Abstract
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Drehknebel, insbesondere versenkbaren Drehknebel für Haushaltsgeräte, mit einem Gehäuse (4, 12), das erste lichtdurchlässige Abschnitte (4) aufweist, und einem im Gehäuse (4, 12) angeordneten Reflektor (34), der Licht einer raumfesten Lichtquelle (LED) von innen her auf die ersten lichtdurchlässigen Abschnitte (4) des Gehäuses (4, 12) reflektiert.The invention relates to a rotary toggle, in particular a retractable rotary toggle for household appliances, comprising a housing (4, 12) which has first translucent sections (4) and a reflector (34) arranged in the housing (4, 12) and which emits light from a stationary light source (LED) reflected from the inside onto the first translucent sections (4) of the housing (4, 12).
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Drehknebel, insbesondere versenkbaren Drehknebel für Haushaltsgeräte.The invention relates to a rotary knob, especially retractable rotary knob for household appliances.
Versenkbare Drehknebel sind in einer Aufnahme drehbar und axialverschieblich aufgenommen. Sie lassen sich in einer ersten Lage, in der sich ihre nutzerzugewandten Deckflächen vor einer Bedienoberfläche befinden, um eine Achse drehen, um Temperaturen, Leistungen oder andere Parameter einzustellen, und anschließend längs dieser Achse entgegen einer Federkraft rastend in eine zweite Lage schieben, in der ihre Deckflächen zumindest im wesentlichen mit der Bedienoberfläche fluchten, um die Einstellungen zu sichern und/oder allgemein die Sicherheit zu erhöhen und/oder einfach eine ansehnliche Front zu schaffen. Aus dieser zweiten Lage gelangt man wieder in die erste Lage, wenn man den versenkten Drehknebel in Verschieberichtung antippt und hierdurch die federbelastete Rastung wieder aufhebt.Retractable rotary knobs are in one Mount rotatable and axially displaceable. You leave in a first position in which their user-facing deck surfaces are facing a user interface located around an axis, around temperatures, powers or other parameters, and then along this axis against one Push the spring force into a second position, in which its cover surfaces at least essentially aligned with the user interface to the settings to secure and / or to increase security in general and / or just to create a handsome front. From this second position you get back to the first position when you turn the countersunk rotary knob taps in the direction of displacement and thereby the spring-loaded detent picks up again.
Aus der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine einfache und zuverlässige Beleuchtung des Drehknebels zu schaffen.The invention has for its object a simple and reliable To create lighting for the rotary knob.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausbildungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.According to the invention, this object is achieved by solved the features of claim 1. Advantageous training result from the subclaims.
Der Drehknebel, insbesondere versenkbare Drehknebel für Haushaltsgeräte, besitzt ein Gehäuse, das erste lichtdurchlässige Abschnitte aufweist, und einen im Gehäuse angeordneten Reflektor, der Licht einer raumfesten Lichtquelle von innen her auf die ersten lichtdurchlässigen Abschnitte des Gehäuses reflektiert. Auf diese Weise ist die zumindest abschnittsweise Beleuchtung des Drehknebels auf einfache und zuverlässige Weise auch ohne bewegliche Teile gesichert.The rotary toggle, in particular retractable rotary toggle for household appliances a housing, the first translucent Has sections, and a reflector arranged in the housing, the light of a fixed light source from the inside at first translucent Sections of the case reflected. In this way the lighting is at least in sections of the rotary toggle in a simple and reliable way even without moving parts secured.
Die ersten lichtdurchlässigen Abschnitte des Gehäuses sind vorzugsweise radial angeordnet und bilden insbesondere eine ringförmige koaxiale Mantelfläche und/oder einen oder mehrere koaxial verteilte Anzeigemarken. Sie können mit zweiten lichtdurchlässigen Abschnitten des Gehäuses optisch, insbesondere lichtleitend, in Verbindung stehen.The first translucent sections of the housing are preferably arranged radially and in particular form a annular coaxial lateral surface and / or one or more coaxially distributed display marks. she can with second translucent Sections of the case optically, especially light-guiding, in connection.
Die zweiten lichtdurchlässigen Abschnitte des Gehäuses sind vorzugsweise radial und/oder axial angeordnet und bilden insbesondere eine ringförmige koaxiale Mantelfläche und/oder eine nutzerzugewandte Deckfläche des Gehäuses und/oder einen oder mehrere koaxial verteilte Anzeigemarken, die strichförmig und/oder punktförmig ausgebildet sein können.The second translucent sections of the housing are preferably arranged radially and / or axially and in particular form an annular coaxial lateral surface and / or a user-facing top surface of the housing and / or one or more coaxially distributed display marks, which are formed in line and / or point form can.
Der Reflektor ist vorzugsweise koaxial angeordnet, insbesondere geneigt zur Dreh- und Verschiebeachse des Drehknebels, vorzugsweise um 45 Grad. Er ist insbesondere als ein sich vom Nutzer weg verjüngender Hohlkegelstumpf ausgebildet. Er kann am Gehäuse ausgebildet oder lösbar, insbesondere rastbar, mit diesem verbunden sein. Er besteht insbesondere aus reflektierendem Material wie Edelstahl oder Aluminium oder aus reflektierend beschichtetem Material, beispielsweise reflektierend beschichtetem Kunststoff.The reflector is preferably coaxial arranged, in particular inclined to the axis of rotation and displacement of the Rotary knob, preferably 45 degrees. He is particularly as a tapering away from the user Hollow truncated cone formed. It can be formed on the housing or detachable, in particular restable, be connected to it. It consists in particular of reflective material such as stainless steel or aluminum or made of reflective coated material, for example reflectively coated Plastic.
Die Lichtquelle ist vorzugsweise in einer den Drehknebel verschiebbar und/oder drehbar aufnehmenden Aufnahme angeordnet, insbesondere koaxial. Sie besteht vorzugsweise aus koaxial verteilten Lichtemitterdioden. Entsprechend sind die ersten lichtdurchlässigen Abschnitte des Gehäuses im ausgefahrenen Zustand des Drehknebels wenigstens teilweise sichtbar, insbesondere radial und gegebenenfalls axial, während die zweiten lichtdurchlässigen Abschnitte des Gehäuses im ausgefahrenen und gegebenenfalls im eingefahrenen Zustand des Drehknebels wenigstens teilweise sichtbar sind, insbesondere radial und/oder axial.The light source is preferred in a slidably and / or rotatably receiving the rotary knob Recording arranged, especially coaxial. It preferably exists made of coaxially distributed light emitting diodes. They are accordingly first translucent Sections of the case at least partially visible when the rotary toggle is extended, in particular radially and optionally axially, while the second translucent sections of the housing in the extended and possibly in the retracted state of the Knobs are at least partially visible, especially radially and / or axially.
Schließlich ist eine Bedieneinheit, insbesondere für Haushaltsgeräte, mit wenigstens einem Drehknebel nach einem der vorbeschriebenen Lösungen vorgesehen.Finally, a control unit, especially for Domestic appliances, with at least one rotary knob according to one of the above solutions intended.
Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Die zugehörige schematische Zeichnung zeigt einen beleuchtbaren Versenkknebel in ausgefahrenem Zustand.The invention is illustrated below of an embodiment explained in more detail. The associated schematic drawing shows an illuminable retractable toggle in extended state.
