Embodiments for Carrying out the Invention
[0019] To facilitate understanding, first, terms related to the embodiments of this application will be described.
[0020] Plural: Refers to two or more numbers.
[0021] Connection: It should be understood in a broad sense. For example, when A and B are connected, it may mean that A and B are directly connected, or A and B may be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium.
[0022] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, specific embodiments of this application will be clearly described.
[0023] The dimming glass can realize the switching between the transparent and opaque states of the glass in various ways such as electric control, temperature control, light control, and pressure control. However, most of the mass-produced dimming glasses are electrically controlled dimming glasses. By dividing the area of the dimming glass, different patterns can be presented on the dimming glass. Currently, for the area-divided dimming glass, due to the unreasonable pattern setting, the problem of uneven dimming of the patterned glass is likely to occur. Specifically, in the divided partitions, if the channel width of one partition is insufficient, voltage drop may occur in the dimming of a single channel of an independent partition, resulting in uneven dimming.
[0024] Based on this, embodiments of the present application provide a patterned glass and a vehicle that can optimize the uniformity of pattern display of the area-divided dimming patterned glass and improve the user experience.
[0025] Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a vehicle 1000 according to an embodiment of the present application. The vehicle 1000 includes a patterned glass 100 and a vehicle body 200. The patterned glass 100 is connected to the vehicle body 200. Exemplarily, the patterned glass 100 may be a sunroof glass, a front glass, a rear glass, or a side glass of the vehicle 1000. However, in the embodiments of the present application, the specific position where the patterned glass 100 is connected to the vehicle body 200 is not limited.
[0026] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, only the vehicle 1000 to which the patterned glass 100 is applied is exemplified. In fact, the patterned glass 100 can also be applied to buildings and other uses. In the embodiments of the present application, the use of the patterned glass 100 is not limited.
[0027] Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the patterned glass 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. The patterned glass 100 can include an outer layer glass 10, an inner layer glass 20, a light control functional layer 30 provided between the outer layer glass 10 and the inner layer glass 20, a first conductive layer 40, a second conductive layer 50, and two adhesive layers 60.
[0028] Note that FIG. 2 is only for schematically explaining the connection relationship of the outer glass 10, the inner glass 20, the light control functional layer 30, the first conductive layer 40, the second conductive layer 50, and the two adhesive layers 60, and does not specify the connection positions, specific structures, and numbers of each component. On the other hand, the structure shown in the embodiments of the present application does not specifically limit the patterned glass 100. In other embodiments of the present application, the patterned glass 100 may include more or fewer components than shown, may combine certain components, may disassemble certain components, or may include different component arrangements. The illustrated components may be implemented by hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.
[0029] For example, the light control functional layer 30 may be one of a polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) film, a suspended particle device (SPD) film, or an electrochromism (EC) film.
[0030] The first conductive layer 40 includes a plurality of first separation lines 41, and the second conductive layer 50 includes a plurality of second separation lines 51. The first separation lines 41 can divide the first conductive layer 40 into a plurality of segments that are electrically insulated from each other. The second separation lines 51 can divide the second conductive layer 50 into a plurality of segments that are electrically insulated from each other. Each segment can be independently controlled by being connected to a voltage source independently of each other. Therefore, different regions of the patterned glass 100 can be independently controlled, and thus the graphic display of the patterned glass 100 can be realized. The first conductive layer 40, the light control functional layer 30, and the second conductive layer 50 can together form a dimming layer (not shown). The segments of the first conductive layer 40 and the segments of the second conductive layer 50 cooperate to conduct a partial region of the light control functional layer 30 to form a pattern. In other words, the light control functional layer 30 is divided into a plurality of partitions according to the shapes of the plurality of segments of the first conductive layer 40 and the shapes of the plurality of segments of the second conductive layer 50. The shapes of the segments of the first conductive layer 40 and the shapes of the segments of the second conductive layer 50 may be the same.
[0031] The dimming layer may further include a first medium layer (not shown) and a second medium layer (not shown). The first medium layer may be provided between the first conductive layer 40 and the adhesive layer 60 close to the outer layer glass 10, and the second medium layer may be provided between the second conductive layer 50 and the adhesive layer 60 close to the inner layer glass 20. The first medium layer and the second medium layer can be composed of thermoplastic polyester (Polyethylene terephthalate, PET). The first medium layer and the second medium layer can protect the internal components by preventing the internal components (i.e., the first conductive layer 40, the light control functional layer 30, and the second conductive layer 50) from directly contacting the external structure.
[0032] In one possible embodiment, the first conductive layer 40 is provided between the light control functional layer 30 and the inner layer glass 20, and the second conductive layer 50 is provided between the light control functional layer 30 and the outer layer glass 10. One adhesive layer 60 is between the second conductive layer 50 and Outer glass 10is provided between it and another adhesive layer 60 is between the first conductive layer 40 and Inner glass 20 is provided. That is, the inner layer glass 20, one adhesive layer 60, the first conductive layer 40, the light control function layer 30, the second conductive layer 50, another adhesive layer 60, and the outer layer glass 10 are sequentially laminated and provided. The outer layer glass 10 is a single-layer glass facing the outside of the vehicle of the pattern glass 100, and the inner layer glass 20 is a single-layer glass facing the inside of the vehicle of the pattern glass 100. A current flows between the first conductive layer 40 and the second conductive layer 50, and the current flows through the current channel and flows into the light control function layer 30. Due to the photovoltaic effect of the light control function layer 30, the transparency of the pattern glass 100 is changed. Note that the first separation line 41 and the second separation line 51 may be linear and provided perpendicular to the light control function layer 30, and the first separation line 41 and the second separation line 51 may be slightly curved. In the present application, the structures of the first separation line 41 and the second separation line 51 are not limited.
[0033] In another possible embodiment, there are differences from the foregoing embodiment. That is, in this embodiment, the positions of the first conductive layer 40 and the second conductive layer 50 are changed. The first conductive layer 40 is provided between the light control function layer 30 and the outer layer glass 10, and the second conductive layer 50 is provided between the light control function layer 30 and the inner layer glass 20. One adhesive layer 60 is between the first conductive layer 40 and Outer glass 10 is provided between it and another adhesive layer 60 is between the second conductive layer 50 and Inner glass 20 is provided. That is, the outer layer glass 10, one adhesive layer 60, the first conductive layer 40, the light control function layer 30, the second conductive layer 50, another adhesive layer 60, and the inner layer glass 20 are laminated and provided in this order.

The display region 110 is a region where pattern display is possible on the patterned glass 100, and the non-display region 120 may be a region where pattern display is not performed on the patterned glass 100. Alternatively, the display region 110 may be a region on one side of the patterned glass 100, and the non-display region 120 may be a region on the other side of the patterned glass 100. Of course, the entire patterned glass 100 may be used as the display region 110, and in the present application, the positional relationship between the display region 110 and the non-display region 120 is not limited.

The layer structure of the patterned glass 100 in the non-display region 120 may not include the optical control functional layer 30, or alternatively, the non-display region 120 may include the optical control functional layer 30, and the patterned glass 100 in the non-display region 120 does not display a pattern.
[0036] The light control functional layer 30 includes a plurality of partitions, the plurality of partitions are distributed at intervals along a first direction, and the first direction from the first edge 111 to the second edge 112 is defined as the first direction indicated by X.
