Ein solcher Betätigungssensor dient dazu, die Betätigung des Möbelteils durch einen Benutzer zu erfassen, wobei insbesondere eine solche Betätigung des Möbelteils gemeint ist, mit der der Benutzer ein Öffnen des jeweiligen Möbels, z. B. durch Herausfahren des beweglichen Möbelteils aus dem Möbelkorpus, auszulösen versucht. Bei dieser Betätigung verlagert der Benutzer das Möbelteil wahlweise zu dem Möbelkorpus hin oder von diesem weg, wobei beide Arten der Betätigung von dem Sensor in gleicher Weise aber auch in unterschiedlicher Weise erfasst werden können, so dass er unabhängig von der Art der Betätigung ein selbes oder abhängig von der Art der Betätigung zwei unterschiedliche Signale ausgibt. Diese Signale werden dann üblicherweise an einen Auslösemechanismus oder einen Antrieb für das bewegliche Möbelteil weitergegeben.Such an actuation sensor serves to detect the actuation of the furniture part by a user, in particular such actuation of the furniture part is meant, with which the user opens the respective furniture, z. B. by moving out of the movable furniture part from the furniture body, trying to trigger. In this operation, the user moves the furniture part either to the furniture body or away from this, both types of operation of the sensor in the same way but also can be detected in different ways, so that he regardless of the type of operation a same or depending on the type of operation outputs two different signals.

Ein Betätigungssensor mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1 ist aus der
Nachteilig bei dem bekannten Betätigungssensor ist, dass dieser einen aufwändigen und damit fehleranfälligen Aufbau aufweist, um unabhängig von der Ausgangsstellung des Möbelteils dessen Betätigung erfassen zu können. Auf diese Eigenschaft kann aber nicht verzichtet werden, da ansonsten das Tastelement an der Rückseite des beweglichen Möbelteils in aufwändiger Weise gegenüber der durch die Endlagenbegrenzer des Möbelteils an anderer Stelle definierten Ausgangsstellung des Möbelteils justiert werden müsste.A disadvantage of the known actuation sensor, that this has a complex and thus error-prone construction in order to detect its operation independently of the starting position of the furniture part. But this property can not be waived, otherwise the probe element on the back of the movable furniture part would have to be adjusted in a complex manner relative to the defined by the Endlagenbegrenzer of the furniture part elsewhere starting position of the furniture part.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Betätigungssensor mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1 sowie einen Ausziehbeschlag und ein Möbel mit einem solchen Betätigungssensor aufzuzeigen, die einen einfachen Aufbau und damit eine hohe Funktionssicherheit aufweisen aber gleichzeitig auch eine einfache Einstellung der Ausgangsstellung des beweglichen Möbelteil erlauben.The invention has for its object to provide an actuating sensor with the features of the preamble of independent claim 1 and a Ausziehbeschlag and a piece of furniture with such an actuation sensor, which have a simple structure and thus high reliability but at the same time a simple adjustment of the starting position of the movable Allow furniture part.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch einen Betätigungssensor mit den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1, einen Ausziehbeschlag mit einem solchen Betätigungssensor und den Merkmalen des nebengeordneten Patentanspruchs 13 und ein Möbel mit einem solchen Betätigungssensor und den Merkmalen des nebengeordneten Patentanspruchs 15 gelöst. Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen dieser Erfindungen sind in den abhängigen Patentansprüchen definiert.According to the invention, this object is achieved by an actuation sensor having the features of independent claim 1, a pull-out fitting having such an actuation sensor and the features of
