Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19629006A1] The invention concerns a quick-break switch in which, for switching-over purposes under the spring force (1) of a switching element, the two individual wedge faces (15, 16) of a wedge surface are felt. In order to render the pressure point more perceptible, in particular when the switch is manually operated, the wedge faces (15, 16) are curved. These curves can also help to improve the switching behaviour of the switch with respect to the switching process and contact-making.
