本申请要求于2021年03月04日提交中国国家知识产权局的申请号为202110239212.5、名称为“用于抬头显示的光学模组及其光学系统、车辆”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及抬头显示技术领域,具体涉及用于抬头显示的光学模组及其光学系统、车辆。
背景技术
随着技术发展,抬头显示技术(HUD)应用到汽车领域越来越普通,近年来增强现实型抬头显示(AR HUD)也开始在一些高端车上应用。由于AR HUD可以更大的视场角和更远的虚像距离,可以使显示图像和现实物体相融合,因此更受到用户喜欢。
然而由于AR HUD光学元件面积较大,因此外部阳光进入光学系统时的能量会更多;另外,由于虚像距离较远,图像生成单元的位置相对于普通HUD来说离光学成像系统的焦点更近。因此发生阳光倒灌时,太阳光能量在图像生成单元上会更集中;相应地,此时图像生成单元光照区域的温度的非常高,如果不予以处理,极端情况下温度有可能达到300℃,远超过一般图像生成单元的工作温度(一般为105℃),影响成像质量,严重时还可能导致图像生成单元因过热而损坏,影响其工作性能。
发明内容
本申请提供了一种用于抬头显示的光学模组及其光学系统、车辆,能够有效降低图像生成单元的温度,提高成像质量和工作性能。
本申请的一些实施例提供了一种用于抬头显示的光学模组,该光学模组可以包括依次设置的图像生成元件和阻光组件,所述图像生成元件可以用于形成图像信号,所述图像信号透过所述阻光组件入射接收端;所述阻光组件还可以用于根据偏振方向和/或波长使外界光中的部分光透过。

可选地,所述偏光膜可以为吸收型偏光膜或反射型偏光膜。
可选地,所述阻光组件还可以包括滤光元件,所述滤光元件可以位于所述偏光防尘膜和所述图像生成元件之间,以根据所述波长使外界光中的部分光透过。
可选地,所述滤光元件可以至少用于过滤红外光,并透射可见光。
可选地,所述滤光元件还可过滤紫外光。
可选地,所述图像生成元件和所述滤光元件可以贴合设置。
可选地,所述滤光元件和所述图像生成元件间隔独立设置于光路中。
可选地,在所述偏光防尘膜和所述滤光元件之间还可以设有至少一个反射面,用于将入射所述偏光防尘膜的光束反射向所述滤光元件,或者将入射所述滤光元件的光束反射向所述偏光放尘膜。
可选地,所述反射面可以为曲面。
本申请的另一些实施例提供了一种用于抬头显示的光学系统,该光学系统可以包括:背光模组和本申请的一些实施例所提供的用于抬头显示的光学模组,所述用于抬头显示的光学模组的图像生成元件可以位于所述背光模组的出光侧。
本申请的再一些实施例提供了一种车辆,该车辆可以包括:车辆本体和本申请的另一些实施例所提供的用于抬头显示的光学系统,所述用于抬头显示的光学系统可以设置于所述车辆本体上,且所述用于抬头显示的光学系统的阻光组件和接收端分别位于所述车辆本体的挡风玻璃的两侧。
本申请实施例提供的用于抬头显示的光学模组及其光学系统、车辆,用于抬头显示的光学模组包括依次设置的图像生成元件和阻光组件,图像生成元件用于生成图像,光源出射的光束经图像生成元件后,形成图像光,产生图像信号,然后带有图像信号信息的图像光经阻光组件后被后端接收端接收,形成图像。图像光经阻光组件时不受或极少受阻光组件的影响,保持图像光原有参数不改变,例如图像光的亮度经阻光组件后不改变。在这个过程中,外界光会由接收端一侧入射用于抬头显示的光学模组,外界光依次经阻光组件和图像生成元件,外界光经图像生成元件后不产生图像,但是外界光的光热量会聚集在图像生成元件上,增大图像生成元件的温度,影响图像生成元件的工作性能,因此采用阻光组件以滤除大部分的外界光,使少部分外界光通过,降低外界光在图像生成元件上的光热量,降低图像生成元件的温度,以保证图像生成元件的工作性能。阻光组件对图像光没有影响或有极少影响,可使图像光通过;但阻光元件会根据光的偏振方向,或者波长,或者结合偏振方向和波长,选择外界光中的哪部分光可透过,阻光组件滤除大部分外界光,只有少部分外界光会通过。这样一来,图像光被接收端接收以生成图像,外界光经过阻光组件筛选后,减小了外界光入射图像生成元件的量,可有效降低聚集到图像生成元件上的光热量,达到降低图像生成元件表面温度的目的,保证图像质量。
