Abstract
A device for receiving a display/operating panel and positioning the display/operating panel in a vehicle structure. The device may include at least one guide, that can bear on a corresponding receiver in the vehicle structure, characterized in that the guide includes both guide elements as well as deformation elements.
Claims20
A device for receiving a display/operating panel in a vehicle structure, comprising:
- at least one guide, configured to bear on a corresponding receiver in the vehicle structure, wherein the guide comprises guide elements and a honeycomb structure integrated into the at least one guide, wherein the honeycomb structure is configured to deform along the x-axis to absorb crash-induced kinetic energy, thereby functioning as a deformation segment,
- and wherein at least one cell in the honeycomb structure is configured as a sliding segment.
A method for forming a device for receiving a display/operating panel in a vehicle structure, comprising:
- forming at least one guide, configured to bear on a corresponding receiver in the vehicle structure, wherein the guide comprises guide elements and deformation elements integrated on the at least one guide, wherein forming the guide comprises forming a honeycomb structure, configured to deform along the x-axis to absorb crash-induced kinetic energy, thereby functioning as a deformation segment, wherein forming the guide comprises forming at least one cell in the honeycomb structure, configured as a sliding segment.
A device for receiving a display/operating panel in a vehicle structure, comprising:
- at least one guide, configured to bear on a corresponding receiver in the vehicle structure, wherein the guide comprises guide elements and a honeycomb structure integrated into the at least one guide,
- wherein the honeycomb structure being configured as a deformation segment, and wherein at least one cell in the honeycomb structure is configured as a sliding segment.
