Description

i DK 168720 B1in DK 168720 B1

Opfindelsen angår en kontaktindretning af den i krav l's indledning angivne art.The invention relates to a contact device of the kind specified in the preamble of claim 1.

Kontaktindretninger af den nævnte art anvendes i de såkaldte laminerede omskiftere. I én kendt omskifter af 5 denne art udgøres det bevægelige kontaktorgan af et tyndt metallag, der er direkte forbundet med en bøjelig plastplade, f.eks. i form af et trykt kredsløb. I en anden kendt omskifter af denne art udgøres det bevægelige kontaktorgan af en løs, bistabil metalfjeder eller membran. Ved visse anvendel-10 ser, f.eks. i omskiftere i høreapparater, skal mindst ét bevægeligt kontaktorgan til stadighed være aktiveret til berøring med det tilhørende stationære kontaktorgan, og af denne årsag er førstnævnte løsning uanvendelig, eftersom den bøjelige plastplade, hvormed det bevægelige kontaktorgan 15 er fast forbundet, under lang tids påvirkning giver efter og taber sin elasticitet, så den ikke længere er i stand til at åbne den pågældende kontakt. Den sidstnævnte af de to løsninger kræver så meget plads, at den ikke kan anvendes i et høreapparat, især ikke et høreapparat af "i øret"-typen.Contact devices of the kind mentioned are used in the so-called laminated switches. In one known switch of this kind, the movable contact member is constituted by a thin metal layer directly connected to a flexible plastic sheet, e.g. in the form of a printed circuit. In another known switch of this kind, the movable contact member is a loose, bistable metal spring or diaphragm. In certain applications, e.g. in switches in hearing aids, at least one movable contact member must always be activated for contact with the associated stationary contact member, and for this reason the former solution is inapplicable, since the flexible plastic plate with which the movable contact member 15 is firmly connected gives long-term influence after and loses its elasticity so that it is no longer able to open that contact. The latter of the two solutions requires so much space that it cannot be used in a hearing aid, especially not an "in-ear" type hearing aid.

20 Det er på denne baggrund opfindelsens formål at anvise udformningen af en kontakt indretning af den indledningsvis nævnte art, der ikke er behæftet med de ovenfor omtalte ulemper, og som navnlig er anvendelig i apparater, især høreapparater, hvor den til rådighed stående plads er meget 25 lille, og dette formål opnås ved en kontaktindretning, som ifølge opfindelsen tillige udviser det træk, der er angivet i den kendetegnende del af krav 1. Herved opnås, at der, selv efter lang tids aktivering af det bevægelige kontaktorgan, til stadighed står en elastisk kraft til rådighed, når 30 kontakten skal åbnes ved, at det bevægelige kontaktorgan gives lejlighed til at bøje sig tilbage til afbrydestillingen.Accordingly, it is the object of the invention to provide the design of a contact device of the kind mentioned above, which does not suffer from the above-mentioned drawbacks, and which is particularly useful in hearing aids, in particular hearing aids, where the available space is very 25, and this object is achieved by a contact device which according to the invention also exhibits the feature set forth in the characterizing part of claim 1. Hereby, even after long activation of the movable contact means, a constant resilient force is available when the contact is to be opened by giving the movable contact member an opportunity to bend back to the switching position.

Opfindelsen angår også et høreapparat med én eller flere omskiftere, og dette høreapparat er som angivet i 35 krav 7 ejendommeligt ved, at mindst én omskifter omfatter eller udgøres af en kontaktindretning ifølge opfindelsen.The invention also relates to a hearing aid with one or more switches, and this hearing aid is characterized in that claim at least one switch comprises or comprises a contact device according to the invention.

Hensigtsmæssige udførelsesformer for kontaktindretningen ifølge opfindelsen, hvis virkninger vil fremgå af den efterfølgende specielle del af nærværende beskrivelse, er angivet i krav 2-6.Suitable embodiments of the contact device according to the invention, the effects of which will become apparent from the following specific part of the specification, are set out in claims 2-6.

