Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for generating electrically evaluable control signals according to the preamble of claim 1 and to an electrical circuit for generating electrical control signals according to the preamble of claim. 6
- Such devices or such an electrical circuit usually consist of a manually operated control stick, which is inserted in a housing and can be deflected in different directions of movement.
- the free end of the joystick is hereby grasped manually, whereby the movements of the joystick in the housing, for example by means of Hall sensors, are converted into electrical signals.
- the electrical signals are evaluated by a printed circuit board on which a microprocessor or similar control circuits are provided, and thus the directions of movement of the joystick can be in electrical signals, for example for the deflection of a crane or other technical equipment or for the operation of a computer by control signals operated on the screen associated with various control symbols.
- a button must be provided at the free end of the joystick, which must be kept pressed permanently to the deflection of the joystick ever release as directions of movement. This key is used to ensure the reliability of the joystick, so that when the joystick is unintentionally deflected, there is no movement of the systems to be driven and thus a malfunction is triggered.
- the reliability of the device or the electrical circuit should be verifiable and ensured throughout the life.
- one or more sensor switches are integrated, which are formed capacitively or optically, various control signals can be generated by the operation of the joystick is monitored, because the device is only enabled when the control signals present are.
- the control signals are generated in the capacitive design of the sensor switch in that the palm of the User causes a change in capacitance of the metallic sensor switches, whereby the control signal is generated.
- Each of the sensor switches is connected to an evaluation unit, which monitors whether a control signal is generated by the sensor circuit or not.
- each of the sensor switches is covered by the palm of the hand.
- the capacitive design of the sensor switch is thus caused by the embrace of the joystick, a capacitance change.
- the sensor switch is designed as a light barrier, the user's hand reflects the emitted light, whereby there is also permanent monitoring of the grip area of the control stick by means of light sensors.
- the evaluation unit can independently generate a signal by which it can be verified that the evaluation unit is functioning properly. As soon as the evaluation unit no longer works due to faults or other damage, this signal is not generated, so that a malfunction, due to the fact that the evaluation unit is damaged, is not given, because the device is only fully activated if both the control signal the respective sensor switch as well as the signal of the respective evaluation unit is present.
- the signals thus generated are transmitted to the printed circuit board, which is integrated in the housing of the joystick, and evaluated, for example, by a mounted on the circuit board microprocessor or other control circuit.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 is a device 1 can be seen, which consists of a housing 3 and a used in this and against the housing 3 deflectable joystick 4.
- the device 1 is intended to be on the joystick. 4 to convert acting manual movements into electrically evaluable control signals to control by means of these control signals a crane system, a cursor on a computer screen or other machinery.
- FIG. 1 It is shown that the joystick 4 is supported in a schematically designed bearing 10, so that the joystick 4 can be deflected both a rotational movement about the bearing 10 and two tilting movements in the X and Y direction, which together form a plane.
- These movements of the joystick 4 are measured by commercially available Hall sensors 7, because the Hall sensors are constructed such that a first part of the respective Hall sensor 7 is fixedly connected to the joystick 4, whereas a second part of the Hall sensor 7 is firmly integrated in the housing 3 and thus the relative movement between the two parts of the Hall sensor 7, which correspond to the deflection of the joystick 4, are measurable.
- the control signals thus generated by the Hall sensors 7 are forwarded to a microprocessor 6 which is electrically coupled to a printed circuit board 5.
- the circuit board 5 and the microprocessor 6 are also firmly installed in the housing 3.
- the movements of the Hall sensor 7 are accordingly converted into electrical control signals, by means of which, for example, a crane installation or a cursor on a computer screen can be moved in corresponding directions.
- These control signals are transmitted via a plurality of lines 8, which are connected via an interface 9 with the circuit board 5, to the corresponding system.
- the sensor switches 11 consist of a translucent or of a metallic plate which is integrated in the outer circumferential surface of the joystick 4 ,. If a metallic plate is used as the sensor switch 11, the measured capacitive changes, which result when the joystick 4 is grasped by the hand of a user. These capacitive changes are determined by an electrical evaluation unit, so that a control signal 13 is produced.
- one or more light emitting diodes emit light waves that pass through the translucent panel of the sensor switch 11 and are reflected by the user's hand when it has gripped the joystick 4. These reflections can also be determined via evaluation electronics, and consequently the control signals 13 are generated.
- control signals 13 respectively generated by the sensor switch 11 are electrically transmitted to an evaluation unit 12, which is installed in the joystick 4.
- the evaluation unit 12 is measured whether all integrated in the joystick 4 sensor switch 11 provide a corresponding control signal 13 and only when the control signals 13 are detected by all built-in sensor switches 11 by the evaluation unit 12, through this the circuit board 5 and / or the microprocessor. 6 enabled, so that the transmitted from the joystick 4 movements are passed to the machinery.
- the evaluation unit 12 does not release the printed circuit board 5 or the microprocessor 6, so that the deflections of the joystick 4 thus generated are not forwarded to the machine system become.
- the machinery is only ready for operation when a corresponding control signal 13 has been detected by the evaluation unit 12. This means that the more sensor switches 11 installed in the joystick 4, the more higher accuracy and thus the error rate for inadvertent operation of the joystick 4 is avoided.
- FIG. 2 is the in FIG. 1 explained device 1 technically further developed to prevent additional malfunction, which can be done for example by damage in the electronics of the evaluation unit 12.
- a control signal 13 is transmitted from the respective sensor switches 11 to the evaluation unit 12, but each of the evaluation units 12 is assigned to a specific sensor switch 11 and electrically coupled thereto.
- the respective evaluation unit 12 generates a measurement signal 14, which is also detected by a second evaluation unit 12.
- the circuit diagram shown refers to an electrical circuit 2 which can be used for a total of 3 built in the joystick 4 sensor switch 11.
- the functioning and the constructional structure correspond to those in FIG. 2 illustrated embodiment.
- the first evaluation unit 12 thus detects the control signal 13 which is generated by the respective sensor switch 11 when the control stick 4 is properly gripped around.
- the measuring signal 14 is generated by the first evaluation unit 12. Both signals are detected by the second evaluation unit 12 and when it has been determined by these that all control and measurement signals 13 and 14 are present, the circuit of the circuit 2 is enabled.
- the joystick 4 is moved substantially in one plane from a central position and can optionally also be rotated about a fixed bearing point.
- the joystick 4 'the FIG. 4b should in addition to the functions of the joystick 4 of the FIG. 4a can also be moved in the direction of the housing 3, for example, to signal an input confirmation of the control movements or to make a movement by entering a defined control command in the direction of the housing 3.
- the in Figure 4c The control stick 4 "is designed to be spherical and has a total of three sensor switches 11 which are aligned perpendicular to one another.
- the control stick 4" should not only be moved in one plane and about its bearing point, but should also be moved to other degrees of freedom, for example perpendicular relative to the housing 3, to be movable.
