Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19703959C1] A switching device including a latching or breaker mechanism, including a switch lever (8) a pawl (7) and a latch (6) as a counter-bearing for the pawl which rotates at release (triggering) about its bearing axis and releases the switch lever (8) for actuating the contacts. A detent (10) is provided in the latching mechanism (1) and allows the pawl (7) at release or triggering to swing through but prevents it swinging back again, thus fixing the pawl (7) in a given position in which the handle (14) is held in an intermediate position between the ON-and OUT-position of the switching device, on account of the linkage.
