Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0515943A2] A push-button switch and, especially, a switching module consisting of a pot-shaped housing (2) and a lifting plunger (8) moving axially therein are proposed, in which the lifting plunger (8) has a control cam (27) for a latching spring (22). The latching spring (22) consists of a base part (23) in the form of a circular ring and of at least one vertical, sprung limb (25) which is arranged parallel to the axis. When the lifting plunger (8) is operated, a pressure point is caused by the interaction of the control cam (27) and the limb of the latching spring (22). <IMAGE>
