Definitions

  • the invention relates to a controller for devices according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • control panels which have a row of keys with a uniform distance, for example, from the lower edge of a display to operate the controller.
  • the development of the home appliance market is to offer control panels with different design, with the variable positioning of control buttons on the control panel in the foreground.
  • the controllers would have to obtain for each different position of the row of keys an individual circuit layout to be developed separately. However, this is associated with a high development effort and therefore unprofitable.
  • This multi-part circuit board consists of a main circuit board, on which the required circuit layout is located.
  • the main circuit board has recesses for smaller circuit boards, each carrying a switch for actuating the controller.
  • the small circuit boards are connected to the main circuit board each via a flexible ribbon cable.
  • the ribbon cable enables the flexible positioning of the small circuit boards according to the geometric specifications of the control panel.
  • the present invention therefore based on the problem of providing a controller for the one hand variable geometric specifications for buttons on a control panel are compensated without having to change the circuit layout of the control and on the other hand an easily assembled, ifsunan devises component provide.
  • the space requirement of the controller should be kept as small as possible.
  • a control for devices with a housing and at least one circuit board, wherein the circuit board has at least one switch, and wherein the housing has at least one means for transmitting an actuation of the control on the switch of the circuit board, and the means for Transmission of an actuator operator side has at least one pressure point, which is located off the actuation escape line of the switch.
  • the circuit board of this controller is arranged in the housing, that the means for transmitting an actuation of the controller interacts with the switch and in this way control signals can be entered into the controller.
  • the means for transmitting an operation has on the operating side at least one pressure point, which is not on the Betreliistsvuchtline the switch. In other words, the pressure point is not exactly opposite the switch.
  • the means for transmitting at least two pressure points, which are at different distances from a reference line and which are symmetrical to the actuation escape line of the switch.
  • An advantage of the at least two pressure points on the means for transmitting an actuation of the control on the switch is that is given by the differently far from a reference line pressure points the possibility to arrange input means, such as buttons, at least two different starting points.
  • the reference line can be, for example, the lower or upper edge of the housing or of a display integrated in the control.
  • the operator mechanically transfers the operation to the switch by an operator, avoiding additional sources of interference by the direct action of the means for transmitting to the switch.
  • At least two means for transmitting an actuation are arranged side by side so that the pressure points arranged thereon form at least one row.
  • the means for transmitting at least two pressure points, and the rows formed are parallel to each other.
  • the rows are arranged at different distances from the reference line.
  • push-buttons acting on the pressure points can be arranged at different distances from the reference line and so control panels can be designed differently.
  • At least one means for transmitting an actuation is arranged such that the at least one pressure point arranged thereon at least partially lies outside the alignment of the at least one row of pressure points.
  • the arrangement of a means for transmitting an actuation in such a manner that the at least one arranged pressure point is at least partially not in alignment with the at least one row of pressure points is advantageous, since in this way a button from the row of buttons is deductible and a stepped Button is conspicuously positionable.
  • the actuator is arranged on the inside of the housing substantially axisymmetric to the at least two operator-side pressure points. This ensures particularly advantageous that the transmission of an operation on the switch takes place evenly regardless of which of the operator-side pressure points has been actuated.
  • the switches are arranged on the circuit board in a row.
  • At least one switch is arranged on the printed circuit board such that the at least one switch lies at least partially out of alignment with the switch arranged in a row on the solder side of the printed circuit board.
  • the arrangement of a switch at least partially not in the alignment of the rows of switches is advantageous because in this way a button from the row of buttons is deductible and a remote button is conspicuous positionable.
  • components and switches are arranged on different sides of the circuit board, wherein the components overlap the least one switch and the leads of the components are arranged on different sides of the switch.
  • an arrangement of the at least one switch on one side of the circuit board and, for example, the arrangement of components on the other side of the circuit board is particularly advantageous because in this way a greater leeway to Design of the circuit layout is given.
  • the circuit layout further optimized and the required space for the circuit structure additionally reduced.
  • switches are arranged on the solder side of the circuit board and components on the Be Divisionseite the circuit board.
  • Component is understood to mean both a simple electronic component and a power component.
