The operating unit for a vehicle, in particular for a vehicle component, is provided with a housing (10) which has an operating element (12), such as a display for example, and is designed to be secured in a device, in particular in a vehicle dashboard. The operating element (12) is elastically mounted on the housing (10). An actuator (16) is additionally provided for mechanically exciting the operating element (12) when an operation of the operating element (12) has been detected. Finally, the operating unit also has a vibration compensating mass (20) which can be mechanically excited by the actuator or by one actuator (16) when an operation of the operating element (12) has been detected and/or which is mounted on the housing (10) and can be moved in order to substantially compensate for forces acting on the housing (10) when the operating element (12) is moved.

An electrical connector structure adapted for a cigarette lighter device in a vehicle, which is compatible with a conventional vehicle cigarette lighter plug or socket, includes: a female connector having an external thread for at an inlet outer diameter of the female connector; and a male connector having a flange and an internally threaded locking cap; wherein the male connector is configured to be inserted into the female connector such that: the flange of the plug contacts an inlet end of the female connector; the internal thread of the locking cap is screwed onto the external thread of the female connector; and the male and female connectors are securely coupled mechanically while achieving an electrical connection therebetween.

A first member of a cover member includes an operation portion disposed so as to correspond to a position where a sensor body is attached and having a sensor region (T) of substantially the same size as a sensor unit on the front side of the operation portion, and a design connection portion that is continuous with a side part of the operation portion and that has a surface formed so as to be continuous with a contoured surface of a wall and curved with a smaller radius of curvature than a surface shape of the operation portion.

A vehicular display system includes a movable body displaceable between an erect position and a tilted position, a first moving body disposed on the vehicle upper side of the movable body in the erect position, a second moving body disposed on the vehicle lower side of the movable body in the erect position, a drive device that displaces the movable body between the erect position and the tilted position, a guide device that guides the second moving body along the displacement operation of the movable body between the erect position and the tilted position, a display device that allows a user to view vehicle interior display information as if the information were displayed in an information display area of the movable body, and an elastic member that applies an elastic force between the movable body and the drive device.

A head-up display system for a motor vehicle includes a projection unit for providing a display image; a transparent, holographic optical fiber display panel for outputting, on a display surface, a display image that is coupled into the display panel via a coupling-in region; and a guide device designed to move the display panel between an operational position and a parked position.

A receiving system for receiving at least one guided device, in particular an electric unit, in an instrument mount of a motor vehicle. The invention also relates to an electric module, which comprises a receiving system and a guided device, as well as a motor vehicle, which includes a receiving system or an electric module. The receiving system includes a receiving unit for spatially receiving the guided device in the receiving system, as well as a guide for implementing a guided slide-in movement of the guided device, in particular the electric unit, into the receiving unit. The guide is fixed in relation to the receiving unit and defines a nonlinear movement path, so that the guided device may be oriented in a first spatial orientation on an outside of the receiving system facing a driver of a motor vehicle.

A secure electrical connector set compatible with a conventional vehicle cigarette lighter includes: a female connector having an external thread for at an inlet outer diameter of the female connector; and a male connector having a flange and an internally threaded locking cap; wherein the male connector is configured to be inserted into the female connector such that: the flange of the plug contacts an inlet end of the female connector; the internal thread of the locking cap is screwed onto the external thread of the female connector; and the male and female connectors are securely coupled mechanically while achieving an electrical connection therebetween.

A vehicle information display system includes: a master-side instrument including a first power transmission coil, a first signal transmission coil, and a first case; and a meter instrument including a display unit, a second power transmission coil, a second signal transmission coil, and a second case. The master-side instrument and the meter instrument have a positional relation such that in a state in which a fitting recessed part of the first case and the second case are fitted to each other, the first power transmission coil is opposed to the second power transmission coil, and the first signal transmission coil is opposed to the second signal transmission coil.

A display device for a motor vehicle, as well as a method for producing a display device for a motor vehicle. The display device comprises two or more displays, wherein the two or more displays have display housings and are optically bonded to a respective cover pane. A holding frame connects the two or more displays to each other. By means of at least one compensating element of the display device, the two or more displays can be aligned relative to each other.

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.
