  • control device comprising a control key pivotally mounted on a support, at least one contactor disposed opposite a region of the key offset relative to its hinge axis, and an elongated spacer whose ends opposed respectively cooperate with each contactor and with said region of the corresponding key. It applies in particular but not exclusively to the control of a drop-down menu that makes it possible to control equipment of a motor vehicle.
  • Control devices of this type are already known, as for example described in DE-C-4334046. They comprise a tilting mounted key on an intermediate plate disposed between the front of the housing and a printed circuit board.
  • the rocker button acts on one or more spacers guided in the intermediate plate. Each of these spacers actuates a contact of a push button mounted on the printed circuit board.
  • This device has several disadvantages.
  • the number of pieces is important, and the editing is long and delicate.
  • the present invention overcomes these disadvantages. It offers a control device that has a small number of parts and can be assembled quickly and easily.
  • the spacer is part of a transmitter made in one piece and which further comprises a support structure disposed opposite the key and fixedly mounted relative to the contactor, the spacer being connected to the structure of support by at least one flexible arm allowing it to move substantially parallel to itself to transmit to the contactor a thrust exerted on the key.
  • the transmitter is a part formed of a single block which includes one or more spacers and the guide means of these spacers. Its mounting is very easy, simply by placing it, for example, on a printed circuit board that has one or more contactors.
  • the support structure of the transmitter serves as a support and pivot to the control key.
  • the intermediate plate which, in the prior art, served as a pivot or hinge to the control button, can be removed.
  • the number of pieces is thus further reduced.
  • the key comprises a flared housing in which is received a portion of the support structure forming a pivot for the key.
  • control device comprises a housing having a front having a flared housing in which a hinge surface of the key is received.
  • This facade has grooves and the support structure comprises slides which are housed in said grooves.
  • the support structure has a T-shape consisting of an upright and a transverse beam.
  • the support structure may include a stepped portion at each of its ends, each stepped portion having a lower step forming a pivot for the key, and an upper step.
  • the upper steps of the stepped portions advantageously constitute slides that engage in the grooves on the front of the housing.
  • the spacer is connected to the support structure by two flexible arms defining a deformable parallelogram. In another embodiment, the spacer is connected to the support structure by a single flexible arm, one end of the spacer cooperating by interlocking with the contactor.
  • the transmitter is made of a transparent material. This arrangement promotes the illumination of the key by means of a light source, which makes it easy to locate in the dark.
  • the invention relates to a transmitter adapted to be part of a control device as defined above, comprising a support structure and at least one elongate spacer connected to the support structure by at least one flexible arm.
  • the control device according to the invention shown in an exploded view in FIG. 1 comprises a printed circuit board 2 on which two contactors 4 are fixed by means of a plate 6 in which a recess 8 is formed halfway through. distance between the contactors 4. the contactors are here pushbuttons. Alternatively, they may be replaced by a blister mat.
  • the printed circuit board 2 is housed inside a housing comprising a frontage 10 and a rear cover 12.
  • the device comprises a transmitter designated as a whole by the reference 16.
  • the transmitter comprises a support structure 18 and two elongate spacers 20 and 22 aligned with the contactors 4 respectively.
  • the support structure has a T-shape consisting of a beam 24 which constitutes the leg of the T, and a second beam 26 perpendicular to the beam 24 and which constitutes the bar T.
  • a stepped portion 32 directed away from the beam 24 is formed at each end of the beam 26. This part comprises a lower step 31 and a step superior 33.
  • each of the spacers 20 and 22 is connected to the support structure 18 by flexible arms.
  • each of the spacers 20 and 22 is connected by a single arm 28 to the beam 24 and by a double arm 30 at both ends of the beam 26.
  • control device comprises a key 36.
  • the key 36 is tilting. It is supported at its central portion on the two lower steps 31 of the stepped portions 32 formed at each end of the horizontal bar 26 of the support structure 18.
  • the transmitter 16 is made of a transparent plastic material, which allows the illumination of the key by means of a light source such as a diode. It can thus be easily identified in the dark.
