A cluster information output apparatus for a vehicle may include: a plurality of peripheral control devices having a function of displaying cluster information; a storage unit configured to store the cluster information and priorities for the plurality of peripheral control devices; and a control unit configured to determine operation states for the plurality of peripheral control devices when an error occurs in an operation state sensed from a cluster, and output the cluster information.

A housing that houses a display panel includes a first wall and a second wall. A protrusion is formed on the first wall. A through hole is formed in the second wall. The protrusion passes through the through hole. A tip of the protrusion that has been passed through the through hole is expanded to fasten the first wall to the second wall. A clearance between the protrusion and the through hole is divided into a first part and a second part. The first and second parts are unequally allocated so that when a force from a front side to a back side of the display panel is applied to the first wall/second wall, the first wall/second wall is suppressed from being displaced relative to the second wall/first wall.

To provide a vehicle information transmitting device capable of transmitting information associated with danger at a periphery of the own vehicle in a manner intuitively understandable by the driver. In the present embodiment, when a dangerous direction is the left or the right, a display position of an own vehicle state display figure is changed from a display position in an initial state to a display position on the same side as the dangerous direction. If the dangerous direction is on the front, the display position of the own vehicle state display figure is changed from the display position in the initial state to a display position on an upper side. When a dangerous target is detected, a display area of the own vehicle state display figure is changed to a display area greater than the display area in the initial state.

A display assembly for a vehicle may include: a back cover constituting the body of the display assembly, and fixed to an instrument panel; an LCD module disposed at the front of the back cover; and a coupling member disposed between the back cover and the LCD module, and configured to couple the back cover and the LCD module to each other. The coupling member may be formed of a double-sided tape.

An in-vehicle display device includes n layers from a cover glass to a housing bottom member, including a display panel midway thereof. The housing bottom member is fixed to an interior portion of a vehicle at at least two fixing points. When a virtual plane R is defined based on the two fixing points, a distance Z.sub.cg is defined based on a main surface of the cover glass and the virtual plane R, and a distance Z is defined based on a main surface of the display panel and the virtual plane R, a ratio Z/Z.sub.cg is 0.6 or less. When a virtual line L is defined based on the main surface of the display panel and the virtual plane R, the n layers satisfy Expression (1).

A pivotable display system having a traction spring tensioned to reversibly pivot the display around a pivot axis of a shaft connected to an upper portion of a display in a direction from a front side of the display toward the rear side of the display. In the event of an accident-related application of force below a threshold, the display is rotatable in a rearward direction toward an instrument panel, so that a steering column pushed in a direction towards the display avoids or at least reduces the risk of destruction of the display. In the event of accident-related application of force above the threshold, the traction spring may reversibly displace the display upwardly away from the steering column.

A method is disclosed for triggering at least one airbag, in particular a passenger airbag, positioned behind or next to a display apparatus, an impact being detected and at least one airbag being triggered via a control unit, a triggering unit being triggered in addition to the at least one airbag in order to destroy the display apparatus. Furthermore, an apparatus is disclosed, in particular for use in a vehicle.

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.

An in-vehicle display device capable of reducing an impact applied to a vehicle body from a lateral direction is provided. The display device includes a rear bezel fixed to the vehicle body, a front bezel attached to the rear bezel, a frame including an outer edge portion attached to the front bezel, a display panel including an outer peripheral edge fixed to an inner peripheral edge of the frame, and a frame extension portion extending from the frame and disposed at least close to a side portion of the front bezel. The display panel is supported so as to be movable together with the frame with respect to the rear bezel by the frame extension portion being pressed by the side portion deformed due to an impact applied from a lateral side of the vehicle body.

A device for receiving a display/operating panel and positioning the display/operating panel in a vehicle structure. The device may include at least one guide, that can bear on a corresponding receiver in the vehicle structure, characterized in that the guide includes both guide elements as well as deformation elements.
