[Technical Field]

[0001] TECHNICAL FIELD This disclosure relates to display technology. [Background technology]

[0002] In Patent Document 1, a display device is provided in which a first display component (display) and a second display component (reflector) having a reflecting property of reflecting visible light are arranged to face each other. The upper ends of the first display component and the second display component are assembled to a hood without any gaps. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2021-76713 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, with the configuration of Patent Document 1, if the second display component becomes large, for example, it becomes difficult to manufacture the upper end portion of the second display component without a gap relative to the meter hood due to dimensional errors or assembly errors.

[0005] Furthermore, the display device may require an internal structure for the first display component to function, such as a control circuit, a power supply system, etc. In this case, if the upper end of the second display component is tightly attached to the hood, it becomes difficult to arrange cables that conduct electricity between the internal structure and the first display component.

[0006] In this way, it is preferable to provide a gap between the upper ends of the first display component and the second display component, but providing a gap can lead to a new problem in that the internal structure can be seen from the viewing side, which can deteriorate the appearance of the display device.

[0007] An object of the disclosure of this specification is to provide a display device that looks good. [Means for solving the problem]

[0014] Hereinafter, several embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that corresponding components in each embodiment are given the same reference numerals, and redundant description may be omitted. When only a portion of the configuration is described in each embodiment, the configuration of another embodiment described previously can be applied to the remaining portion of the configuration. Furthermore, in addition to the combinations of configurations explicitly stated in the description of each embodiment, configurations of several embodiments can also be partially combined together even if not explicitly stated, as long as there is no particular problem with the combination.

[0015] (First embodiment) A display device 10 according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure is mounted on a vehicle. The display device 10 shown in Fig. 1 is, for example, a virtual image pillar-to-pillar display that provides a display that extends horizontally along a left-right direction LaD from the left A-pillar to the right A-pillar of the vehicle. The display device 10 is installed on an instrument panel 2 that faces, in a front-to-rear direction LoD of the vehicle, from seats in which passengers (including the driver) as viewers are seated. Here, the front-to-rear direction LoD, the left-to-right direction LaD, and the up-to-down direction VD in this embodiment are defined with respect to the vehicle on a horizontal plane.

[0016] 2, the instrument panel 2 is provided with an accommodation chamber 2a that accommodates the display device 10. The accommodation chamber 2a is formed so as to extend in the left-right direction LaD of the vehicle from a portion facing the driver's seat 6 to a portion facing the passenger seat 7.

[0017] A hood 3 is provided on the ceiling of the accommodation compartment 2a. The hood 3 is made of, for example, a light-blocking synthetic resin. The hood 3 is formed so as to extend over the entire left-right direction LaD of the vehicle from the left A-pillar to the right A-pillar. The hood 3 prevents external light, such as sunlight, from entering the vehicle interior through the front windshield or the like from reducing the visibility of the display on the display device 10.

[0018] For this reason, the tip of the hood 3 is formed to protrude in the longitudinal direction LoD of the vehicle from the lower end of the front windshield to a position closer to the driver's seat 6 and passenger's seat 7 than the display device 10. The tip of the hood 3 may be formed to extend in a straight line from the left A-pillar to the right A-pillar. Furthermore, the hood 3 may have a flat portion or a recess on the lower surface 3a facing the underside of the vehicle that is formed to be able to hold the displays 11a-e.

[0019] The display device 10 of this embodiment is capable of displaying virtual images to multiple occupants, including a driver seated in the driver's seat 6 and a passenger seated in the passenger seat 7. Here, the side of the display device 10 on which the driver's seat 6 and passenger seat 7 are located is defined as the viewing side. The side of the display device 10 opposite the side on which the driver's seat 6 and passenger seat 7 are located is defined as the rear side. As shown in FIG. 1, the display device 10 includes multiple displays 11a-e, a mirror unit 21, a rear unit 31, and regulating components 511-517.

[0020] As shown in Fig. 3, the displays 11a-e are, for example, OLED displays, liquid crystal displays, etc., and are panels formed in a plate shape (for example, flat plate shape). The displays 11a-e have a flat display screen 12 facing downward of the vehicle, opposite the hood 3. The display screen 12 has a rectangular outer shape with pixels arranged two-dimensionally in the longitudinal and lateral directions. The displays 11a-e also form a frame 13, which is a non-display area, surrounding the display screen 12.

[0021] The display state of each pixel is controlled by the rear unit 31, which will be described in detail later, so that the display screen 12 can emit light and display an image toward the mirror unit 21 below. The display screen 12 can display a color image, but may also be configured to display a monochrome image or a single-color image.

