At least one of the light emitting element and the power receiving circuit portion is disposed adjacent to the display body,
In the display component, a heat dispersing structure for dispersing the heat generated at least one of the above is provided.
このような態様によると、表示部品は、熱分散構造を有している。熱分散構造が、発光素子又は受電回路部の少なくとも一方で発生した熱を分散させている。したがって、表示本体のうち、発光素子及び受電回路部に隣接する部位が局所的に高熱となることが抑制される。こうして高熱部位の発生が抑制される結果、表示本体の変形ないし他部品との間の緩みの発生も抑制することができる。故に、視認対象となり表示を行なう表示本体の表示品位を、高い状態に維持可能とすることができる。
According to such an embodiment, the display component has a heat dispersion structure. The heat dispersion structure disperses heat generated in at least one of the light emitting element and the power receiving circuit unit. Therefore, a portion of the display main body adjacent to the light emitting element and the power receiving circuit portion is prevented from being locally heated. Thus, as a result of suppressing the generation of the high heat portion, it is possible to suppress the deformation of the display main body and the generation of the looseness between the display main body and other parts. Therefore, it is possible to maintain the display quality of the display main body, which becomes an object to be viewed and performs display, in a high state.

このような車両用表示装置100は、表示板10、給電回路部20、ムーブメント30、及び指針40を主体として構成されている。図示しないが、こうした表示板10、給電回路部20、ムーブメント30、及び指針40は、視認側に透光性のフロント板が配置された中空箱状のケース部に収容されている。
表示 Such a vehicle display device 100 mainly includes a display panel 10, a power supply circuit section 20, a movement 30, and a pointer 40. Although not shown, the display panel 10, the power supply circuit section 20, the movement 30, and the hands 40 are housed in a hollow box-shaped case section in which a translucent front plate is arranged on the viewing side.
表示板10は、一般的に文字板とも呼ばれている。表示板10は、例えばポリカーボネイト樹脂ないしはアクリル樹脂等の合成樹脂からなる透光性の基材の表面に、半透光性又は遮光性の印刷が部分的又は全体的に施されて、平板状に形成されている。なお、印刷に代えて、塗装が施されていてもよく、表示板10が遮光性の基材を用いて形成されていてもよい。
The display plate 10 is also generally called a dial. The display panel 10 is partially or entirely subjected to semi-transparent or light-shielding printing on the surface of a light-transmitting substrate made of a synthetic resin such as a polycarbonate resin or an acrylic resin, and has a flat plate shape. Is formed. Note that, instead of printing, painting may be performed, and the display panel 10 may be formed using a light-shielding base material.
本実施形態の表示板10は、表面の大部分を暗色(例えば黒色)の印刷によって遮光性に形成されている。そして、表示板10がケース部に外周を囲まれていることにより、表示板10よりも反視認側に配置される構造及び部品が、覆い隠されている。
表示 The display panel 10 of the present embodiment is formed so as to have a light-shielding property by printing a large part of the surface in dark (for example, black). Since the outer periphery of the display panel 10 is surrounded by the case portion, the structure and components disposed on the opposite side of the display panel 10 from the visual recognition side are covered and hidden.
また、表示板10の左側の領域及び右側の領域には、それぞれ、指針40の配置に対応して、半透光性の印刷によって指標11が形成されている。指標11は、目盛、文字等により構成されている。目盛は、指針40を囲むように、部分円環状に配列されている。文字は、例えば目盛に対応した物理量を示す数字である。こうした指標11は、表示板10よりも反視認側に配置された指標照明用発光素子(例えば発光ダイオード)により照明されて、点灯するようになっている。

給電回路部20は、表示板10よりも反視認側に配置され、当該給電回路部20とは離間して配置された指針40に対して非接触給電可能に構成されている。本実施形態の給電回路部20は、例えば磁界共鳴(magnetic resonance)方式を用いて非接触給電するために、一次コイル21を有している。回路上の一次コイル21と電源との間に設けられた共振器(例えば共振コンデンサ)が共振周波数に基づいて一次コイル21を制御するようになっている。本実施形態の一次コイル21は、複数の指針40に対して共通に設けられており、各指針40を網羅可能なサイズに形成された大型のコイルとなっている。
(4) The power supply circuit section 20 is arranged on the opposite side of the display board 10 from the visual recognition side, and is configured to be able to perform non-contact power supply to the hands 40 disposed apart from the power supply circuit section 20. The power supply circuit unit 20 according to the present embodiment includes a primary coil 21 in order to perform non-contact power supply using, for example, a magnetic field resonance (magnetic resonance) method. A resonator (for example, a resonance capacitor) provided between the primary coil 21 on the circuit and the power supply controls the primary coil 21 based on the resonance frequency. The primary coil 21 of the present embodiment is provided in common for the plurality of hands 40, and is a large coil formed in a size that can cover each hand 40.
ムーブメント30は、表示部品としての指針40を回転させるための駆動機構である。ムーブメント30は、指針40の配置に対応して、2つ設けられている。ムーブメント30は、例えばステッピングモータであり、モータ部31及びシャフト部32を有している。モータ部31は、車両からの電気信号に基づいて制御されており、シャフト部32を回転駆動させる。シャフト部32は、例えば金属により棒状に形成され、モータ部31に連結されており、モータ部31により出力された回転を指針40に伝達する。
The movement 30 is a drive mechanism for rotating the pointer 40 as a display component. Two movements 30 are provided corresponding to the arrangement of the hands 40. The movement 30 is, for example, a stepping motor, and has a motor section 31 and a shaft section 32. The motor unit 31 is controlled based on an electric signal from the vehicle, and drives the shaft unit 32 to rotate. The shaft portion 32 is formed in a rod shape, for example, of metal, is connected to the motor portion 31, and transmits the rotation output by the motor portion 31 to the hands 40.
指針40は、表示板10の指標11を指示することによって車両の情報を表示する表示部品である。指針40は、表示板10の左側の領域及び右側の領域にそれぞれ対応して、複数(本実施形態では2つ)設けられている。各指針40は、対応する指標11を指示することにより、指示位置に応じた情報を表示可能となっている。特に本実施形態では、左側の指針40が左側の指標11を指示することにより、車両の速度が表示されるようになっており、右側の指針40が右側の指標11を指示することにより、車両のエンジン回転数が表示されるようになっている。
The pointer 40 is a display component that displays vehicle information by indicating the index 11 on the display panel 10. A plurality of hands (two in this embodiment) are provided corresponding to the left and right regions of the display panel 10, respectively. Each pointer 40 can display information corresponding to the pointed position by pointing to the corresponding index 11. In particular, in the present embodiment, the speed of the vehicle is displayed by the left pointer 40 pointing to the left index 11, and the vehicle is displayed by the right pointer 40 pointing to the right index 11. Engine speed is displayed.
2つの指針40は、概ね同様の構成となっているため、以下では、左側の指針40について代表して説明する。
た め Since the two hands 40 have substantially the same configuration, the left hand 40 will be described below as a representative.
