referring to fig. 3, when the autonomous driving vehicle is in the second state, the first driving member 20 drives the first operation control 21 and the second operation control 22 to move, so that the first operation control 21 abuts against the first receiving portion 1011, and the second operation control 22 abuts against the second receiving portion 1021.
The working principle of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be referred to as the following expression:
when the autonomous vehicle is in the first state, the autonomous vehicle may need to be controlled by a steering wheel at this time, and therefore, the first driving component 20 may drive the first operation control 21 to be in the first position, and drive the second operation control 22 to be in the second position, so that the first operation control 21 and the third operation control 31 form at least part of the first handle, and the second operation control 22 and the fourth operation control 32 form at least part of the second handle, so that a user may control the autonomous vehicle more conveniently by using the first handle and the second handle, and the control effect on the autonomous vehicle is enhanced.
When the automatic driving vehicle is in the second state, at this time, the automatic driving vehicle does not need to be controlled through the steering wheel, the first driving part 20 drives the first operation control 21 and the second operation control 22 to move, so that the first operation control 21 is abutted to the first accommodating part 1011, the second operation control 22 is abutted to the second accommodating part 1021, namely, a gap between the first operation control 21 and the first accommodating part 1011 is reduced, and a gap between the second operation control 22 and the second accommodating part 1021 is reduced, so that the volume of the whole steering wheel is reduced, and further, the space occupied by the steering wheel in the cab of the automatic driving vehicle is reduced.
In addition, when the autonomous driving vehicle is in the first state, the first operation control 21 is located on one side of the first side surface 101, the third operation control 31 at least partially abuts against the first side surface 101 of the steering wheel body 10 (it can be understood that the area of the first side surface 101 other than the first receiving portion 1011 is formed), and the first operation control 21 and the third operation control 31 form at least part of the first handle, it can be understood that: the first handle portion abuts on the first side surface 101 except for the first receiving portion 1011, and the first operation control 21 is spaced apart from the first receiving portion 1011, that is: the first handle is located on one side of the first side 101.
Similarly, when the autonomous-driving vehicle is in the first state, the second operation control 22 is located on one side of the second side surface 102, the fourth operation control 32 at least partially abuts against the second side surface 102 of the steering wheel body 10 (it can be understood that the area of the second side surface 102 other than the second accommodating portion 1021 is), and the second operation control 22 and the fourth operation control 32 form at least part of the second handle, it can be understood that: the second handle portion abuts against an area of the second side surface 102 except for the second receiving portion 1021, and the second operation control 22 is spaced apart from the second receiving portion 1021, that is: the second handle is located on one side of the second side 102.
In addition, when the autonomous driving vehicle is in the first state, the first operation control 21 is spaced apart from the first receiving portion 1011 to preferably form at least a part of the first handle with the third operation control 31, and the second operation control 22 is spaced apart from the second receiving portion 1021 to preferably form at least a part of the second handle with the fourth operation control 32. For example: when the first operation control 21, the second operation control 22, the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 are all cylindrical controls, the inner diameter of the first operation control 21 is smaller than the inner diameter of the third operation control 31, and the inner diameter of the second operation control 22 is smaller than the inner diameter of the fourth operation control 32; when the first operation control 21, the second operation control 22, the third operation control 31, and the fourth operation control 32 are all rectangular controls, the inner diameter may also be referred to as a width.
Another example is: a first avoiding portion is disposed on the first side surface 101 corresponding to the first operation control 21, a second avoiding portion is disposed on the second side surface 102 corresponding to the second operation control 22, a third avoiding portion is not disposed on the first side surface 101 corresponding to the third operation control 31, and a fourth avoiding portion is not disposed on the second side surface 102 corresponding to the fourth operation control 32, i.e. at least a portion of the third operation control 31 abuts against a region of the first side surface 101 not provided with the avoiding portion, at least a portion of the fourth operation control 32 abuts against a region of the second side surface 102 not provided with the avoiding portion, the first operation control 21 is disposed in the same direction as the third operation control 31 so as to facilitate the first handle to be better grasped by the user, the second operation control 22 is disposed in the same direction as the fourth operation control 32 so as to facilitate the second handle to be better grasped by the user, thus, it is possible to control: the first operation control 21 is disposed at an interval from the first accommodating portion 1011, and the second operation control 22 is disposed at an interval from the second accommodating portion 1021.
In addition, the position of the first accommodating portion 1011 on the first side 101 may correspond to the position of the first operation control 21, and the position of the second accommodating portion 1021 on the second side 102 may correspond to the position of the second operation control 22. For example: the first receiving portion 1011 may be located at a middle position of the first side 101, and the second receiving portion 1021 may be located at a middle position of the second side 102. And an area of the first side 101 excluding the first receiving portion 1011 may be a plane, and an area of the second side 102 excluding the second receiving portion 1021 may be a plane.
The specific structures of the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021 are not limited, for example: the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021 may be arc-shaped recessed areas (i.e. the cross section of the recessed areas may be arc-shaped), or rectangular recessed areas (i.e. the cross section of the recessed areas may be rectangular, in which case the recessed areas may also be called receiving grooves).
In addition, the recess direction of the first receiving portion 1011 may be a direction toward the second side 102, and the recess direction of the second receiving portion 1021 may be a direction toward the first side 101.
As an alternative embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021 are both grooves.
That is to say: when the autonomous vehicle is in the first state, the first operation control 21 is disposed at a distance from the first receiving portion 1011, and the second operation control 22 is disposed at a distance from the second receiving portion 1021;
when the autonomous driving vehicle is in the second state, the first operation control 21 is accommodated in the first accommodating portion 1011, and the second operation control 22 is accommodated in the second accommodating portion 1021.
