Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen elektrischen Tastschalter mit einer Betätigungswippe, die ein Schriftfeld aufweist. Der Tastschalter kann Teil einer Tasteranordnung mit mehreren solcher Tastschalter sein.The invention relates to an electrical push button switch with an operating rocker, which has a title block. The key switch can be part of a key arrangement be with several such push buttons.
Tasteranordnungen mit beschriftbaren, streifenförmigen Bedienflächen werden vorzugsweise so z.B. an einer Wand montiert, daß die Schriftzeilen horizontal verlaufen, wobei die Betätigungswippe um eine vertikale Achse schwenkt. Es sind Anordnungen bekannt, bei denen ein Rahmen, der mehrere Taster umgibt, ein Schriftfeld trägt, oder bei denen die Tasterwippen ganzflächig oder auf Teilflächen Schriftfelder haben. Solche Tasteranordnungen werden insbesondere zur Bedienung elektronischer Installationsgeräte verwendet. Tasteranordnungen mit beschriftbaren Wippen sind beispielsweise aus G 93 05 822 und G 94 06 434 bekannt.Button arrangements with inscribable, strip-shaped control surfaces are preferred so e.g. mounted on a wall so that the characters run horizontally, the actuating rocker pivots about a vertical axis. They are orders known, in which a frame that surrounds several buttons, a title block bears, or where the pushbuttons cover the entire surface or partial areas of text fields to have. Such button arrangements are particularly electronic to operate Installation devices used. Button arrangements with inscribable rockers are known for example from G 93 05 822 and G 94 06 434.
Nachteilig ist bei den bekannten Tastern, daß eine Beschriftung nur bei vorhandenem Umgebungslicht lesbar ist, da keine Eigenbeleuchtung vorhanden ist.A disadvantage of the known buttons that labeling is only available Ambient light is legible because there is no self-illumination.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen elektrischen Tastschalter anzugeben, dessen Betätigungswippe mit einem beleuchtbaren Schriftfeld versehen ist und wobei eine weitgehend gleichmäßige Hinterleuchtung des Schriftfelds gegeben ist.The invention has for its object to provide an electrical push button switch, the rocker is provided with an illuminated text field and with a largely uniform backlighting of the text field.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Tastschalter mit den im Anspruch 1 angegebenen
Merkmalen gelöst. This object is achieved by a push button switch with the specified in
Bei diesem Taster wird mittels eines Lichtleiterkeils erreicht, daß trotz nahezu punktförmiger Lichteinleitung durch eine lichtemittierende Diode LED eine weitgehend gleichmäßige Hinterleuchtung des gesamten Schriftfelds gegeben ist.This button is achieved by means of a fiber optic wedge, that despite almost punctiform light introduction by a light-emitting diode LED a largely uniform backlighting of the entire text field is given.
Als vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung wird vorgeschlagen, zusätzlich eine Statusanzeige mittels einer weiteren lichtemittierenden Diode LED zu schaffen, deren Licht mittels eines Lichtleiterelements zur Wippenoberfläche geführt wird, und außerdem einen Trennsteg an der Wippenunterseite vorzusehen, mit dem eine gegenseitige Beeinflussung der Beleuchtungseinrichtungen vermieden wird.A status display is also proposed as an advantageous embodiment to create by means of a further light-emitting diode LED, the light of which means a light guide element is guided to the rocker surface, and also one Separator to be provided on the underside of the rocker, with which a mutual influence the lighting equipment is avoided.
Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile des Tasters ergeben sich aus der nachstehenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels anhand der Zeichnungsfiguren.Further details and advantages of the button result from the following Description of an embodiment with reference to the drawing figures.

- a section through a button with lighting devices for lettering field lighting and status display.
