Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle technology, specifically to an instrument panel assembly and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, an increasing number of vehicles are equipped with head-up display (HUD) systems. HUDs project important driving information such as speed and navigation onto the windshield in front of the driver, allowing them to see this information without looking down or turning their heads. In recent years, HUDs have evolved from W-HUDs to AR-HUDs. AR-HUDs incorporate AR technology into the HUD optical projection system, overlaying digital images onto the real world we see, making the projected information blend seamlessly with the actual driving environment. However, with this evolution, the size of HUDs has also increased. This has led to insufficient space in front of and behind the HUD at the driver's position (in the Y-axis, the direction of vehicle travel), making it impossible to arrange a driver's side air duct that meets CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) requirements. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides an instrument panel assembly and a vehicle to solve the problem that the large space occupied by the head-up display system leads to insufficient space and makes it impossible to arrange the driver's side air duct.

The air inlet and the air outlet are respectively arranged on both sides of the head-up display system along a first direction. The driver's side air duct bends downward along a second direction to form a groove structure. The head-up display system is located at the groove structure.

[0009] Beneficial effects: The airflow inlet and the airflow outlet are respectively arranged on both sides of the head-up display system along the first direction. The driver's air duct bends downward along the second direction to form a groove structure. The head-up display system is located at the groove structure, so that the driver's air duct can bypass the head-up display system from the bottom. This allows the driver's air duct to connect with the air outlet of the air conditioner to deliver the airflow of the air conditioner to the appropriate position, while also saving space in the front and rear directions of the head-up display system. This ensures that the driver's air duct has sufficient arrangement space, so that the driver's air duct can effectively meet the requirements of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics).
