Hierzu sind in Öffnungen in der Vorderwand der Bedienblende Tasten angeordnet, die jeweils über einen Stößel mit einem der Taste zugeordneten Schalter, insbesondere Mikroschalter oder Kurzhubschalter, in mechanischer Wirkverbindung stehen. Die Tasten dienen beispielsweise zur Einstellung von Programmen oder Zusatzfunktionen. An den Stößeln sind elastische Dome angeordnet, die einerseits den beweglichen Stößel zur festen Rückwand hin abdichten, andererseits durch ihre Elastizität eine Rückstellkraft für den gedrückten Taster bereitstellen, wodurch dieser wieder nach dem Loslassen in seine Ausgangsposition zurückbewegt wird.For this purpose, keys are arranged in openings in the front wall of the control panel, which are in mechanical operative connection in each case via a plunger with a switch associated with the button, in particular micro-switch or Kurzhubschalter. The keys are used, for example, for setting programs or additional functions. On the plungers elastic domes are arranged, on the one hand seal the movable plunger to the solid back wall, on the other hand provide by their elasticity a restoring force for the depressed button, causing it to be moved back to its original position after releasing.
Zusätzlich ist im Inneren der Bedienblende eine Dichtungsmatte angeordnet, die flächig an der Innenseite der Vorderwand anliegt. Für die Stößel sind jeweils Durchtrittsöffnungen vorgesehen, die mit ihrem inneren Rand den Stößel dichtend umfassen. Hierfür ist es zweckmäßig, dass die Durchtrittsöffnung einen kleineren Querschnitt aufweist, als der radiale Querschnitt des Stößels. In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung enthält die Dichtungsmatte an den Rändern der Durchtrittsöffnungen eine zylindrische Ausprägung, die als Überzug für einen Teilbereich des Stößels dient und diesen in einem Teilbereich sehr fest umgibt. Damit wird eine gute Abdichtung gegen Spritzwasser erreicht.In addition, a sealing mat is arranged in the interior of the control panel, which rests flat against the inside of the front wall. Passages are respectively provided for the plungers which sealingly surround the plunger with their inner edge. For this purpose, it is expedient that the passage opening has a smaller cross section than the radial cross section of the plunger. In an advantageous embodiment, the sealing mat contains at the edges of the passage openings a cylindrical shape, which serves as a coating for a portion of the plunger and this very tightly surrounding in a partial area. This achieves a good seal against sprayed water.
In einer zweckmäßigen Ausführung enthält die Dichtungsmatte in den Bereichen zwischen zwei benachbarten Durchtrittsöffnungen jeweils eine wellenförmige Ausformung, die eine mechanische Entkopplung der Tastenbewegung zwischen benachbarten Tasten bereitstellt. Die Ausformung hat einen zum Inneren der Bedienblende gerichteten Scheitelpunkt, damit die flächige Anlage der Dichtungsmatte weiterhin gewährleistet wird.In an expedient embodiment, the sealing mat in the areas between two adjacent through openings each having a wave-shaped formation, which provides a mechanical decoupling of the key movement between adjacent keys. The shape has a directed to the interior of the control panel vertex so that the surface conditioning of the sealing mat is still guaranteed.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform sind die Dome einstückig an der Dichtungsmatte im Bereich der Durchtrittsöffnungen angeformt, wobei sie die Durchtrittsöffnung umschließen. In einer zweckmäßigen Ausführung ist zwischen der Vorderwand der Bedienblende und dem Aufnahmegehäuse für die Steuerungskomponenten eine Rückwand mit Durchgangsbohrungen für die Stößel angeordnet. Die an den Stößeln angeordneten Dome besitzen jeweils eine Auflage, die unter Vorspannung dicht an der Rückwand aufliegt. Hierdurch wird eine weitere Abdichtung bereitgestellt, die eine besonders zuverlässige Dichtigkeit zum inneren des Aufnahmegehäuses für die Steuerungskomponenten gewährleistet. In zweckmäßiger Weise enthält das Aufnahmegehäuse in der vorderen Wand Bohrungen, die mit den Durchgangsbohrungen in der Rückwand der Bedienblende fluchten um die mechanische Wirkverbindung zwischen Stößel und dem jeweils zugeordneten auf der Leiterplatte befindlichen Schalter bereitzustellen.In a further advantageous embodiment, the domes are integrally formed on the sealing mat in the region of the passage openings, wherein they enclose the passage opening. In an expedient embodiment, a rear wall with through-holes for the plunger is arranged between the front wall of the control panel and the receiving housing for the control components. The arranged on the ram dome each have a support which rests tightly under prestress against the rear wall. In this way, a further seal is provided, which ensures a particularly reliable seal to the inside of the receiving housing for the control components. In more convenient The receptacle housing in the front wall contains bores which are aligned with the through bores in the rear wall of the control panel in order to provide the mechanical operative connection between the plunger and the respectively assigned switch located on the circuit board.
