Definitions

  • the invention relates to a turntable with rotary knob and tactile function, for example, in Operating units of automotive technology find their use
  • US 5,373,142 discloses a microwave oven with only one control knob. This contains a tactile function and a rotation function.
  • the button is in the control knob of the rotary element integrated.
  • the knob of the control is locked with a rotary function of an encoder, while the button of the button is locked to the switching mechanism of the encoder.
  • the switching mechanism or the start button section is actuated. This is arranged in the lower region of the encoder, whereby, when a switching mechanism part of the encoder is pressed, the start key section is pressed so that the encoder is turned on.
  • the rotary part of the encoder is rotated. Inside the encoder and above the start button section, a lamp is centered Illumination of the button button attached.
  • the key button itself is not a symbol introduced, which are to be illuminated.
  • a rotary encoder which has a rotary knob and an integrated therein Button has. Below the button, a switch plunger is arranged, which when pressed contacted the button contacts on the plunger with contacts of a circuit board.
  • a rotary / key switch is known, on the laminated plates for tapping are mounted by signals of the rotary switch.
  • the object of the invention is to show a knob in which a knob located in the knob Button remains horizontally when adjusting the knob.
  • Another subtask provides with respect to a centric illumination of the button and a central contact at Keying.
  • the invention is based on the idea, a knob and a button located therein to build a support functionally detached from each other, whereby during adjustment of the Knob the button is not adjusted with.
  • the holder is the constructive connection between the knob and the button.
  • the rotary adjustment is by the knob while the button is pressed via the separate button.
  • For centric illumination with simultaneous centric contacting of the button provides flexible switch plunger with a central passage around which the contacts are preferably circular are attached. The light necessary for illumination can be through the Implementation be initiated in the key. So is a counterpart of the knob on the Holder movably mounted while the key is secured against rotation with the holder. in this connection the advantage is that the key is not specially aligned to a base or circuit board must be because the turntable is executable as a compact item. For a fixation the turntable in a panel this can also be done via the bracket.
  • the holder can also be fixed to the counterpart of the knob in the rotary switch or part of the counterpart.
  • a turntable 1 is shown in a compact design, which consists of a hollow knob 2 with a rotary knob base 3 as a counterpart.
  • This turntable 1 is installed in a panel 4, for example, a front panel of a motor vehicle.
  • a button 5 is additionally integrated, which is mechanically held by a holder 6.
  • the knob base 3 is loosely placed.
  • the key 5 has vertical guide groove 5.1, in which the holder 6 engages with their retaining fingers 6.1 and whereby the key 5 is connected against rotation with the holder 6.
  • three guide grooves 5.1 are preferably provided.
  • the Tastweg here is limited by a depression 2.1 in the knob 2 and the length of the guide groove 5.1.
  • the key 5 is a hollow probe element, so that the retaining fingers 6.1 engage within the key 5.
  • the key 5 further comprises a light guide 9, which is preferably guided on one side within the key 5 and protrudes into the head area of the key 5 for illuminating a key symbol 10.
  • the key 5 engages on keying over this light guide 9 on a contact dome 11.1 of a switch plunger 11, which has a central feedthrough 11.2 for the light of a light element 12, for example an LED.
  • this contact dome 11.1 doing a centric contacting of the contacts in the switch plunger 11 and the contacts of a circuit board 13th
  • the rotary knob base 3 a laminated plate 14 which contacts with a further contact element 15 of the circuit board 13.
  • the holder 6 itself prevents the rotation of the button 5 when turning the knob 2, but not the adjustment of the layer plate 14 to the contact element 15, which picks up a different voltage value.
  • the assembly of the individual elements in the panel 4 is fixed.
  • the holder 6, for example, from the gap between two Garfingem 6.1 outgoing preferably two U-shaped locking elements 6.2 on, with a free space is maintained to tap the voltage value 15.
  • knob 2 is not limited to the automotive technology. So can the Knob 2 can also be used in control panels, consoles, etc.