In a direction perpendicular to the first side 101 or perpendicular to the second side 102, the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021 may be determined to be grooves.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the autonomous driving vehicle is in the first state, at this time, the user needs to control the autonomous driving vehicle through the steering wheel, and the hand of the user grips the first handle and the second handle, since the steering wheel is provided with the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021, and the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021 are both recesses, the fingers of the hand of the user can be respectively inserted into the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021, so as to increase the friction force between the hand and the first handle and the second handle, and enhance the control effect of the user on the steering wheel.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the steering wheel body 10 may be a rectangular steering wheel, and the first operation control 21, the second operation control 22, the third operation control 31, and the fourth operation control 32 may all be rectangular controls, so that when the volume of the whole steering wheel is reduced, because the first accommodating portion 1011 and the second accommodating portion 1021 are provided on the steering wheel, fingers of both hands can penetrate through the first accommodating portion 1011 and the second accommodating portion 1021, thereby enhancing the control effect of both hands on the first handle and the second handle, and further enhancing the control effect of the user on the autonomous driving vehicle through the steering wheel. For example: the thumbs of the two hands may be respectively inserted into the first receiving portion 1011 and the second receiving portion 1021.
As another optional embodiment, along the direction of the plane where the first side surface 101 or the second side surface 102 is located, both the first accommodating portion and the second accommodating portion are accommodating through holes.
When the autonomous vehicle is in the second state, the first operation control 21 abuts against the first accommodating portion 1011, and the second operation control 22 abuts against the second accommodating portion 1021, that is: at this time, the first operation control 21 and the third operation control 31 are not required to form a first handle, and the second operation control 22 and the fourth operation control 32 are not required to form a second handle, so that the first operation control 21 can be controlled to abut against the first accommodating part 1011, and the second operation control 22 can abut against the second accommodating part 1021, so that the volume of the whole steering wheel is reduced, and the occupation of the space in the cab of the automatic driving vehicle is reduced.
It should be noted that specific contents of the first state and the second state are not limited herein, the first state may refer to a state in which the user needs to control the autonomous vehicle through the steering wheel, and the second state may refer to a state in which the user does not need to control the autonomous vehicle through the steering wheel.
For example: the first state may refer to an emergency state, an emergency takeover autonomous vehicle state, or a manual driving state, and the second state may refer to an autonomous driving state.
As an optional embodiment, the steering wheel further includes a second driving part 30, the second driving part 30 is located in the accommodating cavity 11, the third operation control 31 is connected to a first end of the second driving part 30, and the fourth operation control 32 is connected to a second end of the second driving part 30.
In this way, at least one of the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 can be driven to move by the second driving component 30, so that when the autonomous-driving vehicle switches between the first state and the second state, the positions of the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 can be changed correspondingly, and then the positions and the shapes of the first handle and the second handle can be adjusted, so that the steering wheel can be used more conveniently.
It should be noted that the first driving member 20 and the second driving member 30 may both adopt motors, and the first operation control 21, the second operation control 22, the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 may all be referred to as operation handles or operation buttons.
It should be noted that the number of the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 is not limited herein.
As an alternative embodiment, the first end of the second drive component 30 is provided with at least two third operation controls 31, the second end of the second drive component 30 is provided with at least two fourth operation controls 32, when the first operation control 21 is in the first position, referring to fig. 4, the first operation control 21 is located between the at least two third operation controls 31, the at least two third operation controls 31 and the first operation control 21 form the first handle, when the second operation control 22 is in the second position, the second operation control 22 is located between the at least two fourth operation controls 32, and the at least two fourth operation controls 32 and the second operation control 22 form the second handle.
In this way, the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 have a high general degree, so that the third operation control 31 or the fourth operation control 32 can be conveniently assembled, maintained or replaced.
In addition, the shapes and sizes of any two third operation controls 31 in the at least two third operation controls 31 may also be different, the shapes and sizes of any two fourth operation controls 32 in the at least two fourth operation controls 32 may also be different, and the specific shapes and sizes may be determined according to the positions of each third operation control 31 and each fourth operation control 32. For example: the shape of the operation control near the middle of the first handle and the second handle may be a straight line, and the shape of the operation control near the two ends of the first handle and the second handle may be an arc line, so that the user can hold the first handle and the second handle more effectively.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first end of the second driving component 30 is provided with at least two third operation controls 31, and the second end of the second driving component 30 is provided with at least two fourth operation controls 32, so that the lengths of the first handle and the second handle are correspondingly extended due to the more third operation controls 31 and the more fourth operation controls 32, and further the effect of holding the first handle and the second handle by the user is better, and the control effect of the user on the autonomous driving vehicle through the steering wheel is better.
It should be noted that, when the autonomous vehicle is switched from the first state to the second state and the first driving member 20 drives the first operation control 21 and the second operation control 22 to move, the second driving member 30 may not drive the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 to move, that is, when the autonomous vehicle is switched between the first state and the second state, the positions of the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 do not change.
In addition, when the autonomous vehicle is switched from the first state to the second state and the first driving member 20 drives the first operation control 21 and the second operation control 22 to move, the second driving member 30 may also drive the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 to move, that is, when the autonomous vehicle is switched from the first state to the second state, the positions of the third operation control 31 and the fourth operation control 32 are also changed.
As an alternative embodiment, referring to fig. 3, when the autonomous vehicle is in the second state, the second driving member 30 drives the at least two third operation controls 31 and the at least two fourth operation controls 32 to move, so that the at least two third operation controls 31 abut against each other in sequence, the first operation control 21 is located on one side of the at least two third operation controls 31, the at least two fourth operation controls 32 abut against each other in sequence, the second operation control 22 is located on one side of the at least two fourth operation controls 32, and the first operation control 21 and the second operation control 22 are disposed opposite to each other.
