ink, and this disclosure does not specifically limit it.

[0046] Additionally, in some implementations, references Figure 2 As shown, the shielding layer 130 can extend along the width direction of the vehicle. For example, the shielding layer 130 can extend from one side of the windshield to the other side along the width direction of the vehicle to increase the image display area on the glass 1, thereby achieving a wide field of view and richer image information display, and improving the user's driving experience.

[0047] Furthermore, in some implementations, references Figures 1 to 3 As shown, there can be multiple display devices 2. For example, there can be three display devices 2, and these multiple display devices 2 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the vehicle. Each display device 2 emits light onto the glass 1 through a corresponding reflective structure 3 to form multiple preset images on the glass 1. This can cover a wide field of view, providing a more comprehensive display of image information, allowing users to obtain image information from different angles, thus improving the user's driving experience. Furthermore, by rotating the reflective structure 3 relative to the display device 2 left and right, the corresponding preset images can be adaptively moved left and right on the glass 1 along the width direction of the vehicle. This allows for the formation of continuous and uninterrupted images in the image display area on the glass 1. For example, two image display areas formed by two display devices 2 can be joined together to form a single display area, improving driving safety and user experience.

[0048] According to a second aspect of this disclosure, a vehicle is provided that includes the display system provided in the first aspect. Furthermore, the vehicle also possesses all the beneficial effects of the display system provided in the first aspect, which will not be elaborated further herein.

[0049] The preferred embodiments of this disclosure have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this disclosure is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of this disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of this disclosure.

[0050] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. To avoid unnecessary repetition, this disclosure will not describe the various possible combinations separately.

[0051] Furthermore, various different embodiments of this disclosure can be combined in any way, as long as they do not violate the spirit of this disclosure, they should also be regarded as the content disclosed in this disclosure.
