[0038] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a driving device in some embodiments of the application.

[0039] The driving device 10 is applied to a driving equipment, which can be a simulation racing car, a car or other, which is not limited here.

[0040] The driving device 10 comprises a steering wheel 101, a light assembly 102, a control assembly 103 and a control member 104. The steering wheel 101 is arranged in the driving device; the light assembly 102 is arranged on the driving device; the control assembly 103 comprises a lever switch 1031 and a steering engine 1032, and the lever switch 1031 is in communication connection with the light assembly 102; the control member 104 is in communication connection with the steering wheel 101, the lever switch 1031, the steering engine 1032 and the light assembly 102 respectively, and the control member 104 is configured to control the light assembly 102 to light up when the lever switch 1031 is in a first state, and control the lever switch 1031 to be in a second state through the steering engine 1032 when the rotation information of the steering wheel 101 meets a preset condition, so that the light assembly 102 stops lighting up.

[0041] In some embodiments, the specific position of the steering wheel 101 in the driving device can be determined according to actual conditions. For example, the steering wheel 101 is arranged below the instrument panel of the driving device.

[0042] In some embodiments, the specific position of the light assembly 102 on the driving device can be determined according to actual conditions. For example, the light assembly 102 is arranged at the front, rear or left and right sides of the driving device; or for example, the light assembly 102 is arranged around the left and right rearview mirrors of the driving device.

[0043] In some embodiments, the control assembly 103 is arranged in the driving device, and the specific position can be determined according to actual conditions. In an application scenario, the control assembly 103 does not have a direct connection relationship with the steering wheel 101.

[0044] In some embodiments, the lever switch 1031 is connected with the steering engine 1032, and when the state of the lever switch 1031 changes, the states of the steering engine 1032 and the light assembly 102 also change synchronously.

[0045] Specifically, when the lever switch 1031 is in the first state, the steering engine 1032 is in a first motion state, and at this time, the light assembly 102 is in a light-up state. When the lever switch 1031 is in the second state, the steering engine 1032 is in a second motion state, and at this time, the light assembly 102 is in a non-light-up state or a suspended light-up state.

[0046] The first state of the dial switch 1031 can be a triggered state, and the second state of the dial switch 1031 can be an untriggered state, or a stop-triggered state or a reset state. Specifically, when the dial switch 1031 is triggered, the control member 104 sends a light-on signal to the light assembly 102, and the light assembly 102 is lighted on; when the rotation information of the steering wheel 101 meets a preset condition, the control member 104 controls the steering engine 1032 to move, so as to control the dial switch 1031 through the steering engine 1032, so that the dial switch 1031 is reset, and the light assembly 102 is controlled to stop lighting.

[0047] In some embodiments, the rotation information of the steering wheel 101 includes a rotation direction and a rotation angle. The light assembly 102 at least includes a headlight, a turn light and a high-low light, etc.

[0048] In an application scenario, the control member 104 is configured to control the turn light to light on when the dial switch 1031 is in the first state, and control the dial switch 1031 to be in the second state through the steering engine 1032 when the rotation direction and the rotation angle of the steering wheel 101 meet a preset condition, so that the turn light stops lighting.

[0049] It can be understood that the rotation direction and the rotation angle of the steering wheel 101 meeting the preset condition can correspond to the driver operating the steering wheel 101 to complete the lane change of the driving device and complete the steering wheel 101 return operation, so as to pause the lighting of the turn light.

[0050] In other application scenarios, the control member 104 is configured to control the headlight or the high-low light to light on when the dial switch 1031 is in the first state, and control the dial switch 1031 to be in the second state through the steering engine 1032 when the rotation direction and the rotation angle of the steering wheel 101 meet a preset condition, so that the headlight or the high-low light stops lighting.

[0051] In other embodiments, the turn light is controlled to light on or not light on when the dial switch 1031 is in the first state or the second state, the headlight is controlled to light on or not light on when the dial switch 1031 is in the third state or the second state, the high beam is controlled to light on or not light on when the dial switch 1031 is in the fourth state or the second state, and the low beam is controlled to light on or not light on when the dial switch 1031 is in the fifth state or the second state. The first state, the third state, the fourth state and the fifth state of the dial switch 1031 can be a triggered state, and the second state of the dial switch 1031 can be a reset state.