Bei dem neuen Betätigungssensor stützen sich das Ausrichtelement, das mit seiner Grundstellung die Ausgangsstellung des Möbelteils definiert, und das Tastelement, das den Bewegungen des Möbelteils aus seiner Ausgangsstellung folgt, an einer gemeinsamen Sensorgrundstruktur ab, die an dem Möbelkorpus festlegbar ist. Die gemeinsame Sensorgrundstruktur stellt einen gemeinsamen Bezug für die Grundstellung des Ausrichtelements und damit die von diesem definierte Ausgangsstellung des beweglichen Möbelteils einerseits und die Auslenkung des Tastelements durch das Möbelteil andererseits bereit. Eine Veränderung der Ausgangsstellung des Möbelteils durch eine Veränderung der Grundstellung des Ausrichtelements wirkt sich damit nicht in eine Auslenkung des Tastelements aus, wie sie bei einer Bewegung des Möbelteils aus seiner Ausgangsstellung heraus erfolgt. D. h., das Tastelement nimmt in seiner Anlage an dem in seiner Ausgangsstellung befindlichen beweglichen Möbelteil eine Nulllage ein, die sich bei Variation der Ausgangsstellung nicht ändert. So kann die Ausgangsstellung des Möbelteils, die in der Regel auch die Schließstellung des Möbelteils ist, z. B. in Bezug auf andere Möbelteile beliebig festgelegt werden, ohne dass dies irgendeine Auswirkung auf die Funktion des neuen Betätigungssensors hat. Dies erlaubt es, die Bewegungen des Tastelements mit sehr einfachen Mitteln abzufragen, um ein Signal zu generieren, das Bewegungen des Möbelteils aus seiner Ausgangsstellung anzeigt.In the new actuation sensor, the alignment element, which defines the starting position of the furniture part with its basic position, and the feeler element, which follows the movements of the furniture part from its starting position, are based on a common sensor base structure which can be fixed to the furniture body. The common sensor base structure provides a common reference for the basic position of the alignment element and thus the initial position of the movable furniture part defined by this on the one hand and the deflection of the probe element by the furniture part on the other hand ready. A change in the starting position of the furniture part by a change in the basic position of the aligning does not affect it in a deflection of the probe element, as it takes place during a movement of the furniture part from its initial position. D. h., The probe element takes in its investment in the located in its initial position movable furniture part a zero position, which does not change in variation of the starting position. Thus, the starting position of the furniture part, which is usually the closed position of the furniture part, z. B. be arbitrarily set with respect to other furniture parts, without this having any effect on the function of the new operation sensor. This makes it possible to interrogate the movements of the probe element with very simple means to generate a signal indicating movements of the furniture part from its initial position.
Bei dem neuen Betätigungssensor kann das Tastelement eine mechanisch fest definierte Nulllage auf Höhe der definierten Stellung des Ausrichtelements aufweisen, wobei der Betätigungssensor ein Signal abgibt, wenn das Tastelement diese Nulllage verlässt. Zum Erfassen dieses Verlassens dieser Nulllage sind einfachste elektrische Mittel ausreichend, da diese Nulllage mechanisch fest ist und sich weder bei zufälligen noch willkürlichen Variationen der Ausgangsstellung des Möbelteils ändert.In the new actuation sensor, the probe element may have a mechanically fixed zero position at the level of the defined position of the alignment element, wherein the actuation sensor emits a signal when the probe element leaves this zero position. To detect this leaving this zero position simplest electrical means are sufficient, since this zero position is mechanically fixed and does not change in random or arbitrary variations of the starting position of the furniture part.
Bei besonders bevorzugten Varianten des neuen Betätigungssensors sind die Grundstellung des Ausrichtelements und die Nulllage des Tastelements gemeinsam gegenüber der Sensorgrundstruktur und damit dem jeweiligen Möbelkorpus einstellbar. Auch durch diese Einstellbarkeit gehen die voranstehend geschilderten Vorteile des neuen Betätigungssensors nicht verloren, weil die Kopplung der Nulllage des Tastelements an die Grundstellung des Ausrichtelements beim nur gemeinsamen Einstellen der Grundstellung des Ausrichtelements und der Nulllage des Tastelements weiterhin Bestand hat.In particularly preferred variants of the new actuation sensor, the basic position of the alignment element and the zero position of the probe element are mutually adjustable relative to the sensor base structure and thus the respective furniture body. Also by this adjustability, the above-described advantages of the new actuation sensor are not lost, because the coupling of the zero position of the probe element to the basic position of the alignment only in common setting the basic position of the alignment and the zero position of the probe element has continued.
