Dashboard display indicating speed and vehicle having the same
First Claim
1. A dashboard display of a vehicle, the dashboard display comprising:
- a display panel having a speed display area that outputs a speed range of the vehicle at a first speed interval and an event display area that outputs an event information;
a needle that is configured to indicate a current speed of the vehicle by rotating to thereby point to a corresponding position along the displayed speed range; and
a controller that is configured to, based on one or more preset conditions of the vehicle being satisfied, change a boundary of the speed display area from a first speed display area within the display panel to a second speed display area within the display panel that is different from the first speed display area,wherein;
the needle is a first needle,the dashboard display includes a second needle,the controller is configured to cause the display panel to display a first gauge that corresponds to the first needle and a second gauge that corresponds to the second needle, andthe controller is configured to, based on the one or more preset conditions being satisfied, merge the first gauge and the second gauge to a single merged gauge that corresponds to one of the first and second needles, and indicate two different values on the merged gauge by using the corresponding one of the first and second needles and a virtual needle.

Abstract
A dashboard display of a vehicle includes a display panel having a speed display area that outputs a speed range of the vehicle at a first speed interval and an event display area that outputs an event information, a needle for indicating a current speed of the vehicle by rotating to thereby point to a corresponding position along the displayed speed range, and a controller that is configured to, when one or more preset conditions of the vehicle being satisfied, change a boundary of the speed display area from a first speed display area within the display panel to a second speed display area within the display panel that is different from the first speed display area.

11. A dashboard display of a vehicle, the dashboard display comprising:
-
a display panel having a speed display area that outputs a speed range of the vehicle at a first speed interval and an event display area that outputs an event information, the speed display area being configured to show a needle that indicates a current speed of the vehicle by rotating to thereby point to a corresponding position along the displayed speed range; and a controller that is configured to; based on one or more preset conditions of the vehicle being satisfied, change a boundary of the speed display area from a first speed display area within the display panel to a second speed display area within the display panel that is different from the first speed display area, and receive event information generated by an event during operation of the vehicle, wherein; the needle is a first needle, the dashboard display includes a second needle, the controller is configured to cause the display panel to display a first gauge that corresponds to the first needle and a second gauge that corresponds to the second needle, and the controller is configured to, based on the one or more preset conditions being satisfied, replace one of the first and second gauges with a third gauge, and indicate a desired value on the third gauge by rotating the corresponding one of the first and second needles. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A dashboard display of a vehicle, the dashboard display comprising:
-
a display panel defining at least one hole, the display panel comprising a speed display area that outputs a speed range of the vehicle, and an event display area that outputs an event information; a needle that is configured to indicate a current speed of the vehicle by rotating to thereby point to a corresponding position along the displayed speed range; a driving portion that is configured to apply power for rotating the needle; a fixing portion that connects the needle and the driving portion through the at least one hole; and a controller that is configured to; based on one or more preset conditions of the vehicle being satisfied, change a boundary of the speed display area from a first speed display area within the display panel to a second speed display area within the display panel that is different from the first speed display area, and control the driving portion to apply power to rotate the needle to thereby indicate the current speed of the vehicle on the second display area.