可选地,用于抬头显示的光学系统包括背光模组和如上的用于抬头显示的光学模组,通过背光模组照射图像生成元件以形成图像光。

抬头显示简称HUD,又被叫做平行显示系统,是指以驾驶员为中心、盲操作、多功能仪表盘。以驾驶员为中心是为了让驾驶员在开车的时候看车载屏幕、操作旋钮更加方便;盲操作是为了让驾驶员尽可能不把视线离开前方;多功能仪表盘上面能显示导航信息是为 了让看导航这件事儿尽可能少的转移驾驶员的注意力。总之,就是让驾驶员在开车的时候别总是左顾右盼,好好盯着前面的路况。
HUD可以把当前时速、导航等信息投影到风挡玻璃上的光电显示装置上,在玻璃前方形成影像。驾驶员不用转头、低头就能看到导航、车速信息。
近年来,增强现实型抬头显示(AR HUD)也开始在一些高端车上应用,但是由于AR HUD光学元件面积较大,因此外部阳光进入光学系统时的能量会更多;另一方面,由于虚像距离较远,图像生成单元的位置相对于普通HUD来说离光学成像系统的焦点更近,因此发生阳光倒灌时,太阳光能量在图像生成单元上会更集中,此时图像生成单元光照区域的温度非常高。为保证图像的成像质量,需降低图像生成单元光照区域的温度。
CN109219767A提出了一种解决方案,以冷光镜(平面镜)来替代成像系统中的普通平面镜,由于冷光镜仅反射可见光,透射红外及紫外线,太阳光中红外线所携带的能量所占比例较高,因此可有效降低到达图像生成单元表面的能量,进而降低其表面温度。
但是,冷光镜膜系复杂,订制化成本很高,一般都做成比较大的面积,然后根据实际需要进行裁切,以满足不同的需求,因此一般都以平面镜的形式出现。然而随着客户的要求越来越高,当前自由曲面+平面镜的组合已满足不了客户对图像质量的要求,一般都要把两级反射镜都做成曲面,才能满足需求,在这种情况下,冷光镜技术的应用受到极大限制。
本申请实施例提供一种用于抬头显示的光学模组,旨在解决抬头显示特别是增强现实型抬头显示器使用过程中,由于发生阳光倒灌导致图像生成单元如薄膜晶体管、液晶显示器过热而不能工作的问题。本申请实施例的用于抬头显示的光学模组,可阻止部分太阳光进入用于抬头显示的光学模组,并有效阻止红外光、紫外光到达图像生成元件102表面,以降低其表面温度;还可采用两级反射镜均为曲面的设计满足对成像质量的要求。
具体地,请参照图1,本申请的一些实施例提供了一种用于抬头显示的光学模组,该光学模组包括依次设置的图像生成元件102和阻光组件,图像生成元件102用于形成图像信号,图像信号透过阻光组件入射接收端;阻光组件还用于根据偏振方向和/或波长使外界光中的部分光透过。
在抬头显示技术中,图像生成元件102一般为薄膜晶体管液晶显示器(TFT LCD),光源位于图像生成元件102的入光侧,光源和图像生成元件102配合设置,光源发射的光束经图像生成元件102后形成图像光,产生图像信号,图像光或者说图像信号经阻光组件后入射接收端,接收端接收到图像信号后形成图像。
图像信号经阻光组件时,阻光组件对图像信号没有影响或极少有影响,以保证接收端接收到的图像不受阻光组件的影响,保证其图像亮度和图像质量。
阻光组件采用偏振阻光时,可采用偏振方向和图像光出光方向一致的阻光组件,因此阻光组件对图像光不起作用,可使图像光透过。阻光组件采用波长阻光时,可选用能透射图像光波长的阻光元件,也可使图像光透过。
但阻光组件对外界光具有筛选的作用,根据光的偏振方向,或者波长,或者结合偏振方向和波长筛选外界光,使外界光中的部分光透过,部分光被滤除。
一般外界光由接收端一侧入射,依次经阻光组件入射图像生成元件102,外界光经图像生成元件102后,对图像生成元件102不产生作用,图像生成元件102不产生图像信号,但是外界光的光热量会聚集到图像生成元件102上,使图像生成元件102的温度增高,影响图像生成元件102的工作性能。
当将用于抬头显示的光学模组应用在抬头显示技术的时候,通常用于汽车等交通工具,汽车在户外行驶,环境光线对它的影响比较大,所以这里的外界光指的是太阳光,汽车在户外行驶时,太阳光总会无可避免地从接收端的一侧入射用于抬头显示的光学模组。