Fig. 1 zeigt eine Tasteranordnung 26 mit drei elektrischen Tastschaltern 10, wobei
von den Tastern 10 im wesentlichen ihre jeweiligen Betätigungswippen 3 sichtbar
sind. Die Wippen 3 sind in einem Sockel 8 durch Rastmittel 24, 25 und Federmittel
13 in einer Ruhestellung gehalten. Im Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Sockel 8 gemeinsamer
Sockel für alle Taster 10 der Anordnung 26. Jeder Taster 10 hat ein Schriftfeld
11 und eine Statusanzeige 19. Mit Bezugszeichen 27 ist eine infrarotlichtdurchlässige
frontseitige Abdeckung des Sockels 8 bezeichnet, die jedoch im Zusammenhang
mit der Erfindung nicht von Bedeutung ist. Durch die Abdeckung 27 ragt ein
Betätigungsknopf 20 eines Druckfolgeschalters oder Tasters, mit dem sich die Beleuchtungsmittel,
also die LED's 4 schalten lassen.Fig. 1 shows a
Die Schriftfelder 11 sind jeweils durch einen Einschnitt oder Schacht 21 der Wippen
3 gebildet, der jeweils durch eine transparente Abdeckung 1 abdeckbar ist. Die
streifenförmigen Abdeckungen 1 sind jeweils an ihren Enden mit Rastelementen 17,
18 versehen. In die Einschnitte 21 ist jeweils ein Lichtleiterkeil 2 einlegbar.The
In Fig. 1 sind unterschiedliche Montageschritte zur Fertigstellung der Beleuchtungseinrichtung
gezeigt. In den mittleren der drei Taster 10 ist ein Lichtleiterkeil 2
eingelegt. Die Abdeckung 1 ist beim mittleren Taster 10 mit ihrem ersten Rastelement
17 in die Wippe 3 eingehängt. Außerdem ist eine beschriftbare transparente
Einlage 12, z.B. eine transluzente Folie dargestellt, die unter der Abdeckung 1 angeordnet
ist. Die Abdeckung 1 wird durch Herunterklappen in der angegebenen
Pfeilrichtung geschlossen, wobei sie an ihrem zweiten Ende mittels des zweiten
Rastelements 18 in der Wippe 3 einrastet. Die Abdeckungen 1 können als Lupe
ausgebildet sein zur Verbeserung der Lesbarkeit einer auf der Einlage 12 befindlichen
Schrift.In Fig. 1 are different assembly steps for completing the lighting device
shown. In the middle of the three
Mit Bezugszeichen 22, 23 sind reflektierende Beschichtungen des Lichtleiterkeils 2
bezeichnet, die unter Aussparung der Lichtein- und -austrittsflächen 14, 16 aufgebracht
werden können. Durch eine solche Maßnahme läßt sich die Helligkeit an der
Lichtaustrittsfläche 16 erhöhen.With
Fig. 2 zeigt einen Schnitt durch den Tastschalter 10 an einer Stelle, an der sich das
Beschriftungsfeld 11 der Wippe 3 befindet.Fig. 2 shows a section through the
Der Sockel 8 und die Wippe 3 sind Kunststoffteile. Die Wippe 3 ist mit Hilfe von
Rastmitteln 24, 25 in den Sockel eingehängt und wird durch Federkraft, die in zwei
Kontaktelementen 13, insbesondere Mikroschaltern erzeugt wird, in der Ruhelage
gehalten. Im Sockel 8 ist eine Leiterplatte 9 angeordnet, auf der die Kontaktelemente
13, sowie die erste LED 4 zur Schriftfeldbeleuchtung und eine zweite LED 5 zur
Statusanzeige, also zur Anzeige eines Schaltzustands angeordnet sind. Die Kontaktelemente
13 werden über Betätigungsnocken 30 an der Wippe 3 betätigt.The
Die erste LED 4 speist Licht in die Lichteintrittsfläche 14 des Lichtleiterkeils 2 ein,
das an der Austrittsfläche 16 austritt und die transparente Einlage 12 hinterleuchtet.
Die zweite LED 5 speist Licht in ein Lichtleiterelement 6 ein, das an der Oberfläche
der Wippe 3 als Statusanzeige 19 austritt. Ein Trennsteg 7 an der Unterseite der
Wippe 3 verhindert einen Lichtübertritt von der Schriftfeldbeleuchtung zur Statusanzeige.
Es ist ersichtlich, daß die Lichtleiter 2, 6 von den LED's 4, 5 jeweils etwas beabstandet
sind, wodurch eine Wippenbewegung ermöglicht ist.The first LED 4 feeds light into the
