Compared to multiple buttons of intensive setting of the prior art, or single rocking rod controller of contact structure, the present invention uses pressure transducer as sensing original paper, can the presence or absence of induction pressure, again can the size of induction pressure.Pressure transducer is located on substrate, substrate can be pcb board, the pressure signal collected can be delivered in vehicle-mounted computer (ECU), may be used for controlling the operation such as mobile of the movement of cursor on display screen, choice box after treatment, further, when apply little defeat urgent pressure transducer time, cursor carries out moving one by one one by one, when the power applied continues for some time or applies large force, cursor can carry out continuous moving；In the present invention, rocking bar can carry out depression, is located at rocking bar circumferential pressure sensor and receives pressure, and be defined as depression during lower pressure.
As preferably, the periphery of described rocking bar and substrate connecting portion position is provided with symmetrical four pressure transducer, and the line of symmetrically arranged pressure transducer is parallel with the horizontal direction of steering wheel or vertical direction.
Four pressure transducers can individually sense the pressure on four direction, in addition, when the oblique inclination of rocking bar, oppress two pieces of pressure inductors, oblique operation is may be defined as after vehicle-mounted computer identifying processing, therefore, the move that four pressure transducers in the present invention can produce on eight directions determines instruction with pressure down, greatly facilitates operation.
As preferably, the periphery of described rocking bar and substrate connecting portion position is provided with symmetrical four pressure transducer, and the horizontal direction of the line of symmetrically arranged pressure transducer and steering wheel is the angle of 10 ° ~ 50 °.
The process of applicant's test products finds, when driver holds steering wheel operation rocking bar, it is subject to the restriction holding posture and thumb physiological structure, the pressure transducer of setting perfectly level, vertically symmetrical in-convenience in use, and by after angularly disposed for pressure transducer, use sense can be greatly improved, more convenient to operate；Such as, originally on horizontally disposed pressure transducer, thumb returns hook corresponding to an oblique instruction, not downward instruction, this operating habit general with people is runed counter to, and on the pressure transducer after being obliquely installed, thumb returns hook corresponding to downward instruction, meet the operating habit that people is general, be greatly improved use sense.
Preferred angle of inclination is 10 ° ~ 50 °, it is more preferable to angle be 20 ° ~ 30 °.
As preferably, the periphery of described rocking bar and substrate connecting portion position is provided with four pressure transducers, four described pressure transducers are distributed between two near operation finger a region with away from the b region operating finger, and the spacing between be smaller than in b region two pressure transducers between two pressure transducers in a region.
The purpose of above structure is a little also for the convenience promoting thumb manipulation, during thumb movement, substantially can regard as with phalanges end be fulcrum fork move, further away from phalanges end, the radius of swing is more big, therefore, near the compact setting of pressure transducer of thumb in above structure, away from the of a relatively loose setting of pressure transducer of thumb, more conform to the custom of thumb manipulation, use sense can be greatly promoted.
As preferably, angle between line and the horizontal direction of steering wheel of symmetrically arranged pressure transducer obtains by adjusting the angle of inclination of the multifunctional controller in control assembly, i.e. in the assembling process of control assembly, multifunctional controller is obliquely installed, achieves the goal.
As preferably, angle between line and the horizontal direction of steering wheel of symmetrically arranged pressure transducer obtains by adjusting the setting direction of the pressure transducer on substrate, i.e. in the production of substrate and the assembling process of pressure transducer, pressure transducer is obliquely installed, achieves the goal.
As preferably, described rocking bar top is provided with block, and described multifunctional controller is also associated with vibrating elements.This structure makes the depression of rocking bar can be identified and produce signal, and this operation signal can for operating with " determination ", and meanwhile, when carrying out pressing operation, vibrating elements can produce vibrational feedback, has better use sense.Vibrating elements can be vibrations motor.
Compared with prior art, the method have the advantages that pressure sensor application on steering wheel in multifunctional controller, the size of pressure and persistent period can be made different operation reactions, diverse in function, multifunctional controller structure in the present invention and mode of operation more conform to the operating habit of thumb simultaneously, are provided that better use sense is subject to.
