Operating device, steering wheel, motor vehicle and method thereto

摘要

A motor vehicle is provided with a steering wheel, in the spoke of which an operating device, in particular a modular multi-function operation device, for arrangement in a spoke of a motor vehicle steering wheel, that includes, but is not limited to an operating element that is rotatable about an axis of rotation, in particular a turn-push operating element for operation with turning and/or pushing, which is coupled to at least one sensor for generating a control signal. The axis of rotation is obliquely mounted with an angular contact bearing, so that the operating device is oriented projecting in radial direction and in axial direction and the axis of rotation is variable with respect to the inclined mounting with the angular contact bearing, so that a rocking function is realized. In addition, a method is provided for operating instruments of a motor vehicle.

1. A modular multi-function operating device for arrangement in a spoke of a motor vehicle steering wheel, comprising:
a sensor that is configured to generate a control signal; a turn-push operating element that is coupled to the sensor, rotatable about an axis of rotation, and configured to operate by turning; and an angular contact bearing configured to obliquely mount the axis of rotation so that the turn-push operating element is oriented projecting in a radial direction and in an axial direction and the axis of rotation is variable with respect to an inclined mounting with the angular contact bearing for realization of a rocking function.