  • FIG. 3 shows in more detail how the key 36 is articulated on the support structure 18 which constitutes a support and a pivot for the key 36.
  • the key 36 comprises a flared housing 38 in the shape of a V. Reach 40 in the form of a portion of a cylinder of revolution is formed at the bottom of the V-shaped housing 38.
  • the cylindrical surface 40 rests on the lower step 31 of the stepped portion 32.
  • the front 10 of the housing comprises a flared housing 42 in which a surface is received. of cylindrical articulation 44 of the key 36 belonging to the same cylinder of revolution as the surface 40.
  • the two upper steps 33 of the stepped portions 32 form slideways which penetrate into correspondingly shaped corresponding grooves 46 formed in the front wall 10 of the housing.
  • FIG. 4 shows a sectional view of the control device of the invention in the rest position.
  • the assembly of the device is by simple stacking.
  • the transmitter 16 is simply placed on the printed circuit board 2, the free end of the beam 24 being received in the recess 8 provided in the plate 6 affixed to the printed circuit board 2.
  • the spacers 20 and 22 each rest on a contactor 4 provided on the printed circuit board.
  • the key 36 is then placed on the transmitter so that the flared housings 38 cover the lower steps 31 of the two stepped portions 32, the width of the key being such that it can penetrate between the two upper steps 33 of this same part. .
  • the front 10 of the housing is placed over the key 36.
  • the cylindrical articulation surfaces 44 of the key are placed in the flared housing 42 formed on the rear face of the facade 10 of the housing.
  • the key is thus immobilized between the support structure 18 and the front 10 of the housing. But it can however pivot on the end of the support structure thanks to the presence of the cylindrical surfaces 40 and 44.
  • the axis of the cylindrical surfaces 40 and 44 perpendicular to the plane of the figure, forms an axis of rotation for the key 36.
  • FIG. 5 shows the position of the control key 36 when a thrust, symbolized by the arrow F, is exerted on the latter in its end region. upper side located opposite one of the contactors 4.
  • the key 36 pivots about its axis of rotation as described above.
  • the thrust F exerted on the key 36 is transmitted to the contactors 4 via the spacer 20.
  • the two flexible arms 28 and 30 allow free displacement in translation of the spacer 20. They constitute with it and the support structure 18 a deformable parallelogram which maintains the perpendicularity of the spacer to the printed circuit board, enabling it to act axially on the contactor 4.
  • FIG. 6 shows a sectional view of an alternative embodiment of the invention.
  • the control key 36 is hinged, not at its center as before, but at one of its ends, on the support structure 18 of the transmitter.
  • the device comprises only one contactor 4 and a single spacer 20.
  • the cutting plane passes at the level of the articulation of the hinged key 36 on the support structure, similarly to what has been shown on an enlarged scale in FIG. 3.
  • the cutting plane passes in the center of the key, so identical to the representation of Figures 4 and 5.
  • the control device which has just been described makes it possible to actuate contactors, in particular contactors forming part of an electrical circuit printed on a card. It is particularly applicable to the selection of values in a drop-down menu for controlling equipment such as a heater or air conditioning of the vehicle.
  • the rocker button shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 makes it possible to scroll the menu in both directions. When pressing, for example, on the upper part of the key, the value of the menu is incremented. On the contrary, when the lower part of this key is pressed, the value of the menu is decremented. On the contrary, the control device shown in FIG. 6 only makes it possible to scroll the menu values in one direction only. To return to the initial value, you have to go through all the values of the menu.
  • this device is particularly simple since it comprises a very small number of parts, namely essentially the transmitter and the control key.
  • the transmitter can be made for a low cost by molding.
  • the assembly of the device is also very simple since it is sufficient to put the different parts on each other. This gives a control device simple, safe operation and the cost is particularly low.
  • the spacer or each spacer is connected to the support structure by two flexible arms, in the vicinity of its two ends.
  • a single arm may be provided, in particular in the vicinity of the end of the spacer facing the key, the opposite end cooperating for example by interlocking with the switch to ensure its immobilization in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the spacer.
  • the assembly method described above as an example is specifically dedicated to the assembly of a single key or a single rocker.
