DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
[0024] For making the purposes, technical solutions and effects of the present application be clearer and more definite, the present application will be further described in detail below. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0025] Specifically, please refer to
[0026] Wherein, a first groove 1011 and a second groove 1012 are respectively defined on two opposite sides of the backplate 101; the first display panel 102 is mounted in the first groove 1011; and the second display panel 103 is mounted in the second groove 1012. By mounting the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 on one same backplate 101, integration design of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 is realized, which improves integration of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103. Compared to a design method that the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 are mounted independently, a mounting space is advantageously saved, and mounting difficulty is lowered.
[0027] Optionally, the backplate 101 is a die-casting element. Compared to a sheet metal element or a stamping element of an aluminum sheet, the die-casting element has advantages of arbitrary molding, ease of assembly, better heat dissipation, and higher strength. Therefore, compared to designs of sheet metal elements or stamping elements of aluminum sheets of current backplates, the backplate 101 being the die-casting element is more conducive to satisfying design requirements, i.e., the first groove 1011 and the second groove 1012 are easily defined on the two opposite sides of the backplate 101, which is conducive to realizing assembly design of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103.
[0028] Furthermore, an orthogonal projection of the second groove 1012 directly facing an end wall of the first display panel 102 on an end wall of the first groove 1011 directly facing the second display panel 103 is located in a boundary of the first groove 1011 or completely overlaps the end wall of the first groove 1011.

Specifically, the first display panel 102 is configured to display information such as vehicle speed, fuel consumption, etc., and the second display panel 103 is configured to display information such as navigation, vehicle speed, etc.
[0034] Optionally, full color display can be displayed on the first display panel 102, and full color display or black-and-white display can be realized on the second display panel 103. Compared to the design of full color display realized on the second display panel 103, the design of black-and-white display realized on the second display panel 103 can reduce design difficulty of the vehicle-mounted display panel and is conducive to reducing power consumption.
[0035] Optionally, resolutions of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 are different. Furthermore, when displayed contents on the first display panel 102 are more plentiful than displayed contents on the second display panel 103, the resolution of the first display panel 102 is higher than the resolution of the second display panel 103. Wherein, by configuring the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 into different types, or by adjusting a distribution density of pixels of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103, etc., different resolutions of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 are allowed to be realized. Specifically, the first display panel 102 is a self-luminous display panel, or the distribution density of the pixels of the first display panel 102 in a unit area is greater than a distribution density of the pixels of the second display panel 103 in a unit area.
[0036] Optionally, the types of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 are same or different. Specifically, the first display panel 102 is a liquid crystal display panel or a self-luminous display panel, and the second display panel 103 is a liquid crystal display panel or a self-luminous display panel.
[0037] Please continue referring to
[0038] Furthermore, types of the first backlight module 104 and the second backlight module 105 are same or different.
[0039] Specifically, the types of the first backlight module 104 and the second backlight module 105 are same. Each of the first backlight module 104 and the second backlight module 105 further includes edge-lit light sources 1041 and a light guide plate 1042. As illustrated in
[0041] Optionally, numbers of the edge-lit light sources 1041 or the direct-lit light sources 1043 included by the first backlight module 104 and the edge-lit light sources 1041 or the direct-lit light sources 1043 included by the second backlight module 105 are different, so that power consumption of the vehicle-mounted display panel is allowed to be reduced without affecting display effect of the vehicle-mounted display panel.
[0042] Optionally,
[0043] Furthermore, the greater the numbers of the edge-lit light sources 1041 or the direct-lit light sources 1043 there are, the better the display effect is. Therefore, the number of the edge-lit light sources 1041 or the direct-lit light sources 1043 included by the first backlight module 104 can be made to be greater than the number of the edge-lit light sources 1041 or the direct-lit light sources 1043 included by the second backlight module 105 to allow the display effect of the first display panel 102 to be better than the second display panel 103.

[0045] Furthermore, the first backlight module 104 includes the direct-lit light sources 1043 and the diffusion plate 1044. The second backlight module 105 includes the edge-lit light sources 1041 and the light guide plate 1042. The edge-lit light sources 1041 are mounted on the lateral wall of the second groove 1012, i.e., the edge-lit light sources 1041 are mounted on the second lateral wall 1012b of the second groove 1012. The light guide plate 1042 is mounted on the second end wall 1012a of the second groove 1012 and a side of the light guide plate 1042 corresponds to the edge-lit light sources 1041. The direct-lit light sources 1043 are mounted on the end wall of the first groove 1011, i.e., the direct-lit light sources 1043 are mounted on the first end wall 1011a of the first groove 1011. The diffusion plate 1044 is mounted on a side of the direct-lit light sources 1043 away from the first end wall 1011a of the first groove 1011, which uses the direct-lit light sources 1043 to coordinate with local dimming technology to make display quality of the first display panel 102 be better than display quality of the second display panel 103. Furthermore, a depth h1 of the first groove 1011 mounted with the direct-lit light sources 1043 is greater than a depth h2 of the second groove 1012 mounted with the edge-lit light sources 1041, so a certain distance is allowed to exist between the direct-lit light sources 1043 located in the first groove 1011 and the first panel body 1021. Therefore, light emitted from the direct-lit light sources 1043 can uniformly be projected the first panel body 1021, which ensures the first display panel 102 to have a better display quality and to be conducive to lightweight design being realized on the vehicle-mounted display panel.
[0046] Optionally, the edge-lit light sources 1041 and the direct-lit light sources 1043 include light emitting devices. Furthermore, the light emitting devices include sub-millimeter light emitting diodes.
[0047] Optionally, the edge-lit light sources 1041 and the direct-lit light sources 1043 are fixed on the backplate 101 by heat conductive adhesive, and the light guide plate 1042 is interference fit with the backplate 101 by a rubber pad.
