Problems solved by technology

First, the arrangement of heating wires in the steering wheel frame can only realize the function of heating the steering wheel, but does not have the function of cooling the steering wheel; second, the arrangement of ventilation holes in the steering wheel frame, although the hot and cold air generated by the air conditioner can be ventilated The hole is blown to the surface of the steering wheel to control the temperature of the steering wheel; however, since decorations such as leather covers are usually arranged outside the steering wheel frame, the effect of this method on the temperature control of the steering wheel is not ideal, and it also makes the manufacturing process of the steering wheel more complicated

Abstract

The invention discloses a temperature controllable steering wheel which comprises a steering wheel frame, a refrigeration assembly and a heating assembly, wherein the refrigeration assembly and the heating assembly are arranged on the steering wheel frame. A temperature sensor is arranged on the steering wheel frame. The temperature sensor, the refrigeration assembly and the heating assembly are respectively connected with an automobile control system. The temperature controllable steering wheel and a method for controlling the temperature of the steering wheel have two functions of refrigerating and heating. The temperature of the steering wheel is collected in real time through the temperature sensor, the heating assembly and the refrigeration assembly are controlled by the control system to work to enable the temperature of the steering wheel to be in a set value all the time, and driving comfort and driving safety are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to automobile parts, in particular to a temperature-controllable steering wheel and a temperature control method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the steering wheels of most motor vehicles on the market do not have the function of adjusting the hot and cold temperature according to the needs; thus, in the hot summer, drivers have to wear gloves in order to avoid slipping due to sweating in the palms of the steering wheel while holding the steering wheel for a long time; In winter, when the driver does not turn on the air conditioner in the car, he may wear gloves to avoid directly touching the cold steering wheel with his hands. Wearing gloves is likely to cause inflexible fingers and poor comfort for the driver, and it is also easy to accelerate driving fatigue and cause traffic accidents. [0003] At present, motor vehicle manufacturers mainly realize the temperature control of the steering wheel by arranging ...