Konkret kann bei dem neuen Betätigungssensor die Lage eines Sockelelements gegenüber der Sensorgrundstruktur einstellbar sein, wobei an dem Sockelelement der die Grundstellung des Ausrichtelements definierende Anschlag für das Ausrichtelement und mindestens ein Auslenkungssensor für Auslenkungen des Tastelements aus seiner Nulllage vorgesehen sind.Specifically, in the new actuation sensor, the position of a base element relative to the sensor base structure be adjustable, being provided on the base element of the basic position of the alignment element defining stop for the alignment and at least one deflection sensor for deflections of the probe element from its zero position.
Zur Steigerung seiner Ansprechempfindlichkeit gegenüber kleinen Auslenkungen des Tastelements kann der Auslenkungssensor eine mechanische Übersetzung für die Auslenkungen des Tastelements aufweisen. Hierbei kann es sich um ein Hebel- oder Zahnradgetriebe handeln, das eine kleine Auslenkung des Tastelements in einen größeren, einfacher zu erfassenden Weg eines Sensorelements übersetzt.To increase its responsiveness to small deflections of the probe element, the deflection sensor may have a mechanical translation for the deflections of the probe element. This can be a lever or Act gear that translates a small deflection of the probe element in a larger, easier to detect way of a sensor element.
Der Auslenkungssensor kann einen einfachen Druckschalter aufweisen, der nur in der Nulllage des Tastelements gedrückt oder nicht gedrückt ist. Es können auch zwei Druckschalter vorgesehen sein, die in der Nulllage des Tastelements gedrückt sind und von denen jeweils einer beim Verlassen der Nulllage in einer Richtung nicht gedrückt bleibt, oder die in der Nulllage des Tastelements beide nicht gedrückt sind und von denen einer beim Verlassen der Nulllage in eine Richtung gedrückt wird, so dass der Betätigungssensor nicht nur anzeigt, dass das Tastelement seine Nulllage und damit das bewegliche Möbelteil seiner Ausgangsstellung verlässt, sondern auch in welcher Richtung dies geschieht.The deflection sensor may comprise a simple pressure switch which is pressed or not pressed only in the zero position of the probe element. It can also be provided two pressure switch, which are pressed in the zero position of the probe element and of which one is not pressed when leaving the zero position in one direction, or both are not pressed in the zero position of the probe element and one of which when leaving the Zero position is pressed in one direction, so that the actuation sensor not only indicates that the sensing element leaves its zero position and thus the movable furniture part of its initial position, but also in which direction this happens.
Zum Drücken eines oder mehrerer Druckschalter kann eine Steuerkurve vorgesehen sein, die unmittelbar an dem Tastelement oder an einem einen größeren Weg zurücklegenden Sensorelement ausgebildet sein kann.For pressing one or more pressure switches, a control cam can be provided which can be formed directly on the feeler element or on a sensor element covering a larger path.
Ein Auslenkungssensor für das Tastelement kann anstelle mehrerer Druckschalter auch andere Mittel zum Erfassen der Richtung der Ausnehmung des Tastelements aufweisen oder gar die Geschwindigkeit der Auslenkung des Tastelements erfassen, wenn hieraus für die Funktion des jeweiligen Möbels wichtige Signale generiert werden können. So kann der Auslenkungssensor ein mit den Auslenkungen des Tastelements in Rotation versetztes Sensorrad aufweisen. Derartige Sensorräder sind elektronische Standardbauteile und werden vielfach, z. B. als Lautstärkeregler oder Frequenzwahlelemente in Radios verwendet.A deflection sensor for the probe element may instead of a plurality of pressure switches also have other means for detecting the direction of the recess of the probe element or even detect the speed of the deflection of the probe element, if important signals can be generated from this for the function of the respective furniture. Thus, the deflection sensor may have a with the deflections of the probe element in rotation offset sensor wheel. Such sensor wheels are standard electronic components and are often, z. B. used as a volume control or frequency selectors in radios.
