[0032]
[0033] Referring to
[0034] Specifically, the electronic device 100a is, for example, a display device, which may be provided on a transport device such as a vehicle for use by passengers, but is not limited thereto. In one embodiment, the fastener 110 may be, for example, a portion of the transport device, such as a roof, or may be an independent entity and fixed on the transport device, but is not limited thereto. The electronic unit 120 may include an outer casing and a powered device in the outer casing, such as screen, but is not limited thereto. The upper surface 121 of the electronic unit 120 is the side farthest from the ground plane after the electronic unit 120 is installed on the transport device, and the lower surface 123 of the electronic unit 120 is the opposite side of the upper surface 121.
[0035] When the transport device collides with an impact object, the first air bag 130a pops up and inflate to cover the lower surface 123 of the electronic unit 120. Furthermore, when the first air bag 130a is inflated and expanded, in a horizontal direction (e.g., X-axis direction), the first air bag 130a may have a first maximum width W1, while the electronic unit 120 may have a second maximum width W2, and the first maximum width W1 is greater than the second maximum width W2. In more detail, the area of the inflated and expanded first air bag 130a on a horizontal plane (e.g., XZ plane) is larger than the area of the lower surface 123 of the electronic unit 120 on that plane (e.g., XZ plane), that is, an inflated and expanded first air bag 130a may be located between the electronic unit 120 and the passenger, thereby reducing the impact force of the passenger on the electronic unit lower surface 123. In other words, when the transport device collides with an impact object, the inflated and expanded first air bag 130a may reduce the force of the passenger hitting the lower surface 123 of the electronic unit 120 from bottom to top (e.g., F direction) or the force of the passenger hitting a portion of the lower surface 123 of the electronic unit 120 from back to front (e.g., Z direction). In one embodiment, the first maximum width W1 of the first air bag 130a after inflation may also be equal to the second maximum width W2 of the electronic unit 120.
[0036] Furthermore, the electronic device 100a provided on the transport device in this embodiment may further include a first buffer member 140a, provided on the two opposite sides of the electronic unit 120 along with the fastener 110. In one embodiment, the first air bag 130a may be provided in the first buffer member 140a, but is not limited thereto. Referring to
[0037] In one embodiment, the first air bag 130a may not be provided in the first buffer member 140a, but the first air bag 130a may be provided elsewhere. The first buffer member 140a may be, for example, a deformable structure such as rubber or spring, but is not limited thereto, which has an elastic shock-absorbing effect and may be provided at an edge of the electronic unit 120, reducing the force of the passenger hitting the electronic unit 120 and thereby protecting the passenger.
[0038] In addition, referring to
[0039] In one embodiment, when the transport device collides with an impact object, the height of the second air bag 135 is also higher than the electronic unit 120 in the vertical direction (e.g., Y-axis direction). That is, when the second air bag 135 is inflated and expanded, in the Z-axis direction, the second air bag 135 covers the front side of the electronic unit 120 (e.g., the surface on the XY plane), that is, the inflated and expanded second air bag 135 may be located between the electronic unit 120 and the passenger, but is not limited thereto, in order to achieve the effect of protecting the viewer. In one embodiment, when the second air bag 135 is inflated and expanded, the area of the second air bag 135 on the front side (e.g., XY plane) may be larger than the area of the electronic unit 120, but is not limited thereto. In one embodiment, when the second air bag 135 is inflated and expanded, the area of the second air bag 135 may be larger than the area of the electronic unit 120 plus the area of the first buffer member 140a, but is not limited thereto. In one embodiment, when the second air bag 135 is inflated and expanded, the second air bag 135 may cover the front side (e.g., XY plane) of the electronic unit 120 and extend to cover the surface of the first buffer member 140a, but is not limited thereto.
[0040] It should be noted that in one embodiment, the first air bag 130a and the second air bag 135 may be selectively provided, that is, only the first air bag 130a may be provided, or only the second air bag may be provided, or both the first air bag 130a and the second air bag 135 may be provided according to the needs, which is not limited herein.
[0041] In addition, referring to
[0042] In short, this embodiment may reduce the impact force by providing the first air bag 130a, and/or the first buffer member 140a, and/or the second air bag 135 to actively protect the passenger.
[0043] It is to be noted that the following embodiments use the reference numerals and a part of the contents of the above embodiments, and the same reference numerals are used to denote the same or similar elements, and the description of the same technical contents is omitted. For the description of the omitted part, reference may be made to the above embodiments, and details are not described in the following embodiments.
