[0029] This application provides a means of transportation, which refers to a vehicle that uses electricity, fuel, or hybrid power as its driving force to transport people or goods. The means of transportation can be a land vehicle, a marine vehicle, or an aerospace vehicle. Land vehicles include passenger cars, freight vehicles, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), and rail trains; marine vehicles include cargo ships, passenger ships, speedboats, and submersibles; and aerospace vehicles include airplanes and spacecraft. In some examples of this application, the means of transportation include new energy vehicles.

[0030] In some technical solutions, vehicles are equipped with interactive devices to enable human-computer interaction. The interactive devices are electrically connected to the vehicle's onboard power supply (a low-voltage battery with a voltage of 12V or 24V), and the onboard power supply powers the interactive devices. However, due to the long distance between the onboard power supply and the interactive devices, wiring is difficult, and the placement of the interactive devices is also easily affected by the location of the onboard power supply, resulting in limited placement of the interactive devices and difficulty in meeting diverse usage needs.

[0031] This application also provides an interactive device, as shown in the embodiments of this application. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The interactive device includes a sensing component 100, a power supply component 200, and a connection structure 300. The sensing component 100 includes a sensing element 110 and a circuit board 120 that are electrically connected. The sensing element 110 is used to detect vibration. The power supply component 200 is used to provide electrical energy to the circuit board 120. The connection structure 300 includes a first interface portion 310 disposed on the sensing component 100 and a second interface portion 320 disposed on the power supply component 200. The first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 are electrically connected through a first conductive element 330. The first interface portion 310 is electrically connected to the circuit board 120.

[0032] In this embodiment, the sensing element 110 is used to detect vibration. The sensing element 110 can be resistive, inductive, voltage-dependent, piezoelectric, etc. In some embodiments, the sensing element 110 is a piezoelectric vibrator, which includes a substrate and a piezoelectric sheet. The substrate is connected to the structural wall, and the piezoelectric sheet is connected to the substrate.

[0033] In this embodiment, the circuit board 120 includes a carrier board and various electronic devices and circuits disposed on the carrier board. The electronic devices may include a processor 121, a communicator 122, interface devices, etc., and the circuits include grounding circuits, filtering circuits, protection circuits, amplification circuits, etc. It is understood that the various electronic devices disposed on the circuit board 120 can be electrically connected through circuits.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first interface portion 310 is electrically connected to the circuit board 120, and the second interface portion 320 is electrically connected to the power supply component 200. When the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 are electrically connected through the first conductive member 330, the power supply component 200 is electrically connected to the circuit board 120, thereby the power supply component 200 independently supplies power to the circuit board 120.

[0035] In this embodiment of the application, the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 include conductive portions, such as metal conductors. The first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 may also include insulating portions, such as rubber, plastic, etc. The insulating portions partially wrap the corresponding conductive portions to reduce short circuits and other situations.

[0036] The interactive device of this application embodiment includes a sensing component 100 comprising an electrically connected sensing element 110 and a circuit board 120. The sensing element 110 is used to detect vibrations so as to serve as an input device for human-computer interaction, and the power supply component 200 is used to provide power to the sensing component 100.

[0037] Based on this, the power supply component 200 and the sensing component 100 are electrically connected through a connection structure 300. Specifically, the connection structure 300 includes a first interface portion 310 and a second interface portion 320. The first interface portion 310 is disposed on the sensing component 100, and the second interface portion 320 is disposed on the power supply component 200. The first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 are connected through a first conductive element 330. The first interface portion 310 is also connected to the circuit board 120 so that the power supply component 200 can independently power the sensing component 100. With this configuration, the placement of the interactive device is not limited by the power supply and can be freely placed at the required location. The power supply component 200 directly provides power to the sensing component 100, reducing long-distance wiring connections and power attenuation, and making deployment easier.

[0038] Compared with related technologies where the placement of interactive devices is limited by vehicle-mounted power supplies, the interactive devices in this application have their own power supply, allowing for more flexible and free placement and meeting diverse usage needs.

[0039] To facilitate the connection between battery 220 and sensing component 100, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some possible embodiments of this application, the power supply component 200 includes a first housing 210 and a battery 220. The first housing 210 is provided with a second interface portion 320. The battery 220 is housed in the first housing 210 and is electrically connected to the second interface portion 320.

[0040] In this embodiment of the application, the outer contour of the first outer shell 210 can be a regular or irregular shape such as square or circle. The first outer shell 210 can be an integral structure or a split structure composed of multiple components. In some examples, the first outer shell 210 is a square split structure.

[0041] In this embodiment, the battery 220 can be a cylindrical battery 220, a prismatic battery 220, a button battery 220, etc. The electrical connection between the battery 220 and the second interface 320 can be achieved by providing conductive wires, conductive plates, etc. between them, with power supply-related circuits, such as voltage regulator circuits and overload protection circuits, arranged on the conductive plate.

