BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The various aspects of the invention, including its particular features and advantages, will be readily understood from the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG 1 shows a panel with control unit according to prior art
FIG 2 shows a panel with control unit according to the inven tion
FIG 3 shows an exploded view of an embodiment of the control unit,
FIG 4 shows an embodiment of the splitting unit and FIG 5 shows a view from the backside of the control unit.
FIG 2 shows an embodiment of the control unit 10 being connected to a panel 1. The control unit is provided with or comprises a first control element 2 and a second control element 4. In the present embodiment the first control element 2 is provided as central knob 12 and second control element 4 is provided as ring selector which is concentrically arranged around the knob 12. However, the second control element could as well be the knob and the first control element the ring selector.
The knob 12 as well as the ring selector 14 are designed to con trol a function or a temperature of an oven by turning the knob or the ring selector to a designated position and thus switching to a function or temperature by means of the converters being electromechanical components. In particular, the knob 12 and the ring selector 14 might be provided each with a push-in push-out mechanism, such that the knob 12 and the ring selector 14 might be both in a protruding position, only the knob 12 is in a pro truding position or non-of them is in a protruding position.
FIG 3 shows an exploded view of the control unit and the posi tion of panel 1.
Knob 12 is located on a first axis A1 and is provided with a handling part 12a with axis pin 12b directed to a back side. The ring selector 14 has a flat surface located in a handling part 14a of the ring selector 14 and a flange 14b protruding to an back side. In between the ring selector 14 and the knob 12, there is shown an optional design ring 13. The design ring 13 is as well provided with a protruding flange 13b. This design ring 13 might be fixed with the knob 12 or with the ring selector 14. The flanges 13b, 14b as well as the axis pin 12b are designated to pass through a hole in the panel 1.
On the back side of the panel 1 there is arranged the splitting unit 20. The splitting unit 20 comprises a box 28 and a cover 29 for closing the box 20. Inside the box 28, a gear set is ar ranged. The gear set comprises at least a first gear 22 and a second gear 24. The first gear 22 is arranged on the axis A1 and the second gear 24 is arranged on the second axis A2. The first and the second axis Al, A2 are arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart from each other.
The first gear 22 is provided as ring, such that an axis from the knob 12 extending to the first converter 30 and a matching axis 31 of the first converter extending to the knob 12 may pass, in particular centrally through the first gear 22 without contacting this first gear 22. This axis from the knob 12 to the first converter 30 extends through opposing holes 40, 42 in the box 28 and the cover 29.
The first gear 22 is attached to the flange 14b of the ring se lector 14 and is fixed regarding a circumferential direction.
The first gear 22 engages with the second gear 24 by means of a third gear 26. Thus the third gear 26 is arranged between the first gear 22 and the second gear 24.
The second gear 24 is connected to the second converter 32 by means of an axis A2. The axis from the second gear 24 to the second converter 32 passes through another hole 44 in the cover 29, wherein a part the box 28 opposing this hole might be pro vided as bearing 46. In particular the second converter 32 is provided with an axis pin 33. The third bearing 26 engages with the first bearing 22 and the second bearing 24 as shown as well in FIG 4. The third bearing 26 is arranges between the first bearing 22 and the second bear ing 24. The third bearing 26 may be provided with an integral axle 27, wherein the cover 29 or alternatively the box 28 serves as bearing 48 for the axle 27 of the of the third bearing 26.
FIG 5 shows the panel 1 with the control unit 10 from the back side. The first converter 30 and the second converter 32 are ar- ranged side by side. Those converters are arranged at a back side of the splitting unit 20 comprising the box 28 and the cover 29. Those converters are arranged at a same distance from the splitting unit 20, however a placement at different dis tances would be as well possible.
It should be noted that the description and drawings merely il lustrate the principles of the proposed control unit. Those skilled in the art will be able to implement various arrange ments that, although not explicitly described or shown herein, embody the principles of the invention.
