However, existing ICCs still have numerous shortcomings in their design and application. First, heat dissipation is particularly problematic. Traditional fan-based cooling methods are not only unstable but also prone to noise. Furthermore, the built-in signal transceiver (antenna) is shielded by the housing, resulting in unstable signal reception. Furthermore, measures to enhance the signal often come with a significant increase in cost. Therefore, we propose an intelligent cockpit controller and vehicle to address these issues.

[0033] like Figure 1 — Figure 7 The embodiment shown.
[0034] The controllers of existing smart cockpits usually use fans for heat dissipation. Since fans usually generate certain noise when dissipating heat and the heat dissipation effect is unstable, the present application sets a heat dissipation structure on the outer surface of the shell 100 to achieve active heat dissipation, making the heat dissipation more stable and preventing noise products; the existing signal transceiver 300 is usually set inside, and the received and transmitted signals are easily shielded by the shell, resulting in poor signals and unstable signals. For this reason, the present application enhances the strength of the received and transmitted signals by setting the signal transceiver 300 outside.
[0035] The present application provides an intelligent cockpit controller, which includes a housing 100, a connecting structure 200, a signal transceiver 300 and a circuit board 400; the housing 100 has an installation chamber, and a heat dissipation structure is provided on the outer surface of the housing 100. The housing 100 is installed on a vehicle, and the connecting structure 200 is provided on the housing 100. The housing 100 is installed on the vehicle via the connecting structure 200. The signal transceiver 300 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the housing 100. The circuit board 400 is located in the installation chamber of the housing 100, and the circuit board 400 is fixedly connected to the housing 100.
[0036] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present application sets a heat dissipation structure on the outer surface of the shell 100, and dissipates the heat generated by the circuit board 400 inside the shell 100 through the heat dissipation structure, thereby reducing the heat inside the shell 100 and enabling the circuit board 400 to operate within the corresponding temperature range. The heat dissipation structure of the present application mainly increases the heat dissipation area by increasing the surface area, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. For this reason, the present application adopts the method of increasing the heat dissipation area without generating corresponding noise. Compared with the existing method of using a fan to achieve heat dissipation, the noise is smaller and the heat dissipation is more stable.
[0037] Continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present application installs the signal transceiver 300 on the outer surface of the housing 100. Compared with the existing method of setting the signal transceiver 300 inside the housing 100, setting the signal transceiver 300 outside will not be blocked by the shell of the housing 100, that is, there will be no obstacles when the signal transceiver 300 is sending and receiving signals, and the signal will be stronger and more stable when sending and receiving signals.
[0038] It should be noted here that a processor chip capable of processing data, such as a CPU, can be installed on the circuit board 400, mainly to dissipate the heat generated by the processor on the circuit board 400. Of course, it can also dissipate the heat generated by other electronic components on the circuit board 400.
[0039] The housing 100 includes an upper shell 110 and a lower shell 120 . The upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120 define an installation cavity. A baffle 130 is detachably installed at an opening of the installation cavity.
[0040] See Figure 2 As shown, in order to be able to fix the circuit board 400, an installation chamber that can accommodate the circuit board 400 is defined between the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120, and a baffle 130 is also provided to shield the installation chamber so that the circuit board 400 is located in the installation chamber.
[0041] In this embodiment, the circuit board 400 has multiple data interfaces, and different models of circuit boards 400 have different data interfaces. In order to enable the circuit board 400 to process data from the outside, the baffle 130 is provided with multiple avoidance openings for connecting the data lines to the data interfaces on the circuit board 400. Specifically, the baffle 130 can be connected to the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120 by screws. When a different circuit board 400 needs to be replaced, it is only necessary to select the baffle 130 that is compatible with the circuit board 400 for installation, thereby improving interchangeability.
[0042] Furthermore, the circuit board 400 includes a first plate body 410 and a second plate body 420. The first plate body 410 is located above the second plate body 420. The first plate body 410 can be fixedly installed on the upper shell 110 by screws, and the second plate body 420 can be fixedly installed on the lower shell 120 by screws. Specifically, the main heating element on the first plate body 410 is in contact with the inner wall of the upper shell 110, and corresponding thermal grease can be applied between the heating element and the inner wall of the upper shell 110. The existing main heating element is generally a chip, that is, the chip is in contact with the inner wall of the upper shell 110 and thermal grease is applied between the two, so that the heat generated by the chip is guided to the upper shell 110 through the thermal grease, and then the heat is dissipated through the heat dissipation structure; the installation method of the second plate body 420 is the same as that of the first plate body 410, and will not be repeated here.
[0043] The heat dissipation structure includes first fins 500 that are evenly spaced apart and arranged on the upper surface and at least one side surface of the upper housing 110 .

