Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automotive electronics and human-machine interface design, and particularly relates to a rotary central control structure for an in-vehicle central control screen. Background Art

[0002] With the development of in-vehicle central control screens towards touch screens, touch screens are widely popular due to their versatility and convenience. However, when performing operations such as adjusting the volume, the touch method is difficult to provide an intuitive tactile feedback. For example, when a passenger in the co-pilot seat adjusts the volume, the lack of a direct operation feeling of a physical knob causes inconvenience in use.

[0003] To solve the problem of insufficient tactile feeling, the prior art usually sets a physical knob below the central control screen. However, this design occupies valuable space in the central control area and destroys the integrity of the overall design of the central control screen. In addition, especially in mid- to low-end in-vehicle central control screens, the display area is large, and the BM area (black border area) is not reasonably utilized, resulting in waste of resources.

[0004] Some design solutions attempt to move the knob to both sides of the central control screen to reduce the occupation of the front space. However, such designs often face problems such as insufficient knob stability, complex installation, and potential damage to the display screen. This makes the existing solutions difficult to achieve the expected effect in practical applications.

[0005] Therefore, how to optimize the structural design of the central control screen while retaining the operation experience of a physical knob, reducing space occupation, and effectively utilizing the space of the BM area has become the technical problem to be solved by the utility model. Summary of the Utility Model

[0006] The technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide a rotary central control structure for an in-vehicle central control screen to solve the problems of insufficient tactile feeling, space occupation, and insufficient utilization of the BM area as mentioned in the above background art, aiming at the defects existing in the above prior art.

[0009] The in-vehicle navigation bezel includes a left side portion and a right side portion, and two knob bodies are provided, which are respectively installed on the left side portion and the right side portion of the in-vehicle navigation bezel;

[0010] One side portion of each knob body is connected to the corresponding side portion of the in-vehicle navigation bezel by a snap connection method and is close to the bottom position, and the snap connection portion of the knob body avoids the display area of the in-vehicle central control screen.

[0011] As a further solution of the present utility model, grooves for snap - fitting the knob body are provided at the bottoms of the left and right sides of the vehicle - mounted navigation bezel. The shape of the grooves matches the snap - fitting part of the knob body, so that the knob body is stably installed in the grooves by snap - fitting.

[0012] As a further solution of the present utility model, the connecting part of the knob body is located at the outer edge of the side of the vehicle - mounted navigation bezel and is stably installed by snap - fitting.

[0013] As a further solution of the present utility model, the snap - fit connection between the knob body and the vehicle - mounted navigation bezel is a detachable structure. The knob body is connected to the vehicle - mounted navigation bezel through detachable fasteners such as snap - fasteners or hooks, which is convenient for the maintenance and replacement of the knob.

[0014] As a further solution of the present utility model, the surface of the knob body is provided with textures or raised structures for enhancing friction. The knob body contacts the user's finger through the above - mentioned textures or raised structures to enhance the operating feel of the knob.

[0015] As a further solution of the present utility model, the grooves provided at the bottoms of the left and right sides of the vehicle - mounted navigation bezel are figure - eight - shaped grooves.

[0016] As a further solution of the present utility model, two snap - holes are provided in the grooves to match the snap - fitting part of the knob body, so that the knob body is stably installed in the grooves by snap - hole snap - fitting.

[0017] As a further solution of the present utility model, two snap - posts are provided on the snap - fitting part of the knob body to cooperate with the two snap - holes in the grooves. The snap - posts are connected to the snap - holes by screws, which further enhances the stability of the knob body and prevents it from moving during use.

[0018] As a further solution of the present utility model, the snap - fitting part of the knob body refers to the knob fixing bracket for supporting and installing the knob body.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0037] Embodiment 1:

[0038] In modern automotive design, the in-vehicle central control screen 1 is gradually evolving towards a touch screen. However, during actual driving, especially when frequently adjusting the volume, the touch screen operation lacks physical feedback, which can easily cause inconvenience for passengers in the co-pilot seat. When adjusting the volume on the touch screen, passengers often need to look at the screen located in the central control position, which increases the complexity of the operation. In addition, without a physical knob, traditional touch screens lack an intuitive operation method. Especially during vehicle driving, the sliding operation on the touch screen may not be precise enough, and it may also require multiple touches to bring up the volume adjustment interface, which is rather inconvenient.

[0039] The utility model provides a knob-type central control structure for an in-vehicle central control screen. By clamping and connecting the physical knob to the left side 9 and the right side 10 of the in-vehicle navigation bezel 2, it solves the problems of insufficient touch feeling and space occupation. In practical applications, this knob structure allows passengers in the co-pilot seat to precisely adjust the volume of the in-vehicle audio by turning the volume up / down knob, or switch the currently playing audio track by using the up / down song selection knob. This operation method is not only intuitive and easy to use, but also due to the physical feedback of the knob, passengers do not need to frequently observe the screen, achieving a more convenient and intuitive operation experience.

[0040] The specific application scenario is as follows: When a passenger in the co-pilot seat needs to adjust the volume, the sliding adjustment method of the traditional touch screen lacks physical feedback, is inconvenient to operate, and is not precise enough. In the knob-type central control structure of this embodiment, by installing the knob on both sides of the central control screen, passengers can directly adjust the volume by rotating the knob. The physical feedback of the knob enables passengers to accurately judge the adjustment amplitude by feel, without frequently checking the screen, thus effectively improving the intuitiveness and convenience of the operation.

[0041] The knob body 3 is fixed to the left side 9 and the right side 10 of the in-vehicle navigation bezel 2 through a clamping structure, adopting a design of an 8-shaped groove 4 cooperating with a clamping hole 5 to ensure the stability and durability of the knob during operation. Even during vehicle driving, the knob can remain stable and will not loosen or shift due to vibration. This design not only avoids the space occupation problem caused by installing a knob under the central control screen, but also effectively utilizes the relatively large BM area that medium and low-end in-vehicle central control screens 1 usually have, optimizing the layout of the entire central control area. This knob structure adopts a detachable clamping design, which facilitates the installation, maintenance, and replacement of the knob. Users can easily replace the knob according to personal habits or aesthetic needs, further enhancing the personalization of the vehicle interior and the user experience.

[0042] In addition, in order to further enhance the in-vehicle atmosphere and the aesthetic feeling of operating the knob, a light is provided on the upper surface of the knob body 3 in the present utility model. This lighting design can achieve the conversion of multiple colors, and users can select or change the lighting color according to their personal preferences, thereby increasing the aesthetic degree of in-vehicle decoration. The knob light not only has a decorative function, but also can provide visual guidance in the dark at night or in low-light environments, facilitating passengers to operate.

[0043] Generally speaking, the knob-type central control structure provided in this embodiment solves the problems of insufficient touch feeling, space occupation, and insufficient utilization of the BM area proposed in the background art. In specific applications, through the reasonable layout and stable installation of the knob, a safer and more convenient operation method is realized, while improving the overall design aesthetic feeling of the vehicle-mounted central control screen 1 and bringing a more comfortable driving experience to passengers.
