Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to an operation display device of the air conditioning equipment of the vehicle, in particular operation display device of the air conditioning equipment excellent vehicle visibility of the operating state of the blower fan About. [0004] Conventionally, vehicle air conditioner in the operating state of at ON / OFF state and the blower fan of the vehicle occupant of the air conditioning apparatus in order to know on / off switch and the blower fan of the air volume switch It was common to see the location. In some cases, the rotational speed of the blower fan is determined by sound. [0003] However, if the switches are separated from each other, not only is it difficult to visually recognize the state of the switches, but also it is difficult to determine whether or not the apparatus is actually operating based only on the positions of the switches. was there. In particular, in a so-called auto air conditioner which automatically detects and adjusts the temperature in the vehicle compartment, usually, the operation / stop of the blower fan and the rotation speed thereof are controlled automatically without using the above switch. As vehicle interior noise is reduced,
Since it is difficult to determine the rotation speed of the blower fan by sound, it has become difficult for the occupant to easily confirm the operating states of the air conditioner and the blower fan. On the other hand, in recent years, a multi-display device capable of displaying a plurality of types of contents on a single screen, such as a display for controlling a plurality of in-vehicle devices, using a CRT, a fluorescent display panel, a liquid crystal, or the like has been used. As a result, it has become possible to diversify the contents of displayed information. [0005] In view of the problems of the prior art and the knowledge of the inventor, the main object of the present invention is to provide:
To facilitate operation of the operation button of air conditioners is to provide a working display device of the air conditioning equipment <br/> for high visibility display the operating status of the air conditioning blower fan. [0006] [Means for Solving the Problems] above object, according to the present invention, there is provided a working display of the air conditioning equipment of a vehicle, a plurality
Air conditioner operation is performed on a multi-display device that can display
Operation buttons are arranged close to each other, and the functions of
Display section for displaying at a corresponding position in one screen of the display device
And an operation / stop display unit that shows the operation of the blower fans arranged close to each other in the shape of the blades of the blower fan, and a level display unit that displays a level corresponding to the rotation speed of the blower fan when the blower fan is operating. Shown by the shape of the blade
The present invention is attained by providing a display device characterized in that a display and the level display are displayed simultaneously and close to each other . The operation button of the air conditioner is brought close to the multi-display device.
And display the function of each operation button in one screen of the display device.
At the corresponding position, the operation / stop of the air-conditioning blower fan is displayed in the shape of its blade, and at the same time, the rotational speed levels of the blower fan are displayed close to each other in the same screen.
It is carried out in, the operation of easily air-conditioning equipment at a glance even during operation
The state can be visually recognized. Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. [0009] Figure 1 is a block diagram schematically showing the structure of the air conditioning control device to which the present onset Akira is applied. CPU2
In accordance with the command given from the operation button 1, the air conditioning ECU
5 controls each unit of the air conditioner, and simultaneously drives the multi-display device 4 via the display driver 3. As shown in FIG. 2, the display section of the multi-display device 4 adjacent to each of the buttons 6 to 11 of the operation button 1 has a display 12 to 12 indicating the function of each of the buttons 6 to 11.
16 (function display section) and a table showing the operation of the blower fan
Display 17 and a time display 18 are performed. As shown by these displays 12 to 17, the operation button 6
An operation button 7 selects an upper air supply mode , an operation button 8 selects an upper air supply mode and a lower air supply mode , and an operation button 9 operates a lower air supply mode. The operation button 9 is for selecting the mode, and the operation button 9 is for selecting the defrost / lower air blowing mode.
Is for turning on / off the blower fan and adjusting the air volume. As shown in FIG. 3, the display 17 indicating the operation of the blower fan includes bar graphs 21 and displays 19 and 20 (operation / stop) indicating the shape of the blades of the blower fan.
Display section) . When the blower fan is turned on by pressing the operation button 11, the display 1 in FIG.
As indicated by 9 and 20, the indications of the blade shapes differing by about 45 degrees are alternately displayed to indicate that the blower fan is rotating, ie, start / stop. The bar graph 21 as a level display unit indicates the level of the rotational speed of the blower fan by the length of the display. As described above, according to the present invention, the air conditioner
The operation buttons are arranged close to each other and the function of each operation button is displayed.
Shown in the form of blades of Bro Wa fan operation / stop of the Bro Wa <br/> fan and displays the corresponding position in one screen device
This makes it easy to operate the operation buttons while driving.
The operation of the Rutotomoni Bro word fan immediately visible at a glance,
Moreover, the level display unit for displaying a level corresponding to the rotational speed during operation of the Bro Wa fans, also the level of bromide word fan can be easily visually recognized instantly, yet operate / stop indication in the form of the blade And the level display are displayed simultaneously and close to each other,
Driver's two separate display unit that fits in the same screen in the same field of view quickly even during operation, and can be easily obtained with high information density of the working / stop and operation conditions of the probe Rowafan.