[0022] For example, five displays 11a-e may be provided. The displays 11a-e may be arranged side by side in the left-right direction LaD. The display screens 12 of the displays 11a-e may be arranged so that they face a common downward direction. The displays 11a-e may be arranged so that the longitudinal ends of the display screens 12 face or overlap with the adjacent displays 11a-e. The overlapping portions may include not only the frame portion 13 but also the display screens 12. In this case, the multiple displays 11a-e may be arranged in an arc shape along a virtual arc VC protruding toward the rear side. In other words, the arc VC is a reference line for arranging the displays 11a-e.

[0023] Here, in order to optimize the position of a virtual image VI (see FIG. 4), which will be described later, the centers of all of the displays 11a-e do not have to be positioned exactly on the same arc VC. That is, some of the multiple displays 11a-e may be offset with different amounts of offset from each other toward the inside or outside of the virtual arc VC in the radial direction of the arc VC. This amount of offset may be set, for example, within a range of 10% or less of the short-side dimension of the display screen 12, and may remain at an adjustment level that adjusts the displayable range of the virtual image VI.

[0024] If the vehicle is a right-hand drive vehicle, of the five displays 11a-e, the second display 11b counting from the right may be responsible for displaying information in front of the driver's seat 6. The content displayed by the display 11a in a right-hand drive vehicle may be based on the allocation shown below, for example. The content displayed by the first display 11a counting from the right may be so-called electronic mirror content, which displays an image captured by a right rear camera that captures the right rear of the vehicle. The content displayed by the second display 11b counting from the right may be so-called meter content, which displays various driving information about the vehicle (e.g., driving speed, driving mode, mileage, remaining battery power, etc.). The content displayed by the third display 11c counting from the left may be so-called navigation content, which displays navigation information (e.g., an image guiding the vehicle's current location and the route to the destination, road information, etc.). The content displayed by the fourth display 11d counting from the right may be content displaying entertainment videos or information about the in-vehicle air conditioner. The content displayed by the fifth display 11e counting from the right may be a so-called electronic mirror content that displays an image captured by a left rear camera that captures the left rear of the vehicle.

[0025] If the vehicle is a left-hand drive vehicle, the second display from the left side of the five displays may be responsible for displaying content in front of the driver's seat 6. In the case of a left-hand drive vehicle, the order of left and right contents assigned to the displays may be reversed compared to the case of the left-hand drive vehicle described above. Furthermore, the content assignment may be changeable to suit the occupant's preferences, for example, according to the occupant's operational settings.

[0026] 1 and 4, the mirror unit 21 includes a mirror plate 22 and a mirror holding component 23. The mirror plate 22 is an optical component formed in the shape of a light-transmitting plate (e.g., a curved plate) using, for example, a synthetic resin such as an acrylic resin or glass.

[0027] The mirror plate 22 is disposed so as to face each of the displays 11a to 11e. The mirror plate 22 is disposed in an inclined position so that it is positioned closer to the viewing side as it moves from top to bottom. A gap is formed between the displays 11a to 11e and the mirror plate 22. By disposing the hood 3 or the displays 11a to 11e and the mirror plate 22 so that they are spaced apart rather than in contact with each other, it is possible to suppress the generation of abnormal noise caused by vehicle vibrations, etc. The distance between the displays 11a to 11e and the mirror plate 22 is disposed so as to gradually increase as it moves closer to the viewing side, in other words, as it moves farther away from the rear unit 31.

[0028] The mirror plate 22 is formed to extend over the entire width of the vehicle in the left-right direction LaD from the left A-pillar to the right A-pillar within the range that can be accommodated in the accommodation chamber 2a, similar to the hood 3. One mirror plate 22 is provided for each of the multiple indicators 11a to 11e.

[0029] That is, by providing a plurality of the displays 11a-e, it becomes possible to use displays 11a-e with a general aspect ratio. On the other hand, since the mirror plate 22 is directly visible to the occupants when checking the display, by integrating the plurality of displays 11a-e into one, it is possible to improve the sense of unity of the display between the left and right pillars. On the other hand, because the mirror plate 22 is large, if it is to be attached to the hood 3, for example, by directly fitting it, gaps and creaks will occur between the hood 3 and the mirror plate 22 unless each part is manufactured with extremely high dimensional precision. For this reason, in this embodiment, a configuration is adopted in which the hood 3 or the displays 11a-e are spaced apart from the mirror plate 22, as described above.

