Definitions
- the invention relates to a switch according to the preamble of the main claim, and a Method of making such a switch.
- the circuit board is U-shaped bent and carries a socket for a light source at the ends of her legs.
- the assembly of the switching component designed as a slide with the U-shaped bent Printed circuit board, at the ends of which the sockets are provided for the light sources to be inserted into them are relatively complicated. Furthermore, the circuit board is included and exposed to loads due to the freely protruding light source frames, the functionality of the printed circuit formed on the circuit board may adversely affect.
- switches are required to save cables as compact as possible construction at the same time inexpensive assembly.
- the invention has for its object a switch and a method for the same To create production that meets the stated requirements in an advantageous manner.
- the part of the inventive task relating to the switch is characterized by the features of Main claim solved.
- the switch can be used as Pushbutton switch (switching component axially movable relative to the housing), as a toggle switch (Switching component pivotable relative to the housing) or as a rotary switch (switching component relative rotatable to the housing).
- the functions of those arranged on the circuit board printed circuit with the associated components and the light source or multiple light sources can be of different types.
- the switch like the known generic switches, a hazard warning switch with an integrated timer relay for the flashing lights of a motor vehicle.
- the switch can also be a switch for window and mirror heaters with an integrated relay and timer. He can also a light switch for starting up different lights with relay functions be etc.
- the claim 2 is directed to an embodiment of the switch in which the circuit board on the one hand, it is particularly easy to install, and on the other hand, it is very secure and from all sides is protected.
- the claim 3 characterizes an advantageous embodiment of the bottom of the frame trained holding part.
- the claim 9 is directed to an embodiment of the switch, which in terms of Locking of the switching component corresponds to the switch according to DE 31 45 803 C2.
- This latching can also with a generic switch according to DE-OS 42 06 335 Come into play.
- the holding part also takes over Functions of the locking device.
- the part of the object of the invention relating to the method has the features of the claim 10 solved.
- the procedure is extremely simple to carry out can be carried out manually or automatically and is inexpensive.
- the switch is composed of a total of four modules, namely a housing 20, in which a switching component 40 is guided to move longitudinally, which, for example, by Clipping is connected to an actuating element 60 and accommodates a holding part 80.
- the switch has the same basic structure the switch according to DE-OS 42 06 335, so that it is only briefly explained.
- the housing 20 has a jacket 22 which is held in an opening in a control panel 24 is.
- the housing jacket 22 has recesses 26 in its lower region, by means of which he is clipped with corresponding projections of a bottom part 28.
- the Contact tongues 30 extend through the base part 28 and form contact tracks 32, from which plastic projections 34 protrude, which determine whether depending on the switch position between switch contacts 42 and the contact tracks 32 one electrical connection exists.
- the switch contacts stand out of the bottom 44 of the switching component 40 before, through which they are passed and end in contact tabs 46.
- the Switching component 40 has two side walls 48, which by means of projections 50 (FIG. 2) in the housing jacket 22 are performed.
- the side walls 48 are over a total of Y-shaped webs 52 connected to each other so that the switching component 40 is a stable component on which the contact flags are easily accessible.
- the holding part 80 is designed as a closed, generally rectangular frame, the Side walls 82 are formed on their opposite inner sides with guides 84 are in which a printed circuit and electronic or electrical components load-bearing circuit board 86 is inserted.
- the bottom 88 (FIG. 3) of the holding part 80 has recesses 90 and projections 92.
- the recesses 90 are used for receiving of the contact lugs 46, which are soldered to corresponding connections of the printed circuit board 86 are resilient or with appropriate training.
- the protrusions 92 serve to lock the holding part 80 with the switching component 40 at the roots of the Y-shaped Bridges 52.
- the light-emitting diodes 94 are on the cover 93 or the top of the holding part 80 arranged so that they provided in the actuator 60 translucent Illuminate areas 62 that represent corresponding function symbols in a targeted manner.
- the function of the printed circuit can be known per se, so that in this regard, for example reference is made to DE-OS 42 96 335.
- the mechanism of the defined displaceability of the switching component 40 relative to the housing 20 corresponds to that of DE 31 45 803 C2 and is only briefly explained.
- a pin 36 which extends through the bottom 44 of the switching component 40 and on his End carries a bolt 37 which is rotatable on the pin 36 but axially immovable is stored.
- the bolt 38 acts with a tooth having different depths Cam surface 39a in the bottom 44 and with a formed on the underside of the holding part 80, toothed cam surface 39b (Fig. 3) together.
- the overall mechanism that determines the two defined switch positions of the switch is known per se and will not be described further.
- the described switch is assembled as follows:
- the bottom part 28 with the contact tongues 30 and contact tracks 32 is over the pin 36 and the bolt 38 are joined to the switching component 40, so that by the relative movement of the two components conditional switching function of the switch is given.
- the fully assembled printed circuit board 86 is inserted into the holding part 80 96 provided, inserted.
- the light-emitting arranged on the top of the holding part 80 Diodes 94 are optionally connected to the printed circuit board 86 via the connecting wires 96 connected.
- a pre-assembled assembly is created, the electromechanical or large-scale one Protective components of the circuit between the circuit board 86 and the cover 93 takes up and the rest of the printed circuit with other electronic components, for example integrated circuits, between the circuit board 86 and the bottom 88 of the Holding part 80 securely protected.
- the entire assembly is inserted from above into the Switching component 40 used and locked therein.
- Cam surface 39b on the underside of the holding part 80 are the latched positions of the switch given.
- the contact tabs 46 if they are not designed so that they when inserted of the holding part 80 automatically give contact with the connections provided for them PCB 86 soldered.
- the housing jacket 22 is plugged onto the base part 28 and thus locked. Then the actuating element 60 is plugged onto the switching component 40.
- the switch has an extremely compact design, high functional reliability and after simple assembly ready for insertion into the switch or dashboard 24 one Motor vehicle or in any other intended opening.
