Problems solved by technology

[0004] In a small low-speed electric vehicle without a roof, it is difficult to see the display of the direction indicator because the operation panel is directly exposed to sunlight
It is conceivable to supplement the visual display by making the buzzer sound in conjunction with the direction indicator's movement, but when there are noise sources in the surrounding environment, the sound of the buzzer may be mixed in with the noise and make it difficult to hear. arrive
Especially for the elderly with poor sports vision and hearing, it is difficult to recognize the action of the direction indicator only by making the LED lights flash one by one in sequence or making the buzzer sound, so that they forget to turn off the direction indicator

Embodiment Construction

[0016] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. figure 2 It is a figure of the electric vehicle which concerns on one embodiment of this invention seen from the rear right. In this figure, the electric vehicle 1 is a four-wheeled vehicle driven by a motor, for example, a vehicle for the elderly traveling at a maximum speed of 6 km / hour. The frame 2 constituting the main body of the vehicle includes a front portion 2a, a rear portion 2b, and a pedal 2c. The front part 2a supports a pair of left and right front wheels 3 (the left front wheel cannot be seen), and the pillar 4 connected with the front wheels 3 extends upwards and backwards. A steering handle 6 having an operation panel 5 is mounted on an upper portion of the steering column 4 . On the left and right side surfaces of the front portion 2a of the vehicle frame 2, direction lamps 7R, 7L as direction indicators are provided. The winkers 7R and 7L include l...

Abstract

Provided is an electric vehicle provided with an action display device for a direction indicator having excellent visibility on an operation panel. In the operation panel 5 disposed at a center part of a steering wheel 6, a display 19 in which a plurality of LED's 20 are disposed in parallel is provided. The display 19 displays the LED's 20 to indicate residual battery quantity by their number, and indicates turning left or right by prescribed patterns in accordance with operation of a direction indicator switch 14. For turning right, the LED's 20 are lighted from the left side in order to increase the number lighted rightward. When all are lighted, they are lighted off once, and then they are lighted from the left side to increase the number lighted again. For turning left, the LED's are lighted from the right side to increase the number lighted leftward. When they are all lighted, they are lighted off once, and they are lighted from the right side again.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electric vehicle, and more particularly, to an electric vehicle in which the operation of a direction indicator can be easily confirmed. Background technique [0002] In the existing direction indicator device for vehicles, corresponding to the operation of the turn signal switch for turning left and right, the direction lights (direction indicators) installed on the side of the vehicle body, etc., are blinked, and in front of the driver's seat The operation panel of the vehicle is equipped with a display that shows the operating state of the directional lights, and the driver can recognize the operating state of the directional lights through the display. [0003] In recent years, many elderly and disabled people use small, low-speed electric vehicles. For such an electric vehicle, a display device for recognizing an operation state of a direction indicator has been proposed. For example, in the electric vehicle d...