[0030] The mirror plate 22 directs the display light emitted from each display screen 12 toward the viewing side. Specifically, the mirror plate 22 reflects the display light emitted from each display screen 12 toward the viewing side. The mirror plate 22 forms a virtual image VI at a position opposite the driver's seat 6 and passenger seat 7 across the mirror plate 22, so that the virtual image VI is visible to the occupants sitting in these seats. Here, the reflective surface 22a of the mirror plate 22, which faces each display screen 12 and the seats and reflects the display light, may have a curved shape that makes it easy for the occupants to view the virtual image VI.

[0031] For example, the curved shape of the reflecting surface 22a may be a concave cylindrical surface. More specifically, in a cross section of the mirror plate 22 taken along the left-right direction LaD of the vehicle, the reflecting surface 22a may be curved in a gentle curve. The gentle curve here refers to a curve that realizes a shape that allows the mirror plate 22 to be accommodated in the accommodation chamber 2a. On the other hand, in a cross section (e.g., a cross section taken along line IV-IV in FIG. 2) taken along the vehicle's up-down direction VD and front-to-back direction LoD, which is perpendicular to the cross section, the reflecting surface 22a may extend linearly.

[0032] Due to the curved surface shape of the reflective surface 22a and the arc-shaped arrangement of the multiple displays 11a-e, the virtual images VI of the displays 11a-e are aligned continuously along the horizontal direction of the vehicle and curved to envelop the occupant. In this way, the display device 10 is designed to blend into the interior of the vehicle and give the occupant a sense of unity with the vehicle.

[0033] The mirror plate 22 may be formed to have light-blocking properties. In this case, a metal thin film layer made of, for example, aluminum or the like may be formed on the reflecting surface 22a as a surface treatment to impart reflective properties that reflect visible light. The mirror plate 22 may also be formed in a so-called half-mirror shape that is optically transparent. In this case, an optical multilayer film layer formed by forming multiple layers of inorganic compounds or metal oxides may be formed on the reflecting surface 22a as a surface treatment to impart reflective properties.

[0034] The mirror holding component 23 holds the mirror plate 22. The mirror holding component 23 is formed of, for example, synthetic resin or metal. The mirror holding component 23 has a bottom and a contact portion 23b. The bottom is fixedly held to the bottom surface of the accommodation chamber 2a. The contact portion 23b contacts the surface of the mirror plate 22 opposite to the reflecting surface 22a so as to determine the position and tilt posture of the mirror plate 22 described above.

[0035] In order to securely hold the mirror plate 22, the contact portion 23b of the mirror holding component 23 may be bonded to the mirror plate 22 with an adhesive. The mirror holding component 23 may be engaged or fitted with the mirror plate 22 by an engagement structure or a fitting structure. The mirror holding component 23 may be fastened to the mirror plate 22 with screws.

[0036] Furthermore, when the mirror plate 22 is formed in a half mirror shape, the mirror holding component 23 may have an opening that opens so as to penetrate between the mirror plate 22 and the rear unit 31. This opening can be used to add an additional function to the rear unit 31.

[0037] For example, a real image can be displayed on the viewing side from an additional display provided in the rear unit 31 through the opening. Also, for example, lighting can be provided toward the viewing side from a light source provided in the rear unit 31 through the opening. Also, for example, an image of an occupant can be captured by a camera provided in the rear unit 31 through the opening. Even with this configuration, if the rear side is dark compared to the viewing side, the half mirror action of the mirror plate 22 prevents parts and the like of the rear unit 31 from being seen.

[0038] Unlike the displays 11a-e and the mirror plate 22, the rear unit 31 is a unit that aggregates the internal components of the display device 10 and does not have an appearance that allows the occupant to directly check it from the viewing side. The rear unit 31 is arranged on the rear side of the displays 11a-e and the mirror unit 21 in the accommodation compartment 2a. Thus, most of the rear unit 31 is hidden by the displays 11a-e and the mirror unit 21. The rear unit 31 is mainly composed of, for example, a control circuit board.

[0039] The control circuit board is connected to a power source and has a control circuit mounted thereon that realizes the function of controlling the multiple displays 11a-e. The control circuit may be mainly configured with a computer 32. The computer 32 has at least one memory 32a and one processor 32b. The memory 32a may be at least one type of non-transitory tangible storage medium, such as a semiconductor memory, a magnetic medium, or an optical medium, that non-temporarily stores programs and data readable by the processor 32b. Furthermore, the memory 32a may be provided with a rewritable volatile storage medium, such as a random access memory (RAM). The processor 32b includes at least one type of core, such as a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), or a reduced instruction set computer (RISC)-CPU.

[0040] When the rear unit 31 realizes a function through the opening as described above, it may further include a display, a light source, a camera, or the like corresponding to that function.

