SUMMARY

[0004] Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0005] The present embodiment aims to provide a display device for a vehicle that can rotate a display module to a desired angle of a rider or linearly move the display module to approach the rider.

[0006] Technical Solution to Solve the Problem

[0007] The display device for a vehicle of the present embodiment can include a moving frame configured to the display module, a first link connected to the moving frame by a first hinge, a second link connected to the moving frame by a second hinge, a first driving source to move the first link, a second driving source to move the second link, a guide pin configured to the moving frame, and a fixed frame formed with a guide path to guide the guide pin.

[0008] The guide path can include a rotation path to guide the guide pin about a rotation virtual axis, and a linear path connected to the rotation path to linearly guide the guide pin.

[0009] The rotation path can include an outer path connected to the linear path, and an inner path spaced apart from the outer path inward of the outer path and connected to the linear path.

[0010] The rotation path can include a first rotation path to guide the guide pin about a first rotation virtual axis, and a second rotation path connected to the first rotation path and guiding the guide pin about a second rotation virtual axis.

[0011] The linear path can be connected to a connection path of the first rotation path and the second rotation path.

[0012] The rotation path can further include a third rotation path to guide the guide pin about a third rotation imaginary axis, and a fourth rotation path connected to the third rotation path to guide the guide pin about a fourth rotation imaginary axis.

[0013] The linear path can be connected to a connection path of the third rotation path and the fourth rotation path.

[0014] One end of the linear path can be connected to a connection path of the first rotation path and the second rotation path, and the other end of the linear path can be connected to a connection path area of the third rotation path and the fourth rotation path.

[0015] The third rotation path can have a length smaller than a length of the first rotation path.

[0016] The fourth rotation path can have a length smaller than a length of the second rotation path.

[0017] A distance between a rear end of the third rotation path and a rear end of the fourth rotation path can be smaller than a distance between a rear end of the first rotation path and a rear end of the second rotation path.

[0018] The display module can operate in one of a first rotation mode in which the guide pin is guided by the first rotation path, a second rotation mode in which the guide pin is guided by the second rotation path, an extension mode in which the guide pin is guided by the linear path, a third rotation mode in which the guide pin is guided by the third rotation path, and a fourth rotation mode in which the guide pin is guided by the fourth rotation path.

[0019] In the first rotation mode and the second rotation mode, the display module can be rotated to be inclined at a first angle.

[0020] In the third rotation mode and the fourth rotation mode, the display module can be rotated to be inclined at a second angle smaller than the first angle.

[0028] The second rotating mechanism can rotate the second screw in one direction to move the second nut in a direction approaching the occupant, and then rotate the second screw in another direction opposite to the one direction to move the second nut in a direction away from the occupant.

[0029] Inventive Effects

[0030] According to the present embodiment, the display module can be rotated to a desired angle or linearly moved by the occupant, thereby corresponding to more diverse needs of consumers.

[0031] In addition, the display module can be linearly moved to approach the user, thereby allowing an occupant with a short arm length to conveniently operate the display module.

[0032] In addition, the rotation angle of the display module can be changed to an angle that is convenient for the occupant to operate, thereby allowing the occupant to more conveniently operate the display module.

[0033] In addition, if light reflection is severe at a certain angle of the display module, the display can be rotated to another angle at which light reflection is not severe, thereby improving the visibility of the display module. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0177] In the case where the display panel 1 is sharply rotated to the left side, the left end of the display panel 1 can be accommodated in the groove or the hole formed in the left side of the display frame 10, In the case where the display panel 1 is sharply rotated to the right side, the right end of the display panel 1 can be accommodated in the groove or the hole formed in the right side of the display frame 10.

[0178] Figure 5 is a view of the moving frame rotated about a first rotation imaginary axis, Figure 1 is a view of the moving frame rotated about a second rotation imaginary axis, Figure 6 is a view of the moving frame moving toward the occupant, Figure 1 is a view of the moving frame rotated about a third rotation imaginary axis after moving toward the occupant, Figure 7 is a view of the moving frame rotated about a fourth rotation imaginary axis after moving toward the occupant. Figure 1 Figure 8 As shown in Figure 1 the display module 1 can operate in a first rotation mode in which the guide pin 8 is guided by a first rotation path S1. Figure 9 Figure 1 The first rotation mode can be a left swing mode in which the display module 1 is rotated to the left side about a first rotation imaginary axis V1.

