Description

452 374 själva urfunktionerna t ex alarm- och väcktider samt in- och urkopp- lingstider för vissa apparater. Även av uret helt oberoende kopplinge- åtgärder kan eventuellt också utföras. 452 374 the actual clock functions, eg alarm and wake-up times as well as switch-on and switch-off times for certain devices. Completely independent switching measures can also be performed by the watch.

På kapseln 1 är anordnade avståndsstift 5 som t ex genom pâ- trädda spiralfjädrar håller manöverplattan 2 med dess krage tryckt mot kapselns krage. Enligt ritningen kan avståndsstiften också åt- minstone delvis vara fästa vid manöverplattan.Spacer pins 5 are arranged on the canister 1 which, for example through threaded coil springs, hold the control plate 2 with its collar pressed against the collar of the canister. According to the drawing, the spacer pins can also be at least partially attached to the control plate.

Vid tryck på manöverplattan 2, företrädesvis på en i fig 2 tydligt synlig manöversvacka 6, stjälpes manöverplattan mot verkan av sin fjädrande lagring så att det under vederbörande manöversvacka anordnade manöverstiftet 3 påverkar den samordnade tryckströmställar- en 4.When pressed on the control plate 2, preferably on a control compartment 6 clearly visible in Fig. 2, the control plate is overturned against the action of its resilient bearing so that the control pin 3 arranged under the relevant control switch affects the coordinated pressure switch 4.

En särskild fördel med anordningen enligt uppfinningen är att manöverstiften 3 och avståndsstiften 5 kan så samordnas med varandra att endast en tryckkontakt kan påverkas enär avståndsstiften hindrar samtidig stjälpning i två_riktningar.A particular advantage of the device according to the invention is that the operating pins 3 and the spacer pins 5 can be coordinated with each other in such a way that only one pressure contact can be affected since the spacer pins prevent simultaneous tilting in two directions.

I det visade exemplet är fyra manöverstift 3 anordnade på platserna 7, 8, 9 och 10 medan fyra avståndsstift 5 är anordnade på platserna 11, 12, 13 teh 14. Platserna 7, 8, 9 och 10 bildar hörnan i en kvadrat medan platserna 11, 12, 13 och 14 är anordnade på sidorna av den så bildade kvadraten. Detta medför att om man t ex trycker på iden på ritningen övre manöversvackan 6 som är anordnad vid platsen 8, så kan manöverplattan 2 tryckas ner och det vid platsen 8 anordnade manöverstiftet påverkar tryckkontakten enär manöverplattan 2 kan stjälpa över de vid platserna 13 och 14 anordnade avstàndsstiften 5.In the example shown, four control pins 3 are arranged at the places 7, 8, 9 and 10 while four spacer pins 5 are arranged at the places 11, 12, 13 teh 14. The places 7, 8, 9 and 10 form the corner in a square while the places 11 , 12, 13 and 14 are arranged on the sides of the square thus formed. This means that if, for example, one presses on the idea in the drawing the upper control sump 6 which is arranged at the position 8, the control plate 2 can be pressed down and the control pin arranged at the position 8 affects the pressure contact since the control plate 2 can tip over the positions arranged at positions 13 and 14. distance pins 5.

Påverkas däremot de vid platserna 7 och 8 anbringade manöver- svackorna 6 samtidigt så stöter manöverplattans 2 tipprörelse omedel- bart på motstånd från det vid platsen 14 anbringade avståndsstiftet 5 som hindrar en samtidig stjälpning i båda riktningarna. Man har allt- så sörjt för att även vid vårdslös manövrering endast en kopplings- funktion kan omedelbart påverkas.If, on the other hand, the actuating slats 6 arranged at positions 7 and 8 are affected at the same time, the tilting movement of the control plate 2 immediately encounters resistance from the spacer pin 5 arranged at position 14 which prevents a simultaneous tilting in both directions. It has thus been ensured that even with careless maneuvering, only one clutch function can be immediately affected.

Särskilt vid insättning av ett sådant ur i ett motorfordon, t ex genom att urkapseln 1 inbyggs med ansatsen 15 liggande i instru- mentbrädet, är fördelarna med uppfinningen påfallande. Manövrering med hjälp av ett spetsigt verktyg skulle vara mycket tidsödande medan manövrering genom den hela kapseln täckande manöverplattan 2 är för- hållandevis lätt att utföra. Byggstorleken kan motsvara ungefär de idag gängse runda instrumenten som vanligen insättes i instrument-Particularly when inserting such a watch in a motor vehicle, for example by incorporating the watch capsule 1 with the shoulder 15 lying in the dashboard, the advantages of the invention are striking. Operation by means of a pointed tool would be very time-consuming, while operation through the entire control plate 2 covering the capsule is relatively easy to perform. The build size can correspond approximately to the currently common round instruments that are usually used in

Claims

452 374 3 boards. With a relatively space-saving construction method, it is still possible to achieve safe maneuvering without special accuracy. The control plate 2 is preferably made of transparent material, eg plexiglass, at least in its middle part, so that instructions can be applied behind the control plate, for example the numbers of the watch and some switching functions. Preferably, information is provided about the functions operated with the pressure switches, ie, for example, the vehicle heating, which can be regulated either independently of the clock or preferably controlled or programmed with the aid of the training according to the invention. Behind the relatively small operating plate, despite the relatively small construction size of the entire device, numerical instructions for the current time, for the programmed switch-on time and for the duration of the switch-on can be arranged. Preferably, this is one and the same numerical instruction which, after operating the program buttons, shows what is currently being programmed. Furthermore, light signals, for example in the form of small signal lamps or LEDs, can be arranged which show, for example, that the vehicle's parking heating or rear window heating or the like works. A general lighting to make it easier to see the control panel or control switches can also be provided. The clock trained according to the invention can not only be used for the described purpose but also for various other tasks, eg activation of burglar alarm systems, central locking devices, etc. The shape of the control plate is adaptable to different purposes. The coordination of the pin pins and the distance pins with each other can also be adapted in different ways, for example by arranging in a square as above, but also depending on the number of pressure contacts in a triangle, hexagon, etc. Patent claims:
