Für eine besonders bevorzugte Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen For a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention
Schaltbedienanordnung ist nachfolgendes festzustellen. Switch operating arrangement is to be determined below.
Die Schaltbedienanordnung ist als ein Eingabegerät mit einer lateralbeweglichen, großen Bedienoberfläche ausgestaltet. Beispielsweise kann die Bedienfläche eine Dimensionierung von ca. 110 mm x 70 mm besitzen und in z-Richtung linear betätigbar sein. Verkippungen und/oder nichtlineare Bewegungen an unterschiedlichen Stellen sollen bestmöglich verhindert sein. Der Hub in z-Richtung beträgt weniger als 1 mm. Die Ausprägungen im Oberflächendesign und/oder Oberflächenstyling sollen möglichst große Freiheitsgrade bieten. Die Einheit soll möglichst kompakt und/oder bauraumoptimal ausgestaltet sein. Gewünscht ist weiter eine möglichst geringe Anzahl an beweglichen Teilen. Vibrationen im Fahrzeug sollen nicht zur Anregung eines Störgeräusches führen. The switch operator assembly is configured as an input device with a laterally movable, large user interface. For example, the control surface may have a dimensioning of about 110 mm x 70 mm and be linearly actuated in the z-direction. Tilting and / or non-linear movements at different points should be prevented as far as possible. The stroke in z-direction is less than 1 mm.

Als Lösung für diese Anforderungen an die Schaltbedienanordnung ist eine parallelbewegliche Kipphebelanordnung vorgeschlagen. Diese Kipphebelanordnung kann mittels rotatorisch gelagerten Hebelpaaren und/oder in Form von parallelverspannten Blattfedern realisiert sein. Als Grundprinzip sind diese als Parallelhebel gelagert. Dies bedeutet im Wirkprinzip, dass die eine Seite als Loslager und die weitere Seite auf der anderen, gegenüberliegenden Seite als Festlager fixiert sind. Um auf das Loslager zu verzichten, kann dies in der Ausführung als Blattfederpaket in der plastischen Verformung der Federelemente und deren Anbindung realisiert werden. Eine weitere Möglichkeit zur Anordnung des Loslagers ist die Verwendung einer beweglichen Platte in rotatorischer und/oder linearer Führung des Lagers. Geschaffen ist somit eine parallelgeführte Bedienfläche, insbesondere mit unterschiedlichen Haptikelementen. As a solution to these demands on the Schaltbedienanordnung a parallel movable rocker arm assembly is proposed. This rocker arm arrangement can be realized by means of rotatably mounted lever pairs and / or in the form of parallel-tensioned leaf springs. As a basic principle, these are stored as parallel levers. This means in the operating principle that the one side are fixed as a floating bearing and the other side on the other, opposite side as a fixed bearing. To dispense with the floating bearing, this can be realized in the design as a leaf spring package in the plastic deformation of the spring elements and their connection. Another possibility for the arrangement of the movable bearing is the use of a movable plate in rotary and / or linear guide of the bearing. This creates a parallel-guided operating surface, in particular with different haptic elements.

