  • a resilient motion transmitting device is attached to the respective actuating lever, which transmits the movements of the actuating lever to a mechanical actuating device, which selectively actuates the two switches or switching contacts in dependence on the respective direction of movement of the actuating lever or its position. Due to the resilient design of the movement transmission device and the indirect, overload-proof operation of the switch or switching contacts via the mechanical actuator can be achieved even in rough operation, especially in foot confirmation of the operating lever long-lasting reliability and consequently its maintenance freedom of the device. By the direction of movement or position of the operating lever dependent and selectively the switch or switch contacts actuated actuator can achieve a defined release force and also a cost-effective use of standard components in the switches or switch contacts.
  • the mechanical actuator via which the indirect switch operation is performed may include a plurality of operating members to be moved from a rest position to an operating position by the resilient motion transmitting means. These actuators can be resiliently biased to their home position (rest position).
  • the actuating members may be formed as spring elements, which are assembled into a plate-shaped piece, which is arranged fixed to the housing.
  • the motion transmitting means is made of a foam material and may be formed as a cylindrical body.
  • the actuating lever can be moved by the guide device preferably defined in four directions of movement predetermined. These directions of movement are each spaced at right angles and can lie in the installation of the device in a foot switch in the horizontal and vertical directions.
  • the movement transmission device can be fastened at the end or in the vicinity of the end of the actuating lever.
  • the actuating lever is in this case preferably movably mounted about a housing-fixed pivot point, which is arranged at a distance from the movement transmission device.
  • the embodiment shown in the figures of a foot switch has an actuating lever 1.
  • the actuating lever 1 is pivotable about a pivot point 10 which is fixed to the housing.
  • the housing consists of two housing parts, which are formed in the illustrated embodiment of an upper housing part 5 and a lower housing part 6. In the assembled state ( Fig. 2 ), the two housing parts 5 and 6 are connected by screw connections.
  • the pivot point 10 may be formed by a perforated ball, through which the actuating lever is inserted.
  • the pivot point 10 may be rotatably mounted on the housing, in particular the upper housing part 5 or in a guide device 2.
  • the guide device 2 is mounted in an overhead recess 16 of the upper housing part 5.
  • the guide device 2 includes a guide die with guide grooves 15 extending perpendicular to one another, along which a guide ball 13 which surrounds the actuating lever 1 is guided during the movement of the actuating lever 1.
  • the guide grooves 15 in the guide device 2 By the guide grooves 15 in the guide device 2, the directions of movement along which the actuating lever 1 can be operated, set.
  • the guide ball 13 is pressed by means of a biasing spring 12, which is supported against the actuating lever 1 by means of a spring stop 14 designed as a circlip in the guide grooves 15 of the guide device 2.
  • the biasing spring 12 may, as shown, as a coil spring, which comprises the actuating lever 1 may be formed.
  • the guide die of the guide device 2 may be formed as a spherical cap-shaped depression, in which the guide grooves 15 are perpendicular to each other.
  • the guide device 2 is located in the recess 16, which is formed as a recess on the upper side of the housing part 5. In this recess 16, the guide device is inserted positively.

Via a connector strip 17, which is provided on the printed circuit board 4 and in a correspondingly shaped housing recess during assembly ( Fig. 2 ), the electrical connection can be made with the device to be operated.
  • switch 3 At the bottom of the printed circuit board 4 are switch 3, which are formed in the illustrated embodiment as a microswitch. These microswitches 3 are arranged in pairs in four positions on the printed circuit board 4.
  • a plate-shaped actuator 8 is fixed to the underside of the upper housing part 5 in four located in the corners Fixierdazzlingen 19.
  • the distance from the attached to the underside of the printed circuit board 4 switches 3 is prepared by the printed circuit board is supported in the upper housing part 5 in a correspondingly shaped recess with acting on the edges of the printed circuit board bearing shoulders and fixed by a fixing plate 18 fixed to the housing ,
  • the mounting plate 18 has at its ends bores through which the screw connections, with which the two housing parts 5 and 6 are connected to each other, protrude. These screw connections fix at the corners in the fixing points 19, the plate-shaped actuator 8, which is arranged between the underside of the upper housing part 5 and the upper side of the lower housing part 6.
