Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive column shifter technology, and in particular to a column shifter with ambient light and vibration feedback. Background Technology

[0002] As automotive technology matures, people are increasingly focused on driving safety and comfort. Traditionally, gear shifting is located directly on the driver's right, requiring the driver's right hand to be a considerable distance from the steering wheel when shifting gears. This is a drawback in terms of both safety and comfort. Therefore, more and more vehicles are incorporating column shifters below the steering wheel. However, current column shifters lack ambient lighting, have a monotonous color scheme, and lack vibration feedback, making them difficult to detect in case of accidental operation. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art by providing a column shifter with an ambient light ring and vibration feedback. When the vehicle is parked, the ambient light ring is illuminated, and when in reverse gear, the exciter vibrates, so that the driver can intuitively feel the current gear status of the vehicle.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A shift lever with an ambient light ring and vibration feedback includes a housing, a circuit board, a P-gear button, and a reset component. The circuit board is located inside the housing, and the P-gear button is slidably located at the end of the housing. A micro switch is correspondingly provided on the circuit board. The reset component is located between the P-gear button and the micro switch and resets the P-gear button to the outside of the housing. A bracket is provided inside the housing, and the circuit board is fixedly located on the bracket. An ambient light ring and a decorative ring are fixedly provided on the outer periphery of the bracket. The ambient light ring is pressed against the end of the housing through the decorative ring, and the ambient light ring extends into the decorative ring. Several first LED lights are provided on the circuit board corresponding to the position of the ambient light ring. The P-gear button is located at the end of the decorative ring and is slidably located on the bracket.

[0005] Using the above technical solution, pressing the P gear button inside the housing triggers a micro switch, which connects the circuit and illuminates the first LED light, lighting up the ambient light ring. The ambient light ring is partially exposed, allowing the driver to more intuitively perceive that the vehicle is currently parked, enhancing the in-vehicle atmosphere and improving safety. After releasing the P gear button, a reset component resets the P gear button.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is that an inner shell is connected to the P-position button, the inner shell is slidably disposed within the bracket, and a pressing rod is provided on the inner shell. The pressing rod is located at the end of the micro switch contact, and the reset member is located on one side of the pressing rod to drive the pressing rod to separate from the micro switch contact.

[0007] With the above-mentioned further configuration, pressing the P-position switch causes the inner shell to slide on the bracket. The pressure rod on the inner shell presses against the micro switch contact to trigger the micro switch to conduct the circuit and light up each of the first LEDs. Pressing the P-position button better drives the micro switch to start, making operation convenient.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that an exciter is provided inside the housing, the exciter is located below the support, the circuit board is located above the exciter, the exciter is electrically connected to the circuit board, a character plate is provided on the upper surface of the housing, and a number of second LEDs are provided on the circuit board.

[0009] With the above-mentioned further settings, when the column shifter is pushed down to enter the D position, the exciter does not trigger. When the column shifter is pushed up to enter the R position, the exciter is triggered, causing the shifter to vibrate. This allows the driver to more intuitively perceive the current gear position of the vehicle without causing confusion, thus improving safety. Furthermore, the driver can also perceive the current gear position by observing the gear indicator light on the display panel.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that the inner shell is provided with a plurality of guide grooves along its circumference, and the bracket is provided with corresponding guide protrusions, each guide protrusion being located in the corresponding guide groove.

[0011] The above-mentioned further design serves as a guide, making the P-gear button and inner shell slide more stably and smoothly on the bracket.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that the ambient light ring has several positioning grooves along its circumference, and the bracket has several corresponding positioning protrusions, each positioning protrusion being inserted into a corresponding positioning groove.

[0013] By adopting the above-mentioned further settings, the ambient aperture structure becomes stable and the light guiding effect is good.

[0014] A further improvement of this utility model: the housing includes a separate upper cover and a lower cover. The upper cover is connected to the bracket by fasteners, and the lower cover is connected to the bracket by a snap-fit ​​structure. The upper end face of the upper cover is provided with a cavity, the character piece is disposed in the cavity, and a through groove is provided at the bottom of the cavity corresponding to the position of each second LED light.

