本発明は自動車のハンドルに設けられたスイッチの信号
を伝送する自動車の信号伝送装置に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a signal transmission device for a vehicle that transmits signals from a switch provided on a steering wheel of a vehicle.
従来、自動車のハンドルには警笛を鳴らすためのスイッ
チが取付けられている。このスイッチからの信号はスリ
ップリングを介してハンドルの外側に取出され、警笛へ
の電流を供給するリレーを作動させていた。Conventionally, a switch for sounding the horn has been attached to the steering wheel of an automobile. The signal from this switch was routed through a slip ring to the outside of the steering wheel, activating a relay that supplied current to the horn.
ところで、ハンドルに種々の機器を制御するスイッチを

前方を注意しながらスイッチ操作を行うことができるた

おシ、これらのスイッチの操作に気を取られることもあ
った。By the way, if switches for controlling various devices are attached to the steering wheel, the switches are always at hand and the driver can operate the switches while always paying attention to the road ahead, thereby improving safety. In the past, for example, drivers had to reach far away to operate switches such as radios and air conditioners, and when doing so, they often neglected to pay attention to what was ahead. Also, depending on the car model, the headlights can be switched upward or downward on the instrument panel, and recently, various switches have been installed for cruise control, mirror control, and opening/closing the windows. Unfortunately, I was sometimes distracted by operating these switches.
本発明はこれらのスイッチ類をハンドルに設置したとき

イズの発生などを起すことがあシ、微小な信号の伝送に
は不適肖で誤動作を起し易い。The present invention relates to signal transmission when these switches are installed on a handle.Since the handle generally rotates left and right twice, bending force is always applied to the wires connected to the switches, and there is a risk of the wires breaking. Generally, signals are sent through a slip ring. However, slip rings are prone to poor contact and noise because the contacts move on the ring, making them unsuitable for transmitting minute signals and prone to malfunctions.

A signal for a moving vehicle that can accurately send signals from various switches installed on the steering wheel of a car to a stationary part, making it possible to install multiple switches on the steering wheel and safely operate the switches. The purpose is to provide transmission equipment.
以下本発明の実施例を図面とともに説明する。Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

が行われる。The coupler 3 is a type of transformer, and as shown in FIG.
The movable coil 8 is wound and fixed via a bearing 9, and the stationary coil 11 is wound and fixed on the outside of a stationary part 10 which rotatably supports the handle shaft 6. configured. Here, when the signal sent from the encoder 2 is applied to the coupler 3 and a current flows through the movable coil 8, a magnetic field is generated in the direction of the dotted arrow A, and due to electromagnetic action, the stationary coil 11 is A voltage corresponding to the signal is induced, and the signal is transmitted from the rotating side to the stationary side. In this case, since the coils 8 and 11 are formed so as to surround the handle shaft 6, they are not magnetically affected by the rotation of the handle shaft 6, and the signal is transmitted from the coil 8 to the coil 11. transmitted to. Moreover, since multiple signals are transmitted in a non-contact manner, accurate signal transmission is performed without causing poor contact or noise unlike the conventional slip ring type. thus,
The signal transmitted to the stationary coil 11 is subjected to multi-signal processing by the decoder 4, and a rung is lit or an actuator is activated in response to the on/off of each switch in the switch group 1.
第4図(4)、a3)は結合器3の他の実施例を示cし
、この例では各コイル8,11を複数個に分割したもの
で、作用的には前記実施例とほぼ同じである。FIG. 4 (4), a3) shows another embodiment of the coupler 3, in which each coil 8, 11 is divided into a plurality of pieces, and the function is almost the same as that of the previous embodiment. It is.
尚、信号伝送の方向はハンドル側から静止側の一方向と
限らなくても良く、双方にエンコーダとデコーダを装備
すれば、結合器を介して双方向に信号を伝達することが
できる。Note that the direction of signal transmission does not have to be limited to one direction from the handle side to the stationary side; if encoders and decoders are provided on both sides, signals can be transmitted bidirectionally via a coupler.
以上のように本発明においては、ハンドルに設置された

Since the signal transmission is non-contact, it is possible to accurately transmit signals from the handle side to the stationary side without being bothered by poor contact or noise generation as in the past.
