Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device and a method for displaying any surface, in particular a surface that integrates both switching / control elements in a graphical representation and represents the switching states within any process, the input elements being able to trigger changing functions and these be clearly assigned to the user in graphic, pictorial form. It also relates in particular to the control of complex processes that are to be carried out and monitored on the smallest possible display area.
- Such surfaces for the control and regulation of processes of all kinds are well known in the prior art and are today carried out using buttons, rotary controls or slide controls, the function of which is clearly defined by assignment to specific components or appropriate labeling.
- a touch-sensitive screen lies in the fact that the triggering of a switching process takes place without noticeable feedback and an accidental triggering of a process is therefore easily possible.
- Another disadvantage is that a control or regulation process that would be sensible to control via a rotary controller is not supported by commercially available touch-sensitive screens.
- a touch-sensitive screen can only control one function at a time.
- the method for displaying a surface is characterized in that a screen is centered of an attachment is completely or partially covered, the attachment accommodating at least one switching / control element which, when actuated, triggers a function and can cause it to be displayed on the screen.
- the device created according to this method according to the invention consists of a screen mechanically preceded by an attachment which has at least one electrical switching / control element.
- the device according to the invention for controlling and regulating processes is characterized in particular by the fact that a screen is provided with a transparent or impervious surface, which carries buttons, rotary controls or linear displacement sensors distributed anywhere on the screen, their respective status by means of the screen the respective control element is graphically displayed around and under the respective control element or at one or more locations next to the respective control element as desired, controlled by software, in one or more colors.
- any high-resolution screen can advantageously be used, cathode-ray tubes, LCD displays or LED displays preferably being used.
- the attachment in front of the screen usually represents a flat cover that is completely or partially transparent and translucent, depending on how the surface is to be designed.
- the switching Z control element can advantageously be arranged on / on / in the attachment, the switching / control elements being electrically connected to further electrical / electronic components, for example a microprocessor, by means of a printed circuit.
- the switching / control elements are usually micro switches, rotary encoders or linear displacement sensors.
- the Electrical / electronic components do not necessarily have to be attached to the attachment, but can just as well be arranged outside the surface.
- a graphic created with commercially available software can be created on the screen radially to the corresponding switching / control elements, which graphic shows the corresponding switching state when the switching / control elements are actuated.
- the graphic does not have to be monochrome, but can also be colored according to the taste of the user.
- the material can advantageously consist of plastic, metal or a combination of both, the incorporated openings serving either as a window to the screen or to accommodate the switching / control elements.
- FIG. 1 shows the front view 'of an attachment (2) according to the invention which has various switching / control elements (3, 4', 5);
- Figure 2 shows the side view of the surface (1) according to the invention with the mechanically upstream attachment (2) and the screen (6) behind it;
- FIG 3 shows the front view of an example of a complete surface (1) according to the invention.
- the attachment 2 is a flat cover which is mechanically arranged in front of a suitable screen 6.
- the switching / control elements 3, 4, 5 can be arranged at any point on the entire surface, which generally depends on which division is considered useful.
- rotary controls 3 are arranged in the upper row.
- slide regulators 4 In the middle row there are slide regulators 4 and in the lower row there are push buttons 5 which actuate a switch or the like.
- recesses 8, 9, 10 are arranged around the switching / control elements 3, 4, 5, which allow a clear view of the screen 6 underneath. In the case of a transparent, translucent attachment 2, the windows 10 would be omitted.
- FIG. 2 A side view of the entire surface I is shown schematically in FIG. 2.
- the switching / control elements 3, 4, 5 are arranged inside the attachment (mask), However, this is not absolutely necessary. In further exemplary embodiments, not shown here, the switching / control elements 3, 4, 5 are mounted on the attachment 2.
- FIG. 3 schematically shows an example of a complete surface 1.
- the round buttons in the four horizontal rows symbolize the switching / control elements 3, 4, 5.
- Radial to the switching / control elements graphics 7 can be seen, which were created with commercially available software, so that any representation can be chosen.
- a further exemplary embodiment of the radially arranged graphics 7 can be seen in the lower row.
- the invention thus enables the use of commercially available operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows or Apple DOS, to display all control functions in high-resolution graphics in color on a commercially available cathode-ray screen or liquid crystal screen, the manufacturer being able to take advantage of the ergonomically useful control elements known to him.
- the manufacture of an attachment described here for the formation of a surface according to the invention can already be carried out by simple milling and drilling operations, so that the production of such a mask is also economical for individual pieces and small series.
