Selectable instrument clusters |
摘要 |
An instrument panel comprises multiple instrument clusters with differently arranged display devices. The clusters are selectable and viewable one at a time behind a viewing surface. The clusters are mounted on a single support or frame. A rotating mechanism controlled by a vehicle driver moves the selected cluster into the line of sight of the viewing surface. A source of light backlights only the selected cluster when the selected cluster is lined up with the viewing surface. A reflector between the light sources and cluster spreads the backlighting evenly across the cluster. The light source is set on a PCB that includes a microcontroller for controlling the lights and sending display information to each cluster.
