Problems solved by technology

The mechanical connection of the operator control element to the contact element or the switching element has the disadvantage here that openings have to be provided in the switching element for the mechanical movement of the element, with the result that dirt and moisture can enter the switching element
However, the switching device has the disadvantage that the operator control elements are also encapsulated, which has a very negative effect on the visual appearance and thus on the design possibilities
If the operator control elements are located outside the encapsulation, special sealing is required, which often limits the useful life of the switching device, affects the ease of movement of the switching device, and adversely affects switching feel
[0008] In addition, mechanical connections have the disadvantage that over time they corrode due to material friction and thus reduce the switching sensation and quality impression

Embodiment Construction

[0043] The same or similar components are denoted by the same reference numerals in the figures and description.

[0044] Figures 1a, 1b and 1c show a conversion device according to the invention from various perspectives. The conversion device comprises a cylindrical outer shell 2 and a cylindrical inner shell 4 . The inner housing 4 is arranged inside the outer housing 2 on the same cylinder axis. The inner housing 4 can here also consist only of the side surfaces of a cylinder, omitting the bottom side, as shown in FIG. 1c. The two housings can be made of plastic or some other material, preferably insulating material.

[0045] In addition, the switching means comprises an operator control element 10 having a rotational axis or shaft 12 on which a permanent magnet 14 is arranged.

[0046] A first contact path 40 and a second contact path 30 are arranged along a circular arc on the side surface of the inner housing 4 . The first contact path 40 here comprises a plurality ...

Abstract

Disclosed is a switch for manually switching electric contacts, comprising a control element (10) that can be displaced by means of a movement, and a contact element (20; 20a, 20b) which can be moved along a first contact path (40) by means of the movement of the control element (10). The control element (10) and the contact element (20; 20a, 20b) mutually interact in a contactless and direct manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to switching devices for electrical contacts. The invention relates in particular to switching means for manually switching electrical contacts. Background technique [0002] In modern equipment, the operation of operator control elements is becoming more and more important. Haptics and acoustics are of central importance here. Especially for the operation of vehicles, and equally for many other devices with electrical functions, the ease of operation of switching devices and controllers is not only relevant for safety, but also an important criterion for the quality and impression of quality of the whole device. It is not only in motor vehicles that the quality impression is a decisive factor in sales. [0003] Operator control elements such as switching devices or controllers should be easy to switch, but at the same time during the switching process they should provide the user with the feeling that the switching device and ...