Bei einem besonders kompakten Aufbau des neuen Betätigungssensors ist das Tastelement koaxial innerhalb des rohrförmig ausgebildeten Ausrichtelements angeordnet. Dabei kann sich das Tastelement durch eine Druckfeder zur Bereitstellung der Rückstellkraft auf das Ausrichtelement hindurch erstrecken. Weiter kann das Tastelement seinerseits von einer an seinem hinteren Ende anliegenden Druckfeder mit der Anlagekraft an das bewegliche Möbelteil beaufschlagt werden.In a particularly compact design of the new actuation sensor, the probe element is arranged coaxially within the tubular alignment element. In this case, the feeler element can extend through a compression spring for providing the restoring force to the alignment element. Next, the probe element in turn can be acted upon by a voltage applied to its rear end compression spring with the contact force to the movable furniture part.
Umgekehrt ist es auch möglich, das Ausrichtelement koaxial innerhalb des rohrförmig ausgebildeten Tastelements anzuordnen, wobei sich dann das Ausrichtelement durch eine Druckfeder zur Bereitstellung der Anlagekraft des Tastelements an das bewegliche Möbelteil hindurch erstreckt und seinerseits von einer an seinem hinteren Ende anliegenden Druckfeder mit der Rückstellkraft gegen seinen Anschlag beaufschlagt wird.Conversely, it is also possible to arrange the alignment coaxially within the tubular sensing element, in which case the alignment by a compression spring to provide the contact force of the probe element to the movable furniture part extends and in turn is acted upon by its abutting force against its stop by a voltage applied to its rear end compression spring.
Wenn das Ausrichtelement mit einem Dämpfer für seine Bewegung kombiniert wird, kann auf einen zusätzlichen Dämpfer für das bewegliche Möbelteil verzichtet werden. Ein solcher Dämpfer kann z. B. dadurch ausgebildet werden, dass das Ausrichtelement eine Zahnstange aufweist und der Dämpfer ein einseitig wirkender Rotationsdämpfer ist, der ein die Zahnstange kämmendes Zahnrad aufweist.If the alignment element is combined with a damper for its movement, can be dispensed with an additional damper for the movable furniture part. Such a damper can, for. B. be formed in that the alignment element has a rack and the damper is a single-acting rotary damper having a rack meshing gear.
Besonders bevorzugt sind solche Ausführungsformen des neuen Betätigungssensors, bei denen die Sensorgrundstruktur ein Gehäuse für einen Antrieb oder einen Ausstoßer für das Möbelteil ist, der in Abhängigkeit von einem Signal des Betätigungssensors aktiviert wird. Damit sind nicht nur das Ausrichtelement und das Tastelement und ein diesem zugeordneter Auslenkungssensor sondern auch der von diesem ausgelöste Antrieb oder Ausstoßer zu einer Baueinheit zusammengefasst. Diese Baueinheit wird am Möbelkorpus festgelegt, entweder direkt in einer solchen Stellung, die der gewünschten Stellung des beweglichen Möbelteils entspricht, oder es ist die bereits beschriebene gemeinsame Einstellbarkeit des Ausrichtelements und des Tastelements gegeben, um die Ausgangsstellung des beweglichen Möbelteils gegenüber dem Korpus einzustellen.Particularly preferred are those embodiments of the new actuation sensor, in which the sensor base structure is a housing for a drive or an ejector for the furniture part, which is activated in response to a signal of the actuation sensor. Thus, not only the alignment element and the probe element and a deflection sensor associated therewith but also the drive or ejector triggered by this are combined to form a structural unit. This assembly is fixed to the furniture body, either directly in such a position that corresponds to the desired position of the movable furniture part, or it is given the already described common adjustability of the alignment and the probe element to adjust the starting position of the movable furniture part relative to the body.