[0179] As shown in Figure 5 the display module 1 can operate in a first rotation mode in which the guide pin 8 is guided by a first rotation path S1.

[0180] The first rotation mode can be a left swing mode in which the display module 1 is rotated to the left side about a first rotation imaginary axis V1.

[0181] In the first rotation mode, the display module 1 can be rotated by a first angle θ1 in a left inclination direction LC about the first rotation imaginary axis V1.

[0182] As an example, the first angle θ1 can be 20°.

[0183] As shown in Figure 6 the display module 1 can operate in a second rotation mode in which the guide pin 8 is guided by a second rotation path S2.​​

[0184] The second rotation mode can be a right-side swing mode in which the display module 1 rotates to the right with the second imaginary rotation axis V2 as the center.

[0185] In the second rotation mode, the display module 1 can rotate by a first angle θ1 in the rightward tilt direction RC with the second imaginary rotation axis V2 as the center.

[0186] As an example, the first angle θ1 can be 20°.

[0187] like Figure 7 As shown, display module 1 can operate in a telescopic mode guided by linear path L via guide pin 8.

[0188] The telescopic mode can be a mode in which the display module 1 moves toward the passenger in the forward-backward X direction.

[0189] In telescopic mode, display module 1 can retract a distance equivalent to the length of the linear path L from the reference position.

[0190] like Figure 8 As shown, the display module 1 can operate in a third rotation mode guided by the third rotation path S3 via the guide pin 8.

[0191] The third rotation mode can be a telescopic left-side swing mode in which the display module 1 moves toward the passenger and rotates to the left with the third imaginary rotation axis V3 as the center.

[0192] In the third rotation mode, the display module 1 can move backward by a distance equivalent to the length of the linear path L from the reference position, and then rotate by a second angle θ2 in the left tilt direction LC with the third imaginary rotation axis V3 as the center.

[0193] The second angle θ2 can be smaller than the first angle θ1. For example, the second angle θ2 can be 15°.

[0194] like Figure 9 As shown, the display module 1 can operate in a fourth rotation mode guided by the fourth rotation path S4 via the guide pin 8.

[0195] The fourth rotation mode can be a telescopic right-swing mode in which the display module 1 moves toward the passenger and rotates to the right with the fourth rotation imaginary axis V4 as the center.

[0196] In the fourth rotation mode, the display module 1 can move backward by a distance equivalent to the length of the linear path L from the reference position, and then rotate by a second angle θ2 in the rightward tilt direction RC with the fourth rotation imaginary axis V4 as the center.

[0197] The second angle θ2 can be smaller than the first angle θ1. For example, the second angle θ2 can be 15°.

[0198] The display module 1 can operate in one of a first rotation mode, a second rotation mode, an extension mode, a third rotation mode, and a fourth rotation mode.

[0199] The display module 1 can be rotated to be inclined at a first angle θ1 in the first rotation mode or the second rotation mode.

[0200] The display module 1 can be rotated to be inclined at a second angle θ2 gentler than the first angle θ1 in the third rotation mode or the fourth rotation mode.

[0201] As the difference between the moving distance of the first nut 63 and the moving distance of the second nut 73 decreases, the display module 1 can be inclined more gently.

[0202] A first difference D1 between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 in the first rotation mode or the second rotation mode (refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 ) can be greater than a second difference D2 between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 in the third rotation mode or the fourth rotation mode (refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 ).

[0203] On the other hand, the second angle θ2 can be changed in response to an angle change request signal.

[0204] The processor can transmit the angle change request signal to the vehicle display device in accordance with an input of the occupant or the like, and the first rotation mechanism or the second rotation mechanism can change the second angle θ2 in accordance with the angle change request signal.

[0205] The second angle θ2 can be changed when the moving amount of either of the first nut 72 and the second nut 73 is changed.

[0206] For example, as shown in Figure 8 , in a state in which the display panel 1 is rotated to the left side, the first rotation mechanism can move the first nut 63 in the forward direction, the second difference D2 between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 can increase, and the second angle θ2 can increase.

