  Regarding the perception of the vehicle position by the driver, the present inventor has newly found the following problem.

  For example, when walking, such as when walking, without moving the front field of view, such as the front pillar, humans unconsciously perceive the optical flow extending from the vanishing point of the field of view to the feet as a virtual axis in the spatial coordinate system. it can. Therefore, it is easy to accurately recognize its own position, moving direction, moving speed, and the like with reference to the virtual axis.

  On the other hand, when the vehicle is driven, the optical flow extending from the front vanishing point toward the vehicle side is interrupted at the periphery of the front window, the bonnet, and the like, and the optical flow does not reach the driver's feet. As a result, a deviation occurs between the space coordinate system outside the passenger compartment imaged by the driver and the space coordinate system inside the passenger compartment, and the driver's spatial perception is likely to be disturbed.

  Therefore, it becomes difficult for the driver to accurately perceive the virtual axis extending from the vanishing point to his / her feet, and it becomes difficult to accurately recognize the vehicle position in the lane. This causes driving that is biased to one side of the lane and meandering in the lane, particularly when the driver is unfamiliar with driving. Such a problem also applies to a vehicle that employs the technique of Patent Document 1 described above.

  In order to deal with such a new problem, the inventor of the present application has attempted to develop a vehicle interior structure that makes it easy to match the space coordinate system outside the vehicle cabin and the space coordinate system inside the vehicle cabin. ing.

[Arrangement of vehicle display device]
Hereinafter, characteristics of the arrangement of the display device 30 in the vehicle interior will be described. The arrangement of the display device 30 described below is configured based on a predetermined reference state.

  The reference state will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 6. The reference state in the present embodiment is that the driver of a predetermined body type sitting on the driver's seat 4 located at a predetermined reference position moves forward when the vehicle 1 is traveling forward on a flat straight path R1 over the entire length. It is the state which is drive | operating while seeing the reference point P1 on the horizon H1.

  The reference position of the driver's seat 4 in the present embodiment is an intermediate position within the movable range of the driver's seat 4. Specifically, for example, when a lift mechanism that adjusts the vertical position of the driver's seat 4 and a slide mechanism that adjusts the front-rear direction position are provided, the center of the vertical range movable by the lift mechanism and the slide The center position of the front-rear direction range that can be moved by the mechanism is the reference position of the driver's seat 4.

  The predetermined body shape in the present embodiment is a body shape of an occupant serving as a reference for designing the vehicle 1. Specifically, for example, an average body shape of an adult male is adopted as the predetermined body shape. More specifically, for example, the body shape of AM50 (average body shape of an American adult male) determined by US federal standards may be adopted as the predetermined body shape.

  The reference point P1 in the present embodiment is a point where the above-described straight running path R1 intersects on the horizon H1. The reference point P1 matches the vanishing point of the driver's field of view in the reference state.

  In the above reference state, the driver performs the driving while unconsciously perceiving the optical flow extending radially from the vanishing point P1. At this time, the driver unconsciously perceives innumerable virtual axes extending radially from the vanishing point P1 in the spatial coordinate system. These innumerable virtual axes include a reference axis L0 extending linearly from the vanishing point P1 toward the driver's feet, and a direction inclined toward the passenger seat 6 with respect to the reference axis L0. Thus, a predetermined virtual axis L1 extending linearly from the vanishing point P1 toward the vehicle interior is included.

  In the present embodiment, the commander knob 41 and the display 32 are arranged at a position through which the virtual axis L1 passes.

  More specifically, the commander knob 41 is disposed such that the center of the circular upper surface portion is located on the virtual axis L1. The display 32 is arranged so that the commander image 100 on the display screen is positioned on the virtual axis L1. In other words, the display 32 and the display control unit 52 (see FIG. 3) are configured to display the commander image 100 on the virtual axis L1. More specifically, the commander image 100 is displayed on the display 32 so that the center thereof is arranged on the virtual axis L1.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, a layout is realized in which the virtual axis L1 extending from the vanishing point P1 passes through the substantially circular commander image 100 and the upper surface portion of the circular commander knob 41.

  According to the present embodiment, the commander image 100 simulating the shape of the commander knob 41 is displayed on the display 32, so that the driver can be impressed so as to be associated with the commander knob 41 and the commander image 100 having the same shape. This makes it easier for the driver to be aware of the virtual straight line L2 connecting the center of the commander image 100 and the center of the commander knob 41 in the driver's field of view.

  In the driver's field of view, a virtual straight line L2 connecting the center of the commander image 100 and the center of the commander knob 41 substantially coincides with a virtual axis L1 extending linearly from the vanishing point P1 toward the vehicle interior. Therefore, it becomes easy for the driver to accurately perceive the virtual axis L1.

  Therefore, the driver is aware of the virtual axis L1 extending from the vanishing point P1 outside the vehicle interior to the commander knob 41 inside the vehicle interior, so that the spatial coordinate system outside the vehicle interior matches the spatial coordinate system inside the vehicle interior in the driver's image. It becomes easy to let you. Therefore, the driver can easily accurately image the reference axis L0 extending from the vanishing point P1 to his / her feet by improving the accuracy of space recognition. Therefore, the driver can easily recognize the positions of both ends in the width direction of the runway R1 and the position of the vehicle 1 in the runway R1, thereby facilitating proper and stable driving.

  Further, since the display 32 is provided on the instrument panel 20, the commander image 100 displayed on the display 32 is arranged in the vicinity of the front window 13 and the scenery outside the vehicle compartment in the driver's field of view. become. For this reason, in the driver's field of view, the virtual straight line L2 connecting the commander image 100 and the commander knob 41 is related to the optical flow outside the passenger compartment, and the driver can be made conscious. This makes it easier for the driver to perceive the virtual axis L1 extending from the vanishing point P1 toward the commander knob 41 in the driver's field of view.

  In the present embodiment, the dial switch 18 located between the commander image 100 and the commander knob 41 in the driver's field of view is also arranged on the virtual axis L1. More specifically, the center of the circular end face of the dial switch 18 is disposed on the virtual axis L1. Since the dial switch 18 also has the same cylindrical shape as the commander knob 41, the dial switch 18 is easily linked to the commander knob 41 and the commander image 100 to make the driver aware of it. Therefore, the virtual axis L1 can be more easily perceived by the driver.

  While the present invention has been described with reference to the above-described embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the example in which the commander image 100 as the operation unit image is configured by the two arc portions 110 and 120 has been described. However, in the present invention, the operation unit image is configured by a complete circular unit. May be.

  Moreover, although the commander knob 41 as an operation part demonstrated the example which has a circular part in the above-mentioned embodiment, in this invention, the shape of an operation part is not limited to this, For example, it has a polygon part. It may be configured as follows. When the operation unit has a shape other than a circle, the operation unit image is configured in the same shape as the operation unit.

  As described above, according to the present invention, it becomes possible for the driver to easily recognize the vehicle position in the lane by using the display of the vehicle display device provided in the passenger compartment. There is a possibility of being suitably used in the field of manufacturing industries of automobiles equipped with a display device in the passenger compartment.