[0015] The above-mentioned further design, with its split-type structure, facilitates the installation of the internal structure, and features a simple installation structure, convenient operation, and good stability. Attached Figure Description

[0028] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a shift lever with an ambient light ring and vibration feedback includes a housing 1, a circuit board 2, a P (Park) button 3, and a reset component 4. The circuit board 2 is located inside the housing 1. The P button 3 is slidably disposed at the end of the housing 1. A micro switch 21 is correspondingly provided on the circuit board 2. The reset component 4 is located between the P button 3 and the micro switch 21, and resets the P button 3 outward from the housing 1. A bracket 5 is provided inside the housing 1. The circuit board 2 is fixedly disposed on the bracket 5. An ambient light ring 6 and a decorative ring 7 are fixedly disposed on the outer periphery of the bracket 5. The ambient light ring 6 is pressed against the end of the housing 1 by the decorative ring 7. Extending into the decorative ring 7, the circuit board 2 is provided with several first LED lights 22 corresponding to the position of the ambient light ring 6. The P gear button 3 is located at the end of the decorative ring 7 and is slidably mounted on the bracket 5. Pressing the P gear button 3 into the housing 1 triggers the micro switch 21. After the circuit is turned on, the first LED lights 22 are lit, illuminating the ambient light ring 6. The ambient light ring 6 is partially exposed, so the driver can more intuitively perceive that the vehicle is currently in a parked state, which enhances the atmosphere inside the vehicle and is highly safe. After releasing the P gear button 3, the P gear button 3 is reset by the reset component 4. The reset component 4 can be a spring or a return rubber.

[0029] The P-position button 3 is connected to an inner shell 31, which is connected to the P-position button 3 via a snap-fit ​​structure. The P-position button 3 has a connecting slot, and the inner shell 31 has a connecting block. The connecting block is inserted into the connecting slot to achieve connection. The inner shell 31 is slidably disposed within the bracket 5. The inner shell 31 has a pressing rod 311, which is located at the end of the contact of the micro switch 21. The reset member 4 is located on one side of the pressing rod 311 to drive the pressing rod 311 to separate from the contact of the micro switch 21. Pressing the P-position switch causes the inner shell 31 to slide on the bracket 5. The pressing rod 311 on the inner shell 31 presses against the contact of the micro switch 21 to trigger the micro switch 21 to conduct the circuit and light up each of the first LEDs 22. Pressing the P-position button 3 better drives the micro switch 21 to start, making operation convenient. The inner shell 31 has several guide grooves 312 along its circumference, and the bracket 5 has corresponding guide protrusions 51. Each guide protrusion 51 is located in the corresponding guide groove 312, serving a guiding function, making the P-position button 3 and the inner shell 31 slide more stably and smoothly on the bracket 5. The inner shell 31 also has a positioning block 313, and the bracket 5 has a movable space for the positioning block 313 to slide. When the reset block resets the P-position button 3, the positioning block 313 can play a limiting role, preventing the P-position button 3 from disengaging from the bracket 5. The ambient light ring 6 has several positioning grooves 61 along its circumference, and the bracket 5 has corresponding positioning protrusions 52. Each positioning protrusion 52 is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 61, making the ambient light ring 6 structurally stable and with good light guiding effect.

[0030] The housing 1 also contains an actuator 8, which is located below the bracket 5. The circuit board 2 is located above the actuator 8 and is electrically connected to the circuit board 2. The upper surface of the housing 1 is provided with a character plate 9, and the circuit board 2 is provided with several second LED lights 23. When the column shifter is pushed down to enter the D gear state, the actuator 8 does not trigger. When the column shifter is pushed up to enter the R gear state, the actuator 8 is triggered, causing the shifter to vibrate. This allows the driver to more intuitively perceive the current gear status of the vehicle without causing confusion, preventing misoperation, and improving safety. The driver can also perceive the current gear status by observing the gear indicator light on the character plate 9.

[0031] The housing 1 includes a separate upper cover 11 and a lower cover 12. The upper cover 11 is connected to the bracket 5 by fasteners, and the lower cover 12 is connected to the bracket 5 by a snap-fit ​​structure. The upper end face of the upper cover 11 is provided with a cavity 111, and the character piece 9 is disposed in the cavity 111. The bottom of the cavity 111 is provided with a through groove 112 corresponding to the position of each second LED light 23. The separate design facilitates the installation of the internal structure, and the installation structure is simple, easy to operate, and has good stability.
