Problems solved by technology

[0010] Pivot devices installed in vehicles for pivoting the display unit are usually adapted to tight spaces and are correspondingly not robust enough
It can thus happen that the pivoting device is damaged due to external influences, for example in the form of pressure, which are caused by an incorrect operation of the user.

Embodiment Construction

[0039] exist figure 1 shows the operating situation in which the user acts on the display unit 11 by means of the finger 13 with an excessive force or force F that could damage the mechanics of the oscillating device—as indicated by arrows 31 , 32 superior. Here, the pivoting device is surrounded by an ambient device 15 in the form of a center console, as also shown by sections a, b and c. In the environmental device 15 the movement of the pivoting device is limited by the associated parts, namely the end stops 1 , 2 and the hinge which connects the support element 10 to the environmental device 15 in an articulated manner via the hinge rods 22 , 23 . The carrier element 10 is likewise connected in an articulated manner to the display unit 11 , as indicated by the movement path K in section a.

[0040] The mechanical structure of the pivoting device can be damaged and the force F exerted by the user and indicated by the arrows 31 , 32 acts on the end stop 2 via the display ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for protecting a display device in a vehicle from being damaged by a harmful force from a user. A swinging arrangement which swings the display device comprises at least one sensor. When the force applied to the display device and exerted by the user is determined by means of the at least one sensor, and when the force determined by the at least one sensor exceeds a threshold value provided in advance, at least one warning that can be sensed by the user is emitted. The force is additionally at least partially absorbed by at least one preset flexible end stopping part, so that the swinging of the display unit is limited. The invention further relates to a corresponding swining arrangement.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pivoting device with overload protection for a display unit in a vehicle. Background technique [0002] In order to display information such as a route, a display unit, ie a display screen, is used in the vehicle, which is usually designed as a so-called touch screen, ie a touch-sensitive display screen. In order to make an input on the respective display unit, the user has to act on the respective position of the display unit with the aid of an input means, which can also be a finger of the user, for example in the form of pressure. The acting forces are processed by the control electronics included in the display unit and the user input is evaluated in order to react accordingly. [0003] Since such a display unit distracts the user, for example the driver, and is not always necessary, it is advisable to design the display unit to be pivotable so that it is not visible in the non-functional state and accordingly Provides ...