[0048] Furthermore, the first backlight module 104 and the second backlight module 105 further include optical layers 1045. Specifically, when the first backlight module 104 and the second backlight module 105 include edge-lit backlight sources 1041, the optical layers 1045 include diffusion films, luminance-enhancing films, etc.; when the first backlight module 104 and the second backlight module 105 include the direct-lit backlight sources 1043, the optical layers 1045 include luminance-enhancing films, etc., which allows to improve performances of brightness of light extraction and uniformity of the first backlight module 104 and the second backlight module 105.
[0049] Please continue referring to
[0050] Optionally, the liquid crystals 1053 include positive liquid crystals and negative liquid crystals. Display modes of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 include a twisted nematic type, an in-plane transforming type, an in-plane switching type, a vertical alignment type, etc.
[0051] Furthermore, please continue referring to
[0052] Optionally, types of the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 being different allows the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 to satisfy different display requirements. Specifically, one of the first display panel 102 or the second display panel 103 is a liquid crystal display panel, and another one of the first display panel 102 or the second display panel 103 is a self-luminous display panel.
[0053] Furthermore, the second display panel 103 is the liquid crystal display panel, and the first display panel 102 is the self-luminous display panel, which allows display effect of the first display panel 102 to be better than display effect of the second display panel 103.
[0054] Furthermore, please refer to
[0055] It can be understood that the self-luminous display panel can emit light without using a backlight module. Therefore, when the first display panel 102 is the self-luminous display panel, the first display panel 102 can be mounted in the first groove 1011.
[0056] In addition, the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 can both be the self-luminous display panels. Furthermore, the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 are the self-luminous display panels of different types, which allows the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 to satisfy different display requirements. Optionally, the light emitting device of the first display panel 102 is the micro light emitting diodes or the sub-millimeter light emitting diodes, and the light emitting device of the second display panel 103 is the organic light emitting diodes.
[0057] Please refer to
[0058] Specifically, the vehicle device includes a center console 401 and a reflective device 402. The center console 401 includes a center console body 4011 and the vehicle-mounted display panel 4012. The vehicle-mounted display panel 4012 is mounted on the center console body 4011. The reflective device 402 is configured to reflect light of the second display panel 103 in a range of an eye-box 403.
[0059] Wherein, the vehicle-mounted display panel 4012 can be fixedly mounted on the center console body 4011. For example, the vehicle-mounted display panel 4012 is fixedly mounted on the center console body 4011 by using a material such as adhesive, etc., or other structural forms such as buckles, pins, threads, etc., which allows the first display panel 102 to be disposed toward the eye box 403 and allows the second display panel 103 to be located in the center console body 4011. Optionally, as illustrated in
[0060] In addition, the vehicle-mounted display panel 4012 can be flipped on the center console body 4011 to realize flipping switch between the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103, and the first display panel 102 or the second display panel 103 is allowed to be disposed toward the eye box 403. Therefore, when one of the first display panel 102 or the second display panel 103 is damaged, one of the first display panel 102 or the second display panel 103 which can display normally is allowed to directly face the eye box 403; or the one of the first display panel 102 or the second display panel 103 which can display normally is allowed to reflect light into the range of the eye box 403 by the reflective device 402.
[0061] Specifically, as illustrated in
[0062] Optionally, the rotational connection part 1013 is located on left and right sides of the backplate 101, and flipping switch between the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 is realized by operation of flipping up-and-down. Optionally, the rotational connection part 1013 is located on upper and lower sides of the backplate 101, and flipping switch between the first display panel 102 and the second display panel 103 is realized by operation of flipping left-and-right.
[0063] Please continue referring to
[0064] Furthermore, the reflective device 402 further includes a reflective mirror 4022 located in an interior of the center console body 4011. The reflective mirror 4022 is configured to reflect the light of the second display panel 103 to the front windshield 4021. Wherein, the reflective mirror 4022 is a concave mirror.
[0065] Optionally, the light of the second display panel 103 can be directly reflected into the range of the eye box 403 by the front windshield 4021 and can also be directly reflected into the range of the eye box 403 by the reflective mirror 4022 and the front windshield 4021.
[0066] Specifically, when the first display panel 102 is disposed toward the eye box 403, the second display panel 103 emits light information, which can be directly projected on the front windshield 4021, and then the light information is reflected into the range of the eye box 403 by the front windshield 4021; or the light information emitted by the second display panel 103 is projected on the reflective mirror 4022, then the light information is reflected on the front windshield 4021 by reflection of the reflective mirror 4022, and then the light information is reflected into the range of the eye box 403 by the front windshield 4021.
[0067] Compared to the design of directly reflecting the light information into the range of the eye box 403 by using the front windshield 4021, adopting the design of reflecting the light information into the range of the eye box 403 by using the reflective mirror 4022 and the front windshield 4021 has a better imaging display effect, i.e., image information received in the range of the eye box 403 is clearer.
[0068] Because projected images 404 are located in front of the eye box 403, when a driver drives the vehicle device, the driver is allowed to look ahead, i.e., displayed information of the second display panel 103 is allowed to be received, and driving safety can be ensured.
[0069] It can be understood that a light transmission port configured for transmission and reflection of the reflective mirror 4022 is disposed on the center console body 4011, so that the light information reflected by the reflective mirror 4022 can be reflected to the front windshield 4021, and then the light information is reflected into the range of the eye box 403 by the front windshield 4021.
[0070] Optionally, the front windshield 4021 includes an optical film layer and glass located on two sides of the optical film layer, so that image information received in the range of the eye box 403 is allowed to be clearer. Furthermore, the optical film layer includes a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) film in a wedged shape, so that the front windshield 4021 is allowed to be in a shape of being thick at top and being thin at bottom.
