Abstract
Description
Die Endung betrifft einen näherungssensitiven Drehschalter gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The ending concerns a proximity sensitive Rotary switch according to the generic term of claim 1.
Näherungssensitive
Schalter sind im Stand der Technik bekannt. So beschreiben die
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es folglich, einen näherungssensitiven Drehschalter mit geringerem Bau- und Fertigungsaufwand bereitzustellen.Object of the present invention it is consequently a proximity sensitive To provide rotary switches with less construction and manufacturing costs.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch einen näherungssensitiven Drehschalter nach Anspruch 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This task is solved by a proximity sensitive Rotary switch according to claim 1. Advantageous refinements are Subject of the subclaims.
Unter einem Drehschalter wird im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Schalter verstanden, der quasi endlos betätigbar ist. Der Schalter selber weist keine Endanschläge auf; diese Grenzen werden festgelegt durch das Gerät, das mit diesem bedient wird. Der erfindungsgemäße näherungssensitive Drehschalter besteht aus einzelnen Sensorflächen. Diese Sensorflächen sind auf einem Substrat räumlich zueinander angeordnet und über eine Auswerteelektronik miteinander verschaltet. Die Sensorflächen sind in einer endlosen Reihe angeordnet. Unter dem Begriff „endlose Reihe" wird eine Anordnung verstanden, die im Gegensatz zu einer Geraden keinen Anfangs- und Endpunkt aufweist. Dies bedeutet, dass keine der Sensorflächen als Anfangs- oder Endsensorfläche bezeichnet werden kann. Die einzelnen Sensorflächen sind untereinander gleichwertig. Als Beispiele für eine derartige endlose Reihe seien ein Kreis und ein Oval aufgeführt. Die Schaltfunktion kommt zustande durch die Berührungsabfolge. Eine Änderung des eingestellten Wertes eines Gerätes kommt folglich dann zustande, wenn zwei nebeneinander befindliche Sensorflächen nacheinander berührt werden. Somit bestimmt eine Änderung der Berührungsposition auf dem Drehschalter die Schaltfunktion.Under a rotary switch Understood a switch in connection with the present invention, which can be operated almost endlessly is. The switch itself has no end stops; these limits will be determined by the device, that is operated with this. The proximity switch according to the invention consists of individual sensor areas. These sensor areas are spatial on a substrate arranged to each other and over a Evaluation electronics interconnected. The sensor areas are arranged in an endless row. Under the term "endless Row "becomes a Understood an arrangement that, unlike a straight line, does not and endpoint. This means that none of the sensor areas are considered Start or end sensor area can be designated. The individual sensor surfaces are equivalent to one another. As examples of such an endless series are a circle and an oval. The Switching function comes about through the touch sequence. A change the set value of a device is then achieved when two adjacent sensor surfaces are touched one after the other. So a change determines the touch position the switching function on the rotary switch.
In der praktischen Anwendung streicht der Nutzer, insbesondere mit seinem Finger über die endlose Reihe der Sensorflächen, wodurch der Schaltvorgang bewirkt wird. Ein derartiger näherungssensitiver Drehschalter ist besonders in Anwendungsgebieten nützlich, in denen mit Hilfe eines Schalters größere Einstellungsbereiche bedient werden sollen. Beispielhaft seien Radio- oder Fernsehgeräte genannt. Zum Einstellen der Frequenz eines Senders müssen sehr weite Frequenzbereiche überstrichen werden. Schalter, die mit jeder Berührung lediglich von einem Frequenzbereich zum Nächsten schreiten, müssen sehr oft hintereinander bedient werden, ehe die gewünschte Frequenz des Senders erreicht ist. Dies ist für den Nutzer relativ nervend. Mit Hilfe des erfindungsgemäßen näherungssensitiven Drehschalters kann mit einer einzigen fortwährenden Betätigung, beispielsweise der Kreisbewegung über die im einen Kreis angeordneten Sensorflächen der gewünschte Frequenzbereich erreicht werden. Ein weiteres Anwendungsgebiet sind Geräte, bei denen eine Zeitfunktion einzustellen ist, beispielsweise bei Timern. Soll beispielsweise ausgehend von null ein Zeitablauf von mehreren Stunden und Minuten eingestellt werden, so kann mit Hilfe des erfindungsgemäßen Drehschalters durch dessen fortwährende Betätigung ein Einstellvorgang besonders rasch durchgeführt werden. Durch die vorgeschlagene Ausbildung des Drehschalters entfallen zudem die üblichen Drehknöpfe, die von der Oberfläche eines Gerätes hervorstehen und sehr leicht mechanischen Beschädigungen ausgesetzt sind sowie auch deren aufwändige Fertigung und Montage.In practical use it cuts out the user, especially with his finger over the endless row of sensor surfaces, whereby the switching process is effected. Such a proximity sensitive rotary switch is particularly useful in application areas where using switch has larger setting ranges should be operated. Examples include radio