Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1096524A2] The rotary switch has a rotatable knob (1) which is rotated about an axis for operation of a rotary switching device. The knob is snap-fitted to a housing (2) from which it can be released by deflecting it sidewards relative to the housing. The releasable coupling between the knob and the housing is provided by a spring edge (4) and an opposing rigid edge (5) projecting outwards at the base of the knob, for engaging behind the opposing side edges of a locating opening provided by the housing.