[0207] As shown in Figure 8 , in a state in which the display panel 1 is rotated to the left side, the second rotation mechanism can move the second nut 73 in the rearward direction, the second difference D2 between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 can increase, and the second angle θ2 can increase.

[0208] As shown in Figure 9As shown in FIG. 1, in a state in which the display panel 1 is rotated to the right side, the first rotation mechanism can move the first nut 63 in the rear direction, the second difference D2 between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 can decrease, and the second angle θ2 can increase.

[0209] As shown in FIG. 1, in a state in which the display panel 1 is rotated to the right side, the first rotation mechanism can move the first nut 63 in the rear direction, the second difference D2 between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 can decrease, and the second angle θ2 can increase. Figure 9

[0210] The second angle θ2 is smaller than the first angle θ1 and can be changed in multiple stages.

[0211] For example, in a case where the first angle θ1 is 20°, the second angle θ1 can be in a range of 15° to 19°, and can be 15° or 16° or 17° or 18° or 19°.

[0212] Figure 10 FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a process in which a moving frame of another example of the vehicle display device according to the present embodiment is moved toward an occupant and then rotated to the left side.

[0213] In Figure 10 FIG. 1, in the third rotation mode, the display module 1 is rotated to be inclined at a third angle θ3 steeper than the first angle θ1.

[0214] Figure 10 (a) of FIG. 1 is a diagram showing that the moving frame 2 is rotated to the left side about a third rotation virtual axis V3 after being moved toward an occupant, and illustrates that the display module 1 is rotated to be inclined at the second angle θ2.

[0215] Figure 10 (b) of FIG. 1 is a diagram showing that the moving frame 2 is rotated to the left side about the third rotation virtual axis V3 after being moved toward an occupant, and illustrates that the display module 1 is rotated to be inclined at the third angle θ3. Figure 10

[0216] An example of the first angle θ1 can be 20°, an example of the second angle θ2 can be 15°, and an example of the third angle θ3 can be 30°.

[0217] ​​The first rotation mechanism can rotate the first screw 62 in one direction to move the first nut 63 in a direction approaching the rider, and then can rotate the first screw 62 in another direction opposite to the one direction to move the first nut 63 in a direction away from the rider. In the third rotation mode, the first rotation mechanism can rotate the first screw 62 in one direction to move the first nut 63 in a direction approaching the rider, and then can rotate the first screw 62 in another direction opposite to the one direction to move the first nut 63 in a direction away from the rider.

[0218] In the third rotation mode, as shown in (a) of FIG. 10, Figure 10 the first nut 63 can move in a direction approaching the rider (e.g., a rear direction) after moving in a direction away from the rider (e.g., a front direction), as shown in (b) of FIG. 10. Figure 10

[0219] In the third rotation mode, the second nut 73 can move in a direction approaching the rider (e.g., a rear direction).

[0220] The third rotation mode can include the first mode, the second mode, and the third mode.

[0221] The first mode, the second mode, and the third mode can be sequentially implemented.

[0222] In the first mode, the movement amount of the first nut 63 and the movement amount of the second nut 63 can be the same, and the display module 1 can move like the stretch mode.

[0223] In the second mode, the movement amount of the first nut 63 can be less than the movement amount of the second nut 73, and the difference between the maximum movement distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum movement distance of the second nut 73 can be a second difference D2, and the display module 1 can be tilted at a second angle θ2 as shown in (a) of FIG. 9. Figure 10

[0224] The third mode can be implemented after the second mode, and in the third mode, the first nut 63 can move in a direction away from the rider (i.e., a front direction).

[0225] The third mode can be a mode in which the driving direction of the first motor 64 is different from that of the second mode. If the driving direction of the first motor 64 is the clockwise direction in the second mode, the driving direction of the first motor 64 can be the counterclockwise direction in the third mode.

[0226] If the first nut 63 moves in a direction away from the rider (i.e., a front direction), the display module 1 can be tilted at a third angle θ3 as shown in (b) of FIG. 10. Figure 10

[0227] ​​​If the third mode ends, the difference between the maximum movement distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum movement distance of the second nut 73 can be a third difference D3, and the third difference D3 can be greater than the second difference D2.

[0228] The third angle θ2 can be changed in response to an angle change request signal.

