Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008025341A1] The invention relates to an electric switch (1), particularly of the type of a micro and/or snap-action switch, having a contact system (3) comprising a displaceable switch contact and at least one fixed contact (5). The switch (1) further has a displaceable actuating element (7) for switching the contact system (3). An elastic element (8) cooperates with the switch contact and/or the actuating element (7) for the reset. The switch contact is configured as a sliding contact, and the fixed contact (5) is configured as a contact surface such that the sliding contact cooperates with the contact surface (5) during switching, particularly in that the sliding contact is displaced onto the contact surface (5), and/or away from the contact surface (5). The elastic element (8) is configured as a leaf spring coupled to the sliding contact.
