DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment example of the interior view of a motor vehicle 1. The motor vehicle 1 includes a servosystem shown schematically in FIG. 2, e.g. for operating a radio 11 of the motor vehicle 1, a CD player 12 of the motor vehicle 1, a navigation system 13 of the motor vehicle 1, an air conditioning system 14 of the motor vehicle 1 or a telephone 15 of the motor vehicle 1 or a telephone installed in the motor vehicle 1. The servosystem includes a display 4 showing a list of clickable menu items such as e.g. the stations ‘BAYERN 5’, ‘RADIO IN’, ‘BAYERN 1’, ‘BAYERN 2’ AND ‘BAYERN 3’ shown in FIG. 2, a rotary knob 3 mounted on a servopanel 2 and a control 10 for converting a rotation executed via a rotary knob 3 into a scrolling motion through a list.

The control 10 is connected to the radio 11, the CD player 12, the navigation system 13, the air conditioning system 14 and the telephone 15 via a bus system 16 for the transfer of data.

FIG. 3 shows the example of an embodiment of the rotary knob 3. The rotary knob 3 includes a rotary element 30 for operating the rotary knob 3. The rotary element 30 connected mechanically by way of a tenon 37 to a brake 35 for braking the rotary element 30 and to a rotary sensor 30 executed as an encoder for measuring the rotary motion of the rotary element 30. The brake 35 includes a ring 33 and a core 34 with a spool 32 to which electrical power can be supplied via a line 41.

The tenon 37 includes a number of recesses 38 or cogs which together with a spring 39 form the necessary number of mechanical detents that alternately increase the rotary momentum necessary for rotating the rotary element when rotating the rotary element 30. An example of an alternating increase of the rotary momentum necessary for rotating the rotary element 30 is shown in FIG. 4, with the reference 50 designating as value M the rotary momentum necessary for rotating the rotary element 30. The broken lines 51, 52 and 53 through the minimum values of the rotary momentum 50 indicate the center of the spaces between the recesses 38 or cogs. CW indicates a clockwise rotation and CCW indicates a counter-clockwise rotation.

The numbers shown under the rotary momentum 50 in FIG. 4 show the resolution of the rotary sensor 40, with the distance between two numbers being equal to the resolution of the rotary sensor 40. The resolution of the rotary sensor 40 is at least four times, in particular at least six times, with particular preference for at least eight times the number of mechanical detents per rotation of the rotary element 30. As shown in FIG. 4, the resolution of the rotary sensor 40 with regard to the example of embodiment at hand is eight times the number of mechanical detents per rotation of the rotary element 30. This example provides for twenty mechanical detents per rotation of the rotary element 30, making the resolution of the rotary sensor 40 160 per rotation.

In a particularly useful embodiment the rotation of the rotary element 30 can be measured with the help of the rotary sensor at a resolution of at least 450°/α per rotation of the rotary element, in particular 500°/α per rotation of the rotary element, with α being the smallest angle around which the rotary sensor can be rotated when the brake is activated, in particular because of the mechanical elasticity of the rotary know, with a momentum exerted on the rotary element of at least 0.15 Nm, in particular of at least 0.5 Nm.

Reference 31 in FIG. 3 designates a LED to illuminate the rotary knob 3, and reference 36 in FIG. 3 designates a mounting pin for mounting the rotary knob 3 in the motor vehicle 1.

The control 10 is connected to the brake 35 via a line 41 and to the rotary sensor 40 via a line bearing the reference 43. The control 10 allows converting the rotation of the rotary element 30 measured via the rotary sensor 40 into a scrolling motion through a list of clickable menu items, such as e.g. the stations ‘BAYERN 5’, ‘RADIO IN’, ‘BAYERN 1’, ‘BAYERN 2’ AND ‘BAYERN 3’ shown in FIG. 2. The control 10 also activates brake 35 when the last clickable menu item of the list is reached and when the first clickable menu item of the list is reached. In terms of the list of the radio stations ‘BAYERN 5’, ‘RADIO IN’, ‘BAYERN 1’, ‘BAYERN 2’ AND ‘BAYERN 3’ shown in FIG. 2 this means that the control 10 activates the brake 35 during the upward scroll when the clickable menu item ‘BAYERN 5’ is reached, and during the downward scroll when the clickable menu item ‘BAYERN 3’ is reached. By activating the brake 35, in one embodiment of the invention a braking momentum of at least 0.15 Nm, in particular of at least 0.5 Nm, with particular preference for at least 1 Nm can be generated with the brake, and in another embodiment of the invention a braking momentum of at most 2 Nm, in particular of at most 1.5 Nm can be generated with the brake.

