Abstract (en)

[origin: US2002040843A1] The invention relates to a control device for a contactor, in particular for scrolling through a menu which allows appliances in a motor vehicle to be controlled. It comprises a control key (36) mounted pivoting on a support, at least one contactor (4), and a tie bar (20, 22) interposed between the key (36) and each contactor (4). A, preferably transparent, transmitter (16) is formed by a supporting structure (18) and at least one tie bar (20, 22). The tie bars are connected to the supporting structure by at least one flexible arm so as to transmit to the contactor an action performed on the key (36). The supporting structure (18) serves as a support and a pivot for the control key (36).
