Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch panel for household appliances with a retractable rotary knob according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to improve the retractable rotary knob of the known type by means of an optical display device in order to enable the operator to be able to recognize or read the setting marking characters even in the case of poor lighting of the room or impaired visual acuity.
  • the invention provides a switch panel with a retractable rotary knob with illuminated setting markings, which is clear even in poor lighting conditions and poor visual acuity Allows recognition of the setting markings on the shading panel. Furthermore, this switch panel is characterized by a uniform light distribution in the entire area of the setting markings surrounding the retractable rotary knob. A particular advantage is also to be seen in the fact that an additional optical operating display can be omitted, since the start-up of the consumer in question is also signaled by the lighting up of the marking signs.
  • the diaphragm plate 1 designates the front plate of a switch panel for a household appliance, which in the illustrated embodiment is made of a transparent material, e.g. Glass.
  • the diaphragm plate 1 is coated from the rear or covered with a mask so that a transparent ring area 3 remains only around a toggle opening 2.
  • the toggle opening 2 in the diaphragm plate 1 is occupied by a retractable rotary toggle 4, which is designed as a hollow cylinder and which, in its lowered position (rest position), is approximately aligned with the front of the diaphragm plate 1.
  • the rotary toggle 4 is slidably or displaceably on a toggle shaft 5, which is brought into operative connection with a switching or control device 7 via a plug connection axis 6.
  • a compression spring 8 which is supported against the end of the toggle shaft 5 which ends in the rotary toggle and by means of which by briefly tapping the rotary toggle 1 it is pressed out of its recessed detent head into the extended operating position, in which the switch - Or control device 7 can be set.
  • the reflector body 9 has an open annular reflector chamber 11, which is formed by molding, so that the reflector body and the reflector chamber are formed in one piece.
  • the open side of the reflector chamber 11 directed towards the rear of the diaphragm plate 1 is covered with a translucent or translucent ring body 12, which preferably consists of a prismatic glass or a glass ring with a prismatic surface.
  • a lighting device is accommodated, which consists of several individual glow lamps 13 distributed around its circumference.
  • the individual glow lamps 13 are an integral part of an insulating ring body 14 made of hard paper or the like, which is held on the back of the reflector chamber 11 by a snap connection 15.
  • the snap connection 15 consists of a catch, nose or the like formed on the edge of the open reflector chamber 11, behind which the insulating ring body 14 is snapped.
  • a stop centering 16 for the insulating ring body 14 is formed in the wall of the reflector body 9.
  • the glow lamps 12 are arranged vertically projecting from the insulating ring body 14. In the interior of the reflector chamber 11, a fixing lug 17 is formed to secure the glow lamps 13.
  • the insulating body 14 also carries the electrical circuit for the glow lamps, which is designed in a known manner as a printed circuit.
  • a coupling / indicator switch position indicator 18 made of translucent material, the ring-like marking surface 19 of which is arranged between the translucent ring body 12 of the reflector chamber 11 and the rear of the diaphragm plate 1 is.
  • a coupling / indicator switch position indicator 18 made of translucent material, the ring-like marking surface 19 of which is arranged between the translucent ring body 12 of the reflector chamber 11 and the rear of the diaphragm plate 1 is.
  • Prior to the marking area 17 is s ch the transparent rings area 3 of the visor panel 1.
  • the switch f ellungsan Adjuster 18 is also formed cylindrical or pot-shaped and designed so that the reflector body 9 that receives with play in itself.