指針40は、図2,3に示すように、表示本体41、カバー50、発光素子60、及び受電回路部70を、互いに組み付けることにより一体的に有している。
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the pointer 40 has a display body 41, a cover 50, a light emitting element 60, and a power receiving circuit unit 70 which are integrally formed by assembling them with each other.
表示本体41は、例えばポリカーボネイト樹脂ないしはアクリル樹脂等の合成樹脂からなる透光性の基材により、指示部42、導入部43、及び連結軸部44が一体成形された一体成形品となっている。表示本体41は、少なくとも一部(本実施形態では指示部42)がカバー50に対して露出することによって、乗員による視認対象となっており、表示を行なう。
The display main body 41 is an integrally molded product in which a pointing part 42, an introduction part 43, and a connecting shaft part 44 are integrally molded by a light-transmissive base material made of a synthetic resin such as a polycarbonate resin or an acrylic resin. . The display main body 41 is at least partially exposed (in the present embodiment, the indicating section 42) to the cover 50, so that the display main body 41 is visually recognized by an occupant, and performs display.
指示部42は、導入部43から表示板10に沿うように、当該表示板10の延設方向に突出し、基端部42aから先端部42bへ向かう程幅が狭くなる針状を呈している。指示部42は、上述のように、カバー50に対して露出することによって視認対象となっている。指示部42の先端部42bが指標11を指示して上述のように車両の情報が表示される。
The indicator 42 has a needle-like shape that protrudes from the introduction portion 43 along the display plate 10 in the direction in which the display plate 10 extends, and becomes narrower in width from the base end portion 42a to the distal end portion 42b. As described above, the indicator 42 is exposed to the cover 50 and thus becomes a visual target. The tip portion 42b of the instructing section 42 instructs the index 11, and the vehicle information is displayed as described above.
導入部43は、指示部42の基端部42aと明確な境界なく接続されている。導入部43は、カバー50に覆われることによって非視認対象となっている。導入部43は、凹みを形成することによって、発光素子60及び受電回路部70を収容する収容空間40aを画成している。
(4) The introduction portion 43 is connected to the base end portion 42a of the pointing portion 42 without a clear boundary. The introduction portion 43 is a non-visual target by being covered with the cover 50. The introduction portion 43 defines a housing space 40a for housing the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 by forming a recess.
導入部43は、収容空間40aに収容された発光素子60が発した光を表示本体41の内部に導入し、指示部42へと導光する。具体的に導入部43は、発光素子60と対向するように配置された導入面43a、及び、当該導入面43aを挟んで発光素子60とは反対側に配置された反射面43bを有している。特に本実施形態では、カバー50の内部のうち、連結軸部44よりも指示部42とは反対側(以下、反指示部側)の領域A1において、収容空間40a、導入面43a、及び反射面43bが表示板10に実質垂直な軸方向ADに沿うように並んで配置されている。収容空間40aが最も反視認側に位置し、導入面43aが収容空間40aと反射面43bとの間に位置し、反射面43bが最も視認側に位置している。
(4) The introduction unit 43 introduces the light emitted by the light emitting element 60 accommodated in the accommodation space 40a into the inside of the display main body 41 and guides the light to the instruction unit 42. Specifically, the introduction portion 43 has an introduction surface 43a arranged to face the light emitting element 60, and a reflection surface 43b arranged on the opposite side to the light emitting element 60 across the introduction surface 43a. I have. In particular, in the present embodiment, the housing space 40a, the introduction surface 43a, and the reflection surface in the area A1 of the inside of the cover 50 on the opposite side of the connection shaft portion 44 from the indication portion 42 (hereinafter, the opposite indication portion side). 43b are arranged side by side along the axial direction AD substantially perpendicular to the display panel 10. The accommodation space 40a is located closest to the viewing side, the introduction surface 43a is located between the accommodation space 40a and the reflection surface 43b, and the reflection surface 43b is located closest to the viewing side.
発光素子60が発した光は、導入面43aを透過して表示本体41の内部に導入された後、導入面43aに対して傾斜した反射面43bに反射されることによって指示部42へ向かうように方向転換される。そして、指示部42の各部位から外部へと放射されることによって、乗員により指示部42が発光しているものとして視認される。指示部42が発光しているので、表示の読み取りが容易となる。
The light emitted by the light emitting element 60 passes through the introduction surface 43a and is introduced into the inside of the display main body 41, and then is reflected by the reflection surface 43b inclined with respect to the introduction surface 43a, so as to travel to the indicating section 42. Turned to Then, by being radiated to the outside from each part of the instruction unit 42, the occupant visually recognizes the instruction unit 42 as emitting light. Since the indicator 42 emits light, reading of the display becomes easy.
連結軸部44は、導入部43から反視認側に軸方向ADに沿って突出する筒状を呈している。連結軸部44も、カバー50に隠されることによって非視認対象となっている。連結軸部44の中央に開けられた連結穴44aに、シャフト部32が軽圧入された嵌合状態により、連結軸部44は、導入部43及び指示部42とムーブメント30とを連結している。こうして指針40は、ムーブメント30と連結され、軸方向ADに沿った回転中心のまわりに、回動するようになっている。
The connecting shaft portion 44 has a cylindrical shape protruding from the introduction portion 43 to the side opposite to the visual recognition along the axial direction AD. The connection shaft portion 44 is also a non-visual target by being hidden by the cover 50. The connection shaft portion 44 connects the movement portion 30 to the introduction portion 43 and the pointing portion 42 by a fitted state in which the shaft portion 32 is lightly press-fitted into the connection hole 44a formed in the center of the connection shaft portion 44. . In this way, the pointer 40 is connected to the movement 30 and rotates around a rotation center along the axial direction AD.
指針40は、通常、指示部42の配置によって、連結軸部44よりも指示部側の領域A2に重心が偏り易くなるところ、本実施形態では、後述するように、重心を指示部側からより回転中心に近い位置に設定している。
Usually, the center of gravity of the pointer 40 tends to be biased toward the region A2 closer to the indicator than the connecting shaft 44 due to the arrangement of the indicator 42. In the present embodiment, as described later, the center of gravity is moved from the indicator to the indicator. It is set at a position close to the center of rotation.
カバー50は、例えば合成樹脂からなる遮光性の基材により、視認側が天面部51によって塞がれる一方、反視認側が開口することで開口部53を有する筒状に形成されている。カバー50は、天面部51を導入部43よりも視認側に配置した姿勢で、導入部43を外側から覆っている。発光素子60及び受電回路部70は、カバー50により覆い隠されて非視認対象となっている。カバー50は、導入部43と一体の指示部42をカバー50の外部に配置するために、指示部42の基端部42aを挿通させる窓部50aを、側面部52に有している。
The cover 50 is formed in a cylindrical shape having an opening 53 by closing the viewing side with a top surface portion 51 and opening the opposite viewing side with a light-shielding base material made of, for example, a synthetic resin. The cover 50 covers the introduction unit 43 from the outside in a posture in which the top surface unit 51 is disposed closer to the viewing side than the introduction unit 43. The light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 are covered and hidden by the cover 50 and are not visible. The cover 50 has a window portion 50 a in the side surface portion 52 through which the base end portion 42 a of the indicating portion 42 is inserted in order to arrange the indicating portion 42 integrated with the introduction portion 43 outside the cover 50.
