Analysis and Research on Driver’s Comfort in the Process of Getting on and off the Car

Abstract:

Due to the Low Body and Small Door, Driver’s Comfort in the Process of Getting on and Off the Car Must Be Taken into Account when Designing the Car Body. the Research on Driver’s Comfort in the Process of Getting on and Off the Car Is an Important Direction of Vehicle Ergonomics. and it Is Also One of the Important Projects of Man-Machine Engineering Checking at Present. there Are Quantities of Factors Influencing Driver’s Comfort in the Process of Getting on and Off the Car, such as the Relative Position between the Driver’s Seat and the Steering Wheel, Together with the Instrument Panel, the Size Dimension and the Tilting Degree of the Doorframe of One Side of the Car, the Threshold Layout Position of the Front Porch of a Car, the Coordinates of the Point "R".
