[0041] In order to more clearly illustrate the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present disclosure, the scheme of the present disclosure will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0042] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all the embodiments.

[0043] Referring to Figs. 1-3, the present application discloses a vehicle-mounted screen assembly, comprising: a flexible screen 1 and a roof slide rail 3; the flexible screen 1 is connected with an in-vehicle mounting platform, and the flexible screen has a storage position relative to the in-vehicle mounting platform, in the storage position, the display surface 14 of the flexible screen exposed to the inside and outside of the vehicle has an interactive area 13; the roof slide rail 3 is provided on the in-vehicle mounting platform and extends along the length direction of the vehicle, and the flexible screen is connected with the roof slide rail.

[0044] In some embodiments, the flexible screen 1 is connected to an in-vehicle mounting platform, which can be a roof of the vehicle, a seat back of a front seat, or a dashboard of the vehicle. The flexible screen can be a foldable screen. In the storage state, the flexible screen has a storage position relative to the in-vehicle mounting platform. In the storage position, the flexible screen has an interactive area 13 on the display surface exposed to the inside of the vehicle. For example, when the flexible screen 1 is in the storage position, the flexible screen 1 is in a screen-off state. A user can wake up the flexible screen 1 by touching the interactive area 13 of the flexible screen 1, or the user can wake up the flexible screen 1 or realize the functional display of the flexible screen 1 by a gesture action. Alternatively, the user can wake up the flexible screen by voice operation. In addition, the wake-up operation can also be remote control, key wake-up, etc.

[0045] By arranging the display surface 14 of the flexible screen 1 to at least partially expose to the inside of the vehicle in the storage position, and arranging the interactive area 13 on the part of the display surface 14 exposed to the inside of the vehicle, the interaction between the screen and the user can be realized when the flexible screen 1 is in the storage state. The interaction can be realized without opening the flexible screen 1, which is simple in structure and convenient to use. At the same time, it is not necessary to arrange physical keys, which reduces the cost increase caused by arranging physical keys.

[0046] In some embodiments, the flexible screen 1 is connected to a roof slide rail 3 arranged on the in-vehicle mounting platform and extending along the length direction of the vehicle. The roof slide rail 3 can be arranged on the in-vehicle mounting platform, which can be a roof of the vehicle or a side beam of the roof for support. For example, the roof slide rail can be arranged on the roof of the vehicle. After the flexible screen 1 is connected to the roof slide rail, the flexible screen can slide along the length direction of the vehicle based on the roof slide rail, so as to realize the adjustment of the position of the flexible screen. For example, based on the different positions of the user in the vehicle, the position of the flexible screen is adjusted by the roof slide rail, so that the position of the flexible screen is a position meeting the viewing demand of the user.

[0047] Optionally, referring to FIGS. 1-3, the flexible screen has at least two layering areas. When the flexible screen 1 is in a fully unfolded state, the flexible screen has a back decorative surface on the side away from the display surface in the thickness direction of the flexible screen. The at least two layering areas include adjacent first and second layering areas. One end of the flexible screen away from the in-vehicle mounting platform is a part of the first layering area. In the storage position, the display surface of the second layering area faces the in-vehicle mounting platform in the thickness direction of the first layering area. The back decorative surface of the second layering area faces the back decorative surface of the first layering area. The display surface of the first layering area exposes to the inside of the vehicle. The interactive area 13 is a part of the display surface of the first layering area.

[0048] In some embodiments, the flexible screen 1 has at least two layering areas, and in the storage position, all the layering areas are layered together. For example, the flexible screen 1 can layer the layering areas together by folding. That is, the flexible screen 1 can be folded; this facilitates the layering of the layering areas, reduces the layering difficulty, and reduces the production cost. After the flexible screen is folded, the interaction area is part of the display surface of the first layering area, and the interaction area is exposed to the user, so as to be used by the user in the storage position.

[0049] Optionally, in the direction in which the roof slide rail 3 extends, the roof slide rail 3 has a plurality of mounting positions, and the flexible screen 1 is connected to the mounting positions of the roof slide rail 3.