また、カバー50の表面のうち、天面部51において視認側を向く視認側部位51a、及び側面部52において外側を向く外側部位52aには、めっきによる金属層が形成されており、カバー50の内側に配置される発光素子60及び受電回路部70に対する電磁シールドとして機能している。金属層は、例えば、指針40の組付け時に、発光素子60及び受電回路部70を静電気から保護する。
In the surface of the cover 50, a metal layer by plating is formed on a viewing side portion 51 a facing the viewing side on the top surface portion 51 and an outside portion 52 a facing the outside on the side surface portion 52. Function as an electromagnetic shield for the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 arranged in the power supply circuit 70. The metal layer protects the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 from static electricity when the pointer 40 is assembled, for example.
発光素子60は、収容空間40aにおいて、導入面43aと対向するように配置されていることで、表示本体41の導入部43に隣接している。本実施形態には、点光源状の発光ダイオードが採用されている。発光素子60は、受電回路部70と電気的に接続されており、当該発光素子60に流れる電流量に応じた強度にて、可視光を発光する可視光発光素子となっている。この可視光は、例えば赤色等の単色光であってもよいし、複数の波長の光が混在した白色光であってもよい。
The light emitting element 60 is adjacent to the introduction section 43 of the display main body 41 by being arranged in the accommodation space 40a so as to face the introduction surface 43a. In the present embodiment, a point light source-like light emitting diode is employed. The light emitting element 60 is electrically connected to the power receiving circuit unit 70, and is a visible light emitting element that emits visible light at an intensity corresponding to the amount of current flowing through the light emitting element 60. The visible light may be, for example, monochromatic light such as red or white light in which light of a plurality of wavelengths is mixed.
受電回路部70は、収容空間40aにおいて、発光素子60を挟んで導入面43aとは反対側に配置されていることで、表示本体41の導入部43及び連結軸部44に隣接している。受電回路部70は、非接触給電により給電回路部20から電力を受電可能となっており、受電した電力によって発光素子60を発光可能となっている。特に磁界共鳴方式が採用された本実施形態の受電回路部70は、表示本体41よりも比重が大きなコイル部71を主体として構成されている。コイル部71は、筒状ないし柱状のボビン71aと、当該ボビン71aに巻回された状態の二次コイル71bとを有している。回路上の二次コイル71bと発光素子60との間に設けられた共振器(例えば共振コンデンサ)が給電回路部20の共振周波数に一致するような周波数で二次コイル71bを制御することにより、発光素子60に電力が供給されるようになっている。なお、本実施形態で設定される共振周波数は、例えばムーブメント30及び外部機器等の他要素を誤作動させないように、他要素が作動する周波数と相違するように設定される。
(4) The power receiving circuit section 70 is arranged on the opposite side of the light-emitting element 60 from the introduction surface 43a in the accommodation space 40a, and thus is adjacent to the introduction section 43 and the connection shaft section 44 of the display main body 41. The power receiving circuit unit 70 can receive power from the power supply circuit unit 20 by non-contact power feeding, and can emit light from the light emitting element 60 by the received power. In particular, the power receiving circuit unit 70 of the present embodiment in which the magnetic field resonance method is employed is mainly configured by the coil unit 71 having a specific gravity larger than that of the display main body 41. The coil unit 71 has a cylindrical or columnar bobbin 71a and a secondary coil 71b wound around the bobbin 71a. By controlling the secondary coil 71b at a frequency such that a resonator (for example, a resonance capacitor) provided between the secondary coil 71b and the light emitting element 60 on the circuit matches the resonance frequency of the power supply circuit unit 20, Electric power is supplied to the light emitting element 60. Note that the resonance frequency set in the present embodiment is set to be different from the frequency at which other elements operate, for example, so as not to malfunction other elements such as the movement 30 and the external device.
こうして、給電回路部20から受電回路部70に電力が伝送され、発光素子60が発光するが、これには受電回路部70及び発光素子60の発熱が伴う。こうして発生した熱により、表示本体41において受電回路部70及び発光素子60に隣接する部位が高熱になると、表示本体41の変形又は表示本体41とシャフト部32との間の結合の緩みが生じる恐れがある。ここでいう隣接する部位とは、発光素子60又は受電回路部70から1cm以下の距離にある部位として定義されるが、5mm以下の距離にある部位として定義されてもよい。
Thus, power is transmitted from the power supply circuit section 20 to the power receiving circuit section 70, and the light emitting element 60 emits light. This is accompanied by heat generation of the power receiving circuit section 70 and the light emitting element 60. If the portion of the display main body 41 adjacent to the power receiving circuit section 70 and the light emitting element 60 becomes high heat due to the generated heat, the display main body 41 may be deformed or the coupling between the display main body 41 and the shaft section 32 may be loosened. There is. Here, the adjacent part is defined as a part at a distance of 1 cm or less from the light emitting element 60 or the power receiving circuit unit 70, but may be defined as a part at a distance of 5 mm or less.
仮に表示本体41が変形してしまう、例えば指示部42が曲がってしまうと、指示部42による指示位置が、本来の位置とはずれてしまうため、表示された車両の情報の正確性が低下することが懸念される。また、仮に表示本体41が変形してしまうと、指針40の重量バランスが悪化し、指針40が不安定な回動となることが懸念される。
If the display body 41 is deformed, for example, if the pointing unit 42 is bent, the pointing position of the pointing unit 42 deviates from the original position, and the accuracy of the displayed vehicle information is reduced. Is concerned. Further, if the display main body 41 is deformed, the weight balance of the hands 40 is deteriorated, and there is a concern that the hands 40 may rotate in an unstable manner.
また、連結軸部44を形成する基材の熱膨張率は、シャフト部32の熱膨張率よりも大きいため、熱の影響により、上述の結合の緩みが発生し得る。そうすると、指針40が揺動し、指示部42による指示位置の特定が困難となることが懸念される。最悪の場合には、指針40の空転が発生し、指針40が回動しなくなってしまうことが懸念される。
基材 Further, since the thermal expansion coefficient of the base material forming the connecting shaft portion 44 is larger than the thermal expansion coefficient of the shaft portion 32, the above-described loosening of the connection may occur due to the influence of heat. Then, there is a concern that the pointer 40 swings and it becomes difficult to specify the designated position by the pointing unit 42. In the worst case, there is a concern that the pointer 40 will idle and the pointer 40 will not rotate.
