  • Publication number: 20160036437
    Abstract: In the case of a multifunctional switch (11) with a panel (14), of injection-moulded ceramic for example, coaxially surrounded by a frame (18), the panel (14) and the frame (18) are produced as separate components, which however are connected to one another in a material-bonding and/or form-fitting manner to form one part by means of an annular light guide (20) that particularly radiates axially parallel and is created by material being injected, introduced by flooding or poured into a gap (17) located between them or is adhesively cemented therein.

  • Publication number: 20150251590
    Abstract: A handle with haptically high-quality surfaces has decorative and functional symbols above, in or beneath a disc, with a corona-like emission being brought about by the end region of a light-conducting hollow cylinder along the peripheral region of said disc, continuously or intermittently circumferentially, which hollow cylinder is fed from a lighting distribution board parallel to the disc. At the same time, the hollow cylinder radiates centripetally into the peripheral region in so far as it comprises light-conducting material. Apertures representing symbols in the disc can contain fibre optic conductors, which are likewise connected to the lighting distribution board.
