- the further locking parts 42, 44 of the coupling element 20 on the one hand interact with the further locking parts of the base plate 22 on the other side analogously to the locking parts 34, 36, 38, 40 explained above.

- the slides 16, 18 of the coupling unit 12 of the switch device 2 are each except for a 3 mm large slot in a housing, not shown, of the cooking device completely surrounded by the housing and thus only accessible from the outside through the aforementioned slots in the housing.
- a manipulation attempt is now made, that is, an undesired actuation of the switch device 2, for example by a child who pushes a nail or the like, for example through the slot in the housing of the cooking appliance associated with the slide 18.
- the child reaches the slide 18 with the nail and presses it, for example against a spring force of a spring, not shown, in the plane of the drawing Fig. 3 to the left.
- the coupling unit 12 of the switch device 2 After a distance of about 2.5 mm, the coupling unit 12 of the switch device 2 reaches the out of the Fig. 5 apparent location, namely a blocked location. Due to the fact that only the slide 18 and not additionally the slide 16 has been actuated, the coupling element 20 of the coupling unit 12 is perpendicular to the image plane of FIG Fig.
- the locking part 38 of the coupling element 20 comes into engagement with the locking part 40 of the base plate 22 of the coupling unit 12, namely locked.
- the further locking part 42 of the coupling element 20 engages with the corresponding locking part of the base plate 22, so that the coupling element 20 is locked twice to the base plate 22 by means of the aforementioned locking parts 38, 40, 42.

- the coupling unit 12 of the switch device 2 arrives at a Fig. 5 analog position, namely a blocking position. Due to the fact that only the slide 16 and not additionally the slide 18 has been actuated, the coupling element 20 of the coupling unit 12 is perpendicular to the image plane of FIG Fig.
- the aforementioned locking also works with a larger one Force introduction, for example by means of the nail.
- the coupling unit 12 also remains securely in its blocking position when a greater force is introduced, and thus again prevents undesired actuation of the switches 4, 6, 8 of the switch device 2.
- the slides 16, 18, When the switch device 2 is properly actuated, i.e. when the switch device 2 is actuated simultaneously by means of the plunger 14 of the door of the cooking appliance when the door is closed, the slides 16, 18, for example, in each case against the spring force of the above-mentioned springs, by means of the plunger 14 of the in the Fig. 3 shown rest position initially in the Fig. 4 intermediate position shown and then transferred to the end position, not shown. How out Fig. 4 As can be seen, the slides 16, 18 can, when they are simultaneously actuated by means of the tappet 14 of the door, beyond the blocking position of the coupling unit 12 in the plane of the drawing Fig. 3 be moved further to the left.
- the locking parts 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44 of the coupling element 20 and the base plate 22 of the coupling unit 12 do not engage with one another. This is not because the coupling element 20 is not rotated during the simultaneous actuation of the slides 16, 18 by means of the tappet 14 of the door.
- the coupling element 20 is neither clockwise nor counterclockwise around the perpendicular to the image plane of Fig. 4 extending axis of rotation, not shown, rotated.
- the coupling element 20 of the coupling unit 12 with its contact section 46 engages with the actuation unit 10, namely the actuation lever 48 of the actuation unit 10.
- the coupling element 20 rotates the actuation lever 48 of the actuation unit 10 clockwise about an axis of rotation 50, so that the actuation unit 10 engages the switch 6 designed as a monitor switch with the actuation lever 48 when the slide 16, 18 is about 4.5 mm .
- the switch 6 is thus operated by means of the operating unit 10, namely the operating lever 48. See also Fig. 4
- the coupling element 20 pushes the actuating lever 48 in the plane of the drawing Fig. 2 further to the left, so that the actuating lever 48 is rotated further clockwise about the axis of rotation 50.
- the actuating lever 48 engages with the switch 8 designed as a signal switch.
- the switch 8 is therefore also actuated by the actuating unit 10, namely the actuating lever 48.
- the invention makes it possible to design the switch device and cooking devices equipped with it, for example microwave devices or cooking devices with a microwave function, in one variant for countries with lower security requirements and in another variant for countries with higher security requirements, without changing the basic structure of the switch device .
