Referring to fig. 1-4, the present disclosure provides a cockpit area controller 100. The cockpit area controller 100 is applied to a vehicle, and is a core control system of the vehicle. The cockpit area controller 100 can increase the intelligence of the vehicle and meet the use requirements of users.

Therefore, the present disclosure provides a novel cockpit area controller 100, and this cockpit area controller 100 integrates the functions of various controllers required by each cockpit area, forms a relatively integrated overall structure, and then reduces its size in the inside occupation space of vehicle, lightens whole weight, does benefit to lightweight design, reduction in production cost. The specific structure of an embodiment of the cockpit area controller 100 is described below.

Referring to fig. 1-4, in one embodiment, cockpit area controller 100 includes an upper housing 110, a lower housing 120, a circuit board 140, an antenna assembly 130, and a power supply assembly 170. The circuit board 140 is disposed between the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120, the circuit board 140 has a plurality of plug-in components 141, the upper housing 110 has a first surface facing away from the lower housing 120, the plug-in components 141 penetrate through the upper housing 110 and protrude from the first surface, and the power module 170 and the antenna module 130 are disposed on the first surface at intervals and electrically connected to the circuit board 140. A plurality of first fixing pieces 150 connect the upper case 110 and the lower case 120 at edges.

The upper case 110 and the lower case 120 form an outer shell of the cockpit area controller 100, and the upper case 110 is disposed above the lower case 120. The upper housing 110 has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other. When the upper case 110 is mounted to the lower case 120, the second surface of the upper case 110 faces toward the lower case 120, and the first surface of the upper case 110 faces away from the lower case 120.

The upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120 are mated to form an outer housing for the cockpit area controller 100. The cockpit area controller 100 also includes a first mount 150. After the upper housing 110 is mounted to the lower housing 120, the first fixing member 150 is mounted to the upper housing 110 through the lower housing 120, thereby ensuring reliable fixing between the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120. The number of the first fixing members 150 is plural, and the plurality of first fixing members 150 connect the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120 at the edge.

A circuit board 140 is disposed between the upper case 110 and the lower case 120. One surface of the circuit board 140 is attached to the surface of the lower housing 120, and the other surface is attached to the second surface of the upper housing 110. That is, the circuit board 140 is sandwiched between the upper case 110 and the lower case 120, forming a sandwich three-layer structure. After the first fixing member 150 is fixedly connected to the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120, the circuit board 140 can be controllably clamped between the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120.

The circuit board 140 integrates various functional modules, and integrates functions of various controllers required by the cockpit area on the circuit board 140, such as functions of central control, instruments, partial driving, and the like, integrated in the circuit board 140. Corresponding functions are realized through the functional modules of the circuit board 140, the number of controllers is reduced, and the overall volume of the cockpit area controller 100 is further reduced, so that the size of the occupied space of the cockpit area controller 100 after being mounted on a vehicle is reduced.

Also, the circuit board 140 has a plurality of connectors 141, and the plurality of connectors 141 are electrically connected to the circuit board 140. The plurality of plug-in units 141 protrude through the upper case 110 and expose the first surface. In this way, the connector 141 is directly plug-mounted to the wiring harness to be electrically connected to the corresponding functional module of the circuit board 140, so that the cockpit area controller 100 realizes the corresponding functional output for convenience of use. Alternatively, the plurality of plug members 141 are spaced apart from each other at the edge of the upper case 110. Optionally, the plug-in unit 141 may be selected according to different configuration version requirements.

The antenna assembly 130 is disposed on the first surface of the upper case 110, and the antenna assembly 130 can be electrically connected to the circuit board 140. The antenna module 131 is electrically connected with the circuit board 140, so that signal transmission is realized, and the control requirement of the cockpit area controller 100 is met. A power supply assembly 170 is also disposed on the first surface of the upper housing 110, and the power supply assembly 170 is electrically connected to the circuit board 140. The power supply assembly 170 can supply power to the circuit board 140, and the service performance of the circuit board 140 is ensured.

Referring to fig. 1 to 4, cockpit area controller 100 of the present disclosure arranges circuit board 140 between upper housing 110 and lower housing 120 for protection, and arranges antenna assembly 130 and power supply assembly 170 outside upper housing 110, reducing the size between upper housing 110 and lower housing 120, thereby reducing the overall size of cockpit area controller 100 as much as possible. Meanwhile, the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170 generate heat during operation, and after the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170 are arranged outside the upper shell 110, the heat generated by the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170 does not interfere with the heat of the circuit board 140, so that the service performance is ensured, and the heat dissipation of the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170 is facilitated.

