Abstract (en)

[origin: US2005056530A1] A multi-way electric switch includes an articulated suspension having parallel first and second linkages for movably mounting an operator control. Each linkage has a pair of rockers which are articulately coupled at first ends to an intermediate part such that the linkages are orthogonally to one another. The rockers of the first linkage are stationarily coupled at second opposite ends which are free with respect to the articulated coupling between the first linkage and the intermediate part. The rockers of the second linkage support the operator control at second opposite ends which are free with respect to the articulated coupling between the second linkage and the intermediate part. The articulated coupling between the rockers of the first linkage and the intermediate part lies in a first axis plane, and the articulated coupling between the rockers of the second linkage and the intermediate part lies in a second different axis plane.