[0229] The processor can transmit the angle change request signal to the vehicle display device in accordance with an input of the occupant or the like, and the first rotation mechanism or the second rotation mechanism can change the third angle θ2 in accordance with the angle change request signal.

[0230] The third angle θ3 can be changed when the movement amount of either of the first nut 72 and the second nut 73 is changed.

[0231] For example, as shown in Figure 10 , in a state in which the display panel 1 is turned to the left side, the second rotation mechanism can move the second nut 73 in the forward direction, the third difference D3 between the maximum movement distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum movement distance of the second nut 73 can decrease, and the third angle θ3 can decrease.

[0232] The third angle θ2 is greater than the first angle θ1 and can be changed in multiple stages.

[0233] For example, in a case where the first angle θ1 is 20°, the third angle θ1 can be in a range of 22° to 30°, and can be 22° or 24° or 26° or 28° or 30°.

[0234] Figure 11 is a diagram showing a process in which the moving frame of another example of the vehicle display device of the present embodiment moves toward the occupant and then turns to the right side.

[0235] In Figure 11 , it is exemplified that in the fourth turning mode, the display module 1 is turned to be inclined at a third angle θ3 that is steeper than the first angle θ1.

[0236] Figure 11 (a) of

[0237] Figure 11 (b) of Figure 11 is a diagram showing a state in which the moving frame 2 shown in (a) of

[0238] An example of the first angle θ1 can be 20°, an example of the second angle θ2 can be 15°, and an example of the third angle θ3 can be 30°.

[0239] In the fourth rotation mode, the first nut 63 can move in a direction (e.g., a rear direction) approaching the rider.

[0240] The second rotation mechanism can rotate the second screw 72 in one direction to move the second nut 73 in a direction approaching the rider, and then can rotate the second screw 72 in another direction opposite to the one direction to move the second nut 73 in a direction away from the rider.

[0241] In the fourth rotation mode, the second rotation mechanism can rotate the second screw 72 in one direction to move the second nut 73 in a direction approaching the rider, and then can rotate the second screw 72 in another direction opposite to the one direction to move the second nut 73 in a direction away from the rider.

[0242] In the fourth rotation mode, as shown in (a) of FIG. 17, Figure 11 the second nut 73 can move in a direction (e.g., a rear direction) approaching the rider, and then as shown in (b) of FIG. 17, Figure 11 the second nut 73 can move in a direction (e.g., a front direction) away from the rider.

[0243] The fourth rotation mode can include the first mode, the second mode, and the third mode, like the third rotation mode.

[0244] The first mode, the second mode, and the third mode can be sequentially implemented.

[0245] In the first mode, the moving amount of the first nut 63 and the moving amount of the second nut 63 can be the same, and the display module 1 can move like the stretch mode.

[0246] In the second mode, the moving amount of the second nut 73 can be less than the moving amount of the first nut 63, and the difference between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 can be a second difference D2, and the display module 1 can be tilted at a second angle θ2 as shown in (a) of FIG. 17. Figure 11

[0247] The third mode can be implemented after the second mode, and in the third mode, the second nut 73 can move in a direction (i.e., a front direction) away from the rider.

[0248] The third mode can be a mode in which the driving direction of the second motor 74 is different from that of the second mode. If the driving direction of the second motor 74 is the clockwise direction in the second mode, the driving direction of the second motor 74 can be the counterclockwise direction in the third mode.

[0249] If the second nut 73 moves in a direction (i.e., a front direction) away from the rider, the display module 1 can be tilted at a third angle θ3 as shown in (a) of FIG. 18.​Figure 11 As shown in (b), it is tilted at the third angle θ3.

[0250] If the third mode ends, the difference between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 can be a third difference D2, which can be greater than the second difference D1.

[0251] For example, such as Figure 10 As shown, when the display panel 1 is rotated to the right, the first rotating mechanism can move the first nut 63 forward, and the third difference D3 between the maximum moving distance of the first nut 63 and the maximum moving distance of the second nut 73 can be reduced, and the third angle θ3 can be reduced.

[0252] The third angle θ3 is greater than the first angle θ1 and can be changed in multiple segments.

[0253] For example, if the first angle θ1 is 20°, the third angle θ3 can be in the range of 22° to 30°, which can be 22°, 24°, 26°, 28°, or 30°.
