Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The The present invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
Es sind beheizbare Lenkräder für Kraftfahrzeuge bekannt, die elektrische Heizelemente aufweisen, bspw. in Form von Heizdrähten oder -litzen. Hierbei sind meist elektrische Heizdrähte auf einer elastischen Polsterschicht aufgebracht, die einen starren Lenkradkranz umgibt. Diese Polsterschicht ist von einer Deckschicht bzw. einer äußeren Griffschicht ummantelt, die bspw. aus Leder oder einem anderen geeigneten Material bestehen kann. Damit die elektrische Heizung möglichst energieeffizient betrieben werden kann, ist die Deckschicht relativ dünn, so dass eine gute Wärmeübertragung ermöglicht ist. Allerdings können sich die Heizdrähte sichtbar bzw. fühlbar unter der Deckschicht abzeichnen, was für den Fahrer störend sein kann.It are heated steering wheels for motor vehicles known, having electrical heating elements, for example. In the form of heating wires or strands. These are usually electrical heating wires an elastic cushion layer applied, which is a rigid Steering wheel rim surrounds. This cushion layer is of a cover layer or an outer grip layer encased, for example, made of leather or other suitable material can exist. So that the electric heater operated as energy efficient as possible Can be, the top layer is relatively thin, allowing a good heat transfer allows is. However, you can the heating wires visible or felt underneath the top layer, which will be annoying for the driver can.
Weiterhin sind sog. textile Heizelemente bekannt, die eine flächige Textilschicht mit einer Vielzahl von darin eingewebten oder eingearbeiteten Metall- oder Carbonleitern aufweisen. Ein solches Textilelement wird normalerweise unterhalb eines Bezugstoffes aus Leder oder Stoff eines Lenkrads angeordnet. Dazwischen oder darunter können weitere Polsterschichten aus dünnem Schaumstoff angeordnet sein. Unterhalb dieser Polsterschichten befindet sich normalerweise ein geschäumter Lenkradgriff mit dem Metallkern des Lenkradkranzes.Farther So-called textile heating elements are known which form a flat textile layer with a multitude of metal woven or incorporated therein or carbon conductors. Such a textile element will normally below a fabric made of leather or fabric of a steering wheel arranged. In between or underneath can be more layers of upholstery from thin Foam can be arranged. Located below these cushioning layers usually a foamed Steering wheel handle with the metal core of the steering wheel rim.
Eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, ein Verkleidungs- und/oder Polsterelement zur Verfügung zu stellen, das die Nachteile des geschilderten Standes der Technik vermeidet, dabei einfach aufgebaut ist und sich einfach und kostengünstig herstellen lässt.A The object of the present invention is to provide a cladding and / or upholstery element available to put that the disadvantages of the described prior art avoids, is simple in construction and easy and inexpensive to produce leaves.
Diese Aufgabe wird mit dem Gegenstand der unabhängigen Patentansprüche gelöst. Merkmale vorteilhafter Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen.These The object is achieved with the subject matter of the independent claims. Features more advantageous Further developments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims.
Das elastische Volumenelement kann insbesondere eine Schaumstruktur aufweisen, die in einem Umgebungsbereich um die muldenartige Aufnahme für das draht- oder bandartige Heizelement leicht verdichtet ist, so dass das Heizelement innerhalb des Volumenelements angeordnet ist. Auf diese Weise kann ein relativ homogenes Polster mit einer flexiblen Schaumstruktur zur Verfügung gestellt werden, in das auf einfache Weise Heizdrähte oder dergleichen integrierbar sind, ohne dass diese sich unterhalb eines Bezugstoffes abzeichnen können. Die Heizelemente können insbesondere mäanderförmig angeordnete Heizdrähte oder dergleichen sein.The elastic volume element may in particular be a foam structure having in an environment around the trough-like receptacle for the wire or ribbon-like heating element is slightly compressed, so that the heating element is disposed within the volume element. On This way, a relatively homogeneous cushion with a flexible Foam structure available be placed in the easy way heating wires or the like can be integrated without these being below a Can sign off reference material. The heating elements can in particular meandering arranged heating wires or the like.