[0050] In some embodiments, in the direction in which the roof slide rail 3 extends, the roof slide rail 3 has a plurality of mounting positions, and the flexible screen 1 is connected to the mounting positions of the roof slide rail 3. For example, when the user feels that the distance between the flexible screen 1 and himself is far, the user can connect the flexible screen 1 to the mounting position of the roof slide rail 3 close to himself; when the user feels that the distance between the flexible screen 1 and himself is close, the user can connect the flexible screen 1 to the mounting position of the roof slide rail 3 away from himself. In this way, the flexible screen 1 has a plurality of mounting positions along the roof slide rail 3, so that the user can adjust the distance between the flexible screen 1 and the user's eyes by adjusting the mounting position of the flexible screen 1 on the roof slide rail 3, to meet the user's demand for adjustable distance of the flexible screen 1.

[0051] Optionally, the roof slide rail 3 is provided with a sliding block, the sliding block is slidable along the extension direction of the roof slide rail, the flexible screen is connected to the sliding block, a rotating hole is formed on one of the sliding block and the flexible screen, the other has a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is arranged in the rotating hole.

[0052] In some embodiments, the roof slide rail 3 is provided with a sliding block, the sliding block is slidable along the extension direction of the roof slide rail 3, the flexible screen 1 is connected to the sliding block, a rotating hole is formed on one of the sliding block and the flexible screen 1, the other has a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is arranged in the rotating hole. In this way, the rotating shaft can rotate along the central axis of the rotating hole. For example, the rotating hole can be formed on the sliding block, and the hinged end 11 of the flexible screen 1 has the rotating shaft.

[0053] In this way, the flexible screen 1 can rotate relative to the sliding block, so that the flexible screen 1 can be angle-adjusted at any position of the roof slide rail 3, further meeting the user's diversified demand for the angle, size and distance of the flexible screen 1, and improving the overall performance of the vehicle-mounted screen assembly 100.

[0054] For example, the rotating shaft and the rotating hole can be in interference fit, so that the force between the slider and the rotating shaft is large, and after the screen is rotated by a certain angle relative to the roof slide rail 3, the rotating shaft and the slider are reliably connected, so that the slider can reliably position the flexible screen 1 at any angle relative to the roof slide rail 3, improving the reliability of the vehicle-mounted screen assembly 100.

[0055] Optionally, the flexible screen 1 has a use position relative to the in-vehicle mounting platform; in the use position, the surface of the flexible screen 1 away from the display surface 14 is detachably connected with the roof slide rail 3.

[0056] In some embodiments, in the use position, the surface of the flexible screen 1 away from the display surface 14 is detachably connected with the roof slide rail 3; that is, the back surface is detachably connected with the roof slide rail 3. For example, the flexible screen 1 and the roof slide rail 3 can be detachably attached together by a magic tape. For another example, the flexible screen 1 and the roof slide rail 3 can also be detachably attracted together by a magnetic piece. For another example, the flexible screen 1 and the roof slide rail 3 can also be detachably connected together by a buckle structure. In this way, the flexible screen 1 has a larger use angle range, and when the user lies in the vehicle, the user can rotate the flexible screen 1 away from the display surface 14 to be attached to the roof slide rail 3 to achieve the maximum viewing angle, improve the viewing effect, and meet the use demand of the viewing angle when lying in the vehicle.

[0057] Optionally, in the storage position, the flexible screen 1 is in a screen-off state, and in the screen-off state, the flexible screen is awakened based on a user's wake-up operation.

[0058] In some embodiments, in the storage position, the display surface 14 of the flexible screen 1 exposed to the inside of the vehicle has an interaction area 13; for example, when the flexible screen 1 is in the storage position, the flexible screen 1 is in a screen-off state, at this time, the user can wake up the flexible screen by a wake-up operation, for example, the user can wake up the flexible screen 1 by touching the flexible screen 1, or the user can wake up the flexible screen 1 or realize the functional display of the flexible screen 1 by a gesture action, or the user can wake up the flexible screen by a voice operation. In addition, the wake-up operation can also be remote control, key wake-up, etc.