5 Opfindelsen skal i det følgende forklares nærmere under henvisning til det på tegningen viste udførelseseksempel på en kontaktindretning ifølge opfindelsen, idet fig. 1 er en perspektivisk sprængskitse af kontaktindretningen, 10 fig. 2 ligeledes i perspektiv viser kontaktindretnin gen ifølge fig. 1 i samlet tilstand, fig. 3 og 4 er skematiske snit i større målestok gennem kontaktindretningen ifølge fig. 1 og 2 og viser, hvorledes det bevægelige kontaktorgan ved hjælp af en ydre 15 kraft kan bevæges til kontaktsluttende berøring med det stationære kontaktorgan, fig. 5 er et skematisk snit efter linien V-V i fig.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to the exemplary embodiment of a contact device according to the invention shown in the drawing. 1 is a perspective exploded view of the contact device; FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the contact device of FIG. 1 in overall condition; FIG. 3 and 4 are schematic sections on a larger scale through the contact device of FIG. 1 and 2 showing how the movable contact means can be moved by means of an external force for contact closing contact with the stationary contact member; 5 is a schematic section along the line V-V in FIG.

6 og viser en omskifter, der omfatter en kontaktindretning ifølge opfindelsen, og 20 fig. 6 viser den i fig 5 viste omskifter, set i det drejelige aktiveringsorgans aksialretning.6 shows a switch comprising a contact device according to the invention, and FIG. 6 shows the switch shown in Fig. 5, seen in the axial direction of the rotary actuator.

Den i fig. 1 og 2 viste kontakt indretning, der, som det vil fremgå af det følgende, er bestemt til at indgå i en omskifter, består som vist i fig. 1, regnet nedefra, af 25 - en bundplade 5 bestående af en plastplade 2, hvortil ved hjælp af lim 4 er fastgjort et antal stationære kontaktorganer 1 af metal, - en afstandplade 6, der består af en plastplade 7, der har lim 8 på begge sider, og hvori der er udformet et antal 30 gennemgående åbninger 14 ud for visse dele af de stationære kontaktorganer 1 på bundpladen 5, - to metalpladedele 3, udformet i ét med et antal fjedrende flige 3a beliggende ud for de gennemgående åbninger 14, og - en dækplade 9 bestående af en plastplade 10 og lim 11, 35 idet plastpladen 10 til forskel fra de ovenfor omtalte plastplader 2 og 7 er bøjelig, således som det vil fremgå DK 168720 B1 3 af det følgende.The FIG. 1 and 2, which, as will become apparent from the following, are intended to be included in a switch, consist as shown in FIG. 1, bottom view, of 25 - a base plate 5 consisting of a plastic plate 2 to which a number of stationary metal contact means 1 are attached by means of glue - a spacer plate 6 consisting of a plastic plate 7 having glue 8 on it both sides, and wherein a plurality of 30 through openings 14 are formed adjacent to certain portions of the stationary contact members 1 on the base plate 5, - two metal plate parts 3, formed integrally with a plurality of resilient tabs 3a located adjacent the through openings 14, and - a cover plate 9 consisting of a plastic plate 10 and glue 11, 35 in which the plastic plate 10, unlike the above mentioned plastic plates 2 and 7, is flexible, as will be seen from DK 168720 B1 3 below.

Når de i fig. i viste og ovenfor omtalte dele er samlet, således som det er vist i fig. 2, holdes delene sammen af de forskellige lag lim 4, 8 og 11 på en sådan 5 måde, at de gennemgående åbninger 14 danner hermetisk lukkede kamre. Disse kamre kan fyldes med en korrosionshæmmende luftart eller luftartsblanding, f.eks. ved at udføre det sidste trin af samlearbejdet i en hertil svarende atmosfære.When in FIG. in the parts shown and mentioned above are assembled as shown in fig. 2, the parts are held together by the different layers of glue 4, 8 and 11 in such a way that the through openings 14 form hermetically sealed chambers. These chambers can be filled with a corrosion-inhibiting gaseous or gaseous mixture, e.g. by performing the final step of the assembly work in a corresponding atmosphere.