- the two slides and the coupling element are designed as a single, essentially rigid component for countries with lower safety requirements.
- the coupling unit thus only comprises the base plate and this single, essentially rigid component, as well as at least one spring or the like, the spring force of which biases the two slides in the opposite direction to the actuation of the actuating unit by means of the plunger of the door of the cooking appliance.
- the invention is not limited to the present embodiment.
- the invention can also be used advantageously in other types of cooking appliances with a cooking space that can be closed by a door.
- switches and switch combinations suitable for the respective application are also conceivable in the switch device according to the invention.
- a switch device having only a single switch is also possible.
- a single switch device according to the invention or a plurality of switch devices according to the invention can be implemented.
- a combination of inventive Switch devices with switch devices not according to the invention are conceivable in cooking devices according to the invention with a plurality of switch devices.
- the structural design of the switch device according to the invention can be freely selected within wide suitable limits and is not restricted to the structural design according to the exemplary embodiment explained. Accordingly, the switch device according to the invention can advantageously be used for a large number of different applications. For example, it is not absolutely necessary to add further locking parts of the coupling element and the base plate to the locking parts of the coupling element and the base plate. Thus, embodiments are also conceivable in which there is only a simple locking of the coupling element on one side with the base plate on the other side, provided that a manipulation attempt, i.e. improper actuation of the switch device according to the invention, is carried out.

Derartige Schaltervorrichtungen für Gargeräte mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum und Gargeräte mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum und einer Schaltervorrichtung sind aus dem Stand der Technik in einer Vielzahl von Ausführungsformen bereits vorbekannt.Such switch devices for cooking devices with a cooking space that can be closed by a door and cooking devices with a cooking space that can be closed by a door and a switch device are already known from the prior art in a large number of embodiments.
Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem, eine Schaltervorrichtung für ein Gargerät mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum und ein Gargerät mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum und einer Schaltervorrichtung zu verbessern.The invention thus poses the problem of improving a switch device for a cooking device with a cooking space that can be closed by a door and a cooking device with a cooking space that can be closed by a door and a switch device.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Problem durch eine Schaltervorrichtung für ein Gargerät mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst, wonach die Schaltervorrichtung mindestens einen Schalter, eine Betätigungseinheit zur Betätigung des Schalters und eine Kopplungseinheit zur Kopplung der Betätigungseinheit mit zwei Stößeln der Tür umfasst, wobei die Kopplungseinheit für jeden Stößel einen separaten Schieber aufweist, und wobei die beiden Schieber mittels eines Kopplungselements derart miteinander gekoppelt sind, dass die Betätigungseinheit den Schalter in Abhängigkeit einer gleichzeitigen Betätigung der beiden Schieber mittels der beiden Stößel betätigt. Ferner wird dieses Problem durch ein Gargerät mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 10 gelöst, wonach das Gargerät einen durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum und mindestens eine Schaltervorrichtung mit mindestens einem Schalter umfasst, wobei mindestens eine Gargerätefunktion des Gargeräts in Abhängigkeit eines Schaltzustands des Schalters einschaltbar ist, und wobei mindestens eine der mindestens einen Schaltervorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 9 ausgebildet ist und die Tür zwei zu dieser Schaltervorrichtung korrespondierende Stößel aufweist. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Unteransprüchen.According to the invention, this problem is solved by a switch device for a cooking appliance with a cooking space that can be closed by a door, with the features of claim 1, according to which the switch device has at least one switch, an actuating unit for actuating the switch and a coupling unit for coupling the actuating unit to two plungers of the door comprises, wherein the coupling unit has a separate slide for each plunger, and wherein the two slides are coupled to one another by means of a coupling element in such a way that the actuation unit actuates the switch depending on a simultaneous actuation of the two slides by means of the two plungers. Furthermore, this problem is solved by a cooking device with the features of
