Vehicle-mounted equipment can experience significant movement under transient shock loads, which may lead to fractures and failures, posing safety risks during transportation. To investigate the fracture causes of the vehicle-mounted display control console’s surface, a finite element method (FEM) simulation was performed on the structure of the console under shock load conditions. By comparing the actual fracture images of the console’s surface with the FEM analysis results, the cause of bolt fractures during the transportation process was identified, and the correctness of the console model and simulation results was verified. To address the aforementioned issue, this study applied topology optimization design theory to optimize the console structure. The optimization method not only enhanced the structural strength, ensuring the console could safely operate under shock load conditions but also reduced the weight of the main frame structure by 6.241 kg, achieving lightweight design. This optimization method provides theoretical guidance for the design of in vehicle equipment.
