Furthermore, a switching device is provided, which is arranged in a fixed position with respect to the control lever and can be actuated in a neutral position of the control lever by means of an actuating member. In this known control device, no electrical actuating means are provided which act on the clutch to be controlled or on the overall function of the control device. This results in the disadvantage that there is no so-called electrical fallback level which would stabilize the malfunction in the event of a malfunction of the mechanical elements in this known control device according to the safety standard customary today.

Der zweite Stößel wird in einer Außengewinde aufweisenden Buchse (28) geführt, welche auf der dem Geräteträger (1) abgewandten Seite des Steuerhebels (4, 5) in die Bohrung (23, 24) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) eingeschraubt ist. Der zweite Stößel weist auf seiner dem Geräteträger (1) zugewandten Seite einen Fortsatz (27) auf, welcher bei einer Verschiebebewegung des zweiten Stößels in Richtung auf den ersten Stößel zu in den den geringeren Querschnitt aufweisenden Bereich (23) der Bohrung (23, 24) eintaucht.The actuating element is designed as a second plunger, which has a collar (26). The second plunger is guided in an externally threaded bushing (28) which is screwed into the bore (23, 24) of the control lever (4, 5) on the side of the control lever (4, 5) facing away from the equipment carrier (1). The second plunger has an extension (27) on its side facing the equipment carrier (1), which, when the second plunger moves in the direction of the first plunger, into the region (23) of the bore (23, 24) with the smaller cross section ) immersed.

Zwischen den einander zugewandten Seiten des ersten Teilstücke (19) des Betätigungsgliedes und des Betätigungselementes (25) ist ein vorzugsweise als Kugel ausgebildetes zweites Teilstück (29) des Betätigungsgliedes angeordnet. Das zweite Teilstück kann jedoch auch eine andere Form haben, z.B. eine zylindrische Form.
Das zweite Teilstück (29) weist vorzugsweise den gleichen Querschnitt auf wie der Fortsatz (21) des ersten Teilstückes (19) bzw. wie der Fortsatz (27) des Betätigungselementes (25, 26, 27).Between the mutually facing sides of the first sections (19) of the actuating member and the actuating element (25) there is a second section (29) of the actuating member, preferably designed as a ball. However, the second section can also have a different shape, for example a cylindrical shape.
The second section (29) preferably has the same cross section as the extension (21) of the first section (19) or as the extension (27) of the actuating element (25, 26, 27).

Der Querschnitt der aneinander angrenzenden Bereiche (18) bzw. (23) der ersten Bohrung (16, 17, 18) und der zweiten Bohrung (23, 24) sowie der Querschnitt des zweiten Teilstückes (29) sind so bemessen, daß das zweite Teilstück (29) mit nur geringem Spiel in diesen Bereichen (18 bzw. 23) geführt wird.The cross section of the adjoining areas (18) and (23) of the first bore (16, 17, 18) and the second bore (23, 24) and the cross section of the second section (29) are dimensioned such that the second section (29) with little play in these areas (18 and 23) is performed.

Die axiale Erstreckung dieser Bereiche (18 bzw. 23) der Bohrungen (16, 17, 18 bzw. 22, 23) und der Weg des ersten Teilstückes (19) und der Weg des Betätigungselementes (25) sind so bemessen, daß das zweite Teilstück (29) nicht in die den größeren Querschnitt aufweisenden Bereiche (17 bzw. 23) der Bohrungen (16, 17, 18 bzw. 23, 24) gelangen und so seine Führung verlieren kann.The axial extent of these areas (18 and 23) of the bores (16, 17, 18 and 22, 23) and the path of the first section (19) and the path of the actuating element (25) are dimensioned such that the second section (29) do not get into the areas (17 or 23) of the bores (16, 17, 18 or 23, 24) which have the larger cross section and can thus lose their guidance.

