Digital video disc vehicle television

摘要

A digital-video-disc vehicle television has a thin ceiling-mountable TV housing (1) having a front edge (2) from which a preferably flat TV screen (3) pivots adjustably downward from a stowage space (4) and having a rear edge (5) with a digital video disc (DVD) slot (6). The TV housing is preferably oval-shaped with a major length of about fifteen inches and a major width of about eight inches. Thickness is about one-to-three inches, depending on type and plurality of components it uses. Intermediate the stowage space and the DVD slot are dome lights (9) that preferably are adjustable for reading and a rearward-facing control panel (7) that preferably has pushbutton control and is backlit. Audiovisual signaling (18, 19) is received selectively from remote or in-vehicle broadcasting sources and from the DVD player (15) and transmitted to a speaker (14) and to the TV screen as controlled by a control unit (17). An FM transmitter (20) is employed to enhance sound received from audio characteristics of the audiovisual signaling and transmitted to the speaker.
