Switching device for e.g. steering wheel, has actuator, switching element and display that are combined into touch-screen such that contact of touch screen releases switching signal

摘要

The device has a display (50) e.g. LCD, arranged at an actuator (30), and a switching element (40) operated by the actuator. A switching signal is produced for a control unit (15) by using the switching element. The actuator, switching element and the display are combined into a touch-screen (60) such that a contact of the touch screen releases the switching signal. The actuator forms a surface (61) of the touch screen such that the contact of the surface of the screen releases the switching signal.
