Date Feb. 16, 1984.A multipole key switch comprises switching chambers disposed next to each other are each provided with a movable contact bridge, which shortens a pair of contact fingers in each case in the turned on condition. Contact supports for supporting the contact bridges are formed at a cross-web of an actuating arm. Each switching chamber is provided with a restoring spring. The force of only two restoring springs can bring the key switch into its switched-off position.
