BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0020] Hereinafter, while referring to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present application.

[0021] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, Figure 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the automobile window 100 of this embodiment after it has been attached to the automobile body shell 70. Only a portion of the automobile body shell is shown, and the automobile of this embodiment is equipped with the automobile body shell 70. The automobile window 100 comprises an outer glass plate 10, an inner glass plate 20, an intermediate adhesive layer 30, a light-emitting element 40, and a reinforcing plate 50. The outer glass plate 10, the inner glass plate 20, and the intermediate adhesive layer 30 are laminated in order, and the intermediate adhesive layer 30 fixes the outer glass plate 10 and the inner glass plate 20. The light-emitting elements 40 are provided on both opposing sides of the inner glass plate 20. The reinforcing plate 50 is bonded to the periphery of the outer glass plate 10 through a first connector 60, and the reinforcing plate 50 supports the light-emitting elements 40 and a portion of the inner glass plate 20. An adhesive injection space 80 is formed between the reinforcing plate 50 and the automobile body shell 70, and a second connector 90 is filled into the adhesive injection space 80. The car window 100 is fixed to the car body shell 70 through the second connector 90, thereby enabling the car window 100 to be attached to the car. In one embodiment, the first connector 60 and the second connector 90 are, but are not limited to, cured adhesives.

[0022] Specifically, the area of ​​the outer glass plate 10 is larger than the area of ​​the inner glass plate 20. In other words, the projection of the inner glass plate 20 onto the outer glass plate 10 is entirely within the outer glass plate 10, and the projection of the outer glass plate 10 onto the inner glass plate 20 completely covers the inner glass plate 10. The intermediate adhesive layer 30 is located between the outer glass plate 10 and the inner glass plate 20 and is used to bond the outer glass plate 10 and the inner glass plate 20 together. The light-emitting body 40 is provided so as to surround the periphery of the inner glass plate 20. The sides of the inner glass plate 20, the reinforcing plate 50, and part of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 surround the light-emitting body 40, and the light-emitting body 40 is used to emit light rays. The light rays emitted by the light-emitting body 40 pass through the inner glass plate 20 and diffuse into the interior of the automobile window 100, where they are used for interior lighting of the automobile and simultaneously to enhance the visual effect of the automobile window 100. The two reinforcing plates 50 are provided on opposite sides of the inner glass plate 20, and the reinforcing plates 50 are bonded to the outer glass plate 10 through the first connecting body 60. The reinforcing plates 50 support the inner glass plate 20, thereby increasing the rigidity of the automobile window 100. In this application, "projection" means "orthographic projection."

[0023] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, in this embodiment, the outer glass plate 10 has an approximately rectangular plate-like structure. The cross-section of the outer glass plate 10 is rectangular, but is not limited to this. The outer glass plate 10 has a first surface 11, a second surface 12, and two first side surfaces 13. The first surface 11 and the second surface 12 are the two surfaces of the outer glass plate 10 with the largest area. The first surface 11 and the second surface 12 are arranged facing each other, and the two first side surfaces 13 both connect the first surface 11 and the second surface 12. Specifically, after the car window 100 is installed in the car, the first surface 11 faces outward and directly contacts the external space of the car, the second surface 12 faces inward, and the two first side surfaces 13 are two surfaces that face each other in the width direction of the outer glass plate 10.

[0024] The second surface 12 includes a first mounting area 121 and two first bonding areas 122 located on opposite sides of the first mounting area 121. Each of the two first bonding areas 122 is located in the portion of the second surface 12 that connects to the two first side surfaces 13. The projection of the inner glass plate 20 onto the second surface 12 completely overlaps with the first mounting area 121, or is located at least within the first mounting area 121. In this embodiment, the second surface 12, excluding the projection area of ​​the inner glass plate 20 onto the second surface 12, consists of the two first bonding areas 122. To make it clear, in the width direction of the outer glass plate 10 (the width direction of the automobile), there is one first bonding area 122 on each side of the second surface 12.