Der Benutzer kann durch manuelle Einwirkung mittels eines Elements 5 an der In Fig. 1, a switch operating assembly 1 is seen in the manner of a touchpad, which is used in particular for a motor vehicle. The shift operating assembly 1 has an existing plastic housing 13, on whose one manually accessible surface 14 in the x and y direction extending actuating surface 2 is located. The user can by manual action by means of an element 5 at the
Betätigungsfläche 2 die Schaltbedienanordnung 1 bestimmungsgemäß bedienen. Bei dem Element 5 kann es sich um den Finger 5 einer menschlichen Hand 6 handeln, so dass mittels entsprechender Bewegung des Fingers 5 die bestimmungsgemäße Bedienung ermöglicht ist. Beispielsweise kann die Schaltbedienanordnung 1 in der Mittelkonsole des Kraftfahrzeugs angeordnet sein und für die Bedienung eines Navigationssystems, eines Bildschirms o. dgl. im Kraftfahrzeug vorgesehen sein. Die Schaltbedienanordnung 1 ist mittels eines Actuating surface 2 operate the switch operating assembly 1 as intended. The element 5 may be the finger 5 of a human hand 6, so that the intended operation is made possible by means of a corresponding movement of the finger 5. For example, the shift operating assembly 1 may be arranged in the center console of the motor vehicle and be provided for the operation of a navigation system, a screen o. The like. In the vehicle. The shift operating arrangement 1 is by means of a
Steckeranschlusses 15 beispielsweise an ein Bussystem im Kraftfahrzeug anschließbar. Connector 15, for example, connected to a bus system in the vehicle.
Die Schaltbedienanordnung 1 ist mit einem mit der Betätigungsfläche 2 The shift operating assembly 1 is one with the actuating surface. 2
zusammenwirkenden, nicht weiter gezeigten Sensor versehen. Der beispielsweise kapazitiv und/oder mit Infrarot-Strahlung arbeitende Sensor erzeugt bei Annäherung des Elements 5, hier beispielsweise des Fingers 5 der Hand 6 des Benutzers, an die Betätigungsfläche 2 und/oder bei Berührung der Betätigungsfläche 2 mittels des Elements 5 und/oder bei Druckeinwirkung mittels des Elements 5 auf die Betätigungsfläche 2 ein Signal. Das Signal dient dann zum Schalten und/oder Auslösen und/oder Anwählen einer Funktion im cooperating, not shown sensor provided. For example, the capacitive and / or infrared radiation sensor generates when approaching the element 5, here for example the finger 5 of the user's hand 6, to the actuating surface 2 and / or touching the actuating surface 2 by means of the element 5 and / or at Pressure action by means of the element 5 on the actuating surface 2 a signal. The signal is then used for switching and / or triggering and / or selecting a function in

As can be seen further in FIG. 2, the actuating surface 2 acts for this purpose with a
Verschiebemittel 4 derart zusammen, dass die Betätigungsfläche 2 um wenigstens eine Strecke aus einer Ausgangs- beziehungsweise Nullstellung in eine Betätigungsstellung im wesentlichen linear bewegbar ist. Die Betätigungsstellung ist als eine Schaltstellung ausgebildet, derart dass die Betätigungsfläche 2 in der Schaltstellung auf ein elektrisches Schaltelement 7 schaltend einwirkt. Dabei erzeugt das Schaltelement 7 ein Schaltsignal, das beispielsweise als„Enter"-Befehl und damit zum Schalten und/oder Auslösen der zugeordneten Funktion im Kraftfahrzeug dienen kann. Anstelle eines elektrischen Schaltelements 7 kann auch ein Sensor, wie ein Hall-Sensor, ein induktiver Sensor, eine Lichtschranke o. dgl., Verwendung finden. Displacement means 4 together such that the actuating surface 2 is at least a distance from an initial or zero position in an actuating position substantially linearly movable. The actuating position is formed as a switching position, such that the actuating surface 2 in the switching position acts on an electrical switching element 7 switching. In this case, the switching element 7 generates a switching signal which, for example, can serve as an "enter" command and thus for switching and / or triggering the assigned function in the motor vehicle Switching element 7, a sensor such as a Hall sensor, an inductive sensor, a light barrier o. The like., Are used.
Wie weiter anhand der Fig. 2 zu sehen ist, umfasst das Verschiebemittel 4 eine As can be further seen with reference to FIG. 2, the displacement means 4 comprises a

The one leaf spring 11 is fixed to the housing fixed in a fixation 21 at one end on the projection 16 and at the other end or clamped. The other leaf spring 12 is attached or clamped at one end to the projection 16 and at the other end to a floating bearing 20. As a result, the actuating surface 2 is substantially in the direction of the projection 16, ie in the direction 3, movable into the housing 13, as in Fig. 3 with reference to the dashed lines indicated leaf springs 11, 12 is indicated.
Beiden Ausführungen nach der Fig. 2 und der Fig. 3 ist also gemeinsam, dass die Both versions of FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 is therefore common that the
Kipphebelanordnung 4, 4' auf der einen Seite ein Loslager 20 sowie auf der anderen, gegenüberliegenden Seite ein Festlager 19, 21 aufweist. Das Loslager 20 kann eine bewegliche Platte 22 umfassen. Gemäß Fig. 2 und Fig. 3 ist die bewegliche Platte 22 in einem Lager am Gehäuse 13 linear geführt. Falls gewünscht kann die bewegliche Platte des Loslagers auch rotatorisch in einem Lager am Gehäuse 13 gefuhrt sein, was jedoch nicht weiter gezeigt ist. Rocker arm assembly 4, 4 'on one side of a movable bearing 20 and on the other, opposite side a fixed bearing 19, 21 has. The floating bearing 20 may include a movable plate 22.
