Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a cosmetic mirror, relating to the technical field of electronic equipment. The cosmetic mirror comprises a mirror surface part and a lighting part, wherein the mirror surface of the mirror surface part and the light-emitting surface of the lighting part are positioned on the same side; and the lighting part is a surface light source formed by an organic light-emitting diode panel. By adopting the cosmetic mirror with such a structure, the thickness of the light source in the cosmetic mirror can be reduced, and the quality of the light source can be improved.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A cosmetic mirror, comprising a mirror surface part and a lighting part, wherein a mirror surface of the mirror surface part and a light-emitting surface of the lighting part are positioned on the same side of the cosmetic mirror, an area of the mirror surface part and an area of the lighting part are adjustable; and the lighting part is a surface light source formed by an organic light-emitting diode panel. 2. The cosmetic mirror of claim 1 , wherein an angle between the mirror surface of the mirror surface part and the light-emitting surface of the lighting part is adjustable. 3. The cosmetic mirror of claim 2 , wherein a bendable connecting part for connecting the mirror surface part with the lighting part is arranged between the mirror surface part and the lighting part, so that the angle between the mirror surface and the light-emitting surface is adjustable. 4. The cosmetic mirror of claim 2 , further comprising: a dimming unit, which is used for adjusting the brightness of light emitted by the lighting part. 5. The cosmetic mirror of claim 2 , further comprising: a protective cover, which covers the mirror surface of the mirror surface part and the light-emitting surface of the lighting part in an openable and closeable manner. 6. The cosmetic mirror of claim 2 , wherein the mirror surface part is provided with a handheld area; and patterns are formed on a surface of the handheld area of the mirror surface part. 7. The cosmetic mirror of claim 1 , wherein the mirror surface part and the lighting part are integrated as an organic light-emitting diode panel; the organic light-emitting diode panel comprises a transparent organic light-emitting diode device and a reflective material layer formed on a surface of the transparent organic light-emitting diode device at one side thereof. 8. The cosmetic mirror of claim 7 , wherein the organic light-emitting diode panel is made of a flexible material. 9. The cosmetic mirror of claim 7 , further comprising: a control unit, which is used for controlling the organic light-emitting diode panel, so that the transparent organic light-emitting diode device in one area of the organic light-emitting diode panel is in a transparent state to form the mirror surface part, and the transparent organic light-emitting diode device in the other area of the organic light-emitting diode panel emits light to form the lighting part. 10. The cosmetic mirror of claim 9 , further comprising: a dimming unit, which is used for adjusting the brightness of light emitted by the lighting part. 11. The cosmetic mirror of claim 9 , further comprising: a protective cover, which covers the mirror surface of the mirror surface part and the light-emitting surface of the lighting part in an openable and closeable manner. 12. The cosmetic mirror of claim 7 , further comprising: a dimming unit, which is used for adjusting the brightness of light emitted by the lighting part. 13. The cosmetic mirror of claim 7 , further comprising: a protective cover, which covers the mirror surface of the mirror surface part and the light-emitting surface of the lighting part in an openable and closeable manner. 14. The cosmetic mirror of claim 7 , wherein the mirror surface part is provided with a handheld area; and patterns are formed on a surface of the handheld area of the mirror surface part. 15. The cosmetic mirror of claim 1 , further comprising: a solar cell, which is charged under the irradiation of a light source and is used for supplying power to the lighting part when the lighting part is needed for lighting. 16. The cosmetic mirror of claim 1 , further comprising: a dimming unit, which is used for adjusting the brightness of light emitted by the lighting part. 17. The cosmetic mirror of claim 16 , wherein the dimming unit comprises a dimming circuit, a touch dimming module and/or a photosensitive dimming module; the touch dimming module is used for controlling the dimming circuit according to a touch signal input by a user to adjust the brightness of light emitted by the lighting part; and the photosensitive dimming module is used for controlling the dimming circuit according to the brightness of ambient light to adjust the brightness of light emitted by the lighting part. 18. The cosmetic mirror of claim 1 , further comprising: a protective cover, which covers the mirror surface of the mirror surface part and the light-emitting surface of the lighting part in an openable and closeable manner. 19. The cosmetic mirror of claim 18 , further comprising: a switching unit, which is used for controlling the lighting part to perform lighting when the protective cover is opened to at least a preset angle. 20. The cosmetic mirror of claim 1 , wherein the mirror surface part is provided with a handheld area; and patterns are formed on a surface of the handheld area of the mirror surface part.