[0041] The control circuit board is connected to each of the displays 11a-e by one or more flexible cables 41. This allows the control circuit board and each of the displays 11a-e to be electrically connected. That is, it becomes possible for each of the displays 11a-e to share power through the control circuit board. It also enables mutual communication between the control circuit and the displays 11a-e. For example, the control circuit transmits video signals for displaying content to each of the displays 11a-e. Each of the displays 11a-e provides information indicating its own status to the control circuit, for example, in response to a request from the control circuit.

[0042] The flexible cable 41 is formed in a flexible band shape by attaching a thin film sticker having a conductive pattern to a base film made of, for example, polyimide, etc. Therefore, the flexible cable 41 has the reflective property of reflecting visible light.

[0043] One end of the flexible cable 41 is electrically connected to the control circuit board. The other end of the flexible cable 41 is electrically connected to the displays 11a-e. In this connection between the displays 11a-e and the rear unit 31, the flexible cable 41 is inserted through the gap between the displays 11a-e and the mirror plate 22. The flexible cable 41 is arranged along the lower surface 3a of the hood 3 so as to crawl along the lower surface 3a.

[0044] The regulating parts 511 to 517 are arranged in the gaps between the display 11a or hood 3 and the mirror plate 22. The regulating parts 511 to 517 prevent the rear unit 31 from being seen from the viewing side through these gaps. Various configurations can be adopted for the regulating parts 511 to 517, as shown in the following Examples 1 to 7. In this embodiment, one type of regulating part out of the regulating parts 511 to 517 may be selectively and uniformly adopted for the gaps between each of the display units 11a to 11e and the mirror plate 22.

[0045] <Example 1-1> 4 and 5, the regulating part 511 is made of a hard material such as a light-blocking synthetic resin or metal. The surface of the regulating part 511 may be dark (e.g., black) and may be roughened by applying a graining process or the like to suppress specular reflection of visible light.

[0046] The regulating component 511 is held by the mirror holding component 23. The regulating component 511 may be adhered to the mirror holding component 23 with an adhesive so as to be fixedly held by the mirror holding component 23. The regulating component 511 may be engaged or fitted with the mirror holding component 23 by an engagement structure or a fitting structure. The regulating component 511 may be fastened to the mirror holding component 23 with a screw.

[0047] The regulating component 511 is assumed to be visible from the viewing side, and is made of a material and has a surface treatment that does not have reflective properties. Therefore, if the mirror holding component 23 is not assumed to be visible from the viewing side and is configured to be covered from the viewing side by the mirror plate 22, different materials and surface treatments may be used for the regulating component 511 and the mirror holding component 23. This makes it possible to further improve the functions required of each component, and also reduces the component cost since the appearance of the mirror holding component 23 is not a consideration.

[0048] The regulating part 511 is formed with a U-shaped cross section that wraps around from the back surface 23a of the mirror holding part 23 to the reflective surface 22a of the mirror plate 22. The regulating part 511 has a wide shape that extends in the left-right direction LaD so as to fill in the gap formed so as to extend in the left-right direction LaD. The regulating part 511 is formed to be spaced apart from the hood 3 and the indicators 11a-e. The regulating part 511 is also formed to leave a small space between it and the flexible cable 41 so that the regulating part 511 does not rub against the flexible cable 41 frequently due to vehicle vibrations, etc.

[0049] The restricting component 511 integrally includes a blocking portion 511a and a cable covering portion 511b. The blocking portion 511a is formed in the shape of an upright wall that protrudes from a base end portion held by the mirror holding component 23 toward the underside 3a of the hood 3 or the flexible cable 41. As shown in FIG. 5, the blocking portion 511a has the function of blocking the line of sight P1 through which an occupant directly looks at the rear unit 31 through a gap.

[0050] The cable covering portion 511b is formed like a wall that protrudes from the upper end of the blocking portion 511a toward the viewing side where the indicators 11a to 11e are arranged, along the flexible cable 41. In the configuration of Fig. 4, the cable covering portion 511b protrudes non-parallel to the lower surface portion 3a of the hood 3. The distance between the lower surface portion 3a and the cable covering portion 511b gradually increases from the rear side toward the viewing side.

[0051] The cable covering portion 511b covers at least a portion of the flexible cable 41, with a gap therebetween. This allows the cable covering portion 511b to block the line of sight path P2, through which the occupant indirectly looks into the rear unit 31 through the gap by reflection on the mirror plate 22 and the flexible cable 41. The cable covering portion 511b also restricts the passage of disturbance light that enters the display device 10, is reflected by the mirror plate 22 and the flexible cable 41, and reaches the eyes of the occupant. This makes it possible to suppress a decrease in visibility of the virtual image display due to disturbance light.

