Definitions
- a switch with several cam switches arranged parallel to one another are known become, each of which an unspecified power control device assigned.
- Each cam switch contains a plate with its switch contacts and is, with the others together, built into a common sheet metal frame, which carries the power control unit and the control shafts.
- the object of the invention is to provide a power control device create that with simple and uncomplicated construction well integrated into an overall control concept.
- the housing of the power control unit is made of two simple ones Basic components built, namely a three sides of the flat box-shaped frame comprising sheet metal section, which the contains a bearing for the control shaft, and a side part in the form of a plate made of plastic or ceramic, the which has other storage.
- the sheet metal section can the bimetal and the snap switch of the thermally acting Wear power control unit and to manufacture a stiff housing part through an embossing deformation into one three-dimensional frame to be closed.
- This basic housing can also, if necessary, by turning into a another level, the tabs for connecting a Have poles and the attachment of the power control unit, while the other pole, also with tabs provided in a 5 mm grid on a connecting rail is provided, which runs along the insulating housing part and together with the tabs of the base housing part allows a "four-legged" attachment on one level.
- a power control device which, as independent, pre-assembled and adjusted functional Module can be used. It can be used individually or in several a control unit can be used, for example one block containing several control units. This one can have one-piece frame for each power control unit has a cam switch with control shaft. Behind each is a holder for a power control module so provided that the control shaft of the power control device with the control shaft of the cam switch aligned and operated by a clutch becomes. Adjacent modules are preferably mirror images installed to each other.
- control shaft of the module from can be operated from both sides and thus designed symmetrically is that they are also installed in the opposite position can be, despite the mirror image arrangement Operability in the same direction of rotation Control shaft guaranteed because then on the control shaft arranged curve each in the same direction has the same slope. With automatic production can this is done by appropriate coding of the components.
- the control shaft is preferably a hollow shaft so that e.g. the clutch to the control shaft of the cam switch via a Type claw coupling can be done while still from the Back of other accessories, e.g. a sliding contactor for digital signaling of the rotational position of the shaft can be connected.
- the power control module is a very flat, box-shaped and yet for good ventilation and heat dissipation Bimetal heating heat open and ventilable module from only about 15 mm thick, so that the control shaft only needs to be approx. 20 mm long.
- the electrical supply and contacting as a thick film heater provided on a ceramic plate on the bimetal Control heating can be by a long leg spring done with coil spring sections on the insulating housing part runs along and on a tab of the entire housing resilient.
- This switch can in the power control device according to the invention by a Drag cams happen, i.e. a switch cam of the front-mounted cam switch, the one on the control shaft between two Stops can be freely rotated by approx. 300 to 320 °.
- a narrow ring provided at a circumferential position, which with inner guide projections in a groove of Wave leads.
- This narrow and compact in cross-section, Unslotted ring can also be conveniently used on a control shaft accommodate the individual switch cams only 5 mm apart so that a 5 mm grid is maintained can be.
- Figures 1 to 5 show an electrical control unit 11 in Form of a double cam switch with one from a thermo or thermosetting plastic part existing housing 12 and two control units 61, the two stored therein, mutually parallel control shafts 13 with switching cams 14 exhibit.
- the switch housing which can be seen in particular from FIG. 3 for the double cam switch is made of plastic injection molding manufactured essentially without undercuts so that it is in a two-part form with only a few form slides (e.g. for the front opening 15 to accommodate the selector shaft) can be produced. It has the general form of a along rectangular frame with a front 16, one Back 17 and two narrow sides 18, 19. By one multiple openwork and through upstanding partition sections 20 stiffened bottom 21 is generally bowl-shaped Functional space 22 within the side walls 16 to 19 demarcated. The partitions protruding into this room 20 are used to accommodate and delimit functional parts of the switch. There are two in the functional space 22 switch chambers 23 arranged parallel to one another, in their area the floor 21 to the functional room opposite connection side 24 lowered and from Ventilation holes 25 is broken.
- switch chambers 23 In the area of the switch chambers 23 are in the front and Rear wall 16, 17 openings 15, 26 for receiving and storage the switching shafts 13 provided.
- the bottom 21 is, in particular in the area of frame-like upward projecting intermediate wall sections 20, several times perforated like a slot around functional parts, such as flat connectors 27 of mating contacts 28 or switching springs 29 take.
- the openings 30 are slit-shaped with a widened middle part 72 (see FIG. 2).
- control shaft 13 which is used to hold fastening screws are designed with which the switch on a device, for example, an electric heating or cooking device attached can be.
- 32 nuts are secured against rotation in chambers inserted (not shown).
- connection chambers 33 the flat tabs 27 protrude from their bottom, which on the Functional parts 28, 29 molded or connected to this are. They are parallel to each other in a given grid aligned. A preferred grid spacing is 5 mm.
- the two contact surfaces 34 of the flat plug are directed transversely to the longitudinal extent of the connection chamber 33, which usually has a longitudinally rectangular shape. In the Longitudinal walls of the connection chambers are parallel to the direction of insertion of tabs 27 slots 35 arranged, the in number and shape, i.e. their width and position for each of the connection chamber 33 are different. In yet explained way thereby a distinctive coded Connection arrangement allows. Fig.