Ein neuer Ausziehbeschlag für ein Möbel mit einem Möbelkorpus und einem gegenüber dem Möbelkorpus beweglichen Möbelteil, mit einer mehrteiligen Ausziehschiene, die eine erste Schiene zur Befestigung an dem Möbelkorpus einerseits und eine letzte Schiene zur Abstützung des Möbelteils andererseits aufweist, und mit einem neuen Betätigungssensor ist vorzugsweise so ausgebildet, dass das Ausrichtelement und das Tastelement zur Anlage an einem von der letzten Schiene seitlich abstehenden Ausleger vorgesehen sind. Sie wirken damit zwischen Teilen des Beschlags und damit beispielsweise nicht unmittelbar auf eine Front an dem Möbelteil. So kann die Front unabhängig von dem Betätigungssensor in ihren Winkellagen gegenüber der letzten Schiene und damit letztlich gegenüber dem Möbelkorpus justiert werden. Weiterhin ist es möglich, den Betätigungssensor von der Front weg weiter in das Innere des Möbelkorpus und damit in einen geschützten Bereich zu verlegen.A new Ausziehbeschlag for a piece of furniture with a furniture body and a relative to the furniture body movable furniture part, with a multi-part pull-out, which has a first rail for attachment to the furniture body on the one hand and a last rail for supporting the furniture part on the other hand, and with a new operation sensor is preferably designed so that the alignment element and the probe element are provided for abutment on a laterally projecting from the last rail boom. They thus act between parts of the fitting and thus, for example, not directly on a front of the furniture part. Thus, the front can be adjusted independently of the actuation sensor in their angular positions relative to the last rail and thus ultimately to the furniture body. Furthermore, it is possible to move the actuation sensor further away from the front into the interior of the furniture body and thus into a protected area.
Auch der Antrieb oder Ausstoßer für das Möbelteil kann an dem von der letzten Schiene seitlich abstehenden Ausleger angreifen, so dass die vorstehenden Vorteile auch für den Antrieb bzw. Ausstoßer gelten.Also, the drive or ejector for the furniture part can attack on the side of the last rail projecting boom, so that the above advantages also apply to the drive or ejector.

In
Das Ausrichtelement 15 stützt das Möbelteil 13 entgegen der Einziehkraft 14 in seiner Ausgangsstellung ab. Koaxial durch das rohrförmige Ausrichtelement 15 verläuft ein Tastelement 19, wobei das Tastelement 19 auch durch die Druckfeder 17 und deren rückwärtige Abstützung 20 hindurch nach hinten verläuft. Das Tastelement 19 wird an seinem hinteren Ende durch eine Druckfeder 21 in Richtung auf das Möbelteil 13 beaufschlagt, und es kann sich aus seiner gezeigten Nullstellung, in der es an dem Möbelteil 13 in dessen Ausgangsstellung anliegt, sowohl entgegen der Einziehkraft 14 als auch in deren Richtung bewegen. So folgt es dem Möbelteil 13 sowohl dann, wenn dieses entgegen der Rückstellkraft 16, d. h. mit dem Ausrichtelement 15 entgegen der Druckfeder 17 weiter in Richtung der Einziehkraft 14 gedrückt wird, als auch dann, wenn das Möbeiteil 13 entgegen der Einziehkraft 14 von dem Ausrichtelement 15, das aufgrund des Anschlags 18 nicht weiter in Richtung der Rückstellkraft 16 vortreten kann, entfernt wird. So zeigt die Bewegung des Tastelements 19 an, dass das Möbelteil 13 seine dargestellte Ausgangsstellung verlässt, was ein Hinweis darauf ist, dass ein Benutzer wünscht, dass das Möbelteil 13 aus dem jeweiligen Korpus herausgebracht wird. Dieser Wunsch wird durch einen Auslenkungssensor 31 mit einem Mikroschalter 22 registriert, dessen Schaltelement 23 von einem von zwei einander entgegen gerichteten Schaltnocken 24 einer Steuerkurve 42 an dem Tastelement 19 betätigt wird, sobald das Tastelement 19 seine dargestellte Nulllage in Richtung oder entgegen der Richtung der Einziehkraft 14 um ein gewisses Maß verlassen hat. Beim Einstellen der Lage des Sockelelements 3 gegenüber der Sensorgrundstruktur 1 wird die entsprechende Nulllage des Tastelements 19, in der der Mikroschalter 22 nicht gedrückt ist, zusammen der dargestellten Grundstellung des Ausrichtelements 15 verstellt, so dass sich das Tastelement 19 unabhängig von der Einstellung des Sockelelements 3 immer dann in seiner Nullstellung befindet, wenn das Tastelement 19 vorne mit dem Ausrichtelement 15 abschließt. Wenn der Mikrotaster 22 gedrückt wird, kann hierdurch z. B. ein Ausstoßer für das Möbelteil 13 aktiviert werden.The