[0052] Furthermore, the dimensions of the cable covering portion 511b are set so that the tip of the cable covering portion 511b is prevented from reaching the displays 11a to 11e, thereby preventing the cable covering portion 511b from interfering with the displays 11a to 11e.

[0053] <Example 1-2> 6, the regulating component 512 is formed with an L-shaped cross section so as to protrude from the rear surface 23a of the mirror holding component 23 toward the hood 3. The regulating component 512 has a blocking portion 512a that has the same function as in Example 1-1, but does not have a cable covering portion. The upper end of the blocking portion 512a is configured to leave a space between the hood 3 and the flexible cable 41.

[0054] <Examples 1-3> In Examples 1-3 shown in FIG. 7, the regulating component 513 integrally includes a blocking portion 513a and a cable covering portion 513b having the same functions as those in Example 1, and also includes a buffer portion 513c. The buffer portion 513c is formed of a soft material that is different from the materials of the blocking portion 513a and the cable covering portion 513b. Examples of the soft material that can be used include urethane sponge, synthetic rubber, and natural rubber. The soft material is preferably dark in color (e.g., black).

[0055] The buffering portion 513c is, for example, adhered to the cable covering portion 513b, and is disposed between the cable covering portion 513b and the flexible cable 41. With this arrangement, the buffering portion 513c can buffer the influence of vehicle vibrations and the like between the cable covering portion 513b and the flexible cable 41.

[0056] In this configuration, cable covering portion 513b protrudes so as to be substantially parallel to lower surface portion 3a of hood 3. This makes the distance between cable covering portion 513b and hood 3 or flexible cable 41 constant. Therefore, in order to evenly distribute the pressure on flexible cable 41 from regulating part 513, it is sufficient that buffer portion 513c has a constant thickness. In other words, there is no need for a dedicated process for gradually changing the thickness of buffer portion 513c, which facilitates the manufacture of display device 10.

[0057] <Examples 1-4> In Example 1-4 shown in Fig. 8, the regulating component 514 is mainly composed of a buffer blocking portion 514d. The buffer blocking portion 514d is made of a soft material. The buffer blocking portion 514d is adhered to the upper end portion 21a of the mirror unit 21, for example, with an adhesive. The buffer blocking portion 514d is sandwiched between the lower surface portion 3a of the hood 3 and the mirror unit 21 in a state in which it is elastically deformed so as to bite into the upper end portion 21a of the mirror unit 21.

[0058] As a result, the buffer blocking portion 514d has the same function as the blocking portions 511a, 512a, and 513a in Examples 1-1 to 1-3. In addition, the buffer blocking portion 514d can buffer the influence of vehicle vibration between the mirror unit 21 and the hood 3.

[0059] <Examples 1-5> 9, the restricting part 515 is held by the hood 3. The restricting part 515 integrally has a base end 515e, a cable covering part 515b, and a blocking part 515a. The material and surface treatment of the restricting part 515 may be the same as those of Example 1-1.

[0060] The base end 515e is fixedly held relative to the hood 3 at a position on the underside 3a of the hood 3 that is offset in the left-right direction VD from the location where the flexible cable 41 is disposed. The restricting part 515 may be adhered to the hood 3 with an adhesive so as to be fixedly held by the hood 3. The restricting part 515 may be engaged with or fitted to the hood 3 by an engaging structure or a fitting structure. The restricting part 515 may be fastened to the hood 3 with a screw. Here, the base end 515e may function as an adjustment mechanism that adjusts the length of the base end 515e in order to adjust the positions of the cable covering part 515b and the blocking part 515a in the up-down direction VD.

[0061] The cable covering portion 515b and the blocking portion 515a have the same functions as those in Example 1-11. The cable covering portion 515b is formed in a wall shape that protrudes in the left-right direction LaD from the base end portion 515e to cover the flexible cable 41. The blocking portion 515a is formed in a wall shape that protrudes downward from the rear end of the cable covering portion 515b, which is located behind the mirror unit 21.

[0062] <Examples 1-6> In Example 1-6 shown in FIG. 10, the restricting part 516 has a base end part 516e and a cable covering part 515b that have the same functions as those in Example 5, but does not have a blocking part.

[0063] <Examples 1-7> In Example 1-7 shown in FIG. 11, the regulating part 517 integrally includes a base end 517e and a cable covering 517b similar to those in Example 1-6, and also includes a buffer blocking part 517d. The buffer blocking part 517d is formed of a soft material that is different from the material of the base end 517e and the cable covering 517b. The buffer blocking part 517d is bonded to the cable covering 517b with an adhesive. The buffer blocking part 517d is sandwiched between the cable covering 517b and the mirror unit 21 in a state in which it is elastically deformed so as to bite into the upper end 21a of the mirror unit 21.

