A switch is disclosed including an operating rocker button and at least one contact element which can be actuated by a radial deflection of the operating rocker button. The contact element can be actuated directly by the operating rocker button, or by the operating rocker button by a transmission element. As such, a locking function is provided via a projection on the transmission element or the operating rocker button, which co-operates with an elastic element.

A taximeter is disclosed which comprises a housing having a front side, an electronic computer, data memories, a buffer battery, a display arrangement, one of pushbuttons and keys for providing functional control and for calling up contents of at least one of the data memories which is assigned to the display arrangement, and a parametric and diagnostic contacting arrangement. The parametric and diagnostic contacting arrangement is accessible from the front side of the housing. The parametric and diagnostic contacting arrangement and the buffer battery are accessible through an aperture which is coverable by one of a lead-sealed lid and a cover and is provided at the front side of the housing.

Trip data information indicator

An apparatus for receiving a transportable card-shaped or disk-shaped data storage, which apparatus is arranged at the front wall of a device and the data storage can be brought into an operating position by it, the data storage being in the operating position in a parallel position relative to the front face of the respective device and is sunk in the front wall so as to be inaccessible. In particular, the apparatus includes a cover, which is supported at the front wall of the device so as to act like a rocker, a holding and contacting arrangement for a data storage being constructed at the inside of the device, as well as a printed circuit board which is fastened in the device so as to be stationary and is connected with the cover via a flexible conduction band exercising a springing effect.

A expandable housing for an electronic device allows additional modules to be received in a simple manner so as to build on a base module and which is suitable for use in a vehicle. The housing comprises a frame, in which provisions are made for receiving a printed circuit board, a base assigned to the frame and a cover, which base and cover are identically constructed, as well as a hood which is fastenable at the frame and serves to hold cables. The frame, cover and base are connected with one another by means of groove-and-tongue connections and are held together, in addition, by through-screws.

A datacard arrangement in an apparatus in which several datacards are used simultaneously, including a datacard receptacle designed to receive two datacards, and two datacards lying one on the other inserted into a data transmittal position in the datacard receptacle.

Multi-datacard arrangement

A mounting or carrier for data communications units configured as hand-held units suitable for heavy duty in a motor vehicle, and which permits simple handling of the hand-held units and affords a high functional security as far as the line connection and attachment is concerned. A head pin or lug is mounted to a flange surface on the carrier or support, which engages a keyhole-like aperture in the hand-held unit. A flexibly supported guidance part projects from a console molded at the carrier and cooperates with a recess in the hand-held unit. The electrical line connection points of the carrier are shielded by the guidance part when no hand-held unit is present thereon, and the guidance part additionally functions for actuating a switch.

An arrangement which provides an indication of the economy of motor vehicle operation includes a number of sensors for detecting different vehicle operating factors including engine speed, distances travelled by the vehicle, and the position of the engine throttle. An acceleration measuring device is coupled to the distance sensor to determine the vehicle acceleration. Circuitry coupled to the sensors including the acceleration measuring device provides operating condition values in the form of code word elements. This circuitry includes a first comparator for setting a first set of threshold values so that the code word elements provided by the first comparator each correspond to a certain engine speed range. The circuitry also includes a second comparator operative to set a second set of threshold values so that the code word elements provided by the second comparator each correspond to a certain acceleration range. Likewise, the third sensor operates to provide code word elements each of which corresponds to a particular range of positions of the engine throttle. A matrix combines all the code word elements into a combined code word which is then evaluated and accorded a particular rating. At least one signal transmitter is provided for alerting the vehicle operator when the rating of the combined code word is such as to call for a change of operating behavior, e.g., a shift of gears.
