Abstract
Die Erfindung betrifft einen selbstjustierenden Stößelschalter, mit einem Gehäuse (3) zur Aufnahme wenigstens eines zu betätigenden Kontakts (7, 19), mit einem im Gehäuse verschiebbar geführten Betätigungselement (5, 27) zur Betätigung des wenigstens einen Kontakts (7, 19), welches von einem federnden Element (11) in einer aus dem Gehäuse herausgeschobenen Ruhestellung gehalten ist und welches einen im Gehäuse geführten Schieber (5) und einen mit diesem in Betätigungsrichtung verstellbar verbundenen Stößel (27) umfaßt, wobei der Stößel (27) erste Arretiermittel (45) aufweist, welche aus einer die Verstellung zwischen Stößel (27) und Schieber (5) ermöglichenden Winkelstellung (Verstellposition) durch eine Drehbewegung des Stößels (27) um dessen Längsachse um einen vorbestimmten Winkelbetrag mit zweiten Arretiermitteln (29a) des Schiebers in Eingriff bringbar sind (Arretierposition), wodurch eine Arretierung der Position zwischen Stößel (27) und Schieber (5) erreichbar ist. The invention relates to a self-adjusting plunger switch, with a housing (3) for receiving at least one contact (7, 19) to be actuated, with an actuating element (5, 27) slidably guided in the housing for actuating the at least one contact (7, 19), which is held by a resilient element (11) in a rest position pushed out of the housing and which comprises a slide (5) guided in the housing and a plunger (27) connected to it in an adjustable manner in the actuation direction, the plunger (27) first locking means ( 45), which can be brought into engagement with second locking means (29a) of the slide from a angular position (adjustment position) which enables the adjustment between the plunger (27) and slide (5) by rotating the slide (27) about its longitudinal axis are (locking position), whereby locking the position between the plunger (27) and slide (5) is noticeable.