そこで、指針40には、発光素子60及び受電回路部70で発生した熱を分散させる熱分散構造80が設けられている。具体的に、本実施形態の熱分散構造80は、表示本体41の表面において、本体凹部82及び本体凸部83を交互に並べた本体凹凸構造81を含んでいる。本体凹部82及び本体凸部83は、複数ずつ設けられ、表示本体41の基材によって、表示本体41の一部として、当該表示本体41と一体的に形成されている。本体凹部82は、隣に配置された本体凸部83に対して凹むように形成され、本体凸部83は、隣に配置された本体凹部82に対して突出するように形成されている。本体凹凸構造81が受電回路部70及び発光素子60に隣接する部位又はその部位の周囲に配置されることによって、表示本体41の表面積を増大させて、熱を表示本体41の外部へと効率的に放熱させることができる。
Therefore, the pointer 40 is provided with a heat dispersing structure 80 for dispersing the heat generated in the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70. Specifically, the heat distribution structure 80 of the present embodiment includes a main body concave / convex structure 81 in which main body concave portions 82 and main body convex portions 83 are alternately arranged on the surface of the display main body 41. The plurality of main body concave portions 82 and the plurality of main body convex portions 83 are provided, and are formed integrally with the display main body 41 as a part of the display main body 41 by the base material of the display main body 41. The main body concave portion 82 is formed so as to be recessed with respect to the adjacent main body convex portion 83, and the main body convex portion 83 is formed so as to protrude from the adjacent main body concave portion 82. By arranging the main body uneven structure 81 at a portion adjacent to the power receiving circuit portion 70 and the light emitting element 60 or around the portion, the surface area of the display main body 41 is increased, and heat is efficiently transferred to the outside of the display main body 41. Heat can be dissipated.
各本体凸部83は、例えば表示本体41において背面側に9つ設けられ、導入部43と連結軸部44とを、梁状に接続すると共に、当該連結軸部44から放射状に伸びる平板状に形成されている。本体凸部83が梁状に形成されることで、表示本体41の断面二次モーメントが向上し、変形によって導入部43及び指示部42の連結軸部44に対する角度が変わることが抑制される。また、本体凸部83が連結軸部44を外周側から押さえ込むので、当該連結穴44aの熱膨張が抑制される。
For example, nine main body projections 83 are provided on the back side of the display main body 41, and connect the introduction portion 43 and the connection shaft 44 in a beam shape, and form a flat plate extending radially from the connection shaft 44. Is formed. Since the main body projection 83 is formed in a beam shape, the second moment of area of the display main body 41 is improved, and the angles of the introduction part 43 and the pointing part 42 with respect to the connection shaft part 44 due to deformation are suppressed. Further, since the main body convex portion 83 presses the connection shaft portion 44 from the outer peripheral side, the thermal expansion of the connection hole 44a is suppressed.
各本体凸部83は、板の厚みを例えば一本体凸部83の各部位及び各本体凸部83間において実質同じ厚みとし、カバー50の開口部53を跨ぐように、開口部53よりも背面側へ張り出している。各本体凸部83は、互いに離間して配置されている。これにより、本体凸部83間に各本体凹部82が形成されている。
Each of the main body projections 83 has, for example, a substantially same thickness between the portions of the one main body projection 83 and each of the main body projections 83, and the rear side of the opening 53 so as to straddle the opening 53 of the cover 50. It overhangs to the side. The main body projections 83 are arranged apart from each other. Thereby, each main body concave portion 82 is formed between the main body convex portions 83.
本体凸部83が配置される密度は、連結軸部44を基準とした表示本体41の指示部側の領域A2よりも、連結軸部44よりも反指示部側の領域A1にて、高く設定されている。例えば本実施形態では、指示部側の領域A2にて本体凸部83が45°の角度間隔で配置されているのに対して、反指示部側の領域A1にて本体凸部83が30°の角度間隔で配置されている。このようにすると、表示本体41における発光素子60及び受電回路部70により近い部位にてより表面積を増大させて、放熱の効率を高めると共に、指針40の重心を指示部側からより回転中心に近い位置に設定することができる。
The density at which the main body projections 83 are arranged is set higher in a region A1 on the side of the indication portion of the display main body 41 that is on the side opposite to the connection shaft portion 44 than the connection shaft portion 44 with reference to the connection shaft portion 44. Have been. For example, in the present embodiment, the main body protruding portions 83 are arranged at an angular interval of 45 ° in the region A2 on the pointing portion side, whereas the main body protruding portions 83 are arranged at 30 ° in the region A1 on the opposite pointing portion side. Are arranged at an angular interval of. In this way, the surface area is increased at a portion closer to the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit portion 70 in the display main body 41, the heat radiation efficiency is increased, and the center of gravity of the pointer 40 is closer to the rotation center from the pointing portion side. Can be set to position.

以上説明した第1実施形態の作用効果を以下に改めて説明する。 (Effects)
The operation and effect of the first embodiment described above will be described again below.
以上説明した第1実施形態の作用効果を以下に改めて説明する。 (Effects)
The operation and effect of the first embodiment described above will be described again below.
第1実施形態によると、表示部品としての指針40は、熱分散構造80を有している。熱分散構造80が、発光素子60又は受電回路部70の少なくとも一方で発生した熱を分散させている。したがって、表示本体41のうち、発光素子60及び受電回路部70に隣接する部位が局所的に高熱となることが抑制される。こうして高熱部位の発生が抑制される結果、表示本体41の変形ないし他部品(例えばシャフト部32)との間の緩みの発生も抑制することができる。故に、視認対象となり表示を行なう表示本体41の表示品位を、高い状態に維持可能とすることができる。
According to the first embodiment, the pointer 40 as a display component has the heat dispersion structure 80. The heat dispersing structure 80 disperses heat generated in at least one of the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70. Therefore, a portion of the display main body 41 adjacent to the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 is prevented from being locally heated. As a result of suppressing the generation of the high heat portion, it is possible to suppress the deformation of the display main body 41 and the generation of the looseness between the display main body 41 and another component (for example, the shaft portion 32). Therefore, it is possible to maintain the display quality of the display main body 41, which becomes a viewing target and performs display, in a high state.
また、第1実施形態によると、熱分散構造80として、表示本体41の表面において、本体凹部82及び本体凸部83を交互に並べた本体凹凸構造81が設けられている。このようにすると、表示本体41の表面積を増加させることができるので、表示本体41の熱を外部に効率的に逃がすことができる。したがって、表示本体41が高熱になることが抑制されるので、表示本体41の変形ないし他部品との間の緩みの発生も抑制することができる。
According to the first embodiment, as the heat dispersion structure 80, the main body concave / convex structure 81 in which the main body concave portions 82 and the main body convex portions 83 are alternately arranged on the surface of the display main body 41 is provided. By doing so, the surface area of the display main body 41 can be increased, so that the heat of the display main body 41 can be efficiently released to the outside. Therefore, since the display main body 41 is prevented from being heated to a high temperature, deformation of the display main body 41 or loosening between the display main body 41 and other components can be suppressed.
