Description

Automobile-used integrated control interface and module
Technical field
The present invention is about a kind of automobile-used integrated control interface and module, especially in regard to a kind of automobile-used integrated control interface and module that is arranged at the direction-control apparatus of vehicle.
Background technology
Along with standard of living and science and technology promote, the All-In-One notion in the 3C field and automobile gradually be subjected to already to pay attention to and used, and the multi-functional integrated control interface specific implementation of this notion especially, it can make automobile-used system export into operation-interface and obtain integrating and unlikely too numerous and diverse.Please be simultaneously with reference to Figure 1A and Figure 1B, it is respectively the schematic appearance of existing automobile-used system control interface one embodiment and non-productive operation interface thereof.As shown in the figure, existing automobile-used system control interface 12 is that shown relevant non-productive operation interface 15 is reached automobile-used system combination control on the large-scale control handle 13 of center armrest 11 tops by being arranged on vehicle front stall seat 10 or side (this embodiment is in the top) and the Vehicular instrument panel 14.Wherein, integrated communication, navigation, amusement, air-conditioning, set vehicle, operating environment is set, the menu project of function such as operation instructions and customer service is all controlled by above-mentioned knob 13, and existing automobile-used system control interface 12 also can be provided with various buttons 16 to select other function, but this automobile-used system utilizes directive knob 13 to operate diversified functional menu or the system cursor of doing moves, a bit complicated and inconvenient in the operation, and because comprise knob 13 and be arranged on handrail 11, when using, the vehicle drive people must cause inconvenience and degree of safety on using when driving to reduce on right hand departure direction dish.
On the other hand, except above-mentioned reaching with mechanical knob imported and controls this prior art of purpose, directionkeys by a telepilot or numerical key are also arranged at present controlling the practice of automobile-used system, and also can arrange in pairs or groups instrument panel or LCD screen show the Premium Features menu.See also Fig. 2, the schematic appearance of its existing automobile-used another embodiment of system control interface.As shown in the figure, the automobile-used system control interface 20 of this embodiment is a telepilot, and is provided with a plurality of first buttons 21 (for example directionkeys), a plurality of second button 22 (for example numerical key), a LCD screen 23 and tracing point sensing element (PointingStick; PST) 24.Wherein, LCD screen 23 can only be a display device, also can be that touch is exported into element, and vehicle driver or passenger can use these automobile-used system control interface 20 each items to control automobile-used system.
Yet, various automobile-used system control interface passes through the directionkeys of a telepilot mostly at present, point to element or independently mechanical knob is reached input and automobile-used system control purpose, and above-mentioned directionkeys generally all be five to key or nine to key, has the restricted latent defect of mechanical type element durability and movable direction, and can only do simple menu moves, in the face of the existing multimedia application that grows with each passing day, especially locate and pen travel, often allow the operator feel considerably inconvenient and deposited demand, and relatively comparatively require great effort with tired easily.In addition, some automobile-used integrated telepilot can add that Trackpad comes the direction-pointing function of emulation mouse, the driver must remove bearing circle significantly with hand, sight line and notice in vehicle is advanced, then concentrate on armrest or the instrument panel, not only run counter to ergonomics and the intuitive operation demand of ignoring people, have more potential driving danger.Moreover, the small-sized LCD screen of some vehicle is only as DVD playing back and the output unit of watching digital television program, be not fully utilized and integrate, seem and be not inconsistent economic benefit, if but dual-purpose is with the usefulness as the functional menu demonstration, perhaps export into element (for example Trackpad) to replace it by a touch that has Presentation Function concurrently, believe more can the every cost of economization and in-vehicle apparatus take up room.
Summary of the invention
Fundamental purpose of the present invention provides and is arranged at the direction of traffic control device and comprises a touch at least and export automobile-used integrated control interface and module into element, and it is more directly perceived and make things convenient for to make that the vehicle driver controls automobile-used system and menu function wherein.
In order to achieve the above object, automobile-used integrated control interface of the present invention is arranged at the direction-control apparatus of vehicle and comprises a touch at least and export into element, and in order to transmitting-receiving vehicle driver's service request.Wherein, if automobile-used integrated control interface is in order to emulation one keyboard type interface, the input interface with handwriting identification and one first display device, then service request comprises output and goes into civilian numeral and figure; Point to element with emulation one a software and hardware mouse-type interface and a telechiric device if automobile-used integrated control interface comprises a tracing point that is arranged on the same direction-control apparatus again, then service request also can comprise choose the service menu, choose address list, the operation navigation is with cartographic information and control scroll bar and cursor.Also have, automobile-used integrated control interface of the present invention also can be electrically connected a control module and require and the corresponding service of execution with analysis service.In addition, automobile-used integrated control interface of the present invention also can be electrically connected one second display device to show the graphical non-productive operation interface that service request is required and the mode of operation of integrated control interface.In addition, automobile-used integrated control interface of the present invention also can comprise a radio receiving transmitting module, is electrically connected aforementioned control module and with the requirement of wireless mode transmitting-receiving respective services.
Automobile-used integration control module of the present invention is arranged at a direction-control apparatus of vehicle, comprises a touch and exports into element and a sensing and controller module.Wherein, touch is exported into element and is carried out the touch-control input in order to the vehicle driver to be provided, and sensing and controller module are imported the control signal of formation in order to detect touch-control, calculate the corresponding coordinate of touch-control input and carried out corresponding functional mode according to coordinate.
In sum, because the present invention exports element with indicator device, touch and combination is arranged on the bearing circle, therefore driving does not need hand and sight line are removed bearing circle significantly, as long as can control functions such as the menu selection of automobile-used system and cursor move easily by the finger (for example thumb) of part number, not only improve operation convenient degree and driving safety degree, and also can take into account many considering such as reduction that in-vehicle apparatus takes up room and setting element cost.