- FIG. 2 shows that the connector are arranged in a grid, but not all Grid positions are occupied. For example, at in Fig. 2 upper left chamber on three in a 5 mm grid side by side arranged tab 27 a gap, then what again two connector tabs 27 in the grid consequences.
- the pitch between the plugs is 5 mm or a multiple thereof or 2.5 (also a 7.5 mm click distance is possible).
- Fig. 4 shows two units 36, each with two opposite one another directed groups of three switching springs 29.
- the Switch springs 29 of each group are from a common one Board 36 made of a good electrically conductive, resilient material punched. You then have a leaf spring like flexible section 137 each have a V-shaped bend 37, the runs on a cam 14 of the shift shaft, and then a switch arm 38 which at one end through Spot welding or riveting switch contact 39 wearing. To stiffen the switching arms are their long sides upwards, i.e. away from the switch contacts, bent up and form longitudinal stiffeners 40. Each board 36 can one have any number of switching arms. It can also if the function requires, individual switching arms are omitted his.
- Connecting part 41 connected to each other. It consists of a stamped sheet metal part that can be welded, riveted or an embossing deformation 142 (similar to FIG. 20) with the blanks 36 is connected. Subsequent to a middle connecting bridge 42 on each side is a board leading them overlapping and stiffening transverse strips 43 formed. ever two connector tabs for each board 36 protrude from which Connecting strips bent at right angles, through slots 44 in the board.
- Each unit 46 thus forms a functional section with a total of six contacts that are centered on the same potential, but three different switching outputs for each of the two in the cam switch unit 11 have included cam switch.
- Fig. 1 shows that two of these units in the double cam switch Control unit 11 are arranged so that each cam switch can operate six counter contacts 28.
- Counter-contact parts 52, 53 are also stamped sheet metal parts manufactured. Subsequent to a tab 26 the counter-contact part 52 forming sheet metal section in two stages T-shaped widened so that it on support shoulders 45, 49 for Position fixation in the area of the slots 30 and the deforming Attachment forms. On the opposite of the tab 27 A sheet metal tab 47 is cut out in the center and out diagonally to one side and then perpendicular to Extension of the surface having the tab 27 over the upper edge 48 of the crossbar bent. In this area there is a mating contact 28 in the middle above the flat plug level riveted or welded, e.g. a silver contact. The in the form of a "7" curved sheet metal tab 47 points in the area its more than 90 ° bend 50 a turn relieving hole 51.
- each counter contact 28 is provided on four individual counter contact parts 52 each with a flat plug and a mating contact and a double mating contact part 53 with two mating contacts 28 and two tabs 27 are provided.
- the functional parts also include a locking part 54, which is still will be described in connection with FIGS. 9 and 9a. It is in a locking section 55 near the front 16 of the housing 12 arranged and works to lock the switch shaft with a locking star in the individual switching positions 56 (Fig. 9) together. In a cylindrical guide chamber 57 in the locking section 55, the locking part 54 is guided. His spherical head is inserted into the recesses by means of a spring 58 of the star 56 pressed.
- the locking part 54 is made from a cylindrical sleeve-shaped part made of plastic with good sliding properties. It has a spherical contact surface to the locking star and on its back a sleeve-like Recess for guiding the spring 58. It combines the Advantages of a locking ball (insensitivity to tilting, Low friction) with those of a locking slide (easy to manufacture and assembly).
- Fig. 6 shows schematically the connector 59 on the connection side 24 are inserted into the connection chambers 33 and there contact the connector 27 (see also Fig. 2). It are rectangular plugs in the basic form or Plug sockets, the contact sockets next to each other in a 5 mm grid for electrically contacting connection of the flat connector to have. On the outside of their connector housing they have web-like protrusions 60 which fit into the slots 35 of the connection chambers fit. These projections work together formed and arranged with the slots 35 so that it is a distinctive one for the connected wiring harness 170 Represent coding.
- One specific connector each 59 therefore only fits into a connection chamber 33 intended for this purpose and in no other.
- control unit 11 which in the exemplary embodiment consists of two can be operated separately from one another by means of cam switches formed control units 61 can be used also a uniform housing with even more, for example, four parallel control units his.
- the entire arrangement of the switch and in particular the housing is designed so that the individual Control units 61 belonging functional components and their Recordings in the housing 12 limited to functional areas 62 are within which the previously described functional components are arranged. Between these functional areas 62 there is an intermediate area 63, which is not Has functional components and only from the connecting bridge 42 of the connecting part 41 of the two units 46 is bridged.
- Fig. 7 shows schematically a design of the plastic injection mold for a housing 12 of four control units 61 with different gag spacings that are on the same Assemble basic molded parts.
- the housing of the control unit 11 is injection molded made in shapes shown in Fig. 7 in two different Versions are indicated schematically.

- mold spacers 67 are provided, which in the Base molding space 66 used and are designed so that they to the corresponding mold sections for the functional areas Connect appropriately and thus the intermediate areas 63 to form.