or television sets. To set the frequency of a transmitter, very wide frequency ranges must be swept become. Switches with only one frequency range with each touch move to the next one, have to are operated very often in succession before the desired frequency of the transmitter has been reached. This is relatively annoying for the user. With the aid of the proximity sensitive rotary switch according to the invention can be done with a single continuous operation, for example the circular movement over the arranged in a circle sensor surfaces the desired one Frequency range can be reached. Another area of application are Equipment, where a time function has to be set, for example timers. For example, should a time lapse of several starting from zero Hours and minutes can be set using the rotary switch according to the invention through its ongoing activity Adjustment process can be carried out particularly quickly. Through the proposed training the rotary switch also eliminates the usual knobs that from the surface of a device protrude and are very easily exposed to mechanical damage as well also their elaborate Manufacturing and assembling.
Bevorzugt ist vorgesehen, dass es sich bei dem näherungssensitiven Drehschalter um einen dynamischen handelt. Dies bedeutet, dass die durch die Schaltfunktion bewirkte Änderung, beispielsweise die Veränderung der Frequenz, der Zeit oder einer Temperatureinstellung, dynamisch erfolgt, indem zumindest zwei Schaltstufen definiert sind. Die Geschwindigkeit der Betätigung des Schalters bestimmt dabei, welche Schaltstufe durchgeführt wird. Ein Beispiel für eine dreistufige Schaltung sei anhand des Beispiels einer Zeitschaltuhr erläutert. Bei einer Zeitschaltuhr sind Stunden, Minuten und Sekunden einzustellen. Es sind nun drei Schaltstufen vorgesehen, in Abhängigkeit von der Geschwindigkeit mit der der Drehschalter betätigt wird, d. h. in Abhängigkeit von der Geschwindigkeit mit der der Anwender seinen Finger über den Drehschalter führt. Geschieht dieses mit einer vergleichsweise hohen Geschwindigkeit, so ändert sich bei der Zeitanzeige die Stundenanzeige. Bei der nächstlangsameren Stufe werden Minuten hochgezählt und bei der geringsten Geschwindigkeit wird die Sekundenanzeige geändert. Will ein Anwender folglich drei Stunden, zwanzig Minuten und fünf Sekunden einstellen, so kann er dies tun, indem er zunächst vergleichsweise schnell über den Drehschalter streicht, wodurch die Stunden unmittelbar geändert werden und dann vergleichsweise langsamer darüberstreicht, wodurch eine Änderung der Stunden nun nicht mehr unmittelbar erfolgt, sondern unmittelbar lediglich die Minutenanzeige geändert wird. Bei einer noch langsameren Positionsänderung werden schließlich die einzelnen Sekunden einstellbar. Technisch ist dies dahingehend realisiert, dass die Geschwindigkeit der Berührungsabfolge der einzelnen Sensorflächen hintereinander bestimmt wird. Es wird folglich die Positionsänderung über die Zeit bestimmt. Mit Hilfe der Auswerteelektronik werden diesen Werten einzelne Schaltstufen zugeordnet. Ein dynamischer näherungssensitiver Drehschalter bringt zusätzliche Vorteile mit sich und erweist sich vor allem bei solchen Geräten, in denen große Bereiche überstrichen werden müssen als vorteilhaft. Anwendungsbeispiele sind das Einstellen von Temperatur-, Druck- und Frequenzwerten.It is preferably provided that the proximity-sensitive rotary switch is a dynamic one. This means that the change caused by the switching function, for example the change in frequency, time or a temperature setting, takes place dynamically by defining at least two switching stages. The speed of actuation of the switch determines which switching stage is carried out. An example of a three-stage circuit is explained using the example of a timer. With a timer, hours, minutes and seconds must be set. There are now three switching stages, depending on the speed at which the rotary switch is actuated, ie depending on the speed at which the user moves his finger over the rotary switch. This happens at a comparatively high speed, the hour display changes in the time display. At the next slower level, minutes are counted up and at the lowest speed the seconds are changed. If a user wants to set three hours, twenty minutes and five seconds, he can do this by first swiping the rotary switch relatively quickly, which means that the hours are changed immediately and then moving over it more slowly, which means that changing the hours is no longer possible immediately, but only the minute display is changed immediately. If the position change is even slower, the individual seconds are finally adjustable. Technically, this is realized in that the speed of the touch sequence of the individual sensor surfaces is determined one after the other. The change in position over time is consequently determined. Using the evaluation electronics, individual switching stages are assigned to these values. A dynamic proximity-sensitive rotary switch has additional advantages and has proven to be particularly advantageous for devices in which large areas have to be covered. Application examples are the setting of temperature, pressure and frequency values.
