Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved safety switch, specifically designed for application to motor vehicle power windows.
- prior power window switches usually comprise a push-button by means of which the window glasses of a motor-vehicle are caused to be raised or lowered under the control of a driving electric motor.
- the document DE-A- 2 402 613 discloses a switch having substantially the features of the preamble of Claim 1.
- the aim of the present invention is to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks, by providing an improved safety switch specifically designed for application to motor vehicle power windows, which is adapted to prevent the window glasses for being accidentally operated.
- a main object of the present invention is to provide such a switch which is very reliable and safe in operation, can be easily made starting from easily available elements and materials and which, moreover, is very reliable from a mere economic standpoint.
- the safety switch for power windows which has been specifically designed for application to motor vehicles and the like, according to the present invention, and generally indicated at the reference number 1, comprises a base body 2, supporting thereon a pivoted push-button 3 which can swing about a central fixed pin 4.
- a slot 6 which allows, in cooperation with perforated support elements 7 affixed to the base body 2 and arranged on the front and on the rear, respectively, of a portion, indicated at the reference number 8, of the swinging push-button 3, the insertion of pins 9 provided for locking on the switch 1 a covering element 10.
- this covering element is coupled to the switch with an offset relationship.
- the covering element can also be snap engaged on the switch.
- said covering element is so contoured and/or designed as to allow to introduce into a groove 11 formed thereon, a finger of a hand, in order to cause the glass panel of the window to be operated.
- the covering element is provided with a knurled portion 12 preventing the hand finger from slipping, as the covering element is pressed in order to cause the glass panel to be lowered.
- a safety switch which comprises a covering element specifically designed for preventing the glass panels from being accidentally operated.
- This safety switch accordingly, is much more reliable than prior analogous safety switches and, moreover, it is very simple from a mere construction standpoint.
- the used materials provided that they are compatible to the intended use, as well as the contingent size and shapes, can be any, according to requirements.

Claims (3)
- Ein Sicherheitsschalter (1) für elektrische Fenster von Kraftfahrzeugen, der einen aufgehängten Druckschalter (3) umfaßt, der um einen mittig befestigten Stift (4) schwingt und auf dem versetzt eine geformte Abdeckung (10) angeordnet ist, die die Betätigung dieses Druckschalters (3) ermöglicht, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß dieser Schalter einen Sockel (2) umfaßt, der diesen schwingenden Druckschalter (3) trägt, daß in einem Bereich dieses schwingenden Druckschalters (3) ein Schlitz (6) bereitgestellt ist, der zusammen mit gelochten Trageteilen (7), die an diesem Sockel (2) befestigt sind, das Eingreifen von Befestigungsstiften (9) zur Befestigung dieser Abdeckung (10) auf diesem Schalter erlaubt, und daß in dieser Abdeckung (10) eine Vertiefung (11) gebildet ist, wobei, wenn ein Finger in diese Vertiefung eingeführt wird, um diese Abdeckung (10) anzuheben, ein Bereich (8) dieses schwingenden Druckschalters (3) niedergedrückt wird, wodurch ein damit verbundenes Kontaktteil geschlossen und eine Glasscheibe zum Steigen veranlaßt wird, und wenn diese Abdeckung (10) durch den auf einen weiteren Bereich (5) dieses schwingenden Druckschalters (3) ausgeübten Druck niedergedrückt wird, dieses Kontaktteil geschlossen werden wird, was das Sinken dieser Glasscheibe bewirkt.
- Ein Sicherheitsschalter nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß diese Abdeckung (10) auf diesem Sicherheitsschalter (1) schnappbefestigt ist.
- Ein Sicherheitsschalter für elektrische Fenster nach den Ansprüchen 1 und 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß diese Abdeckung (10) mit einem oberen, geriffelten Bereich (12) versehen ist.
