- the cooperating with the pivoting balls serve to define the preferred directions for the pivoting movement.
- an electrical switch in the manner of a joystick or cursor switch is shown, which has a movable by pivoting and moving in switching positions actuator.
- An additional, surrounding the actuator actuator is used for the actuation of the switch by turning.
- the actuator acts during pivoting with a cam track, in which a spring-loaded plunger engages together.
- this haptic-generating element is elaborately designed and requires a large amount of space.
- the invention has for its object to design the pivoting means and the displacement means and optionally the rotating means such that the ergonomics of the switch provided with high functionality is increased, but the switch is to get along with a small space.
- the actuating member is pivotable by means of the pivoting means in at least one preferred direction.

- the actuating member in the pivoting position and / or displacement position and / or rotational position simultaneously and independently operable.
- these types of actuation can be combined with one another as desired. This results in only a small footprint for the shaft together with the ball joint, which the switch is very small despite high functionality.
- the snap disc has an approximately central opening for the passage of the shaft, the sleeve surrounding the shaft for the ball joint o.
- the like which in turn a very compact arrangement is realized.
- the electric switch is used for cursor control on a display, then it makes sense that the actuating member by means of the pivoting means in at least two mutually perpendicular, in particular in eight preferred directions is pivotable.
- Swiveling means a sleeve with recesses, wherein the recesses in conjunction with ribs on the housing upper part produce the preferred directions during pivoting.
- the sleeve can still serve as a carrier for the haptic-generating element and create the way for the signaling.
- the angle for the pivoting of the upper housing part is limited in the manner of an end stop.
- the displacement means may comprise a further sleeve as a support for the haptic-generating element.
- switching elements For use in the electrical switch are a variety of switching elements, such as a switching mat, a switching film o. The like. Switching elements. Particularly preferred is an optical switching element.
- the optical switching element may be designed in the manner of a forked light barrier, in which a movable diaphragm engages.
- the switching element is located on a printed circuit board, which is arranged approximately in the middle of the housing, namely at the transition between the upper housing part and the lower housing part. As a result, a single circuit board for all switching functions is sufficient, which benefits both the compactness and cost-effectiveness.
- a gear is arranged on the shaft, which on the actuating member located opposite end of the shaft is located.
- the gear again engages a pinion on an increment ring.
- the increment ring cooperates with a light barrier as an optical switching element such that the light barrier generates pulses due to the rotational movement of the actuator.
- the switch manages despite high functionality with little space.
- the switch for tight spaces as given in the dashboard, the center console, the armrest o. The like. In the vehicle are suitable.
- the switch is error-prone and has a long service life.
- the switch according to the invention can thus be used advantageously in harsh environmental conditions, for example in motor vehicles.
- the switch has a good feel, for example, the switch has eight preferential directions for the actuator with low actuation paths and haptic feedback, which contributes to the increase in ergonomics.
- high functionality of the switch is easy to operate, for example, with the fingers of one hand, with incorrect operations are largely excluded.
