Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen tragbaren Speicher zum Aufnehmen, Speichern und Abgeben von Informationen.The invention relates to a portable memory for Record, store and share information.

Derartige tragbare Speicher sind für vielfältige Anwendungszwecke auf dem Markt vorhanden. Bekannt sind beispielsweise Magnetkarten, mittels denen eine Tür geöffnet werden kann. Magnetkarten dienen auch zum Betätigen von Bankomaten. In der Regel sind auf einem entsprechenden Magnetstreifen Informationen über die Person des Benutzers gespeichert. Änderungen dieser Informationen können nur über spezielle Magnetstreifenbeschrifter vorgenommen werden.Such portable storage devices are versatile Applications available on the market. Are known for example magnetic cards, by means of which a door can be opened. Magnetic cards are also used for Operate ATMs. Usually are on one corresponding magnetic stripe information about the person saved by the user. Changes to this information can only with special magnetic stripe labelers be made.

Im eigentlichen Sinn ist auch jeder Schlüssel für ein Schloß ein tragbarer Speicher, da er beispielsweise durch die Anordnung der Zacken, Schlüsselbohrungen od. dgl. Informationen beinhaltet, welche zum Lösen eines Schlosses notwendig sind. In the true sense, every key is also for one Locked a portable storage, for example, by the arrangement of the prongs, key holes or the like. Includes information on how to unlock a lock are necessary.  

Ferner gibt es im alltäglichen Leben eine Vielzahl von Arbeitselementen, die auf individuelle Anforderungen einer Person eingestellt werden müssen. Nur beispielhaft wird hier auf einen PKW verwiesen, in welchem bei Antritt einer Fahrt eine Reihe von Sitzverstellungen, Gurt- und Außenspiegeleinstellungen vorgenommen werden müssen. Dies geschieht heute noch durch individuelle Einstellung des Benutzers bei jeder Einzelfahrt. Eine Teilabhilfe wurde hier in der Vergangenheit durch die Einrichtung einer Memory-Taste für die Sitzverstellung geschaffen. Allerdings muß zum einen diese Memory-Taste durch den Benutzer gedrückt werden, zum anderen kann es hier zu einer Bedienung einer falschen Taste kommen, wobei der Benutzer unangenehm gegen das Lenkrad gedrückt wird. Deshalb sind diese Memory-Tasten nicht ganz ungefährlich.Furthermore, there are a multitude of in everyday life Work elements based on individual requirements of a Person must be hired. Will only be exemplary here referred to a car in which one starts Ride a range of seat adjustments, seat belt and Outside mirror settings must be made. This still happens today through individual adjustment of the User on every single trip. Partial remedy was here in the past by setting up a Memory button created for seat adjustment. Indeed on the one hand, this memory key must be used by the user on the other hand it can become one here Operation of a wrong button come up, the user is pressed uncomfortably against the steering wheel. That is why these memory keys are not entirely safe.

Als weiteres Beispiel soll auf einen Büroalltag verwiesen werden. Die ersten Tätigkeiten einer Person, die ein modernes Büro betritt, sind auf das Einschalten des Lichtes, des Kopierers, des Fileservers und der Kaffeemaschine gerichtet. All dies sind Einzelhandlungen, die sich jeden Morgen wiederholen und deren Zeitaufwand sich somit in erheblichem Maße summiert.As another example, reference should be made to everyday office life become. The first activities of a person, the one entering the modern office are on switching on the Light, the copier, the file server and the Coffee machine directed. All of these are individual acts, that repeat themselves every morning and their time expenditure thus adds up to a considerable extent.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen tragbaren Speicher der o.g. Art zu entwickeln, mittels dem diese Einzeltätigkeiten vermieden werden.The present invention is based on the object a portable memory of the above Kind of develop by means of which these individual activities are avoided.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe führt, daß der Speicher Informationen über Einstellungen von Arbeitselementen bezogen auf individuelle Anforderungen einer Person enthält.To accomplish this task, the memory Information about settings of work items based on individual requirements of a person contains.

Das heißt, daß in diesem Speicher Informationen enthalten sind, die zu einer Ausrichtung von Arbeitselementen auf eine bestimmte Person hin führen. Damit derartige Informationen sowohl in einen Speicher eingelesen als auch dort gespeichert und wieder aus einem Speicher ausgelesen werden können, soll mit dem Speicher ein Sensor verbunden sein, über den die Arbeitselemente mit dem Speicher kommunizieren bzw. über den die Arbeitselemente angesprochen werden können.This means that this memory contains information are leading to an alignment of work items lead a certain person there. So that  Information both read into a memory as well stored there and read out again from a memory a sensor should be connected to the memory be over which the working elements with the memory communicate or via which the work elements can be addressed.