Die Bohrungen (16, 17, 18 bzw. 23, 24) brauchen selbstverständlich nicht abgestuft ausgebildet zu sein. Sie können über ihre gesamte axiale Erstreckung den gleichen konstanten Querschnitt aufweisen. Sie können zylindrisch ausgebildet sein oder auch eine andersartige Querschnittsform aufweisen (z.B. quadratisch oder oval).The bores (16, 17, 18 and 23, 24) do not of course need to be graduated. They can have the same constant cross-section over their entire axial extent. They can be cylindrical or have a different cross-sectional shape (eg square or oval).

Desgleichen können auch die beiden Teilstücke (19 bzw. 29) und das Betätigungselement (25) den gleichen konstanten Querschnitt aufweisen. Auf einen Bund und einen zusätzlichen Fortsatz kann beim ersten Teilstück (19) und beim Betätigungselement (25) verzichtet werden.Likewise, the two sections (19 and 29) and the actuating element (25) can have the same constant cross section. A collar and an additional extension can be dispensed with in the first section (19) and in the actuating element (25).

Bei einer solchen Ausführung der Bohrungen und der Stößel müssen an den Stößeln jedoch außerhalb der Bohrungen angeordnete Anschläge vorgesehen werden, um den Hub der Stößel zu begrenzen.In such a design of the bores and the plungers, however, stops arranged outside the bores must be provided on the plungers in order to limit the stroke of the plungers.

Die Funktion der im vorstehenden beschriebenen Steuereinrichtung wird nachfolgend näher erläutert.The function of the control device described above is explained in more detail below.

Es wird angenommen, daß nach dem Starten des Motors eines Schiffes der Motor bei erhöhter Drehzahl warmlaufen soll, ohne daß bei einer zu diesem Zweck erforderlichen Verschwenkbewegung des Steuerhebels (4, 5) um die Längsachse der Welle (3) die Kupplung mittels des das Stellglied für die Kupplung aktivierenden Schalters geschaltet wird.It is assumed that after starting the engine of a ship, the engine should warm up at increased speed without the need for a pivoting movement of the control lever (4, 5) about the longitudinal axis of the shaft (3) required for the clutch by means of the actuator is switched for the clutch activating switch.

Das aus dem Steuerhebel (4, 5) herausragende Betätigungselement (25) für das Betätigungsglied wird in Richtung auf den Geräteträger (1) zu in die Bohrung (23, 24) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) hineingedrückt. Da in der Neutralstellung des Steuerhebels (4, 5) die Bohrung (16, 17, 18) im Geräteträger (1) und die Bohrung (23, 24) im Steuerhebel (4, 5) einander gegenüberliegen, wird das zweite Teilstück (29) des Betätigungsgliedes aus der Bohrung (23, 24) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) heraus und in die Bohrung (16, 17, 18) des Geräteträgers (1) hineingedrückt. Bei diesem Vorgang wird das erste Teilstück (19, 20, 21) des Betätigungsgliedes vom zweiten Teilstück (29) in Richtung auf das Schaltglied (15) des elektrischen Schalters (14, 15) zu verschoben. Das erste Teilstück (19, 20, 21) des Betätigunsgliedes bringt dabei das Schaltglied (15) des Schalters (14, 15) in eine Stellung, in welcher der Schalter (14, 15) derart geschaltet wird, daß die Spannungsversorgung zum Stellglied der Kupplung unterbrochen wird.The actuating element (25) protruding from the control lever (4, 5) for the actuating element is pressed in the direction of the device carrier (1) into the bore (23, 24) of the control lever (4, 5). Since in the neutral position of the control lever (4, 5) the bore (16, 17, 18) in the equipment carrier (1) and the bore (23, 24) in the control lever (4, 5) are opposite each other, the second section (29) the actuator out of the bore (23, 24) of the control lever (4, 5) and pressed into the bore (16, 17, 18) of the equipment carrier (1). In this process the first section (19, 20, 21) of the actuating element is displaced from the second section (29) towards the switching element (15) of the electrical switch (14, 15). The first section (19, 20, 21) of the actuator brings the switching element (15) of the switch (14, 15) into a position in which the switch (14, 15) is switched such that the voltage supply to the actuator of the clutch is interrupted.

