Abstract

The present disclosure provides a glass assembly (100) and a window assembly. The glass assembly (100) comprises a light guiding component comprising a glass body (110) and having a first surface (140) and a second surface (150) which are oppositely arranged, and incident light entering the light guiding component can be totally reflected between the first surface (140) and the second surface (150); a light-emitting structure (120) located in the light guiding component or arranged on the first surface (140) or the second surface (150) for guiding the incident light out from the second surface (150); a reflective layer (170) attached to at least a part of the peripheral edge (160) of the light guiding component to increase the reflection of the incident light inside the light guiding component. On the premise of not affecting the performance and aesthetics of the glass itself, the glass assembly (100) of the present disclosure can especially reduce the light brightness loss of the peripheral edge (160) of the glass assembly (100), so that the luminous effect is effectively enhanced and the user experience is improved. Through various combinations of different configurations of the edge (160) of the glass body (110) and different reflective layers (170), the glass assembly (100) of the present disclosure can be applied to various occasions to meet the diversified requirements of users.

A glass assembly (100), a vehicle window glass applying the glass assembly (100) and a vehicle with the vehicle window glass. The glass assembly (100) comprises a glass body (110) having a first surface (111) and a second surface (112) which are oppositely arranged, wherein at least a portion of incident light entering the glass body (110) is totally reflected between the first surface (111) and the second surface (112); a light guiding layer (120) arranged on the first surface (111) or the second surface (112) for guiding the incident light out of the second surface (112); an anti-reflection layer (130) attached to the second surface (112) to reduce the reflection of the light incident on the second surface (112) from outside of the glass body (110). According to the glass assembly (100) integrated with the anti-reflection layer (130), the light pollution reflected by the surface of the glass assembly (100) can be particularly reduced on the premise of not affecting the performance and aesthetics of the glass, and the user experience can be improved. By the combination of various laminated structures, the glass assembly (100) can be applied to various occasions to meet the diversified requirements of users.
