Traction control display device for vehicle

1. A traction control display device for a vehicle, the vehicle having traction control for suppressing slipping of a wheel in response to operation of an accelerator by a driver, the traction control display device comprising:

a meter having a needle movable over a dial and indicating an engine rotational speed; and

a TCS indicator indicating that the traction control is in an activated state within the meter;

wherein the TCS indicator is disposed in a region of parts of high engine rotational speeds within a movable range of the needle within the meter,

wherein the TCS indicator is disposed in an upper part within the meter, and

further comprising a TCS off indicator indicating that the traction control is off,

wherein the TCS off indicator is disposed in the upper part within the meter,

wherein the TCS indicator and the TCS off indicator are in proximity to each other in a same color type, and indicators of a color type different from the color type of the TCS indicator and the TCS off indicator are disposed as indicators on a left and a right of the TCS indicator and the TCS off indicator.

2. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the meter includes a numeral section indicating the engine rotational speed in a direction of rotation of the needle, and a plurality of indicator sections including the TCS indicator are arranged in substantially a shape of an arc in an inside diameter section of the numeral section.

3. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the TCS indicator is disposed in a vicinity of a red zone indicating a vicinity of a rotational speed limit within the movable range of the needle within the meter.

4. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein indicators of a red color type are disposed in proximity to an idle rotational speed indicating position of the needle within the meter.

5. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising an idle stop enabling indicator indicating that idle stop control is enabled,

wherein the idle stop enabling indicator is disposed in a position higher than a position indicating an idle rotational speed within the movable range of the needle within the meter.

6. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 5 , further comprising an idle stop disabling indicator indicating that the idle stop control is disabled,

wherein the idle stop disabling indicator is disposed in a position adjacent to the idle stop enabling indicator and disposed in a position close to the idle rotational speed.

7. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 6 ,

wherein the idle stop enabling indicator is disposed above the idle stop disabling indicator.

8. A traction control display device for a vehicle, the vehicle having traction control for suppressing slipping of a wheel in response to operation of an accelerator by a driver, the traction control display device comprising:

a meter having a needle movable over a dial and indicating an engine rotational speed; and

a TCS indicator indicating that the traction control is in an activated state within the meter;

wherein the TCS indicator is disposed in a region of parts of high engine rotational speeds within a movable range of the needle within the meter,

further comprising an idle stop enabling indicator indicating that idle stop control is enabled and an idle stop disabling indicator indicating that the idle stop control is disabled,

wherein the idle stop enabling indicator is disposed in a position higher than a position indicating an idle rotational speed within the movable range of the needle within the meter, and the idle stop disabling indicator is disposed in a position adjacent to the idle stop enabling indicator and disposed in a position close to the idle rotational speed.

9. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 8 ,

wherein the idle stop enabling indicator is disposed above the idle stop disabling indicator.

10. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 8 ,

wherein the TCS indicator is disposed in an upper part within the meter.

11. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 10 , further comprising a TCS off indicator indicating that the traction control is off,

wherein the TCS off indicator is disposed in the upper part within the meter and in proximity to the TCS indicator.

12. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 11 ,

wherein the TCS indicator and the TCS off indicator are in proximity to each other in a same color type, and indicators of a color type different from the color type of the TCS indicator and the TCS off indicator are disposed as indicators on a left and a right of the TCS indicator and the TCS off indicator.

13. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 8 ,

wherein the meter includes a numeral section indicating the engine rotational speed in a direction of rotation of the needle, and a plurality of indicator sections including the TCS indicator are arranged in substantially a shape of an arc in an inside diameter section of the numeral section.

14. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 8 ,

wherein the TCS indicator is disposed in a vicinity of a red zone indicating a vicinity of a rotational speed limit within the movable range of the needle within the meter.

15. The traction control display device for the vehicle according to claim 8 ,

wherein indicators of a red color type are disposed in proximity to an idle rotational speed indicating position of the needle within the meter.
