Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] However, in the configuration disclosed in Patent Document 1, since the detection unit is provided on the design surface (the inner side surface of the vehicle interior) of the vehicle interior material, unevenness occurs on the design surface, or characters, figures, symbols, etc. (hereinafter referred to as characters, etc.) for the occupant to recognize the detection unit are constantly displayed on the design surface of the detection unit. Therefore, it is desired to improve the design property. On the other hand, for improving the design property, for example, a configuration in which a skin printed with the above - mentioned characters, etc. is attached so as to cover the detection unit with respect to the design surface of the vehicle interior material can be considered. However, in that case, it is necessary to attach the skin so that the characters, etc. are not misaligned and are located on the outside of the vehicle compartment of the detection unit, and it is difficult to align the position.

[0005] This disclosure is a technology completed based on the circumstances described above, and one of its objectives is to provide a vehicle display device that can improve design aesthetics. Another objective is to provide a practical vehicle display device that allows the occupant to recognize the position of the detection unit. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] This disclosure relates to a vehicle display device comprising a base material, a light irradiating member disposed on the vehicle interior side of the base material and irradiating light toward the base material, and a detection unit disposed between the base material and the light irradiating member, wherein the base material comprises a main body portion and a flexible portion that can bend at least toward the vehicle interior side from the main body portion, the flexible portion comprises a first transmissive portion that transmits light irradiated from the light irradiating member toward the vehicle interior side, and the detection unit is disposed on the vehicle interior side of the first transmissive portion and is configured to detect when the flexible portion bends toward the vehicle interior side and presses against the detection unit.

[0007] In such a vehicle display device, the planar shape of the first transparent portion forms characters, and when light emitted from the light emitting member passes through the first transparent portion toward the vehicle interior, characters appear on the vehicle interior side of the base material. When the occupant presses the portion of the base material where these characters appear (the first transparent portion) toward the vehicle interior, the flexible portion bends toward the vehicle interior, and the detection unit can detect this pressure. This makes it possible to provide a vehicle display device that can perform functions corresponding to characters while improving the design.

[0008] The vehicle display device comprises an elastic member having elasticity and disposed on the vehicle interior side of the base material, and a light-transmitting surface material attached to the elastic member from the vehicle interior side, wherein the elastic member may have a second transparent portion that transmits light that has passed through the first transparent portion toward the surface material.

[0009] With such a vehicle display device, by forming characters or the like with the planar shape of the first transmissive part, when the light irradiation from the light irradiating member is turned ON, the light that has passed through the first and second transmissive parts passes through the surface material, causing the characters or the like to appear on the surface material. When the light irradiation from the light irradiating member is turned OFF, the characters or the like disappear, and the surface material can exhibit a desired texture. This allows the occupant to recognize the position of the detection unit and provides a vehicle display device that can improve design aesthetics. Furthermore, the unevenness and hardness of the base material can be buffered by the elastic member, improving the texture and feel of the surface material attached to the elastic member from the inside of the vehicle interior. For example, when attaching the surface material to the base material under vacuum conditions, the unevenness and hardness of the base material tend to appear on the surface material, so the above configuration is suitable for bonding surface materials under such conditions. In addition, since the detection unit is located on the outside of the vehicle interior of the base material, the shape of the detection unit does not appear on the surface material, thus preventing a decrease in design aesthetics.

[0010] In the above configuration, the light irradiating member comprises a light source and a light guide that guides the light generated from the light source, and the light guide may comprise a light guide body and an extension that extends from the light guide body toward the vehicle interior side of the light source.

[0011] According to such a vehicle display device, when the portion of the substrate located on the vehicle interior side of the light source is pressed, the extended portion can prevent the pressed portion from coming into contact with the light source.

[0012] In the above configuration, the base material may be configured such that the main body portion and the flexible portion are partially separated by a slit, allowing the flexible portion to bend away from the main body portion.

[0013] With this configuration, it is possible to provide a practical vehicle display device that allows the flexible part to bend easily and effectively transmits the pressure on the base material to the detection unit. [Effects of the Invention]

[0014] The present disclosure aims to provide a vehicle display device that can improve design aesthetics. Another objective is to provide a practical vehicle display device that allows the occupant to recognize the position of the detection unit. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0016] <Embodiment 1> Embodiment 1 of this disclosure will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 5. In this embodiment, a display device (vehicle display device) 100 provided on a door trim (vehicle interior material) 1 attached to the door of an automobile (vehicle) will be described. In each figure, the arrow direction FR is forward, the arrow direction RR is rearward, the arrow direction U is upward, the arrow direction D is downward, the arrow direction IN is inside the vehicle interior, and the arrow direction OUT is outside the vehicle interior.

