Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical Push button switch according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a corresponding rocker button is provided for the device, whose pivot pin forming the two pivot axes are stored in the recesses of the device walls.
  • This Bearing cuts are V-shaped in the direction of the contacts (downwards) open, i.e. they expand downward.
  • the bearing journals are spring-loaded pressed upwards in curves of the bearing incisions and hereby supported upwards, so that each one Form the tilt axis of the rocker button if the opposite one Rocker side is pressure operated.
  • the one on the each actuated side arranged journal free and unhindered in the widening bearing incisions move down.
  • the present Invention the task based on a push button switch create that is particularly easy to assemble, and from a design point of view with improved functional properties is simplified.
  • the at least two-part design the frame construction achieves that the seesaw is very simple from above into the guide slots which are expediently open at the edge can be used, then after touchdown of the frame closed the guide slots at the top and thereby the rocker in the area of Bearing approaches to form the swivel axes are offset upwards becomes. Thanks to the two swivel axes on the outside can switch by pressing on one of the rocker ends minor height shift can be carried out. Since the Frame supports the swivel axes from above in the case of the height-adjustable storage of the Swivel axes through the frame an upper stop educated.
  • the guide slots are part of an between the frame and the support frame arranged bearing frame are.
  • the guide slots are open at the top trained and covered by the frame in such a way that the frame as an upper stop for the Bearing approaches forming pivot axes.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 there is an inventive electrical key switch combination 1 off a lower support frame 2.
  • This support frame 2 is in particular rectangular.
  • the support frame 2 has a base plate 3, which has a peripheral edge web 4.
  • a circuit board 5 can be used in the area enclosed by the web 4 .
  • This circuit board 5 has electrical line connections (not shown) and electrical switch contacts 6, 7 which are preferably as Rubber switching elements are formed. These rubber switching elements 6 are resilient and act as a compression spring.
  • the rubber switching elements 6, 7 are arranged in pairs, d. H. there are two opposite each other at a distance Switching elements 6, 7 available. In the present Embodiment are four pairs of rubber switching elements 6, 7 arranged in parallel next to each other, so that the Pushbutton combination 1 from four individual pushbuttons is formed.
  • a bearing frame 8 is put on on the Support frame 2 in the area of the edge web 4.
  • This bearing frame 8 consists of a circumferential Edge web 9 and in the example shown from three Separators 10.
  • the number of separators 10 depends on the Number of 1 contained in the push button switch combination 1 Push buttons off. So with four individual push buttons three dividers 10 available, and a larger one or a smaller number of individual pushbutton switches or reduce the number of dividers accordingly. If a single push button switch is now implemented, so the dividers 10 are omitted, and it is only the circumferential Edge web 9 formed.
  • the dividers 10 are of this type arranged so that they are centered between the neighboring ones Switching element pairs 6.7 run.
  • the bearing frame 8 is used for the pivotable mounting of individual rockers 12, into one between the dividers 10 and the edge web 9 formed chamber 13 are used.
  • the rockers 12 are plate-shaped and each have in the area of their two ends an outer pivot axis 14,15. This Swivel axes 14, 15 are formed on the rocker edge Bearing approaches 16 formed. These bearing approaches 16 will in perpendicular to the base plate 3, one-sided open edge Guide slots 17 added, which are in the Separators 10 and the edge web 9 are located. In the middle between the switching elements 6, 7 is in each case on the bearing frame Bearing web 18 formed between the dividers 10th or the edge web 9 and a dividing web 10 runs.
  • This Bearing webs 18 are located between the rocker 12 and the Circuit board 5 at a certain distance below the Rocker 12 in its basic position (see Fig. 3). You own a central one, preferably running across the rocker width Bearing edge 19. Extend from this bearing edge 19 with a slight inclination towards the base plate 3 both sides of the web surfaces 20. On the circuit board 5 are formed below the bearing webs 18 contact body 27, which support the bearing frame 8. To lock the key switch combination or the individual key switch a frame 22, which is mounted over the remaining elements is pushed and the support frame 2 and the bearing frame 8 encloses.
  • this frame 22 covers also the openings of the edge-open guide slots 17, so that the frame 22 as an upper stop for the Serves pivot axes 14, 15 within the guide slots 17 slidably mounted by means of the bearing approaches are.
  • This closure function of the frame 22 is for through the guide slots 17 in the region of the edge web 9 an upper bend 23 is reached on the frame wall 24, and in the area of the guide slots within the Partitions 10 by bridge bridges 25, which are parallel to the Partitions 10 run in the frame 22, and their Width corresponds approximately to the thickness of the separating webs 10.
  • the frame 22 is in the pushed-on state with the Support frame 2 by means of suitable connecting means, for. B. Locking elements or bending tongues, positively connected.
  • On the rockers 12 can be detachable transparent covers 26 be attached. Below these covers 26 can Label carriers can be arranged on the rocker. The Attachment of the covers 26 is done by clamping or Rest connections.
  • the support frame 2, the base plate 3, the bearing frame 8 and the rockers 12 are preferably made of plastic.
  • the frame is preferably made as a metal part, it can but can also be manufactured as a plastic part.
  • Fig. 4 shows a switch position in which the rocker after right is pressed down.
  • this Switch position the rocker 12 with its underside on the Bearing 18 is present, in the drawing on the right bridge surface.
  • the opposite rocker side is deflected upwards, whereby it can be clearly seen that there is only a small deflection angle and the seesaw 12 protrudes only slightly beyond the frame 22.
  • the bearing attachments remain in this switch position 16 on the frame 22 in the drawing on the left Page received.
  • the switching position shown in Fig. 4 is only maintained as long as external pressure on the seesaw is exercised. As soon as this outside pressure doesn't the rocker 12 goes into its basic position due to that exerted by the rubber switching elements 6,7 Spring force back.
