[0020] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the center console of an all-terrain vehicle provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0021] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in specific embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an all-terrain vehicle 100 includes a frame 11, body panels 12, a running gear 13, a suspension system 14, and a powertrain 15.

[0023] To clearly illustrate the technical solution of this application, the following are also defined: Figure 1 The directions shown are front, rear, left, right, top, and bottom. In this application, the length direction of the frame 11 refers to... Figure 1 In the fore-and-aft direction, the width direction of the frame 11 refers to... Figure 1 The left and right directions in the middle, and the height direction of frame 11 refers to Figure 1 The up and down directions in the middle.

[0024] The frame 11 serves as the basic framework of the all-terrain vehicle 100, supporting the body panel 12, the running gear 13, the suspension system 14, and the powertrain 15. The body panel 12 is at least partially located on and connected to the frame 11, protecting the internal components of the all-terrain vehicle 100. The running gear 13 is at least partially located below the frame 11, and the suspension system 14 connects the running gear 13 to the frame 11. Specifically, the running gear 13 includes a front wheel 131 and a rear wheel 132, both at least partially located below the frame 11 and connected to the frame 11 via the suspension system 14. The powertrain 15 is drive-connected to the running gear 13. More specifically, the powertrain 15 can be driven to the front wheel 131, the powertrain 15 can be driven to the rear wheel 132, or the powertrain 15 can be driven to both the front wheel 131 and the rear wheel 132 simultaneously.

[0025] Specifically, the frame 11 includes a front frame 111, a middle frame 112, and a rear frame 113 connected in sequence. Along the length of the frame 11, the middle frame 112 is located between the front frame 111 and the rear frame 113, that is, the middle frame 112 is located behind the front frame 111 and in front of the rear frame 113. The body panel 12 and the middle frame 112 form a driver's cab 20, which provides seating space for the driver and / or passengers.

[0026] In this embodiment, the mid-frame 112 includes a front strut mechanism 1121, a strut 1122, and a rear strut mechanism 1123. The front strut mechanism 1121 is located in front of the strut 1122, and the strut 1122 is located in front of the rear strut mechanism 1123. For the all-terrain vehicle 100, the front strut mechanism 1121 is the A-pillar of the all-terrain vehicle 100, the strut 1122 is the B-pillar of the all-terrain vehicle 100, and the rear strut mechanism 1123 is the C-pillar of the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the all-terrain vehicle 100 includes a central control system, a switch assembly 26, and a central control panel 124 (see reference). Figure 1 The switch assembly 26 is used to control the functions of the all-terrain vehicle 100, and the center console 124 is used to support the central control system. The center console 124 has a first preset area 1246 capable of mounting the switch assembly 26. The first preset area 1246 includes a first usage state capable of mounting the switch assembly 26 and a second usage state with reserved mounting positions for the switch assembly 26. This configuration allows the first preset area 1246 to accommodate switch assemblies 26 of different sizes and quantities when in the first usage state, to meet the control requirements of various functions of the all-terrain vehicle 100, thereby improving the convenience of functional control of the all-terrain vehicle 100. When the first preset area 1246 is in the second usage state, the structure of the center console 124 is simplified, and other components can also be installed in the first preset area 1246, thus facilitating the fulfillment of different usage requirements and improving the control versatility of the center console 124.

[0028] The area of ​​the first preset region 1246 is 123 cm². 2 Up to 185cm 2 Specifically, the area of ​​the first preset region 1246 is 138 cm². 2 Up to 170cm 2 More specifically, the area of ​​the first preset region 1246 is 154 cm². 2 This design avoids the first preset area 1246 from being too large on the center console 124, which would result in the switch assembly 26 within the first preset area 1246 being too large, thus preventing accidental activation of the switch assembly 26 by the driver and passengers and improving the safety of the switch assembly 26 within the first area 1246a. It also avoids damage to the center console 124 when drilling the mounting holes for the switch assembly 26 due to the first preset area 1246 being too large, thereby extending the service life of the center console 124. Furthermore, it avoids the first preset area 1246 from being too small on the center console 124, which would result in low space utilization of the first preset area 1246, thus improving the space utilization of the switch assembly 26 within the first preset area 1246.

[0029] like Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the first preset region 1246 includes a first region 1246a and a second region 1246b, with the first region 1246a at least partially located below the second region 1246b. Furthermore, the switch assembly 26 includes a first switch 261 and a second switch 262, with the first switch 261 located in the first region 1246a and the second switch 262 located in the second region 1246b. This arrangement allows different types of switch assemblies 26 to be integrated and installed in different regions, improving the neatness of the distribution of switch assemblies 26 within the first preset region 1246 and ensuring that the switch assemblies 26 within the first preset region 1246 do not interfere with each other, thereby improving the operational stability of the switch assembly 26.