A list of clickable menu items in the sense of the invention may also include e.g. a balance setting 61 shown by way of example in FIG. 5. In this example the individual increments of the balance setting 61, thus in this example of embodiment the possible positions of a slide designated by reference 50, correspond to the clickable menu items in the sense of the invention. With regard to the balance setting 61 shown by way of example in FIG. 5 provision has been made so that the brake 35 can be activated via the control 10 for a brake interval that lasts in particular between 50 ms and 500 ms, in particular between 150 ms and 300 ms and 250 ms in the embodiment example when the slide 60—irrespective from which direction it comes—reaches a central position designated with reference 622.

FIG. 6A, FIG. 6B, FIG. 6C and FIG. 6D show an example of embodiment of a method or process implemented in the control 10 for activating and deactivating the brake 35, whereby the process is subdivided for reasons of clarity in four parts shown respectively in FIG. 6A, FIG. 6B, FIG. 6C and FIG. 6D whose connection points are designated by circled numbers. In the example ‘brake on’ refers to the activation of the brake 35 and ‘brake off’ refers to the deactivation of the brake 35.

The variable ‘list’ refers to the number of the shown clickable menu items, thus with regard to FIG. 2 ‘5’ and with regard to FIG. 5 e.g. ‘19’. The variable ‘item’ refers to the index of a clickable menu item, thus e.g. ‘3’ for ‘BAYERN 1’ in FIG. 2. The variable ‘enc_count_per_detent’ refers to the number of encoder steps per detent, thus the enc_count_per_detent multiple of the resolution of the rotary sensor 40 per detent, i.e. in this example of embodiment ‘8’. The variable ‘magcount’ is a counter shown in FIG. 4 which—depending on the direction of the rotation—is counted up or down in steps corresponding to the resolution of the rotary sensor 40, whereby, when counting down and after reaching ‘0’, the beginning of the count is enc_count_per_detent-1, thus ‘7’, and when counting up and after reaching enc_count_per_detent-1, thus ‘7’, the count is ‘0’. The variable ‘encdir’ refers to the direction of the rotation. The variable ‘EncDetentPosition’ refers to position of the rotary element 30 defined by the detents and can take any value between 0 and the number of detents less 1.

The process according to FIG. 6A, FIG. 6B, FIG. 6C and FIG. 6D begins with an initialization step 70 in which e.g. the current values of the variables ‘list’, ‘item’ and ‘encdir’ can be read in, magcount is set equal to enc_count_per_detent-1 and the counter readout of the rotary sensor 40 and the variable ‘EncDetentPosition’ are read in.

Reference 71 refers to the question—whether—as e.g. in the menu shown in FIG. 5 for the central position 63—provision has been made for activating the brake 35 via the control for the duration of a brake interval when a certain clickable menu item of the list lying between the first clickable menu item of the list and the last clickable menu item of the list is reached. References 72, 73 and 77 refer to a step each in which the variable ‘encdir’ and the counter readout of the rotary sensor 40 are read in. Reference 74 refers to the question whether the rotary sensor 40 supplies a measured value that differs from the previous measured value by at least the resolution of the rotary sensor 40. References 75 and 76 refer to a step each in which the direction of the rotation that has been determined (step 75: CCW; step 76: CW) is sent to a module (of the control 10) for adjusting the display 4.

The variable ‘dummy’ shown in FIG. 6D is—if applicable—read in during the initialization step 70, whereby ‘dummy’ in the example of embodiment shown in FIG. 5 may be ‘1’ or ‘2’ depending on the position of the slide 60. The variable ‘firsttime’ shown in FIG. 6D is—if applicable—set to ‘1’ during the initialization step.

The control 10 may be designed in several components or may be implemented in one device. It is possible to allow for a selection of a clicked menu item e.g. by pressing the rotary element 30.
