Abstract

Drehschaltervorrichtung für elektrische Haushaltsgeräte. Der Außenumfang eines durch eine Öffnung (28) einer Blende (14) versenkbaren Knebels (22) hat ungleiche radiale Achsabstände von einer Drehachse (24) in gleicher Weise wie die Öffnung (28), so daß der Knebel (22) nur in einer Null-Drehstellung durch die Öffnung (28) passt, jedoch in keiner anderen Drehstellung.

Figure 00000001
Rotary switch device for electrical household appliances. The outer circumference of a toggle (22) which can be retracted through an opening (28) of a diaphragm (14) has unequal radial center distances from an axis of rotation (24) in the same way as the opening (28), so that the toggle (22) only in one zero - Rotation position through the opening (28) fits, but in no other rotation position.
