Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch for switching two circuits.
  • Such switches can be used in particular in motor vehicles, for example as NO / NC change or double switch.
  • the known from the prior art constructions are relatively expensive.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a switch, which is characterized by particularly low manufacturing costs, redundancy and reliability and the ability to simultaneously switch two independent circuits such that at least one contact pair closes and opens a pair of contacts simultaneously.
  • a switch for switching two circuits comprising a housing, a plunger, two contacts of a first circuit, two contacts of a second circuit and a switching contact having a first shape in the initial state, in which the first circuit is closed and the second circuit is opened, and can be brought by actuation of the plunger in a second form in which the first circuit is opened and the second circuit is closed.
  • the switch according to the invention is based on the idea, with a and to switch the same switching contact two different circuits and to use the transition of the switching contact from a first mold into a second mold to close the contacts of a first circuit and to open the contacts of a second circuit. Since only a single switching contact is required for this, results in a simple structure that pulls low production costs.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show a change-over switch 10 which has a housing 12 in which four contacts 1, 2, 3 and 4 to be switched are accommodated.
  • a plunger 14 is slidably mounted in the housing 12.
  • the plunger 14 cooperates with a switching contact 16, which can open or close the electrical contact between the two contacts 1, 2, which form a first circuit, and the two contacts 3, 4, which form a second circuit.
  • the switching contact 16 is made of spring steel sheet or other elastically resilient and electrically conductive material and has a generally rectangular basic shape (see Figure 3). Considered in a plane containing the contacts 3 and 4 (view of Figures 1 and 5), the switching contact 16 is curved in the initial state to the plunger 14 out; it has the form of a snap spring. At the short side edges of the generally rectangular body of the switching contact 16 retaining tabs 18 are provided by means of which the switching contact is mounted on the housing 12. In each case between two adjacent retaining tabs 18 extends outwardly in each case a contact tab 20, which is formed here in each case 3 individual tabs (see Figure 3).
  • the contact tabs 20 are located on the contacts 3 and 4; the circuit through the contacts 3 and 4 is thus closed (see also Figure 4).
  • the switching contact 16 has an approximately planar shape. Starting from the longer side edges of the rectangular main body of the switching contact 16 contact tabs 22 which are associated with the two first contacts 1, 2 and also consist of several individual tabs. In the initial state, that is, when the plunger 14 is not actuated, the contact tabs 22 are at a distance from the first contacts 1, 2; the first circuit formed by these contacts is thus open.
  • the plunger 14 When the plunger 14 is actuated, it presses on the center of the arcuate switching contact 16. This is converted from its first shape, which is shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 with solid lines, into a second shape, which is shown in FIGS Figures 5 and 6 is shown in dashed lines.
  • the switching contact 16 against the retaining force acting from the retaining tabs 18, snaps over a dead center down, so that the contact tabs 20 are lifted from the contacts 3, 4; the second circuit formed by these contacts is thus opened (see the state of the switching contact 16 shown in dashed lines in FIG. 5).
  • the switching contact 16 in the contacts 1, 2 containing plane is displaced substantially translationally down, so that the contact tabs 22 rest on the contacts 1, 2; the first circuit formed by these is thus closed.
  • the switching contact 16 snaps back into its first form, in which the first circuit formed by the contacts 1, 2 is opened and the second circuit formed by the contacts 3, 4 is closed.
  • FIG. 8 shows a variant embodiment which differs from the first embodiment due to the deviating configuration of the contact lugs 20, 22.
  • each two opposing contact tabs 22 are used, which are each formed here of four individual tabs.
  • each two contact tabs 20 are used, which lie on one side and the other side of the respective retaining tab 18.
  • Each contact tab 20 in turn consists of several individual tabs. In this way, a greater contact reliability results in the contact.
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 show a changeover switch according to a second embodiment. This differs from the switch according to the first embodiment in that below the switching contact 16, a second switching contact 16 'is arranged. With regard to its shape and its function, the second switching contact 16 'corresponds to the first switching contact 16 with the difference that the second switching contact 16' is made smaller, so that it fits under the switching contact 16. It is actuated by an extension 30 formed on the plunger 14, which extends through the switching contact 16 and on the second switching contact 16 'attacks. In this way, twice the number of contacts can be switched at the same time.