  • the means for transmitting an operation is supported on one side. Due to the one-sided mounting of the means for transmission, a simple production is possible and also reduces the susceptibility to interference.
  • the holder of the means for transmitting an operation is a film hinge or at least a two-point holder.
  • the holder of the means for transmitting an operation is a tongue or a leaf spring.
  • the design of the means for transmission as a tongue or leaf spring is particularly advantageous because in the manufacture of the housing no special provisions are to be made in terms of material thickness.
  • the actuator is pen-free or pin-shaped.
  • a particularly advantageous feature of a pen-free actuator is the particularly simple production of the housing.
  • the advantage of an actuator with pin is an accentuated switching behavior.
  • the housing and the at least one means for transmission for actuating a controller are integrally formed.
  • the one-piece design of housing and means for transmission allows cost-effective production in one operation, for example by injection molding.
  • the housing has an insert, in which the at least one means for transmitting an actuation of the controller is included.
  • an insert is the simple realization of special additional constructive or creative Requirements possible without having to completely rework the housing for this.
  • solder surfaces of the components are spaced at least 3.2 mm from the soldering surfaces of the switches.
  • the pressure points are raised. This ensures that the starting point for keys on the one hand is visually highlighted, on the other hand, a defined transmission of the key press is guaranteed to the means for transmission.
  • FIG. 1 shows a cross section through a part of a controller.
  • the illustrated section through a one-piece housing 10 and a printed circuit board 12 is set so that the section passes through a means 22 for transmitting an operation.
  • the transmission means 22 has two pressure points 24 which are outside the actuation alignment line of a switch 16 lie. But it would also be a means for transmission 22 with one or more than two pressure points 24 possible.
  • the means for transfer 22 merges seamlessly into the housing 10.
  • the transition is indicated by a dashed line.
  • the means for transmission 22 is shown as tongue 34.
  • an actuator 30 of the means for transmission 22 is pin-shaped.
  • the actuator 30 located on the actuating line of the switch 16 acts on the switch 16.
  • the switch 16 is arranged on the side of the housing 28 facing Lötseite 14 of the printed circuit board 12.
  • the Be Georgiaseite 18 of the circuit board 12 carries a component 20, which may be a power device. Component 20 engages over switch 16, the component connections of component 20 are located on different sides with respect to switch 16.
  • housing 10 and printed circuit board 12 makes it possible that due to multiple pressure points 24, buttons are attachable to different points without multiple switches or different variants of the circuit board and variants in the production facilities would be required.
  • Several rows of switches which could for example be kept in a printed circuit board layout, would on the one hand increase the material costs and on the other hand would prevent a reduction of the required space.
  • FIG. 2 shows an oblique plan view of the housing 10.
  • the means for transmission 22 are designed as a tongue 34.
  • Each tongue 34 carries by way of example two raised pressure points 24.
  • the tongue 34 is surrounded on three sides by a gap.
  • At the upper end of the lateral column is the transition between tongue 34 and housing 10, as in FIG. 1 is indicated by the dashed line.
  • six means for transmission 22, each with two pressure points 24 are arranged side by side.
  • the upper and lower pressure points 24 of each transfer means 22 are spaced differently from a reference line 26.
  • reference line 26 could, for example, the lower or upper edge of a display or the housing itself act.
  • FIG. 2 shows an opening 36 in the housing 10 for receiving a display.
  • the equidistant from the reference line 26 pressure points 24, so all the upper pressure points 24, form a row which is at a certain distance, parallel to the row at a different distance from the reference line 26, so all the lower pressure points 24.
  • FIG. 3 shows in plan view two further embodiments for a holder of the means for transmission 22nd
  • FIG. 3a shows a section of a housing 10 in which two adjacent means for transmission 22, each with two pressure points 24 are shown.
  • the transmission means 22 are each supported by a two-point bracket 32. Except for the two-point support 32, the transmission means 22 is separated on four sides by a gap from the housing 10.
  • FIG. 3b shows a section of the housing 10 in which a means 22 for transmission with two pressure points 24 is shown.
  • the transmission means 22 is supported by a film hinge on the housing 10.
  • the transmission means 22 is separated from the housing 10 by at least three sides by a gap.
