Definitions
- the invention relates to a vehicle operating device for operating in particular vehicle elements.
- Operating devices in particular hand-operable operating devices for vehicles in the center console or armrest area, are known in many ways.
- so-called joysticks are used to make numerous functions, especially in the commercial vehicle sector, such as in the off-road area, feasible.
- Such functions include not only operating hydraulic functions for implements, but also operating a navigation system and the like. This often results in the problem that such a joystick can be configured only limited by a maximum number of actuators can be arranged.
- functions can be actuated by means of rocking movements, the operating elements on such joysticks are not sufficient to combine the numerous control signals required today for a wide variety of functions of the vehicle in one lever.
- knob or control knob is arranged in such cars on the center console, whereas an armrest or armrest for placing an arm is to be arranged separately.
- the placement of the knob within the center console not only takes up space that could otherwise be used as storage space, but also causes the inconvenient operation of the knob after, as the arm of the operator person is placed on the armrest.
- a vehicle operating device has a three-dimensional, plastically deformable by hand forces body and below an outer layer of the body at least one at least one finger of a hand be assigned to the hand forces in their position changeable sensor surfaces for detecting finger actuation movements are arranged. Preferably, at least five Assigned sensor surfaces for the fingers of a hand. This means that each finger is assigned a sensor surface.
- the vehicle operating device is preferably equipped with an armrest for vehicle seats, so that the vehicle operating device can be conveniently operated by placing the arm of a driver.
- Such an operating device allows not only by the adaptation of the body to a palm and its finger sizes a comfortable operation, but also a quick, easy and intuitive operation of a large number of serving functions of the vehicle. Because the body adapts not only to the hand shape, but even allows the movement or correct positioning of the sensor surfaces, so that they are always reliably associated with the five fingers of an operator's hand. If the operator has a hand with short fingers, these sensor surfaces can again be moved correspondingly below the outer layer, just as it would happen if a hand with very long and thin fingers were placed on the adjustable base body.
- a displacement of a finger can also cause a displacement of the sensor surfaces, wherein the sensor surfaces are arranged below or above the outer layer and this outer layer can be arranged on a gel-like material, which in turn is connected to a solid preform, which is located below this gel-like material ,
- This preform already has the finger grids in which the sensor surfaces can be arranged. If the operator has long fingers, the sensor surfaces within these finger hollows are thus positioned at a different location than a person with short fingers.
- the gel-like material can also be omitted so that the outer layer with the associated sensor surfaces, which may be arranged below or above the outer layer, rests directly on the preform with the preformed finger recesses.
- Such a deformation or deformation of the body and also the sensor surface positions can be reversed after leaving or when leaving the vehicle.
- Such reversals can be made by bringing the deformed base body into a starting position, for example by means of the application of an electrical voltage, to which a medium which is located within the basic body reacts in a relaxing manner.
- the operating device by means of a control device on standardized interfaces to the rest of the vehicle network.
- the intuitive operation which results from such a hand-adapted form with the associated sensor surfaces, allows a large number of control options, whose operating principle is equivalent to an operating level and the need for a look at the operating device.
- the operating device which can be quite ball-shaped, with his hand and deforms it by slight pressure into a shape adapted to his hand, so that the outer layer and the resulting outer shape of the operating device form the desired shape of the hand the operator has.
- an overview table or an overall image with the available functions, such as navigation system, radio, etc., with the associated functional levels is displayed on a display device or a screen, for example.
- Possible functions that can be operated with such an operating device not only the navigation system and the radio, but also a CD player, air conditioning, settings for the off-road driving modes, menus, as known from previous vehicles are, for example, for heaters, air conditioners and the like.
- the thumb is assigned a sensor surface which switches between these individual functional areas or functions and an operation within the called functional area is possible with the other fingers.
- a firm press of the thumb may call for the navigation system as a functional area and a firm press of the index finger allow calling the radio as a functional area in the screen or the display device.
- the arm can lie on the arm rest in such a way that the operator can operate the operating head or the operating device with the main body without twisting the wrists by hand.
- a simple press of the hand of the operator allows an adaptation of the outer shape of the body.
- a medium such as granules and / or an elastomer and / or a highly viscous fluid and / or an inert gas , which is suitable for plastic deformation and adaptation to the palm and the individual fingers of the hand.
- the medium is designed such that it retains a plastic deformation initially experienced by means of the hand forces until a return of the plastic deformation to an initial shape is carried out by means of a reset signal.
- the reset signal is transferable when leaving the vehicle by an operator to the control device. This can happen automatically when opening the door, pulling the ignition key or lifting the seat, for example.
- the medium preferably has a volume region of the base body, which is closed off from further volume regions or can be connected to at least one further compensation volume region. In this way, in the presence of a closed volume area, it can be ensured that no medium is lost, whereas when connected to a compensation volume area it is possible for the basic body to change in its basic volume, depending on whether the operator is a small hand or has a big hand.
- the sensor surfaces preferably have pressure sensors and / or capacitive sensors and / or piezo sensors, which generate electrical actuation signals upon finger actuation and transmit them to a central control unit in wired or wireless fashion.
- the outer layer is a first film layer, under which a second film layer is arranged with the sensor surfaces arranged thereon. The sensor surfaces can therefore be arranged on the outside of the second film layer. Alternatively, the sensor surfaces can also be present on the inside of the first film layer for saving a second film layer.
- the first film as the outer layer is advantageously a material which is designed to be light and flexible on the surface of the main body and whose soft surface is pleasant and in the form of an elastic film.
- Materials for such elastic film may be elastomers and thermoplastics such as TPO, PUR, PVC, PC and PC / PBT.
- the sensor surfaces on the second film may be printed, painted and / or sprayed conductive surfaces on the surface of the film.
- the electrical signals or actuation signals are generated, which are transmitted to the control device for the execution of further control signals to the respective functional elements of the vehicle.
- the sensor surfaces are configured to generate a restoring force to generate a tactile confirmation signal in response to a finger pressure stress. This allows confirmation for the operator that a function has been activated. During this operation, it is not necessary to look at the operating device. Rather, all attention can be focused on the traffic and the exterior of the car.
- the operating device or the operating head has a rotary and / or articulated joint with the armrest connecting, wherein a rotational and bending movement of the base body causes the generation of further electrical actuation signals. This makes it possible to increase the number of possible operating steps for different functions within the vehicle.
- the control device is preferably connected by means of at least one data transmission line with a touch-sensitive display device.
- a wireless Data transmission takes place.
- the display device can display all actuated commands within the operating device in the form of a display, wherein the display can be designed, for example, as a dashboard screen or as a head-up display.
