BeschreibungDescription

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren, das Lenkrad für Kraftwagen beim Anfahren in der kalten Jahreszeit kurzzeitig zu erwärmen. Dies geschieht mit der bordeigenen Stromversorgung.The invention relates to a method for briefly heating the steering wheel of a motor vehicle when starting off in the cold season. This is done using the on-board power supply.

Bisher wurden zum Wärmeschutz die Lenkräder mit Leder oder Pelz überzogen, diese Maßnahmen stellten jedoch keine ausreichende Wärmequelle dar.Previously, steering wheels were covered with leather or fur to protect against heat, but these measures did not provide a sufficient source of heat.

Bei der Herstellung eines aufwärmbaren Lenkrades wird unter die Ummantelung des Lenkradkranzes ( 1 ) eine schnell ansprechende, feinmaschige und gut verformbare Widerstandsheizfolie bzw. ein Widerstandsnetz eingelegt. When manufacturing a heated steering wheel, a fast-responding, fine-meshed and easily deformable resistance heating foil or resistance net is inserted under the cover of the steering wheel rim ( 1 ).

Über einen am oberen Rand des Prallschutzkissens ( 2 ) angeordneten roten Druckschalter ( 3 ) wird das integrierte Heizelement mit Bordstrom versorgt. Maximal 10 Sekunden nach Einschalten ist die erste Wärme durch die Ummantelung spürbar. Nach weiteren maximal 10 Sekunden ist eine ausreichend hohe Temperatur erreicht, die durch die Speicherwirkung des äußeren Lenkradmaterials mehrere Minuten angenehm warm gehalten werden kann.The integrated heating element is supplied with on-board power via a red push button (3) located on the upper edge of the impact protection cushion (2). The first heat can be felt through the casing a maximum of 10 seconds after switching it on. After a maximum of another 10 seconds, a sufficiently high temperature is reached, which can be kept pleasantly warm for several minutes thanks to the storage effect of the outer steering wheel material.

Mit einer temperaturgesteuerten automatischen Stromabschaltung wird der Heizvorgang beendet.The heating process is terminated with a temperature-controlled automatic power cut-off.

Vor Überhitzung ( im Störfall ) schützt eine entsprechend angepaßte Schmelzsicherung.An appropriately adapted fuse protects against overheating (in the event of a fault).

Die Erfindung der Lenkradheizung ist sehr zweckmäßig und sollte serienmäßig in jedes Kraftfahrzeug eingebaut werden.The invention of steering wheel heating is very practical and should be installed as standard in every motor vehicle.

Begründung: Die häufigsten Autofahrten finden zwischen Wohnung und Arbeitsplatz statt. Die Fahrzeit liegt meist zwischen 15 und 30 Minuten. Finger bzw. Hände sind in dieser Zeit - trotz laufender Warmluftheizung durchgefroren. Die anfängliche Arbeitsleistung z.B. an Schreibmaschine oder Computer ist wesentlich beeinträchtigt.
Außerdem bietet eine Lenkradheizung einen angenehmen Komfort.
Reason: The most frequent car journeys are between home and work. The journey time is usually between 15 and 30 minutes. During this time, fingers and hands are frozen solid - despite the warm air heating being on. Initial work performance, eg on a typewriter or computer, is significantly impaired.
In addition, a heated steering wheel offers pleasant comfort.