Referring to fig. 1 to 4, the cockpit area controller 100 of the present disclosure integrates various functional modules of a cockpit area, and changes the layout of the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170, so as to reduce the overall size of the cockpit area controller 100 as much as possible, improve the integration level, further reduce the space occupied by the cockpit area controller 100 mounted to a vehicle, and reduce the production cost. Meanwhile, the layout mode can also facilitate heat dissipation to a certain extent, and the service performance of the cockpit area controller 100 is ensured.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, optionally, the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120 are disposed in a flat plate shape. Alternatively, the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120 have the same shape and size. Thus, the coupling of the upper case 110 and the lower case 120 can be facilitated. Optionally, the number of the first fixing pieces 150 is six, and the six first fixing pieces 150 respectively realize the fixed connection of the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120 at two edges of the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120, and ensure reliable fixation. Of course, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the number and the position of the first fixing members 150 may be adjusted as required.

Referring to fig. 1, in an embodiment, the upper housing 110 has a plurality of heat dissipating ribs 114 arranged in parallel on the first surface, and the heat dissipating ribs 114 avoid the antenna assembly 130 and the power module 170. That is, the plurality of heat dissipation ribs 114 are disposed in parallel on the first surface of the upper housing 110, and a certain space exists between two adjacent heat dissipation ribs 114. Therefore, heat generated during the operation of the circuit board 140 can be transferred to each heat dissipation rib 114 through the upper shell 110, and further, the heat can be dissipated through the heat dissipation ribs 114 on the outer side of the upper shell 110, so as to reduce the temperature of the circuit board 140 and ensure the use performance of the circuit board 140.

Furthermore, the heat dissipating ribs 114 are disposed on the first surface to avoid the antenna assembly 130 and the power module 170. That is, the heat dissipation ribs 114 are not provided at the positions where the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170 are provided on the first surface. This facilitates the mounting of the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170, reduces the overall thickness of the cabin zone controller 100 while ensuring heat dissipation performance, and also ensures the stability of the mounting of the antenna assembly 130 and the power supply assembly 170, and reduces rattling.

Optionally, the height of the heat dissipation rib 114 protruding from the first surface is slightly lower than, equal to, or slightly higher than the height of the antenna assembly 130 or the battery pack. Therefore, interference with other parts can be avoided, and the use performance can be ensured. Alternatively, the arrangement density of the heat dissipation ribs 114 on the first surface is arranged according to the amount of heat generation to ensure the heat dissipation effect.

In one embodiment, the upper housing 110 is formed of die-cast aluminum alloy, and the lower housing 120 is formed of die-cast aluminum alloy, aluminum alloy or steel sheet metal.

After the upper shell 110 is formed by die-casting aluminum alloy, the upper shell 110 has good heat conductivity, so that heat of the circuit board 140 can be transferred to the heat dissipation ribs 114, heat dissipation of high-heat-consumption devices is facilitated, and the heat dissipation effect of the circuit board 140 is ensured. And the lower case 120 may be formed of a die-cast aluminum alloy. Therefore, heat generated during the operation of the circuit board 140 can be partially dissipated through the lower housing 120, which greatly increases the heat dissipation area and is more favorable for heat dissipation. Of course, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the lower housing 120 may also be made of aluminum alloy or steel sheet metal.

Referring to fig. 3, in an embodiment, the upper housing 110 has a second surface disposed toward the lower housing 120, and the cockpit area controller 100 further includes a plurality of second fixtures 160, the plurality of second fixtures 160 fixing the circuit board 140 to the second surface.

The circuit board 140 is attached to the second surface of the upper housing 110, and the second fixing member 160 is used to fix the circuit board 140 to the upper housing 110, so as to prevent the circuit board 140 from moving at the position of the upper housing 110, and ensure that the circuit board 140 can be reliably fixed. When the cockpit area controller 100 of the present disclosure is installed, the circuit board 140 is placed on the second surface of the upper housing 110, and then the second fixing member 160 is fixed to the upper housing 110 through the circuit board 140, so as to fixedly install the circuit board 140.

Optionally, the first fixing member 150 and the second fixing member 160 are screws.

Referring to fig. 3, in an embodiment, a plurality of the second fixing members 160 are spaced apart from each other and are located at a central region of the circuit board 140 and near an edge of the circuit board 140. After the second fixing members 160 are spaced apart from each other, the circuit board 140 can be reliably fixed. Also, the plurality of second fixing pieces 160 fix the circuit board 140 to the upper case 110 at a position near the edge in the middle of the circuit board 140, and in cooperation with the clamping operation of the upper case 110 and the lower case 120, sufficient constraint of the circuit board 140 can be achieved.

Illustratively, the number of the second fixing members 160 is two, two second fixing members 160 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction shown in fig. 3, and the two second fixing members 160 are located at the central region of the circuit board 140 and near the upper and lower edges of the circuit board 140. The fixing of the circuit board 140 is reliable, and the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120 are fixed by matching with the first fixing member 150, so that the circuit board 140 is sufficiently constrained. Of course, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the number of the second fixing members 160 may be more.