Damit derartige Informationen in dem Speicher verbleiben, muß dem Speicher ferner eine Speichertaste zugeordnet werden, so daß es beispielsweise auch möglich ist, vorhandene Speicherinformation zu löschen und durch neue Speicherinformationen bei einer gewünschten anderen Einstellung der Arbeitselemente zu ersetzen.So that such information remains in the memory, a memory key must also be assigned to the memory so that it is also possible, for example, delete existing storage information and add new one Store information at a desired other Setting of work elements to replace.

Als Speicher können alle bekannten Speichermedien in Betracht kommen, wie beispielsweise Magnetstreifen, Speicherchips usw. Hier soll dem erfinderischen Gedanken keine Grenze gesetzt sein. Das gleiche gilt auch für die Anwendung eines derartigen Speichers oder seine Anordnung. Es sind derartig viele Anwendungsfälle denkbar, daß eine Aufzählung in dem vorliegenden Rahmen nicht möglich ist.All known storage media can be stored in Such as magnetic stripes, Memory chips etc. Here is the inventive idea there is no limit. The same applies to the Use of such a memory or its arrangement. There are so many possible applications that one Enumeration is not possible in this context.

Nur als Beispiel soll auf die Verwendung eines derartigen Speichers für die Einstellung von Arbeitselementen in einem Fahrzeug hingewiesen werden. Jedem Autofahrer ist es bekannt, daß er vor dem Antritt einer Fahrt eine Vielzahl von Arbeitselementen in und an seinem Fahrzeug einstellen sollte. Alle diese Informationen können ganz konkret auf den einzelnen Fahrer bezogen in dem Speicher enthalten sein. Damit die richtige Einstellung der Arbeitselemente vor Antritt der Fahrt vorgenommen wird, sind diese Arbeitselemente ebenfalls mit einem Datenüberträger und -empfänger verbunden, der hier generell als Sensor bezeichnet wird. Dieser Sensor gibt beim erstmaligen Speichern der gewünschten Einstellungen seine Informationen in den Speicher ein, die dort festgehalten werden. Danach empfängt er jedes Mal, wenn er mit dein Speicher bzw. dessen Sensor in Kontakt gerät, die Informationen aus dem Speicher, so daß die Einstellungen der Arbeitselemente überprüft bzw. geändert werden können.The use of such is only intended as an example Memory for setting work items in one Vehicle. It is every motorist announced that he started a variety before starting a trip of working elements in and on his vehicle should. All of this information can be specific the individual driver related contained in the memory his. So that the correct setting of the work elements before the start of the trip, these are Work elements also with a data transmitter and receiver connected, which is generally used here as a sensor referred to as. This sensor gives the first time Save the desired settings his information into memory that are held there. After that it receives every time it uses your memory or its  Sensor comes into contact, the information from the Memory so that the settings of the work items can be checked or changed.

Bei einem Auto bietet es sich an, beispielsweise im Lenkradschloß einen Sensor vorzusehen, über den die gewünschten Einstellungen auf den Speicher übertragen werden können. Zur Einstellung der Arbeitselemente soll der Fahrer auf dem Fahrersitz sitzen und eine Fahrposition einnehmen können. Deshalb ist hier das Lenkradschloß der geeignete Platz.For a car, it makes sense, for example in the Steering wheel lock to provide a sensor through which the transfer the desired settings to the memory can be. To adjust the work elements, the Driver sitting in the driver's seat and a driving position can take. That's why the steering wheel lock is here suitable place.

Dagegen sollte ein zweiter Sensor im Türschloß vorhanden sein, wobei der zweite Sensor jedes Mal beim Einstecken des Autoschlüssels in das Türschloß eine Überprüfung bzw. Veränderung der Einstellung der Arbeitselemente vornimmt. In diesem Fall kann der Fahrer dann bereits Platz auf einem individuell für ihn eingestellten Fahrersitz nehmen. In contrast, there should be a second sensor in the door lock with the second sensor each time the plug is inserted Car key in the door lock a check or Changes the setting of the work elements. In this case, the driver can already have space on one take the driver's seat individually adjusted for him.  

