Abstract (en)

The short-stroke tactile switch comprises a tactile pressure point noticeable for the operator, a sensing element (10), and two redundantly arranged tactile micro-switch and a non-tactile micro-switch. The micro-switches are operated by the sensing element. The sensing element is comprised of a ball guide (60) and a support surface (40) so that the maximum stroke movement of the sensing element for operating the micro-switch is limited.
