Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch actuation mechanism with a Rocker arm, which is guided in a base pivotable on all sides Bearing part and a shaft attached to this.
  • a switch actuation mechanism that for switches such as mirror adjustment switches in vehicles or switches for game consoles and the like can be used, the rocker arm is off can be swiveled in all directions and through a central rest position Spring force applied to the rest position.
  • the switch actuation mechanism must corresponding degrees of mobility have coupled with variable restoring forces and locking positions could be. Complex movement patterns are also appropriate numerous, coordinated components can be realized.
  • the invention provides a switch actuation mechanism a complex movement pattern with the least effort on components for the rocker arm.
  • the Switch actuation mechanism equipped with a spring washer, which is axially supported on the bearing part of the rocker arm and with its outer circumference on an inner side surrounding the bearing part Contact surface of the base is present.
  • This spring washer alone is in able the restoring forces to return the rocker arm into its deliver the central rest position from any actuation position.
  • the spring washer is curved and with its concave side facing the contact surface of the base. This configuration of the spring washer has the actuating and restoring force a degressive characteristic.
  • the spring washer can the restoring force Have the rocker arm turn back to its rest position.
  • the rocker arm with the spring washer is rotationally fixed coupled.
  • the spring washer and the contact surface on the inside of the base have interacting shapes, in particular sliding ramp surfaces so that the Spring force generate a force component acting in the circumferential direction can.
  • the switch actuation mechanism is in a base or housing arranged, of which only one wall part 10 is shown in FIG is.
  • this wall part 10 is a spherical cap-shaped bearing holder 12 formed.
  • this bearing seat 12 is a corresponding spherical cap-shaped bearing part 14 of a rocker arm added, 1 of which, in addition to the bearing part 14, is connected to the latter Shaft 16 is shown.
  • the bearing part 14 has on the spherical cap-shaped Area then a cylindrical area 18 and at its end facing away from the shaft 16 a radially projecting, circular flange 20.
  • the central opening 22 of the Flange 20 is continued into the interior of the bearing part 14 and forms there a concavely rounded support surface 24.
  • One on the base of the actuating mechanism supported bearing pin 26 extends through the opening 22 and with its spherically rounded free end in contact to the concavely rounded support surface 24.
  • a circular, plate-like curved spring washer 28 placed on the Ring flange 20 axially supported.
  • the concave side of the plate spring 28 is facing the inner surface of the wall part 10.
  • the spring washer 28 has a central hole 30, the shape of which is the outer circumference of the cylindrical Part 18 of the bearing part 14 corresponds.
  • the spring washer 28 lies with its outer circumference 34 on an inside, annular contact surface 36 of the wall part 10.
  • This annular contact surface 36 is in the embodiment shown in the wall part 10 sunk.
  • the spring washer 28 has a number of pronounced on its outer circumference 34 Cam 38, namely four arranged at angular intervals of 90 ° Contact cams.
  • the number and arrangement of the contact cams 38 will determined by the functionality of the switch to be operated.
  • This Cams 38 are shapes that correspond to corresponding shapes the contact surface 36 for the definition of locking positions work together. These locking positions come when the rocker arm rotates 16 about its longitudinal axis.
  • the rocker arm formed by the bearing part 14 and shaft 16 is outgoing pivotable in all directions from the rest position shown in FIG and at the same time rotatable about its axis.
  • the spring washer 28 sets one for the rocker arm in each of its deflection positions Restoring force ready, which in the rest position shown in Figure 1 can lead back. Due to the curved shape of the spring washer 28 the actuating and restoring forces have a degressive characteristic.
  • the spring washer 28 can also be used to reverse the rocker arm Provide restoring forces required in its rest position.
  • To the cams 38 run over ramp-shaped surface areas of the contact surface 36. By the axial pressure on these ramp-shaped surface areas force components oriented in the circumferential direction are generated.
  • the switch actuation mechanism described fulfills with only a few Components all requirements for complex switch functions and switch positions.
  • the simple structure of the actuation mechanism enables rational production in large quantities.
  • the Switching feel of the actuation mechanism can by the nature the spring washer 28 can be largely determined.
  • the main parameters are the choice of material, material thickness, radius of curvature as well as the disc and hole diameter.
  • the curvature of the spring washer 28 with the convex side in contact with the base is supported the peripheral edge of the flange 20 on a spring washer 29, which on Bottom of the base rests and surrounds the bearing pin 26.
