What is dashboard?

, also known as the dashboard instrument panel, it is widely used all vehicle cab and a construction machine, which is mainly by the meter, steering wheel, instrument panel housing frame and dashboard instrument panel wire harness and other components.

1. Introduction dashboard

on the bus instrument panel is the most sophisticated interiors, from design to loading, to go through the form of creativity, structural design, model making, sample test equipment such as design and technology program, are indispensable. For example, in a single style to words, roof interiors design can not be directly modeled, but the dashboard is not true: there is no form rendering model would not be able to do. Meanwhile, the dashboard also relates to issues ergonomics, materials engineering, processing methods and other aspects of the process route. Therefore, dashboard passenger interior is the most time-consuming.
passenger dashboard is a bus driver control bus traveling from console and other features. , Dashboard drive zone should be non-reflective panels or boards, and the indoor lighting device windshield, mirror, etc. of the reflected light should not dazzle the driver.

2. The dashboard instrument panel classification

on the dashboard can mine for real-time monitoring and control of the operating condition of the dump truck, is directly reflected in human-computer interaction. Various dashboard indicator to reflect the operation of the tub, and to achieve control of the tub by the driver buttons, knobs, handles, etc. actuating device, the instrument panel is running tub “of the central nervous system.”
according to the installation position of the instrument panel divided into the main instrument panel, center console, dashboard three elevated. The main instrument panel disposed most light, indicator and conventional control buttons. To facilitate real-time monitoring of the tub driver status, vehicle operation indicating means are disposed in the main instrument panel and the dashboard elevated, requires the driver to be observed time data (such as speed, braking instructions, error display, etc.) must be disposed in line with the main axis of the main driving seat dashboard. Further main dashboard also contains 2 to 3 air-conditioning outlet.
With the continuous improvement of mining dump truck technology, expanding the use of new technologies and features, the space station’s main instrument has been unable to provide sufficient space to ask for the installation of these new devices. However, the location of the mine has a high dump truck cab, the field of view at the bottom of the characteristics, the instrument panel such that the elevated more and more applications use dump trucks in the mine.

3. Meter dashboard arrangement

disposed on the meter to ensure that the principle of operation of a driver, and attention is observed, and identification from the identification control instruments and indicators and buttons should handle ergonomically, conventional instrumentation, the button should be disposed at 20 ° within the range of ~ 40 ° horizontal field of view of important instruments, the button should be disposed in the center of visual field range of 3 °, 40 ° ~ 60 ° region allows only minor instrument, buttons, and not commonly used in addition to instrument unimportant, It should not be provided on the outer 80 ° horizontal field of view. Distance should handle and control buttons arranged on the right of the dashboard and the driver’s right hand can be easily accessed, the meter is arranged in the left hand side, the light should be arranged above the meter, the meter may be required in real-time observation of the driver and viewport steering wheel rim and between the web. Dashboard arrangement
After determining the position of the seat, when the operator is disposed more inside the front of the main instrument dashboard, instrument panel may be designed as straight, curved or trapezoidal. When the instrument is disposed in the line of sight is preferably 560 ~ 750 mm range, line of sight dashboard should be kept vertical with the driver while driving as much as possible, also be considered the height of the main instrument panel does not affect vision. This arrangement can make the viewing distance and eye fatigue when working for a long time, too close or too far away to recognize and read will affect the speed and accuracy of the human eye.

4. Dashboard instrument panel switches

1, conversion switch
A / C switch: when the engine is operating, air volume control knob Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ file anywhere, and press the button, indicator lights, compressor work . Button is pressed again, the indicator is off, the compressor is turned off. This switch; make simultaneous use of warm air conditioning integrally. The single air heating model configuration, the A / C switch is adjusted to cover the switch block,
and external circulation switch: this mode is selected by pressing of the inner loop. This mode prevents outside air into the car; failure mode of the outer loop outside, the air inside the vehicle circulates exchange.
switch mirror heating: After this switch is pressed, the mirror state is heated to remove water droplets or mist on a mirror. This transfer switch electrically exterior rearview mirror according to the configuration synchronization matching, such as a hand mirror tune adjustment, this switch is adjusted to switch blockages.
2, hazard switch
hazard lamp switch may be in response to the ignition switch is turned off. Under the following circumstances hazard warning lights can be turned on:
your vehicle is experiencing congestion;
that you have an emergency situation;
your vehicle broke down due to a technical failure.
3, the temperature dial knob temperature
to adjust the temperature, the left knob is rotated, the lower the temperature; the rotary knob to the right, the higher the temperature.
4, ESC headlamp switch
blinding light near the optical path must be adjusted according to the vehicle driver to avoid load across the vehicle.
5, the light switch
Open: the end of the rotation of the knob lever multi-function switch, the first position is rotated to open the small lights, tail lights, license plate lights, meter lamp. A second location opened headlights.
Close: Turn the switch lever to the “OFF” position, turning off the lights.
