There is provided a vehicle display device capable of simplifying a configuration for a passenger. A ring member is provided to be closer to the front side (opposite to the passenger) than a half mirror, and thus the configuration for the passenger can be further simplified than the half mirror, thereby achieving a simple appearance. The ring member is visually confirmed through the half mirror thereby to display the ring member and an image in combination like a configuration in which a decorative member is provided to be closer to the passenger than the display as conventionally.

An assembly includes a light guide having a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end has a light-emitting diode package coupled thereto. The assembly may include another light guide, also having a proximal end and a distal end, with a light-emitting diode package coupled to the proximal end. A light housing may be included that defines a cavity therein, wherein at least a portion of the first and second light guides including the distal ends are disposed in the cavity. Further, a dial face may be included that is disposed adjacent to the first and second light guides and the light housing, wherein each of the first and second light guides are configured to illuminate the dial face. In some variations, flexible printed circuit boards are attached to and electrically connected with the light-emitting diode packages.

A display apparatus is disclosed, which includes a display unit, an opening member, a light source, a light transmission member, and a buffer having a buffer main portion and a light block portion. The buffer main portion is held between the display unit and the light transmission member. The light block portion protrudes from the buffer main portion along an opposing surface of the light transmission member opposing the display unit, and covers a reached region of the opposing surface to which a direct light from the light source toward an opening of the opening member reaches.

A light-conducting apparatus includes a light source, a light-conducting member and a light-reflecting structure. The light-conducting member includes a ring-shaped portion, a light-receiving surface and a radially outwardly bulged portion. The ring-shaped portion extends continuously over an entire circumference of the ring-shaped portion in a circumferential direction of the ring-shaped portion. The light-receiving surface causes light from the light source to enter the light-conducting member through the light-receiving surface. The radially outwardly bulged portion is bulged radially outwardly from the ring-shaped portion and causes the light having entered the light-conducting member through the light-receiving surface to enter the ring-shaped portion in one direction in the circumferential direction of the ring-shaped portion. The light-reflecting structure reflects a portion of the light having entered the light-conducting member through the light-receiving surface and causes the reflected light to enter the ring-shaped portion in a direction opposite to the one direction in the circumferential direction of the ring-shaped portion.

A dashboard for a road vehicle; the dashboard having: a digital screen; and an analogue instrument, which is provided with a circular support element and a pointer that moves inside the support element; the analogue instrument can be arranged in an operating position, in which the analogue instrument overlaps the digital screen so that the support element of the analogue instrument covers a corresponding part of said digital screen; and the support element of the analogue instrument is opaque and has a plurality of through openings, through which the light generated by the underlying digital screen can come out.

A display device is for displaying a virtual image in front of a driver of a vehicle. The display device includes a detecting unit that receives light surrounding the vehicle, and detects a brightness of the received light; a restricting unit that restricts an angle of the received light; a correcting unit that adjusts a luminance of a display image, according to the detected brightness of the light; and a displaying unit that superimposes and displays the display image on a field of vision of the driver as the virtual image, based on the adjusted luminance. The restricting unit includes two opening restricting elements arranged on a front side of the detecting unit, such that an angle 2 at which the detecting unit receives the light is restricted according to an angle 1 formed by light beams directed from the virtual image toward eyes of the driver.

An instrumentation gauge for a vehicle includes a single piece light guide divided into multiple sections by an opaque light guide insert. The single piece light guide includes at least one telltale graphic printed on a surface of the light guide in each of the light guide sections. When light is communicated into a given section of the light guide, the light scatters on the telltale graphic causing the graphic to be illuminated and distinguishable from a same or similar colored background.

An LED indicating device, in particular for a vehicle instrument cluster, has a plate provided with at least one light permeable portion adapted to be illuminated by a plurality of LED sources arranged in a position spaced apart from such a rear surface of such a light permeable portion; the device has a body which is arranged between the LED sources and the rear surface of the light permeable portion and has a first surface facing the LED sources and a second surface facing the rear surface; the body consists of a matrix made of a light impermeable material and of a plurality of light permeable elements, which are embedded in the matrix in positions spaced apart from one another and continuously extend from the first surface to the second surface.

An information display system includes a meter panel unit for a work vehicle, and a controller configured or programmed to control the meter panel unit. The meter panel unit includes a meter portion including a first analog meter and a second analog meter each including a pointer, and a display between the first and second analog meters, a wall surface provided on a display surface side of the meter portion to surround the first and second analog meters and the display, a transparent cover opposite a display surface of the meter portion, and arc-shaped indicators positioned around sweep ranges of the respective pointers. Each of the arc-shaped indicators includes at least one light emitting region with a shape of an arc. The controller is configured or programmed to cause the display to display a curved line-shaped image on an extension line of the arc.