因此,需要通过阻光组件通过过滤或反射等方式阻挡这部分外界光入射图像生成元件102,阻光组件对外界光进行筛选。这样一来,外界光经阻光组件筛选后,大部分被阻光组件滤除掉,只有少部分未被滤除的外界光会到达图像生成元件102,使聚集到图像生成元件102的光热量减小,就缓解或消除了外界光带给图像生成元件102的影响,解决相关技术中阳光倒灌,以抑制图像生成元件102的温度升高的问题,以保证图像生成元件102能稳定工作。
由上述可知,用于抬头显示的光学模组有两种光入射,分别为能使图像生成元件102产生图像信号的光源,和对图像生成元件102产生图像信号无贡献的外界光,光源和外界光分别从两个方向入射,也就是说,光源和外界光经过用于抬头显示的光学模组的光路完全相反。
本申请的一些实施例所提供的用于抬头显示的光学模组,依次设置图像生成元件102和阻光组件,图像生成元件102用于生成图像,光源出射的光束经图像生成元件102后,形成图像光,产生图像信号,然后带有图像信号信息的图像光经阻光组件后被后端接收端接收,形成图像。图像光经阻光组件时不受或极少受阻光组件的影响,保持图像光原有的参数不改变,例如图像光经阻光组件后,图像光的亮度不改变。在这个过程中,外界光会由接收端一侧入射用于抬头显示的光学模组,外界光依次经阻光组件和图像生成元件102,外界光经图像生成元件102后不产生图像,但是外界光的光热量会聚集在图像生成元件102上,增大图像生成元件102的温度,影响图像生成元件102的工作性能,因此采用阻光组件以滤除大部分的外界光,使少部分外界光通过,降低外界光在图像生成元件102上的光 热量,降低图像生成元件102的温度,以保证图像生成元件102的工作性能。阻光组件对图像光没有影响或有极少影响,可使图像光通过;但阻光元件会根据光的偏振方向,或者波长,或者结合偏振方向和波长,选择外界光中的哪部分光可透过,阻光组件滤除大部分外界光,只有少部分外界光会通过,这样一来,图像光被接收端接收以生成图像,外界光经过阻光组件筛除后,减小了外界光入射图像生成元件102的量,可有效降低聚集到图像生成元件102上的光热量,达到降低图像生成元件102表面温度的目的,保证图像质量。
阻光元件以偏振方向筛选外界光时,阻光组件包括偏光防尘膜106,如图3所示,偏光防尘膜106包括透明基底1061和设在透明基底1061上的偏光膜1062,偏光膜1062的偏光方向和图像生成元件102形成的图像信号的光束的出光方向相同。
偏光膜1062的偏光方向和图像生成元件102形成的图像光的出光方向相同,也就是两者的偏振方向一致,则图像光可透过偏光膜1062到达接收端。
外界光较杂散,有多个偏振方向,外界光中偏振方向和偏光膜1062的偏振方向一致的,可透过偏光膜1062;外界光中偏振方向和偏光膜1062的偏振方向不一致的,无法透过偏光膜1062,被偏光膜滤除。
因此,选择偏光膜1062参数时,需选择和图像光偏振方向一致的,但又能尽可能滤除外界光中的大部分光的偏光膜1062,以达到使图像光透过,并能滤除外界光中的大部分光,达到降低图像生成元件102温度的目的。
经选择后,偏光防尘膜106能够阻止一半左右的外界光进入用于抬头显示的光学模组内,同时对图像生成元件102形成的图像光的亮度没有或极少有影响。
偏光防尘膜106包括透明基底1061和偏光膜1062,透明基底1061可采用PC聚碳酸酯。偏光膜1062贴合在透明基底1061上,偏光膜1062的偏光方向与图像生成元件102形成的图像光的出光方向相匹配。
偏光膜1062可为吸收型偏光膜1062,用于吸收某一偏振方向的入射光;或者,偏光膜1062可为反射型偏光膜1062,用于反射某一偏振方向的入射光。
如图3所示,经图像生成元件102出射的图像光绝大部分都能够通过偏光膜1062,从而不影响亮度;而对于从外部进来的外界光(sunshine),仅有部分(约50%)与图像生成元件102出光方向一致的光可通过偏光防尘膜106进入图像生成元件102,而另一部分则以吸收或反射的方式被阻挡在偏光防尘膜106外,无法入射图像生成元件102,因此可有效降低进入图像生成元件102的太阳光能量,从而达到降低图像生成元件102表面温度的目的。