Weitere Vorteile, Merkmale und Einzelheiten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele sowie anhand der Zeichnung; diese zeigt inFurther advantages, features and details of the invention result from the following description more preferred Exemplary embodiments and with reference to the drawing; these shows in

Fig. 1 eine Draufsicht auf einen erfindungsgemäßen Autoschlüssel; Figure 1 is a plan view of a car key according to the invention.

Fig. 2 eine schematisch dargestellte teilweise Innenansicht eines Kraftfahrzeuges. Fig. 2 is a schematically shown partial interior view of a motor vehicle.

Ein erfindungsgemäßer Autoschlüssel R weist gemäß Fig. 1 einen Schlüsselbart 1 und einen Barthalter 2 auf. Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Barthalter 2 gehäuseartig aufgebaut, wobei der Bart 1 mit dem Barthalter 2 über einen Drehbolzen 3 verbunden ist. Gegen die Kraft eines Kraftspeichers kann der Bart 1 um den Drehbolzen 3 gedreht und in dem Barthalter 2 versenkt werden. Eine derartige Verbindung ist jedoch nicht zwingend notwendig.According to FIG. 1, a car key R according to the invention has a key bit 1 and a beard holder 2 . In the present exemplary embodiment, the beard holder 2 is constructed in the manner of a housing, the beard 1 being connected to the beard holder 2 via a pivot pin 3 . The beard 1 can be rotated about the pivot pin 3 and countersunk in the beard holder 2 against the force of an energy store. However, such a connection is not absolutely necessary.

Am Bart 1 ist ferner ein Sensor 4 erkennbar, der über entsprechende Verbindungsleitungen 5 mit einem Speicher 6 im Inneren des Barthalters 2 in Verbindung steht. Der Speicher 6 ist handelsüblich und dient zur Speicherung von Informationen, welche über den Sensor 4, der ebenfalls handelsüblich ist, übermittelt werden. Dabei ist der Speicher 6 nichtflüchtig.A sensor 4 can also be seen on the beard 1 , which is connected to a memory 6 inside the beard holder 2 via corresponding connecting lines 5 . The memory 6 is customary in the trade and is used to store information which is transmitted via the sensor 4 , which is also customary in the trade. The memory 6 is non-volatile.

Erfindungsgemäß sollen in dem Speicher 6 Informationen über Einstellungen von Arbeitselementen bezogen auf individuelle Anforderungen einer Person gespeichert werden, wobei der Speicher 6 über den Sensor 4 sowohl als Empfänger als auch als Sender dienen soll. Als Anwendungsbeispiel soll nachfolgend die Funktion des Autoschlüssels R in Bezug auf einen PKW beschrieben werden. According to the invention in the memory 6 to store information based on settings of work items to individual requirements of a person, wherein the memory is to serve 6 over the sensor 4, both as receiver and as transmitter. As an application example, the function of the car key R in relation to a car will be described below.

Es ist bekannt, daß in einem PKW bezogen auf die individuellen Anforderungen des Fahrers verschiedene Arbeitselemente vor dem Betrieb des PKWs eingestellt werden müssen. Hierzu gehört insbesondere die Neigung der Sitzfläche und der Rückenlehne, die Höhe der Sitzfläche und der Abstand der Sitzfläche von entsprechenden Betätigungspedalen. In Fig. 2 ist hierzu ein Sitz 7 schematisch dargestellt, der seitlich eine Leiste 8 mit Knöpfen 9 zur Sitzverstellung aufweist. Diese Knöpfe 9 sind jeweils über Leitungen 10 mit einem Lenkradschloß 11 verbunden, in welchem der Autoschlüssel R steckt.It is known that in a car based on the individual requirements of the driver, various work elements must be set before the car is operated. This includes, in particular, the inclination of the seat and the backrest, the height of the seat and the distance of the seat from the corresponding actuation pedals. In Fig. 2, a seat 7 is shown schematically for this purpose, which has a strip 8 with buttons 9 on the side for seat adjustment. These buttons 9 are each connected via lines 10 to a steering wheel lock 11 in which the car key R is inserted.

Des weiteren sind zwei Außenspiegel 12 und 13 über entsprechende Leitungen 14 und 15 mit dem Lenkradschloß 11 verbunden.Furthermore, two exterior mirrors 12 and 13 are connected to the steering wheel lock 11 via corresponding lines 14 and 15 .