Für eine besonders vorteilhafte optische Gestaltung der Bedienblende, ist die Vorderwand annähernd der Form der Hüllfläche eines Kugelabschnitts mit einem Radius von beispielsweise 3 m nachgebildet. Hierzu ist es vorteilhaft, die Taster diesem Verlauf anzupassen, wodurch die Stößel und die dem Bediener zugewandten Flächen der Taster in ihren geometrischen Abmessungen unterschiedlich ausgeprägt sind.For a particularly advantageous optical design of the control panel, the front wall is approximately simulated the shape of the envelope surface of a spherical section with a radius of for example 3 m. For this purpose, it is advantageous to adapt the probe this course, whereby the plunger and the operator facing surfaces of the buttons are different in their geometric dimensions.
In einer weiteren zweckmäßigen Ausführung sind die Taster mit ihrem zugeordneten Stößel einstückig ausgeführt.In a further advantageous embodiment, the button with its associated plunger are made in one piece.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist im unteren Bereich zwischen der Vorderwand der Bedienblende und der Rückwand ein Steg mit zumindest einer Bohrung platziert, die eingedrungenes Wasser zuverlässig vom Aufnahmegehäuse und somit von den Steuerungskomponenten entfernt ableitet. Die Bohrung ist dabei zweckmäßigerweise nahe der Innenseite der Vorderwand der Bedienblende angeordnet.In an advantageous embodiment, in the lower area between the front wall of the control panel and the rear wall, a web is placed with at least one bore, which reliably dissipates water that has penetrated from the receiving housing and thus away from the control components. The bore is expediently arranged near the inside of the front wall of the control panel.

Wie in Fig. 1 dargestellt, sind in der Vorderwand 2 der Bedienblende 1 als Bedienelemente Tasten 8 angeordnet. Die Tasten ragen durch die der Tastenform angepasste Öffnungen 4 hindurch und sind somit für den Bediener erreichbar. Über ein Stößel 9 wird beim Drücken der Taste 8 die mechanische Wirkverbindung zu dem der Taste zugeordneten Mikroschalter 13 bereitgestellt. Die Mikroschalter 13 sind hierbei beispielhaft direkt auf einer Leiterplatte 12 mit weiteren Steuerungskomponenten 20 angeordnet. Die Leiterplatte ist in einem Aufnahmegehäuse 5 angeordnet und befestigt, beispielsweise Rast- Schraub- oder Nietverbindungen. Das Aufnahmegehäuse 5 wird mit der bestückten Leiterplatte 12 in die Bedienblende 1 eingefügt und befestigt. Eine zwischen der Vorderwand des Aufnahmegehäuses 5 und Vorderwand 2 der Bedienblende angeordnete Rückwand 6 mit Durchgangsbohrungen 7 dient zur Führung der Stößel. Im verbleibenden Raum zwischen Vorderwand 2 der Bedienblende 1 und Rückwand 6 befindet sich eine elastische Dichtungsmatte 14 mit Durchtrittsöffnungen 15 für die Stößel 9, die flächig bündig an der inneren Fläche 3 der Vorderwand anliegt. Die Durchtrittsöffnungen 15 sind so dimensioniert, dass die Stößel 9 durch den inneren Rand der Durchtrittsöffnungen 15 dichtend umfasst werden. Hierzu ist dem Verlauf des Umfanges der Durchtrittsöffnung 15 eine zylindrische Ausprägung 17 angeformt, die den Stößel 9 in einem Teilbereich seiner Länge dichtend überzieht. Die Dichtungsmatte vermindert durch die verbleibenden Fugen zwischen dem inneren Rand der Öffnung 4 und dem äußeren Umfang der Taste 8 eindringendes Wasser, insbesondere Spritzwasser. An den offenen Enden der Ausprägungen ist jeweils ein elastischer Dom 18 angeformt, wobei die Anformung einstückig mit der bereits beschriebenen Dichtungsmatte 14 erfolgen kann. Die Auflagen 19 der Dome 18 sind dabei an der Rückwand 6 angeordnet und können unter einer Vorspannung stehen. Somit wird verhindert, dass in den vorderen Raum 23 der Bedienblende