Problems solved by technology

However, because the display device is not used in the storage position, the degree of movement of the display device when in use is effectively limited to the reach of the operator's hand
In addition, when the operation portion is formed of a remote operation controller, it is often difficult to integrally arrange a plurality of switches at appropriate positions

Embodiment Construction

[0035] Various embodiments for realizing the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] figure 1 is a functional block diagram showing the main configuration of the vehicle input device according to the first embodiment of the present invention. figure 2 is a perspective view showing an exemplary state where the vehicle input device of the present invention is mounted on a motor vehicle.

[0037] Such as figure 1 As shown, the vehicle input device of this embodiment includes an operation unit 150 , a display 140 and an operation device control ECU 170 .

[0038] Operation unit 150 is provided on display 140 of touch-panel display 200 . In other words, both the operation section 150 and the display 140 are realized by the touch panel display 200 which may have a general structure. Such as figure 2 As shown, touch panel display 200 is disposed on the instrument panel. The touch panel display 200 is configured so that i...

Abstract

A vehicle input device has an operating part (150) arranged within the passenger compartment and a signal processing part (172) that processes signals input through the operating part (150). The device includes a movable support mechanism that supports the operating part (150) to move between a distant position away from an operator and a nearby position close to the operator, a motor (210) for generating a drive force to displace the operating part (150), a control part (174) for controlling the motor (210), and an operation intention detector (220) for detecting an operator's intention to operate the operating part (150). The control part (174) controls the motor (210) to displace the operating part (150) into the nearby position if the operator's operation intention is detected by the operation intention detector (220).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle input device having an operation portion arranged in a vehicle compartment and operable by an operator, and a signal processing unit for processing a signal input through the operation portion. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there is known an in-vehicle navigation device characterized by including a movement mechanism for displacing a plurality of stacked touch panel display devices into a side-by-side arrangement and also for moving the side-by-side display devices Move back to the original stacked reserve position (see, for example, Japanese Patent Application Publication No. JP-A-2001-280979). [0003] However, the arrangement position of the operation portion operated by the vehicle occupant (operator) is limited within the reach of the operator, which poses a problem that the degree of freedom in arrangement is reduced. For example, in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. JP-A-2001-...
