    摘要: The operating unit for a vehicle includes an operating element having an operating surface movable in an actuating direction from a rest position into a function-triggering position and from the function-triggering position back to the rest position by means of depressing. A parallel guiding device ensures that the operating surface moves in parallel. The parallel guiding device is provided with at least one pair of engaging first and second levers which are mounted in an articulated manner with play on support elements being in turn connected to the operating element. The support elements are axially guided on a carrier element. The levers are pivotably mounted on bearing blocks, substantially free of play, so that the operating element behaves substantially free of play in directions transverse to the depressing movement. The parallel guiding device is designed in compliance with tolerances that are comparatively easy to realize in terms of manufacture.

    摘要: Proposed is an operation apparatus for a vehicle that improves visibility and interior aesthetics by appearing/disappearing mechanism of a button. The operation apparatus includes a panel, an operation module capable of moving, through an opening of the panel, between a first position and a second position spaced apart from each other in a front-back direction, a button placed on the operation module, a rotary link rotatably provided on an axis orthogonal to the front-back direction, a drive source for rotating the rotary link, and a cam mechanism having a guide path for inducing an angular motion of the rotary link and, thereby, moving the operation module to the first position or the second position.

    摘要: An operator control device for controlling vehicle functions in a transportation vehicle, a system, and a corresponding method. Provided are operator control elements on a steering wheel and a display indicator to be used for controlling vehicle functions. Operator control zones/regions with which functions are selected and controlled are located on the left and the right of the steering wheel in a position that is ergonomically easily reached by the driver's thumbs. The contexts/functions to be controlled in each case are depicted in the display element in the driver's line of sight here, so that diversion of the driver's eyes is minimized. The operator control elements are of a symmetrical design.

    摘要: A display control system causes a plurality of display devices to display a same application in coordination among a plurality of display control devices each of the plurality of display control devices includes an obtainer that obtains an input event that is an input to an application according to an operation; a processor that outputs the input event obtained to at least another one of the plurality of display control devices; and a notifier that notifies an application unit of the input event when the processor obtains the input event from a display control device which has output the input event among the plurality of display control devices. The application performs processing that is common among the plurality of the display control devices and for causing the plurality of display devices to display the same application.