[0052] It can be understood that the preset conditions of the rotation direction and the rotation angle of the steering wheel 101 involved in the state change of the dial switch 1031 controlled by the control member 104 are different when the dial switch 1031 is in different states.

[0053] In some embodiments, the control 104 can be a PC (Personal Computer) terminal, such as a notebook computer, a desktop computer or the like.

[0054] In other embodiments, the control 104 can be a CPU (Central Processing Unit), possibly an integrated circuit chip, and can also be a general purpose processor, a DSP (Digital Signal Processor), an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) or other programmable logic device, discrete gate or transistor logic, discrete hardware components.

[0055] The control 104 is in close-range wireless connection with the steering wheel 101, the lever switch 1031, the steering engine 1032 and the light assembly 102, respectively.

[0056] Optionally, the close-range wireless communication can be AP (Wireless Access Point) communication, WIFI (Wireless Fidelity), Bluetooth, ZigBee, Thread, Z-Wave, NFC (Near Field Communication), UWB (Ultra Wide Band), LiFi (Light Fidelity) or the like.

[0057] The driving device 10 provided in some embodiments of the present application can control the light assembly 102 to light up when the lever switch 1031 in the control assembly 103 is in the first state, and then change the state of the lever switch 1031 by using the steering engine 1032 according to the rotation information of the steering wheel 101, so that the state of the lever switch 1031 changes from the first state to the second state, and then drive the light assembly 102 to change the state, so that the control light assembly 102 stops lighting up.

[0058] Compared with the related art, the present application controls the light assembly 102 to light up by the lever switch 1031 and controls the light assembly 102 to stop lighting up by the steering engine 1032, which can reduce the need for manual operation of the lever switch 1031, and thus reduce the dependence on manual operation. Moreover, compared with the manual control mode, the control by the steering engine 1032 can improve the control accuracy.

[0059] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2is a structural schematic diagram of a dial lever switch in some embodiments of the present application. The dial lever switch 1031 includes a dial lever 201, a housing 202, and a dial piece 203. The housing 202 includes a first through hole 2021 (not directly shown due to angle reasons) and a second through hole 2022, one end of the dial lever 201 is arranged in the housing 202 through the first through hole 2021, and the other end of the dial lever 201 is arranged outside the housing 202; one end of the dial piece 203 is arranged in the housing 202 through the second through hole 2022, and the other end of the dial piece 203 is in contact with a steering engine 1032.

[0060] When the dial lever 201 is in the first state, the control 104 drives the dial piece 203 to move from the first position to the second position of the second through hole 2022 through the steering engine 1032, and controls the light assembly 102 to light; and when the rotation information of the steering wheel 101 meets the preset condition, the dial piece 203 is controlled to return to the first position from the second position through the steering engine 1032, the dial lever 201 is in the second state, and the light assembly 102 stops lighting.

[0061] In some embodiments, the motion state of the steering engine 1032 can be clockwise motion, counterclockwise motion, or cyclic reciprocating motion. For example, when the steering engine 1032 moves clockwise, the dial piece 203 can be driven to move from the first position to the second position of the second through hole 2022, and when the steering engine 1032 moves counterclockwise, the dial piece 203 can be driven to move from the second position to the first position of the second through hole 2022.

[0062] In some embodiments, when the dial lever 201 is in the first state, the dial piece 203 as a whole moves from the first position to the second position of the second through hole 2022; when the rotation information of the steering wheel 101 meets the preset condition, the steering engine 1032 controls the dial piece 203 as a whole to move from the second position to the first position of the second through hole 2022 under the control of the control 104.

[0063] Alternatively, when the dial lever 201 is in the first state, one end of the dial piece 203 moves from the first position to the second position of the second through hole 2022; when the rotation information of the steering wheel 101 meets the preset condition, one end of the dial piece 203 is controlled to move from the second position to the first position of the second through hole 2022 under the control of the control 104.

[0064] In some embodiments, the light assembly 102 at least includes a headlight, a turn light, a high / low beam light, and the like. The knob is arranged on the lever 201, and the state of the headlight, the turn light, and the high / low beam light can be controlled by the knob; or the state of the headlight and the high / low beam light is controlled by the knob, and the state of the high beam light is controlled by the up, down, left, and right movements of the lever 201; or the third state, the fourth state, and the fifth state of the headlight and the high / low beam light are controlled by the knob, and the first state and the second state of the high beam light and the second state of the headlight, the high / low beam light, and the like are controlled by the up, down, left, and right movements of the lever 201.