[0059] Since the flexible screen usually supports partition control, for example, keeping part of the area lit to display key information in the screen-off state, or for the folding screen electronic device, only the screen lit outside the user is exposed in the folded state. Therefore, in the storage position, the flexible screen can be in the screen-off state, and if the user wants to wake up the flexible screen, the interactive area of the flexible screen can be woken up through the wake-up operation, that is, only the interactive area is lit for the user to use. The range of the interactive area can be determined according to the size of the display surface exposed to the inside or outside of the vehicle in the actual scene, for example, it can be one-half, one-third, one-fourth, and the like of the size of the entire flexible screen, which is not limited in the present application.

[0060] Optionally, the roof slide rail 3 is spaced apart in the width direction of the vehicle.

[0061] In some embodiments, the roof slide rail 3 can be multiple, and the multiple roof slide rails 3 are spaced apart in the width direction of the vehicle. For example, the roof slide rail 3 can be two, three or four. Each roof slide rail 3 is connected with the hinged end. In this way, the risk of the flexible screen 1 shaking in the width direction of the vehicle relative to the roof slide rail 3 can be reduced, the risk of the flexible screen 1 shaking in the width direction of the vehicle relative to the roof of the vehicle can be reduced, and the reliability of the vehicle screen assembly 100 can be improved.

[0062] Optionally, the roof slide rail 3 extends from the front windshield to the rear windshield cross beam in the length direction of the vehicle.

[0063] In some embodiments, the roof slide rail extends from the front windshield to the rear windshield cross beam in the length direction of the vehicle to meet the use needs of users at different positions in the vehicle. For example, the vehicle can have two rows of seats, and the vehicle can also have three rows of seats. Users can move the flexible screen 1 along the roof slide rail 3 so that users on multiple rows of seats can watch the content displayed on the flexible screen 1, and the use needs of the vehicle home theater can be met.

[0064] Optionally, the surface of the flexible screen 1 away from the display surface can be rotated and rotated to be attached to the roof slide rail.

[0065] In some embodiments, in the use position, the surface of the flexible screen 1 away from the display surface 14 is detachably connected with the roof slide rail 3, for example, magnetic attraction, magic tape and the like. In this way, the flexible screen 1 can have a larger use angle range, and when the user lies in the vehicle, the user can rotate the surface of the flexible screen 1 away from the display surface 14 to be attached to the roof slide rail 3 to achieve the maximum viewing angle, improve the viewing effect, and meet the use needs of the viewing angle when lying in the vehicle.

[0066] Referring to FIG. 1-3, the application discloses a vehicle-mounted screen assembly 100, comprising: a flexible screen 1, the flexible screen 1 is connected with an in-vehicle mounting platform, and the flexible screen 1 has a storage position and a use position relative to the in-vehicle mounting platform, the flexible screen 1 has at least two stackable areas, and in the storage position, all the stackable areas are stacked together. For example, the flexible screen 1 can stack the stackable areas together by folding, and the flexible screen 1 can also stack the stackable areas together by winding. For example, the in-vehicle mounting platform can be the roof of the vehicle, the in-vehicle mounting platform can be the seat backrest of the front seat, and the in-vehicle mounting platform can also be the instrument panel of the vehicle.