Bei den Sensorflächen kann es sich um leitfähige Elemente, insbesondere Kupferelemente handeln, die in Art einer gedruckten Schaltung auf der Rückseite des Substrates aufgebracht sind. Diese können beispielsweise eine Kreisform aufweisen. Weiterhin kann jede Sensorfläche noch in einzelne Segmente unterteilt werden. Dies bringt beispielsweise Vorteile im Bezug auf die Herstellung mit sich und weiterhin sind sehr große Elemente vergleichsweise anfällig für Beschädigungen und Störstellen.The sensor surfaces can be conductive elements, especially copper elements act in the manner of a printed Circuit on the back of the substrate are applied. These can be a circular shape, for example exhibit. Furthermore, each sensor surface can still be divided into individual segments be divided. This brings advantages in relation to, for example on manufacturing with itself and continue to be very large elements comparatively vulnerable for damage and imperfections.
Weiterhin bringt eine Flächenaufteilung bei entsprechender Vorschaltung und Auswertung eine Feinjustierung mit sich. Es kann dann nicht nur die Abfolge der Abfolge des Berührens benachbarter Sensorflächen bestimmt werden, sondern zusätzlich die Abfolge des Berührens einzelner Segmente einer Sensorfläche.Furthermore, an area division brings with appropriate upstream connection and evaluation, a fine adjustment with himself. It is then not only possible to determine the sequence of the sequence of touching adjacent sensor surfaces be, but also the Sequence of touching individual segments of a sensor surface.
Der näherungssensitive Drehschalter ist vorzugsweise als ein Touchpad realisiert, das auf vergleichsweise festen Materialien, insbesondere Glas realisiert ist. Dadurch ist der näherungssensitive Drehschalter auch in Bereichen einsetzbar, bei denen mechanische Belastungen auftreten oder bei denen Wasser oder sonstige Flüssigkeiten in die Geräte eindringen können oder in Bereichen, in denen gewisse Anforderungen an Sauberkeit bzw. Sterilität gestellt wird. Als Beispiele derartiger Anwendungen seien medizinische Anwendungen, Labortechnik und Küchen genannt. Bevorzugt ist weiter vorgesehen, dass als Substrat für die Anordnung der Sensorflächen Glas verwendet wird. Die Sensorflächen werden folglich unmittelbar auf der dem Nutzer abgewandten Seite der Glasfläche, d. h. auf deren Rückseite angeordnet. Eine zusätzliche Leiterplatte, die unter der Glasplatte angeordnet ist, entfällt somit vorzugsweise. Bei den Sensorflächen kann es sich sowohl um kapazitive als auch um induktive Elemente handeln. Ferner kann es sich hierbei ebenfalls um Widerstände handeln.The proximity sensitive rotary switch is preferably implemented as a touchpad that is comparatively solid materials, especially glass is realized. This is the proximity sensitive rotary switch Can also be used in areas where mechanical loads occur or where water or other liquids penetrate the devices can or in areas where certain cleanliness requirements or sterility becomes. Examples of such applications are medical applications, Laboratory technology and kitchens called. It is preferably further provided that as the substrate for the arrangement of the sensor surfaces Glass is used. The sensor surfaces are consequently immediate on the side of the glass surface facing away from the user, d. H. on the back arranged. An additional Printed circuit board, which is arranged under the glass plate, is therefore omitted preferably. With the sensor areas can be both capacitive and inductive elements. Furthermore, these can also be resistors.
