Definitions

  • the invention relates to a modular electrical switching device with a switching device, with an actuating element for actuating the switching device and with a housing body which accommodates the switching device and has a guide for the actuating element.
  • the spring device is designed as a molded plastic part, for. B. as an injection molded part. This offers the possibility of setting the desired spring characteristic without great effort by appropriate choice of material and shape.
  • the spring device is integrally connected to the housing body, ie that both the housing and the spring device are designed as a molded plastic part, which with regard to the Insulating properties of plastic also prove to be an advantage with regard to the switching device arranged in the housing body.
  • the spring device made of metallic spring material, for. B. spring bronze, is formed and is positively and / or non-positively fixed in the housing body.
  • the particular advantage of the invention is that the actuating element, which is held by the spring device in a non-positive or positive manner, can be adjusted during initial assembly so that a zero tolerance results and - connected with this - undesired switching is prevented.
  • the spring device, the housing body and the actuating element are integrally connected to one another.
  • the production of such a multi-purpose part from one piece means a further simplification of the assembly and a shortening of the assembly time.
  • the spring device is formed from wavy-shaped individual springs, which each act on the actuating element at a defined location. Instead, however, it may also be appropriate to screw the spring device out or to form spirally shaped individual springs, which also act on the actuating element at a defined location.
  • the switching device can be provided with an actuating element designed as a push button, sliding button or rocker button.
  • a particular advantage of the switching device according to the invention is that, due to the small size which is made possible by the design, the possibility is opened of arranging the switching device directly on printed circuit boards with the associated circuit arrangement.
  • a spring device 30 is used to hold and guide the actuating element 26, which, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 2, is integrally connected to the housing body 12 and is designed in a wave-like or meandering manner.
  • the actuating element 26 has, below its dome-like actuating surface, a projection 27 which, under pretension, engages in a recess 32 provided for this purpose in the spring device 30, with which it cooperates with frictional engagement.
  • this receptacle of the actuating element 26 in the spring device 30 which receptacle is configured like a press fit, the possibility is realized to set larger tolerances for the play compensation by maintaining the insertion depth once reached during assembly. This is based on the fact that, according to the invention, the holding force as a result of frictional engagement between the actuating element and the spring device is greater than their bending resistance.
  • this change can be carried out simply by changing the position of the pin-shaped extension relative to the spring device.
  • the spring device must be fixed in the area of the receptacle 32 for the duration of the setting.