Bei diesem Vorgang ist das zweite Teilstück (29) so weit in die Bohrung (16, 17, 18) des Geräteträgers (1) eingetaucht, daß der Steuerhebel (4, 5) um die Längsachse der Welle (3) zwecks Erhöhung der Motordrehzahl verschwenkt werden kann.In this process, the second section (29) is immersed so far in the bore (16, 17, 18) of the equipment carrier (1) that the control lever (4, 5) pivots about the longitudinal axis of the shaft (3) in order to increase the engine speed can be.

Beim Verschwenkvorgang des Steuerhebels (4, 5) aus seiner Neutralstellung heraus wird die ebene Fläche des topfförmigen Teiles (4) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) an der Bohrung (16, 17, 18) im Geräteträger (1) vorbeigeführt und deckt die Bohrung (16, 17, 18) ab. Der Steuerhebel (4, 5) oder ein mit diesem verbundenes Teil dient jetzt als Verriegelungselement für das Betätigungsglied. Das zweite Teilstück (29) wird vom Randbereich des topfförmigen Teiles (4) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) in der Bohrung (16, 17, 18) des Geräteträgers (1) gehalten. Das Betätigungsglied (erstes Teilstück 19 und zweites Teilstück 29) und das Schaltglied (15) des Schalters (14, 15) verbleiben in ihrer eingenommenen Stellung.When swiveling the control lever (4, 5) out of its neutral position, the flat surface of the pot-shaped part (4) of the control lever (4, 5) is guided past the hole (16, 17, 18) in the equipment carrier (1) and covers the hole (16, 17, 18). The control lever (4, 5) or a part connected to it now serves as a locking element for the actuator. The second section (29) is held by the edge area of the pot-shaped part (4) of the control lever (4, 5) in the bore (16, 17, 18) of the device carrier (1). The actuator (first section 19 and second section 29) and the switching element (15) of the switch (14, 15) remain in their assumed position.

Hat der Motor die gewünschte Temperatur erreicht, so wird der Steuerhebel (4, 5) wieder in seine Neutralstellung gebracht. Durch die Kraft des Federelementes (22) wird das erste Teilstück (19, 20, 21) des Betätigungsgliedes in Richtung auf den Steuerhebel (4, 5) zu verschoben. Das zweite Teilstück (29) wird aus der Bohrung (16, 17, 18) des Geräteträgers (1) heraus und in die Bohrung (23, 24) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) hineingedrückt. Dabei taucht das zweite Teilstück (29) so weit in die Bohrung (23, 24) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) ein, daß der Steuerhebel (4, 5) wieder um die Längsachse der Welle (3) verschwenkt werden kann. Da die Spannungsversorgung zum Schalter für die Aktivierung des Stellgliedes der Kupplung jetzt nicht mehr unterbrochen ist, kann die Kupplung wieder geschaltet werden.When the engine has reached the desired temperature, the control lever (4, 5) is returned to its neutral position. The force of the spring element (22) causes the first section (19, 20, 21) of the actuating element to move towards the control lever (4, 5) postponed. The second section (29) is pressed out of the bore (16, 17, 18) of the device carrier (1) and into the bore (23, 24) of the control lever (4, 5). The second section (29) plunges so far into the bore (23, 24) of the control lever (4, 5) that the control lever (4, 5) can again be pivoted about the longitudinal axis of the shaft (3). Since the voltage supply to the switch for activating the clutch actuator is no longer interrupted, the clutch can be switched again.

