Definitions

the invention relates to a key switch arrangement with one or more electrical pushbuttons, each with an operating rocker.
Pushbutton switch assemblies that a rocker movement of the operating rocker by horizontal axis as well as those that rocker movement around a vertical axis allow, are used in particular as input devices for installation bus systems.
the invention relates in particular to button arrangements in which the Actuator rockers are movable about a vertical axis.
DE-Gbm 93 05 822.5 shows such a button arrangement, in which four Operating rockers are arranged transversely to the longitudinal direction of the installation device. Such an arrangement is preferably used when the individual actuating rockers should be labeled.
the arrangement known from it has relatively small actuating rockers, which by are surrounded by a frame. There are several spring elements under the rocker switches arranged, which cause the rocker to return to its neutral position.
the invention has for its object a pushbutton arrangement with at least specify a push button switch, the rocker switch is easy to assemble is, and in the separate return springs are avoided.
microswitches used for rocker reset.
the microswitches can be operated individually are operated by pressing one side of the rocker or both at the same time by pressing the middle of the rocker.
the microswitch function e.g. Blind movement up or down or movement stop, can be done by software for evaluation of the switch actuation.
the rockers are easy to put on a base and through Snap fit. It is particularly advantageous that the actuating rockers can be carried out over a large area and can protrude from the base. It is not the rocker switch surrounding frame available.
the actuating rockers can be equipped with a illuminated text field and with a status display.
Another Design relates to remote control of the key switch arrangement by means of a receiver for infrared light signals, which is under an infrared transparent Cover of the base can be arranged.
a push button switch be arranged to switch the rocker lights.
FIG. 1 shows a key switch arrangement 26 with three key switches 10.
the key switch 10 are on a common base 8 as a carrier three rockers 3 arranged.
An extension not covered by the rockers 3 the base 8 is covered by an infrared-transparent cover 27.
an actuation button 20 for actuating a Microswitch arranged with the lighting devices for lighting of text fields 11 on the rocker switches 3 are switchable.
a receiver for infrared light signals can be arranged, whereby remote control of the button arrangement is made possible.
a light guide wedge 2 is in each case in an incision or shaft 21 of the rockers 3 can be inserted and covered by means of a transparent cover 1. Between the Cover 1 and the light guide wedge 2 is a transparent insert 12 that can be labeled insertable. This arrangement forms the illuminated text field 11.
the cover 1 can be hooked and snapped in by means of locking elements 17, 18. It can have a magnifying glass effect be trained.
the light guide wedge 2 can have coatings 22, 23 for light reflection carry.
Reference number 19 denotes a status display with which a switching state can be displayed.
Fig. 2 shows further details of the design of the key switch 10 including the facility for lettering field lighting and status display.
the actuating rocker 3 can be mounted on the base 8 simply by snapping it on.
locking hooks 24 on the rocker 3 and locking means 25 on the base 8 serve as Counterparts. These means 24, 25 limit or determine the rocker movement the rest position.
a pushbutton switch 10 each includes two, also as micro pushbuttons designated microswitch 13 with which switching commands can be given and by Actuation of the rocker 3 can be actuated via actuation cams 30 formed there.
the resetting force inherent in the microswitches 13 is used for resetting the Operating rockers 3 in their neutral position. This makes separate spring means avoided.
the rockers 3 have a large area. In a practical button switch arrangement 26, the rockers 3 have an actuation area of approximately 90x25 mm. Nevertheless, the rockers can be pressed anywhere without tilting. This is achieved by means of parallel guidance, which can be seen from Fig. 2 in connection with Fig. 3.
FIG. 3 shows the underside of a rocker 3. This has four molded-on locking hooks 24 with two adjacent guide webs 31 each. With the guide bars 31 the rocker 3 is guided in guide shafts of the base 8, which in the drawing figures are not visible.
a first light-emitting diode is on the printed circuit board 9 LED 4 arranged, which has a light entry surface 14 at the thick end 15 of the Optical fiber wedge 2 feeds light on a light exit surface 16 via the Title block spreads out.
the status display 19 is formed by a light guide element 6, in which one on the Printed circuit board 9 arranged second light-emitting diode LED 5 feeds light.
the light guides 2, 6 are each arranged somewhat spaced from the LEDs 4, 5, which enables a rocker movement.
the pushbutton arrangement 26 is on by means of a pin 28 and a multiple plug 29 Basic device with bus coupling can be plugged on.