- These shape spacers 67 can be different be made wide and in correspondingly wide basic form spaces 66 together with the same functional mold sections 68 be used. Since the intermediate sections 63 are only simple Containing connectors are the associated mold nests 67 easy to manufacture in different widths, while the complex shaped sections 68 for the functional areas for all other switches with the same different gag spacing can be used.
- the functional parts are in the manner previously described prepared. It is particularly advantageous that the Boards 36 and possibly also other functional parts formed from sheet metal can be manufactured as a continuous belt and immediately before installation, if necessary still in the assembly machine, can be cut to length from this tape. This makes it easier Manufacturing and assembly, especially the feeding Of the parts.
- the preparation of the functional parts in the form of a Endless belt also makes it possible, e.g. Boards 36 with different Number of switching arms 38 to produce by simply cut more or less wide pieces off the tape become.

- the housing is due to its many Partitions 20, which are also one-sided for the functional parts delimit open chambers, stiffened very well, so that too Switch blocks with e.g. four or more in parallel Cam switches can be produced with relatively little material are.
- the switch is thus ready for installation and connection.
- the switch is normally installed with the side of the Functional room 22 down on a horizontal wall of the electrical device, for example on the floor a hob. As a result, this side and the live ones Parts covered in it, so that no separate cover is needed. So it's just a one-piece case necessary.
- connection side 24 then at the top is now by means of Plug 59 wired.
- Plugs are on before assembled cable harnesses 170. They are in the connection chambers 33 inserted and due to their coding on the Slits 35 and the protrusions 60 are distinctive coded so that no miswiring is possible.
- the Connectors also cover all live parts the connection side, so that there is no insulating Cover is necessary.
- the cam switch can thus due to its two switching spring units 46 two input poles and from each of them operate three output poles switched differently.
- the three remaining connecting tongues 27 can be used for further wiring.
- the only functional component that is different for switches The distance between the gags must be different Connecting part 41, which has a connecting bridge of different lengths 42 receives. In the event that the cam switch too this connecting bridge can be separated on the input side also dropped.
- Fig. 8 shows a cross section through a variant with a two-piece housing.
- the switching shaft 13 between two housing parts 12a and 12b set.
- the connection side Housing part 12b contains the connection chambers 33 and Slots 35 through which the terminal tabs 27 protrude.
- the functional-side housing part 12a places the counter-contact components 52a, 53a (see Fig. 10).
- the cam switch works with a straight movable contact bridge 72, bridging the two fixed mating contacts 49a, 49b.
- the Contact bridge consists of a plate made of quite massive Flat material that has a switch contact near its two ends 39a, 39b. Between these is at the in Fig.
- the contact bridge is located in a contact bridge chamber 75, which supports the springs and the contact bridge leads, but otherwise largely open is. In it, it behaves in such a way that it is easily shown in FIG. 8 is vertically movable. Also the corresponding section of the floor in the connection-side housing part 12b, which is the switch chamber 23 limited, is provided with ventilation slots 25a and in the others are round and tunnel-shaped.
- the two mating contact components 52a and 53a are from FIG. 10 to recognize.
- the individual counter contacts consist of one Flat material strip, which is attached to its flat-paneled part 27 has a laterally projecting arm 76 which is rotated by 90 ° in the material, so that the mating contact 49a by welding from a wire section, e.g. made of silver wire, can be attached.
- a wire section e.g. made of silver wire
- punched and laterally barb-like exhibited sections 77 can also without the component Define support by the second housing part.
- the mating contact member 53a contains three on each side Mating contacts and two tabs 27, each mirror image a total of six counter contacts to each other load-bearing unit that form the distance between two Bridged cam switches.
- the one between them Connection bridge 42 is again in accordance with the width of the intermediate section 63 varies depending on the distance between the gags made long.
- the contact bridge consists of a flat stamped part Flat material.
- the two switch contacts 39a, 39b directly to the narrow sides by welding from one Wire, e.g. Silver wire attached, which was then cut to length becomes.
- the shape can also be seen from Fig. 9, which the essential functional components of a cam switch shows.
- This switch also makes it possible, like that according to the figures 1 to 5, with extremely small axial distances get along between the individual contact tracks, namely in 5 mm grid. While there can be seen in Fig. 1, by Intermediate wall sections 20 separated contact chambers 78 the necessary leakage current paths between the contacts produce, these are in the embodiment of Fig. 8 to 10 the contact bridge chambers 75.
- Fig. 8 shows the switch in the open position.
- the switch cam 14 presses the contact bridge 72 against the force of Springs 74 downward, so that they belong together Contacts 39a, 49a and 39b, 49b an opening gap arises.
- this only needs half to be as big as with a single contact because the Opening slit in this respect with regard to the rollover security add.
- the heat generated by the opening sparks is well distributed in the rather massive contact bridge 72
- opening spark formation is only one Contact pair switches lower.
- Figures 1 to 10 cam switches for sequential Control of different switching functions, for example a so-called 7-stroke circuit in electric cooking appliances or the different activation of switching stages, Grill, top heat and bottom heat or the like for ovens etc. enable