また、第1実施形態によると、本体凹凸構造81において複数設けられた本体凸部83は、導入部43と連結軸部44とを、梁状に接続すると共に、連結軸部44から放射状に伸びる壁状に形成されている。このように、壁状に形成された本体凸部83が導入部43と接続されて設けられたことにより、発光素子60からの熱が伝わり易い導入部43周辺の表面積を増加させて、表示本体41の熱を外部に効率的に逃がすことができる。
According to the first embodiment, the plurality of main body protrusions 83 provided in the main body uneven structure 81 connect the introduction portion 43 and the connection shaft portion 44 in a beam shape and extend radially from the connection shaft portion 44. It is formed in a wall shape. As described above, since the main body convex portion 83 formed in a wall shape is provided so as to be connected to the introduction portion 43, the surface area around the introduction portion 43 to which heat from the light emitting element 60 is easily transmitted is increased, and The heat of 41 can be efficiently released to the outside.
これと共に、本体凹部82が導入部43と連結軸部44を梁状に接続しているので、表示本体41が補強されて、変形し難くなる。さらに言及すると、複数の本体凹部82が連結軸部44から放射状に伸びて形成されているので、連結軸部44が熱膨張により変形し難い構造となっており、表示本体41とムーブメント30のシャフト部32と間の緩みの発生を抑制することができる。
(4) At the same time, since the main body concave portion 82 connects the introduction portion 43 and the connecting shaft portion 44 in a beam shape, the display main body 41 is reinforced and is hardly deformed. More specifically, since the plurality of main body concave portions 82 are formed to extend radially from the connecting shaft portion 44, the connecting shaft portion 44 has a structure that is not easily deformed by thermal expansion, and the display main body 41 and the shaft of the movement 30 are formed. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of looseness with the portion 32.
以上によれば、本体凹凸構造81が表面積増加による放熱の観点だけでなく、剛性の観点でも表示本体41を改良するので、表示本体41の変形ないし他部品との間の緩みの発生の抑制効果をより高めることができる。
According to the above, the main body uneven structure 81 improves the display main body 41 not only from the viewpoint of heat dissipation due to the increase in the surface area but also from the viewpoint of rigidity, so that the effect of suppressing the deformation of the display main body 41 or the occurrence of looseness with other components is suppressed. Can be further enhanced.
また、第1実施形態によると、発光素子60及び受電回路部70の重心位置は、連結軸部44を挟んで指示部42とは反対側に位置している。このような配置によれば、発光素子60及び受電回路部70を指示部42から遠ざけることによって、指示部42が局所的に高熱となることが抑制されるので、指示部42が曲がって指示位置が変更されてしまい、表示の正確性が低下することが抑制される。これと共に、指示部側に偏りがちな指針40の重心のバランスが改善されるので、指針40を安定的に駆動することができる。
According to the first embodiment, the position of the center of gravity of the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 is located on the opposite side of the connecting unit 44 from the indicating unit 42. According to such an arrangement, by keeping the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 away from the instruction unit 42, it is possible to prevent the instruction unit 42 from being locally heated to a high temperature. Is changed and the accuracy of the display is suppressed from being reduced. At the same time, the balance of the center of gravity of the pointer 40, which tends to be biased toward the indicator, is improved, so that the pointer 40 can be driven stably.
また、第1実施形態によると、本体凸部83の密度は、連結軸部44を基準とした指示部側よりも、反指示部側にて、高く設定されている。熱源としての発光素子60及び受電回路部70から近い位置での放熱性能を高めることによって、表示本体41のうち、発光素子60及び受電回路部70に隣接する部位が局所的に高熱となることが抑制される。これと共に、密度の高い本体凸部83によって、連結軸部44を挟んで指示部42とは反対側の重量が増加するので、指針40全体の重量バランスが改善されて、指針40を安定的に駆動することができる。以上により、表示品位を、高い状態に維持可能とすることができる。
According to the first embodiment, the density of the main body convex portion 83 is set to be higher on the side of the pointing portion opposite to the pointing portion with reference to the connecting shaft portion 44. By increasing the heat radiation performance at a position close to the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 as a heat source, a portion of the display main body 41 adjacent to the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 may be locally heated. Is suppressed. At the same time, the high-density main body convex portion 83 increases the weight on the opposite side of the pointing portion 42 with the connecting shaft portion 44 interposed therebetween, so that the weight balance of the entire pointer 40 is improved and the pointer 40 can be stably held. Can be driven. As described above, the display quality can be maintained at a high level.
また、第1実施形態によると、指針40は、発光素子60及び受電回路部70を覆い隠すカバー50をさらに有する。このようなカバー50により、指針40の見栄えを良好にすることができる。
According to the first embodiment, the pointer 40 further includes the cover 50 that covers the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70. With such a cover 50, the appearance of the pointer 40 can be improved.

As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the fourth embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. The fourth embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.
第4実施形態の指針440における熱分散構造480は、第3実施形態と同様に、受電回路部470に設けられている。
熱 The heat dissipating structure 480 of the indicator 440 of the fourth embodiment is provided in the power receiving circuit unit 470 as in the third embodiment.
本実施形態の受電回路部470は、二次コイル471aを含むコイル部471が基板472上に形成されている。本実施形態の基板472は、柔軟性を有するフレキシブル基板となっている。基板472は、外周輪郭が矩形状のコイル実装部472aと、当該コイル実装部472aから帯状に張り出して設けられた発光素子実装部472bと、を一体的に有している。
電 In the power receiving circuit section 470 of the present embodiment, the coil section 471 including the secondary coil 471a is formed on the substrate 472. The substrate 472 of the present embodiment is a flexible substrate having flexibility. The board 472 integrally includes a coil mounting portion 472a having a rectangular outer peripheral contour and a light emitting element mounting portion 472b provided to protrude in a band shape from the coil mounting portion 472a.
コイル実装部472aには、第3実施形態と同様に、熱分散構造480として、二次コイル471aが渦巻き状に拡がるプリントパターン構造481が設けられている。発光素子実装部472bには、発光素子460が実装され、コイル実装部472aから引き込まれた二次コイル471bの端子が当該発光素子460に対して電気的に接続されている。
(4) The coil mounting portion 472a is provided with a printed pattern structure 481 in which the secondary coil 471a spirally spreads, as the heat dispersing structure 480, as in the third embodiment. The light emitting element 460 is mounted on the light emitting element mounting section 472b, and the terminal of the secondary coil 471b drawn from the coil mounting section 472a is electrically connected to the light emitting element 460.
こうした基板472において、コイル実装部472aは、表示本体41の導入部43をカバー50の周方向に囲むように配置されている。すなわち、コイル実装部472aは、導入部43の表面に沿わせて湾曲し、導入部43とカバー50の側面部52との間の隙間に配置されている。発光素子実装部472bは、カバー50の開口部53に配置され、発光素子460は、発光素子460よりも視認側の導入面43aへ向けて光を発する。
に お い て In such a substrate 472, the coil mounting portion 472a is disposed so as to surround the introduction portion 43 of the display main body 41 in the circumferential direction of the cover 50. That is, the coil mounting portion 472 a is curved along the surface of the introduction portion 43 and is disposed in a gap between the introduction portion 43 and the side surface portion 52 of the cover 50. The light emitting element mounting part 472b is disposed in the opening 53 of the cover 50, and the light emitting element 460 emits light toward the introduction surface 43a on the viewing side of the light emitting element 460.
