Switching device for a radio pushbutton, radio pushbutton, and method for generating a switching signal of a radio pushbutton

A wireless switch comprising:

• a switching device comprising an actuating mechanism for receiving a mechanical energy introduced into the switching device during a switching operation, wherein the switching device with the actuating mechanism and with an energy conversion device comprises a mechanically connectible switching mechanism;
• wherein the energy conversion device converts the mechanical energy to the electrical energy for transmitting a switching signal;
• a circuit carrier electrically connected to the energy conversion device that includes:
• a signal output device with radio electronics for transmitting the switching signal;
• and
• at least one code contact that is actuated during the switching operation to provide a code signal;
• a housing comprising at least one housing element, wherein the housing receives the switching device, the energy conversion device and the circuit carrier;
• and
• a button for transmitting the mechanical energy to the actuating mechanism of the switching device;
• wherein the button is attached on the housing.

A method for producing a wireless signal from a switch, the method comprising:

• providing:
• an actuating mechanism configured to receive mechanical energy introduced into the switch during a switching operation;
• a switching mechanism mechanically connectible to the actuating mechanism that is actuated during the switching operation;
• an energy conversion device mechanically connectible to the switching mechanism configured to convert the mechanical energy to an electrical energy;
• and
• a circuit carrier electrically connected to the energy conversion device that includes:
• a signal output device with radio electronics for transmitting a switching signal;
• and
• at least one code contact that is actuated during the switching operation to provide a code signal;
• receiving mechanical energy via the actuating mechanism during a switching operation;
• in response to receiving the mechanical energy, transitioning the energy conversion device from a first stable condition to a second stable condition different from the first stable condition to thereby generate at least one electrical energy impulse;
• powering the signal output device using the at least one electrical energy impulse;
• and
• wirelessly communicating, by the powered signal output device, the wireless switching signal.
