Description

Technisches Gebiet:Technical field:

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Hängetaster mit einem Gehäuse, das Tasten und Schalter zum Steuern von Hebezeugen und/oder Krananlagen aufweist, mit einer Steuerleitung, über die das Gehäuse mit dem Hebezeug verbunden ist, und mit einem Stielgriff, der mit dem Gehäuse verbunden ist.The invention relates to a pendant control with a housing, which has buttons and switches for controlling hoists and / or crane systems, with a control line, via which the housing is connected to the hoist, and with a handle which is connected to the housing .

Stand der Technik:State of the art:

Ein Hängetaster der vorgenannten Art ist bekannt (US-A-2 419 819). Der bekannte Hängetaster berücksichtigt folgende Forderung nur unzureichend: Ein Hängetaster ist ein "Greifgerät", an das besondere ergonomische Anforderungen gestellt werden.A pendant switch of the aforementioned type is known (US-A-2 419 819). The well-known pendant control does not take sufficient account of the following requirement: A pendant control is a "gripping device" to which special ergonomic requirements are placed.

Darstellung der Erfindung:Presentation of the invention:

Hier will die Erfindung Abhilfe schaffen. Die in den Patentansprüchen beschriebene Erfindung löst die Aufgabe, einen Hängetaster, insbesondere sein Gehäuse, so auszubilden, daß er die Möglichkeit bietet, ihn den jeweiligen ergonomischen Anforderungen anzupassen. Da der Hängetaster das Teil des Hebezeugs ist, das die Bedienungsperson unmittelbar vor Augen hat, sind auch gestalterische Vorgaben beachtet.The invention seeks to remedy this. The invention described in the claims solves the task of designing a pendant switch, in particular its housing, in such a way that it offers the possibility of adapting it to the respective ergonomic requirements. Because the pendant switch The part of the hoist that the operator has in front of his eyes is also subject to design guidelines.

Bei dem Hängetaster nach der Erfindung sind Mensch, Maschine und Umwelt im Arbeitsprozeß optimal koordiniert. Der Stielgriff ermöglicht der Hand der Bedienungsperson völlig angepaßtes Greifen. Der Stielgriff ist variabel in Form (für verschiedene ergonomische Anforderungen) und Farbe (für verschiedene Umgebungsanforderungen). Auch bei Verschmutzung ist eine schnelle und billige Austauschmöglichkeit gegeben.In the pendant switch according to the invention, man, machine and the environment are optimally coordinated in the work process. The handle of the handle enables the operator to grasp the handle completely. The handle is variable in shape (for different ergonomic requirements) and color (for different environmental requirements). A quick and cheap exchange option is also available in the event of contamination.

Kurze Beschreibung der Zeichnung:Brief description of the drawing:

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird nachfolgend im einzelnen beschrieben. Die einzige Figur zeigt in perspektivischer Darstellung einen Hängetaster zum Steuern eines Hebezeugs mit den Funktionen "Heben" und "Senken", wobei der Stielgriff von dem Gehäuse abgenommen dargestellt ist.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing and is described in detail below. The single figure shows a perspective view of a pendant control for controlling a hoist with the functions "lifting" and "lowering", the handle being shown removed from the housing.

Bester Weg zur Ausführung der Erfindung:Best way to carry out the invention:

Der als Ausführungsbeispiel gewählte Hängetaster weist ein Gehäuse 1 auf. Das Gehäuse 1 hat im unteren Bereich eine Aufnahme für die Befestigung eines Stielgriffs 2. In dem Gehäuse 1 selbst sind Schaltelemente untergebracht.The pendant control selected as an exemplary embodiment has a housing 1. The housing 1 has a receptacle for fastening a handle handle 2 in the lower region. Switching elements are accommodated in the housing 1 itself.

Über die Aufnahme des Gehäuses 1 ist der Stielgriff 2 steckbar oder schiebbar. Nach dem Aufstecken ist der Stielgriff 2 mit Hilfe von Schrauben 3 an dem Gehäuse 1 befestigbar. Zu diesem Zweck weisen der Stielgriff 2 Löcher 21 und das Gehäuse 1 Gewindebohrungen 12 auf.The handle 2 can be plugged or pushed over the receptacle of the housing 1. After being attached, the handle 2 can be fastened to the housing 1 with the aid of screws 3. For this purpose, the handle 2 holes 21 and the housing 1 threaded holes 12.

Der Stielgriff 2 besteht aus flexiblem Material. Er ist ergonomisch ausgebildet, was durch querverlaufende Griffnuten 22 und eine Handabstützung 23 am freien Ende dargestellt ist. Der Stielgriff 2 ist eingefärbt. Demselben Gehäuse 1 sind mehrere Stielgriffe 2 unterschiedlicher ergonomischer Ausbildung zugeordnet. Diese können unterschiedlich eingefärbt sein.The handle 2 is made of flexible material. It is ergonomically designed, which is shown by transverse grip grooves 22 and a hand support 23 at the free end. The handle 2 is colored. The same housing 1 is assigned several handle handles 2 of different ergonomic design. These can be colored differently.

Mit dem Hebezeug ist der Hängetaster elektrisch über eine Steuerleitung 5 verbunden. In dem Gehäuse 1 sind von außen zugängliche Tasten 4 für die Steuerung des Hebezeugs vorgesehen.The pendant control is electrically connected to the hoist via a control line 5. In the housing 1 keys 4 are provided from the outside for controlling the hoist.

Gewerbliche Verwertbarkeit:Commercial usability:

Der Hängetaster nach der Erfindung ist bei allen Hebezeugen und/oder Krananlagen verwendbar, die mittels eines Hängetasters gesteuert werden.The pendant control according to the invention can be used with all hoists and / or crane systems which are controlled by means of a pendant control.