[0025] Continuing with Figures 2 and 3, the inner glass plate 20 has an approximately rectangular plate-like structure. The cross-section of the inner glass plate 20 is rectangular, but not limited to this. The inner glass plate 20 has a third surface 21, a fourth surface 22, and two opposing second sides 23. The third surface 21 and the fourth surface 22 are the two surfaces of the inner glass plate 20 with the largest area. The third surface 21 and the fourth surface 22 are arranged facing each other. The two second sides 23 are connected to the opposing sides of the third surface 21 and to the opposing sides of the fourth surface 22. Specifically, after the car window 100 is installed in the car, the third surface 21 faces outward from the car, and the fourth surface 22 faces inward from the car and directly contacts the interior space of the car. The two second sides 23 are two surfaces that face each other in the width direction (width of the car) of the inner glass plate 20. The two second sides 23 are used to mount the light-emitting element 40 and to allow the light rays emitted by the light-emitting element 40 to enter the inner glass plate 20. This provides interior lighting for the automobile and enhances the visual effect of the automobile window 100.

[0026] In one embodiment, a pattern is engraved on the inner glass plate 20. When light rays emitted by the light-emitting element 40 pass through the inner glass plate 20, the pattern on the inner glass plate 20 becomes visible through the light rays, thereby enhancing the visual effect of the automobile window 100.

[0027] The fourth surface 22 includes two support regions 24 located on opposite sides of the fourth surface 22, each of which is located near the two second side surfaces 23 of the fourth surface 22, and the projection of the two first bonding regions 122 onto the fourth surface 22 is completely offset from the two support regions 24. Specifically, in the width direction of the inner glass plate 20 (the width direction of the automobile), there is one support region 24 on each side of the fourth surface 22. The two support regions 24 are each used to connect to a reinforcing plate 50. This connection is achieved by the reinforcing plate 50 directly supporting the support regions 24 and, by extension, the inner glass plate 20. Alternatively, it may be achieved by bonding the reinforcing plate 50 to the support regions 24, and is not limited to this application.

[0028] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, the intermediate adhesive layer 30 has an approximately rectangular sheet-like structure. The cross-section of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 is rectangular, but not limited to this. The intermediate adhesive layer 30 is used to bond the outer glass plate 10 and the inner glass plate 20. The material of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 is polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), but not limited to these. The intermediate adhesive layer 30 has a fifth surface 31, a sixth surface 32, and two third sides 33. The fifth surface 31 and the sixth surface 32 are the two surfaces of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 with the largest area. Specifically, after the automobile window 100 is installed in the automobile, the fifth surface 31 is bonded to the outer glass plate 10 facing outwards from the automobile, and the sixth surface 32 is bonded to the inner glass plate 20 facing inwards from the automobile. The two third sides 33 are two opposing surfaces in the width direction (width of the automobile) of the intermediate adhesive layer 30.

[0029] The sixth surface 32 includes a second mounting area 321 and second bonding areas 34 located on opposite sides of the second mounting area 321. The orthographic projection of the second mounting area 321 onto the outer glass plate 10 completely overlaps with the first mounting area 121, and the second bonding areas 34 are used for bonding to the light-emitting body 40 and the reinforcing plate 50. The two second bonding areas 34 are each located close to the two third side surfaces 33 on the sixth surface 32. Specifically, in the width direction of the intermediate adhesive layer 30, there is one second bonding area 34 on each side of the sixth surface 32. The projection of the two first bonding areas 122 of the outer glass plate 10 onto the sixth surface 32 overlaps with the two second bonding areas 34. The projection of the two support areas 24 of the inner glass plate 20 onto the sixth surface 32 is completely offset from the two second bonding areas 34. Furthermore, on the sixth surface 32, excluding the areas of the two second bonding regions 34, the remaining area is used for bonding with the inner glass plate 20.

[0030] The intermediate adhesive layer 30 adheres the outer glass plate 10 and the inner glass plate 20. The second surface 12 of the outer glass plate 10 and the third surface 21 of the inner glass plate 20 are placed facing each other, and the intermediate adhesive layer 30 is positioned between the outer glass plate 10 and the inner glass plate 20. Specifically, the fifth surface 31 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 adheres to the second surface 12 of the outer glass plate 10, and the sixth surface 32 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 adheres to the third surface 21 of the inner glass plate 20. At the same time, it is ensured that each first side surface 13 on both sides of the outer glass plate 10 corresponds to each third side surface 33 on both sides of the intermediate adhesive layer 30, that is, that one first side surface 13 and one third side surface 33 on the same side are in the same plane.

[0031] The projection of the two first bonding regions 122 of the outer glass plate 10 onto the sixth surface 32 perfectly overlaps with the two second bonding regions 34 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30. The projection of the two support regions 24 of the inner glass plate 20 onto the sixth surface 32 is offset from the two second bonding regions 34. The fifth surface 31 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 and the second surface 12 of the outer glass plate 10 are completely bonded, meaning that the fifth surface 31 and the second surface 12 completely overlap after bonding. On the sixth surface 32 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30, all areas except for the regions of the two second bonding regions 34 are bonded to the third surface 21 of the inner glass plate 20.