[0030] Specifically, the first switch 261 comprises multiple rocker switches distributed along the width of the frame 11. This arrangement allows the rocker switches to maintain stable "on" and "off" states, thereby improving the stability of the switch assembly 26's control over the all-terrain vehicle 100's functions. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the distribution of multiple rocker switches along the width of the frame 11 increases the number of rocker switches installed in the first region 1246a, allowing for the placement of more first switches 261 within the first region 1246a, thus enhancing the functional control of the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0031] More specifically, the second switch 262 is an integrated switch, which includes an air conditioning switch 2621, a multimedia switch 2622, a ramp switch 2623, a voice control switch 2624, a mode switch 2625, and a distributed lock switch 2626. This integrated switch allows for the consolidation of these switches, reducing the space occupied by the second switch 262 within the second area 1246b, thus enabling the installation of more switches within the second area 1246b. The air conditioning switch 2621 controls the air conditioning system 25 within the all-terrain vehicle 100; the multimedia switch 2622 controls the multimedia interaction module 182 within the all-terrain vehicle 100; the ramp switch 2623 controls the power output of the powertrain 15; the voice control switch 2624 controls the multimedia interaction module 182 within the all-terrain vehicle 100; the mode switch 2625 controls the driving mode of the all-terrain vehicle 100; and the distributed lock switch 2626 is used for the distributed lock of the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0032] In this embodiment, the volume of the first switch 261 is smaller than the volume of the second switch 262; the number of first switches 261 is greater than the number of second switches 262. This arrangement allows for the fabrication of more first switches 261 within the first region 1246a.

[0033] In this embodiment, the area of ​​the first region 1246a is 48 cm². 2Up to 73cm 2 Specifically, the area of ​​the first region 1246a is 54 cm². 2 Up to 66cm 2 More specifically, the area of ​​the first region 1246a is 60 cm². 2 This design avoids the first switch 261 within the first area 1246a becoming too large if the area is too large, thus preventing accidental activation by the driver and passengers and improving the safety of the first switch 261. It also prevents damage to the center console 124 when drilling the mounting hole for the first switch 261 if the first area 1246a is too large, thereby extending the lifespan of the center console 124. Furthermore, it avoids the first area 1246a becoming too small on the center console 124, thus improving the space utilization of the first switch 261 within the first area 1246a.

[0034] Furthermore, the area of ​​region 1246b is 48 cm². 2 Up to 73cm 2 Specifically, the area of ​​the second region 1246b is 54 cm². 2 Up to 66cm 2 More specifically, the area of ​​the second region 1246b is 60 cm². 2 This design avoids the second switch 262 within the second area 1246b becoming too large, thus preventing accidental activation by the driver and passengers and improving the safety of its use. It also prevents damage to the center console 124 during the drilling of the mounting hole for the second switch 262, extending its lifespan. Furthermore, it avoids the second area 1246b becoming too small on the center console 124, thus improving the space utilization of the second switch 262 within the first area 1246a and ensuring a more uniform distribution of the second switch 262 on the center console 124.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the center console 124 also has a second preset area 1247, which is at least partially located below the first preset area 1246. The switch assembly 26 also includes a third switch 263, the volume of which is larger than that of the first switch 261. This arrangement allows for a further increase in the number of switch assemblies 26 on the center console 124 via the third switch 263, enabling the switch assemblies 26 on the center console 124 to control more functions of the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0036] Specifically, the third switch 263 is a two-wheel drive / four-wheel drive switching switch, and it is also a rotary switch. This design eliminates the need for the driver to observe the switch's opening and closing status, thus improving driving safety. The two-wheel drive / four-wheel drive switching switch controls the power transmission mode of the powertrain 15.

[0037] In this embodiment, the ratio of the area of ​​the first preset region 1246 to the area of ​​the second preset region 1247 ranges from 1.2 to 2. Specifically, the ratio ranges from 1.4 to 1.8. More specifically, the ratio is 1.6. This setting avoids the ratio of the first preset region 1246 to the second preset region 1247 being too large or too small, which would result in uneven distribution of the switch components 26 within the first and second preset regions 1246 and 1247, thereby improving the uniformity of the switch components 26 arrangement on the central control panel 124.

[0038] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
