Abstract

The aim of the invention is to provide a switching device (1) comprising a latching mechanism (3), said device being cheap to produce and easy to assemble (1). To this end, the construction is essentially formed from a three-part modular unit consisting of metallic material, and has a spring (15) which supports the back-latching of the latching mechanism, and forces which extend essentially in one plane in the latching mechanism.
