Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of electrical switches for motor vehicles and in particular motor vehicle steering wheel switch assembly switches.
  • weak current refers to a current intended to diffuse, collect or exchange information in the form of electrical signals.
  • the currents involved are sometimes very low (a few mA to a few ⁇ A).
  • strong current designates a current capable of supplying electrical energy, especially for lighting, heating and motive power functions (lamps, resistors, motors, etc.).
  • the currents involved are of the order of a few hundred mA to several A.
  • control assembly switches and in particular the sub-steering controls, have a very high degree of modularity and can thus be easily swapped according to the wishes of the customer.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a motor vehicle electrical switching device having a greater modularity.
  • the subject of the invention is a contactor carriage intended to be mounted mobile in translation in an electric switch of a motor vehicle, preferably in a set of sub-steering controls, for establishing, as a function of a control a user, an electrical contact for one or more predefined positions of the path of said carriage, comprising at least one electrical contact location, characterized in that it comprises a first housing for receiving a strong current contact element, and a second housing for receiving a low current contactor element, so that an electrical contact is likely to be established at said location either by the establishment of a strong current contactor element, or by the establishment of a low current contactor element in the associated housing.
  • the invention also relates to an electric switch of a set of controls for a motor vehicle, characterized in that it comprises a contactor carriage as defined above, and in that it further comprises at least one contact element with low or high current so as to establish, according to a user command, an electrical contact at one or more given positions in the path of said carriage.
  • Another subject of the invention is a resilient low-current contact blade intended to be put into place in a housing of a contactor carriage as defined above, in order to establish, in function of a user's control, an electrical contact. for one or more predefined positions of the path of said carriage, comprising at least one electrical contact location, so that an electrical contact is likely to be established at said location, characterized in that it has the shape of a fork having at least two branches capable of establishing two simultaneous electrical contacts and in that each branch has a curved end.
  • the Figures 1 and 2 illustrate a portion of an electric switch 1 of a motor vehicle, such as that of a set of controls for a motor vehicle undercarriage.
  • the switch 1 comprises a contactor carriage 3 mounted to be movable in translation, for example by means of a slideway 5, on a conductive electrical track set 7 of a printed circuit board 9 (see FIG. figure 2 ).
  • the translational movement of the contactor carriage 3 establishes, as a function of a user's command, an electrical contact for one or more predefined positions of the path of the carriage 3.
  • At least one low-current contactor element 11 or strong element 12 is placed in a housing 15, 17 of the carriage 3.
  • a switch 1 comprising a single low-current contactor element 11, ( figure 4 ) or two weak current elements 11 ( figures 1 and 5 ).
  • a switch 1 comprising one or two high current contactor elements 12 ( figure 6 ).
  • the electrical contact modifying the switching states is established at at least one electrical contact location 13, by rubbing contacting elements 11 or 12 opposite the electrical tracks 7.
  • the contactor carriage 3 comprises a first housing 15 intended to receive a high-current contactor element 12, and a second housing 17 intended to receive a low-current contactor element 11, so that an electrical contact is likely to be established at the location 13 is by the establishment of a high current contactor element 12, or by the establishment of a low current contactor element 11 in the associated housing 15, 17.
  • the carriage 3 is provided with a first latching means 19 ( figure 7 ) intended to cooperate with a second complementary latching means 21 carried by the contacting element 11, 12, for releasably fixing the contacting element 11, 12 with the carriage 3.
  • the first latching means 19 advantageously comprises a protuberance or a hole. In the embodiment illustrated by the figure 7 , the first latching means 19 comprises a hooking protrusion.
  • the first housing 15 is defined for example by at least two slots 23 for cooperating with a corresponding high current contactor element 12.
  • the high-current contactor element 12 comprises a contactor bridge 25 ( figure 9 ).
  • the contactor bridge 25 comprises two protrusions 26 able to establish two simultaneous electrical contacts at the locations 13 ( figure 9 ).
  • the two simultaneous contacts make it possible to double the switching function, thus making it possible to improve the switching security of the switch 1.
  • the first latching means 21 of the high-current contactor element 12 is advantageously formed by two complementary protuberances carried by the flanges of the bridge 25 on the outer faces.
  • the high-current contactor element 12 comprises a resilient return spring 27 of the contactor bridge 25 arranged between the arch of the bridge 25 and the carriage 3.
  • the bridge 25 is constantly biased elastically against the tracks of the circuit 7.
  • the second housing 17 is defined by at least one slot 29 intended to cooperate with a corresponding low-current contactor element 11, such as an elastic contact blade, so that an electrical contact is likely to be established at location 13.
  • the resilient blade 11 advantageously has a first end movable pivotally in the form of a fork for establishing an electrical contact.
  • the second end is intended to be housed in the slot 29 to maintain the contactor element 11 in the carriage 3.
  • the two ends meet at an angle substantially greater than a right angle, obtained for example by folding the blade 11.
  • the end intended to establish an electrical contact is resiliently biased against the tracks of the electrical circuit.
  • the first fork-shaped end has at least two branches 31 able to establish two simultaneous electrical contacts.
  • the two simultaneous electrical contacts are provided in the low-current contactor element 11 for switching security.
  • each branch 31 comprises at least two contactor arms 33 and each branch 31 or contactor arm 33 has a curved end 35.
  • the spacing between the two branches 31 depends on the spacing between the electrical tracks% of the control device.
  • the spacing between the two branches 31 is not the same for the two weak current contactor elements 11. It corresponds to the particular arrangement of the conductive tracks 7 of the lower electrical circuit.
  • the spacing is the same between the two branches 31 of two separate resilient blades 11 mounted in the switch 1, which facilitates the realization ( figure 5 ).
  • the first latching means 21 of the contactor element 11 is advantageously formed by at least one, and preferably two elastic hooks adapted to cooperate with the hooking protrusion 19 of the carriage 3.
  • the hooks are cut directly into the elastic blade 11.
  • the first housings 15 intended for the high-current contacting elements 12 are located on the edges of the carriage 3 relative to the second housings 17 intended for the contact elements to be connected.
  • a modular electrical switching device 1 comprising a contactor carriage 3 comprising a first housing 1 intended to receive a high-current contactor element 12, and a second housing 17 intended to receive a low-current contactor element 11, so that that an electrical contact is likely to be established in the location 13 is by the introduction of a high current contactor element 12, or by the establishment of a low current contactor element 11 in the housing 15, 17 associated, allowing to provide a choice of a low current or high current electrical contact, without having to completely change the switch, and therefore the sub-flying joystick that contains it.
