Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switching disk for an electromechanical timer with programming elements and with a one-part or multi-part programming element carrier, which is suitable and adapted to pivotally store the programming elements between a first and a second end position.
  • the first end position corresponds to a possible first programming and the second end position of a possible second programming of the switching disk.
  • the programming elements each have a first display and operating section.
  • the position of the programming element and thus the programming can be indicated by the display and actuation section.
  • pivoting of the programming element into the first or second end position and thus programming of the indexing disk by a user is possible by means of the first display and operating section.
  • time switches In electromechanical time switches come in the prior art, two different types of switching discs as memory for the programming of the timer used.
  • time switches In particularly cramped space conditions, such as prevail, for example, in electrical distributions, time switches are often used having indexing disks whose axes of rotation is arranged parallel to the front surface inside the clock, allowing the user to look from the outside on the lateral surface of the switching disc, if a corresponding Window is provided in the housing of the timer.
  • the user can then recognize the visible through the window programming elements of the switching disc and optionally change by force the position of the programming elements to program the switching disc.
  • the programming is done by a Moving the programming elements along an axis which is parallel to the axis of rotation of the indexing disk. It is therefore in such a case of an axial displacement or axial actuation of the programming elements.
  • a switching disc with axial actuation is for example from the publication with the publication number DE 38 25 267 A1 known.
  • the second known type of switching discs is provided for mounting in the time switch, wherein the axis of rotation is aligned perpendicular to the front side of the timer.
  • the user can then read the position of the programming elements and thus the programming of the switching disc by looking at an end face of the switching disc.
  • the programming of the programming elements is carried out by radial displacement of the programming elements in one of the two end positions. It is therefore spoken of a radial displacement or by a radial actuation of the programming elements.
  • Switch discs with radial actuation of the programming element are for example from the document EP 0 043 900 B1 known.
  • samplers When operating a switching disk in a timer, samplers are used to implement the programming of the programming elements in switching information.
  • These scraper elements which are usually mounted parallel to the axis of rotation pivotally mounted shift lever buttons, scan the position of the display and operating sections of the programming elements.
  • the sensing elements are pressed with a spring force radially inwardly against the outer peripheral surface of the indexing disk or the programming elements arranged there.
  • the latching force which the Programming elements in one of the two end positions holds, must be greater than the scanning force of the sensing element, because otherwise the sensing element with the force applied by the sensing element sensing force could move the programming element in the other end position.
  • the latching force with which the programming elements are held in the outer end position must not be so high that it unnecessarily impedes manual operation of the rather small programming elements by a user.
  • the two conflicting demands on the radial displacement and the applied forces make it necessary that the usually made of plastic parts of the switching disc must be made with very tight, small tolerances, which makes the preparation of the various parts of the switching disc consuming.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a switching disc, which can be used both for switching discs with radial actuation of the programming elements and as a switching disc with axial actuation of the programming elements on the one hand.
  • a radial scanning of the indexing disk on the display and Operating sections of the programming elements may be possible without the risk arises that the programming elements are actuated radially by the scanning force.
  • a switching disk having the features of claim 1.
  • the programming element of a switching disk according to the preamble in each case second display and operating sections, which indicate the position of the programming element and allow pivoting of the programming element in the first or second end position by a user.
  • second display and actuation sections may be provided for the radial actuation of the programming elements, while the first display and actuation sections of the
  • Programming elements are provided for the axial actuation of the programming elements. If the radial scanning force acts only on the first axially adjustable display and operating portions of the programming elements, a radial actuation of the programming elements can be effectively prevented by the scanning force.
  • the first display and operating sections are particularly important for timers in which the indexing disc is mounted with its axis of rotation parallel to the front of the time switch, while the second display and operating portions of the programming elements for timers are significant in which the axis of rotation perpendicular to the front of the timers runs.
  • the switching disk according to the invention is advantageously suitable and arranged such that the first display and operating sections in the direction of the lateral surface of the indexing disk indicate to a user the position of the programming elements and enable the programming elements to be actuated via the lateral surface.
  • the universal nature of the switching disc is particularly clear when the switching disc is suitable and set up that the second display and operating sections in the direction of a first face or second face of the switching disc a user indicate the position of the programming elements and the first end face or second end allow actuation of the programming elements.
  • a switching disk according to the invention can be designed such that the programming element carrier has one or more recesses, from which protrude the first display and operating sections and / or the second display and operating sections.

  • the indexing disk can have a time scale both on the lateral surface and on the first end side and / or the second end side. This also makes the universal usability of the switching disc both for mounting in a timer with the axis of rotation parallel to the front and with the axis of rotation perpendicular to the front clearly.