Das Volumenelement kann Teil eines Lenkradbezugs, eines Sitzbezugs, eines heizbaren Verkleidungselements im Fahrzeuginnenraum o. dgl. sein. So ist bspw. eine fühlund/oder sichtbare Abzeichnung von mäanderförmig unterhalb eines Lenkradbezugs verlegten Heizdrähten aus optischen und/oder haptischen Gründen unerwünscht. Die Qualitätsanmutung des Lenkrads kann dadurch erhöht werden, dass die elektrische Heizung nahezu unsichtbar bleibt. Gleiches kann für andere Verkleidungselemente im Fahrzeug gelten, bspw. für elektrisch beheizbare Türverkleidungen. Bei allen diesen Verkleidungs- und/oder Polsterelementen existiert ein Zielkonflikt zwischen einer möglicht hohen Heizleistung, die mit einem möglichst geringen Energieeinsatz realisiert werden soll. Insbesondere beim Einsatz derartiger Heizelemente als Fahrzeugheizungen steht ein niedriger Energieverbrauch im Vordergrund. Aus diesem Grund müssen die Heizelemente in möglichst oberflächennahen Bereichen verlegt werden, wo sie sich jedoch sichtbar abzeichnen können. Dies kann mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Volumenelement auf effektive Weise vermieden werden, ohne dass hiermit eine Verschlechterung der Heizleistung verbunden ist.The Volume element may be part of a steering wheel cover, a seat cover, a heatable cladding element in the vehicle interior o. The like. Be. So is, for example, a feeling and / or visible sign of meandering below a steering wheel cover laid heating wires of optical and / or haptic reasons undesirable. The quality impression of the steering wheel can thereby increased be that the electric heater remains almost invisible. The same can for Other cladding elements in the vehicle apply, for example, for electrical heated door panels. For all these trim and / or Upholstery elements, there is a conflict of goals between a high possible Heating power, with a possible low energy use to be realized. Especially when used such heating elements as vehicle heaters is a lower Energy consumption in the foreground. For this reason, the Heating elements in as possible shallow Areas where they can be clearly visible. This can with the volume element according to the invention can be avoided effectively, without causing any deterioration the heating power is connected.
Zur Herstellung eines elastischen Verkleidungs- und/oder Polsterelements kann vorgesehen sein, dass das elektrische Heizelement auf die Oberfläche des Elements aufgelegt und dieses anschließend zumindest im Umgebungsbereich um den Heizdraht bzw. die Heizlitze verdichtet wird. Die Verdichtung der Schaumstruktur zur Einbettung des Heizelements kann bspw. durch Wärmeeinwirkung und/oder Druckbeaufschlagung erfolgen. Hierzu kann das Verkleidungs- und/oder Polsterelement nach dem Verlegen bzw. Aufbringen des Heizelements gewalzt, gedrückt und/oder erwärmt werden.to Production of an elastic covering and / or upholstery element can be provided that the electric heating element to the surface of Elements launched and this at least in the surrounding area is compressed to the heating wire or Heizlitze. The compression the foam structure for embedding the heating element can, for example. By the effect of heat and / or pressurization. For this, the cladding and / or cushioning element after laying or applying the heating element rolled, pressed and / or heated become.
Der elektrische Heizleiter kann auf der Schaustofffläche des Polsterelements entsprechend den gewünschten Verlegekonturen aufgelegt und dann unter Verdichtung des Schaumstoffes in diesen eingebettet werden. Gegebenenfalls kann es vorteilhaft sein, den Heizleiter zusätzlich noch mit einem Kleber am Polsterelement zu fixieren.Of the electrical heating conductor can on the Schaustofffläche of the cushion element according to the desired Laying out contours and then under compression of the foam be embedded in these. Optionally, it may be advantageous be, the heating conductor in addition still with an adhesive to the upholstery element to fix.
Eine vorteilhafte Variante der Erfindung sieht vor, dass der zu verlegende Heizdraht mit einer umhüllenden Kleberschicht versehen ist, die unter Temperatur aushärtet. Hierzu kann der Heizdraht zunächst auf dem Polster verlegt und anschließend der Heizdraht erwärmt werden, bspw. durch Bestromen des Heizelements, wodurch sich dieses auf eine Temperatur erwärmt, bei welcher der Kleber aushärtet.A advantageous variant of the invention provides that the to be laid Heating wire with an enveloping Adhesive layer is provided, which cures under temperature. For this can the heating wire first laid on the upholstery and then the heating wire is heated, For example, by energizing the heating element, causing this on a temperature is heated, at which the glue cures.
