Provided is a multi-operating switch device for a vehicle, including: a housing unit; a substrate; a switch shaft unit; a rotary switch unit; a directional switch unit; and a push switch unit. The directional switch unit includes: a directional slide part within the housing unit; a directional switch disposed on the substrate, and configured to be operated by a change in the position of the directional slide part to generate a signal indicating the change in the position of the directional slide part; and a directional return part. The directional switch includes: a directional switch housing; and a directional switch knob partially exposed to the outside from one surface of the directional switch housing to contact with the directional slide part so that when the directional switch knob is pressedly rotated pivotally about an axis parallel with the substrate, it is received in the directional switch housing.

Multi-operating switch unit for vehicles

The present invention provides a vehicle sound generator apparatus comprising a vehicle state sensing unit, a storage unit comprising a sound source storage unit and a reference data storage unit, a sound source playback unit, a sound source amplification unit, a sound output unit, and a control unit. The vehicle state sensing unit senses a vehicle speed, and the control unit calculates a corresponding shifting factor from the velocity shifting profile to correspond to the vehicle speed, and controls and outputs the sound pressure or the pitch of the operating sound. The present invention generate and control a virtual operating sound, which reflects a change in vehicle speed and time to generate a virtual sound that imitates a real internal combustion engine sound while increasing recognizability of a pedestrian so that the vehicle operating sound can be transferred to the driver and pedestrian to further secure safety of the pedestrian.

Vehicle sound generator apparatus and method for controlling the same

An environmentally-friendly vehicle sound generator apparatus. The apparatus includes a vehicle state sensing unit, a sound source storage unit, a sound source playback unit, a sound source amplification unit, a sound output unit, and a control unit. The control unit receives a sensing signal from the vehicle state sensing unit and controlling the operation of the sound source playback unit so as to play back the operating sound in different playback methods to control and change the operating sound according to the received sensing signal. The vehicle state sensing unit senses a vehicle speed, and if it is determined according to a vehicle speed signal that the vehicle speed reaches a preset speed range, the control unit fades out the output of the sound output unit at a preset ratio of the vehicle speed to a time elapsed after the vehicle speed reaches the preset speed range.

Sound generating system for environment friendly vehicle and a method for controlling the system

An environmentally-friendly vehicle sound generator control apparatus. The apparatus includes a sound playback unit including a sound comparison unit for comparing a frequency band-specific reference sound level data with an extracted plurality of frequency band-specific sound data for each frequency band in response to a comparison control signal of a control unit, a sound control unit for controlling a pitch or a volume of a plurality of frequency band-specific sample sound source data to form a plurality of frequency band-specific sample control sound source data if the extracted plurality of frequency band-specific sound data is smaller than the frequency band-specific reference sound level data, and a sound mixing unit for mixing the plurality of frequency band-specific sample control sound source data and transferring the mixed plurality of frequency band-specific sample control sound source data to the sound output unit so that a pedestrian's vehicle recognition sound can be outputted.

Regurating sound generating system for environment friendly vehicle and a method for controlling the system

The present invention provides a vehicular glance lighting apparatus which provides a driver with vehicle-running information as light of a background screen and includes a driver attention function through prompt information delivery such that the driver visually recognizes as a background screen the vehicle-running information needed essentially or minimally for running the vehicle without requiring the driver's attention to avoid dissipation of the driver's sight, thereby preventing the driver's driving attention from being diverted, and a method for controlling the same. The vehicle-running information related with the running of a vehicle to be outputted in the form of light as a background screen, so that a driver can perceive the vehicle-running information without diverting or obstructing the driver's driving attention, thereby enhancing the driver's ability to cope with a vehicle travel risk during the traveling of the vehicle.