[0064] As a result, the buffer blocking portion 517d has the same function as the buffer blocking portion 514d in the embodiment 4. Furthermore, the buffer blocking portion 517d can buffer the influence of vehicle vibrations between the mirror unit 21 and the hood 3, etc.

[0065] According to the first embodiment described above, a configuration is adopted in which gaps are provided between the displays 11a-e and the mirror plate 22, and the restricting components 511-517 are arranged in the gaps. These restricting components 511-517 make it difficult to see through the gaps in the rear unit 31 from the viewing side. As a result, the appearance of the display device 10 is improved.

[0066] Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, a flexible cable 41 is further provided, which conducts electricity between the displays 11a-e and the rear unit 31, has reflective properties, and is arranged to pass through the gap. The restricting components 511, 513, 515, 516, and 517 have cable coverings 511b, 513b, 515b, 516b, and 517b that cover the flexible cable 41. Therefore, the line of sight path P2, which allows indirect viewing of the rear unit 31 through the gap from the viewing side due to light reflection by the flexible cable 41 and the mirror plate 22, is blocked. This makes it difficult to check the rear unit 31, improving the appearance of the display device 10.

[0067] Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, the restricting components 511, 512, 513, 514, 515, and 517 have blocking portions 511a, 512a, 513a, 514d, and 515a or buffer blocking portion 517d. This blocks the line of sight P1 that allows a direct view of the internal structure from the viewing side through the gap. This makes it difficult to check the rear unit 31, improving the appearance of the display device 10.

[0068] Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, the restriction components 513, 514, 517 have the buffering portions 513c and the buffering blocking portions 514d, 517d that buffer vibrations, thereby making it possible to suppress the effects of vehicle vibrations.

[0069] Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, the restriction parts 515, 516, 517 have base ends 515e, 516e, 517e that function as adjustment mechanisms for adjusting the position in the gap. Since the positions of the restriction parts 515, 516, 517 can be adjusted during assembly, for example, the effect of blocking the line of sight P1, P2 can be maximized, making it more difficult to check the rear unit 31.

[0070] In the first embodiment, the displays 11a to 11e correspond to the "first display component." The mirror plate 22 corresponds to the "second display component." The rear unit 31 corresponds to the "internal structure." The flexible cable 41 corresponds to the "cable." The blocking portions 511a, 512a, 513a, 514d, 515a and the buffer blocking portion 517d correspond to the "blocking portion." The buffer portion 513c and the buffer blocking portions 514d, 517d correspond to the "buffer portion."

[0071] (Second embodiment) 12 and 13, the second embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. The second embodiment will be described, focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.

[0072] In the display device 10 of the second embodiment, a plurality of types of regulating parts 511, 512, 513 having different shapes or configurations are combined and provided in the gap portion formed between the plurality of displays 11a-e and the mirror plate 22 and communicating in the left-right direction LaD.

[0073] Specifically, the display device 10 is defined with a plurality of regions A11, A12, A21, A22, and A23 divided in the left-right direction LaD. Restriction components 511, 512, and 513 with different configurations are applied to the gap regions A11, A12, A21, A22, and A23 corresponding to the respective regions. Separate restriction components 511, 512, and 513 may be disposed in the regions A11, A12, A21, A22, and A23. Alternatively, a single restriction component 511, 512, and 513 may be disposed across multiple regions A11, A12, A21, A22, and A23. For example, multiple types of restriction components 511, 512, and 513 may be connected or integrated with each other in a single gap portion connecting the regions A11, A12, A21, A22, and A23, and disposed as a single component.

[0074] In order to apply a plurality of types of restricting parts 511, 512, and 513, various configurations such as those shown in the following Examples 2-1 and 2-2 can be adopted.

[0075] <Example 2-1> In Example 2-1 shown in Fig. 12, an area A11 including the displays 11a-e corresponding to the front position of the passenger seat 7 is separated from an area A12 other than the area A11. The configuration of Example 1-1 is adopted in area A11. The configuration of Example 1-2 is adopted in area A12.

[0076] In Example 2-1, the indicator 11d corresponding to the front position of the passenger seat 7 is disposed so as to be offset radially inward with respect to the imaginary arc VC. The amount of offset of this indicator 11d with respect to the arc VC is the largest among the multiple indicators 11a to e.

