Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Anzeige eines Füllstandes mindestens einer Betriebsflüssigkeit für ein Fahrzeug, wobei die Betriebsflüssigkeit in einen Behälter, insbesondere einen Ausgleichsbehälter eingefüllt ist.The invention relates to a device for indicating a level of at least one operating fluid for a vehicle, wherein the operating fluid is filled into a container, in particular a surge tank.
Aus
- – Darstellen des maximalen Füllstandes als grafisches Element bestimmter Erstreckung,
- – Erfassen des Ist-Wertes des Füllstandes der Betriebsflüssigkeit,
- – Erzeugen und Darstellen eines weiteren grafischen Elementes, wobei eine Erstreckung der grafischen Elemente eine prozentuale Relation zwischen maximalem Füllstand und Ist-Wert wiedergibt.
- Representing the maximum fill level as a graphical element of particular extent,
- Detecting the actual value of the filling level of the operating fluid,
- Generating and displaying a further graphical element, wherein an extension of the graphical elements represents a percentage relation between maximum level and actual value.
In der Steuereinheit ist für mindestens eine Betriebsflüssigkeit mindestens ein Grenzwert zugeordnet, wobei das grafische Element für den Ist-Wert bei Unterschreitung des Grenzwertes optisch hervorgehoben dargestellt wird.At least one limit value is assigned in the control unit for at least one operating fluid, wherein the graphical element for the actual value is shown optically highlighted when the limit value is undershot.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine gegenüber dem Stand der Technik verbesserte Vorrichtung zur Anzeige eines Füllstandes mindestens einer Betriebsflüssigkeit für ein Fahrzeug anzugeben.The invention has for its object to provide a comparison with the prior art improved device for displaying a level of at least one operating fluid for a vehicle.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die in Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.The object is achieved by the features specified in
Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Advantageous developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zur Anzeige eines Füllstandes mindestens einer Betriebsflüssigkeit für ein Fahrzeug umfasst einen Behälter, insbesondere Ausgleichsbehälter, in den die Betriebsflüssigkeit eingefüllt ist, wobei der Behälter im Bodenbereich einen im Wesentlichen senkrecht vom Bodenbereich abgehenden rohrartigen Fortsatz aufweist. In dem Behälter ist ein Schwimmkörper angeordnet, an dem ein flexibles Element befestigt ist, welches in den rohrartigen Fortsatz hineinreicht, wobei ein unterer Teil des rohrartigen Fortsatzes transparent ausgeführt ist, so dass anhand eines unteren Endes des flexiblen Elementes in dem unteren Teil der Füllstand ermittelbar ist.The device according to the invention for displaying a level of at least one operating fluid for a vehicle comprises a container, in particular expansion tank, in which the operating fluid is filled, wherein the container in the bottom region has a tube-like extension extending substantially perpendicularly from the bottom region. In the container, a float is arranged, on which a flexible element is attached, which extends into the tubular extension, wherein a lower part of the tubular extension is made transparent, so that can be determined based on a lower end of the flexible element in the lower part of the level is.
Mittels der erfindungemäßen Vorrichtung ist im Vergleich zu der aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Vorrichtung eine kostengünstige und vereinfachte Lösung zur Anzeige des Füllstandes der Betriebsflüssigkeit in dem Behälter geschaffen.By means of the device according to the invention, in comparison to the device known from the prior art, a cost-effective and simplified solution for indicating the level of the operating fluid in the container is provided.
Die Vorrichtung ist rein mechanisch ausgeführt, wodurch ein Ausfall von elektronischen Komponenten zur Anzeige des Füllstandes vermieden ist.The device is designed purely mechanical, whereby a failure of electronic components to indicate the level is avoided.
Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung werden anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert.Embodiments of the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to drawings.
