Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher beschrieben. Die zugehörigen Zeichnungen zeigen:The invention is described in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment. The associated drawings show:
Fig. 1 eine perspektivische Teilansicht des Innenraums, Fig. 1 is a partial perspective view of the interior,
Fig. 2 ein Beispiel für die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Multifunktions-Bedieneinrichtung und Fig. 2 shows an example of the operation of the multifunction control device according to the invention and
Fig. 3 ein weiteres Beispiel anhand eines Audiomenüs. Fig. 3 shows another example using an audio menu.
Fig. 1 zeigt eine Teilansicht eines Fahrzeuginnenraums mit einer erfindungsgemäßen Multifunktions-Bedieneinrichtung, die eine in der Armaturentafel 10 angeordnete Anzeigeeinrichtung 11 und eine Bedieneinrichtung 12 in der Mittelkonsole 13 aufweist. Fig. 1 shows a partial view of a vehicle interior with an inventive multifunction control means comprising means disposed in the instrument panel 10 display device 11 and an operating device 12 in the center console 13.
Die Bedieneinrichtung 12 weist ein aus der Konsolenoberseite ragendes bidirektionales Drehelement 14 auf, das gegebenenfalls Raststellungen zur haptischen Funktions- und Funktionsgruppenauswahl aufweist, die in Abhängigkeit der in einer Menüebene vorhandenen Funktionsgruppen und/oder Funktionen programmierbar sein können.The operating device 12 has a bidirectional rotary element 14 protruding from the top of the console, which may have latching positions for haptic function and function group selection, which can be programmable as a function of the function groups and / or functions present in a menu level.
Das als Drehbetätigungsrad ausgestattete Drehelement 14 ist dabei liegend in Bezug auf die Mittelkonsole 13 bzw. die Konsolenoberseite angeordnet, so daß die Drehachse die Drehbetätigungswalze bzw. des Drehelementes 4 in der Ebene, also horizontal liegt. Durch die liegende Drehachse mit einer Orientierung, daß das bidirektionale Drehelement 14 in den Richtungen parallel bzw. antiparallel zur Mittelkonsolenlängsachse S drehbar, bzw. sozusagen rollbar ist, ergibt sich eine günstige Drehbetätigbarkeit des bidirektionalen Drehelementes 14. Die Drehbetätigungswalze bzw. das bidirektionale Drehelement 14 ist mit seiner Drehachse vorteilhafterweise so eingebaut, daß diese unterhalb der Oberfläche der Mittelkonsole 13 angeordnet ist. Das heißt, die Drehbetätigungswalze kann ein absolut rund ausgeführtes Element sein, dessen Drehachse und Drehachsenaufhängung unterhalb der Bedienoberfläche bzw. der Bedienebene verborgen anzuordnen ist.The rotary element 14 equipped as a rotary actuating wheel is arranged lying with respect to the center console 13 or the upper side of the console, so that the axis of rotation of the rotary actuating roller or of the rotary element 4 lies in the plane, that is to say horizontally. The horizontal axis of rotation with an orientation such that the bidirectional rotary element 14 can be rotated in the directions parallel or antiparallel to the longitudinal axis S of the central console, or can be rolled, so to speak, results in a favorable rotary actuation of the bidirectional rotary element 14 . The rotary actuating roller or the bidirectional rotary element 14 is advantageously installed with its axis of rotation such that it is arranged below the surface of the center console 13 . This means that the rotary actuating roller can be an absolutely round element, the axis of rotation and the axis of rotation of which are to be arranged hidden below the user interface or the operating level.
Seitlich von der Drehbetätigungswalze 10 ist eine zweite Bedieneinrichtung 15 und 16 angeordnet. Die zweite Bedieneinrichtung 15, 16 kann beispielsweise aus zwei parallel zur Drehachse des bidirektionalen Drehelementes 14 betätigbaren Tastenelementen bestehen.A second operating device 15 and 16 is arranged to the side of the rotary actuating roller 10 . The second operating device 15 , 16 can consist, for example, of two button elements which can be actuated parallel to the axis of rotation of the bidirectional rotary element 14 .
Eine andere Möglichkeit weist eine einteilige oder zweiteilige Bedieneinrichtung 15, 16 auf, die zumindest in dem im wesentlichen als Ring oder mit ringförmigen Flanken ausgebildetes bidirektionales Drehelement 14 angeordnet ist.Another possibility has a one-part or two-part operating device 15 , 16 , which is arranged at least in the bidirectional rotary element 14 which is essentially designed as a ring or with annular flanks.
