les commandes d'un véhicule La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'activation par surface tactile matricielle, notamment pour la commande de divers organes dans un véhicule, comme par exemple la commande de lèvevitre et la The controls of a vehicle The present invention relates to an activation device by matrix tactile surface, in particular for the control of various organs in a vehicle, such as for example the window control and the
commande de rétroviseur.mirror control.
Il est usuel pour la commande de ces organes de prévoir un dispositif de manoeuvre sous forme de commutateurs ou parfois d'une It is usual for the control of these members to provide an operating device in the form of switches or sometimes of a
manette actionnable dans quatre directions, souvent appelée "joystick". joystick operable in four directions, often called a "joystick".
On a proposé aussi, plus récemment, d'utiliser pour les commandes des surfaces tactiles matricielles permettant de détecter un 15 appui simple du doigt du conducteur et, en fonction de la position en X,Y It has also been proposed, more recently, to use for the touch screen matrix surfaces making it possible to detect a simple pressing of the driver's finger and, as a function of the position in X, Y

On pourra se référer par exemple aux documents FR 2 798 329, FR 2 800 885 et US 6 157 372. Ces surfaces tactiles peuvent être de tout 20 type et utiliser différentes technologies. of the detected support and / or of the subsequent displacement of this support on the surface, of triggering a particular type of action or of control of the vehicle organ. Reference may be made, for example, to documents FR 2 798 329, FR 2 800 885 and US 6 157 372. These tactile surfaces can be of any type and use different technologies.
Si l'utilisation de telles surfaces tactiles va indiscutablement dans If the use of such tactile surfaces is indisputably in
le sens d'une meilleure convivialité et d'une compacité accrue des dispositifs de commande, elle accroît en revanche le risque d'erreurs de commande par suite d'un positionnement ambigu du doigt ou des doigts sur 25 la surface tactile. the sense of a better user-friendliness and an increased compactness of the control devices, on the other hand it increases the risk of control errors as a result of an ambiguous positioning of the finger or fingers on the tactile surface.
Le but de l'invention est de proposer une surface tactile matricielle qui ne présente pas ces inconvénients et réduise ainsi les The object of the invention is to provide a matrix tactile surface which does not have these drawbacks and thus reduces the
ambigutés de lecture.ambiguities of reading.
L'invention atteint son but grâce à un dispositif d'activation par 30 surface tactile matricielle comportant au moins deux zones de détection distinctes auxquelles correspondent des commandes caractérisé en ce que les deux zones sont physiquement séparées par une zone médiane à laquelle ne correspond aucune commande. Cette zone médiane neutre située à l'interface entre deux zones permet d'éviter les ambigutés de lecture. 35 L'absence de commande peut résulter selon les modes de réalisation soit d'un circuit inhibant les commandes pour un appui détecté dans cette zone, soit d'une absence totale de détection dans cette zone, voire d'une impossibilité d'accès à cette zone grâce à un masque mécanique permettant The invention achieves its object by means of an activation device using a matrix tactile surface comprising at least two distinct detection zones to which correspond commands, characterized in that the two zones are physically separated by a middle zone to which no command corresponds. . This neutral middle zone located at the interface between two zones avoids the ambiguities of reading. 35 The absence of a command can result, according to the embodiments, either from a circuit inhibiting commands for a support detected in this zone, or from a total absence of detection in this zone, or even from an impossibility of access to this area thanks to a mechanical mask allowing
de simplifier l'analyse du signal.to simplify the analysis of the signal.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulièrement adapté à la détection d'appuis simultanés, la surface tactile comprend deux zones According to an embodiment particularly suitable for the detection of simultaneous presses, the tactile surface comprises two zones
séparées par une zone médiane.separated by a middle zone.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation, il est prévu une pluralité de According to another embodiment, a plurality of
zones distinctes, séparées deux à deux ou réparties autour d'une zone 10 centrale neutre. distinct zones, separated two by two or distributed around a neutral central zone.

La surface tactile matricielle 10 de la figure i fournit les 20 coordonnées X et Y d'un point d'appui situé sur elle. Elle est divisée en deux zones i et 2 parallèles aux ordonnées Y et séparées par une zone - Figure 1 is a diagram of a first embodiment of touch surface according to the invention, - Figure 2 is a diagram of a second embodiment of touch surface according to the invention, - Figure 3 is a diagram of a third embodiment of the tactile surface according to the invention.

La zone médiane M permet de distinguer avantageusement et 30 sans ambiguté un appui simple d'un appui double. The middle zone M makes it possible to advantageously and unambiguously distinguish a single press from a double press.

Afin d'éviter les mauvaises interprétations, on peut encore 5 faciliter l'analyse des signaux en utilisant un masque mécanique dans la zone médiane M. L'avantage de l'invention est donc d'utiliser grâce à cette combinaison de moyens informatiques et mécanique, toute surface tactile à In order to avoid misinterpretations, it is still possible to facilitate the analysis of the signals by using a mechanical mask in the middle zone M.

La figure 2 illustre un second mode de réalisation dans lequel la surface tactile 10 est constituée de quatre zones 1 à 4 réparties en étoile autour d'une zone centrale neutre M à laquelle ne correspond aucune 15 commande. Les zones sont ainsi nettement distinctes et on évite des confusions de zone ou des mouvements antagonistes. Une telle surface tactile est par exemple applicable à la commande d'ouverture ou de FIG. 2 illustrates a second embodiment in which the touch surface 10 consists of four zones 1 to 4 distributed in a star around a neutral central zone M to which no command corresponds. The zones are thus clearly distinct and zone confusions or antagonistic movements are avoided. Such a tactile surface is for example applicable to the command to open or
fermeture de toit ouvrant, ou à la commande des rétroviseurs extérieurs. opening sunroof, or when ordering exterior mirrors.
