Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0284515A1] Switch of the type comprising a case (100) which carries at least one pair of electrical contacts (600, 650) and which houses a button (400) which can slide between a rest position and a working position so as to modify the state of connection of the electrical contacts, and a return spring (700) which urges the button (400) towards the rest position. According to the invention the pair of electrical contacts (600, 650) includes at least one element (640, 642) which can be moved transversely to the direction of sliding of the button (400) when the latter is moved in order to open or close the contacts. Moreover, a feeler (200) is associated with the button (400) and means (600, 650) are provided to ensure automatic relative positioning of the feeler (200) and of the button (400). <IMAGE>