[0067] And the display surface 14 of the flexible screen 1 at least partially faces the in-vehicle exposure, the area of the display surface 14 facing the in-vehicle exposure is a storage area, and in the storage position, the display surface 14 of the flexible screen 1 facing the in-vehicle exposure has an interactive area 13; for example, when the flexible screen 1 is in the storage position, the flexible screen 1 is in the screen-off state, the user can wake up the flexible screen 1 by touching the flexible screen 1, or the user can wake up the flexible screen 1 or realize the functional display of the flexible screen 1 by gesture action. Since the flexible screen generally supports partition control, for example, part of the area is kept on in the screen-off state to display key information, or for folding screen electronic devices, only the screen light of the exposed part of the user can be provided for use in the folded state. Therefore, in the storage position, the flexible screen can be in the screen-off state, and in this state, if the user wants to wake up the flexible screen, the interactive area of the flexible screen can be woken up by gesture action, that is, only the interactive area is lighted for the user to use. The range of the interactive area can be determined according to the size of the display surface facing the in-vehicle exposure in the actual scene, for example, it can be one-half, one-third, one-fourth or the like of the entire flexible screen, which is not limited in the application.

[0068] In the use position, the two adjacent stackable areas can be unfolded, the area of the display surface 14 facing the in-vehicle exposure is a use area, and the use area is larger than the storage area. By providing stackable stackable areas on the flexible screen 1, the user can adjust the size of the flexible screen 1 by stacking the two adjacent stackable areas together or unfolding them.

[0069] By making the display surface 14 of the flexible screen 1 at least partially face the in-vehicle exposure in the storage position, and setting the interactive area 13 on the part of the display surface 14 facing the in-vehicle exposure, the interaction between the screen and the user can be realized when the flexible screen 1 is in the storage state, and the interaction can be realized without opening the flexible screen 1, which is simple in structure and convenient to use. At the same time, it is not necessary to set physical buttons, which reduces the cost increase caused by setting physical buttons.

[0070] Referring to FIGS. 1-3, according to some embodiments provided by the present disclosure, when the flexible screen 1 is in a fully unfolded state, the flexible screen 1 has a back finish on a side thereof away from the display surface 14 in a thickness direction thereof, and at least two layering areas include adjacent first and second layering areas, one end of the flexible screen 1 away from the in-vehicle mounting platform is part of the first layering area;

[0071] In the stowed position, in the thickness direction of the first layering area, the display surface 14 of the second layering area faces the in-vehicle mounting platform, the back finish of the second layering area faces the back finish of the first layering area, the display surface 14 of the first layering area faces outward of the vehicle, and the interaction area is part of the display surface of the first layering area, i.e., the flexible screen 1 is foldable. This facilitates layering of the layering areas together, reduces layering difficulty, and reduces production cost.

[0072] Referring to FIGS. 1-3, according to some embodiments provided by the present disclosure, when the flexible screen 1 is in a fully unfolded state, the flexible screen 1 has a back finish on a side thereof away from the display surface 14 in a thickness direction thereof, and at least two layering areas include adjacent third and fourth layering areas, one end of the flexible screen 1 away from the in-vehicle mounting platform is part of the third layering area;

[0073] In the stowed position, the third layering area is rolled up into a cylindrical shape, and the fourth layering area is arranged on a radially outer circumferential side of the third layering area, i.e., the flexible screen 1 is rollable.

[0074] In the radial direction of the third layering area, the display surface 14 of the third layering area is located radially outward of the display surface 14 of the third layering area, the display surface of the third layering area faces the back finish of the fourth layering area, the display surface of the fourth layering area faces outward of the vehicle, and the interaction area is part of the display surface of the fourth layering area. That is, the flexible screen 1 is rolled up starting from one end thereof away from the in-vehicle mounting platform, and the flexible screen 1 is rolled up toward the back finish thereof, so that the display surface 14 of the flexible screen 1 faces outward of the vehicle.

[0075] By rolling up the flexible screen 1, the flexible screen 1 in the stowed position occupies a relatively small space, facilitating stowage of the flexible screen 1. Moreover, the rolled-up flexible screen 1 is generally cylindrical, so that in the process of stowing the flexible screen 1 in the accommodation space or in the process of taking the flexible screen 1 out of the accommodation space, the risk of interference between the flexible screen 1 and the side wall of the accommodation space due to the presence of a right angle can be reduced, and the accommodation space does not have to be set to be relatively large to avoid interference between the flexible screen 1 and the side wall of the accommodation space, so that the accommodation space can be set to be relatively small.