Der mit der Erfindung erreichbare Vorteil besteht insbesondere darin, dass eine Schaltervorrichtung für ein Gargerät mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum und ein Gargerät mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum und einer Schaltervorrichtung verbessert ist. Beispielsweise stellen einige Staaten für als Mikrowellengeräte ausgebildete Gargeräte sehr hohe Anforderungen hinsichtlich deren Manipulationssicherheit. Mikrowellengeräte, die in diesen Staaten vertrieben werden sollen, müssen entsprechend ausgerüstet sein. Beispielsweise ist es aufgrund dieser hohen Sicherheitsanforderungen erforderlich, dass die an der Tür des Gargeräts angeordneten Stößel zur Betätigung des mindestens einen Schalters der bekannten Schaltervorrichtung für derartige Gargeräte sehr lang ausgebildet sein müssen. Entsprechend sind diese Stößel sehr sperrig und wenig bedienerfreundlich. Mitunter kann es passieren, dass der Bediener dieser Gargeräte an diesen Stößeln seine Kleidung beschädigt oder sich selbst verletzt. Ferner ist es denkbar, dass die Stößel dabei derart verbogen werden, dass eine ordnungsgemäße Funktion des Gargeräts nicht mehr möglich ist. Gleiches gilt für Gargeräte mit mehreren Garfunktionen, bei denen eine der Garfunktionen Mikrowellen einsetzt. Mittels der Erfindung ist es nun möglich, die Stößel der Tür, auch bei Gargeräten für Staaten mit den oben erläuterten hohen Sicherheitsanforderungen, relativ kompakt und damit bedienerfreundlich auszubilden. Ferner ermöglicht es die Erfindung, die Schaltervorrichtung und damit ausgestattete Gargeräte in einer Variante für Staaten mit geringeren Sicherheitsanforderungen und in einer anderen Variante für Staaten mit höheren Sicherheitsanforderungen geeignet auszubilden, ohne dabei den grundsätzlichen Aufbau der Schaltervorrichtung zu verändern.The advantage that can be achieved with the invention is in particular that a switch device for a cooking device with a cooking space that can be closed by a door and a cooking device with a cooking space that can be closed by a door and a switch device are improved. For example, some states provide for as Microwave devices trained cooking devices very high requirements with regard to their manipulation security. Microwave devices that are to be sold in these countries must be equipped accordingly. For example, because of these high safety requirements, it is necessary that the plungers arranged on the door of the cooking device for actuating the at least one switch of the known switch device for such cooking devices must be very long. Accordingly, these tappets are very bulky and not very user-friendly. It can sometimes happen that the operator of these cooking devices damages his clothing or injures himself on these plungers. It is also conceivable that the plungers are bent in such a way that the cooking appliance can no longer function properly. The same applies to cooking appliances with several cooking functions in which one of the cooking functions uses microwaves. By means of the invention it is now possible to make the door tappets relatively compact and thus user-friendly, even in cooking appliances for countries with the high security requirements explained above. Furthermore, the invention makes it possible to design the switch device and cooking appliances equipped with it in one variant for countries with lower security requirements and in another variant for countries with higher security requirements without changing the basic structure of the switch device.

Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtung sieht vor, dass die Kopplungseinheit eine Grundplatte aufweist, an der die beiden Schieber beweglich angeordnet und geführt sind. Auf diese Weise sind die Anordnung und die Führung der Schieber auf konstruktiv einfache und robuste Art realisiert.An advantageous development of the switch device according to the invention provides that the coupling unit has a base plate on which the two slides are movably arranged and guided.

Hierdurch ist das Kopplungselement und dessen gelenkige Verbindung mit den beiden Schiebern auf konstruktive besonders einfache Weise ermöglicht.Another advantageous development of the switch device according to the invention provides that the coupling element on one side and the two slides on the other side each have corresponding joint parts, each pair of corresponding joint parts forming a joint. This enables the coupling element and its articulated connection to the two slides in a particularly simple constructive manner.
Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der vorgenannten Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtung sieht vor, dass die beiden Gelenkteile des Kopplungselements jeweils als zapfenartige Vorsprünge eines Basisteils des Kopplungselements und das Gelenkteil jedes der beiden Schieber als eine Aufnahme für den dazu korrespondierenden Vorsprung ausgebildet sind. Auf diese Weise ist die gelenkige Verbindung zwischen dem Kopplungselement und den beiden Schiebern mit sehr einfachen Mitteln herstellbar.An advantageous development of the aforementioned embodiment of the switch device according to the invention provides that the two joint parts of the coupling element are each as peg-like projections of a base part of the coupling element and the joint part of each of the two slides is used as a receptacle for the corresponding projection are trained.

Die Kopplungseinheit 12 weist eine Grundplatte 22 auf, an der die beiden Schieber 16, 18 beweglich angeordnet und geführt sind.The
Das Kopplungselement 20 auf der einen Seite und die beiden Schieber 16, 18 auf der anderen Seite weisen jeweils zueinander korrespondierende Gelenkteile 24, 26, 28, 30 auf, wobei jede Paarung 24, 26; 28, 30 von zueinander korrespondierenden Gelenkteilen 24, 26, 28, 30 jeweils ein Gelenk ausbildet. Die beiden Gelenkteile 26, 30 des Kopplungselements 20 sind jeweils als zapfenartige Vorsprünge eines Basisteils 32 des Kopplungselements 20 und das Gelenkteil 24, 28 jedes der beiden Schieber 16, 18 ist als eine Aufnahme für den dazu korrespondierenden Vorsprung 26, 30 ausgebildet. Entsprechend ist die Aufnahme 24 des Schiebers 16 dem Vorsprung 26 des Kopplungselements 20 und die Aufnahme 28 des Schiebers 18 dem Vorsprung 30 des Kopplungselements 20 zugeordnet.The
Ferner weisen das Kopplungselement 20 und die Grundplatte 22 jeweils zwei paarweise zueinander korrespondierende Verriegelungsteile 34, 36, 38, 40 auf, wobei die Verriegelungsteile 34, 36, 38, 40 derart ausgebildet sind, dass eines der beiden Verriegelungsteile 34, 38 des Kopplungselements 20 bei einer Betätigung des einen Schiebers 16, 18 und bei einer Nichtbetätigung des anderen Schiebers 18, 16 mit dem korrespondierenden Verriegelungsteil 36, 40 der Grundplatte 22 verriegelt. Bei einer Betätigung des Schiebers 16 und bei gleichzeitiger Nichtbetätigung des Schiebers 18 verriegelt das Verriegelungsteil 34 des Kopplungselements 20 mit dem dazu korrespondierenden Verriegelungsteil 36 der Grundplatte 22. Dieser Fall ist in den Fig. nicht dargestellt. Bei einer Betätigung des Schiebers 18 und bei gleichzeitiger Nichtbetätigung des Schiebers 16 verriegelt das Verriegelungsteil 38 des Kopplungselements 20 mit dem dazu korrespondierenden Verriegelungsteil 40 der Grundplatte 22. Dieser Fall ist in den
Wie aus den Fig. ferner hervorgeht, sind die beiden Verriegelungsteile 34, 38 des Kopplungselements 20 jeweils als ein Haken und die beiden Verriegelungsteile 36, 40 der Grundplatte 22 jeweils als eine Hakenaufnahme ausgebildet.As can also be seen from the figures, the two locking
Darüber hinaus ist aus den Fig. ersichtlich, dass das Kopplungselement 20 und die Grundplatte 22 bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel zusätzlich zu den oben genannten und erläuterten Verriegelungsteilen 34, 36, 38, 40 weitere Verriegelungsteile aufweisen, wobei in den Fig. lediglich die weiteren Verriegelungsteile 42, 44 des Kopplungselements 20 sichtbar sind. Siehe hierzu insbesondere die
Darüber hinaus weist das Kopplungselement 20 einen Kontaktabschnitt 46 auf, wobei der Kontaktabschnitt 46 bei einer gleichzeitigen Betätigung der beiden Schieber 16, 18 mittels der Stößel 14 der Tür die Betätigungseinheit 10 derart betätigt, dass die Betätigungseinheit 10 die Schalter 4, 6, 8 betätigt. Die Betätigungseinheit 10 weist hierfür einen Betätigungshebel 48 auf, wobei die Betätigungseinheit 10 derart ausgebildet ist, dass die Schalter 4, 6, 8 mittels des Betätigungshebels 48 sukzessive, also zeitlich nacheinander, betätigbar sind.In addition, the
