Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Drehschaltvorrichtung, insbesondere zur Bedienung elektromechanischer Geräte, mit einer um eine Drehachse (3) drehbaren Handhabe (1) zur Betätigung der Drehschaltvorrichtung und einem Gehäuse (2) zur lösbaren Anbringung der Handhabe (1). Die erfindungsgemäße Drehschaltvorrichtung ist konstruktiv besonders einfach aufgebaut, da keine separaten Verbindungsteile erforderlich sind. Erfindungsgemäß ist die Handhabe (1) zur Abnahme vom Gehäuse (2) gegenüber dem Gehäuse (2) in seitlicher Richtung zur Drehachse (3) der Drehschaltvorrichtung verschiebbar.

The invention relates to a rotary switching device, in particular for operating electromechanical devices, with a handle (1) which can be rotated about an axis of rotation (3) for actuating the rotary switching device and a housing (2) for releasably attaching the handle (1). The rotary switching device according to the invention is structurally particularly simple, since no separate connecting parts are required. According to the invention, the handle (1) for removal from the housing (2) can be displaced in relation to the housing (2) in the lateral direction to the axis of rotation (3) of the rotary switching device.