[0032] Each light-emitting element 40 is, but is not limited to, a light-emitting diode (LED). The light-emitting elements 40 are used to emit light rays, and the light rays from the light-emitting elements 40 enter the inner glass plate 20. automotive windows The light is diffused within the 100, thereby illuminating the interior of the automobile and improving the visual effect of the automobile window 100. The light-emitting body 40 has a first fixed surface 41, a light-emitting surface 42, a second fixed surface 43, and a backlight surface 44. The first fixed surface 41 and the second fixed surface 43 are arranged facing each other, and the light-emitting surface 42 and the backlight surface 44 are also arranged facing each other. The first fixed surface 41 is fixedly connected to the second bonding region 34 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30, and the first fixed surface 41 is located close to the second side surface 23. The light-emitting surface 42 is bonded to the second side surface 23. The area of ​​the light-emitting surface 42 and the area of ​​the second side surface 23 are equal, that is, the projection of the light-emitting surface 42 onto the second side surface 23 completely overlaps with the second side surface 23. After the light-emitting element 40 is attached to the car window 100, the light-emitting surface 42 is fixedly connected to the second side surface 23, which is used to fix the position of the light-emitting element 40 on the car window 100. After the light-emitting element 40 is mounted on the inner glass plate 20, the second fixing surface 43 and the fourth surface 22 are on the same plane, and the second fixing surface 43 is used to fixly connect to the reinforcing plate 50.

[0033] In one embodiment, of the first fixed surface 41, light-emitting surface 42, second fixed surface 43, and backlight surface 44 of each light-emitting element 40, at least the first fixed surface 41 and the second bonding region 34 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 are fixedly connected, while the light-emitting surface 42 and the second side surface 23, the second fixed surface 43 and the reinforcing plate 50, and the backlight surface 44 and the reinforcing plate 50 are not fixed. In other words, the position of the light-emitting element 40 on the automobile window 100 can be fixed by fixing only the first fixed surface 41 and the second bonding region 34 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30. This simplifies the process flow and improves assembly efficiency.

[0034] In one embodiment, fixing grooves (not shown) are provided on both sides of the inner glass plate 20. The light-emitting element 40 can be directly fixed to the inner glass plate 20 through the fixing grooves. In this application, the method of fixing the light-emitting element 40 to the inner glass plate 20 is not limited; any method that allows the light-emitting element 40 to be fixed to the inner glass plate 20 is acceptable.

[0035] Referring to Figures 4 to 6, in some embodiments, the number of light-emitting elements 40 is one or more, and the shape of the light-emitting elements 40 is elongated or circular. In this application, the number and shape of the light-emitting elements 40 are not limited, and the light-emitting elements 40 are... automotive windows The position in which it can be attached to 100 is not limited, and the light emitted by the light-emitting body 40 automotive windows Entering 100, automotive windows It would be ideal if we could achieve 100 lighting and aesthetic functions.

[0036] Continuing to refer to Figures 2 and 3, each reinforcing plate 50 is made of a metal or plastic material. The reinforcing plate 50 includes a first segment 51, a second segment 52, and a third segment 53. The cross-section of each reinforcing plate 50 (the cross-section along the width direction of the automobile) is approximately a Z-shaped plate structure. The first segment 51 and the second segment 52 are connected at an angle, and the second segment 52 and the third segment 53 are connected at an angle. The first segment 51 and the third segment 53 are substantially parallel, and both extending directions are opposite to the second segment 52. The second segment 52 and the third segment 53 form a harbor area (not shown) on one side opposite to the outer glass plate 10 and the inner glass plate 20, and the harbor area is used for connection to the automobile body shell. The first segment 51 includes a third bonding area 54, and the second segment 52 has a seventh surface 55. The third segment 53 includes the fourth bonding region 56. The seventh surface 55 connects the third bonding region 54 and the fourth bonding region 56.

