The membrane (202) defines a first opening (230) adapted to receive a portion of at least one rotary switch (204). The housing (210) defines a second opening adapted to be aligned with the first opening (230) to receive the portion of the at least one rotary switch (204). The at least one rotary switch (204) is disposed in the housing (210). The at least one knob (216) mounted on the at least one rotary switch (204). The sealing member (214) is positioned on the housing (210) in the second opening (231), around the at least one rotary switch (204), between the at least one knob (216) and the housing (210).

A display device includes a backlight, a display element, a plate for holding at least a portion of an emission surface, from which an image light is emitted, provided on the display element, and a heat dissipation portion that dissipates heat generated from the display element. The display element is connected to the heat dissipation portion via the plate.

A panel intended for the cockpit of a vehicle is conductive so that a large number of electrical and electronic devices can be installed inside the cockpit. The panel has a structure consisting of a plurality of layers of substantially equal shape and size, superimposed and firmly coupled to one another. One of the layers consists of a flexible printed circuit board that extends substantially over the entire surface of the panel, or at least over a substantial portion thereof, and that is provided with electrical connectors arranged at positions where the electrical and electronic devices associated with the dashboard are to be subsequently installed. Wired connections of electrical and electronic devices associated with the dashboard are eliminated. This entails a considerable simplification when making electrical connections to these electrical and electronic devices, as well as in the case of subsequent maintenance and/or repair work.

A display apparatus and a vehicle including the same are provided. A display apparatus includes: a display panel configured to display an image, a driving circuit including: a flexible circuit film connected to the display panel, and a printed circuit board connected to the flexible circuit film, a first supporting member at a rear surface of the display panel, the first supporting member having a hole therein, and a vibration apparatus supported by the first supporting member, the vibration apparatus including a first vibration apparatus disposed at the rear surface of the display panel, wherein the flexible circuit film extends through the hole, and wherein the printed circuit board is disposed at a rear surface of the first supporting member.

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.

A display assembly for an automotive vehicle includes a housing having a front opening, a peripheral wall, and a rear wall arranged along a main axis. The housing is configured to receive a display module on a front opening side and a printed circuit board connected to the display module. The printed circuit board includes an electronic control unit to control the display module, characterized in that it further comprises an internal casing which is mounted in the housing against the housing rear wall, said internal casing comprising a first holding surface configured to receive the printed circuit board and a second holding surface configured to receive the display module, and in that the housing comprises a first set of axially retaining members holding the printed circuit board on the first holding surface and a second set of axially retaining members holding the display module on the second holding surface.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle instrument panel, including: a plurality of displays; a cover glass covering the plurality of displays; and a first frame of a metal material that supports the plurality of displays by being press-fitted to the cover glass with the plurality of displays interposed therebetween.

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a method of assembling a glass article. The glass article includes a display module and a glass sheet. In the method, an electronic ribbon connector is positioned in a vertical position. The electronic ribbon connector has a first end connected to the display module and a second free end. The display module is attached to the glass sheet. Adhesive is applied to the glass sheet around the display module. A frame is arranged over the glass sheet. The frame has a depending edge and a slot positioned adjacent to the depending edge. The frame is moved towards the glass sheet such that the second free end of the electronic ribbon connector extends through the slot and such that the depending edge of the frame contacts the adhesive.

The present disclosure relates to a touch driving device, a display device including the same, and a touch management device, and more particularly, to a touch driving device which includes a panel divided into one or more separate areas and differently sets the touch sensitivities for the respective areas in order to prevent an error caused by a user's mistake, and a display device including the same and a touch management method.
