Problems solved by technology

In addition, the ignition switch requires a relatively complicated mechanism, and the ignition switch key must be turned in the ignition switch
And because a rotary motion is required, an ignition switch contact system in which the ignition key must be turned is not reliable in some cases
In addition, an ignition switch, in which the ignition key must be turned, requires a relatively large installation space, which means less flexibility when designing the interior

Embodiment Construction

[0018] In FIG. 1 , a mobile machine 1 or a motor vehicle is shown schematically in its ignition 2 in which the ignition key 3 is inserted in position A. 1 . The ignition switch 2 is on the dashboard 4 so that it is closed flush with the dashboard. The controller 5 corresponds to the ignition switch 2, and the controller monitors which position of the ignition switch key 3 is inserted into the guide and retention system 10 of the ignition switch 2 (A 1 to A 4 ). The controller 5 of FIG. 1 controls the power supply of electrical equipment such as a radio 6 or an air conditioner 11, starts or closes an anti-theft device 7 and a steering wheel lock 8, and starts or stops a motor 9 of a mobile machine.

[0019] The states and state transitions of the controller 5 are shown in FIG. 2 . When the ignition switch key 3 is inserted into the position A of the ignition switch 2 1 , the controller 5 will start from the initial state Z 0 Transition to state Z 1 (S-Contact connection ...

Abstract

An engine ( 9 ) of a vehicle ( 1 ) is started by first inserting an ignition key ( 3 ) into an ignition lock ( 2 ) of the vehicle ( 1 ). The vehicle ( 1 ) can be started by merely pressing the inserted ignition key, whereby said ignition key ( 3 ) is further inserted into the ignition lock ( 2 ) and takes in a nearly flush position with a dashboard ( 4 ) within which the ignition lock is disposed when the motor runs such that the ignition key ( 3 ) does not constitute a potential hazard in the event of an accident. The engine ( 9 ) is stopped by once again pressing the ignition key ( 3 ). Once the engine ( 9 ) has been stopped, the ignition key ( 3 ) is brought into a position in which the same can be simply removed from the ignition lock ( 2 ) by the driver.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for operating a mobile machine and its associated device with a controller, which device is designed according to said method, such as it can be used in particular for engine starting of a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Inserting the ignition key into the key receiver (commonly called the ignition switch) is the most common method used today to start the motors of moving machinery. Turning the inserted ignition key in the key receiver to the first position typically unlocks the steering wheel lock, deactivates any immobilizers that may be present, and powers electrical equipment (eg radio, air conditioner) from the power supply of the mobile machine. Rotating the inserted key to the second position in the key receiver typically actuates the starter of the mobile machine, thereby activating the motor of the mobile machine. To stop a running motor, the ignition key is usually turned back past the first pos...