eingedrungenes Wasser weiter in das Aufnahmegehäuse 5 für die Steuerungskomponenten oder in das Innere des Haushaltgerätes gelangt und Schaden anrichtet. In dem vorderen Raum 23 zwischen der inneren Fläche 3 der Bedienblende und der Rückwand ist unterhalb der Stößel 9 ein Steg 21 mit einer Ablaufbohrung angeordnet. Dieser ist hierbei einstückig von der Rückwand abgewinkelt und stellt durch seine nahe der inneren Fläche 3 der Vorderwand liegenden Ablaufbohrung 22 sicher, dass in den vorderen Raum 23 eingedrungenes Wasser definiert vom Aufnahmegehäuse 5 und somit von den Steuerungskomponenten 20 wegweisend ablaufen kann. Das Aufnahmegehäuse 5 enthält eine Vorderwand, die an der Rückwand 6 der Bedienblende anliegt. Damit die Stößel in das Innere des Aufnahmegehäuses 5 gedrückt werden und die Mikroschalter 13 betätigen können, weist das Aufnahmegehäuse 5 Bohrungen 10 mit einer angeformten Überkragung auf. Zwischen zwei benachbarten Stößeln 9, 9a enthält die Dichtungsmatte 14 jeweils zumindest eine wellenförmige Ausformung 16, dessen Scheitel einen Abstand von der inneren Fläche 3 der Vorderwand 2 aufweist. Diese Ausformung 16 dient zur mechanischen Entkopplung der Stößel 9, damit beim Drücken einer Taste 8 der zum Inneren der Bedienblende bewegte Stößel 9 nicht die benachbarte Taste 8a bzw. den benachbarten Stößel 9a mitbewegt.As shown in Fig. 1, the
Die in Fig. 1 dargestellten Tasten 8 sind mit den jeweiligen Stößeln 9 einstückig ausgeführt und bestehen aus einem harten Material. Alternativ sind jedoch mehrteilige Ausführungsformen denkbar.The
Zur Bereitstellung einer komfortablen Bedienung und eines optisch vorteilhaften Erscheinungsbildes ist die Vorderwand der Bedienblende geneigt oder abgerundet. Hierfür ist es vorteilhaft, dass die aus der äußeren Fläche herausragenden Tasten dem Verlauf dieser Form folgen. Bei einer vorteilhaft wirkenden abgerundeten Form, die in etwa dem Verlauf eines Abschnitts einer Kugelhülle mit beispielsweise etwa 3 m Radius entspricht, ergibt sich für jede Taste eine unterschiedliche Form und für jeden Stößel eine unterschiedliche Länge.To provide a comfortable operation and a visually advantageous appearance, the front wall of the control panel is inclined or rounded. For this purpose, it is advantageous that the protruding from the outer surface buttons follow the course of this form. In an advantageous acting rounded shape, which corresponds approximately to the course of a section of a spherical shell with, for example, about 3 m radius, results for each key a different shape and for each plunger a different length.
In der perspektivischen Ansicht gemäß Fig. 2 ist die Blickrichtung auf die innere Fläche 3 der Vorderwand der Bedienblende 1 gerichtet. Hierbei ist die an der inneren Fläche 3 anliegende Dichtungsmatte 14 mit den angeformten Domen 18 zu erkennen. Die Stößel 9 ragen hierbei in ihrer Länge abschnittsweise aus der Auflage 19 des Domes heraus. Die zylindrische Ausprägung 17 umfasst bzw. überzieht den Stößel 9 in einem Teilbereich seiner Länge derart, dass dieser bei bestimmungsgemäßer Betätigung innerhalb der als Umfassung wirkenden Ausprägung 17 nicht herausgeschoben bzw. in axialer Position verschoben werden kann.In the perspective view of FIG. 2, the viewing direction is directed to the
In der perspektivischen Ansicht gemäß Fig. 3 ist die zusätzlich angeordnete Rückwand 6 mit den Durchgangsbohrungen 7 für die Stößel zu erkennen. Hierbei kann die Rückwand je nach Ausgestaltung und Funktion der Bedienblende weitere Bohrungen oder Komponenten enthalten. Die aus der Rückwand 6 herausragenden Endabschnitte der Stößel 9 übertragen beim Drücken der Taste 8 die Druckbewegung auf den Mikroschalter 13.In the perspective view of FIG. 3, the additionally arranged
