Definitions
- the invention relates to an actuating unit of a movable part of a motor vehicle, in particular a tailgate, with an actuating part which is attached to a housing part, at least two conductor elements which are arranged on the housing part, an elastically deformable contact element which cooperates with the conductor elements and one on the actuating part arranged plunger for deformation of the contact element.
- an actuating unit with a movable actuating part is disclosed, which is fixed to a non-movable housing part.
- a contact element arranged within the actuating unit the Part of an electric switch is contacted or deformed, whereby the conductor elements are short-circuited via the contact of the deformed contact element with the conductor elements.
- a signal can be generated, which leaves the actuating unit, for example, to activate an electric drive, which is provided for example on a closing device of the tailgate.
- a potting compound To protect the electrical components from moisture and thus from corrosion, they are usually enclosed with a potting compound.
- vent holes are usually arranged on the housing part and connect the outer region of the actuating unit with the interior of the actuating unit, which is delimited by the actuating part and the housing part in order to allow a volume displaced by the actuating part to escape.

- the actuating member moves in a manual operation axisymmetric to the interior of the actuator so that a pressure equalization of the interior is not required. Since the actuating part is mounted axially symmetrically to the interior about the axis pivotally, air must be displaced from the interior of the operating unit in any position of the operating part. For this reason, the arrangement is more complicated Bleed holes not necessary.
- the operating part and the housing part can be completely encapsulated from the environment, in particular shielded, whereby, for example, dirt or moisture can not penetrate into the interior.
- the electronics in the interior of the actuator is protected, whereby the life of the device according to the invention and its functional properties can be significantly increased. Consequently, it can be dispensed in the present invention, the conductor elements and / or the elastically deformable contact element consuming enclose with sealing compound, resin or the like watertight, since the actuator unit according to the invention, in particular its interior is completely encapsulated from the environment.
- a retaining element is fastened to the housing part in such a way that at the same time the contact element is reliably held in its position.
- the contact element can be reliably held in its position on the housing part via a structurally less expensive retaining element. It is also conceivable that without holding element, the contact element is attached directly to the housing part.
- the conductor elements advantageously extend through the wall of the housing part and are connected to an electrical connector.

- the actuating part and the housing part are integrally connected to one another at their peripheral edge regions. It is conceivable that the edge regions of the actuating part and the housing part are laser welded together. Likewise, other cohesive connections, such as the adhesive connection, are conceivable. Expediently, the axis about which the actuating part is axially symmetrical to the interior, extends within the interior. For this purpose, for example, corresponding bearings may be provided in the interior of the actuator, where the actuating member moves upon manual activation and thus triggers a corresponding signal via the activation of the contact element.

This prevents that in the overall assembly of the operating unit, the conductor element unintentionally released by any vibrations on the actuator unit from the channel.
- the conductor element has at least one projection-like stop means that prevents unintentional pulling out of the conductor element from the interior. It is conceivable that over an appropriate tensile force at the free end of the conductor element within the sleeve member, the conductor element can be unintentionally pulled out of the actuator unit.

It is also conceivable in one embodiment that the contact element is designed with at least one fastening portion, each having an opening through which protrudes the fixing element. In this embodiment, the contact element is connected directly to the contoured body of the housing part, without a retaining element is necessary. As a result, a further simplification of the overall construction of the actuating unit can be achieved.