[0017] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the door trim 1 includes a trim portion 2 that forms most of the door trim 1 and is plate-shaped, a plate-shaped ornament board 3 attached to the trim portion 2, and a display device 100 provided above the ornament board 3. When light is irradiated from a light irradiation member 30 (see FIG. 3), the display device 100 is in a state where characters C etc. are displayed on the vehicle interior side surface 5A of the skin material 5 (see FIG. 2). On the other hand, when no light is irradiated from the light irradiation member 30, the display device 100 is in a state where no characters C etc. are displayed and only the vehicle interior side surface 5A of the skin material 5 is shown (see FIG. 1). In this embodiment, the characters C etc. represent specific figures or a plurality of Roman numerals (I, II, III). The occupant can adjust, for example, the angle of the seat on which he / she is seated by pressing the characters C etc. displayed on the display device 100.

[0018] As shown in FIG. 3, the display device 100 includes a base material 20, a light irradiation member 30 arranged on the vehicle exterior side of the base material 20 and irradiating light in the direction of the base material 20 (the vehicle interior side direction), a housing member 40 arranged on the vehicle exterior side of the base material 20 and housing the light irradiation member 30 between it and the base material 20, a plurality of detection parts 6 arranged between the base material 20 and the light irradiation member 30, an elastic member 10 arranged on the vehicle interior side of the base material 20, and a skin material 5 having light transmissivity and attached to the elastic member 10 from the vehicle interior side. The housing member 40 includes a housing part 41 that is concave-shaped on the vehicle exterior side following the outer shape of the light irradiation member 30, and two hole parts 42 provided on both sides in the front-rear direction of the housing part 41.

[0019] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the light irradiation member 30 includes a substrate 31, a plurality of light sources (LEDs) 32 attached to the substrate 31, and a plate-like light guide 33 that guides the light generated from the light sources 32 in a planar manner and emits it to the vehicle interior side. The light guide 33 includes a plurality of rectangular plate-like light guide main body portions 34 arranged in the front-rear direction, an extension portion 35 extending upward (toward the vehicle interior side of the light sources 32) from the light guide main body portion 34, a plurality of cut portions 36 provided in pairs between adjacent light guide main body portions 34 and extending downward from the upper end of the light guide 33, and a plurality of intermediate portions 37 provided between the two cut portions 36 and having a long plate shape in the vertical direction. The cut portion 36 is a cut that partitions the light guided from the light source 32 to the light guide main body portion 34 directly below it so that the light does not spread in the front-rear direction (to other light guide main body portions 34). The light source 32 is configured such that three light sources 32R, 32G, and 32B that constitute the three primary colors of light are arranged side by side in the front-rear direction with respect to one light guide main body portion 34. These three light sources 32R, 32G, and 32B include a first light source 32R that emits red light, a second light source 32G that emits green light, and a third light source 3nB that emits blue light. The light irradiation member 30 can emit light of an arbitrary color from the light guide 33 to the vehicle interior side by adjusting the current flowing through the three light sources 32R, 32G, and 32B, respectively.

[0020] The detection unit 6 is disposed on the vehicle exterior side of the first transmission unit 24 of the base material 20 and detects that the bending portion 23 bends toward the vehicle exterior side and presses the detection unit 6. The detection unit 6 is not particularly limited, and for example, a film-like pressure-sensitive sensor having light transmissivity can be employed. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the detection unit 6 is in contact with the contact portion 23B of the bending portion 23, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a gap may be provided between the detection unit 6 and the bending portion 23.

[0021] As shown in Figures 3 to 5, the base material 20 comprises a long plate-shaped main body portion 21 with its longer side in the front-rear direction, a plurality (four) of slits 22 arranged in the front-rear direction of the main body portion 21, a plurality (four) of flexible portions 23 arranged in the front-rear direction of the main body portion 21 that can bend (elastically deform) from the main body portion 21 in the direction of the interior and exterior of the vehicle, and two mounting portions 25 that protrude outward from both the front and rear ends of the main body portion 21. The material of the base material 20 is not particularly limited, but for example, it can be made of a resin such as polypropylene, and a resin material that is harder than the elastic member 10 can be used. The base material 20 is attached to the trim portion 2 by being fitted from the interior side (or exterior side) of the vehicle. The mounting portions 25 have a claw shape with a barb and are attached by being inserted into the hole 42 of the housing member 40. The mounting portion 25 is attached to the hole portion 42 (the base material 20 is attached to the housing member 40), and the detection unit 6 and the light irradiation member 30 are sandwiched between the base material 20 and the housing member 40, thereby positioning the detection unit 6 and the light irradiation member 30 relative to the base material 20.