[0044]
[0045] First, referring to
[0046] Specifically, the first buffer member 160 may be, for example, a deformable structure such as rubber or spring, but is not limited thereto, which has an elastic shock-absorbing effect and may be provided at the edge of the electronic unit 120, reducing the impact force and thereby protecting the passenger. In one embodiment, shock-absorbing materials may also be provided around the electronic unit 120 to achieve anti-collision and/or buffering effects. The first buffer member 160 may include a plurality of sub buffer members 162 separated from each other, but is not limited thereto. In one embodiment, the first buffer member 160 may also be a unibody structure.
[0047] Refer to
[0048] In addition, referring to
[0049] That is, the first buffer member 160 of this embodiment is located between the electronic unit 120 and the second buffer member 140b, where the first buffer member 160 includes at least one sub buffer member 162 and at least one moving member 164. In one embodiment, the number of sub buffer members 162 and moving members 164 is multiple, and they may be arranged in a staggered manner, but not limited thereto. In one embodiment, there may be one sub buffer member 162 and multiple moving members 164, and the moving members 164 are provided adjacent to the sub buffer member 162, but are not limited thereto. In one embodiment, the material of the sub buffer member 162 may be, for example, a deformable structure such as rubber or spring, but is not limited thereto, which has an elastic shock-absorbing effect. In one embodiment, the material of the moving member 164 may be, for example, a deformable structure such as rubber or spring, but is not limited thereto, which has an elastic shock-absorbing effect. Referring to
[0050] Further, referring to
[0051]
[0052] First, referring to
[0053] Specifically, the fastener 110 may be, for example, a roof bracket, and the top portion 12 of the transport device 10 may be, for example, the inner surface of the transport device 10, but is not limited thereto. The shock absorbing structure 150 may be, for example, a multi-axis structure, a rubber, a magnetic levitation, or a spring, but is not limited thereto, so that the electronic unit 120 may be fixed on the fastener 110, allowing the electronic unit 120 to absorb shock in a bumpy environment and the electronic unit 120 to be in a stable state to achieve a better viewing experience. In one embodiment, similar to the shock absorbing structures 150 in
[0054] Furthermore, the electronic unit 120 of this embodiment includes a first detection system 127, and the first detection system 127 is configured to provide a signal to an adjustment portion 152. The first detection system 127 may be, for example, a sensor. In one embodiment, the sensor may be an optical sensor, such as a charge coupled device (CCD) image sensor or a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor (CIS), but not limited thereto. In addition, the electronic device 100c of this embodiment further includes an adjustment portion 152, and the adjustment portion 152 rotates the electronic unit 120 according to the signal.
[0055] That is, the first detection system 127 of the electronic unit 120 of this embodiment may be, for example, a charge coupled device (CCD) image sensor, which may detect the face or eyes of the viewer. According to the returned message calculated by the first detection system 127, the adjustment portion 152 performs angle adjustment on the electronic unit 120, such as angle rotation or plane displacement, so that the screen 125 and the face plane P of the passenger's face or eyes are maintained at the best viewing angle. For example, the viewing angle is: 25 degrees up, 30 degrees down, 30 degrees left and right, but not limited thereto.
[0056] In short, the electronic device 100c of this embodiment may reduce the discomfort caused by excessive vibration of the pavement through the shock absorbing structure 150, and the best viewing angle may be maintained through the first detection system 127, so that the user may view the electronic unit 120 at a stable angle. Even the passenger's face or eyes may be tracked through providing the first detection system 127, and then active detection feedback actively adjusts the screen angle of the electronic unit 120 through the adjustment portion 152 of the shock absorbing structure 150, so as to face the passengers at the best display angle.
[0057] Based on the above, in one embodiment of the disclosure, the fastener and the first air bag are respectively connected to two opposite sides of the electronic unit. Thus, when the first air bag inflates and expands, that is, when the transport device collides with an impact object, the first air bag may cover the lower surface of the electronic unit, thereby protecting passengers and reducing the force of the passenger hitting the electronic unit. Thus, the electronic device of the disclosure may have anti-collision function. In one embodiment of the disclosure, the first buffer member has an elastic shock-absorbing effect and may be provided on the two opposite sides of the electronic unit along with the fastener to avoid personal injury in the event of a collision. In one embodiment of the disclosure, the electronic device may alleviate the discomfort caused by excessive vibration of the pavement through a shock absorbing structure. Even the passenger's face or eyes may be tracked through providing the first detection system, and the screen angle of the electronic unit is actively adjusted through the adjustment portion of the shock absorbing structure, so as to face the passengers at the best display angle, allowing users to view the electronic unit at a stable angle.
[0058] Finally, it should be noted that the foregoing embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the disclosure, but not to limit the disclosure; although the disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, persons of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments can still be modified, or parts or all of the technical features thereof can be equivalently replaced; however, these modifications or substitutions do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the disclosure.