Referring to fig. 1, in an embodiment, the antenna assembly 130 includes a plurality of antenna modules 131, a plurality of antenna harnesses 132 and a plurality of harness fixing members 133, the plurality of antenna modules 131 are disposed at intervals on the first surface of the upper housing 110, and are electrically connected to the circuit board 140 through the upper housing 110 by the corresponding antenna harnesses 132, and each of the antenna harnesses 132 is fixed to the first surface by at least one harness fixing member 133.

A plurality of antenna modules 131 are spaced apart from each other on the first surface of the upper housing 110. The upper case 110 has an interface 112 provided therethrough. Each antenna module 131 is connected to one antenna harness 132, and the antenna harness 132 is disposed on the first surface and electrically connected to the circuit board 140 through the interface 112. That is, one antenna harness 132 establishes electrical connection of one antenna module 131 with the circuit board 140.

A certain distance exists between two adjacent antenna modules 131, so that signal interference between the antenna modules 131 can be avoided, and the reliability of signal transmission is ensured. Optionally, the antenna module 131 is a BT/WIFI (bluetooth/wireless) antenna function. Illustratively, the number of antenna modules 131 is two.

The antenna harness 132 may collide with the heat dissipation rib 114 on the first surface when the first surface is arranged, so the antenna assembly 130 of the present disclosure further includes a harness fixing member 133, and the harness fixing member 133 fixes the antenna harness 132 to the heat dissipation rib 114, thereby avoiding generation of abnormal sound. Optionally, the harness fixing member 133 is an antenna clip. Optionally, each wire harness is secured by at least one wire harness securing member 133.

The antenna harness 132 connected to the antenna module 131 is a coaxial cable, the cost is high, the shorter the wire length of the antenna harness 132 is, the more beneficial the signal transmission is, the interface 112 of the antenna harness 132 is located on the upper shell 110, so that the antenna module 131 is fixed to the upper shell 110, and the other positions are found separately to be fixed, thereby greatly shortening the length of the antenna harness 132, realizing the cost reduction, and simultaneously ensuring the signal transmission quality.

In an embodiment, the antenna module 131 is fixed to the first surface by an adhesive, a third fixing element, or a snap-fit manner. It can be appreciated that the antenna module 131 has a low weight, and the antenna module 131 can be fixed to the first surface by gluing, for example, 3M-sized adhesive backed on the first surface of the upper housing 110. Of course, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the antenna module 131 may also be fixed to the first surface of the upper housing 110 by a third fastener which is a screw, or a snap, etc., as long as the antenna module 131 can be reliably fixed.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, in an embodiment, the cockpit area controller 100 further includes at least two sets of limiting assemblies, the limiting assemblies are respectively disposed on the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120, and the at least two sets of limiting assemblies are asymmetrically disposed. The limiting component is used for realizing the positioning of the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120 during assembly, and is convenient for the installation of the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120.

After the asymmetric limiting components are arranged, the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120 can only be positioned and installed through the limiting components at corresponding positions, the positioning accuracy of the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120 can be ensured, and reverse installation is avoided. Illustratively, the number of the limiting components is two, one of the limiting components is located at one side of the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120, the other limiting component is located at the other side of the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120, and the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120 are limited by the limiting components at the same side. Of course, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the limiting assemblies may be a group.

In an embodiment, the limiting assembly includes a first limiting member 111 and a second limiting member 121, the first limiting member 111 is disposed on the upper housing 110, the second limiting member 121 is disposed on the lower housing 120, and the first limiting member 111 and the second limiting member 121 limit the installation of the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120.

When the upper housing 110 is installed on the lower housing 120, the upper housing 110 is correspondingly matched with the second limiting member 121 at the corresponding position of the lower housing 120 through the first limiting member 111, so as to limit the installation of the upper housing 110. Optionally, one of the first limiting member 111 and the second limiting member 121 is a limiting rib, and the other is a limiting groove, and the limiting rib is mounted in the limiting groove to position the upper shell 110 and the lower shell 120.

For example, the first limiting member 111 is a limiting rib, and the second limiting member 121 is a limiting groove. When the upper housing 110 is assembled with the lower housing 120, the limiting rib of the first limiting member 111 can be located in the limiting groove of the second limiting member 121.

The battery pack is electrically connected with the circuit board 140 to supply power to the circuit board 140, so as to ensure the service performance of the circuit board 140.

The battery case 171 covers the outside of the battery pack, thereby playing a role in protection, preventing other components from colliding with the battery pack, and ensuring the use performance of the battery pack. Meanwhile, the battery case 171 can also be fixedly mounted to the first surface of the upper case 110, ensuring that the battery pack is reliably fixed to the upper case 110. That is, the battery case 171 encloses with the first surface an installation space in which the battery pack is located.
