Abstract
Disclosed is a hand-held control (1) for furniture drives (81), comprising a touch-sensitive control panel section (3, 3a, 3b) that has a number of actuation surfaces (4). A method for detecting actuation of the hand-held control (1) is also provided. An electromotive furniture drive (81) is fitted with a hand-held control (1) of this type.

34. A method for detecting an actuation of a hand-held control, comprising the steps of:
-
applying an electric periodic test signal from at least one evaluation unit to at least one sensor surface of at least one detector; recording a response signal by means of a test signal modified by actuation of the at least one detector; evaluating the test signal thus obtained and producing a logic switching signal for detecting the actuation of the hand-held control. - View Dependent Claims (35, 36, 37, 38, 39)

40. An electromotive furniture drive for adjustment of a movable component of an item of furniture, said electromotive furniture drive comprising at least one hand-held control which includes at least one detector, and at least one control panel section having at least one actuation surface which cooperates with the at least one detector, and which is detected by applying an electric periodic test signal from at least one evaluation unit to at least one sensor surface of at least one detector, recording a response signal by means of a test signal modified by actuation of the at least one detector, evaluating the test signal thus obtained and producing a logic switching signal for detecting the actuation of the hand-held control.
