A vehicle structure includes an instrument panel, an in-vehicle device projecting toward a vehicle-upper side with respect to an upper surface of the instrument panel, and a cover panel that covers the in-vehicle device to expose a front surface of the in-vehicle device to a vehicle cabin. The cover panel includes an upper panel portion facing at least an upper part of a back surface of the in-vehicle device, and a lower panel portion facing at least a lower part of the back surface of the in-vehicle device and connected to the upper panel portion. The in-vehicle device includes a terminal provided on the back surface and configured such that a connector of a harness is connectable to the terminal, and a regulation member configured to regulate a position of the harness to a vehicle-lower side with respect to the terminal when the connector is connected to the terminal.

A vehicle display assembly includes a display configured to graphically depict information. A printed circuit board (PCB) is in communication with the display. A carrier is clamped between the display and PCB to form an instrument cluster assembly. The carrier includes cooling fins.

The display device (12) for a vehicle is provided with a display (18) having a display surface (20) on a front side and having a rear side facing away from the latter and a cover screen (14) arranged in front of the display surface (20). Furthermore, the display device (12) has a decorative frame (16) which is connected to the edge of the cover screen (14) and protrudes on all sides over the edge of the display (18), and a rear-side housing shell (17) which has a rear wall (36) with an edge web (38) rising from the latter. The rear wall (36) of the housing shell (17) is arranged at a distance from the rear side of the display (18), wherein the edge web (38) of the housing shell (17) is connected to the decorative frame (16) by means of an adhesive.

The invention is a robust lensless instrument cluster configured for installation in a vehicle. The instrument cluster comprises an outer case, a PCB and lighting structure, an inner frame, an optical bonding assembly, halo lighting portions, a seamless display comprising tell-tale indicators and gauges, and an outer visor. The instrument cluster further comprises a plurality of LEDs for compartmentalized and indirect lighting of the tell-tale indicators on the seamless display and the halo lighting portions around the edges of the seamless display. Because the instrument cluster is lensless and otherwise exposed to the environment, it comprises a seal system to prevent the ingress of water and dust into the interior components. The seal system can also eliminate the risk of mura in the optical bonding assembly.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle display apparatus including: a display case; an arm plate elastically coupled to the display case; and a solenoid module, wherein the solenoid module includes: a moving core formed in a rod shape, and having both ends fixed to the arm plate; and a base core being elastically coupled to the display case, and having a coil formed therein which is wound in one direction to surround at least a portion of the moving core.

An electronic device includes a display panel including a display surface on a front; a front panel surrounding the display panel; a circuit board that is disposed on a front side of a lower portion of the display panel and housed in the front panel; and a holder provided between the front of the display panel and a back of the circuit board. The holder includes a plurality of grooves each continuously extending in an up-down direction on a back of the holder facing the front of the display panel. The plurality of grooves are formed so as to be connected to each other. The front panel is formed with a through hole facing lower ends of the grooves.

A unit chassis of an operation unit is fixed to a coupling support portion provided at a support member. A front contact portion is formed at a fixing piece provided at the coupling support portion, and a front restriction portion formed at a right plate portion of the support member and the front contact portion face each other to be spaced apart by a distance in the front-rear direction (Z1-Z2 direction). When the operation unit is pulled toward the near side (Z1 direction), the front contact portion comes into contact with the front restriction portion and restricts a movement of the operation unit.

An automotive display module can include a mounting bracket, a display panel, a cover substrate, and a frame member. The mounting bracket can be securable to a component of an automobile. The display panel can be coupled to the mounting bracket and the frame member can be connected to a back side of the cover substrate.

The disclosure relates to vacuum forming methods, apparatuses and resulting displays that represent improvements in various key areas. The methods, for example, greatly improve manufacturing throughput through reduced curing times. The methods further facilitate improved control of glass shape to a targeted shape and improved control of bond line thickness, which result in improved survivability and long-term reliability, for example.

The operating device for a vehicle is provided with a housing having a front face with a receiving opening being delimited by an opening edge, and having a rear wall, and with an operating element being arranged in the receiving opening at a distance from the opening edge thereof and having an operating surface, said operating element having a front face provided with the operating surface, a rear face, and a delimiting edge region. The operating device further comprises a holding element having a bottom wall and support parts which protrude from the bottom wall and end below the delimiting edge region of the operating element and are mechanically coupled to the operating element in the delimiting edge region. The bottom wall of the holding element has a central region which is spaced from the support parts and within which the bottom wall of the holding element is supported against the rear wall of the housing. A manual actuation of the operating element is detected by multiple actuation sensors which are arranged between the bottom wall of the holding element and the rear wall of the housing within the surrounding region that surrounds the central region of the bottom wall of the holding element and is arranged at a distance from the rear wall of the housing. An evaluation unit receives the signals from the actuation sensors and evaluates said signals for the purpose of detecting a manual actuation of the operating element performed with a predefinable minimum pressing force.