[0077] The radially outward displacement indicates that the display 11d is shifted toward the viewing side relative to the mirror plate 22. As a result, in the region A11, the gap between the display 11d and the mirror plate 22 becomes wider in the front-to-rear direction LoD, and the length of the portion of the flexible cable 41 that is located in the gap increases. In other words, the surface area of ​​the flexible cable 41 that occupies the gap increases, increasing the risk that the flexible cable 41 will be seen along the line of sight P2.

[0078] Therefore, in the area A11, the restricting component 511 having a configuration including both the blocking portion 511a and the cable covering portion 511b of Example 1-1 is adopted. That is, the cable covering portion 511b covers the flexible cable 41 in the area A11, thereby preventing the rear unit 31 from being indirectly confirmed from the viewing side.

[0079] On the other hand, in area A12, the gap between the displays 11a-c, e and the mirror plate 22 is narrower than in area A11, and the length of the portion of the flexible cable 41 that is placed in the gap is shorter than in area A11. For this reason, a restricting component 512 that does not have a cable sheath is used in area A12. Because the placement of the cable sheath is suppressed, the cable sheath does not frequently rub against the flexible cable 41 in the narrow gap.

[0080] <Example 2-2> In Example 2-2 shown in Figure 13, the area is divided into area A21 including the display 11d corresponding to the front position of the passenger seat 7, area A23 including each of the left and right ends of the display device 10, and the other area A22.

[0081] In Example 2-2, the display 11d is also displaced as in Example 2-1. For this reason, the restricting part 511 of Example 1-1 is employed in the area A21, and the restricting part 512 of Example 1-2 is employed in the area A22. Furthermore, the restricting part 513 of Example 1-3, which is additionally provided with a buffer part 513c, is employed in the area A23, thereby providing measures against vehicle vibration.

[0082] According to the second embodiment described above, the display device 10 is mounted on the instrument panel 2 of a vehicle and configured to display information from the driver's seat 6 to the passenger seat 7. The displays 11a-e are arranged in a row along the arc VC from the driver's seat to the passenger seat. At least one of the displays 11a-e, ie, the display 11d, is offset from the arc VC. This causes the gap between the display 11d and the mirror plate 22 to have a different width than the gap between the displays 11a-c and 11e and the mirror plate 22. Since the gaps between the displays 11a-e and the mirror plate 22 have different widths in the regions A11, A12, A21, A22, and A23, a combination of multiple types of regulating components 511, 512, and 513 having different shapes is arranged. Such a combination optimizes the restricting effect according to the size of the gap, resulting in a good appearance of the display device 10.

[0083] According to the second embodiment, the gap is formed so as to extend from the area facing the driver's seat to the area facing the passenger seat. In the gap, a regulating component 513 having a buffer 513c that buffers vibration and a regulating component 511 without a buffer are combined and arranged in accordance with the difference in the degree of influence of vehicle vibration for each of the areas A21, A22, and A23. This combination reduces the influence of vehicle vibration while minimizing the amount of material used for the buffer 513c.

[0084] (Third embodiment) 14 and 15, the third embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. The third embodiment will be described, focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.

[0085] In the third embodiment, no restricting component is provided, but instead the arrangement of the upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 is devised. Here, a virtual extension area DEA is defined by virtually extending the plate-like displays 11a-e toward the rear unit 31 along the plate surface direction. Then, the upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 is arranged to reach the virtual extension area DEA. In detail, various configurations can be adopted, as shown in the following Examples 3-1 and 3-2.

[0086] <Example 3-1> 14, the upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 is positioned higher than the upper end 23c of the mirror holding component 23. In other words, the upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 is disposed so as to protrude from the contact portion 23b of the mirror holding component 23 that contacts the mirror plate 22. The upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 reaches the imaginary extension area DEA, but is separated from the hood 3 so as to leave a space for passing the flexible cable 41.

[0087] With this arrangement, it is difficult to directly check the rear unit 31 from the viewing side through the gaps between the displays 11a to 11e and the mirror plate 22.

[0088] In Example 3-1, the entire surface of the mirror plate 22 facing the viewing side is a reflecting surface 22a that has been subjected to a surface treatment to impart reflective properties.

[0089] <Example 3-2> In Example 3-2 shown in Figure 15, the surface of the mirror plate 22 facing the viewing side is formed with a reflective surface 22a that has been subjected to a surface treatment to impart reflective properties, and a de-reflection surface 22c that is formed to eliminate the reflective properties.