[0042] The interactive device of this application embodiment includes a power supply component 200 comprising a first housing 210 and a battery 220. The battery 220 provides electrical energy, and the first housing 210 provides protection for the battery 220. The first housing 210 is provided with a second interface portion 320, which connects the battery 220 and a first conductive member 330, facilitating the electrical connection between the battery 220 and the sensing component 100.

[0043] For ease of maintenance and replacement of battery 220, please refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some possible embodiments of this application, the first housing 210 includes a first housing 211 and a first cover 212. The first housing 211 forms a first receiving cavity 213, which includes a first opening 214. The battery 220 is detachably disposed in the first receiving cavity 213. The first cover 212 is detachably connected to the first housing 211 and can close the first opening 214.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first housing 211 forms a first receiving cavity 213. The inner contour of the first receiving cavity 213 can be similar to the outer contour of the first housing 211. The battery 220 is housed in the first receiving cavity 213. The first cover 212 is detachably connected to the first housing 211 by means of snap-fit, threaded connection, fastener connection, etc., so that the first cover 212 can be removed relative to the first housing 211, thereby opening the first opening 214.

[0045] In this embodiment, the battery 220 can be detachably connected to the first housing 211 or to the conductive plate. The detachable connection can be a snap-fit, threaded connection, or fastener connection. In some examples, the first housing 211 contains a conductive plate with a slot, in which the battery 220 is snapped into, facilitating disassembly and providing good connection stability.

[0046] The interactive device of this application embodiment provides a first housing 211 and a first cover 212. The battery 220 is disposed in the first receiving cavity 213 of the first housing 211. The first cover 212 can close the first opening 214, thereby providing a stable environment for the battery 220. The detachable connection between the first cover 212 and the first housing 211, as well as the detachable connection between the battery 220 and the first housing 211, facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the battery 220.

[0047] In order to facilitate a stable connection between the sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200, in some possible embodiments of this application, the first interface portion 310 is connected to the second interface portion 320 to fix the sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200 relative to each other.

[0048] For example, the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 can be connected by means of snap-fit, threaded connection, bonding, welding, etc. Both the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 are rigid structures, and when the two are connected, the sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200 can also remain relatively fixed. Both the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 are provided with conductive structures such as conductive posts, conductive sheets, and conductive sleeves, and the first conductive element 330 can connect to the conductive structures of the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 respectively.

[0049] In some other possible embodiments of this application, the first conductive element 330 is flexibly disposed, and the power supply component 200 is fixed to the external component 600.

[0050] For example, the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320 are not directly connected. The first conductive element 330 can be a flexible wire harness, a flexible printed circuit board 120 (FPC), etc. For example, the first conductive element 330 is an FPC, which facilitates wiring and has the function of buffering vibration. The sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200 are respectively fixed to the external component 600. With the support of the external component 600, the sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200 can remain relatively fixed.

[0051] In the interactive device of this application embodiment, the sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200 can be fixed together by the first interface portion 310 and the second interface portion 320. The sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200 can also be fixed together by means of an external component 600. While ensuring the connection stability of the sensing component 100 and the power supply component 200, different deployment requirements of different interactive devices can be met.

[0052] To facilitate the connection between the sensing element 110 and the circuit board 120, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some possible embodiments of this application, the sensing component 100 includes a second housing 140 and a second conductive element 130. The second housing 140 includes a second receiving cavity 143, in which the sensing component 110 and the circuit board 120 are both housed. The sensing component 110 and the circuit board 120 are separately disposed. The second conductive element 130 electrically connects the sensing component 110 and the circuit board 120.

[0053] In this embodiment of the application, the outer contour of the second outer shell 140 can be a regular or irregular shape such as square or circle. The second outer shell 140 can be an integral structure or a split structure composed of multiple components. In some examples, the second outer shell 140 is a square split structure.

[0054] For example, the second housing 140 includes a second housing 141 and a second cover 142. The second housing 141 forms a second receiving cavity 143. The second cover 142 is detachably connected to the second housing 141 to close the second receiving cavity 143. The sensing element 110 and the circuit board 120 are both housed in the second receiving cavity 143. The circuit board 120 is located in the middle of the second housing 141. The sensing element 110 is connected to the structural wall of the second housing 141. The structural wall is used to connect the external component 600 and is disposed opposite to the second cover 142. The structural wall can be the bottom wall, side wall, top wall, etc. of the second housing 141. For example, the structural wall is the bottom wall of the second housing 141 relative to the second cover 142.

