Selective switch for voice controlling

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To enable a driver at the wheel not to fail to pay his attention to the front, by providing an automobile with voice controlling selective switches corresponding to various kinds of loads, whereby the driver can confirmly selecting operations of the switches both visually and aurally. CONSTITUTION:In order to actuate one of loads 3 each of which has a load circuit for moving wipers of an automobile, or turning on lamps thereof, etc., a push- button 1d for a corresponding voice controlling selective switch 1 is depressed with a small force A to close one normally-opened contact 1h. As a result, a signal input from the contact 1h into a voice generator 2 is subjected therein to discrimination, and a corresponding load 3 is selected to transmit a voice representative thereof. After it has been ascertained that the voice corresponds to the selective switch 1 for the objective load 3, the push-button 1d for the mentioned switch 1 is depressed with a large force B to close the other normally-opened contact 1i and actuate the corresponding load 3. According to this arrangement, an operation of a switch can be easily ascertained even by a driver at the wheel.
