Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schalter-Betätigungsmechanismus gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1. Bei einem solchen Schalter-Betätigungsmechanismus, der für Schalter wie Spiegelverstellschalter in Fahrzeugen oder Schalter für Spielkonsolen und dergleichen verwendet werden kann, ist der Kipphebel aus einer zentralen Ruhelage in alle Richtungen verschwenkbar und durch Federkraft in die Ruhelage beaufschlagt.The invention relates to a switch actuating mechanism according to the Preamble of claim 1. In such a switch operating mechanism, the switch such as mirror adjustment in vehicles or switches for game consoles and the like can be used, the rocker arm is off a central rest position in all directions swiveling and through Spring force applied to the rest position.
Je nach der von dem Schalter verlangten Funktionalität muß der Schalter-Betätigungsmechanismus entsprechende Beweglichkeitsfreiheitsgrade aufweisen, die mit variablen Rückstellkräften und Rastpositionen gekoppelt sein können. Komplexe Bewegungsmuster sind mit entsprechend zahlreichen, aufeinander abgestimmten Bauteilen realisierbar.Depending on the functionality required by the switch, the switch actuating mechanism must corresponding mobility degrees of freedom have, coupled with variable restoring forces and locking positions could be. Complex movement patterns are with accordingly numerous, matched components feasible.
Aus der US-A-4,500,867 ist ein Betätigungselement mit einem Kipphebel bekannt, der ein in einem Sockel allseitig verschwenkbares Lagerteil mit einem daran befestigten Schaft aufweist. Eine Federscheibe ist zwischen dem Lagerteil und dem Sockel angeordnet. Durch die Federscheibe ist der Kipphebel in eine zentrale Ruhelage beaufschlagt.From US-A-4,500,867 is an actuator with a rocker arm known, one in a socket on all sides pivotable bearing part with a having attached thereto shaft. A spring washer is between the bearing part and the pedestal. Due to the spring washer, the rocker arm is in one central resting position applied.
Durch die Erfindung wird ein Schalter-Betätigungsmechanismus geschaffen, der mit geringstem Aufwand an Bauteilen ein komplexes Bewegungsmuster für den Kipphebel ermöglicht. Gemäß der Erfindung ist der Kipphebel um seine Längsachse drehbar und mit der Federscheibe drehfest gekoppelt.

angeordnet, von dem in Figur 1 nur ein Wandungsteil 10 dargestellt
ist. In diesem Wandungsteil 10 ist eine kugelkappenförmige Lageraufnahme
12 gebildet. In dieser Lageraufnahme 12 ist ein entsprechend
kugelkappenförmig ausgebildetes Lagerteil 14 eines Kipphebels aufgenommen,
von dem in Figur 1 außer dem Lagerteil 14 ein mit diesem verbundener
Schaft 16 gezeigt ist. Das Lagerteil 14 hat an den kugelkappenförmigen
Bereich anschließend einen zylindrischen Bereich 18 und
an seinem von dem Schaft 16 abgewandten Ende einen radial abstehenden,
kreisscheibenförmigen Flansch 20. Die mittlere Öffnung 22 des
Flansches 20 ist in das Innere des Lagerteils 14 fortgesetzt und bildet
dort eine konkav gerundete Stützfläche 24. Ein am Sockel des Betätigungsmechanismus
abgestützter Lagerstift 26 erstreckt sich durch
die Öffnung 22 und mit seinem ballig gerundeten freien Ende in Anlage
an die konkav gerundete Stützfläche 24.The switch actuating mechanism is in a socket or housing

tellerartig gewölbte Federscheibe 28 aufgesetzt, die sich an dem
Ringflansch 20 axial abstützt. Die konkave Seite der Tellerfeder 28
ist der Innenfläche des Wandungsteils 10 zugekehrt. Die Federscheibe
28 hat ein mittiges Loch 30, dessen Form dem Außenumfang des zylindrischen
Teils 18 des Lagerteils 14 entspricht. Durch zwei einander
diametral gegenüberliegende Kerben 32 in der Öffnung 30 und darin
eingreifende Rippen am Lagerteil 14 ist dieses mit der Federscheibe
28 drehfest gekoppelt.On the
Die Federscheibe 28 liegt mit ihrem Außenumfang 34 an einer innenseitigen,
ringförmigen Kontaktfläche 36 des Wandungsteils 10 an. Diese
ringförmige Kontaktfläche 36 ist bei der gezeigten Ausführungsform in
den Wandungsteil 10 eingesenkt. Wie aus Figur 2 ersichtlich ist, hat
die Federscheibe 28 an ihrem Außenumfang 34 eine Anzahl von ausgeprägten
Nocken 38, nämlich vier in Winkelabständen von 90° angeordnete
Kontaktnocken. Die Anzahl und Anordnung der Kontaktnocken 38 wird
durch die Funktionalität des zu betätigenden Schalters bestimmt. Diese
Nocken 38 sind Formgestaltungen, die mit entsprechenden Formgestaltungen
der Kontaktfläche 36 zur Definition von Raststellungen
zusammenwirken. Diese Raststellungen kommen bei der Drehung des Kipphebels
16 um seine Längsachse zustande. The

28 stellt für den Kipphebel in jeder seiner Auslenkpositionen eine
Rückstellkraft bereit, die ihn in die in Figur 1 gezeigte Ruhelage
zurückführen kann. Durch die gewölbte Form der Federscheibe 28 haben
die Betätigungs- und Rückstellkräfte eine degressive Charakteristik.
Die Federscheibe 28 kann auch die für eine Rückdrehung des Kipphebels
in seine Ruhelage erforderlichen Rückstellkräfte bereitstellen. Dazu
laufen die Nocken 38 über rampenförmige Flächenbereiche der Kontaktfläche
36. Durch den axialen Druck auf diese rampenförmigen Flächenbereiche
werden in Umfangsrichtung orientierte Kraftkomponenten erzeugt.The rocker arm formed by bearing