[0090] The reflection-eliminating surface 22c is formed on the end of the mirror plate 22 on the rear unit 31 side, i.e., adjacent to the upper end 22b, at a portion facing the flexible cable 41. The reflection-eliminating surface 22c may be painted in a dark color (e.g., black) as a surface treatment to eliminate specular reflection. The reflection-eliminating surface 22c may be textured as a surface treatment to eliminate specular reflection.

[0091] Such a reflection-reducing surface 22c has the function of blocking the line of sight path P2 through which the occupant indirectly looks into the rear unit 31 through the gap by reflection on the mirror plate 22 and reflection on the flexible cable 41.

[0092] According to the third embodiment described above, the display devices 11a-e and the mirror plate 22 are spaced apart from each other, and the components are arranged so that the upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 reaches the virtual extension area DEA. This component arrangement makes it difficult to see from the viewing side through the gaps in the rear unit 31. As a result, the appearance of the display device 10 is improved.

[0093] Furthermore, according to the third embodiment, a mirror holding component 23 is provided that is disposed on the rear side of the mirror plate 22 and holds the mirror plate 22 with the contact portion 23b in contact with the mirror plate 22. The upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 is disposed so as to protrude from the contact portion 23b. Here, the mirror plate 22, which is an optical component, has higher shape accuracy than the mirror holding component 23. Therefore, when the mirror plate 22 protrudes from the contact portion 23b to block the line of sight P1, the positional accuracy of the component for blocking with respect to the line of sight P1 is also high. Therefore, the effect of blocking the line of sight P1 and P2 is maximized, and the difficulty of checking the rear unit 31 can be increased.

[0094] Furthermore, according to the third embodiment, the displays 11a-e are disposed on the opposite side of the mirror plate 22 with the displays 11a-e in between, and are assembled to the rear unit 31 and the hood 3 that covers the displays 11a-e. A flexible cable 41 is further provided that conducts electricity between the displays 11a-e and the rear unit 31, has reflective properties, and is disposed along the hood 3. The upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 reaches the imaginary extension area DEA and is disposed so as to leave a space in the imaginary extension area DEA through which the flexible cable 41 passes. This makes it possible to increase the difficulty of identifying the rear unit 31 while allowing the flexible cable 41 to pass through.

[0095] Furthermore, according to the third embodiment, a reflection-eliminating surface 22c is provided in the portion facing the flexible cable 41, which is disposed adjacent to the upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 and is formed to eliminate reflection characteristics. This also blocks the line of sight P2, making it possible to make the rear unit 31 more difficult to see.

[0096] In the third embodiment, the mirror holding component 23 corresponds to the "holding component." The reflecting surface 22a corresponds to the "reflecting portion." The reflection-eliminating surface 22c corresponds to the "reflection-eliminating portion."

[0097] (Other embodiments) Although multiple embodiments have been described above, the present disclosure should not be construed as being limited to those embodiments, and can be applied to various embodiments and combinations within the scope that does not deviate from the gist of the present disclosure.

[0098] For example, the adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the regulating component in the gap portion may be provided at the base end of the regulating component 511, 512, 513 that is connected to the mirror holding component 23. In this case, the adjustment mechanism may be capable of adjusting the position of the structure other than the base end of the regulating component 511, 512, 513 in the vertical direction VD of the vehicle. Also, an adjustment mechanism may be provided at the back surface portion 23a of the mirror holding component 23 that is capable of adjusting the position of the connection portion with the regulating component in the vertical direction VD.

[0099] For example, the multiple displays 11a to 11e may be arranged along a straight line that serves as a reference line.

[0100] For example, a plurality of mirror plates 22 may be arranged, similar to the displays 11a to 11e. In this case, the number of mirror plates 22 may be the same as or different from the number of displays.

[0101] For example, the hood 3 may be included in the display device 10 .

[0102] For example, the display device 10 does not have to be configured to display information from the area facing the driver's seat to the area facing the passenger seat. The display device 10 may be a graphic meter located in the area facing the driver's seat. The display device 10 may also be a center display located in the center of the instrument panel 2.

[0103] Furthermore, the display device 10 does not have to be mounted on a vehicle. The display device 10 may be applied to the housing of a driving simulator, a game, or the like, or may be applied to AV equipment for consumers.

[0104] In the second embodiment, configurations other than those of Examples 2-1 and 2-2 may be applied. For example, a restricting component 513 provided with a buffer portion 513c or restricting components 514 and 517 provided with buffer blocking portions 514d and 517d may be applied to a gap portion corresponding to the center of the instrument panel 2.

[0105] For example, the display device 10 may have an area where the regulating components 511 to 517 are provided, and an area where no regulating components are provided and instead the upper end 22b of the mirror plate 22 reaches the virtual extension area DEA.