以上説明した第4実施形態によると、基板472は、表示本体41の表面に沿わせて湾曲したフレキシブル基板となっている。このようにすると、表示本体41の表面の広い範囲に熱を分散して与えることができるので、表示本体41が基板472上の受電回路部70に隣接していても、表示本体41が局所的に高熱となることを、抑制することができる。
According to the fourth embodiment described above, the substrate 472 is a flexible substrate that is curved along the surface of the display main body 41. With this configuration, heat can be distributed and applied to a wide area of the surface of the display main body 41. Therefore, even if the display main body 41 is adjacent to the power receiving circuit unit 70 on the substrate 472, the display main body 41 is locally localized. High heat can be suppressed.

図12,13に示すように、第5実施形態は第1実施形態の変形例である。第5実施形態について、第1実施形態とは異なる点を中心に説明する。 (Fifth embodiment)
As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the fifth embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. The fifth embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.
図12,13に示すように、第5実施形態は第1実施形態の変形例である。第5実施形態について、第1実施形態とは異なる点を中心に説明する。 (Fifth embodiment)
As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the fifth embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. The fifth embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.
第5実施形態の指針540における熱分散構造580は、受電回路部570及びカバー550に設けられている。具体的に、熱分散構造580は、カバー550の表面のうち天面部551において視認側を向く視認側部位551aに設けられたカバー凹凸構造581となっている。
熱 The heat distribution structure 580 of the pointer 540 of the fifth embodiment is provided on the power receiving circuit unit 570 and the cover 550. Specifically, the heat dispersing structure 580 is a cover uneven structure 581 provided on the viewing side portion 551a facing the viewing side on the top surface 551 of the surface of the cover 550.
このカバー凹凸構造581は、第2実施形態のような細線により凹凸を設けたヘアライン構造であるが、ヘアライン構造において、電気を導通する細線を渦巻状に配置することにより、受電回路部570の二次コイル571aが形成されている。
The cover uneven structure 581 is a hairline structure in which unevenness is provided by a thin wire as in the second embodiment. In the hairline structure, a thin wire that conducts electricity is arranged in a spiral shape, so that the power receiving circuit unit 570 is formed in a spiral shape. The next coil 571a is formed.
そして、天面部551には、発光素子560が埋め込まれた貫通穴551bが設けられており、二次コイル571aと発光素子560とが電気的に接続されている。発光素子560、導入面43a及び反射面43bの位置関係は、第3実施形態と同様となっている。
{Circle around (5)} The top surface 551 is provided with a through hole 551b in which the light emitting element 560 is embedded, and the secondary coil 571a and the light emitting element 560 are electrically connected. The positional relationship among the light emitting element 560, the introduction surface 43a, and the reflection surface 43b is the same as in the third embodiment.
以上説明した第5実施形態によると、受電回路部570は、カバー550の表面のうち視認側部位551aにおいて、金属線を渦巻状に配置したヘアライン構造状に形成されているコイル571aを有する。このようにすると、コイル571aをカバー550の外部へ露出させても、カバー550の見栄えが低下するどころか、カバー50がヘアライン模様に加飾されるため、見栄えは向上する。そして、熱源であるコイル571aがカバー50の外側に露出するので、表示本体41への熱の影響を低下させることができる。さらには、コイル571aがカバー凹凸構造581を構成して、カバー50の表面積を増大させているので、放熱性が高まる。
According to the fifth embodiment described above, the power receiving circuit section 570 has the coil 571a formed in a hairline structure in which metal wires are arranged in a spiral shape on the viewing side portion 551a of the surface of the cover 550. By doing so, even if the coil 571a is exposed to the outside of the cover 550, the appearance of the cover 550 is not only reduced but also decorated with a hairline pattern, so that the appearance is improved. Since the coil 571a, which is a heat source, is exposed outside the cover 50, the influence of heat on the display main body 41 can be reduced. Furthermore, since the coil 571a forms the cover uneven structure 581 and increases the surface area of the cover 50, heat dissipation is improved.

The translucent base material 682 in the embedded structure 681 is integrally formed with the display main body 41 by being bonded or bonded to the introduction portion 43 and the connection shaft portion 44 of the display main body 41.
透光性基材682としては、例えばシリコン樹脂等の光学用透明樹脂(Optically Clear Resin、以下OCR)を採用することができる。
As the light-transmitting base material 682, an optically clear resin (hereinafter, referred to as OCR) such as a silicon resin can be employed.
OCRを用いた指針640の製造方法としては、発光素子60及び受電回路部70を定位置に(発光素子60を導入面43aと対向させるように)保持し、発光素子60及び受電回路部70の周囲に液状のOCRを流し込んで硬化させる。こうした方法により、透光性基材682の内部に発光素子60及び受電回路部70が封入され、かつ、透光性基材682を表示本体41に容易に一体化させることができる。流し込むOCRの領域又は量を調整することにより、指針640の重量バランスを最適化することができる。
As a method of manufacturing the pointer 640 using the OCR, the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 are held in a fixed position (so that the light emitting element 60 faces the introduction surface 43a), and the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 A liquid OCR is poured around and cured. With such a method, the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 are sealed inside the light transmitting base material 682, and the light transmitting base material 682 can be easily integrated with the display main body 41. By adjusting the area or amount of OCR to be poured, the weight balance of the pointer 640 can be optimized.
なお、図14において、実線の矢印は、発光素子60から発せられた光の進み方を示し、破線の矢印は、発光素子60及び受電回路部70にて発生した熱が、表示本体41の各所へ分散される様子を示している。
In FIG. 14, solid arrows indicate how light emitted from the light-emitting element 60 travels, and broken-line arrows indicate heat generated in the light-emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 at various points in the display main body 41. FIG.
以上説明した第6実施形態によると、熱分散構造680として、発光素子60及び受電回路部70が透光性基材682によって埋設された埋設構造681が設けられている。このようにすると、発光素子60及び受電回路部70で発生した熱が透光性基材682全体にすぐに伝熱していくので、表示本体41において発光素子60及び受電回路部70に隣接した部位だけが局所的に高熱になることを抑制することができる。
According to the sixth embodiment described above, the buried structure 681 in which the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 are buried by the translucent base material 682 is provided as the heat dispersion structure 680. In this case, since the heat generated in the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 is immediately transmitted to the entire light transmitting base material 682, the portion of the display body 41 adjacent to the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 Alone can suppress a local increase in heat.