Das zweite Teilstück (29) wird außerhalb der Neutralstellung des Steuerhebels (4, 5) bei nicht betätigter Schalteinrichtung (14, 15) von der dem Steuerhebel (4, 5) zugewandten Seite (ebene Fläche) des Geräteträgers (1) in der Bohrung (23, 24) des Steuerhebels (4, 5) gehalten. Ein unbeabsichtigtes Schalten (Ausrücken) der Kupplung ist jetzt nicht möglich, da das Betätigungsglied (19, 29) verriegelt ist. Die beiden Teilstücke (19 und 29) werden bei Nichtbetätigen des Betätigungsgliedes aneinander vorbeigeführt.The second section (29) is outside the neutral position of the control lever (4, 5) when the switching device (14, 15) is not actuated from the side (flat surface) of the device carrier (1) facing the control lever (4, 5) in the bore ( 23, 24) of the control lever (4, 5) held. Unintentional switching (disengaging) of the clutch is now not possible because the actuator (19, 29) is locked. The two sections (19 and 29) are guided past one another when the actuating member is not actuated.

Der Fortsatz an dem ersten Teilstück des Betätigungsgliedes (19, 29) und der Fortsatz an dem Betätigungselement für das Betätigungsglied sind so bemessen, daß der Fortsatz des ersten Teilstückes (19) nicht in die zum zweiten Teilstück gehörige Bohrung und der Fortsatz des Betätigungselementes (25) nicht in die zum ersten Teilstück (19) gehörige Bohrung eintauchen und so ein Verschwenkendes Steuerhebels (4, 5) verhindern kann.The extension on the first section of the actuating member (19, 29) and the extension on the actuating element for the actuating member are dimensioned such that the extension of the first section (19) does not enter the bore belonging to the second section and the extension of the actuating element (25 ) do not dip into the hole belonging to the first section (19) and thus prevent the control lever (4, 5) from pivoting.

Um ein derartiges Eintauchen des Fortsatzes des ersten Teilstückes (19) bzw. des Fortsatzes des Betätigungselementes (25) in die Bohrung des jeweils anderen Teiles zu verhindern, können diese Bohrungen abgestuft ausgebildet sein und die Abstufungen mit dem am ersten Teilstück (19) bzw. mit dem am Betätigungselement (25) angeordneten Bund Anschläge bilden. Die Teilstücke (19, 29) des Betätigungsgliedes und das Betätigungselement können auch unterschiedliche Querschnittsformen aufweisen.In order to immerse the extension of the first section (19) or the extension of the actuating element in this way To prevent (25) into the bore of the other part, these bores can be graduated and the gradations can form stops with the collar arranged on the first section (19) or with the collar arranged on the actuating element (25). The sections (19, 29) of the actuator and the actuator can also have different cross-sectional shapes.

Die im vorstehenden beschrieben Steuereinrichtung läßt sich selbstverständlich nicht nur in Schiffssteuerungen einsetzen, sondern kann in jeder Einrichtung oder Anlage eingesetzt werden, für die eine Steuereinrichtung mit einer Schalteinrichtung benötigt wird, mittels welcher die Steuereinrichtung zusätzlich zu ihren sonstigen durch die Bewegung des Steuerhebels bewirkten Steuerfunktionen eine Schaltfunktion ermöglichen soll.The control device described above can of course not only be used in ship controls, but can be used in any device or system for which a control device with a switching device is required, by means of which the control device in addition to its other control functions caused by the movement of the control lever Switch function should enable.

Die Schalteinrichtung (14, 15) kann als ein elektrischer Schalter ausgebildet sein, sie kann aber auch als eine mechanische Schalteinrichtung ausgebildet sein, welche z.B. mit einer auf der Welle (3) verschiebbar angeordneten Steuerscheibe zusammenwirkt. Die übrigen Schalt- und Steuermittel, die im Ausführungsbeispiel als elektrische Schalter ausgewiesen sind, können selbstverständlich auch durch rein mechanische Schalt- und Steuermittel ersetzt werden.The switching device (14, 15) can be designed as an electrical switch, but it can also be designed as a mechanical switching device, which e.g. cooperates with a control disk which is arranged displaceably on the shaft (3). The other switching and control means, which are shown in the exemplary embodiment as electrical switches, can of course also be replaced by purely mechanical switching and control means.