[0037] The reinforcing plate 50 and the outer glass plate 10 are bonded together through a first connector 60, the reinforcing plate 50 supports a portion of the inner glass plate 20, and the seventh surface 55 is provided corresponding to the backlight surface 44 of the light-emitting element 40. Specifically, the seventh surface 55 is parallel to the backlight surface 44, and the two do not directly contact each other, i.e., there is a gap between the seventh surface 55 and the backlight surface 44. In one embodiment, the seventh surface 55 is in direct contact with the backlight surface 44, i.e., there is no gap between the seventh surface 55 and the backlight surface 44. To understand this, the second bonding region 34 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30, the second side surface 23 of the inner glass plate, the first segment 51 of the reinforcing plate 50, and the second segment 52 of the reinforcing plate 50 all surround the light-emitting element 40.

[0038] The third bonding region 54 is in contact with the support region 24. The third bonding region 54 may support the edge of the inner glass plate 20, or it may be bonded to the inner glass plate 20 via an adhesive so as to bond and fix the reinforcing plate 50 to the inner glass plate 20. Note that, in order to provide sufficient space for positioning the light-emitting element 40, the projection of the third bonding region 54 onto the support region 24 is not less than the sum of the area of ​​the support region 24 and the area of ​​the second fixing surface 43; that is, the light-emitting element 40 is located in the third bonding region 54 of the reinforcing plate 50, excluding the area of ​​the third bonding region 54 that is bonded to the support region 24. The third segment 53 of the reinforcing plate 50 is fixedly connected to the outer glass plate 10, and the reinforcing plate 50 supports the inner glass plate 20 through the first segment 51. Thus, automotive windows After the 100 is installed on the automobile body shell, the rigidity of the inner glass plate 20 is increased, preventing damage to the inner glass plate 20 due to insufficient rigidity and lack of support structure, and ultimately improving the lifespan of the automobile window 100.

[0039] The fourth bonding region 56 and the second bonding region 34 are bonded together through a first connecting body 60, which is the cured adhesive. That is, the fourth bonding region 56 and the second bonding region 34 do not come into direct contact, and the first connecting body 60 fills the space between the fourth bonding region 56 and the second bonding region 34 so as to bond and fix the reinforcing plate 50 and the outer glass plate 10. The area of ​​the second bonding region 34 is not less than the sum of the area of ​​the fourth bonding region 56 and the area of ​​the first fixing surface 41, that is, the projection of the second bonding region 34 onto the fourth bonding region 56 covers both the fourth bonding region 56 and the first fixing surface 41.

[0040] The automobile window and automobile provided in this application have an outer glass plate 10 and an inner glass plate 20 with an intermediate adhesive layer 30 After being connected through the connector, the reinforcing plate 50 is positioned so that the first segment 51 of the reinforcing plate 50 supports the inner glass plate 20, and the fourth bonding area 56 of the third segment 53 of the reinforcing plate 50 and the outer glass plate 10 are bonded through the connector, and thereafter the housing area of ​​the reinforcing plate 50 and the automobile body shell 70The adhesive is injected through the space between the mounting area and the body shell, i.e., the adhesive injection space, thereby attaching the automotive window 100 to the automotive body shell. 70 This is fixed in place. This increases the overall rigidity of the car window 100 and solves the problem of insufficient rigidity in two-piece car windows.

[0041] Referring to Figure 7, in one embodiment, each first bonding region 122 is provided with one first adhesive groove 14, and the cross-section of each first adhesive groove 14 along the width direction of the second surface 12 (i.e., the width direction of the automobile) is triangular. The first adhesive groove 14 is used to fill the first connecting body 60 when the reinforcing plate 50 is bonded and fixed to the outer glass plate 10, thereby enhancing the bonding effect and improving the adhesive strength. In one embodiment, the cross-section of each first adhesive groove 14 may be a different shape, and the position and shape of the first adhesive groove 14 are not limited in this application, as long as the fixing relationship between the reinforcing plate 50 and the outer glass plate 10 is satisfied.

[0042] Each second bonding region 34 is provided with one second adhesive groove 35, and each second adhesive groove 35 penetrates the fifth surface 31 and the sixth surface 32 of the intermediate adhesive layer 30. The cross-section of each second adhesive groove 35 along the width direction of the intermediate adhesive layer 30 (i.e., the width direction of the automobile) is trapezoidal, but is not limited to this. The position of each second adhesive groove 35 corresponds to the position of each first adhesive groove 14, which is used to fill the first connecting body 60 when bonding and fixing the reinforcing plate 50 and the outer glass plate 10, thereby enhancing the bonding effect and improving the adhesive strength.