[0065] It can be understood that when the state of the light is controlled by the up, down, left, and right movements of the lever 201, the movement angle of the lever 201 is limited. At this time, the lever 201 can be arranged to correspond to different states at different movement angles.

[0066] In some embodiments, the positional relationship between the lever switch 1031 and the steering gear 1032 can be determined according to actual conditions. For example, the steering gear 1032 is arranged above the lever switch 1031; or for example, the steering gear 1032 is arranged below the lever switch 1031.

[0067] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of the steering gear and the lever switch in some embodiments of the present application. The steering gear 1032 is arranged above the lever switch 1031, and the steering gear 1032 includes a steering gear body 301, an output shaft 302, and a driving member 303. One end of the output shaft 302 is arranged in the steering gear body 301, and the other end of the output shaft 302 is connected to the driving member 303.

[0068] Specifically, a through hole is arranged on the steering gear body 301, and one end of the output shaft 302 passes through the through hole and is arranged outside the steering gear body 301, and is connected to the driving member 303 arranged outside the steering gear body 301.

[0069] The steering gear body 301 controls the output shaft 302 and the driving member 303 to move in a first direction under the control of the control member 104, the driving member 303 abuts against the tab 203 and drives the tab 203 to move in the first direction, and the tab 203 moves from the first position to the second position of the second through hole 2022.

[0070] The steering gear body 301 controls the output shaft 302 and the driving member 303 to move in a second direction under the control of the control member 104, the driving member 303 abuts against the tab 203 and drives the tab 203 to move in the second direction, and the tab 203 moves from the second position to the first position; wherein the first direction is opposite to the second direction.

[0071] In some embodiments, the movement state of the output shaft 302 is the same as the movement state of the driving member 303.

[0072] For example, when the output shaft 302 moves clockwise, the driving member 303 also moves clockwise, thereby driving the paddle 203 to move from the first position to the second position of the second through hole 2022, or from the second position to the first position of the second through hole 2022.

[0073] For example, when the output shaft 302 moves clockwise, the driving member 303 also moves clockwise, thereby driving the paddle 203 to move from the first position to the second position of the second through hole 2022, or from the second position to the first position of the second through hole 2022.

[0074] In some embodiments, the steering engine 1032 further comprises a rotary resistor arranged in the steering engine body 301, which is used to control the movement of the output shaft 302 and the driving member 303, thereby controlling the reciprocation of the paddle 203 between the first position and the second position, thereby realizing position closed-loop control.

[0075] In some embodiments, the output shaft 302 is integrally formed with or detachably connected with the driving member 303. When the output shaft 302 is detachably connected with the driving member 303, the output shaft 302 is connected with the driving member 303 through a fastener, or a through hole on the driving member 303 accommodates the output shaft 302, or the like, which is not limited here. The fastener can be a screw, a nut, a bolt or the like.

[0076] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is a structural schematic diagram of the control member in some embodiments of the present application. The driving member 303 comprises a first part 3031, a second part 3032 and a third part 3033. The first part 3031 and the second part 3032 are arranged on the opposite sides of the third part 3033, and the paddle 203 is arranged between the first part 3031 and the second part 3032.

[0077] When the driving member 303 moves in the first direction, the first part 3031 of the driving member 303 abuts against the paddle 203 and drives the paddle 203 to move in the first direction.

[0078] When the driving member 303 moves in the second direction, the second part 3032 of the driving member 303 abuts against the paddle 203 and drives the paddle 203 to move in the second direction.

[0079] In some embodiments, the output shaft 302 is detachably connected with the driving member 303, as shown in detail in Figure 4 The third part 3033 is provided with a third through hole O for accommodating the output shaft 302.

[0080] In some embodiments, the first part 3031, the second part 3032 and the third part 3033 are integrally formed or detachably connected.

[0081] In some embodiments, the first component 3031 and the second component 3032 are arranged on opposite sides of the third component 3033, and the first preset angle between the first component 3031 and the third component 3033 and the second preset angle between the second component 3032 and the third component 3033 are formed.
