Modern automotive cockpit

摘要

This is a conceptual automotive cockpit designed for application to several vehicles. The steering wheel has been flattened at the top and bottom to enhance the beauty of the design. The turn signal switches, headlight switches and high beams have all been modified into buttons located on the central display. The windshield wiper and washer have been modified into a knob located to the left side of the steering wheel. The meters and gauges have been divided into three separate displays located around the steering wheel. A coin box has been provided for storing small items. This coin box is operated by a magnetic mechanism, which is disengaged when the box is pushed inwards slightly. Once returned to the closed position, the coin box is held in place again by the magnet. The parking brake release lever is located beneath the coin box, to eliminate the need for a lever commonly found along the central console area. There is a G.P.S. (global positioning system) screen placed at the top of the central display. Several buttons are provided to control it. The C.D. player, radio system and A.C./heating controls have all been incorporated into this display. The extended central console area houses an automatic transmission gear, a small storage case for cellular phones, the movable pad, the concealed cup holders and a center console box. The front passengers panel section houses an airbag, an extending board for writing upon, penholders and the glove box.
