Abstract:
The invention proposes an operator control element (1) for a vehicle, wherein the operator control element (1) has a plurality of operator control areas (12.1, 12.2, 12.3, 12.4, 12.5, 12.6) and comprises a region (2) which faces an operator and a region (3) which is located in a vehicle trim panel (6). The operator control element (1) is distinguished in that it is mounted such that it can pivot about a rotation axis (4).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a surface element (10) for an operating device of a motor vehicle, comprising a glass element (12), which has been produced in a deep-drawing process, with a plurality of surface areas (14), wherein a respective control input is carried out by touching same, and wherein the respective surface areas (14) are marked by corresponding structural elements (16) in the glass element (12) so they can be haptically felt. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a surface element (10).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating an operating device (10) of a motor vehicle, having the following steps: detecting a duration (tm) over which a touch-sensitive operating unit (12) is contacted by an object (18) and/or detecting a route (sm) which is traversed by the object (18) upon contacting the touch-sensitive operating unit (12); specifying an operating mode depending on the detected duration (tm) and/or the detected route (sm); specifying a pressure threshold (ps) depending on the specified operating mode; detecting a current position where the touch-sensitive operating unit (12) operated in the specified operating mode is contacted by the object (18); detecting a pressure (pm) applied to the touch-sensor operating unit (12) upon being contacted; ascertaining whether the detected pressure (pm) is greater than the specified pressure threshold (ps); and triggering a motor vehicle function (F) assigned to the detected current position only if the detected pressure (pm) is greater than the specified pressure threshold (ps). The invention further relates to an operating device (10) and to a motor vehicle comprising an operating device (10).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a control element (10) for a motor vehicle, comprising a control surface (14) for the input of user instructions for a component of the motor vehicle, which control surface comprises at least one surface structure element (20, 22) that can be identified by touch by a user, wherein the control surface (14) is made of glass and the at least one surface structure element (20, 22) is integral with the control surface (14).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating an operator control device (10) of a motor vehicle, comprising the following steps: sensing a number (nm) of objects (18, 20, 22, 24) by means of which a touch-sensitive operator control unit (12) is simultaneously touched; determining a position at which, in the case of only one touching object (18), the operator control unit (12) is touched by means of the one object (18), or defining a triggering object (24) and determining a position of the triggering object (24) on the touch-sensitive operator control unit (12) in dependence of respective touch signals (26, 28, 30), which, in the case of more than one touching object, are produced because of the simultaneous touching of the objects; specifying a pressure threshold value (ps) in dependence of the sensed number (nm) of the objects (18, 20, 22, 24); determining if a sensed pressure (pm) is greater than the specified pressure threshold value (ps); triggering a function (F) of the motor vehicle associated with the sensed position if the sensed pressure (pm) is greater than the specified pressure threshold value (ps).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a control element (30) having a touch-enabled surface (38), in which a paste-like material (48) is applied on a carrier plate (36). At least one raised structure element (32, 34) is formed by the paste-like material (48) on the carrier plate (36). For this purpose, a stencil (42) having inherent stiffness is arranged above the carrier plate (36) and the paste-like material (48) is pushed through at least one recess (44) in the stencil (42). The invention further relates to a control element (30).