Fig. 3 zeigt ein Beispiel für die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Multifunktions-Bedieneinrichtung. Wie bereits ausgeführt, besteht im wesentlichen die Multifunktions-Bedieneinrichtung aus dem bidirektionalen Drehelement 14 und der zweiten Bedieneinrichtung 15, 16, welche mit der örtlich getrennt in der Armaturentafel 10 angeordneten Anzeigeeinrichtung 11 zusammenwirken. FIG. 3 is an example of how the invention is multi-function operator. As already stated, the multifunction control device essentially consists of the bidirectional rotary element 14 and the second control device 15 , 16 , which interact with the display device 11 , which is arranged separately in the dashboard 10 .
Nach dem Einschalten der Multifunktions-Bedieneinrichtung erscheint auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung 11 ein Hauptmenü 21 mit einer Anzahl von Funktionsgruppen 22 bzw. angeschlossener Geräte. Im Ausführungsbeispiel sind dies ein oder mehrere Audio-Einrichtungen, eine Telefonanlage, eine Navigationseinrichtung, ein Organisationsprogramm sowie eine Klimaanlage. Über die Drehbewegung des bidirektionalen Drehelementes 14 in Richtung A springt die Auswahlmarkierung 23 von der Funktionsgruppe 22 "AUDIO" zur Funktionsgruppe "TELEFON". Nach Ablauf einer vordefinierten Zeitspanne, die sicherstellt, daß die Funktionsgruppe "TELEFON" auch tatsächlich die gewünschte Funktionsgruppe 22 ist, wird diese ausgewählt und auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung 11 wird das Telefonmenü 24 dargestellt (Schritt 1). Über die Betätigung des Drehelementes 14 in Richtung 1 oder B kann zwischen verschiedenen Funktionen 25 ausgewählt werden. Hier wurde über Schritt 2 das Telefonbuch ausgewählt. Durch Betätigung des Bedienelementes 15 in Richtung D springt die Anzeige der Anzeigeeinrichtung 11 in das Untermenü 26 des Telefonbuches (Schritt 3). Hier kann wiederum durch die Drehbewegung des Drehelementes 14 eine Funktion 25 ausgewählt werden (Schritt 4). Bei dieser Funktion handelt es sich um eine kostenpflichtige Funktion, so daß die Aktivierung erst durch eine Betätigung des Bedienelementes 15 in Richtung D erfolgt (Schritt Sa). Über die Betätigung des Bedienelementes C gelangt der Nutzer wieder in eine übergeordnete Menüebene. Über die erfinderische bildliche Darstellung 27 und 28 kann ein Nutzer sofort erkennen, wieviele übergeordnete Menüebenen existieren. Der Pfeil 29 zeigt an, daß unter und/oder über der gewählten Menüebene zumindest für diese Funktion oder Funktionsgruppe weitere Menüebenen existieren.After switching on the multifunction control device, a main menu 21 appears on the display device 11 with a number of function groups 22 or connected devices. In the exemplary embodiment, these are one or more audio devices, a telephone system, a navigation device, an organizational program and an air conditioning system. The selection marking 23 jumps from the function group 22 "AUDIO" to the function group "TELEPHONE" via the rotary movement of the bidirectional rotary element 14 in direction A. After a predefined period of time, which ensures that the "TELEPHONE" function group is actually the desired function group 22 , this is selected and the telephone menu 24 is shown on the display device 11 (step 1 ). Various functions 25 can be selected by actuating the rotating element 14 in the direction 1 or B. Here the phone book was selected via step 2 . By actuating the control element 15 in direction D, the display of the display device 11 jumps into the submenu 26 of the telephone book (step 3 ). Here again, a function 25 can be selected by the rotary movement of the rotary element 14 (step 4 ). This function is a fee-based function, so that the activation takes place only by actuating the control element 15 in direction D (step Sa). By actuating control element C, the user returns to a higher-level menu level. Via the inventive pictorial representation 27 and 28 , a user can immediately see how many higher-level menu levels exist. The arrow 29 indicates that there are further menu levels below and / or above the selected menu level, at least for this function or function group.
