Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2416337A2] The mechanism has rotatably mounted tilting element (20) including an actuation region on respective ends (26, 28) of the tilting element. Corresponding actuating force (F2) acts opposite to restoring force (F1) for releasing a corresponding tilting motion of the tilting element around tilting axes (KA1). A tilting element is rotatably supported, so that the tilting element includes the tilting axes at the ends and is operated depending on the actuating force, where the tilting axes are in active condition at the ends of the tilting element for actuating the restoring force. An independent claim is also included for a toggle switch engages an un-actuated initial position and two actuated switching positions.