[0043] Furthermore, the position of each second adhesive groove 35 corresponds to the position of each first adhesive groove 14, and the intermediate adhesive layer 30 is bonded to the outer glass plate 10, so that each second adhesive groove 35 communicates with each first adhesive groove 14 to form a third adhesive groove (not shown). Specifically, the cross-section of each first adhesive groove 14 is triangular, and the cross-section of each second adhesive groove 35 is trapezoidal. By overlapping the base of the triangular cross-section of the first adhesive groove 14 with the top base of the trapezoidal cross-section of the second adhesive groove 35, the first adhesive groove 14 and the second adhesive groove 35 are connected to form a third adhesive groove (not shown). The cross-section of the third adhesive groove (not shown) (cross-section along the width direction of the automobile) is triangular, and the third adhesive groove (not shown) is used to fill the first connecting body 60. The first connecting body 60 bonds and fixes the reinforcing plate 50 and the outer glass plate 10. This enhances the adhesive effect and improves the adhesive strength.

[0044] In one embodiment, the method for forming the third adhesive groove (not shown) involves first bonding the intermediate adhesive layer 30 to the outer glass plate 10, and then directly creating grooves at the positions of each second bonding region 34 to form the third adhesive groove (not shown), but is not limited to this.

The heat dissipation holes 57 are used to quickly dissipate the heat released during the operation of the light-emitting element 40, thereby reducing the failure rate and improving safety. In this application, the number and shape of the heat dissipation holes 57 are not limited, as long as the heat dissipation function of the light-emitting element 40 can be achieved.

[0046] Referring to Figure 9, in one embodiment, a replacement switch 58 is further provided on the first segment 51 of each reinforcing plate 50, and the position of the replacement switch 58 corresponds to the second fixed surface 43 of the light-emitting element 40. The replacement switch 58 includes a door plate 581 and an opening 582. The door plate 581 is openable and closable relative to the opening 582, so that the light-emitting element 40 can be installed and removed through the opening 582. If the light-emitting element 40 fails, it can be removed and replaced through the replacement switch 58. In another embodiment, a heat dissipation hole 57 may be provided on the replacement switch 58.

[0047] Referring to Figure 10, in one embodiment, the thickness of the light-emitting element 40 is greater than the thickness of the inner glass plate 20, that is, when viewed from a cross-section in the width direction of the automobile, the light-emitting surface 42 is longer than the second side surface 23, and the portion of the light-emitting surface 42 that is longer than the second side surface 23 extends inward toward the interior of the automobile. In this case, the first segment 51 of the reinforcing plate 50 is approximately Z-shaped, and the first segment 51 includes a first subsegment 511, a second subsegment 512, and a third subsegment 513. The first subsegment 511 is connected at an angle to the second subsegment 512, the second subsegment 512 is connected at an angle to the third subsegment 513, and the first subsegment 511 and the third subsegment 513 are approximately parallel to the third segment 53, and the second subsegment 512 is approximately parallel to the second segment 52. The first subsegment 511, the second subsegment 512, the third subsegment 513, and the second segment 52 form recesses, and a storage space is formed between the recesses, the outer glass plate 10, and the inner glass plate 20, which is used to storage the light-emitting element 40.

[0048] Specifically, the first subsegment 511 extends along the support region 24 of the inner glass plate 20 and is connected to the support region 24 of the inner glass plate 20. One end of the second subsegment 512 is connected to the first subsegment 511 at an angle, and the other end of the second subsegment 512 is connected to the light-emitting body 40. Light-emitting surface 42It extends along the second segment 512. One end of the third subsegment 513 is connected at an angle to the second subsegment 512, and the other end of the third subsegment 513 extends along the second fixed surface 43 of the light-emitting body 40 and is connected to the second segment 52. The second segment 52 extends along the backlight surface 44 of the light-emitting body 40 and the third segment 53 They are connected at an angle. To make it clear, the second side surface 23 of the inner glass plate 20, the second subsegment 512, the third subsegment 513, the second segment 52, and part of the intermediate adhesive layer of the reinforcing plate 50 are connected. 30 They both surround the light-emitting element 40. 40 The light-emitting elements are housed within the storage space, thereby allowing light-emitting elements of different sizes to be attached to match the external shape of the light-emitting element 40.

[0049] In one embodiment, the number of reinforcing plates 50 may be four or six, and the number of reinforcing plates 50 is not limited in this application. In the same case, the more reinforcing plates 50 there are, the stronger the reinforcing effect.