[0022] The slit 22 penetrates the main body 21 in the thickness direction (in the direction of the interior and exterior of the vehicle) and has an outer shape that is U-shaped (a gate shape with the top and bottom facing inverted) when viewed from the front. The slit 22 is formed by laser processing or injection molding. One slit 22 comprises two vertical slits 22A extending downward from the upper end of the main body 21, and a horizontal slit 22B extending in the front-rear direction, connecting the lower ends of the two vertical slits 22A. The vertical slits 22A are superimposed on the interior side of the cut portion 36 of the light guide 33. Inside the slit 22, a rectangular plate-shaped flexible portion 23 is arranged. The upper end 23A of the flexible portion 23 is connected to the main body 21, and both left and right ends and the lower end are separated from the main body 21 by the slit 22. The base material 20 is partially separated from the main body 21 and the flexible portion 23 by a slit 22 (the ends of the flexible portion 23 other than the upper end 23A are separated from the main body 21), which allows the flexible portion 23 to bend away from the main body 21 with the upper end 23A as the pivot point.

[0023] The flexible portion 23 includes a first transparent portion 24 that transmits light irradiated from the light guide 33 of the light irradiation member 30 toward the elastic member 10 side (inside the vehicle interior), and a contact portion 23B (see Figure 5) whose outer surface is in contact with the detection portion 6. The first transparent portion 24 is a through hole that penetrates through the thickness direction of the flexible portion 23. The first transparent portion 24 is formed by laser processing or injection molding. Note that "light transmission" includes the case of "light passing through a through hole such as the first transparent portion 24."

[0024] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the first transparent section 24 comprises a first transparent section 1 24A in which a figure consisting of a sheet mark and the Roman letter M is formed as a planar shape, a first transparent section 2 24B located in front of the first transparent section 1 and in which the Roman numeral I is formed as a planar shape, a first transparent section 3 24C located in front of the first transparent section 2 and in which the Roman numeral II is formed as a planar shape, and a first transparent section 4 24D located in front of the first transparent section 3 and in which the Roman numeral III is formed as a planar shape. One detection section 6 and one light guide body section 34 are superimposed on the exterior side of the first transparent section 1 24A. Similarly, one detection section 6 and one light guide body section 34 are superimposed on the exterior side of the first transparent section 2 24B, the first transparent section 3 24C, and the first transparent section 4 24D, respectively. In Figure 4, the base material 20 is depicted with a solid line, the detection unit 6 with a dashed line, the light irradiation member 30 with a dashed-dotted line, and the housing member 40 with a double-dotted-dotted line.

[0025] The elastic member 10 is made of an elastic body (rubber-like body) and is not particularly limited in its material, but for example, a foamed resin (e.g., polypropylene foam) made by foaming a thermoplastic resin such as polypropylene can be used. The elastic member 10 comprises an elongated plate-shaped elastic main body portion 11 with the front-to-back direction as its longer side, and a plurality of second transparent portions 12 which are through holes that penetrate the elastic main body portion 11 in the thickness direction. The plurality of second transparent portions 12 are arranged in the front-to-back direction and are superimposed on the interior side of the plurality of first transparent portions 24. Each second transparent portion 12 has the same outer shape (planar shape) as the first transparent portion 24 located on the exterior side of the interior. The second transparent portions 12 transmit light that has passed through the first transparent portion 24 toward the surface material 5. The second transparent portions 12 are formed, for example, by laser processing. The second transparent portion 12 can be formed without misalignment with the first transparent portion 24 by laser processing after the elastic member 10 has been attached to the interior side surface of the base material 20 with an adhesive or the like, thereby forming both the first transparent portion 24 and the second transparent portion 12 in one go.

[0026] The surface material 5 can be made of a light-transmitting elastomer. Such an elastomer may be a thermoplastic resin, and specifically, olefin resins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, styrene resins, urethane resins, or polyester resins can be used. Among these, olefin resins are preferred as the material for the surface material 5. The interior side surface 5A of the surface material 5 is flat. Flatness includes shapes that have been decorated with textured patterns or fine irregularities, and for example, it is a flat shape that does not cause discomfort when an occupant touches it with their fingers (for example, to the extent that fingers do not catch on it).

[0027] Next, the effects of this embodiment will be described. In this embodiment, a display device 100 is shown, comprising a base material 20, a light irradiation member 30 disposed on the outside of the base material 20 and irradiating light toward the base material 20, and a detection unit 6 disposed between the base material 20 and the light irradiation member 30, wherein the base material 20 comprises a main body portion 21 and a flexible portion 23 that can bend at least toward the outside of the vehicle interior from the main body portion 21, the flexible portion 23 includes a first transmissive portion 24 that transmits light irradiated from the light irradiation member 30 toward the inside of the vehicle interior, and the detection unit 6 is disposed on the outside of the first transmissive portion 24 and is configured to detect when the flexible portion 23 bends toward the outside of the vehicle interior and presses against the detection unit 6.

