Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012160106A1] In the case of an operator control part (1) for a furniture control means for controlling an electrically adjustable item of furniture, the operator control part (1) comprises a flat sensor module (20) with a large number of proximity-sensitive sensor areas (20a to 20t) which are arranged on the sensor module (20), and an operator control panel (10) for covering the large number of sensor areas (20a to 20t) wherein a set of switching areas (11 to 19) is marked on the operator control panel (10), and comprises a control module (30) which is designed to detect operation of one of the switching areas (11 to 19) on the basis of sensor signals which are output by the sensor areas (20a to 20t), and to generate an operating signal for the furniture control means on the basis of operation being detected. The sensor module (20) and the control module (30) are arranged in a housing (40) of the operator control part (1), wherein the operator control panel (10) forms a cover of the housing (40).
