Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0407949A2] 2. In push-button switches with cam-linked latching, in which the high and low position of the push-button is provided by means of a latching element which engages with a latching link, in order to create a latching device which allows a push-button movement which is less than the latching element movement to be achieved it is proposed according to the invention to provide a driving device (10, 11, 15, 16) for the latching element 8 which ensures that the latching element 8 is driven in the opposite direction with respect to the push-button guide direction. 3. In consequence, the push-button movement can be reduced by more than half while maintaining the latching element movement constant with respect to traditionally known latching devices in which the latching element movement corresponds to the push-button movement. <IMAGE>