Das im Wesentlichen nicht dargestellte Gargerät, also das Mikrowellengerät, weist bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel insgesamt zwei Schaltervorrichtungen auf, wobei eine der beiden Schaltervorrichtungen als die Schaltervorrichtung 2 ausgebildet ist. Die beiden Schaltervorrichtungen sind jeweils an einer Seite der Front des Gargeräts angeordnet.The cooking appliance, which is essentially not shown, ie the microwave appliance, has a total of two switch devices in the present exemplary embodiment, one of the two switch devices being designed as the
Im Nachfolgenden wird die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtung und des damit ausgestatteten erfindungsgemäßen Gargeräts gemäß dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel und anhand der
Zunächst ist die Tür des Gargeräts geöffnet und die Schaltervorrichtung 2 befindet sich in der aus den
Nun erfolgt ein Manipulationsversuch, also eine ungewünschte Betätigung der Schaltervorrichtung 2, beispielsweise durch ein Kind, das einen Nagel oder dergleichen beispielsweise durch den dem Schieber 18 zugeordneten Schlitz des Gehäuses des Gargeräts hindurchsteckt. Das Kind erreicht mit dem Nagel den Schieber 18 und drückt diesen, beispielsweise gegen eine Federkraft einer nicht dargestellten Feder, in der Bildebene von
Analoges gilt auch für den Fall, dass anstelle des Schiebers 18 lediglich der Schieber 16 auf ungewünschte Weise, beispielsweise mittels des oben genannten Nagels, betätigt wird. Das Kind erreicht mit dem Nagel den Schieber 16 und drückt diesen, beispielsweise gegen eine Federkraft einer nicht dargestellten Feder, in der Bildebene von
Bei einer ordnungsgemäßen Betätigung der Schaltervorrichtung 2, also bei einer gleichzeitigen Betätigung der Schaltervorrichtung 2 mittels der Stößel 14 der Tür des Gargeräts bei dem Schließen der Tür, werden die Schieber 16, 18, beispielsweise jeweils entgegen der Federkraft der oben genannten Federn, mittels der Stößel 14 von der in der
Mit der weiteren Bewegung der beiden Schieber 16, 18 und damit der Kopplungseinheit 12 in der Bildebene von
Bei der weiteren Bewegung der Schieber 16, 18 und damit der Kopplungseinheit 12 in der Bildebene von
Die Schieber 16, 18 und damit der Kopplungseinheit 12 werden in der Bildebene von
Bei einer Wegstrecke der Schieber 16, 18 von etwa 8 mm ist die Tür des als Mikrowellengerät ausgebildeten Gargeräts mikrowellendicht geschlossen. Siehe hierzu die
Mittels der Erfindung, beispielsweise gemäß dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel, ist es somit möglich, die Stößel der Tür, auch bei Gargeräten für Staaten, mit den eingangs erläuterten hohen Sicherheitsanforderungen, relativ kompakt und damit bedienerfreundlich auszubilden. Ferner ermöglicht es die Erfindung, die Schaltervorrichtung und damit ausgestattete Gargeräte, beispielsweise Mikrowellengeräte oder Gargeräte mit Mikrowellenfunktion, in einer Variante für Staaten mit geringeren Sicherheitsanforderungen und in einer anderen Variante für Staaten mit höheren Sicherheitsanforderungen geeignet auszubilden, ohne dabei den grundsätzlichen Aufbau der Schaltervorrichtung zu verändern.By means of the invention, for example in accordance with the present exemplary embodiment, it is thus possible to make the door tappets relatively compact and thus user-friendly, even in the case of cooking appliances for states, with the high security requirements explained at the beginning. Furthermore, the invention makes it possible to design the switch device and cooking devices equipped with it, for example microwave devices or cooking devices with a microwave function, in one variant for countries with lower security requirements and in another variant for countries with higher security requirements, without changing the basic structure of the switch device .
