Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen elektrischen Schalter (1) mit einem gegen eine Rückstellkraft, im wesentlichen linear bewegbaren Betätigungsorgan (7). Das Betätigungsorgan (7) wirkt kraft- und/oder formschlüssig auf einen Schaltring (9) ein. Der Schaltring (9) ist derart ausgebildet, daß der Schaltring (9) aufgrund der Einwirkung des Betätigungsorgans (7) lediglich eine begrenzte Linearbewegung ausführen kann und bei weiterer Einwirkung des Betätigungsorgans (7) eine Drehbewegung ausführt. Im Schalter (1) befindet sich eine aus einem drehbar gelagerten Kontaktelement (10) bestehende Kontaktbrücke, die in einer Schaltstellung Festkontakte (11) elektrisch überbrückt. Am Schaltring (9) und dem Kontaktelement (10) sind Mittel angeordnet sind, die durch die Linearbewegung des Schaltringes (9) miteinander in Wirkverbindung bringbar sind, so daß bei der Drehbewegung des Schaltringes (9) das Kontaktelement (10) in die Schaltstellung drehbar ist. Damit wirkt das Betätigungsorgan (7) über den Schaltring (9) auf die Kontaktbrücke zur Bewegung in die Schaltstellung ein.

The invention relates to an electrical switch (1) with an actuating member (7) that is essentially linearly movable against a restoring force. The actuating member (7) acts on a switching ring (9) in a non-positive and / or positive manner. The switching ring (9) is designed in such a way that the switching ring (9) can only carry out a limited linear movement due to the action of the actuating member (7) and performs a rotary movement when the actuating member (7) is further affected. In the switch (1) there is a contact bridge consisting of a rotatably mounted contact element (10), which bridges fixed contacts (11) electrically in a switch position. Means are arranged on the switching ring (9) and the contact element (10), which can be brought into operative connection with one another by the linear movement of the switching ring (9), so that the contact element (10) can be rotated into the switching position when the switching ring (9) rotates is. The actuating member (7) thus acts via the switching ring (9) on the contact bridge for movement into the switching position.