[0055] In this embodiment, the sensing element 110 and the external component 600 are located on the inner and outer sides of the structural wall, respectively. In other words, the sensing element 110 is connected to the inner side of the structural wall corresponding to the second receiving cavity 143. The connection between the sensing element 110 and the structural wall can be adhesive, welding, snap-fit, etc. For example, the sensing element 110 is attached to the structural wall with adhesive. The outer side of the structural wall is fixed to the external component 600, which provides a mounting base for the outer shell. In some examples, the external component 600 is the sheet metal structure of the vehicle.

[0056] With this configuration, the sensing element 110 and the external component 600 are connected to the same structural wall. The vibration of the external component 600 can be transmitted to the sensing element 110 through the structural wall. The vibration transmission path is shorter, which helps to reduce attenuation and makes it easier for the sensing element 110 to detect effective external vibrations.

[0057] In this embodiment, the sensing element 110 and the circuit board 120 are connected by a second conductive element 130, which can be a conductive post, flexible wire harness, FPC, etc. In some examples, the second conductive element 130 is an FPC, which facilitates wiring and can isolate vibration, reducing the adverse effects of vibration on the second board.

[0058] The interactive device of this application embodiment provides a second outer shell 140 to protect the sensing element 110 and the circuit board 120. The second conductive element 130 facilitates the electrical connection between the sensing element 110 and the circuit board 120. The placement of the sensing element 110 is less affected by the position of the circuit board 120, which facilitates the placement of the sensing element 110 and the circuit board 120. It also reduces the possibility of vibration of the sensing element 110 being transmitted to the circuit board 120, thereby reducing the adverse effects of vibration on the circuit board 120.

[0059] For ease of fixing the power supply component 200, refer to Figure 3 In some possible embodiments of this application, the interactive device further includes a connector 400 connected to an external component 600; a second housing 140 connected to the connector 400; a power supply assembly 200 connected to the connector 400; or, the power supply assembly 200 includes a connecting portion 230 connected to the external component 600.

[0060] In this embodiment, the connector 400 can be an adhesive, a welded component, a snap-fit ​​component, etc. In some examples, the connector 400 is an adhesive component, used to bond and fix the second housing 140 to the external component 600.

[0061] In this embodiment, the first housing 210 of the power supply component 200 can be fixed to the second housing 140 by the connecting structure 300; or, the first housing 210 can also be bonded to the external component 600 by the connector 400; or, the first housing 210 includes a connecting part 230, which is fixed to the external component 600 by means of snap-fit, welding, threaded connection, fastener connection, etc.

[0062] In the interactive device of this application embodiment, the first outer shell 210 is connected to the external component 600 through the connector 400, which is beneficial to the vibration transmission between the external component 600 and the sensing element 110. The power supply component 200 can be connected to the external component 600 through the connector 400, or it can be connected to the external component 600 through its own connecting part 230 to meet different connection requirements.

[0063] To facilitate communication between the interactive device and the external terminal 700, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some possible embodiments of this application, the circuit board 120 is provided with a communicator 122 and a switch assembly 123. The communicator 122 is used to communicate with an external terminal 700, and the switch assembly 123 is used to switch the working mode of the communicator 122. The second housing 140 has a second opening 145, and the operating part of the switch assembly 123 extends to the outside of the second housing 140 through the second opening 145.

[0064] In this embodiment, the communicator 122 is used to enable communication between the interactive device and the external terminal 700. The communicator 122 can be a device in the form of Bluetooth, StarFlash, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, etc. In some examples, the communicator 122 is a Bluetooth device, and the external terminal 700 is the vehicle's control terminal.

[0065] In this embodiment, the switch assembly 123 may be a push-button switch, toggle switch, slide switch, rotary switch, etc. In some examples, the switch assembly 123 is a push-button switch, and the operating part (pressing part) of the push-button switch extends out of the second housing 140 through the second opening 145.

[0066] In this embodiment, the switch component 123 switches the working mode of the communicator 122, which can be the switch component 123 turning the communicator 122 on and off, the switch component 123 controlling the communicator 122 to connect or disconnect from the external terminal 700, the switch component 123 controlling the communicator 122 to turn on or off the mode matching the external terminal 700, the switch component 123 switching the connection of the communicator 122 with different external terminals 700, etc.

[0067] The interactive device of this application embodiment includes a circuit board 120 comprising a communicator 122 and a switch assembly 123. The communicator 122 can communicate with an external terminal 700 to achieve remote control. The operating part of the switch assembly 123 extends to the outside of the housing through a second opening 145, making it convenient for the user to switch the operating mode of the communicator 122.

[0068] To improve sealing and protection performance, refer to Figure 3 In some possible embodiments of this application, the interactive device further includes a protective member 500, which is attached to the outer surface of the first housing 210 and covers the first opening 214; and / or, the protective member 500 is attached to the outer surface of the second housing 140 and covers the second opening 145.
