[0037] like Figure 1As shown, the instrument panel assembly provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes: a main instrument panel body upper piece 100, a main instrument panel body lower piece 200 and a functional module 300; the main instrument panel body upper piece 100 and the main instrument panel body lower piece 200 are detachably connected; the functional module 300 includes: a main instrument header module 310, a control key function module 320 and a display 330, and the main instrument header module 310, the control key function module 320 and the display 330 are detachably connected to the main instrument panel body upper piece 100 respectively.

[0038] Specifically, the main instrument panel upper piece 100 and the main instrument panel lower piece 200 are detachably connected by means of bolt connection or snap connection, and the functional module 300 is partitioned according to functional differences. The functional module 300 includes a main instrument header module 310, a control button functional module 320 and a display 330. The main instrument header module 310, the control button functional module 320 and the display 330 can be developed, designed and installed separately. When modifying the model, a single functional module can be retrofitted to improve the flexibility of iterative improvement of the instrument panel and reduce the cost of the modified design.

[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the main instrument head module 310 is located in front of the steering wheel installation area, and the main instrument head module 310, the control key function module 320 and the display 330 are spaced apart in a direction from the main driving area 001 to the co-pilot area 002; the control key function module 320 is raised relative to the upper piece 100 of the main instrument panel and extends in a direction close to the steering wheel installation area.

[0040] The control key function module 320 is configured to be in a suspended installation state, so the shift and common buttons on the control key function module 320 are close to the steering wheel, and the driver can easily reach the control key function module 320 .

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the upper piece 100 of the main instrument panel has a wrapping portion 101 surrounding the main instrument header module 310. The main instrument header module 310 is embedded in the inner side of the wrapping portion 101, which makes the installation more compact. Electrical components such as instruments, CAN bus, and electrical switch buttons can be integrated and installed inside the main instrument header module 310.

[0042] Furthermore, the main instrument meter module 310 includes: a meter body 311, a meter holder 312, a panel 313 and a meter frame 314; the meter body 311 is connected to the inner side of the wrapping portion 101, the meter holder 312 is connected to the meter body 311, the panel 313 is connected to the meter holder 312, and the meter frame 314 is connected to the panel 313. The meter body 311 is connected to the main instrument platform upper sheet 100 by bolts, the meter holder 312, the panel 313 and the meter frame 314 are connected in sequence, and a cap can be installed on the meter frame 314 to cover the bolt installation hole.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the functional module 300 is configured with an injection molded mounting seat, and the injection molded mounting seat is pre-embedded with fasteners for connecting the main instrument panel body upper piece 100. The fasteners can be configured as bolts, nuts or snaps to achieve quick assembly.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the instrument panel assembly further includes an auxiliary instrument panel body 400 connected to the main instrument panel body upper piece 100 and / or the main instrument panel body lower piece 200 ; the functional module 300 further includes an auxiliary instrument panel functional module 340 detachably connected to the auxiliary instrument panel body 400 .

[0045] In an optional embodiment, the main instrument panel upper piece 100, the main instrument panel lower piece 200 and the auxiliary instrument panel 400 are all configured as a polyurethane foam matrix, with the polyurethane foam matrix serving as a hard carrier, and the functional module 300 is installed on the hard carrier, and the wiring is hidden inside to ensure that there are no exposed wire harnesses and screws after assembly.

[0046] Furthermore, the main instrument panel upper piece 100, the main instrument panel lower piece 200 and the auxiliary instrument panel 400 are respectively provided with an openable and closable inspection cover 500, and the internal wiring harness and electrical components can be inspected by opening the inspection cover 500.

[0047] In an optional embodiment, the auxiliary instrument panel body 400 is movably connected to the main instrument panel body upper piece 100 and / or the main instrument panel body lower piece 200 to adjust the spatial size of the main driving area 001 .

[0048] The auxiliary instrument panel body 400 is movably connected to the main instrument panel body upper piece 100 or the main instrument panel body lower piece 200, or the auxiliary instrument panel body 400 can be movably connected to the main instrument panel body upper piece 100 and the main instrument panel body lower piece 200. The auxiliary instrument panel body 400 can slide or swing relative to the main instrument panel body upper piece 100 or the main instrument panel body lower piece 200, and can be locked by means of buckles or bolts, so as to adapt to the space requirements of the main driving area 001 and adaptively adjust the peripheral installation dimensions of the instrument panel assembly.

[0049] In another optional embodiment, the functional module 300 passes through the main instrument panel upper piece 100, and the functional module 300 is connected to the main instrument panel lower piece 200, so that the main instrument panel upper piece 100 is pressed between the functional module 300 and the main instrument panel lower piece 200, thereby improving the compactness of the installable structure and making the installation joint tighter.

[0050] like Figure 5 As shown, the main instrument panel upper sheet 100 has a shrinkage slope 102 that abuts against the top of the functional module 300, and the shrinkage slope 102 is inclined downward from front to back; when the main instrument panel upper sheet 100 is hit in front, the shrinkage slope 102 squeezes the functional module 300 to shrink downward. When hit in the front, the shrinkage slope 102 squeezes the functional module 300 to shrink downward, which can prevent the functional module 300 from being loosened and thrown upward, thereby ensuring the safety of the occupants to the greatest extent. In addition, the protruding functional module 300 can be provided with an easy-to-break part, which is damaged in time during the collision to avoid the convex part from colliding with the occupants. In the case of the functional module 300 breaking, the shrinkage slope 102 can also better squeeze the functional module 300 into the interior of the main instrument panel lower sheet 200, thereby preventing the damaged functional module 300 from splashing in the occupant area.

[0051] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the main instrument panel body upper plate 100 is provided with a plurality of installation stations, and the display 330 is installed at one of the installation stations. The installation position of the display 330 can be adjusted as needed, with flexible position and good compatibility. The display 330 can also be configured as an embedded type or an external type as needed.

[0052] In an optional embodiment, the display 330 is pivotally connected to the upper piece 100 of the main instrument panel to adjust the angle of the display 330 relative to the main driving area. When the display 330 is upgraded and improved, its installation angle can be adjusted according to the size and installation position of the improved display 330 so that the driver can easily view the information displayed by the display 330.

[0053] The commercial vehicle provided by the embodiment of the present invention is equipped with the instrument panel assembly described in the above-mentioned implementation mode. The commercial vehicle has the technical advantages of the above-mentioned instrument panel assembly, which will not be described in detail here.