[0028] With this display device 100, the planar shape of the first transmissive part 24 forms characters or the like C. When light irradiated from the light irradiating member 30 passes through the first transmissive part 24 in the direction toward the interior of the vehicle, characters or the like C appear on the interior side of the base material 20. When an occupant presses these characters or the like C toward the exterior of the vehicle, the flexible part 23 bends toward the exterior of the vehicle, and the detection unit 6 can detect this pressure. This makes it possible to provide a display device 100 that can perform the function corresponding to characters or the like C while improving the design.

[0029] The display device 100 is disposed on the interior side of the base material 20 and comprises an elastic member 10 having elasticity and a light-transmitting surface material 5 attached to the elastic member 10 from the interior side of the vehicle. The elastic member 10 is provided with a second transmissive portion 12 that transmits light that has passed through the first transmissive portion 24 toward the surface material 5.

[0030] With this display device 100, by forming characters C with the planar shape of the first transmissive part 24, when the irradiation of light from the light irradiating member 30 is turned ON, the light that has passed through the first transmissive part 24 and the second transmissive part 12 passes through the surface material 5, causing the characters C to appear on the surface material 5. When the irradiation of light from the light irradiating member is turned OFF, the characters C disappear, and the surface material 5 can exhibit any desired texture. This allows the occupant to recognize the position of the detection unit 6, and provides a display device 100 that can improve design aesthetics. In addition, the elastic member 10 can buffer the unevenness and hardness of the base material 20, improving the texture and feel of the surface material 5 attached to the elastic member 10 from the inside of the vehicle. For example, when attaching the surface material 5 to the base material 20 under vacuum conditions, the unevenness and hardness of the base material 20 tend to appear on the surface material 5, so the above configuration is suitable for bonding the surface material 5 under such conditions. Furthermore, since the detection unit 6 is located on the outside of the vehicle interior of the base material 20, the shape of the detection unit 6 does not appear on the surface material 5, thus preventing a decrease in design aesthetics.

[0031] The light-emitting member 30 comprises a light source 32 and a light guide 33 that guides the light generated from the light source 32. The light guide 33 comprises a light guide body 34 and an extension 35 that extends from the light guide body 34 toward the interior of the vehicle relative to the light source 32.

[0032] With such a display device 100, when the portion of the substrate 20 located on the vehicle interior side of the light source 32 is pressed, the extension portion 35 can prevent the pressed portion from coming into contact with the light source 32.

[0033] The base material 20 is partially separated from the main body 21 and the flexible portion 23 by a slit 22, allowing the flexible portion 23 to bend away from the main body 21.

[0034] With this configuration, the flexible portion 23 is easily flexible, and a practical display device 100 is provided that can suitably transmit the pressure on the base material 20 to the detection unit 6.

[0035] <Embodiment 2> Next, Embodiment 2 of the present disclosure will be described with reference to Figure 6. In this embodiment, the same reference numerals are used for the same parts as in the above embodiment, and redundant explanations of the structure, operation, and effect are omitted. The display device 200 comprises a base material 220, a light irradiation member 30 disposed on the outside of the base material 220 and irradiating light in the direction of the base material 220 (in the direction of the inside of the vehicle), a housing member 40 disposed on the outside of the base material 220 and housing the light irradiation member 30 between it and the base material 220, and a plurality of detection units 6 disposed between the base material 220 and the light irradiation member 30. In this embodiment, the display device 200 does not include the elastic member 10 and the surface material 5 in Embodiment 1 above, and the flat inside-vehicle side surface (general surface) 220A of the base material 220 is exposed to the inside of the vehicle.

[0036] The base material 220 comprises a long plate-shaped main body portion 221 with its longer side in the front-rear direction, a slit 22 formed through the main body portion 221 in the thickness direction, and a flexible portion 223 that can bend (elastically deform) from the main body portion 221 in the direction of the vehicle interior and exterior. The base material 220 is configured such that the main body portion 221 and the flexible portion 223 are partially separated by the slit 22, allowing the flexible portion 223 to bend from the main body portion 221.

[0037] The flexible portion 223 comprises a thick plate portion 225 and a thin plate portion 224, which is a portion recessed inward from the exterior side surface 220B of the base material 220 (the exterior side surface of the thick plate portion 225) and has a thinner plate thickness (shorter length in the interior-exterior direction) than the thick plate portion 225. The thick plate portion 225 includes a contact portion 225A where the exterior side surface abuts against the detection portion 6. The thickness of the thick plate portion 225 is such that it blocks the light emitted from the light irradiating member 30 (prevents it from passing into the interior of the vehicle). The thickness of the thin plate portion 224 is such that it allows the light emitted from the light irradiating member 30 to pass into the interior of the vehicle, and it is the first transparent portion. By forming letters or the like with the planar shape of the thin plate portion 224, which acts as the first transmissive portion, when light irradiated from the light irradiating member 30 passes through the thin plate portion 224 in the direction toward the interior of the vehicle, letters or the like appear on the interior side surface 220A of the base material 220.
