Description
Ia présente invention concerne un systeème d'interrupteurLl- à quatreThe present invention relates to a switch system Ll- to four
positions qui permet d'établir trois contacts électriques. Actuellement les systèmes existants sur le marché sont de tailles importantes. De plus, les contacts sont perpendiculaires à l'axe de déplacement du "noyau plongeur". 5 Le systèmc d'interrupteur à quatre positions. olbjct de la présente invention réduit considérablement cette taille. Il permet en outre d'obtenir des contacts parallèles au noyau, d'une part. et d'autre part uln systèmllle de positionnement du noyau plongeur par des billes, et ce avec un etlort réduit pour le retour en position neutre. Il est composé. suivant un premier descriptit: de10- un corps creux (1), positions which allows three electrical contacts to be established. Currently the existing systems on the market are of large sizes. In addition, the contacts are perpendicular to the axis of movement of the "plunger core". 5 The four position switch system. olbjct of the present invention considerably reduces this size. It also makes it possible to obtain contacts parallel to the core, on the one hand. and on the other hand, a system for positioning the plunger core by means of balls, and this with a reduced etlort for returning to the neutral position. It is composed. according to a first description: de10- a hollow body (1),
- uin noyau plongeur (2).- a plunger core (2).
- un jeu de lamelle (3).- a set of coverslip (3).
- un ressort (4), - une ou deux bagues en caoutchouc (5), - un jeu de billes (6) - une bague en laiton (7). Le corps (1) et le noyau (2) sont en matière isolante (nylon, téflon backelite, plastique, résine, etc.), les lamelles (3) en acier. cuivre ct laiton, le ressort (4) en acier ordinaire ou inox, le caoutchouc (5) en PTFE non conductible. et les billes (6) en acier ou nylon.20 Selon les plans de fabrication joints au présent dossier, les pièces de ce système comportent les caractéristiques suivantcs: Le corps creux (1) comporte sur son diamètre supérieur des trous perpendiculaires à l'axe qui permettent de recevoir les contacts électriques ainsi que les billes de positionnement du noyau. A la base du corps creux, des trous parallèles à son axe servent à maintenir l'extrémité25 des lamelles. Lc noyau plongeur (2) possède des escaliers circulaires sur lesquels les billes (6) glissent et - a spring (4), - one or two rubber rings (5), - a set of balls (6) - a brass ring (7). The body (1) and the core (2) are made of insulating material (nylon, Teflon backelite, plastic, resin, etc.), the strips (3) made of steel. copper and brass, the spring (4) in ordinary steel or stainless steel, the rubber (5) in non-conductive PTFE. and the balls (6) in steel or nylon. 20 According to the manufacturing plans attached to this file, the parts of this system have the following characteristics: The hollow body (1) has holes on its upper diameter perpendicular to the axis which allow to receive the electrical contacts as well as the positioning balls of the core. At the base of the hollow body, holes parallel to its axis serve to hold the end of the strips. The plunger core (2) has circular staircases on which the balls (6) slide and
viennent indexer la positon. Ces escaliers ont pour fonction d'opposer un effort à l'enlobncemecnt du piston et de libhrer ainsi toutcs contraintes au retour en position zéro. Le sommet du noyau comporte une bague en laiton (7) recouverte d'or, montée, serrée et30 collée sur le noyau, qui assure le contact électrique. A sa base un trou dans l'axe permet de loger le ressort. come to index the position. These staircases have the function of opposing an effort to the encasement of the piston and thus releasing all of the stresses on returning to the zero position. The top of the core has a brass ring (7) covered with gold, mounted, tightened and glued to the core, which provides electrical contact. At its base a hole in the axis allows to accommodate the spring.
les lamelles (3) comportent des trous et reç,oivent soudé ou serti des contacts or. L'extrémité est découpée pour permettre la soudure sur uin support électrique. Le ressort (4) travaille en compression. the lamellae (3) have holes and receive, solder or crimp gold contacts. The end is cut to allow welding on an electrical support. The spring (4) works in compression.
2 Les bagues en caoutchouc (5) permettent un contact électrique entre les lamelles (3) et la 2 The rubber rings (5) allow electrical contact between the slats (3) and the
bague en laiton (7) ainsi que le maintien en appui des billes (6) sur l'escalier du noyau (2). Le contact électrique est de type autonettoyant par le frottement du contact sur la bague en cuivre. 5 Les billes (6) permettent de positionner le noyau en glissant sur l'escalier, et de donner ainsi une information sensitive de la position. brass ring (7) and the bearing support of the balls (6) on the staircase of the core (2). The electrical contact is of the self-cleaning type by the friction of the contact on the copper ring. 5 The balls (6) make it possible to position the core by sliding on the staircase, and thus to give sensitive position information.
La bague en laiton (7) doré assure le contact entre la lamelle (3) qui amène le courant (commun) et celle qui le redistribue. Selon d'autres variantes, une cale en matière isolante peut s'intégrer dans le fond du corps creux (1) pour permettre de diminuer le nombre de contacts. Selon d'autres variantes, le nombre d'escaliers peut varier sans limite et entraîner une modification du nombre de contacts. Le fond du corps (1) possède un centrage extérieur pour assurer la position sur un support et éventuellement être fixé à l'aide d'une vis. Le ressort (4) est guidé dans le corps (1) par l'intermédiaire d'un doigt de centrage. La possibilité de modifier l'effort à l'enfoncement du noyau peut se faire en modifiant la résistance du caoutchouc (5) et du ressort (4). L'effort exercé sur le noyau plongeur (2) donne une sensation tactile des positions qui peuvent être modifiées en intervenant sur la forme et la profondeur des crans de l'escalier du noyau The golden brass ring (7) ensures contact between the strip (3) which brings the current (common) and that which redistributes it. According to other variants, a shim made of insulating material can be integrated into the bottom of the hollow body (1) to allow the number of contacts to be reduced. According to other variants, the number of stairs can vary without limit and lead to a change in the number of contacts. The bottom of the body (1) has an external centering to ensure the position on a support and possibly be fixed with a screw. The spring (4) is guided in the body (1) by means of a centering finger. The possibility of modifying the force when the core is pushed in can be done by modifying the resistance of the rubber (5) and the spring (4). The force exerted on the plunger core (2) gives a tactile sensation of the positions which can be modified by intervening on the shape and the depth of the notches of the core staircase