[0045] See Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the heat dissipation structure in the present application mainly comprises a first fin 500 provided on the upper shell 110 and a second fin 600 provided on the lower shell 120. The first fin 500 and the second fin 600 are used to increase the heat dissipation area with the outside, thereby realizing the heat dissipation function. In order to further improve the heat dissipation efficiency, the interior of the installation chamber can be connected to the outside through the connecting hole 700 to improve heat dissipation.
[0046] It should be noted that the fins referred to by the first fin 500 and the second fin 600 are mainly used to increase the area of contact with the outside and are in sheet shape. The material is generally made of copper or other metals that are easy to conduct heat and are mainly used for heat dissipation.
[0047] The thickness of the first fin 500 is a, the spacing between adjacent first fins 500 is b, and the height of the first fin 500 is h, wherein 1.5 mm ≤ a ≤ 3 mm, 6 mm ≤ b ≤ 14 mm, and 5 mm ≤ h ≤ 15 mm are satisfied.
[0048] See Figure 5 As shown, the first fin 500 protrudes from the surface of the upper shell 110. In order to increase the contact area between the upper shell 110 and the outside to provide a sufficient heat dissipation area, the first fin 500 needs to be limited. In this embodiment, the thickness of the first fin 500 can be 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm or 3mm. In this embodiment, the thickness of the first fin 500 can be selected to be 3mm, and the cross-section of the first fin 500 can be a trapezoid, a rectangle or the like; the distance between adjacent first fins 500 can be 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, 11mm, 12mm, 13mm or 14mm, etc.; the height of the first fin 500 can be 5mm, 6m, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, 11mm, 12mm, 13mm, 14mm or 15mm, etc.

A hook 213 is provided at the end of the first connecting plate 211, and folding plates 214 are bent on both sides of the first connecting plate 211.
[0052] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the present application mainly realizes installation of the housing 100 on the vehicle through the first connecting bracket 210 and the second connecting bracket 220. Corresponding holes are provided on the first connecting bracket 210 and the second connecting bracket 220, and screws can be used for fixing the connection.
[0053] Continue reading Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, there are two first connecting brackets 210, and the two first connecting brackets 210 are respectively arranged at the corners on the same side of the upper shell 110. Specifically, the first connecting plate 211 and the second connecting plate 212 are integrally formed, and the first connecting plate 211 and the second connecting plate 212 are bent to form a certain angle to adapt to the angle of the corner of the upper shell 110. Furthermore, the corner of the upper shell 110 is ninety degrees, that is, the angle formed between the first connecting plate 211 and the second connecting plate 212 is also ninety degrees. The first connecting plate 211 and the second connecting plate 212 are also provided with holes for connection to the upper shell 110, and the connection between the first connecting plate 211, the second connecting plate 212 and the upper shell 110 can be achieved by screws.
[0054] Continue reading Figure 7 As shown, in order to enable the controller provided in this application to be installed faster, a hook 213 is set at the end of the first connecting plate 211. During installation, the hook 213 can be hung on the vehicle first, and then the controller can be fixedly connected to the vehicle by screws.
[0055] It should be noted here that in order to improve the bearing capacity of the first connecting plate 211, the two side edges of the first connecting plate 211 are bent upward or downward to form folding plates 214 to improve the bearing capacity of the first connecting plate 211 and make the first connecting plate 211 less likely to bend.
[0056] The second connecting bracket 220 includes a third connecting plate 221 fixedly disposed on the side surface of the housing 100 . The third connecting plate 221 is provided with at least one protruding plate 222 , and the protruding plate 222 is provided with a connecting hole 223 .
