Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0458711A1] The present invention relates to a [lacuna] comprising a casing (1), a control button (12), a control rod (21) which can move under the action of the control button (12), a rocking component (25) mounted pivotably on the rod (21). This rocking component includes a lug (31) which bears on a stop (32) mounted on a bimetallic strip (33) when the rod (21) and the rocking component (25) are together displaced downwards under the action of the control button (12). This downwards displacement of the rocking component (25) causes its pivoting owing to the bearing of the lug (31) on the stop (32). The pivoting of the rocking component (25) causes the pivoting of the contact support (42) in order to bring it into the opening or closing position of the electrical contacts (47, 47'). <IMAGE>