Dies ist beispielsweise bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel dadurch möglich, dass die beiden Schieber und das Kopplungselement für Staaten mit geringeren Sicherheitsanforderungen als ein einziges, im Wesentlichen steifes Bauteil ausgebildet sind. Die Kopplungseinheit umfasst somit beispielsweise lediglich noch die Grundplatte und dieses einzige, im Wesentlichen steife Bauteil, sowie mindestens eine Feder oder dergleichen, deren Federkraft die beiden Schieber in die Gegenrichtung der Betätigung der Betätigungseinheit mittels der Stößel der Tür des Gargeräts vorspannen.In the present exemplary embodiment, for example, this is possible in that the two slides and the coupling element are designed as a single, essentially rigid component for countries with lower safety requirements. The coupling unit thus only comprises the base plate and this single, essentially rigid component, as well as at least one spring or the like, the spring force of which biases the two slides in the opposite direction to the actuation of the actuating unit by means of the plunger of the door of the cooking appliance.
Die Erfindung ist nicht auf das vorliegende Ausführungsbeispiel begrenzt. Beispielsweise ist die Erfindung auch bei anderen Arten von Gargeräten mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren Garraum vorteilhaft einsetzbar.The invention is not limited to the present embodiment. For example, the invention can also be used advantageously in other types of cooking appliances with a cooking space that can be closed by a door.
Ferner sind auch andere für den jeweiligen Anwendungsfall geeignete Schalter und Schalterkombinationen bei der erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtung denkbar. Beispielsweise ist auch eine lediglich einen einzigen Schalter aufweisende Schaltervorrichtung möglich. Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Gargerät kann lediglich eine einzige erfindungsgemäße Schaltervorrichtung oder eine Mehrzahl von erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtungen realisiert sein. Auch eine Kombination von erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtungen mit nicht erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtungen sind bei erfindungsgemäßen Gargeräten mit einer Mehrzahl von Schaltervorrichtungen denkbar.Furthermore, other switches and switch combinations suitable for the respective application are also conceivable in the switch device according to the invention. For example, a switch device having only a single switch is also possible. In the cooking device according to the invention, only a single switch device according to the invention or a plurality of switch devices according to the invention can be implemented. Also a combination of inventive Switch devices with switch devices not according to the invention are conceivable in cooking devices according to the invention with a plurality of switch devices.
Die konstruktive Ausbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtung ist in weiten geeigneten Grenzen frei wählbar und nicht auf die konstruktive Ausbildung gemäß dem erläuterten Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt. Entsprechend ist die erfindungsgemäße Schaltervorrichtung für eine Vielzahl von voneinander verschiedenen Anwendungsfällen vorteilhaft einsetzbar. Beispielsweise ist die Ergänzung der Verriegelungsteile des Kopplungselements und der Grundplatte um weitere Verriegelungsteile des Kopplungselements und der Grundplatte nicht zwingend erforderlich. Somit sind auch Ausführungsformen denkbar, bei denen lediglich eine einfache Verriegelung des Kopplungselements auf der einen Seite mit der Grundplatte auf der anderen Seite erfolgt, sofern ein Manipulationsversuch, also eine nicht ordnungsgemäße Betätigung der erfindungsgemäßen Schaltervorrichtung, durchgeführt wird.The structural design of the switch device according to the invention can be freely selected within wide suitable limits and is not restricted to the structural design according to the exemplary embodiment explained. Accordingly, the switch device according to the invention can advantageously be used for a large number of different applications. For example, it is not absolutely necessary to add further locking parts of the coupling element and the base plate to the locking parts of the coupling element and the base plate. Thus, embodiments are also conceivable in which there is only a simple locking of the coupling element on one side with the base plate on the other side, provided that a manipulation attempt, i.e. improper actuation of the switch device according to the invention, is carried out.