Das in Fig. 3 gezeigte Audiomenü 30 umfaßt die Bedienung mehrerer Audiogeräte, wie Radio, CD-Wechsler, TV und einen MP3-Player. Zusätzlich ist noch eine Funktion "AUDIO-GERÄTE-AUS" vorgesehen. Über die Drehbetätigung in Richtung A oder B des Drehelementes 14 wird auch hier wiederum eine Funktionsgruppe 22 an- und ausgewählt, die Auswahlmarkierung 29 steht auf der ausgewählten Funktionsgruppe. In Fig. 3 ist es der CD-Wechsler.The audio menu 30 shown in FIG. 3 comprises the operation of several audio devices, such as radio, CD changer, TV and an MP3 player. In addition, a function "AUDIO DEVICE OFF" is provided. Via the rotary actuation in the direction A or B of the rotary element 14 , a functional group 22 is again selected and selected, the selection marking 29 is on the selected functional group. In Fig. 3 it is the CD changer.
Der erschienene Pfeil 29 innerhalb der Auswahlmarkierung zeigt an, daß zu der Funktionsgruppe weitere Untermenüs existieren, die durch die Betätigung des Bedienelementes 15 in Richtung D angewählt werden können.The arrow 29 that appears within the selection marker indicates that there are further submenus for the function group that can be selected in the D direction by actuating the control element 15 .
Der Balken 27 auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung zeigt an, daß das Audiomenü 30 nicht das Hauptmenü der Multifunktions-Bedieneinrichtung ist. Zum Hauptmenü kann mit Hilfe der Betätigung des Bedienelementes 16 in Richtung C gesprungen werden.The bar 27 on the display device indicates that the audio menu 30 is not the main menu of the multifunction control device. You can jump to the main menu in the direction of C using the control element 16 .
Wird nun das Bedienelement 15 in Richtung D betätigt, springt die Anzeige in die darunterliegende Menüebene, es erscheint auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung 11 das Menübild 31. Wesentlich und erfinderisch ist hierbei, daß über die Anzeigebalken 27, 28 angegeben wird, in welcher Menüebene sich der Nutzer befindet. In Fig. 3 ist es die dritte Menüebene, es existieren zwei übergeordnete Ebenen. Die Anzahl der Balken zeigt damit an, wieviel übergeordnete Menüebenen existieren. Der Pfeil 32 zeigt an, daß nicht die Funktionen 25 dieser Menüebene auf der Anzeigevorrichtung 11 momentan dargestellt sind. Durch die Drehbetätigung des Drehelementes 14 werden diese Funktionen in die Anzeige geholt.If control element 15 is now actuated in direction D, the display jumps to the menu level below, menu image 31 appears on display device 11 . It is essential and inventive that the display bars 27 , 28 indicate in which menu level the user is. In Fig. 3 it is the third menu level, there are two higher levels. The number of bars shows how many higher-level menu levels exist. The arrow 32 indicates that the functions 25 of this menu level are not currently shown on the display device 11 . By turning the rotary element 14 , these functions are brought into the display.
Auch hier läßt sich wiederum durch die Drehbewegung des Drehelementes 14 in Richtung A oder B eine Funktion, hier speziell eine vorhandene CD an- und auswählen (Schritt 2) und mit Hilfe der Betätigung des Bedienelementes 14 in Richtung D wird wiederum in das darunterliegende Menü 32 gesprungen (Schritt 3), dessen Ebene jetzt durch die Balken 27, 28 und 33 angezeigt wird.Here, too, a function, in this case specifically an existing CD, can be selected and selected by the rotary movement of the rotary element 14 in direction A or B (step 2 ) and with the aid of the actuation of the control element 14 in direction D, the menu 32 below is again accessed jumped (step 3 ), whose level is now indicated by the bars 27 , 28 and 33 .
Bei An- und Auswahl eines Titels (Funktion) 25 durch die Drehbetätigung des Drehelementes 14 wird der CD-Wechsler zugleich aktiviert und der Nutzer kann diesen Titel sofort hören. Eine ähnliche Bedienung kann auch bei der Auswahl von Radiosendern, Navigationszielen, angekommenen e-mails etc. erfolgen.When a title (function) 25 is selected and selected by turning the rotary element 14 , the CD changer is activated at the same time and the user can hear this title immediately. A similar operation can also be carried out when selecting radio stations, navigation destinations, incoming e-mails etc.
