Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0897186A2] The switch mechanism has a stationary contact (12) and a cooperating movable contact (11) carried by a contact arm (3) cooperating with a switch latch (5) with a rotatable switch crank (5b) and a contact position indicator (4c). The latter is provided by a switch lever (4) for locking the contact arm in the open position of the movable contact, released by the rotation of the switch crank. The indicator can be provided by an arm (4c) of the switch lever with a display field (27) visible through an opening (28) in the switch housing.
