Definitions

  • the invention relates to an operating device with a handle, which is manually deflected from a rest position relative to an axis, wherein the handle rotatable about the axis and / or axially displaceable relative to the axis and / or with respect to the axis and / or transversely to the axis is displaceable, with a sensor for detecting the deflection of the handle and with a Haptik coupled, by the handle in response to the deflection of the handle can be acted upon by a haptic detectable effect.
  • Such an operating device is from the DE 103 04 804 A1 known.
  • the DE 10 2004 022 847 A1 describes an electrical switch which is pivotable about a pivot position and in which by means of magnetic means can be made a haptic feedback.
  • the US 2006/012584 A1 describes a turntable with a rotation axis, wherein the turntable is linearly movable along the rotation axis, wherein the turntable is connected to an actuator and by means of this actuator, a force on the turntable is exercisable and haptic feedback can be generated.
  • the DE 10 2006 028 228 A1 describes a turntable which is tiltably mounted.
  • the handle is deflectable in two or more deflection, so that a larger selection of vehicle functionality can be controlled.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an operating device of the type mentioned above, which allows detection of a deflection from the rest position and a haptic feedback with a simple structure having a small size.
  • This object is achieved in that the handle is firmly connected to an actuator, through which the handle in response to its deflection by a movement path ⁇ 1 mm is movable in one degree of freedom alternately driven.
  • the handle is alternately drivable axially movable axially to the axis.
  • the handle with a frequency> 100 Hz can be driven in an alternating manner in one degree of freedom, then the haptic takes place in a perception frequency range in which the detection of the direction of excitation of the haptic is difficult or even impossible.
  • the handle can be driven alternately axially with respect to the axis for each type of deflection with a different rhythm pattern.
  • the handle about the path of movement ⁇ 0.5 mm alternately axially movable to the axis is driven.
  • the actuator may be a rotationally symmetrical lifting armature, the lifting armature is firmly connected to the handle and the axis of movement alternately driven axially movable to the movement path.
  • the handle In order to reset the handle after an operation both in its rest position and to hold in this rest position, the handle can be deflected against a spring restoring force or spring return forces from its rest position relative to the axis.
  • electrical signals can be generated by the sensor as a function of the deflection of the handle and can be supplied to an electronic control unit in accordance with a drive signal for driving the actuator can be generated.
  • the deflection of the handle of optical sensors or magnetic-field-sensitive sensors can be detected.
  • a diametrically magnetized permanent magnet ring can be driven to be movable, which is aligned in a first plane perpendicular to the axis, in the magnetic field region of which a plurality of magnetic-field-sensitive sensor elements are arranged in a stationary second plane, which is in the position of rest in the handle extends perpendicular to the axis.
  • the permanent magnet is firmly connected to the actuator or the handle, so that a structural unit of handle, actuator and permanent magnet is formed by the required space kept low and the assembly is simplified.
  • the magnetic-field-sensitive sensor elements are arranged at a uniform angular distance and the same radial distance from the axis when the handle is in the rest position, this results in a simple construction with few components and a small space requirement.
  • the magnetic field-sensitive sensor elements Hall sensors.
  • a simplification of the line connections of the sensor elements is achieved in that the magnetic field-sensitive sensor elements are arranged on a printed circuit board, wherein on the circuit board and the control electronics can be arranged.
  • the illustrated operating device has a handle 1, which is deflectable from its illustrated rest position relative to an axis 2 in at least two of the following deflection.
  • the handle 1 is rotatable about the axis 2, axially displaceable relative to the axis 2, with respect to the axis 2 tiltable and transversely to the axis 2 to be displaced.
  • an actuator 3 Coaxially on the handle 1, an actuator 3 is arranged, which has a non-illustrated lifting magnet and a lifting armature, which can perform a stroke of 0.5 mm coaxial to the axis 2.
  • a diametrically magnetized permanent magnet ring 4 is fixed.
  • three or more Hall sensors 6 are arranged at a distance from the permanent magnet ring 4 but in the magnetic field region at the same angular distance and the same radial distance from the axis.
  • the Hall sensors 6 are connected via a sensor line 8 with an electronic control unit 7 and the control electronics 7 via a control line 9 to the actuator 3.
  • the control electronics 7 fed signals of the Hall sensors 6 are processed in the control electronics 7 and generates a corresponding drive signal which is supplied to the actuator 3 for driving and this to an alternating movement axially to the axis 2 with a stroke of 0.5 mm and a frequency of 1.5 kHz.
  • This alternating movement is also transmitted to the handle 2 and detected by the user as haptic feedback.
  • the signals of the Hall sensors 6 are further supplied via an output 10 of a drive unit, not shown, for controlling vehicle functionalities.