また、第6実施形態によると、透光性基材682は、表示本体41と一体的に形成されている。このようにすると、発光素子60及び受電回路部70で発生した熱が透光性基材682全体にすぐに伝熱し、さらに透光性基材682の熱が透光性基材682から表示本体41の各箇所へ分散されていく。故に、表示本体41において発光素子60及び受電回路部70に隣接した部位だけが局所的に高熱になることを抑制することができる。
According to the sixth embodiment, the translucent substrate 682 is formed integrally with the display main body 41. In this way, the heat generated in the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70 is immediately transmitted to the entire light transmitting base material 682, and the heat of the light transmitting base material 682 is further transferred from the light transmitting base material 682 to the display body. 41 are distributed to each part. Therefore, it is possible to suppress local high heat only in the portion of the display main body 41 adjacent to the light emitting element 60 and the power receiving circuit unit 70.
(第7実施形態)
図15~17に示すように、第7実施形態は第1実施形態の変形例である。第7実施形態について、第1実施形態とは異なる点を中心に説明する。 (Seventh embodiment)
As shown in FIGS. 15 to 17, the seventh embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. The seventh embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.
図15~17に示すように、第7実施形態は第1実施形態の変形例である。第7実施形態について、第1実施形態とは異なる点を中心に説明する。 (Seventh embodiment)
As shown in FIGS. 15 to 17, the seventh embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment. The seventh embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.
第7実施形態では、指針740は、複数の発光素子760,761を有している。複数の発光素子760,761には、第1~6実施形態のような可視光を発する可視光発光素子760、及び不可視光を発する不可視光発光素子761が含まれている。本実施形態では、可視光発光素子760と不可視光発光素子761とがそれぞれ1つずつ設けられている。
で は In the seventh embodiment, the pointer 740 has a plurality of light emitting elements 760 and 761. The plurality of light emitting elements 760 and 761 include the visible light emitting element 760 that emits visible light and the invisible light emitting element 761 that emits invisible light as in the first to sixth embodiments. In this embodiment, one visible light emitting element 760 and one invisible light emitting element 761 are provided.
一方の可視光発光素子761から発せられた可視光は、導入部743の導入面743aから表示本体741の内部へ導入され、反射面743bにより指示部742へ向けて反射される。
可視 Visible light emitted from one visible light emitting element 761 is introduced into the inside of the display main body 741 from the introduction surface 743a of the introduction unit 743, and is reflected toward the pointing unit 742 by the reflection surface 743b.
他方、表示本体741の導入部743において、反射面743bに対して表示板10の延設方向にずれた部位には、視認側から背面側に貫通する円筒穴状の収容穴743cが設けられている。不可視光発光素子761は、この収容穴743cに収容され、より詳細には係止爪等によって係止されることで、収容穴743c内に固定されている。
On the other hand, in the introduction portion 743 of the display main body 741, a cylindrical hole-shaped accommodation hole 743 c penetrating from the viewing side to the back side is provided at a position shifted from the reflection surface 743 b in the direction in which the display plate 10 extends. I have. The invisible light emitting element 761 is housed in the housing hole 743c, and more specifically, is locked in the housing hole 743c by being locked by a locking claw or the like.
本実施形態の不可視光発光素子761は、装置視認者としての乗員を照明する近赤外光を、視認側に発するようになっている。この近赤外光による乗員の照明は、ドライバステータスモニタ(Driver Status Monitor、DSM)に利用されている。ドライバステータスモニタは、乗員の顔等を撮影し、その撮影画像を解析処理することで、乗員の居眠りやわき見等を監視する。
不 The invisible light emitting element 761 of the present embodiment emits near-infrared light illuminating an occupant as a device viewer to the viewer side. The illumination of the occupant by the near-infrared light is used for a driver status monitor (Driver Status Monitor, DSM). The driver status monitor monitors the occupant's falling asleep, looking aside, and the like, by photographing the occupant's face and the like and analyzing the photographed image.
不可視光発光素子761からの赤外光を視認側へ透過させるため、第7実施形態のカバー750において天面部751は、近赤外光を透過するように構成されている。具体的に、天面部751は、可視光を遮光し、かつ、近赤外光を透過する合成樹脂により形成されていてもよく、可視光及び近赤外光を透過する合成樹脂による基材の表面に、可視光を遮光し、かつ、近赤外光を透過する塗料を塗装することにより形成されていてもよい。
In order to transmit the infrared light from the invisible light emitting element 761 to the viewing side, the top surface 751 of the cover 750 of the seventh embodiment is configured to transmit near-infrared light. Specifically, the top surface portion 751 may be formed of a synthetic resin that blocks visible light and transmits near-infrared light, and may be formed of a synthetic resin that transmits visible light and near-infrared light. The surface may be formed by applying a paint that blocks visible light and transmits near-infrared light.
図16,17のカバー750において天面部751は、その表面を平面状に形成した平板状を呈している。このため、図16,17の例では、表示部品としての指針740において、熱分散構造が設けられていない。
天 In the cover 750 of FIGS. 16 and 17, the top surface portion 751 has a flat plate shape whose surface is formed in a flat shape. For this reason, in the examples of FIGS. 16 and 17, the indicator 740 as a display component does not have a heat dispersion structure.
ただし、図18,19の例のように、天面部751において視認側を向く視認側部位751aにカバー凹凸構造781を配置することで、熱分散構造780が設けられていてもよい。具体的に図18,19の例では、カバー凹凸構造781がフレネルレンズ状に形成されることで、天面部751を透過する近赤外光が集光されて、効率よく乗員を照明することができる。
However, as in the examples of FIGS. 18 and 19, the heat dispersing structure 780 may be provided by disposing the cover uneven structure 781 on the viewing side portion 751a facing the viewing side on the top surface portion 751. Specifically, in the examples of FIGS. 18 and 19, the cover uneven structure 781 is formed in a Fresnel lens shape, so that near-infrared light transmitted through the top surface portion 751 is condensed, and the occupant can be efficiently illuminated. it can.
以上説明した第7実施形態によると、表示部品としての指針740において、可視光発光素子760と不可視光発光素子761という、複数系統の発光素子が設けられている。ここで、可視光発光素子760は、可視光を発光して表示本体41を照明するので、表示本体41が移動した位置に応じた表示を行なう際に表示本体41の視認性が高まる。したがって、指針740の表示品位が高まる。これと共に、不可視光発光素子761が不可視光を発光するので、この不可視光を利用して、指針740に追加の機能を付加することができる。
According to the seventh embodiment described above, a plurality of light emitting elements of a visible light emitting element 760 and an invisible light emitting element 761 are provided in the indicator 740 as a display component. Here, since the visible light emitting element 760 emits visible light to illuminate the display main body 41, the visibility of the display main body 41 is improved when performing display according to the position where the display main body 41 has moved. Therefore, the display quality of the pointer 740 is improved. At the same time, since the invisible light emitting element 761 emits invisible light, an additional function can be added to the pointer 740 by using the invisible light.