可选地,阻光组件还包括滤光元件103,滤光元件103位于偏光防尘膜106和图像生 成元件102之间,以根据波长使外界光中的部分光透过,过滤经偏光防尘膜106入射的外界光中的部分光束。
外界光由接收端经偏光防尘膜106入射到滤光元件103,如图2所示,外界光一般为太阳光,太阳光的光谱范围非常大,除了可见光,还有红外光和紫外光线,这些光线特别是红外光携带了太阳光的大量能量,因此如果对于会聚到图像生成元件102上的光线不作处理的话,会使得图像生成元件102的温度非常高,从而影响图像生成元件102的性能。
因红外光携带了太阳光中的大部分能量,因此滤光元件103要至少能过滤红外光,或者过滤红外光中的部分,这样就能滤除到达图像生成元件102的外界光中的大部分能量。
滤光元件103至少用于过滤红外光,并透射可见光。滤光元件还可过滤紫外光,滤光元件103上镀覆光学膜,通过光学膜,使滤光元件103既可以滤紫外光,也可以滤红外光,或者仅滤红外光,或者仅滤红外光的一部分。
作为其中一个实施例,滤光元件103过滤波长小于400nm的紫外光,同时过滤波长大于680nm红外光,所过滤的红外光和紫外光能量约占进入用于抬头显示的光学模组的太阳光能量的68%。
滤光元件103能够反射太阳光中的红外光(IR)、紫外光(UV),透过可见光(visible)。如图4和图5所示,滤光元件103为滤光片,滤光片可贴合到图像生成元件102上,由于滤光元件103在可见光波段有很高透射率,因此对于从图像生成元件102出射的图像光影响很小,也即对图像光的亮度的影响很小;另外滤光元件103反射红外光、紫外光,当经过偏光防尘膜106的太阳光倒灌到滤光元件103表面时,红外光、紫外光即会被反射,可见光则可透过,由于红外光所占的能量比较多,被反射不能到达图像生成元件102表面,因此使用了滤光元件103后的图像生成元件102表面温度会进一步降低,增强图像生成元件102的工作稳定性。
可选地,滤光元件103包括基材和设在基材上的镀膜,滤光元件103的基材可选用玻璃D263T,滤光元件103的镀膜材料可选用TiO2、SiO2等,以增强滤光效果。
其中,滤光元件103和图像生成元件102可贴合设置,或者,滤光元件103和图像生成元件102间隔独立设置于光路中。
由上述可知,偏光防尘膜106根据偏振方向过滤外界光中的部分光,减小外界光入射滤光元件103的总量,滤光元件103根据波长要至少能滤除红外光,减少红外光带给图像生成元件102的热量。结合偏光防尘膜106和过滤红外光、紫外光的滤光元件103,相对于未使用任何策略的抬头显示系统,采用本申请实施例的用于抬头显示的光学模组,到达图像生成元件102表面的太阳光能量可减少约84%,其中,84%≈1-50%*32%,50%为偏 光防尘膜106的透过率,偏光防尘膜106可减少50%的外界光进入;32%为可见光能量(400nm~640nm)占太阳光总能量的比值,减少了到达图像生成元件102表面的大部分光能量,有效降低图像生成元件102表面的温度,因此可有效保护图像生成元件102,改善抬头显示技术中阳光倒灌现象。
可选地,在偏光防尘膜106和滤光元件103之间还设有至少一个反射面,用于将入射偏光防尘膜106的光束反射向滤光元件103,或者将入射滤光元件103的光束反射向偏光放尘膜。
由图像生成元件102形成的图像光经滤光元件103入射至少一个反射面,经至少一个反射面的反射后,射向偏光防尘膜106;由接收端入射的外界光经偏光防尘膜106入射至少一个反射面,经至少一个反射面的反射后,依次入射滤光元件103和图像生成元件102。
反射面完成滤光元件103和偏光防尘膜106之间的光束反射,用于成像。示例地,本申请实施例中采用两个反射镜,分别为第一反射镜104和第二反射镜105,通过第一反射镜104和第二反射镜105完成滤光元件103和偏光防尘膜106之间的光束反射。
反射面为曲面,当采用第一反射镜104和第二反射镜105时,第一反射镜104具有两个反射面,可分别反射图像光和外界光两个方向的光,第一反射镜104的两个反射面可以均为曲面,也可以仅有一个反射面是曲面,第二反射镜105同理。