Ein weiteres Element, welche in den heutigen modernen PKWs eingestellt werden sollte, ist die Höhe des Sicherheitsgurtes. Dies gilt vor allem für einen Gurtteil 16, der quer über Brust und Schulter des Fahrers verläuft. Seine Anlenkung 17, die in vielen Fällen sowohl in Höhe als auch in Fahrtrichtung verstellbar ist, soll über eine Leitung 18 ebenfalls mit dem Lenkradschloß 11 verbunden sein.Another element that should be set in today's modern cars is the height of the seat belt. This applies above all to a belt part 16 which runs across the driver's chest and shoulder. Its articulation 17 , which in many cases can be adjusted both in height and in the direction of travel, should also be connected to the steering wheel lock 11 via a line 18 .

Es versteht sich von selbst, daß die Verbindung immer zwischen dem Lenkradschloß 11 und den entsprechenden Steuereinrichtungen für die Arbeitselemente erfolgt. Diese Steuerelemente können an Elektromotoren od. dgl. Antrieb angeordnet sein oder, wie insbesondere bei der Sitzverstellung, in einem separaten Kasten vorgesehen werden.It goes without saying that the connection always takes place between the steering wheel lock 11 and the corresponding control devices for the working elements. These control elements can be arranged on electric motors or the like drive or, as in particular in the case of seat adjustment, can be provided in a separate box.

Weitere Einstellungen von Arbeitselementen bezogen auf individuelle Anforderungen sind denkbar, wie beispielsweise die Höhe des Lenkrades, der Nackenstütze, eine Scheinwerferneigung od. dgl. Additional settings of work items related to individual requirements are conceivable, such as the height of the steering wheel, the headrest, one Headlamp tilt or the like  

Die Funktionsweise der Erfindung ist folgende:The operation of the invention is as follows:

Beim erstmaligen Betrieb des PKW durch seinen Besitzer steckt dieser seinen Schlüssel R in das Lenkradschloß 11. Danach stellt er entsprechend seinen Anforderungen sämtliche Arbeitselemente ein, wobei entsprechende Signale zu einem nicht näher gezeigten Sensor im Lenkradschloß 11 abgegeben werden. Dieser Sensor steht direkt mit dem Sensor 4 in Verbindung. Über den Druck von beispielsweise einer Speichertaste 19 an dem Barthalter 2 werden die vorgenommenen Einstellungen der Arbeitselemente in dem Speicher 6 festgehalten.When the car is operated for the first time by its owner, he puts his key R in the steering wheel lock 11 . Then he sets all working elements according to his requirements, with corresponding signals being emitted to a sensor (not shown) in the steering wheel lock 11 . This sensor is directly connected to sensor 4 . The settings made for the working elements are recorded in the memory 6 by pressing, for example, a memory button 19 on the beard holder 2 .

Wird bei einer nächsten Fahrt der PKW von einer anderen Person betrieben, muß diese andere Person wiederum die Arbeitselemente auf ihre individuellen Anforderungen einstellen.The next time the car is driven by another Operated person, this other person must in turn Work elements based on your individual requirements to adjust.

Benutzt dann später wieder die erste Person den PKW, so erfolgt bereits beim Einstecken des Autoschlüssels R in das Lenkradschloß 11 oder aber bevorzugt bereits beim Einstecken des Autoschlüssels in das Türschloß ein Einstellen der Arbeitselemente auf die individuellen Anforderungen des ersten Fahrers. Für diese bevorzugte Ausführungsform befindet sich in dem Türschloß ebenfalls ein entsprechender Sensor, welcher ein Zwilling zu dem Sensor im Lenkradschloß 11 ist. Auch dieser Türschloßsensor arbeitet mit dem Sensor 4 am Autoschlüssel R zusammen und übernimmt die Informationen aus dem Speicher 6, welche er dann bereits beim Aufschließen der Tür an die Arbeitselemente überträgt.If the first person then uses the car again later, the work elements are already adjusted to the individual requirements of the first driver when the car key R is inserted into the steering wheel lock 11 or, preferably, when the car key is inserted into the door lock. For this preferred embodiment there is also a corresponding sensor in the door lock, which is a twin to the sensor in the steering wheel lock 11 . This door lock sensor also works with the sensor 4 on the car key R and takes over the information from the memory 6 , which it then transmits to the working elements when the door is unlocked.