また、第7実施形態によると、不可視光発光素子761は、不可視光として、装置視認者を照明する近赤外光を発する。このように車両用表示装置100から装置視認者を近赤外光で照明すると、装置視認者に気付かれずに正面を照明することが可能となるので、例えばドライバステータスモニタにおいて装置視認者を監視する場合に、当該装置視認者の状態をより精度よく把握可能となる。
According to the seventh embodiment, the invisible light emitting element 761 emits near-infrared light that illuminates the viewer of the apparatus as invisible light. By illuminating the device viewer with near-infrared light from the vehicle display device 100 in this way, it becomes possible to illuminate the front without being noticed by the device viewer, so that the device viewer is monitored by, for example, a driver status monitor. In this case, the state of the device viewer can be grasped more accurately.
(第8実施形態)
図20=23に示すように、第8実施形態は第7実施形態の変形例である。第8実施形態について、第1実施形態とは異なる点を中心に説明する。 (Eighth embodiment)
As shown in FIG. 20 = 23, the eighth embodiment is a modification of the seventh embodiment. The eighth embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.
図20=23に示すように、第8実施形態は第7実施形態の変形例である。第8実施形態について、第1実施形態とは異なる点を中心に説明する。 (Eighth embodiment)
As shown in FIG. 20 = 23, the eighth embodiment is a modification of the seventh embodiment. The eighth embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.
第8実施形態でも、第7実施形態と同様に、可視光発光素子860と不可視光発光素子861とがそれぞれ1つずつ設けられているが、カバー50は、第1実施形態と同様である。
In the eighth embodiment, as in the seventh embodiment, one visible light emitting element 860 and one invisible light emitting element 861 are provided, but the cover 50 is the same as that in the first embodiment.
第8実施形態の不可視光発光素子861は、不可視光として紫外光を発光するようになっている。
The invisible light emitting element 861 of the eighth embodiment emits ultraviolet light as invisible light.
第8実施形態の表示本体841において導入部843は、指示部842から2枝に分岐して伸びるように、2つの反射面846a,846bを有している。反射面846a,846bの分岐方向DDa,DDbは、指示部842の延伸方向EDとはそれぞれ鈍角を成している。反射面846aの分岐方向DDaと反射面846bの分岐方向DDbとは、互いに鋭角をなしている。
に お い て In the display body 841 of the eighth embodiment, the introduction portion 843 has two reflection surfaces 846a and 846b so as to extend from the indication portion 842 into two branches. The branching directions DDa, DDb of the reflecting surfaces 846a, 846b form an obtuse angle with the extending direction ED of the pointing portion 842, respectively. The branch direction DDa of the reflection surface 846a and the branch direction DDb of the reflection surface 846b form an acute angle with each other.
反射面846aは、導入面847aを挟んで可視光発光素子860と対向している。反射面846bは、導入面847bを挟んで不可視光発光素子861と対向している。本実施形態の導入面847a,847bは、それぞれ、表示板10の沿設方向に沿った平面状をなしている。反射面846aが導入面847aに対してなす傾斜角θaは、反射面846bが導入面847bに対してなす傾斜角θbと異なっている。具体的に、傾斜角θaは、傾斜角θbよりも大きな角度となっている。
The reflection surface 846a faces the visible light emitting element 860 with the introduction surface 847a interposed therebetween. The reflection surface 846b faces the invisible light emitting element 861 with the introduction surface 847b interposed therebetween. The introduction surfaces 847a and 847b of the present embodiment each have a planar shape along the direction in which the display panel 10 extends. The inclination angle θa formed by the reflection surface 846a with respect to the introduction surface 847a is different from the inclination angle θb formed by the reflection surface 846b with respect to the introduction surface 847b. Specifically, the inclination angle θa is larger than the inclination angle θb.
可視光発光素子860が発した可視光は、反射面846aに反射されることによって指示部842へ向かうように方向転換され、不可視光発光素子861が発した紫外光は、反射面846bに反射されることによって指示部842へ向かうように方向転換される。ただし、上述の傾斜角θa,θbの差によって、可視光と紫外光とで指示部842の外部への放出の傾向が異なる。
The visible light emitted by the visible light emitting element 860 is reflected by the reflecting surface 846a and is turned to the direction of the indicator 842, and the ultraviolet light emitted by the invisible light emitting element 861 is reflected by the reflecting surface 846b. Thus, the direction is changed so as to be directed to the instruction unit 842. However, the tendency of the visible light and the ultraviolet light to be emitted to the outside of the indicator 842 differs depending on the difference between the inclination angles θa and θb described above.
具体的に、指示部842の内部を複数回反射されながら進む可視光は、紫外光と比較して指示部842の延伸方向EDに対して大きな角度をなす方向に進む割合が多いことで、指示部842の様々な部位から外部へと放射される。一方、紫外光は、可視光と比較して指示部842の延伸方向EDに対して小さな角度をなす方向に進む割合が多いことで、指示部842の先端部842bから、指示部842の外部へと、指示部842の延長線に沿うような方向に放出される。
Specifically, the visible light that travels while being reflected a plurality of times inside the indicator 842 more frequently travels in a direction that forms a larger angle with respect to the stretching direction ED of the indicator 842 than the ultraviolet light. Radiation is emitted from various portions of the portion 842 to the outside. On the other hand, the ratio of the ultraviolet light traveling in a direction forming a small angle with respect to the extending direction ED of the indicator 842 is greater than that of the visible light, so Is emitted in a direction along the extension of the indicating section 842.
第8実施形態では、例えば指針840の回転中心を基準として指針840及び表示板10の指標11よりも外周側に、当該回転中心と中心を合わせて配置された円環状の加飾リング816が設けられている(図23参照)。加飾リング816は、指示部842の先端部842bと対向する内周壁部816aを有している。内周壁部816aの表面には、紫外線を受光して可視光を発光する発光物質が含まれた発光塗料が塗装されることによって、内周壁部816aは、発光部として機能する。特に本実施形態の発光物質は、蛍光現象を生じさせる蛍光物質である。
In the eighth embodiment, for example, an annular decorative ring 816 is provided on the outer peripheral side of the pointer 840 and the indicator 11 of the display panel 10 with the rotation center of the pointer 840 as a reference. (See FIG. 23). The decorating ring 816 has an inner peripheral wall 816a that faces the tip 842b of the indicator 842. The surface of the inner peripheral wall 816a is coated with a luminescent paint containing a luminescent substance that receives ultraviolet light and emits visible light, so that the inner peripheral wall 816a functions as a light emitting unit. In particular, the luminescent substance of the present embodiment is a fluorescent substance that causes a fluorescent phenomenon.
すなわち、不可視光発光素子861が発した紫外光が、指示部842の先端部842bから内周壁部816aに照射されることによって、発光物質が可視光を発光することにより、内周壁部816aにおける指示部842の延長線上部位816bが発光する。この発光により、指針840の指示位置及び指示位置に応じた情報の読み取りが容易となる。
That is, the ultraviolet light emitted from the invisible light emitting element 861 is irradiated from the tip 842b of the indicator 842 to the inner peripheral wall 816a, so that the luminescent material emits visible light.
