21 Rotary switch with ratcheting feature US10784068 2004-02-19 US20050184595A1 2005-08-25 William Foster; Sam Chung
A rotary switch (102) for an electronic device (100) includes a bump stop (104) that triggers a ratcheting feature when hit. The range of the rotary switch (102) is expanded via the ratcheting feature. The ratcheting feature inhibits scrolling through a device parameter in one rotation direction and enables scrolling through the device parameter in the opposite rotation direction. Depending on which direction the bump stop (104) is hit, the parameter is either incremented or decremented. The range of the rotary switch can also be expanded by modifying the step size of the rotary switch based on the range of a selected parameter (504). The coarse step is then narrowed with each change in rotation direction (510, 518) based on current, previous and useable switch positions (512, 514).
22 Multiple electrical switch arrangement US10445515 2003-05-27 US06794589B2 2004-09-21 Laurent Kubat; Sylvain Rochon; Bruno Michel
An electrical switch arrangement includes a validation switch and four selection switches, all operated by an actuator (31) that can be pivoted about two horizontal axes and can be depressed. A dome center tripper (28) that can be depressed to operate the validation switch has a periphery engaged with an outer contact (44). The actuator has four feet (88) spaced in different horizontal directions from a vertical axis (33). A selection tripper (72) lying on top of the center tripper, has four branches (78) that each lies under one of the actuator feet. When the actuator is tilted, one of the feet depresses one of the branches against one of four selection contacts (56) to close a corresponding selection switch. When a selection switch is closed, current flows from the corresponding selection contact (56) through the selection tripper (72) and center tripper (28), to the outer contact (44), so only a single tail (58) (to be soldered to a circuit board) is required for each selection switch.

A knob for an input device may include a knob housing being rotatable on an axis, a shaft coupled to and extending from the knob housing along the axis, a ratchet wheel axially coupled to the shaft and including a toothed perimeter, and a resistance wheel axially coupled to the shaft and including a smooth perimeter, where the ratchet wheel and the resistance wheel are rotatable on the axis in correspondence with a rotation of the knob housing. A biasing mechanism provides a force on its first end to cause a roller to engage with the toothed perimeter of the ratchet wheel such that a ratcheted rotation occurs when the knob housing is rotated, and further provides a force on its second end to cause the second end to engage with the smooth perimeter of the resistance wheel such that a friction is provided when the knob housing is rotated.

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multifunctional display type switch of which display area can be seen more clearly by keeping the distance between a dial knob and a display area unchanged and fixing close the distance between a peephole formed on a dial knob and the display area. <P>SOLUTION: At the time of pressing operation of the dial knob 3, the display part retaining member 7 is installed at the rear part of the dial knob 3 which is operated in pressing and rotating operation, which enables to move the display part 6 along with dial knob 3 to the pushing direction, and at the time of rotating operation of the dial knob 3, and by installing a means of rotating regulation which can prevent the display part retaining member 7 from rotating together with the dial knob 3, because relative distance between the dial knob 3 and the display part 6 can be retained constant, the display part 6 is displayed in a wide range from a peephole 3b of the dial knob 3, and vividness of display contents can be increased by approaching the dial knob 3 and the display part 6. Furthermore, in the case the display part 6 is magnified after installation of a lens 11 at the peephole 3b, the display part 6 can be magnified by the use of the lens 11 of the short focus distance more clearly. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

38 SWITCH ARRANGEMENT EP04798348.1 2004-11-01 EP1697174B1 2008-03-05 KEENAN, Patrick, Nissan Technical Ctr. Europe Ltd.
A switch arrangement (30) for controlling the operation of a plurality of electrically operable devices has first and second switches (32, 34), each of which is operable between a plurality of switch states (42a, 42b, 44a, 44b; 38a-38d, 40a-40d). The arrangement is such that actuation of the first switch (32) operates a first one of said electrically operable devices when the second switch (34) is in a first one of its states (42a), and actuation of the second switch (34) operates a second one of said electrically operable devices when the first switch (32) is in a first one of its states (38a). The first and second switches (32, 34) are actuable by moving them between latched and/or unlatched positions. The switch arrangement is particularly suitable for use in a vehicle, where the first switch (32) is movable into at least two latched positions thereof to select a respective one of a second set of electrically operable devices and wherein the second switch (34) is movable into at least two latched positions (42a, 42b) thereof to select a respective one of a first set of electrically operable devices. The first set of electrically operable devices may be a plurality of electrically operable windows of a vehicle and the second set of electrically operable devices may be a pair of electrically adjustable wing mirrors of a vehicle.

40 Dispositif de commande de fonctions muni d'un sélecteur et planche de bord de véhicule automobile équipée d'un tel dispositif EP03016394.3 2003-07-21 EP1437753A1 2004-07-14 Lacroix, Louis; Toussaint, Alain

Pour améliorer l'ergonomie et la fonctionnalité d'un dispositif sélecteur de commande de fonctions, en particulier pour une planche de bord de véhicule automobile, l'invention propose une configuration rotationnelle d'un dispositif de commande par combinaison de fonctions reconfigurables et de non reconfigurables.

Selon l'invention, un tel dispositif de commande de fonction (1) comprend au moins un couvercle (10), un sélecteur rotatif (14) déplaçable entre au moins deux positions par rapport au couvercle (10), une pluralité d'actionneurs (20) disposés sur le couvercle (10), certains au moins desdits actionneurs (20) pilotant des fonctions différentes pour au moins deux positions différentes du sélecteur (14), et des symboles (26) mobiles en rotation par rapport au couvercle (10) et dont le déplacement est lié à celui du sélecteur (14). Les symboles mobiles (26) sont entraînés indirectement par le sélecteur rotatif (14) de sorte que le rapport entre la course de déplacement en rotation du sélecteur rotatif (14), pour le passage d'une position à une autre, et la course de déplacement en rotation correspondante des symboles mobiles (26), est différent de 1.