Fig. 3 og 4, der som nævnt udgør skematiske delsnit 10 af den i fig. 2 viste kontakt indretning, viser hvorledes den bøjelige plastplade 10 giver efter for en ydre kraft P og tillader denne at trykke den fjedrende flig 3a til berøring med det stationære kontaktorgan 1. Eftersom fligen 3a består af elastisk materiale og under den i fig. 4 viste 15 udbøjning ikke overskrider sin elasticitetsgrænse, vil den, selv efter længere tids udøvelse af kraften P, altid gå tilbage til den i fig. 3 viste stilling. Eftersom kammeret 14 er fuldstændigt lukket mod omgivelserne, vil kontaktfunktionen ikke kunne påvirkes udefra ad kemisk vej, dvs., at 20 kontaktorganerne 3a og 1 er beskyttet mod luftens oxygen og alle de stoffer, som navnlig et Mi øret "-høreapparat kan blive udsat for, såsom sved, hudfedt og bestanddele af forskellige kosmetiske præparater, herunder hudcreme, hårvand, barbersprit m.v.FIG. 3 and 4 which, as mentioned, constitute schematic section 10 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 shows how the flexible plastic plate 10 gives off an external force P and allows it to press the resilient tab 3a into contact with the stationary contact member 1. Since the tab 3a consists of elastic material and below the one shown in FIG. 4 does not exceed its limit of elasticity, even after prolonged application of the force P, it will always return to that of FIG. 3. Since the chamber 14 is completely closed to the environment, the contact function cannot be affected from the outside by chemical means, i.e., the contact means 3a and 1 are protected against the oxygen of the air and all the substances to which in particular a Mi ear "hearing aid can be exposed. such as sweat, skin grease and constituents of various cosmetic preparations, including skin cream, hair water, shaving cream, etc.

25 Den i fig. 5 og 6 viste omskifter, der omfatter en kontaktindretning 1-11 som beskrevet ovenfor under henvisning til fig. 1-4, omfatter et hus 21 med en midterskillevæg 15, idet kontaktindretningen - eller snarere dennes centrale dele - er anbragt i rummet under midterskillevæggen 15 og 30 holdt på plads af et dæksel 22, medens der i rummet over midterskillevæggen er anbragt et aktiveringsorgan 16, der er drejeligt lejret om en central lejetap 23, der er fastgjort i midterskillevæggen 15. I de gennemgående åbninger i midterskillevæggen 15 er der glidende lejret et tilsvarende 35 antal kugler 12, hvis beliggenhed svarer til beliggenheden af de i fig. 1 viste, gennemgående åbninger 14, således at DK 168720 B1 4 den i fig. 4 viste kraft 10 kan udøves ved hjælp af disse kugler. Aktiveringsorganet 16 bærer én eller flere bladfjedre 17, hvis spændkraft i den til venstre i fig. 5 viste stilling er tilstrækkelig til at presse den fjedrende flig 3a ned 5 til den i fig. 4 viste stilling, hvor den berører det stationære kontaktorgan 1.The embodiment of FIG. 5 and 6, comprising a contact device 1-11 as described above with reference to FIG. 1-4, comprises a housing 21 having a central partition 15, the contact device - or rather its central parts - being arranged in the space below the middle partition wall 15 and 30 held in place by a cover 22, while an activating means 16 is arranged in the space above the middle partition wall. pivotally mounted about a central bearing pin 23 secured to the center partition 15. In the through openings of the middle partition 15 there is slidingly mounted a corresponding number of balls 12, the position of which corresponds to the position of the one shown in FIG. 1, through openings 14, so that the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 can be exerted by these balls. The actuator 16 carries one or more leaf springs 17, the tensioning force of which is shown on the left in FIG. 5 is sufficient to push the resilient tab 3a down 5 to that of FIG. 4, where it touches the stationary contact member 1.

Fig. 6 viser, hvorledes det drejelige aktiveringsorgan 16 er udstyret med et arreteringsfremspring 19, som på i princippet kendt måde samvirker med en arreteringsfjeder 10 18, der er fastgjort til huset 21.FIG. 6 shows how the rotatable actuator 16 is provided with an arresting protrusion 19 which cooperates in a known manner in principle with an arresting spring 10 18 attached to the housing 21.

Som det vil kunne ses ved at sammenholde fig. l og 2, rager dele af de stationære kontaktorganer 1 og af metalpladedelene 3 ud af den i fig. 2 viste "stabel", idet dele af overliggende plader er fjernet, medens de tilsvarende 15 dele af underliggende plader ikke er fjernet, således at de støtter de udragende kontakt stykker, f.eks. med henblik på at forbinde disse med dertil indrettede fatninger eller 1oddefligerækker.As can be seen by comparing FIG. 1 and 2, portions of the stationary contact members 1 and of the metal plate parts 3 protrude from the one shown in FIG. 2, parts of overlying plates are removed while the corresponding 15 parts of underlying plates are not removed so as to support the protruding contact pieces, e.g. with a view to connecting these with their sockets or 1-point flange rows.
