Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3742462A1] A switching device (2) comprises at least two actuators (5.1, 5.2, 5.3) for actuating an action of a medical apparatus (1), several switch units (6.1', 6.2', 6.3', 6.1", 6.2", 6.3"), and several output channels (9, 9', 9") configured to transmit an output signal. A first switch unit (6.1', 6.2', 6.3') and a second switch unit (6.1", 6.2", 6.3") are respectively assigned to one of the actuators (5.1, 5.2, 5.3), and the actuators (5.1, 5.2, 5.3) are configured to actuate the switch units (6.1', 6.2', 6.3', 6.1", 6.2", 6.3") upon one actuating motion. The switching device (2) is configured such that the first and second switch unit (6.1', 6.2', 6.3', 6.1", 6.2", 6.3") assigned to one of the actuators (5.1, 5.2, 5.3) are connected to different output channels (9, 9', 9"), and the output signal of the output channel (9, 9', 9") is defined by switching states of the switch units (6.1', 6.2', 6.3', 6.1", 6.2", 6.3") connected to the output channel (9, 9', 9").