针对相关技术中曲面冷光镜难以加工的特点,本申请实施例提供的用于抬头显示的光学模组,由偏光防尘膜106和滤光元件103来解决和改善阳光倒灌的问题,偏光防尘膜106阻止一半左右的外界光进入用于抬头显示的光学模组内,而对图像光没有影响;滤光元件103反射阳光倒灌时到达图像生成元件102表面的红外光、紫外光,对于图像光没有影响。其优点是可以把用于抬头显示的光学模组成像用的两个反射镜均做成曲面,有利于在成像时把成像质量优化到相对较好的状态,从而使整个用于抬头显示的光学模组获得比较好的像质,由于AR HUD需要有更远的虚像距离,更大的视场角,这个优点在AR HUD中尤为明显。
本申请的另一些实施例还提供了一种用于抬头显示的光学系统,该光学系统包括背光模组101和根据本申请的一些实施例所提供的用于抬头显示的光学模组,用于抬头显示的光学模组的图像生成元件102位于背光模组101的出光侧,也就是背光模组101出射的光源经图像生成元件102后形成图像光,产生图像信号。
该用于抬头显示的光学系统包含与前述实施例中的用于抬头显示的光学模组相同的结构和有益效果。用于抬头显示的光学模组的结构和有益效果已经在前述实施例中进行了详细描述,在此不再赘述。
将上述用于抬头显示的光学系统应用于车辆时,本申请再一些实施例还提供了一种车辆,该车辆包括车辆本体和根据本申请的另一些实施例所提供的用于抬头显示的光学系统,用于抬头显示的光学系统设置于车辆本体上,且用于抬头显示的光学系统的阻光组件和接收端分别位于车辆本体的挡风玻璃107的两侧。
将用于抬头显示的光学系统设置于车辆本体上,阻光组件和接收端分别位于车辆本体的挡风玻璃107的两侧,其成像原理为:图像生成元件102加载需要显示的信息,此处的信息可包括车辆当前时速、导航等信息,背光模组101产生均匀的光源照亮图像生成元件102形成图像光,然后图像光经过滤光元件103、第一反射镜104、第二反射镜105以及偏光防尘膜106后射向挡风玻璃107,经挡风玻璃107反射后进入驾驶员眼睛活动范围(眼盒108),此处眼盒108为接收端。上述各元件可构成一成像系统,图像光经成像系统在一定距离成一放大的虚像,驾驶员的眼睛在眼盒108范围内时,可观察到该虚像。
挡风玻璃107也可看成接收端,使用挡风玻璃107参与成像。对于图像光来说,挡风玻璃107反射一部分图像光,透射一部分图像光;同样地,对于外部外界光来说,也是会反射一部分外界光、透射一部分外界光的,对于某些角度的太阳光,透过挡风玻璃107后进入用于抬头显示的光学系统,经光学元件反射后会聚到图像生成元件102上,即产生阳光倒灌现象。通过阻光组件解决或改善阳光倒灌问题,以提高成像质量。
本申请实施例提供的车辆,通过设置用于抬头显示的光学系统,可把车辆当前时速、导航等信息经通过设置用于抬头显示的光学系统投影到挡风玻璃107上的光电显示装置上,在挡风玻璃107前方形成影像。驾驶员不用转头、低头,直接注视挡风玻璃107即可看到导航、车速信息,提高驾驶安全性。并通过用于抬头显示的光学系统,解决和改善阳光倒灌问题,使驾驶员能在挡风玻璃107上看到质量较好的图像,提高驾驶员体验的舒适度。
以上所述仅为本申请的实施例而已,并不用于限制本申请的保护范围,对于本领域的技术人员来说,本申请可以有各种更改和变化。凡在本申请的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本申请的保护范围之内。
工业实用性
本申请提供了一种用于抬头显示的光学模组及其光学系统、车辆,用于抬头显示的光学模组包括依次设置的图像生成元件和阻光组件,所述图像生成元件用于形成图像信号,所述图像信号透过所述阻光组件入射接收端;所述阻光组件还用于根据偏振方向和/或波长使外界光中的部分光透过。图像信号经阻光组件时不受或极少受阻光组件的影响,外界光依次经阻光组件和图像生成元件,外界光经图像生成元件后不产生图像,但是外界光的光热量会聚集在图像生成元件上,增大图像生成元件的温度,采用阻光组件以滤除大部分的 外界光,使少部分外界光通过,降低外界光在图像生成元件上的光热量,降低图像生成元件的温度,保证图像质量。
此外,可以理解的是,本申请的用于抬头显示的光学模组及其光学系统、车辆是可以重现的,并且可以用在多种工业应用中。例如,本申请的用于抬头显示的光学模组及其光学系统、车辆可以用于抬头显示技术领域。
